Uveitis is a kind of inflammatory disease affected in ocular posterior segment.Uveitis sustains a long duration and causes a significant damage of visual function.It often leads to serious complications,such as cystoid macular edema (CME),cataract,glaucoma,retinal detachment and choroidal neovascularization (CNV).In the pathological process of uveitis,inflammatory factors promote the release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) through a variety of pathways.It has been verified that VEGF level is elevated in vitreous in the patients with uveiticinduced CME.Intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs,including ranibizumab and bevacizumab,can improve the visual acuity in most patients with noninfectious uveitic-induced CME and CNV.However,intravitreously repeated injections of anti-VEGF drugs may be required in some patients.Intraocular injection of anti-VEGF drugs is an optional and effective way for those with persist macular edema and not being suitable for the use of corticosteroid or immunosuppressive therapy.However,anti-VEGF drugs may affect the efficacy of corticosteroid.Therefore,more clinical and basic researches are still needed.The status and progresses in the use of anti-VEGF drugs for uveitisinduced CME and CNV were reviewed.

Objective To inveatigate the effect of 15-HETE, a metabolite of arachidonic acid, on isolated hypoxic pulmonary arterial ringa ( PARs) , trying to find appropriate treatment for pulmonary hypertension and its complications during anesthesia in order to avoid hypoxemia. Methods Sixteen healthy Wistar rats of either sex weighing (230 ? 10) g were randomly divided into two groups : A control group breathing fresh air (FiO2 =21%) and B hypoxia group breathing hypoxic air (N2 = 90% , O2 = 10% ) in a hypoxic box. After breathing hypoxic air for 9 days the animals were anesthetized. Heart and lungs were immediately removed and PARs (0.5-1.0 mm in diameter and 3 mm in length) were prepared. Four PARs were prepared from each animal. The PARs were suspended in baths filled with Krebs-Hensleit (K-H) solution maintained at 37℃ and aerated with 95% O2 and 5% CO2. Preload was gradually increased to 0.3 g in 30 min. The isometric tension was measured using a four-channel force-displacement transducer. 15-HETE was added to K-H solution and the concentration was gradually increased from 10-8 to 10-6 mol?L-1 at 5 min intervals. Contractility of PARs was analyzed by a software of Medlab 6.0. Concentration-tension curve was drawn and contraction rates were calculated. 2 mmol?L-1 4-AP, 10-2 mol?L-1 TEA and 10-6 mol?L-1 GLYB were added to separate K-H solution baths and 40 min later 15-HETE was added in order to detennine the effect of difierent potassium channel blockers on contraction response of PARs to 15-HETE. Results With increasing concentration from 10-8 to 10-6 mol?L-1 , 15-HETE increased PARs tension gradually in a dose-dependent manner from 106% ?6% to 139% ? 4% in group A and from 113% ?6% to 163% ?6% in group B. The difference in PARs tension between group A and B was statistically significant (P

BACKGROUND:The metastatic potential of hepatocelular carcinoma cels is key factor influencing patient’s prognosis. To observe the effect of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels on metastasis of hepatocelular carcinoma is of great significance for improving the lifetime of hepatocelular carcinoma patients. OBJECTIVE:To explore the biological effect of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels on hepatocelular carcinoma cels with different metastatic potentials. METHODS:Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and hepatocelular carcinoma cel suspension with high and low metastatic potentials were respectively injected into the Transwel chamber, and after 36 hours of co-culture, ELISA method was used to detect the absorbance value as wel as cel counting method was used to observe the changes in the invasion ability of hepatocelular carcinoma cels. The effects of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels on the proliferation of hepatocelular carcinoma cel suspension with high and low metastatic potentials were determined using cel counting kit-8. PCR method was adopted to measure the expression of osteopontin, bone specific sialoproteins, integration (alpha V), transforming growth factor beta 1 and programmed cel death protein 5. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The number of migrated hepatocelular carcinoma cels was significantly lower in the co-culture group than the single culture group, and based on the semi-quantitative detection of invasion ability, the absorbance value of the co-culture group was significantly lower than that in the single culture group (P < 0.05). (2) The expression of osteopontin and bone specific sialoproteins was significantly decreased in the co-culture group with high metastatic potential (P < 0.05), but there was no change in the expression of integration (alpha V) (P> 0.05). In the co-culture group with low metastatic potential, the expression of osteopontin, bone specific sialoproteins, and integration (alpha V) were declined remarkably (P < 0.05). (3) Results from the semi-quantitative detection of proliferation ability showed that the absorbance value of the co-culture group was significantly higher than that of the single culture group (P < 0.05). (4) In the co-culture group with high metastatic potential, the expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 was up-regulated significantly (P< 0.05), but the expression of programmed cel death protein 5 showed no changes (P > 0.05). However, in the co-culture group with low metastatic potential, the expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 and programmed cel death protein 5 was both increased dramaticaly (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that the human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels reduce the invasion ability of hepatocelular carcinoma cels, and enhance their ability of proliferation.

