1.Advances in molecular genetics of glaucoma
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2015;33(3):263-269
Glaucoma is the most common cause of irreversible blindness worldwide.The major performances of glaucoma optic neuropathy are progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs),specific visual field defect and optic atrophy induced by elevated intraocular pressure.Glaucoma primarily includes primary open angle glaucoma (POAG),chronic angle-closure glaucoma (CACG) and exfoliation glaucoma (XFG).Recent studies showed that genetic factor and environmental factor participate in the pathogenesis of glaucoma,and the contributions of genetic factor to glaucoma are widely concerned,and some disease-causing gene and their pathogenic mechanisms are sequentially announced.A comprehensive discussion of the advances in molecular genetics of glaucoma is included in this paper.

Objective To study the ultrasonic features of fetus deformity.Methods 34 cases with fetus defomity were examined by Aloka 280 B-mode ultrasound and Hp-image point system(3.5 MHz transducer).Results Of the thirty-four cases with fetus deformity,thirty-one cases were seen and proved by the clinical induced labour and parturition.Only three of the cases were misdiangnosed.Conclusion Examination with the ultrasonic equipment is a simple and convenient way in the antenantal examination.Fetus deformity often exists simultaneously with various types of deformity and has close relationship with the amount of amniatic fluid.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of penehyclidine hydrochloride and atropine in the prevention of catheter related bladder discomfort(CRBD) in patients undergoing gynecology laparoscopic surgery.Method;Eighty ASA classⅠorⅡpatients undergoing elective gynecology laparoscopic surgery were randomly assigned into 2 groups of P and A with 40 cases each.Fifteen minutes before the anesthesia induction,penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.5 mg and atropine 0.25 mg were administered in Group P and Group A,respectively.After the induction of anesthesia,patients were catherized with a 14 Fr Foley's catheter.HR,bladder discomfort,Ramsay Sedative Score(RSS) and side reactions were recorded at 0 h,0.5 h,1 h and 6 h after the end of surgery in the post-anaesthesia care unit(PACU).The severity of bladder discomfort was graded as mild,moderate and severe.Result:The total incidence rate of CRBD in Group P was apparently lower than that in Group A(P0.05).The incidence rate of CRBD of Group P was apparently lower than that in Group A at 6 h after the end of surgery(P0.05).Conclusion:The application of enehyclidine hydrochloride before anesthesia induction provides a better prophylactic effect of CRBD than that of atropine but with a higher incidence rate of dry mouth.

Objective We sought to determine the incidence,clinical features,and risk factors for retroperitoneal hematoma(RPH)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods A retrospective analysis yielded 21 cases of RPH out of 3,729 consecutive patients undergoing PCI between January 2000 and September 2005 in Anzhen hospital.Cases were compared with a randomly selected sample of 30 control subjects without RPH.Predictors were studied using univariate and multivariate analysis.Results The incidence of RPH was 0.6%.Anemia(100%)was a most universal feature.Features of RPH included hypotension(95%),diaphoresis(57%),groin pain(48%),abdominal pain(38%)and back pain(38%).The following variables were found to be independent predictors of RPH:female gender(odds ratio OR=5.23,P

Mesenehymal stem cells CMSCS are nonhematopoietie stromal cells that are capable of differentiating into, and contribute to the regeneration of, mesenchymal tissues such as bone, cartilage, muscle, ligament, tendon and adipose. MSCs have been isolated from human first- and second-trimester fetal blood, liver, spleen, bone marrow, adipose tissue, amniotie fluid, periosteum and embryo. Not only can they express many phynotypes involving adhesion molecules and chemokine receptors, but also have character of immune tolerance, so they have potential of migration and transportation to target issue and feature of immune suppressing. There are wide application prospects for a number of areas in the cardiovascular, neurological, blood, surgical injury and other diseases. The current review describes the phynotypes, the immune tolerance and the potential for homing of MSCs.

Generally speaking,the hepatocyte stem cell is not a specific cell type.but an overall name of all kinds of cells that possess stem cell characters about embryonic development and regeneration of liver.HSC is a pluripotential stem cells which have self-renewal capacity and could differentiate into mature hepatocytes and bile duct cells.According to the different origin of hepatocyte stem cell,it can be usually divided into two kinds:non liver-derived hepatocyte stem cell and liver-derived hepatocyte stem cell.

Animal models of pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH),aiming to simulate human characteristics of the disease,have contributed extensively to understanding the pathophysiology of PAH and the investigation of experimental treatments.The classical models include monocrotaline models,chronic hypoxia model and so on,more new models were investigated in recent years.These animal models were not able to perfectly mimic human pathological characteristics of PAH because of the defect in different aspects.In this review,both typical and novel methods of PAH modeling were summarized and evaluated to provide a suitable guidance for the settlement of animal models which can meet human characteristics comprehensively.

Objective To isolate and indentify fetal hepatic progenitor/stem cells, and study the feasibility and effectiveness of their transplantation on acute liver injury in nude mice. Methods The primitive cells isolated from 13.5dpc pregnant mouse fetal hver by way of enzyme digesting were cultured in vitro and liver specific markers as AFP, CK19, Albumin, c-Met, were identified by immunofluorescence and RT-PCR on colonies. 4 × 105 cells were transplanted into nude mice with carbon tetrachloride induced acute liver injury. Hapatic functions were measured pre- and -post transplantation on days 1,2,4, 7. Meanwhile, hepatic pathology was studied. Results Compared to control group the hepatic functions gradually recovered in transplant group, on days 1,2,4 after fetal hepatic stem cell transplantation. The hepatic pathology significantly improved in stem cells transplantation group. Conclution Fetal hepatic progenitor/stem cell were successfully yielded by enzyme digest. Stem cells transplantation improved the hepatic function and pathology in acute hapatic injury model of nude mice.
