Krebs회로 산인 L-malic acid와 glycerol의 -OH와 -COOH의 몰비를 달리하면서 가교공중합체 poly(glycerol-co-malate)s를 합성하였다. 단량체 및 합성된 가교공중합체를 적외선흡수 분광기법에 의하여 확인하였으며, pH에 따른 수팽윤도를 측정하였다. 용액의 pH가 증가함에 따라 그 공중합체 수화겔의 수팽윤도는 증가하였으며, 각 pH에서 가교공중합체는 -COOH에 대한 -OH기의 몰비가 증가할수록 수팽윤도가 감소하였다. 용액의 pH 변화에 따른 가교공중합체의 가수분해도를 37${\circ}C$에서 조사한 결과 용액의 pH가 증가함에 따라 가수분해는 빨리 진행되었다. 모델 약물로는 diclofenac monosodium salt를 사용하여 pH에 따른 약물방출 거동을 조사한 결과 약물의 방출은 pH가 증가할수록 더 빨리 방출되었고, 합성된 가교공중합 에스테르는 미반응 카르복실기와 하이드록실기로 인해 pH에 의해 크게 영향을 받음을 확인하였다.

Background: Antinociceptive anti-inflammatory drugs have many adverse effects. The goal of this investigation is to study the probable anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of verapamil and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) in experimental rats. Methods: Adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups in the antinociceptive study, each containing 6 rats; the normal control group, which received saline (1 mL/kg); the diclofenac group, which received diclofenac sodium (5 mg/kg); the NAC group, which received NAC (125 mg/kg); and the verapamil group, which received verapamil (8 mg/kg). In the anti-inflammatory study, 5 groups were used, the 4 previous groups with the addition of an edema control group, received saline and were subjected to formalin test. Hot plate latency time was recorded for antinociceptive evaluation. Paw edema thickness and biochemical parameters were recorded for anti-inflammatory evaluation. Results: Administration of NAC showed significant prolongation of hot plate latency time at 1 hour when compared to the control group while verapamil showed a significant prolongation of hot plate latency time at 1 and 2 hours when compared to the control group and NAC group values. Administration of NAC and verapamil significantly decreased paw edema thickness at 2, 4, and 8 hours when compared to edema control values. Regarding biochemical markers, NAC and verapamil significantly decreased serum nitric oxide synthase, C-reactive protein, and cyclooxygenase-2 levels compared to the edema control value. In accordance, a marked improvement of histopathological findings was observed with both drugs. Conclusions: NAC and verapamil have antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects comparable to diclofenac sodium.

In this study, we tried to investigate whether diclofenac, acetaminophen, nimesulide, acetylsalicylic acid and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) significantly affect mucin release from cultured airway goblet cells. Confluent primary hamster tracheal surface epithelial (HTSE) cells were metabolically radiolabeled with $^3H$-glucosamine for 24 hr and chased for 30 min or 24 hr in the presence of each agent to assess the effects on $^3H$-mucin release. The results were as follows: (1) TNF-alpha significantly increased mucin release from cultured HTSE cells during 24 hr of treatment period; (2) However, diclofenac, acetaminophen, nimesulide and acetylsalicylic acid did not affect mucin release, during 30 min of treatment period. Basically, this finding suggests that non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) might not function as a mucoregulator in various inflammatory respiratory diseases showing mucus hypersecretion, although further studies are needed.

The aim of this study was to develop a stable enteric coated diclofenac sodium (DFS) tablets using Aqua-Polish E without using a subcoat. DFS uncoated tablets were manufactured through the non direct compression process. AquaPolish E white aqueous coating dispersion was used as enteric coating material. This film forming polymer is a mixture of selected polymethacrylic/ethylacrylate copolymers. The stability of the obtained enteric coated tablets was evaluated according to ICH guidelines. No signs of disintegration or cracking was observed when they placed in 0.1N HCl solution (pH1.2), but they were completely disintegrated within 10 minutes when they placed in buffered solution at pH6.8. Dissolution test was also conducted by placing tablets in 0.1 N HCl for 2 hours and then 1 hour in phosphate buffer at pH 6.8. Less than 0.9 % of drug was released in the acidic phase and up to 97% in the basic medium. These findings suggest that aqueous enteric coating with AquaPolish E system is an easy and economical approach for preparing stable DFS enteric coat without the use of a subcoating layer.

Aceclofenac, a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agent of a phenylacetic acid type, has been used for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthrits. Although the metabolic pathway of aceclofenc is relatively well-known in vitro, pharmacokinetic profiles of its three major or metabolites are still unclear in human. The present study was designed to investigate pharmacokinetic profiles of the metabolites of aceclofenac, and to evaluate the bioequivalence of the generic preparation of aceclofenac 100 mg tablet. Blood samples were serially collected for a period of 12 hours following a single oral administration of 100 mg aceclofenac in 20 healthy human volunteers. A simple protein precipitation with acetonitrile was employed to purify those substances from plasma. Aceclofenac, diclofenac, 4'-hydroxyaceclofenac and 4'-hydroxy-diclofenac in heparinized plasma were simultaneously measured with flufenamic acid, an internal standard, using HPLC coupled to a tandem mass spectrometer. Time courses of 4'-hydroxydiclofenac, diclofenac and aceclofenac plasma concentrations were clearly revealed, and the pharmacokinetic properties were analyzed. The 90% confidence intervals for the ratios of test/reference for log-transformed AUC and $C_{max}$ lie within 0.80-1.25.