Objective To investigate the necessity of clamping the indwelling catheters before removal in patients with cervical cancer postoperatively. Methods A total of 198 cases of patients with cervical cancer after radical hysterectomy were divided into the study group (70 cases) and the control group (128 cases) randomly according to operation time. In the study group the catheters were clamped intermittently by patients 2 days before removal, while in the control group the catheters were removed without clamping. The rate of recatheterization, urinary tract infection, as well as the residual urinary volume were compared between groups. Results There were no significant differences in the rate of urinary tract infection and recatheterization between the two groups (P>0.05). The residual urinary volume was significantly higher in the study group than that in the control group ( χ2=10.293, P=0.016). Conclusions There may be no positive effect of training the bladder function by clamping the indwelling catheters before its removal in patients after radical hysterectomy, besides, it can not change the risk of recatheterization and can increase the residual urine in the bladder 24 hours after removal of the catheter.

Objective To investigate the nursing risks in the patients undergoing radio-frequency ablation surgery during cardiac valve replacement.Methods The nursing risks in 110 patients undergoing radio-frequency ablation surgery during cardiac valve replacement were summarized to include disorder of water electrolyte and acid-base balance, arrhythmia,hypothermia,skin ulcer,reduction of effective circulating blood volume,infection and so on, so as to carry out the corresponding nursing measures. Results Ventricular fibrillation occurred in 11 patients,hypothermia after rewarming on cardiopulmonary bypass in 31 patients,left atrial bleeding after aortic de-clamping in 1 patient.All the complications were successfully controlled by corresponding management. The operation time ranged from 178 mins to 310 mins and average time was(245.32±34.40)mins.Conclusion The full-scale assessments and effective nursing interventions are the key points to improve the efficiency and success of cardiac valve replacement combined with radio-frequency ablation.

Objective:To investigate influences of two different HLA-B antigens expressed on K562 cells on receptors expression of NK cells from peripheral blood lymphocytes.Methods:Studied the alteration of the percentage of CD16+CD56+ cells and the percentage of KIR3DL1+ cells before and after PBMC interaction with K562 cells for 24 hours,and also compared the percentage of CD16+CD56+ cells and the percentage of KIR3DL1+ cells after PBMC interaction with two different kind of K562 cells transfected with HLA-B39 and HLA-B51 respectively.Results:After PBMCs were incubated with K562 cells for 24 hours,the percentage of CD16+CD56+ cells and the percentage of KIR3DL1+ cells were both increased.However,after PBMCs were incubated with K562-HLA-B51 cells for 24 hours,the percentage of KIR3DL1+ cells and the percentage of CD16+CD56+ cells were both decreased in comparison with that interaction with K562-HLA-B39 cells.Conclusion:CD16 up-regulation was associated with an up-regulation of inhibitory receptors(KIR3DL1).The interaction between HLA-Bw4 and KIR3DL1 would down-regulate the expression of KIR3DL1.In addition,KIR3DL1 down-regulation was associated with down-regulation of activating receptors(CD16).

Objective This study was to compare the effects of chronic experimental stress and aging on insulin sensitivity at insulin receptor of liver plasma membranes and its autophosphorylation in the aged mice compared with those in the young and the adult diabetes-susceptible mice. Methods Diabetes-susceptible mice was induced by streptozotocin in 40 1.5-month-old mice (young mice), 40 15-month-old mice (adult mice) and 40 20-month-old mice (aged mice). These mice were randomly divided into the stress groups and control groups, respectively. Each group contained 20 mice. Stress groups were exposed to multiple stressors (restrain, rotation, crowding) for 6 weeks. The levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG) and fasting plasma insulin (FIns) were measured. The index of insulin sensitivity (ISI) was calculated. The numbers (R_~1 , R_~2 , R) and affinity (K_~1 , K_~2 , K) of insulin receptors on liver plasma membranes were investigated by using Scatchard analysis. The numbers of insulin-stimulated (10~-7 mol/L) phosphorylated insulin receptor (PINSR) on liver plasma membranes was assayed by ELISA. Results After 6-week stress, FBG levels were significantly higher with aging 〔young mice: (10.3?6.2)mol/L, adult mice: (15.2?3.6)mol/L, aged mice: (18.9?2.9)mol/L, P
