?AIM: To evaluate the effects on recovering of corneal wound and postoperative discomfort of different methods for primary pterygium.?METHODS: Forty-seven cases ( 60 eyes ) of primary pterygium were excised under microscope with limbal epithelial transplantation, with sharp dissection ( 24 cases, 30 eyes, Group A) and blunt dissection (23 cases, 30 eyes, Group B).All cases were followed up for 1d to 1mo.?RESULTS: The recovering of corneal wound was better in Group B on 1st day and 3rd day after surgery.Pain, photophobia and tears, foreign body sensation were more serious in group A on 1st day after surgery with a statistically significant difference (P=0.005,0.015,0.012). Pain, photophobia and tears, foreign body sensation were more serious in Group A on 3rd day after surgery with a statistically significant difference ( P=0.019,0.018, 0.015).There was no statistically significant difference on 1wk and 1mo after surgery (P>0.05).? CONCLUSION: Compared with sharp dissection, primary pterygium excised with blunt dissection can significantly improve recovering of corneal wound and postoperative discomfort.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Zhenqing Recipe (ZQR) on non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL), and the expression of hepatic salt-inducible kinase 1 (SIK1) and sterol-regulatory element binding protein-ic (SREBP-lc) in type 2 diabetes rats.

METHODSA rat model of type 2 diabetes was established by high fat/sucrose diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of small dose streptozotocin (STZ) . Modeled rats were randomly divided into the model group, the ZQR group, and the metformin group, 8 in each group. Eight rats were recruited as a normal control group. ZQR at the daily dose of 12 g crude drugs/kg was administered to rats in the ZQR group by gastrogavage. Metformin suspension at the daily dose of 150 mg/kg was administered to rats in the metformin group by gastrogavage. Equal volume of distilled water was administered to rats in the normal control group and the model group. All medication lasted for 12 weeks. The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG), free fatty acid (FFA), serum triglyceride (TG), serum total cholesterol (TC), serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were detected. The body weight and wet liver weight were weighed, and the liver weight index calculated. The liver TG content was measured. The pathological changes of liver and the expression of SIK1 were observed by HE staining and immunohistochemistry. The mRNA and protein expression of SIK1 and SREBP-1c were detected using RT-PCR and Western blot.

RESULTSCompared with the normal control group, FBG, FFA, TG, TC, ALT, AST, liver weight index, and liver TG contents significantly increased (P < 0.01); liver steatosis was severe, the mRNA and protein expression of SIK1 obviously decreased (P < 0.01); mRNA and protein expression of SREBP-1c increased (P < 0.01). After drug therapy, compared with the model group, FBG, FFA, TG, TC, ALT, AST, and liver weight index significantly decreased, liver TG contents significantly decreased, the mRNA and protein expression of SIK1 obviously increased, while mRNA and protein expression of SREBP-1c obviously decreased (P < 0.05, P < 0.01) in the ZQR group and the metformin group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01); and the pathological changes were also improved. All the indices were improved more in the ZQR group (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONIn this experiment, we found that the expression of SIK1 decreased in NAFL rats with type 2 diabetes. ZQR could alleviate lesion of NAFL type 2 diabetes rats possibly by up-regulating hepatic SIK1 expression at mRNA and protein levels.

Objective:To explore the way to separate and culture eutopic and ectopic endometrial glandular cells and their stromal cells,providing an in vitro cell model of endometriosis for study of its mechanism. Methods:Digestion,filtration and sedimentation were used to isolate and culture the eutopic and ectopic endometrial glandular cells and their stromal cells. The estrogen level was imatated to study the way of promoting cell growth. Morphological characters of eutopic and ectopic endometrial cells were examined using optical microscope. Results:The success rate of separation and culture of normal control endometrial glandular cells and its stromal cells was 91.7%(11/12);of eutopic endometrial glandular cells and its stromal cells of endometriosis was 93.8%(15/16);of etopic endometrial glandular cells and its stromal cells of endometriosis was 75.0%(12/16) . Conclusion:The cultured eutopic and ectopic endometrial cells is more like human body feature than the endometriosis model of animals. So the isolation and culture of eutopic and ectopic endometrial glandular cells and their stromal cells may serve as an in vitro experimental model.

Objective To investigate the distribution of T follicular helper(Tfh)cell subsets in hepa-titis B patients at different immune stages and to clarify the relationships between the level of CXCL13 and the distribution of Tfh cell subsets. Methods Flow cytometry analysis was performed to detect the distribution of Tfh cells. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was performed to measure the levels of CXCL13 in ser-um samples collected from hepatitis B patients. RT-PCR and Western blot assay were used to analyze the expres-sion of CXCL13 in HepG2 and HepG2. 2. 1. 5 cells. Results The percentages of Tfh1 cells were significantly up-regulated at the immune activation(IA)stage,while those of Tfh2 cells were significantly raised at the im-mune tolerance(IT)stage. The percentages of Tfh17 cells in patients at the stage of IT were similar to those in patients at the stage of IA,but were higher than those in responders with HBsAg seroconversion(RP)or healthy controls(HC). The expression of CXCL13 was positively correlated with the percentage of Tfh2 cells. More over,hepatitis B virus(HBV)enhanced the expression of CXCL13 at both transcriptional and translational lev-els. Conclusion HBV might up-regulate the percentage of Tfh2 cells through promoting the expression of CXCL13,which resulted in the induction of immune tolerance. Elucidating the functions of Tfh1,Tfh2 and Tfh17 cells and understanding the type conversion mechanism among the three subsets are important for further researches on HBV-induced immunosuppression.

Purpose To evaluate the clinical and pathological features of extramammary Paget’ s disease ( EMPD) and to investigate the related prognostic factors. Methods The clinical and pathological data of 30 patients with EMPD were reviewed retrospectively. The HE slides in the file were rechecked. Immunohistochemical stains were performed on archival paraffin-embedded sections with En-Vision method in 20 cases. Follow-up data were recorded. The relationship between the clinicopathological parameters and prognosis was statistically analyzed. Results Among the 30 patients, there were 26 males and 4 females, aged from 53 to 88 years with median age 70. Macroscopically, typical presentations of EMPD were eczematoid lesions. Microscopically, Paget’s cells were distributed sin-gly or in groups ( as glandular or nests patterns) within the epidermis. Immunohistochemical stains showed that Paget’ s cells were pos-itive for CK7, and negative for CK5/6 and p63. Follow-up data were available in 23 cases, 8 cases recurred resection, among them, 6 patients had positive resected margin and 4 died. The recurrent rate and mortality between the groups of dermal invasion and no der-mal invasion (P<0. 01 and P<0. 05), the groups of lymphatic metastasis and no lymphatic metastasis (P<0. 01), and the groups of positive and negative resected margin (P<0. 01 and P<0. 05) were statistically different. There were no statistically different with age and extent of lesion (P>0. 05). Conclusions CK7 is a sensitive and specific marker of Paget’s cells. Dermal invasion, lymphatic metastasis and positive resected margin are poor prognostic factors in EMPD.
