3.Recent advances in diabetic cataract advanced glycation end products and its inhibitors
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2011;29(8):760-763
Diabetic cataract is an metabolic-type cataract. Its pathogenesis mechanism is not completely clear. Researches demonstrated that glycosylation plays an increasingly important role in the formation of diabetic cataract,and increased blood glucose level promote the pathogenesis and progression of diabetic disease by accelerate the glycosylation response. Therefore, more researches on advanced glycation end products(AGEs) and its inhibitors is being concerned. The advance in the study of AGEs concept, its effect on diabetic cataract formation, the influence of AGEs inhibitor on diabetic cataract are summarized in this article.

Objective To investigate the effect of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) on inter-leukin-2 (1L-2) and interleukin-2 receptor α (IL-2α) expressions in human T lymphocytes and its potential regulat-ing mechanism in vitro. Method Human T lymphocytes were isolated and suspended, the cells were cultured with 20 μg/mL phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in 5% CO_2 at 37 ℃, recombinant human HMGB1 (rhHMGB1, 0, 10, 100, 1000 ng/mL) was added with the PHA and cultures were centrifuged at 12 and 48 hours for cell collect-ing. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) amplification was perfomed to determine gene ex-pressions of IL-2, IL-2Rα. IL-2, sIL-2R protein levels in cell culture supematants were measured by ELIZA. Re-sults After coincubated with rhHMGB1 (10, 100, and 1000 ng/mL) for 12 hours, IL-2 levels in cell culture su-pernatants respectively were 0 . 064 ± 0. 017 μg/L, 0.076±0.033 μg/L, and 0.061 ±0.02 μg/L, which were significantly higher compared with the untreated cells (0.045±0.011 μg/L, P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Mean-while, IL-2 mRNA expression was markedly up-regulated following rhHMGB1 stimulation in various doses (F = 4.6872, P < 0.01). At 48 bourn, however, both IL-2 mRNA expression and protein production tended to de-crease along with an increased dose of dd-IMGB1 stimulationn. IL-2/sIL-2R ratio in 1000 ng/mL rhHMGB1 was markedly lower than that in 10 ng/ml rhHMGB1 (0.036±0.015 vs.0.055±0.017, P <0.05), together with down-regulation of IL-2Rα mRNA expression(P <0.01). Conclusions These data indieated that HMGBI could marked influence the IL-2/IL-2R expression in human T lymphocytes. With the increase in stimulating doses and prolongation of time, HMGBI might down-regulate T cell-mediated immune response of human lymphocytes.

Objective To study the effect of pentoxifylline (PTX) on acute lung injury (ALI) in murine sepsis induced by intra abdominal infection. Methods Wistar rats were subjected to sepsis caused by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), and animals were randomly divided into normal controls ( n =6), sepsis group ( n =18), and PTX treated group ( n =18). Pulmonary biopterin, nitric oxide (NO) levels, and pulmonary myeloperoxidase (MPO) activities were measured, guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase Ⅰ (GTP CHI), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF ?) mRNA expression were determined.Results Early treatment with PTX significantly decreased pulmonary MPO activities and TNF ?mRNA expression at 2 hours after CLP. Meanwhile, pulmonary biopterin, NO, GTP CHI, and iNOS mRNA expression levels were much lower in the treatment group than those in the non treatment group ( P

Objective To investigate the therapy of DHS,PFNA and Intertan nail for the treatment in elderly patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods One hundred and one elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures were collected.Thirty-four cases of them were undertaken DHS (DHS group),33 cases for PFNA (PFNA group),and 34 cases for Intertan nail (INTERTAN group).Operative time,blood loss and complications were observed.Results The Operative time of patients in DHS,PFNA and Intertan groups were (85.1 ± 8.9) min,(63.1 ± 8.2) min,(57.9 ± 9.2) min respectively and the difference was significant (F=12.761,P<0.001).The blood loss amount in DHS group were (350.1 ±80.2)ml,lower that those in PFNA and Intertan groups ((137.5 ± 35.4) ml and (125.2 ± 38.2) ml,F =20.462,P < 0.001).Meanwhile,the postoperative drainage in DHS group was (125.3 ± 20.4) ml,significantly higher than PFNA group and INTERTAN group ((69.4 ± 9.2) ml and (74.6 ± 10.4) ml; F =15.871,P <0.001).Operative time,blood loss amount in INTERTAN group were less than that in PFNA group,but no significant difference (P >0.05).Nonunion in DHS group was significantly higher than the other two groups (8.82% vs 0% and 0%,x2 =6.092,P =0.047).Excellent rate in DHS group,PFNA group and Intertan group were 82.3% (28/ 34),87.8% (29/33),85.3% (29/34) respectively,and there was no significant difference (x2 =0.591,P > 0.05).Conclusion Compared with DHS,Intertan nail and PFNA have advantage of shorter operative time,stronger anti-rotation capability and less various postoperative complication rates,thus they are more suitable for elderly osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture.

Objective To discuss the application of the bolus chasing DSA technology in angiography in thoracic, abdominal, common iliac and four limbs′ arteries. Methods Bolus chasing DSA with Mask Before program of the system was performed in 40 procedures in 25 patients, using the control handle to control the moving of the bed, and obtained the real time bolus chasing DSA pictures at the blood stream speed. Results In the 40 procedures, photographing in 35 had good qualities, accounting for 87.5%, but not good in 5, accounting for 12 5%, which could still meet the request of diagnosing after non subtraction processing. Conclusion Bolus chasing DSA could display a large scale of anatomical skeleton and blood stream condition from chest to the four limbs exactly. It was a new method that could be taken to observe real time continuous multi sections of blood vessel structure.

Objective To identify the biological and molecular biological characteristics of SN7 virus isolated from Niviventer Confucianus in Sichuan province. Methods Monoclonal antibody, PRNT and PCR antigenicity analysis and genotyping of SN7 strain were performed. M and S segments of SN7 genome were also cloned and sequenced. The sequences were compared with those of other strains of Hantavirus. Results It was difficult to identify SN7 by using monocloncal antibody, PRNT and PCR. With sequence comparison, we found that strain SN7 had high homology(80.2%~87.1% of M segment and 76.6%~92.0% of S segment) with HTN type strains, and relatively low homology(70.0%~71.6% of M segment and 71.0%~72.2% of S segment) with SEO type strains. Strain SN7 was believed to belong to HTN type. Conclusions SN7 is a new subtype strain of HTN type viruses. It is possible that Hantavirus has immune escape in its natural hosts.
