Background Proliferative vitreo-retinal diseases include all the overly proliferative diseases of eyes.Many kinds of cytokines play important roles in their pathogenesis.Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α(HIF-1α)participates in the pathogenesis of a lot of ischemic diseases.HIF-1α may play an important role in the pathogenesis of proliferative vitreo-retinal diseases. Objective Present study was to observe the expression of HIF-1α in vitreous body in the eyes with proliferative vitreo-retinal diseases.The vitreous samples were collected during the vitrectomy from 71 eyes of 69 patients(experimental group)including 39 eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)and 32 eyes with proliferative Vitreoretinopathy(PVR).Sixteen eyes of 16 patients as the cases control group,including 14 eyes with macular hole(MH)and 2 eyes with epiretinal macular membrane(ERM).What is more,there were 8 vitreous fluid samples of the normal control group.The concentrations of HIF-1α in vitreous body were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The written informed consent was obtained from each patient before any medical procedure. Results The concentrations of HIF-1α in vitreous body in the eyes of experimental group,the cases control group and the normal control group were(294.08±2.97)、(260.41±8.29)、(16.38±3.56)mg/L respectively,showing a significant difference among the three groups(F=248.77,P=0.00).The concentrations of HIF-1α in vitreous body were obviously increased in the eyes of experimental group in comparison with the normal control group and the cases control group respectively(t=22.25,P=0.00;t=2.70,P=0.00 respectively).The concentrations of HIF-1α in vitreous body were increased in the eyes of the cases control group in comparison with the normal control group eyes(t=14.21,P=0.00).There was inferior correlation between the concentrations of HIF-1α in vitreous body in the eyes of experimental group and the course of ophthalmopathy. Conclusion Intravitreous HIF-1α level regulates in the eyes with proliferative vitreo-retinal diseases. Expression of HIF-1α in vitreous had inferior correlation with the course of ophthalmopathy. HIF-1α may play an important role in the pathogenesis of proliferative vitreo-retinal diseases.

AIM: To report the use of modified four ports pars plana vitrectomy in managing a dislocated posterior chamber intraocular lens.METHODS: A young man with bilateral pseudophakia and dislocated PC-IOLs had undergone modified four ports pars plana vitrectomy in relocating a dislocated posterior chamber intraocular lens. This procedure was surgically less tedious and demanding compared with previous methods of IOL retrieval.RESULTS: No significant intra- or post-operative complication was noted. The visual recovery of the operated eye was rapid with the best corrected visual acuity at 14 months post-operation being 0.5. In contrast, the right eye without operation due to patient refusal developed total retinal detachment with hand movement visual acuity.CONCLUSION: Modified four ports pars plana vitrectomy may be a more ophthalmic surgeon friendly alternative in the retrieval of dislocated IOL.

BACKGROUND:The establishment of animal models of Parkinson’s disease plays an important role in clinical and basic experiments of Parkinson’s disease, and its stability directly affected study results. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the behavior and pathological changes of rats with Parkinson’s disease established by unilateral two-point injection with 6-hydroxydopamine.
METHODS:A total of 62 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into experimental group (n=50) and normal group (n=12). Using stereotatic technique, 6-hydroxydopamine was injected into the right substantia nigra
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 2 weeks, after induction with apomorphine, left rotation speed>7 r/min was observed in only 22 rats of the experimental group. No significant difference in the number of rotation between 2 and 4 weeks was detected (P>0.05). Tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine content significantly reduced in the model group. Results indicated that unilateral two-point injection of 6-hydroxydopamine could be used to
successful y establish rat models of Parkinson’s disease with similar behaviors and pathologies.

Objective To continually observe the monocyte chemoattraetant protein-1(MCP-1) expression in rats with anilateral ureteml obstruction, and to explore the relationship between MCP-1 and p38MAPK, and as well as the nuclear transcription faetor-кB (NF-кB). Method Thirty-six rots were randomly assigned to sham op-eration group (contorl group) and unilateral ureteral obstruction group (UUO group). Renal tissues were examined under light microscope 8 h,24 h and 72 h after operation, Immunhistochemistry was used to measure the expression of MCP-1 and NF-кB. RT-PCR and Western bot were employed to determine MCP-1 mRNA and p38MAPK pro-tein,respectively.Serum creatinine and ure nitrogen were examined with biochemistry methods. Results Com-pared with control group, the expression of MCP-1 mRNA in UUO group dramatically increased (control group:0.401±0.039;UUO group 8 h:0.894±0.137;24 h: 1.416±0.135;72 h: 1.894±0.14, P<0.05).The explosion of MCP-1 protein in renal interstitium of UUO group also markedly increased (control group: 50.08±3.210. UUO group 8 h:108.25±4.325;24 h: 179.34±3.237;72 h: 230.12±3.026, P<0.05),and the expressions of NF-кB and p38MAPK in UUO group were also stimulated (p38MAPK: control group: 110.65±9.734. UUO group 8 h:200.15±8.326; 24 h:272.74±7.244;72 h:549.11±9.544, P<0.05). There were positive correlations between MCP-1 and p38MAPK as well as NF-кB(r=0.74,r=0.81,P<0.01).Conclusions Tne increased expression of MCP-1 may participate in the injury mechanisms of renal tubulointesti-tinm in UUO rats. The increased expression of p38MAPK may induce NF-кB expression in the tubules, and then NF-кB promotes the expression of MCP-1.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effects of moxibustion and treadmill exercise on transcutaneous oxygen tension and exercise capacity in lower limbs of peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
METHODSTotally 58 mild-to-moderate PAD patients were assigned to the control group (18 cases), the moxibustion group (20 cases), and the treadmill exercise group (20 cases) by random digit table. Patients in the control group received conventional drug therapy for 12 weeks. Patients in the moxibustion group and the treadmill exercise group additionally received moxibustion [at Zusanli (ST36), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Yongquan (KI1)] and treadmill exercise respectively, once per day, 5 times per week for 12 weeks in total. Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) , transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcPO₂), 6-min walking test (6MWT), and walking impairment questionnaire (WIQ) were assessed before and after treatment.
RESULTSCompared with the control group and the same group before treatment, there was no statistical difference in ABI in the moxibustion group and the treadmill exercise group (P > 0.05). But TcPO₂, 6MWT, and WIQ were obviously elevated (P < 0.01). Besides, 6MWT and WIQ assessment of the treadmill exercise group were better than that of the moxibustion group (P < 0.01) after intervention.
CONCLUSIONMoxibustion and treadmill exercise could improve the exercise capacity and TcPO₂of lower limbers in PAD patients.
