Objective To detect the effects of plasmin combined with hyaluronidase or hexafluoride SF6 on inducing posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). Methods Eighteen young pigmented rabbits were randomly divided into group A, B, and C with 6 rabbits in each. All of the right eyes were the experimental eyes and the left ones was the control. The right eyes in group A, B, and C were injected with plasmin 1 U, plasmin 1 U and hyaluronidase 20 U, and plasmin 1 U and SF_6 0.5 ml, respectively; while all of the left eyes underwent intra-vitreous injection with balanced salt solution 0.1 ml. The eyes were observed by indirect ophthalmoscopy, slit lamp examination, biomicroscopy, B-ultrasonography, and electroretinography (ERG) before and after injection respectively. At last, the retinal sections were examined by light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Results The results of scanning microscopy showed incomplete PVD in 2 (33.3%) experimental eyes in group A, and complete PVD in 4 (66.7%) experimental eyes in both group B and C, and the positive rate of PVD in both group B and C significantly differed from that in group A (P0.05). The results of transmission electron microscopy and light microscopy indicated unchanged retinal structure. Conclusions Compared with the application of only plasmin, plasmin combined with hyaluronidase or hexafluoride SF_6 can induce complete PVD more efficiently and do no harm to the retina.

Objective To observe the alteration of scavenger receptor class A types Ⅰand Ⅱ (SR-AⅠ/Ⅱ) gene knock-out on lipid metabolism in mice fed with high-fat diet, and explore the underlying mechanism. Method The SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out and wild-type male mice were fed with normal and high-fat diet for 12 w. Thereafter, the level of lipid metabolism (such as the levels of lipids in blood and liver) was detected with enzyme method or oil red O staining, and the expression of scavenger receptor class B typeⅠ(SR-BⅠ) and CD36 in liver was analyzed by RT-PCR. Results Under high-fat diet condition, as compared with wild-type mice, the levels of TG, TC, LDL and HDL in SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out mice were decreased at 3, 6, 12 w (P0.05). Conclusion The alteration of lipid metabolism induced by high-fat diet in SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out mice might be relative with the up-regulated SR-BⅠmRNA expression and the counter transport of peripheral lipids to liver.

Objective To investigate the clinical therapeutic effect of Xuebijing injection for treatment of patients with diabetic nephropathy(DN)and its mechanism. Methods 60 DN patients were randomly divided into Xuebijing group and control group(each,30 cases). The patients in both groups received western conventional treatment,and the patients in Xuebijing group received additionally Xuebijing injection intra-venous injection once a day for 14 days. The fasting blood glucose(FBG),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),urinary albumin excretion rate(AER),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum creatinine(SCr),hematocrit(HCT),fibrinogen(Fg),whole blood viscosity,total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)and interleukin -6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and urine β2-microglobulin(β2-MG)levels before and after treatment were detected,and the curative effect was also observed in both groups. Results In the control group blood FBG,BUN,SCr,TC,IL-6 and TNF-αafter treatment were significantly decreased and HDL-C significantly increased compared with those before treatment(all P<0.05). Compared with those before treatment,in Xuebijing group after Xuebijing therapy,blood FBG,β2-MG,AER,BUN, SCr,TC,TG,HCT,blood viscosity,IL-6 and TNF-αwere significantly decreased,and HDL-C was obviously increased,but there were no significant differences in HbA1c,LDL-C and Fg before and after treatment. The above indexes were changed significantly in Xuebijing group compared with those in control group〔FBG(μg/L):6.98±1.14 vs. 9.73±1.62,β2-MG(μg/L):32.1±10.9 vs. 57.2±15.1,AER(μg/min):86.0±28.1 vs. 152.0±51.6,BUN (mmol/L):12.4±8.1 vs. 19.5±8.9,SCr(μmol/L):301.2±151.9 vs. 371.3±168.6,HCT:0.283±0.075 vs. 0.351±0.059,TC(mmol/L):3.4±1.8 vs. 4.1±1.5,TG(mmol/L):3.4±1.5 vs. 3.6±1.7,HDL-C(mmol/L):1.90±0.75 vs. 1.50±0.25, IL-6 (ng/L):8.96±2.07 vs. 12.75±2.47, TNF-α(pmol/L):17.85±4.75 vs. 20.87±4.90,P<0.05 or P<0.01〕. The total efficiency in Xuebijing group was significantly higher than that in control group(83.3%vs. 36.7%,P<0.01). Conclusion Xuebijing injection has significant protective effects on patients with DN,and the mechanism might be associated with increasing tissue perfusion and inhibiting excessive inflammatory cytokines release.

