Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2011;29(3):226-229
Background Expulsive choroidal haemorrhage is a severe complication during the intraocular operation.To create a feasible animal model of expulsive choroidal haemorrhage is very important for the study of its nature disease course and therefore prevention and treatment.Objecfive Present study was to modify the method of establishing acute choroidal haemorrhage animal model and explore the risk factor and pathogenesis mechanism.Methods The suprachoroidal explusive haemorrhage animal models were created by modifying the Zauberman method to ligate 2-4 vortex veins and rapidly intravenous injection of 250 ml normal solution to elevate the intraocular pressure(IOP),and then low the IOP by opening the anterior chamber via limbal incision.The bleeding of choroid and detachment of retina were examined by B-type ultrasound immediately,1,2 and 4 weeks after operation to assess the disease alteration with lapse of time.The samples of eyeballs were prepared in mentioned above time points for the histopathologieal evaluation of retina tissue.Results The animal models of suprachoroidal explusive haemorrhage were established bv this modified method with the successful rate 100%,and the manifestation resembled a clinical disease course.The shape,range and location of choroidal bleeding and retinal detachment were determined,and the diagnosis and change of suprachoroidal explusive haemorrhage with time were clarified using B-uhrasonography.The histopathological change revealed the breaking of Brueh's membrane and retinal pigmentary layer.It was verified that the dominant pathological change of retina was retinal destroy in 1 week after operation,and in 4 weeks after operation,the main pathological mechanism was proliferation of fibroblasts and collagen fiber. Conclusion The consequence procedure of modified Zauberman method,quickly intravenous injection of normal solution and puncture of the anterior chamber can create an ideal animal model of suprachoroidal explusive haemorrhage.The rapid IOP descent is a main risk factor of supraehoroidal explusive haemorrhage.The results of supraehoroidal explusive haemorrhage is severe destroy of retina and ehoroid.This study implies that supraehoroidal explusive haemorrhage is likely to be prevented and treated in the early stage.

Objective To investigate the effect of sorafenib in ameliorating renal fibrosis and its possible mechanisms.Methods Rats were subjected to unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO ) and intragastrically administered sorafenib.NRK-52E cells were treated with transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)and sorafenib. HE staining was used to visualize renal fibrosis.α-SMA and E-cadherin expressions in kidney tissue and NRK-52E cells were performed using immunofluorescence.The cell cycle of NRK-52E cells was determined by flow cytometry analysis.Smad3 and p-Smad3 protein expressions in NRK-52E cells were detected by Western blot analysis. Results HE staining showed that kidney interstitial fibrosis,tubular atrophy,and inflammatory cell infiltration in the sorafenib-treated UUO groups were significantly decreased compared with the vehicle-treated UUO group (P<0.05).Compared with those in UUO and TGF-β-stimulated NRK-52E groups,the expression of a-SMA decreased but E-cadherin expression increased in the UUO kidneys and NRK-52E cells of the sorafenib-treated groups (P<0.05).After 24 h stimulation with TGF-β1 5 ng/mL,the number of cell cycles arrested in G0/G1 phase was significantly increased and the number of cells that entered G2 ,S phase decreased (P<0 .0 5 ).Compared with that in TGF-β-stimulated NRK-52E groups, p-Smad3 decreased in the sorafenib-treated groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Our results suggest that sorafenib may be useful for the treatment of renal fibrosis through suppressing TGF-β/Smad3 signaling.

Cisplatin is an anti-tumor drug which is widely used for the treatment of various solid tumors. Unfortunately, seriousside-effects have affected patients, such as hearing loss. Up to now, there is no clear and effective measure to protect the cisplatin-induced ototoxicity in the clinical use of cisplatin studies indicated that autophagy may be involved in the whole process of cisplatin-induced hearing loss. In this review, the relationship between cisplatin ototoxicity and autophagy was reviewed. It is hoped that this study can provide reference for further study of cisplatin ototoxicity and intervention of autophagy with autophagy activator or inhibitor.
