1.Corneal histopathology changes of the soft contact lens long-time wearers
International Eye Science 2015;(4):646-649
AIM:To investigate the corneal histopathology changes induced by soft contact lenses ( SCL) at diffent time.
METHODS: Central and peripheral cornea structures of myopic patients wearing SCL (150 cases) and the control goups ( 150 cases ) were observed with confocal microscopy. The examinations were performed 1, 3, 5, 8 and 10a after contact lenses wearing respectively.
RESULTS: After wearing the contact lenses for 5a, the cell density of corneal surface epithelial was lower in SCL wearers compared with control goups (P<0. 05) and the corneal vesicle and corneal gutata might be occasionally discovered. The density of Langerhans cells both in the central and peripheral cornea was higher in SCL group ( P<0. 05 ), and the tortuosity of the nerve fibers was significantly increased in the eye wearing SCL compared with control group. The densities of anterior stromal cells were lower while the microdot densities in the stroma were higher in SCL group than that in control group ( P<0.05 ) . The polymorphology of corneal endothelial cells was more obvious in SCL group, but the densities of endothelial cells were similar between two groups ( P>0.05). The SCL wearers showed a thinner thickness of central corneal epithelium than control group (P<0. 05).CONCLUSION: The corneal morphologic changes are more obvious with the longer time, and the changes is not ignored.
2.The status and progress of relationship between dyslipidemia and diabetic retinopathy
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2016;32(2):210-212
Dyslipidemia plays an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR).A preliminary study found that low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,apolipoprotein (Apo) B and Apo B / Apo A1 ratio were positively correlated with DR,while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol,Apo A1 was negatively correlated with DR and proliferative DR.Reducing the blood fats to be helpful to DR control.However,the mechanism of hyperlipidemia in the pathogenesis of DR,the reason of dyslipidemia in diabetic patients and the interaction between hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia in DR are not clear yet.Moreover,there is no predictive indicators related to blood lipid for DR.Understanding the relationship between dyslipidemia and DR can provide definite evidence for fat-reducing therapy for DR control.
6.Estrogen receptor gene polymorphisms and risk of women's malignant tumor related to estrogen

Estrogen receptors(ER)has two subtype alpha and beta.It is a kind of glycoprotein which can bond to estrogen(E).They distribute all kinds of organs and tissues,especially in procreation organs and breast tissue.Study showed that estrogen receptor gene polymorphisms had been associated with the risk of carcinogenesis of endometrial cancer,ovarian cancer and breast cancer.We reviewed the molecule structure, function,gene polymorphisms of ER,and the relationship with endometrial cancer,ovarian cancer and breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum interleukin 8(IL-8) level in children with thyroid disfunction and its clinical significance in children with autoimmune thyroid disease(AITD).Method Serum IL-8 of 30 children with hyperthyroidism,16 children with hypotyroidism and 20 health children were detected by double antibody enzyme linked immunossorbent assay(ELISA).Results Serum IL-8 levels in hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism children were significantly higher than that in controls(P0.05).With the remission of the diseases, IL-8 levels decreased; there was a significant difference between serum IL-8 levels in patients before and after therapy (P

Objective To explore the methods of extraction, isolation, purification, and biological activities of ray cartilage glycosaminoglycans (RCG). Methods RCG was purified by guanidine hydrochlorid extraction, acetone fractional precipitation, ultrafiltration, and Sephadex column chromatography. The purity and molecular mass of RCG were measured by means of HPLC. The model of mouse with Lewis lung carcinoma was made, the experimental mice were randomly divided into normal saline group, RCG (500, 250, and 125 mg/kg) groups, and CTX (60 mg/kg) group. Tumor growth states of mice were observed, tumor growth curve was described, inhibitory rates of primary tumor and number of lung metastasis focus were measured; microvessel density (MVD) was quantitated by immunohistochemistry using monoclonal antibodies of CD31; the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA was determined with RT-PCR. Results Using HPLC, a single glycosaminoglycans with molecular mass 9.7?104 was collected and its purity exceeded ninty-nine percent. Tumor growth curves in RCG groups were smooth compared with saline group. There were significant differences of inhibitory rates of primary tumor, number of lung metastasis focus and MVD between RCG groups and saline group. VEGF mRNA expression levels in RCG groups were reduced significantly compared with saline group. Conclusion RCG could effectively inhibit the growth and metastasis of primary Lewis lung carcinoma in C57BL/6 mouse and angiogenesis.
