AlM:To discuss the clinical effect and safety of the combined surgeries of phacoemulsification and goniosynechialysis for patients with primary angle -closure glaucoma ( PACG) .METHODS:Eighty-three eyes of 83 patients with PACG and cataract were ranomized into two groups. Group A:39 patients with 39 eyes of angle-closure <180.;Group B:44 patients with 44 eyes angle - closure ≥180.. The changes of visual acuity, anterior chamber depth ( ACD) , anterior chamber angle and lOP after operation were measured. The follow-up period was for 1a.RESULTS: The visual acuity was improved significantly in both group after operation. No significantly difference in ACD, anterior chamber angle after operation in two groups (P>0. 05). The lOP in group A was lower than that in group B 3mo after operation, there was statistical significance (P<0. 05).CONCLUSlON:Phacoemulsification and goniosynechialysis can deepen ACD significantly. This method make the anterior chamber angle open, can reduce lOP and improve the patients’ visual acuity, especially in patients with PACG. lt is a safe and effective approach to patients with PACG and cataract.

AIM: To investigate the levels of IL-18, IL-16, IL-8, eotaxin and the chymase activity in the sputum of asthmatics. METHODS: IL-18, IL-16, IL-8 and eotaxin levels were detected with sandwich ELISA procedures and chymase activity was determined spectrophotometrically (410 nm) by the rate of hydrolysis of N-succinyl-L-Ala-L-Ala-L-Pro-L-Phe-p-nitroanilide (SAAPP). RESULTS: The specific chymase activities in the severe and moderate asthmatics were higher than that in controls. Native protease inhibitors ?_1-antitrypsin (?_1-AT) and soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI) inhibited 71.9% and 72.1% enzymatic chymase activity, respectively. The levels of IL-18, IL-16, IL-8 and eotaxin were significantly elevated in the sputum of patients with acute asthma. There were correlations between the levels of IL-8 and IL-16 (r=0.55, P

Objective: To observe blood levels of cystetine C (Cys C) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndromes (OSAS) related hypertension (HP). Methods: A total of 102 HP patients received polysomgography (PSG) in our hospital from 2013-01 to 2013-12 were studied. According to apnea hypopnea index (AHI), the patients were divided into 2 groups: OSAS with HP (OH) group, n=55 patients with AHI≥5 and HP group,n=47 patients with AHI<5; in addition, there was a Control group,n=45 normal subjects with PSG examination at the same period. The general conditions, biochemical and sleep parameters were studied, the differences among 3 groups were analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software. Results: In OH group, HP group and Control group, blood levels of Cys C were (1.06 ± 0.27) mg/L, (0.91 ± 0.19) mg/L and (0.79 ± 0.32) mg/L respectively; SOD were (127.63 ± 63.19) U/mL, (149.14 ± 60.12) U/mL and (181.54 ± 59.37) U/mL respectively, allP<0.05. Based on clinical conditions, OH group was further divided into Mild, Moderate and Severe sub-groups, blood levels of Cys C and SOD were similar among different sub-groups,P>0.05. Conclusion: Blood levels of Cys C in OH and HP groups were higher than Control group, Cys C in OH group was higher than HP group; SOD levels in OH and HP groups were lower than Control group, SOD in OH group was lower than HP group. The relationships between Cys C, SOD and OH severity were unclear.

Objective To establish a tandem affinity purification(TAP) system of innate immune-regulatory protein PKR and analyze PKR function, for the future screen and identification of novel PKR-interaction proteins. Methods PKR gene was amplified by PCR, and then cloned into a mammalian expression vector pcTAP-A. Recombinant pcTAP-PKR was transfected into PKR knock-down(PKRkd) HeLa cells by LipofectAMINE 2000,and the PKR overexpressed HeLa cells were harvested for mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPK) activation analysis. Cell extracts of PKR overexpressed cells were purified using TAP kit and examined by Western blot. Results Cal modulin resin(CBP) and streptavidin resin(SBP) tagged PKR was detected in PKRkd HeLa cells as early as 24 h upon transfection with pcTAP-PKR, and its expression decreased at later time points. The overexpression of PKR was autophosphorylated, and thus involved in the regulation of MAPK actviation. After small-scale TAP kit purification, PKR protein was detectable by Western blot. Conclusion We have successfully established a TAP system that over-expresses functional PKR, providing a useful tool for the future study on the identification of PKR interacting proteins.