Objective To detect the levels of IL-9,IL-17,and IFN-γ in CD4+T cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with RA and healthy controls were obtained,then the CD4+ T lymphocytes were tested by immunomagnetic beads.The protein levels of IL-9,IFN-γ and IL-17 were measured by flow cytometry (FCM).The mRNA levels of IL-9,IL-17,RORγt and IFN-γwere also detected by qRT-PCR.Data were analyzed by comparison between groups using variance analysis,and Pearson's correlation analysis was used for linear correlation analysis.Results The isolation of untouched human CD4+ T cells from PBMC was effective and its purity was over 90％.The protein levels of IL-9,IL-17,IFN-γwere higher in patients with active RA as compared with patients with inactive RA (P＜0.01) which were (1.62±0.23)％ vs (1.15±0.24)％(P＜0.01),(1.47±0.20)％ vs (1.04±0.26)％(P＜0.01) and (8.1±0.6)％ vs (6.9±1.0)％(P＜0.01) respectively,so did the patients with RA when compared with healthy controls (P＜0.01).The mRNA levels of IL-9,IL-17,RORγt and IFN-γ were higher in patients with active RA as compared with inactive RA patients (P＜0.01),which were (3.0±0.6) vs (1.8±0.4) (p＜0.01) (4.2±0.9)vs (2.3±0.7) (P＜0.01),(4.1±0.7)vs (2.9±0.3) (P＜0.01)and (4.0±0.8)vs (2.3±0.6) (P＜0.01) respectively,so did the patients with RA when compared with healthy controls (P＜0.01).Intracelluar IL-9 levels were positively correlated with IL-17 (r=0.632,P=0.001),IFN-γ (r=0.515,P=0.008),DAS28 (r=0.519,P=0.009) and ESR (r=0.857,P=0.038) but had no correlation with CRP (r=0.38,P=0.61).Conclusion The levels of IL-17,IL-9,IFN-γare higher in the PBMCs of RA patients,and these cytokines may participate in the pathogenesis of RA.

Objective To investigate the role of prokinetic agent itopride in colonic preparation before colonoscopy examination in patients with constipation.Methods A total of 115 outpatients with history of chronic constipation who requested colonoscopy were collected.According to colonic preparation proposal,patients were divided into three groups.Group A (39 cases) took standard dosage of PEG-E solution six hours before colonoscopy examination.Group B (38 cases) took 150 mg itopride 30 minutes before administration of lavage solution.Group C (38 cases) took itopride 150 mg at 7 am,12 am and 8 pm the day before the examination and on the examination day took the same medicine as that of group B.The blood pressure,heart rate and blood electrolytes were monitored before and after taking medicine in the patients of three groups.Quality of colon cleansing of each group was observed and side effects were also observed.One-way analysis of variance (least significant difference,LSD) test was performed for pairwise comparisons among the three groups.Chi-square test was applied for count data.Results Both group A and group B excluded one patient because of malignant carcinoma with colon stricture under colonoscopy,and 113 patients completed the whole colon examination.There was no significant difference in the baseline patients' data of three groups.The colon cleaning score of group C (7.28±1.11) was higher than those of group A and B (6.55±1.18 and 6.51±1.16,LSD test,both P＜0.05).The frequency of bowel movements defecation of group C (8.31± 1.32) was more than those of group A and group B (7.11± 1.41 and 6.94± 1.51,LSD,test,both P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in terms of intestinal bubble scores,blood pressure,heart rate,blood electrolytes the uncomfortable degree of colonic preparation and rate of side effects of the three groups.Conclusion The colonic preparation can be safely and effectively improved by taking high dose of itopride one day before and on the day of colonoscopy examination.

Objective To observe the changing levels of serum sFas before and after intravenous i mmunoglobulin (IVIG) treatment of incomplete Kawasaki disease (IKD),to explore the roles of sFas in the pathogenesis of IKD and IVIG treatment mechanism.Methods Thirty eight cases of IKD children were selected as experimental group and 20 examples of the same age of children as the control group.The IKD children were treated by IVIG in combination with aspirin (ASP) ; and blood test was performed before treatment,3 days after treatment,and 14 days after treatment,respectively.Dual-resistant sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of serum sFas,plasma Fibrinogen (PT-D),d-dimer (D-D),and c-reactive protein (CRP).Results The levels of serum sFas,PT-D,D-D,and CRP were significantly higher than the control group for IKD children before treatment[(0.55 ± 0.14)ng/L vs (0.24 ±0.04) ng/L,(552.3 ± 147.2) mg/dl vs (277.3 ±82.5)mg/dl,(649.0 ±201.6) μg/L vs (315.4 ±91.8)μg/L,and(72.2 ±28.7)mg/L vs (7.2 ±2.9)mg/L; t' =12.41,9.11,8.64,13.82;All P ＜ 0.05] ;3 days after treatment,compared with those before treatment and control group,the sFas level of IKD children at the third day after treatment was significantly decreased compared to that before treatment and control groups,respectively [(0.43 ± 0.09) ng/L vs (0.55 ± 0.14) ng/L,(0.24 ± 0.04) ng/L,F =47.624,All P ＜0.05] ;For the level of sFas at the 14th day after treatment,no statistical significance was found between IKD children and the control group[(0.24 ±0.05) ng/L vs (0.24 ±0.04) ng/L,t =0.596,P ＞ 0.05].Conclusions The abnormally increased serum sFas level before IVIG treatment suggests that dysfunction of apoptosis be involved in the pathogenesis of the IKD.Intravenous immunoglobulin treatment may be involved in the apoptosis process.
