· AIM: To search an easy and simple way for intraocular implantation after the eye evisceration.· METHODS: Fifteen healthy New Zealand rabbits were divided into 5 groups according to the sacrifice time, and each group included 3 rabbits; the left eye received the injection of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) bone cement (2g per mL), while the right eye served as control. Under general anesthetia, a 3mm incision was made on the sclera,and the eye contents and pigment tissues were extruded out with fingers. Then, PMMA bone cement (2g per ml) was injected through the scleral incision. Both the operated eye and control eye of the rabbits were enucleated and weighed,The reaction of the operated eye (macroscopically and histopathologically) was noted at frequent interval. The obtained data were then analyzed with ANOVA (SPSS11.5).· RESULTS: There was swelling of eyelids and conjunctiva at the early time after the injection, but no significant difference between the weight of the left and right eyes was noted,Histopathologic examination showed scleral and other tissues necrosis at early period, and then the tissues reaction turned into a great deal of cell proliferation and finally into extensive fibro-connective tissues. Three months after the operation,neovascularization was observed in the cornea of the operated eyes. Histopathologic examination showed formation of fibro-membrane around the intraocular implant,and disappearance of the inflammation.· CONCLUSION: The method of injecting PMMA bone cement (2g per ml) to form an intraocular implant is quite simple and economical; this method is also easy to use clinically.

Objective To study the different expressions of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligang(RANKL) mRNA in spleens of rats fed with diet of low calcium and high fluoride. Methods A 2× 2×2 factorial design was used and the factors were calcium, fluoride and action time. In the design, 40 Wistar rats [average body mass(118.9±13.5)g] were divided into four groups randomly by weight: control with normal diet (0.790%, calcium), low calcium group with low calcium intake(0.063%, calcium), high fluoride group with normal diet and high fluoride intake(100 mg/L, fluoride) and low calcium and high fluoride group with low calcium and high fluoride intake. After 4 and 8 months, 5 rats of each group were sacrificed and total RNA was extracted from spleen. And the expression levels of RANKL mRNA were determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results At time of 4 months, the expression level of RANKL mRNA was 0.13± 0.05,0.13± 0.03,0.17±0.02,0.27± 0.05 and at time of 8 months, it was 0.11 ± 0.01,0.16 ± 0.02,0.16± 0.03,0.36 ± 0.07 in control group, low calcium group, high fluoride group, low calcium with high fluoride group, repectively. The factorial design AVONA showed that low calcium and high fluoride had significant effects on RANKL mRNA expression(F = 40.224,56.679, all P < 0.05) while action time had not(F = 2.850, P > 0.05 ). The interactions of low calcium with high fluoride or high fluoride with action time were signifieant(F = 7.247, 18.789, all P < 0.05) while the interaction of high fluoride with action time was not(F = 1.751, P > 0.05). Conclusions Low calcium alone or high fluoride alone or low calcium with high fluoride or low calcium with action time can increase the the RANKL mRNA expression level. High fluoride does not affect the RANKL mRNA level as the action time is prolonged.

Abatract:Objective To study the relationship of the processes of chronic hepatitis B infection with the degree of depression and the level of serum Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).Methods 126 patients with different processes of CHB infection were divided into 3 groups,which were asymptomatic HBV carriers (ASC group),liver cirrhosis (LC group)and hepatic cell carcinoma (HCC group).40 healthy volunteers were selected as normal control.Questionnaire was used to study demographic data and the degree of depression was assessed by using Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17).The levels of the serum BDNF were detected by ELISA.Results The ratio of divorced or widowed in LC and HCC groups was higher than that of the control (χ2 = 6.354,11.972;P < 0.01).Severity of depression in ASC,LC and HCC groups was higher than that of the control (χ2 = 16.151,42.150,49.636;P <0.01).Severity of depression in ASC and LC group was lower than that of HCC group (χ2 = 14.345,28.772;P <0.01).The role of BDNF (x ±s,ng/ml)in ASC,LC,HCC and control group were 11.10±3.26,8.66 ± 3.11,7.39 ±2.52 and 12.18±2.59.The levels of serum BDNF in LC and HCC group was lower than ASC group and the control (P <0.01).The process of CHB infection had positive correlation with the score of HAMD (r=0.719,P <0.01),but had negative correlation with thelevels of serum BDNF (r=-0.504,P <0.01). There was negative correlation relationship between the score of HAMD and the levels of serum BDNF (r=-0.526,P <0.01).Conclusion The process of CHB infection can obviously aggravate the degree of depression,and reduce the levels of BDNF gradually.The levels of serum BDNF can be suggested as a psychological laboratory reference basis for the CHB pa-tients with depression.It is expected to improve the level of clinical diagnosis and treatment in CHB with depression.

Objective To explore the effect of blocking BTLA-HVEM (herpesvirus entry mediator-B and T lymphocyte attenuator) pathway on dendritic cell function and the related immunological mechanisms. Methods Murine BTLA extracellular domain eukaryotic expression vector psBTLA was constructed by gene recombination and transfected CHO by Lipofection method. Mouse bone marrow cells were induced to differentiate into DCs by GM-CSF plus IL-4. Expression of BTLA and HVEM on DCs was detected after HSPT0-TC-1 peptide complex stimulation by FACS. Expression of BT-1 and secretion of IL-12 were detected after HSP70-TC-1 peptide complex plus psBTLA transfected CHO culture supernatant stimulation on DCs. Pretreated DCs co-cultured with the same genetic background mouse splenocytes and lymphocytes proliferation and cytokine secretion were detected. Effect of psBTLA gene transfer in vivo on BT-1 expression of DCs and tumor growth on tumor-bearing mice was detected. Results Extracellular domain of murine BTLA was successfully constructed, psBTLA stable transfection CHO cells were obtained and expression of BTLA extracellular domain(sBTLA) was detected the in its culture supernatant. BTLA and HVEM expression of DCs were increased after stimulation by the antigen peptide complex. When DCs were treated with antigen peptide complex plus culture supernatant containing sBTLA, B7-1 expression and IL-12 secretion were increased. Co-cultured with splenocytes, lymphocytes proliferation and cytokine secretion, such as IL-2 and IFN-γ,, were also increased. Gene transfection with psBTLA in vivo promoted B7-1 expression on DCs and inhibited cervical cancer cells growth. Conclusion Blockade of BTLA-HVEM inhibitory pathway with sBTLA can further improve DCs function, activation of lymphocytes and promote antitumor immune response.