This study demonstrates the oxidative degradation of pharmaceutical compounds during ozonation of surface waters in Ulsan. Diclofenac, carbamazepine, bezafibrate, and ibuprofen were selected as surrogate pharmaceutical compounds, and ozonation experiments were performed using raw waters collected from the Sayeon Dam and the Hoeya Dam in Ulsan. Diclofenac and carbamazepine which have high reactivity with molecular ozone showed higher removal efficiencies than bezafibrate and ibuprofen during ozonation. The addition of tert-butanol, a hydroxyl radical scavenger, increased the removal efficiencies of diclofenac and carbamazepine by increasing the ozone exposure. However, the oxidation of bezafibrate and ibuprofen was inhibited by the presence of tert-butanol due to the suppression of the exposure to hydroxyl radical. The elimination of the selected pharmaceuticals could be successfully predicted by the kinetic model base on the $R_{ct}$ concept. Depending on the experimental condition, $R_{ct}$ values were determined to be $(1.54{\sim}3.32){\times}10^{-7}$ and $(1.19{\sim}3.04){\times}10^{-7}$ for the Sayeon Dam and the Hoeya Dam waters, respectively. Relatively high $R_{ct}$ values indicate that the conversion of $O_3$ into $^{\cdot}OH$ is more pronounced for surface waters in Ulsan compared to other water sources.

본 연구는 내측반월판 절제와 전십자인대 단열로 유발된 랫드 골관절염 모델을 이용하여 계피 (Cinnamomum cassia Blume, 육계(肉桂)) 추출물의 연골손상 방지에 대한 효과를 평가하였다. 골관절염유발 랫드 48마리를 군당 8마리씩 6군으로 음성 대조군과 골관절염 대조군, 체중당 diclofenac 2 mg 투여군, 계피 추출물 25 mg과 50 mg, 100 mg 투여군으로 각각 분류하여 수술 1주 후부터 12주동안 투여하였다. 연골 소실과 관절의 불안정성은 계피 추출물과 diclofenac 투여군이 골관절염 대조군과 비교할 때 유의하게 감소하였다(p < 0.05). 병리조직학적 평가에서 연골의 퇴행은 계피 추출물 투여량에 따라 용량 의존적으로 개선됨이 확인되었다(p < 0.01). 계피 추출물 투여군에서 관절구조 퇴행성 변화의 감소와 Safranin-O 염색 정도의 용량 의존적인 증가를 보여 연골 퇴행이 억제됨을 확인하였다. Diclofenac이 골관절염 진행에 있어 활성화된 caspase-3와 절단된 poly(ADP-ribose) 중합효소에 유도된 세포자멸사 표지율 증가에 별 다른 영향을 주지 않았지만 계피 추출물 투여군에서는 이들 세포자멸 표지자에 대한 반응세포는 유의하게 감소되었다(p < 0.05). 그러나, diclofenac과 계피 추출물 투여군은 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine의 섭취에는 영향을 주지 않았다. 이러한 결과에서 계피추출물이 항염활성과 항세포 자멸 활성을 통해 관절연골에 보호 효과가 있음을 보였다.

Reofecoxib는 용량 의존적으로 cyclo-oxygenase-2를 선택적으로 억제한다. 골관절염 환자를 대상으로 하여 이중맹검, 무작위, Western Ontario and McMasters Universi-ties Osteoarthritis Index를 이용하여 평가한 결과, rofecoxib 12.5, 25 mg는 신체적 기능을 크게 향상시키는 것으로 보여졌다. 또한 diclofenac (50 mg, 1일 3회), ibuprofen (800 mg, 1일 3회), nabumetone(1500 mg, 1일 1회)와 유사한 임상효과를 나타내었다. Rofecoxib는 원발성 월경곤란증과 수술 후 치통에 효과적으로 억제하였으며 naproxen sodium과 ibuprofen과 같은 진통 효과를 보였다. Rofecoxib는 안전성 면에서 우수하며 가장 흔한 부작용은 설사, 두통, 오심과 상기도 감염증이다. Rofecoxib 12.5, 25, 50 mg/day를 투여한 골관절염 환자에게서 위장관계 부작용(천공, 궤양, 출혈)은 ibuprofen, diclofenac, nabumetone을 투여한 환자보다 훨씬 낮은 발생빈도를 나타내었다.

Nicolau syndrome is a rare complication of intramuscular injection consisting of ischemic necrosis of skin, soft tissue, and muscular tissue that arises locoregionally. The characteristic pattern is pain around the injection site, developing into erythema, a livedoid dermatitis patch, and necrosis of the skin, subcutaneous fat, and muscle tissue. Three patients were injected with drugs (diclofenac sodium, ketoprofen, meperidine) for pain relief. Three patients complained of pain, and a skin lesion was observed, after which necrosis developed on their buttocks. Each patient underwent debridement and coverage. The wound healed uneventfully. We report three cases of Nicolau syndrome in the buttocks following diclofenac intramuscular injection.
