Objective To observe the effect of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) with different concentrations on the growth and survival of rats' retinal ganglion cells (RGC) in vitro. Methods The retinae of 15 Wistar rats which were 2 or 3 days after birth were dissociated into cell suspension with 0 05% trypsin digestion. After 3 days, cultured RGC were identified with immunohistochemistry method using anti-rat Thy-1.1 monoclonal antibody. Cultured RGC were divided into the 10, 20, 40 ng/ml CNTF group (Ⅰ,Ⅱ, and Ⅲgroup) and the control group respectively. The duration of living RGC was recorded. After 3, 5 and 7 days, the A value of living cells was tested by methylthio-tetrazole colorimetric microassay. Results The result of immunohistochemical examination showed that 90% of living cells cultured for 3 days were RGC. No protuberance or volume increase of RGC were observed in CNTF groups and the control group. The duration of the living RGC was prolonged 3 to 4 days in CNTF groups compared with the control group. The A values of living RGC at the 5th and 7th days in the CNTF groups and the control group were: 0.075 8?0.013 9 and 0.069 3?0.011 3 in I group, 0.0902?0.011 4 and 0.082 5?0.0125 in Ⅱ group, 0.079 2?0.013 3 and 0.065 3?0.008 6 in Ⅲ group, and 0.062 0?0.007 1 and 0.051 3?0.006 8 in the control group, respectively. The differences between the simultaneous CNTF and control group were significant (between Ⅱ group and the control group: P

Lysins are efficient bacteria cell wall digesting enzymes encoded by DNA bacteriophage. Gram-positive bacteriophage lysins feature similar domain structure, high lytic efficiency, synergic antibacterial effect with antibiotics, rare neutralization by antibodies, less chance of developing drug-resistant strains, et al. The past decade has seen a considerable amount of research worldwidely focused on lysin, and lysins have been used successfully in a variety of animal models to control pathogenic antibiotic resistant bacteria found on mucosal surfaces and infected tissues. The great potential of lysins as an anti-infective agent prompted this review.

Objective To compare the changes of retinal sensitivity of central 30? visual field after correction with spectacles with those before correction in juveniles and to provide data for the necessity of correction with spectacles in the measurement of juvenile central visual field. Methods The changes of the retinal sensitivity of central 30? visual field after correction with spectacles in 122 eyes of juveniles were measured using Humphrev 750 Ⅱ perimeter, and were compared with those before correction. Results All the myopic eyes of 122 juveniles passed the reliability of parameters. Among the detected eyes, 110 eyes showed degree dependent changes of the retinal sensitivity of central visual field. Conclusion Correction with spectacles should be used for the measurement of central visual field in juveniles. Otherwise, the results might be unreliable, especially in the cases with moderate and high myopia.

Objective To discuss the feasibility of biodegradable covered magnesium alloys stent for a rabbit model of lateral aneurysm in the common carotid artery (CCA). Methods The left CCA was ligated in 20 conventional New Zealand rabbits. MRA of the neck was performed 1 month after ligation. The rabbits with thickening of the right CCA and non-or slight thickening of the bilateral vertebral arteries were selected for lateral aneurysm model making. The venous pouch and the right CCA wall by discontinuous extroversion sutures, to form a lateral aneurysm model. The biodegradable covered magnesium alloys stents or Willis covered stents were inserted two weeks after model making. Angiography was performed prior to the procedure, 3, 6 and 12 months after stent implantation to evaluate the disappearance of the aneurysms and patency of the right CCA. The degradation behaviour is invastagated with molybdenum target 2 weeks, 1, 2, 4, 6,9 and 12 months after stent placement. Results The left CCAs were successful ligated in all rabbits. MRA 1 month after ligation showed thickening of the right CCA and non-thickening of the bilateral vertebral arteries in 17 of 20 rabbits. In these animals, the CCA lateral aneurysm model was deemed successful, and biodegradable covered magnesium alloys stents and Willis covered stents were implanted in 9 and 8 aneurysms, respectively. DSA after biodegradable covered magnesium alloys stent placement displayed disappearance of the aneurysms and patency of the CCA in all 9 rabbits during follow-ups. DSA 3 months after Willis stent placement displayed patency of the CCA in 7 rabbits and occlusion of the artery in one. No occlusion of the right CCA was observed on angiography at 6 and 12 months. The degradation of the biodegradable covered magnesium alloys stent was investigated with molybdenum target during follow-ups, and no changes was observed in Willis covered stent. Conclusion Biodegradable covered magnesium alloys stent is a feasible approach for the treatment of a lateral aneurysm in the right CCA.
