Abstract:
BackgroundThe proliferation of lens epithelial cellsLECs) following extracapsular cataract extraction is the biological basis of posterior capsular collagen and cataract formation.Disintegrin is certified to competitively bind the integrin with extracellular matrix and therefore prevent the posterior capsular opacification (PCO).But,its molecular mechanism is below understand.ObjectiveThe present study was to investigative the effects of disintegrin (kistrin) on the expression of collagen in lens posterior capsular.MethodsThe right eyes of 24 New Zealand white rabbits received transparent lens extracapsular enudeation and were randomly divided into two groups using random number table,0.2 ml of kistrin ( 80 mg/L) was intracapsularly injected at end of the operation in 12 eyes ( kistrin group) and the same volume of normal saline solution was used at the same way in other 12 operative eyes ( normal saline group).The PCO was graded in postoperative 1,3,5,7,14 days on Odrich' s criteria under the slit lamp.The lens section was prepared at 14 days and 3 months after operation.Haematoxylin and eosin stain was used to examine the proliferation of LECs in posterior capsule; Masson stain was used to observe the collagenous fiber formation in capsule bag,and the expression of collagen type Ⅳ was detected by immunochemistry.Results No significant difference in the number PCO eye was found in postoperative 14 days between normal saline group and kistrin group ( P =0.093 ).However,the eye numbers of 2-3 grades of PCO were significant increased in normal saline group compared with kistrin group in 1,2,3 months after operation( P=0.041,0.014,0.022).In the operative 14 days,staining and adhesion of LECs in posterior capsule were more in normal saline group than kistrin group,and the fibrocytes in capsule were evidently increased in normal saline group in 3 months.Masson stain certified that the blue stain was seen to be stronger and more in posterior capsule in normal saline group in comparison with kistrin group in 3 months after operation,and the immunochemistry showed that the gray values of collagen type Ⅳ in posterior capsule were significant lower in normal saline group compared with kistrin group in both 14 days and 3 months after operation (P=0.000,0.001 ).ConclusionsKistrin can suppresses the proliferation of LECs and collagen type Ⅳ on rabbit lens posterior capsular after transparent lens extracapsular enudeation.
