2.Expression and significance of Maspin and IKKα in sinusoidal mucosa of rats with fungal rhinosinusitis
Chinese Journal of Comparative Medicine 2017;27(7):75-80,92
Objective To investigate the expression and significance of Maspin and IKKα in nasosinusoidal mucosa of rats with fungal rhinosinusitis (FRS).Methods A total of 40 SD rats were used to establish the FRS model, and randomly divided into nasal obstruction group, FRS group, immunosuppressive group and invasive FRS group, 10 rats in each group.Another 10 normal rats were used as control group.Mice in the control group were fed with normal diet.In the nasal obstruction group, the mice had only hemostatic cotton stuffed in the nasal cavity and injection of 0.9% NaCl in the abdominal and nasal cavities.In the FRS group, the mice were injected Aspergillus fumigatus spore suspension into the nasal cavity and 0.9% NaCl i.p.The mice of the immunosuppressive group were given cyclophosphamide i.p.and 0.9% NaCl injection into the nasal cavity.The invasive FRS group was injected with cyclophosphamide i.p.and Aspergillus fumigatus spore suspension into the nasal cavity.The serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The expression of Maspin and IKKα in nasosinusoidal mucosa was detected by immunohistochemical staining.The expression of Maspin mRNA and IKKα mRNA in the nasosinusoidal mucosa was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.Results The serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in different groups were significantly different (P< 0.05).The level of IL-6 in the FRS group was (69.3 ± 10.9) ng/L, significantly higher than those in the control group, nasal obstruction group, immunosuppressive group and invasive FRS group [(45.2 ± 7.1)ng/L, (46.4 ± 6.7) ng/L, (21.3 ± 4.5) ng/L, and (20.9 ± 4.3 ng/L)] (P < 0.05).The level of TNF-α in the FRS group was (30.4 ± 4.8) ng/L, significantly higher than those in the control group, nasal obstruction group, immunosuppressive group and invasive FRS group [(14.8 ± 2.7) ng/L, (13.9 ± 1.4) ng/L, (7.9 ± 0.6) ng/L, and (7.8 ± 0.4 ng/L)] (P < 0.05).The levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the control group were significantly higher than those in the immunosuppressive group and invasive FRS group (P< 0.05).There was no significant difference between the immunosuppressive group and the invasive group (P> 0.05).Theresult of immunohistochemical staining showed that the protein expression of Maspin in the FRS group and invasive FRS group was significantly lower than that in the control group, nasal obstruction group and immunosuppressive group, while the expression of IKKα protein was significantly higher than that of control group, nasal obstruction group and immunosuppressive group (P< 0.05).The protein expression of Maspin in the invasive FRS group was significantly lower than that in the FRS group, by contrast, the expression of IKKα protein was significantly higher (P< 0.05).The PCRresult revealed that the expression levels of Maspin and IKKα mRNA were (0.217 ± 0.013) and (0.193 ± 0.012), significantly lower than that in the control, obstruction and immunosuppressive groups [(0.309 ± 0.021), (0.302 ± 0.017), and (0.293 ± 0.02)] (P< 0.05), while the expressions level of IKKα mRNA were significantly higher [(0.319 ± 0.043), (0.384 ± 0.048) vs (0.169 ± 0.015), (0.171 ± 0.018), and (0.175 ± 0.019)] (P< 0.05).Conclusions Down-regulation of Maspin expression after IKKα activation is the main cause of the onset of FRS, which may also be one of the mechanisms of invasive FRS.

International Eye Science 2015;(5):793-795
?AlM:To compare the effect of iris location guided sub-bowman keratomileusis ( SBK ) and iris location guided thin - flap laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASlK ) for extremely high myopia treatment.
?METHODS:lris location guided SBK was performed in 64 eyes of 32 patients with extremely high myopia and 42 eyes of 84 patients were received iris location guided thin-flap LASlK. All the patients’ spherical refraction was-9. 00D ~ - 11. 00D and the age was 22 ~ 35 years. Uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA) , refraction, split-lamp examination, topography examination, central corneal stroma thickness, thickness of central corneal flap, thickness of peripheral corneal flap and complication was examined in these patients and follow-up was 6mo.
?RESULTS:At 6mo after surgery, 93. 8% of the patients received iris location guided SBK and 92. 9% received iris location guided thin-flap LASlK achieved a UCVA better than 20/20. There was no significant difference between two groups. Refraction between ±0. 5D was 89. 1% of SBK group and 84. 5% of LASlK group. There was no significant difference. Corneal rear surface height of SBK was 0. 046±0. 012μm and LASlK was 0. 056±0. 015μm. Thickness of corneal stroma after surgery was 328. 6±14. 7μm in SBK group, while it was 301. 2±21. 6μm in LASlK group and there was significant difference ( t =3. 127, P=0. 001). BUT was 11. 38±4. 02s and 17. 81±4. 89s in SBK and LASlK group respectively, with no statistical difference. There was no serious complication in two groups.?CONCLUTlON:Both iris location guided SBK and thin-flap LASlK are effective for extremely high myopia, but SBK is safer and more predictive than thin-flap LASlK.

BACKGROUND: The proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) lack of regulatory functions. Following combining with suitable vectors, MSCs cannot highly effectively proliferate and differentiate, which are keys to prevent MSCs entering the clinic. It is of great importance to effectively regulate the differentiation of stem cells into osteoblasts using pulse electromagnetic field.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the differentiation of mouse MSCs into osteoblasts in vitro following stimulation of pulse electromagnetic field.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The cytological in vitro controlled study was conducted at the Laboratory of Department of Orthopaedics, Puai Hospital of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from May 2004 to October 2007.MATEIRALS: Totally 20 BALB/C mice were supplied by the Experimental Animal Center of Tongji Medical College. Pulse electromagnetic field deviser was designed and made by the Department of Electric Machine, Naval University of Engineering.METHODS: Mouse bilateral femur was sterilely isolated. BMSCs were harvested by the Percoll density gradient centrifugation,and purified and proliferated by the adherent method. Cells at the third passage (2×10~7/L) were incubated in a 6-well plate, and then divided into 4 groups. Cells in the blank control group were incubated in the complete medium. Cells in the pulse electromagnetic field underwent pulse electromagnetic field radiation of 50 Hz, sinusoidal wave, and 1 mT, twice a day, once 30 minutes, with an interval of 12 hours, totally 10 days. Cells in the osteogenic induction group were incubated in the complete medium, supplemented with dexamethasone, sodium glycerophosphate and VitC. Cells in the pulse electromagnetic field + osteogenic induction group were subjected to the same pulse electromagnetic field radiation and then incubated in the complete medium.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The differentiation of BMSCs was measured.RESULTS: Results of alkaline phosphatase staining showed that cells were negative in the blank control group, but weakly positive in the pulse electromagnetic field group, positive in the osteogenic induction group, and strongly positive in the pulse electromagnetic field + osteogenic induction group 10 days following intervention. Compared with the blank control group,absorbance value of type I collagen immunohistochemistry was significantly greater in the osteogenic induction group, pulse electromagnetic field + osteogenic induction group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: Pulsed electromagnetism fields of 50 Hz, waves of sine, with the intensity of 1 mT could promote alkaline phosphatase and type I collagen expression and enhance the differentiation of mouse BMSCs into osteoblasts in vitro.
