Objective To investigate the protection and mechanism of procyanidins (PC) against H2O2 induced oxidative damage of human trabecular meshwork cells (HTMC) in order to provide an experimental foundation for glaucoma clinical treatment.Methods HTMC were cultured and then divided randomly into 5 groups.As untreated group:Normal cultured HTMC;Control group:Normal cultured HTMC + H2O2 (500 μmol · L-1 for 1 hour);Treated group:Normal cultured HTMC + H2O2 (500 μmol ·L-1 for 1 hour) + PC (PC fmal concentrations were 0.02 g · L-1,0.05 g · L-1,0.10 g· L-1).Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to investigate the expression of mitochondrial complex Ⅰ mRNA.Results Compared with untreated group (1.000 0 ± 0.000 0),the differences of mitochondrial complexⅠ mRNA expression in 0.02 g · L-1 PC (0.401 3 ±0.010 3),0.05 g · L-1 PC (0.791 5 ± 0.008 5) groups were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.01),but the 0.10 g ·L-1 PC group (1.043 0 ± 0.062 2) had no significant differences (P ＞ 0.05).The differences between PC treated groups and control group were statistically significant (P ＜0.01),which showed HTMC treated with PC could increase the expression of mitochondrial complex Ⅰ mRNA.The differences in each PC treated groups were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01),which showed the expression of mitochondrial complex Ⅰ mRNA were increased along with the concentration of PC gradually increased.Conclusion Exogenetic PC can increase the expression of mitochondrial complex Ⅰ mRNA in the oxidative damaged HTMC,and in a certain range of concentration,the protective effects of PC have the positive relationship of dose-effect,which suggest that PC may be a good candidate for further study of the clinical treatment of glaucoma.

Objective To compare effects between laparoscopic operation and laparotomy in the treatment of acute colonic perforation, and to explore the safety of laparoscopic surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 42 cases of acute colonic perforation treated in our hospital from January 2008 to December 2014, including 22 cases of laparoscopic surgery and 20 cases of traditional open surgery.The surgical treatment effects were compared between the two groups. Results As compared with the open group, the laparoscopic group had shorter operation time [(160.5 ±25.4) min vs.(210.3 ±45.6) min, t=-4.426, P=0.000], less amount of blood loss [(112 ±21) ml vs.(220 ±53) ml, t=-8.834, P=0.000], earlier enterostomy exhaust time [(4.2 ±1.2) d vs.(7.3 ±3.4) d, t=-4.016, P=0.000], less pulmonary infections [9.1% (2/22) vs.40.0%(8/20),χ2 =3.945, P=0.047], shorter total hospitalization time [(10.3 ±2.6) d vs.(15.6 ±2.4) d, t=-6.839, P=0.000], and lower costs of hospitalization [(2.26 ±0.45) ×104 yuan vs.(3.16 ±0.38) ×104 yuan, t=-6.966, P=0.000]. There was no significant difference in the perioperative mortality and wound infection rate between the two groups (P >0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic surgery for acute colonic perforation has advantages of little surgical trauma, less bleeding, quick postoperative intestinal function recovery, low pulmonary infection rate, short hospitalization time, and low hospitalization costs, being an effective, safe, and feasible method worthy of clinical promotion.

Graphene ( GN) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes ( MWCNT) composites were coated on glassy carbon electrode ( GCE ) and then poly ( nicotinic acid ) ( PNA ) was electrodeposited on the modified electrode. The electrochemical behavior of pyridoxine hydrochloride ( VB6 ) was investigated at the modified electrode by cyclic voltammetry ( CV ) and differential pulse voltammetry ( DPV ) . Results showed the oxidation current of VB6 at the GN-MWCNT/PNA/GCE was obviously larger than that at GCE, PNA/GCE and GN/MWCNT/GCE. The oxidation process of VB6 was an irreversible diffusion-controlled process involving one electron and two protons. The liner range between the peak current intensity of DPV and the concentration of VB6 was 0 . 05-200 μmol/L with a detection limit of 0 . 02 μmol/L ( S/N=3 ) . The modified electrode showed a good reproducibility with a relative standard deviation of 3 . 1% ( n=8 ) . The proposed method was applied to the analysis of vitamin B6 in vitamin B6 tablets and compound vitamin B tablets with recoveries between 96 . 1%-104 . 5%.

Objective:To observe the expression of wnt1 in patients with oral submucous fibrosis(OSF) before and after treatment.Methods:40 patients with OSF were treated with triamcinolone acetonide combined with salvia miltiorrhiza,Before and after 4 weeks treatment,pain score of VAS and mouth opening(MO) were examined.wnt1 protein in saliva and gingival crevicular fluid(GCF) was examined by ELISA,wnt1 mRNA expression in buccal mucosa tissue was examined by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR.20 healthy subjects were served as the controls.Results:The expression of wnt1 in OSF group[buccal tissue RT-PCR (36.89 ± 10.40) × 10-5,saliva ELISA (61.61 ± 4.45) ng/L,GCF ELISA (56.20 ± 3.65) ng/L] were significantly higher than that of control group [buccal tissue RT-PCR (4.63 ± 1.53) × 10-5,saliva ELISA (40.26 ± 3.00) ng/L,GCF ELISA (53.45 ± 1.74) ng/L)] (P ＜ 0.01).In OSF group,after treatment VAS was decreased(P ＜0.01),MO increased(P ＜0.01)),Buccal mucosa wnt1 mRNA level was positively correlated with wnt1 protein in saliva and GCF,negativity with MO (P ＜ 0.05),saliva wnt1 was positively correlated with VAS and GCF wnt1,negitively with MO(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:Wnt1 might take part in the occurrence and development of OSF.The detection of wnt1 in saliva and GCF might be a noninvasive method for the evaluation of OSF treatment.

Objective This study detects the expression of secreted frizzled-related protein 1 (SFRP1) in healthy patients and patients with chronic periodontitis (CP) and explores the relationship between SFRP1 and the occurrence and development of CP. Methods First, 28 patients forming the CP group were further divided into mild, moderate, and severe CP subgroups according to clinical attachment loss (CAL) data. Ten healthy volunteers were recruited in the control group. Gingival crevi-cular fluid (GCF) was collected from all of the patients, and the concentration of SFRP1 in the GCF samples was detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Next, gingival lesions were obtained from 22 patients in the CP group and healthy gingival tissues were obtained from the 10 healthy patients in the control group. Immunohistochemical analysis for SFRP1 was used to analyze the correlation between the expression of SFRP1 and the severity of CP based on staining intensities. Results The concentration of SFRP1 in GCF samples taken from of the CP group (281.07 ng·L-1±33.37 ng·L-1) was signifi-cantly higher than that in samples taken from the control group (245.30 ng·L-1±35.69 ng·L-1) (P<0.05). A significant positive correlation was observed between the concentration of SFRP1 in GCF and CAL (r=0.651, P<0.001). Furthermore, the SFRP1 scores in the CP groups (4.500±0.913) were significantly higher than those in the control group (2.800±1.135) (P<0.001). SFRP1 scores did not vary significantly among the CP subgroups (P>0.05). Conclusion SFRP1 expression in the CP groups was significantly higher than that in the control group. Thus, SFRP1 may play a significant role in the development of CP.
