AIM:To investigate the effects of rhTGF-?1 and TGF-?1 gene transfection on the proliferation of cultured rabbit corneal endothelial cells in vitro.METHODS:Cell growth induced by various concentrations of rhTGF-?1 was determined by MTT proliferation assay.Under the induction of liposomes,recombinant pSecTag2-TGF-?1MP vectors were transferred into the corneal endothelial cells.Morphological changes of transfected cells were observed by HE staining.The expression levels of TGF-?1 were assessed by ELISA.Cell cycle analysis was assessed by flow cytometry.DNA fragment analysis was used to confirm the presence of apoptosis.RESULTS:rhTGF-?1 in concentrations of 5-20 ?g/L showed a significant suppressive effect on the proliferation of corneal endothelial cells,0.5-1 ?g/L had no effect,0.05-0.1 ?g/L facilitated cell growth,as compared with negative controls.The morphous of transfected corneal cells had no significant abnormality compared with normal cells.According to the result of ELISA,the concentration of TGF-?1 in the supernatant was calculated to be(98?3)ng/L.Flow cytometry assay showed that S and G2/M phase of transfected cells decreased significantly compared with that of control group,but the cell cycle recovered normally after adding 10 ?g/L EGF into the culture medium.Agarose electrophoresis didn't show marked ladders in transfected group.CONCLUSION:Effects of rhTGF-?1 on the proliferation of corneal endothelial cells are different with various concentrations.TGF-?1 gene transfection shows suppressive effect on the proliferation of cultured corneal endothelial cells,but does not induce cell apoptosis.EGF is the antagonist of this suppressive effect.

Objective To explore the event-related potentials (ERPs) P300 is changeable or not before and after treatment. Methods 99 cases of patients with first onset of depression diagnosed by DSM-Ⅳ as case group,and 100 cases matched with patients as control group were collected. P300 of two groups were obtained before and after treatment for 6 weeks,12 weeks,24 weeks. T test was used to analysis the difference of indicators of P300 among groups; repeated measure analysis of variance was used to analysis the longitudinal changes. Results shorter latency of N2-P3 ( (P ＜ 0.01 ); and lower amplitude of N2, P3, N2-P3 (P ＜ 0. 05 ), higher amplitude of P2-tency and a upward one in N2-P3 latency in the four periods; a upward trend could also be found in P3, N2-P3 amplitude, but there were no statistical differences(P ＞ 0. 05 ). The results of paired-samples t test: P3, N2-P3 amplitude in case group were higher after treatment for 6 weeks than before, the difference was significant (P ＜ 0.01 ); no significant results were found in P300 latency or amplitude between the 62 cases of depression after treatment for 24 weeks and the 65 normal controls selected (P ＞ 0. 05 ). Conclusion P300 latencies and amplitudes tend to be partly recovered after the acute treatment in patients with depression, but after the long-term therapy not clear.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of CT thin-section target reconstruction technique in patients with pulmonary small size groud glass nodules (sGGN).Methods A total of 109 patients with pulmonary sGGN certified post-operation and/or follow up were analyzed retrospectively,and the clinical and CT images of all patients were completely collected.There were 23 cases of benign group,21 cases of adenocarcinoma in situ group,29 cases of minimally invasive adenocarcinoma group and 36 cases of invasive adenocarcinoma group,respectively.The differential diagnostic value using CT thin-section target reconstruction technique was analyzed between the benign and malignant pulmonary sGGN groups,and the CT feature detection rates were compared between CT thin section target and common reconstruction techniques.Results The CT thin-section target reconstruction technique had improved the diagnostic efficiency of pulmonary sGGN.The diagnostic accuracy,area under curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity were 85.32 ％,0.679,90.80 ％,63.64 ％ in malignant group and 77.06％,0.764,83.72％,52.17％ in benign pulmonary sGGN group,respectively.The CT features as solid component in whole nodule,"halo sign",speculation sign,pleural retraction sign,lobulation sign were more detected by using the thin-section target reconstruction technique than that by using the common reconstruction among adenocarcinoma in situ group,minimally invasive adenocarcinoma group and invasive adenocarcinoma group (P＜0.05) but not speculation sign in the invasive adenocarcinoma group(P=0.126).Conclusion The CT thin section target reconstruction technique can improve the diagnostic value of pulmonary sGGN.
