Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of thrombolytic drug infusion via carotid artery on experimental central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), and observe the changes of fibrinolytic activity in the systemic circulation. Methods To dissolve the thrombi in 15 cats (30 eyes) with CRAO established by laser irradiating a branch of central retinal artery after intravenous injection of photochemical drugs, urokinase (UK) was directly infused via carotid artery in 5 cats (10 eyes) in group A or intravenously injected in 5 cats (10 eyes) in group B, and isotonic saline solution was intravenously injected in 5 cats (10 eyes) in group C respectively. The patency of the artery was evaluated by fundus fluorescein angiography. Moreover, the changes of fibrinolitic activity in the blood were observed by blood biochemical examination. Results Four hours after UK infusion, the complete repatency proportion was 80% (5 cats 8 eys) in group A, and 50% (4 cats 5 eyes) in group B. There was significant difference between the two groups. Besides, after the infusion, the indexes of coagulation, fibrinolysis, and anti-fibrinolysis in group A were better than those in group B and C (P

Objective: To study the effect of topical administration of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on healing of rabbit corneal wound caused by mustard gas. Methods: All the corneas of 8 New Zealand white rabbits were injured by liquid mustard at the concentration of 0.2%. One eye of each rabbit was treated with bFGF eye drops 6 times daily, the other eye with 0.25% chloromycetin eye drops as control. Computerized image analyzer was used to calculate the corneal epithelial healing rate. Results: The mean epithelial healing rate in bFGF-treated eyes was (1.276?0.152) mm 2/h, whereas in the control eyes it was (1.094?0.154) mm 2/h. The difference of 2 groups was statistically significant (P

MicroRNAs (miRNA), an abundant class of highly conserved small non-coding RNAs, suppress gene expression by binding to the 3' UTR of target mRNAs, which presents an entirely new approach to post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. MiRNAs have been shown to play key roles in the regulation of diverse biological processes, such as development, inflammation, apoptosis, and tumorigenesis. Several studies have shown the dysregulated miRNAs in various lymphomas including the overexpression of miR-106a and miR-17-92 in T cell lymphoma;upregulated miR-155, miR-221 and miR-21 in diffuse large B-cell iymphoma and follicular cell lymphoma, and these miRNAs associated with subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Overexpression of the miR-17 cluster showed reduced levels of apoptosis, suggesting that the main effect of these miRNAs was to suppress cell death. Although miRNAs can act as both tumour suppressor and oncogenic molecules, the mechanistic explanation for this dysregulation is unclear but maybe linked to the defects in the miRNA biosynthetic machinery. As more evidence accumulates, it is likely that miRNAs will emerge as a new class of epigenetic regulator.

300mg%). Conclusion: Acetylshikonin's content was high, radix arnebiae oil colour was very red, It was up to the mustard.

Objective To detect and analyse the mutations in rhodopsin gene of members in a family affected by autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (ADRP). Methods Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), we amplified exon 1-5 of rhodopsin gene in patients with ADRP,and analyzed it with direct sequence measuement. Results The Gly-182-Asp mutation in the rhodopsin gene was detected in most of affected members of this ADRP family, but no mutation was detected in two affected members and the control ones. Conclusion We cannot regard the Gly-182-Asp mutation in the rhodopsin gene as the pathagenic factor of the ADRP family. It is likely there is a new gene next to the rhodopsin gene.

The mucosa associated lymphoid tissue(MALT) lymphoma represents a distinct subgroup of B cell non Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) arising from extranodal sites. These neoplasms usually arise from the gastrointestinal tract,salivary gland,thyroid and ocular adnexal, which have been recognized from clinical,pathological and molecular genetics aspects.In this paper we reviewed the investigation progress of MALT lymphoma molecular biology.

There are some characteristics in ophthalmology teaching for students of seven-year program,such as ophthalmological theory teaching,teaching materials selection,clinical effective teaching methods,and research training methods.In view of the existing problems in current ophthalmology teaching mode for seven-year program,a series of initiatives for researching a new mode has been taken,and some achievements have been made in these fields by exploring some effective teaching methods and practice.

As a frontier branches of science,a significant progress in orbital diseases has been achieved in the last few years.In view of the existing problems in current teaching mode for experts in orbital disease and their characteristics,a series of initiatives for researching a new mode have been taken,and some achievements have been made.

Objective:To localize the gene of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa(ADRP) in a family. Methods: A large ADRP family was studied and 3 5 ml of venous blood from some family members was collected, and genomic DNA was extracted from the blood. Then two point linkage analysis between the known markers and the disease locus was performed. Results: Linkage analysis showed the maximum LOD score reached 2.732852 at marker D3S1292 (at recombination fraction ?=0.1). Conclusion: The gene responsible for ADRP is located in 3q21 eara.

Objectives: To observe the therapeutic effects of collagen corneal shields (CCS) combined with fibronectin (FN) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on healing of rabbit corneal wound caused by mustard gas, and to look for the new methods,new technology and new medicine to treat the injured cornea before eyelid edema observed in field hospital.Methods: After the left cornea was contaminated with mustard gas, 24 rabbits were equally divided into three groups(groups A, B, C) at random. Groups A,B,C were treated with PBS,CCS and CCS+FN+EGF,respectively. The corneas were stained with fluorescein and photographed 2, 8, 16, 24, 36,72 hours after contamination. The rate of corneal epithelial healing and percentage of damage were calculated. Results:The healing rates of groups A,B and C were (0.879±0.139)mm2/h, (1.223±0.166)mm2/h and (1.543±0.224)mm2/h,respectively and had statistically significant difference(P<0.01). The percentage of damage was 71.6%, 57.3% and 44.8%,respectively and also had statistically significant difference(P<0.01).Conclusions: The treatment with CCS can accelerate the corneal epithelial healing injured by mustard gas and the therapeutic effects will be better if CCS is combined with FN and EGF.
