Psoriasis is a malignant skin disease characterized as keratinocyte hyperproliferation and aberrant differentiation. Our previous work reported that a bibenzyl compound, erianin, has a potent inhibitory effect on keratinocyte proliferation. To improve its poor water-solubility, increase anti- proliferation activity, and enhance the skin delivery, erianin loaded dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres (E/DMSNs) were employed.

In this work, DMSNs with pore size of 3.5 nm (DMSN1) and 4.6 nm (DMSN2) were fabricated and E/DMSNs showed pore-size-dependent, significantly stronger anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effect than free erianin on human immortalized keratinocyte (HaCaT) cells, resulting from higher cellular uptake efficiency. In addition, compared to free erianin, treatment with E/DMSNs was more effective in reducing mitochondrial membrane potential and increasing cytoplasmic calcium levels, which were accompanied by regulation of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) pathway. Porcine skin was utilized in the ex vivo accumulation and permeation studies, and the results indicated higher drug retention and less drug penetration in the skin when administered as the E/DMSNs-loaded hydrogel compared to the erianin-loaded hydrogel.ConlusionsThis work not only illustrated the further mechanisms of erianin in anti-proliferation of HaCaT cells but also offer a strategy to enhance the efficiency of erianin and the capacity of skin delivery through the DMSNs drug delivery systems.

Quinolone 006 is under development as an anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus quinolone antibiotic. A linear synthetic route was utilized to prepare the compound on a multi-kilogram scale with an overall yield of 71%. The process was optimized by controlling the temperature and the vacuum pressure. Examples of parameters examined in an effort to control the polymorphism of the 006 active pharmaceutical ingredient are described.

To study the hygroscopicity of cephalosporins, and get their critical relative humidity (CRH).The reagents were put in desiccators with different relative humidity.The moisture absorption was determined in different time.Then the curve chart of moisture absorption equilibrium was draw.The moisture absorption equilibrium time of cefathiamidine, cefazolin sodium, cefoperazone sodium, and cefuroxime sodium was 72 h.The CRH of them was 31%, 32%, 75%, and 73%, resp.The hygroscopicity study of cephalosporins can provide evidence of reasonable relative humidity for its production
