Objective:To investigate the rat retinal DNA damage induced by acute hypobaric hypoxia and the protective effect of Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound on it. Methods:Seventy-two healthy clean grade male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into normal oxygen control group, hypoxic model group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group by computer random number distribution, with 24 rats in each group.The rats in the normal oxygen control group were fed in normal condition, while the rats in the hypoxic model group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group were fed in a hypobaric oxygen chamber, which simulated an altitude of 5 kilometers, and the rats were administered intragastrically with Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound (0.1 g/kg) or the same volume of normal saline once a day according to grouping.Retinal tissue was obtained on the 7th day of continuous administration of drugs after the rats were sacrificed by euthanasia.Histopathological staining was performed to observe the pathological morphology of retina in each group.Immunohistochemistry was used to identify the expressions of p53 and histone family 2A variant ( γH2AX). Real time-PCR was used to determine the relative expression levels of 8-oxoguanine nucleoside triphosphatase (MTH1) and 8-hydroxyguanine glycolsylase (OGG1) mRNA.The use and care of the animals followed Regulations of the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission. Results:The retina of hypoxic model group was thicker than that of the normal oxygen control group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group, especially the nerve fiber layer and the ganglion cell layer.The positive staining intensities of p53 and γH2AX were stronger in the retinas of the hypoxic model group than those in the the normal oxygen control group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group.The relative expression levels of MTH1 and OGG1 mRNA in the hypoxic model group were 0.573±0.081 and 0.772±0.136, which were significantly lower than 0.846±0.160 and 1.013±0.168 in the normal oxygen control group, respectively (both at P<0.05). The relative expression level of MTH1 mRNA was 0.748±0.114 in the Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group, significantly higher than that in the hypoxic model group ( P<0.05). No significant difference was detected in OGG1 mRNA expression level between the Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group and the hypoxic model group ( P=0.743). Conclusions:The intervention of Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound plays a protective role in hypobaric hypoxia-induced retinal DNA damage through modulating the expression of p53, γH2AX, OGG1 and MTH1.

Objective To investigate the effect of treatment with endostatin combined with siRNA targeting VEGF on rats with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA).Methods Two mg/ml bovinetype Ⅱ collagen was injected into the rat footpad to build up the animal model of CIA.The experimental animal models were treated with endostatin combined with siRNA targeting VEGF 18 days later after immunization and the treatment ended 32 day later.The efficacy was evaluated by the weight,foot and ankle volume of rats.The levels of VEGF in plasma were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The VEGF distribution within synovial tissue was detected and examined by immunohistochemical technique.The pathological changes of CIA were evaluated by the pathological changes of the biopsied ankle joints.Student's t test was used to evaluate the experimental data.Results The ELISA test showed that comparing with the model group (17.5±0.3),the endostatin group (15.7±0.3) ng/L and the endostatin combined siRNA targeting VEGF group (14.7±0.5) ng/L showed a significant efficacy in the treatment of CIA in rats (P＜0.05).The endostatin group (135±27) and the endostatin combined siRNA targeting VEGF group (126±71) were different in the number of VEGF in plasma and the VEGF distribution within synovial tissue (P＜0.05),the symptoms of arthritis in these rats were reduced than the model group.Conclusion Endostatin combined siRNA targeting VEGF has good therapeutic effect on rats with CIA.

Objective To evaluate the long-term results of vitreoretinal surgery without use of intraocular silicone oil or gas in patients with diabetic tractional retinal detachment (DTRD).Methods The clinical interventional case series study included 104 patients (112 eyes) with DTRD,who were consecutively treated by pars plana vitrectomy without use of intraocular silicone oil or gas.Among the eyes,there were 6 eyes with iris neovascularization (INV),1 eye with neovascular glaucoma (NVG) and 50 eyes with macular retinal detachment.There were no pre-existing retinal holes or breaks prior to surgery nor any iatrogenie retinal breaks developed during vitrectomy.Cataract removal combined with intraoeular lens implant surgeries were performed on 15 eyes.Follow-up duration varied from 12 to 65 months (mean: 29 months).Results Subretinal fluid was completely absorbed within 2 months after surgery.In 107 eyes (95.54%),the retina reattached after surgery and remained attached till the end of follow-up period.Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) improved in 79 eyes (70.53%),remained unchanged in 14 eyes (12.500%) and got worse in 19 eyes (16.79%).The BCVA improving rate was lower in the macular detached group (33 eyes/50 eyes,66.00% Vs 46 eyes/62 eyes,74.19%,χ2=0.89,P=0.344).No obviously aggravated opacity of lens was observed after vitreoretinal surgeries in the eyes without cataract surgeries.Seven (6.25%) eyes showed INV (5 new onset eyes),and none of them developed into NVG.In multivariate logistic regression,factors associated with postoperative rubeosis iridis were pre-existing rubeosis iridis I-adjusted odds ratio (OR)= 10.2],low preoperative BCVA (OR= 11.1) and low postoperative BCVA (OR = 16.7).Conclusions Vitreoretinal surgery for DTRD may not necessarily be combined with silicone oil or gas tamponade if there are no preoperative or intraoperative retinal breaks,and only using irrigation fluid could access a good long-term prognosis result.

This study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for diabetic peripheral neuropathy.MEDLINE, EMBASE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang database were searched. The study endpoints included clinical total efficacy, peripheral nerve conduction velocity and adverse reactions. The Review Manager software 5.2 was used in the bias and risk assessment as well as efficacy. GRADE profiler software was used to evaluate quality of evidences. The results showed that there were 18 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with 1158 patients included. The clinical total efficacy rate of acupuncture treatment was obviously better than the drug control group [RR: 1.38, 95%CI (1.25, 1.53),P < 0.000 01]. The sensory nerve conduction velocity was that for nervus medianus, the acupuncture treatment group was superior to the drug control group [MD = 2.55, 95%CI (1.23, 3.87),P = 0.000 1]; for nervus peroneus communis, the acupuncture treatment group was superior to the drug control group [MD = 3.42, 95%CI (2.56, 4.28),P < 0.000 01]. The motor nerve conduction velocity was that for nervus medianus, the acupuncture treatment group was superior to the drug control group [MD= 4.10, 95%CI (1.01, 7.19),P = 0.009); for the nervus peroneus, the acupuncture treatment group was superior tothe drug control group [MD = 3.09, 95%CI (1.99, 4.19),P < 0.000 01]. The adverse reactions and safety indicators were that no adverse reaction was reported in both studies with no abnormal safety indicator. The quality of evidence showed that the sensory nerve conduction velocity for nervus peroneus communis was moderate; the motor nerve conduction velocities for nervus medianus and nervus peroneus communis were low. While, the clinical efficacy rate and the quality of evidence for sensory nerve conduction velocity of nervus medianus were relatively low. It was concluded that the current clinical evidences were uncertain for the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in diabetic peripheral neuropathy treatment.

Purpose To detect the expression of FOXO3 in lung cancer specimens and lung cancer stem cell, for diagnosis and treat-ment of lung cancer. Methods Immunohistochemistry, semi-quantitative PCR and Western blot were used to detect FOXO3 protein expression in clinical specimens of lung cancer. PCR and Western blot verified FOXO3 mRNA and protein expression of lung cancer cells. Results Immunohistochemistry showed that the FOXO3 was significantly lower expressed in lung cancer tissues and the corre-sponding lung cancer stem cells;Detection of FOXO3 mRNA and protein by RT-PCR and Western blot showed both had significantly lower expression;as progression of the disease, there was a clear decreasing trend, in which negative expression rate of FOXO3 protein accounted for 66. 7% in all patients;at the same times, the rate of the expression gradually decreased with loss of differentiation and metastasis of the tumor. Conclusions FOXO3 shows low expression in lung tissue and lung cancer stem cells, while it is closely relat-ed to the degree of malignancy and lung cancer metastasis, which may be a new target for the treatment.

Objective To evaluate improvement of visual acuity for advanced proliferative diabetic retinopathy eyes with different complications after vitrectomy. Methods Four groups of advanced proliferative diabetic retinopathy (APDR) in 314 eyes with diabetes type Ⅱ and type Ⅰ were analyzed retrospectively: vitreous hemorrhage with limited traction retinal detachment (VH), extensive fibrovascular membranes with traction retinal detachment (TD), combined rhegmatogenous and traction retinal detachment (CRT) and cataract with vitreous hemorrhage or and traction retinal detachment (CHD). Results 0.1 or better postoperative visual acuity was achieved in 59.5% of type Ⅱ and 66.7% of type Ⅰ in the VH group; 39.4% of type Ⅱ and 52.6% of type Ⅰ in the extensive TD group; 31.6% of the CRT group; 62.5% of the CHD group. The major intraoperative complication is iatrogenic retinal breaks. The causes of postoperative visual loss in present study included neovascular glaucoma (2.8% of type Ⅰ and 0.4% of type Ⅱ in aphakia, 25% of type Ⅱ in aphakia and 4.2% in pseudophakia), retinal detachment and CRAO. Conclusion The majority of APDR eyes obtained better visual improvement after vitrectomy and photocoagulation.

Objective To evaluate the success rate and the risk of impairing vision for epimacular surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis of 57 eyes with epimacular membrane after surgery was made, and the changes in visual acuity and near visual acuity, in different etiology, improvement in distortion, as well as intraoperative and postoperative complications were compared. Results The eyes of 78 8% achieved a visual improvement of more than 2 lines. The visual improvement after surgery of epimacular membranes was the most in buckling group, then in macular hole with epimacular membrane and idiopathic eyes, the change was very limited in macular traction syndrome. The improvement of near visual acuity is usually better than distant visual acuity. The improvement rate of distortion is of 65 0%. The main intraoperative complication was reopen of the primary hole(4 eyes) and the formation of new hole(5 eyes). Conclusion Surgical peeling for epimacular membranes can improve the visual acuity and distorted vision,particularly in epimacular membrane after buckling surgeries, with macular hole and idiopathic eyes. possible risks might be present in surgical manipulation.
