Objective To investigate the effect of platelet-derived growth factor-D (PDGF-D) on the prostate cancer cells migration and its possible mechanism. Methods The expressions of PDGF-D in LNCaP and PC-3 cells were detected with western blot.PDGF-D siRNA was synthesized according to mRNA sequence of PDGF-D gene and was transfected into PC-3 cell.The cells were treated with PDGF-D and PDGF-D siRNA,the cell migration was examined by Boyden chamber migration assay.The expression changes of VEGF and MMP-9 mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results The results of western blot indicated that the PDGF-D protein expression level was lower in LNCaP cells (29.47 ± 1.68) than that in PC-3 cells (63.43 ±2.10),(P < 0.05).PDGF-D siRNA could down-regulate the PDGF-D protein expression in the transfected group (35.19 ± 1.51).The exogenous PDGF-D could promote migration of LNCaP and PC-3cells,and up-regulate the expression of VEGF,MMP-9 mRNA in PC-3 cells (P < 0.05,compared with control group).PDGF-D siRNA inhibited PC-3 cells' migration and decreased the level of VEGF,MMP-9mRNA expression (0.72 ± 0.09 vs 0.43 ± 0.18,0.65 ±0.07 vs 0.22 ± 0.08) (P < 0.05). Conclusion PDGF-D is involved in the promotion of prostate cancer invasion and angiogenesis.

Objective:To establish an experimental phalloplasty model with sensory restoration in rabbits and to explore a new surgical technique to improve the postoperative sensory function in phallic reconstruction. Methods: Adult male New Zealand white rabbit was used. Penile reconstruction was performed with superficial epigastric faciovascular pedicle flap. Free saphenous nerve graft was dissected, embedded in the flap, and end-to-end anastomosed to dorsal nerve of penis. Postoperatively, H-E staining and CGRP immunohistochemical staining were applied to observe the morphology of the regenerated nerves in the reconstructed penis at different stages. Results:Only a few CGRP-positive fibers scattered in deep corium in the reconstructed penis 1 month after surgery, while the quantity of CGRP nerve fibers increased markedly and the CGRP-positive fibers appeared in both superficial corium and papillae corii after 3 months. Six months postoperatively, the positive nerve fibers were also observed around the cutaneous accessories and in the epidermis-corium boundary layer. Conclusion: This rabbit model demonstrates the possibility of a new method for phalloplasty with sensory recovery, which may redound to clinical application.

Aim To investigate the effects of indole-selenium on mice's immunological liver injury.Methods The model of immunological liver injury in mice was prepared. The activities of alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) were assayed by spectrophotometry; the levels of nitric oxide(NO) in serum were assayed by Griess method; tumour necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) activity was determined by ridio immunoassay method and the level of interleukin-1(IL-1) was assayed by MTT dye reduction. Results Indole-selenium (5, 10, 20 mg?kg~(-1)) significantly decreased serum transaminase (ALT, AST) levels,attenuated the area and extent of necrosis and reduced the infiltration of inflammatory cells. Furthermore, indole-selenium significantly lowered the increased TNF-? and NO levels in serum and inhibited the production of TNF-? and IL-1 by peritoneal macrophages. Conclusion Indole-selenium possesses amelioration effect on pathology of immunological liver injury in mice,which was related directly with inhibiting the production of TNF-? and NO levels in serum, decreasing the production of TNF-? and IL-1 by peritoneal macrophages.

AIM: To observe the effect and safety of applying mitomycin C ( MMC ) in laser - assisted subepithelial keratomileusis ( LASEK) for extreme high myopia.
●METHODS:LASEK with 0. 02% MMC was performed in 364 eyes of 182 patients with extreme high myopia and spherical equivalent was-9. 0 to-10. 25 D. All the patients were divided into four groups according to the applying time of MMC. The time in Group l was 10s, in GroupⅡwas 25s, in Group Ⅲ was 40s and 55s in Group lV. Uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA ) , residual refraction, Haze, healing time of corneal epithelium, density and variant index of corneal endothelium was examined in these patients and follow-up 6mo.
●RESULTS:At 6mo after surgery, 76. 3%, 94. 0%, 92. 3%and 93. 8% of the patients in Group l, GroupⅡ, GroupⅢ and Group lV respectively achieved the UCVA better than 15/20. There was significant difference of UCVA between Group l and the other three groups (χ2=19. 610, P=0. 000). Proportion of the residual refraction between ± 0. 5D in Group l (78. 8%) was lower than other groups (95. 2% in Group Ⅱ, 93. 3% in Group Ⅲ, and 92. 7% in GroupⅣ) at 6mo and there was significant difference (χ2=16. 329, P=0. 001). Group l had more Haze statistically than the other three groups at 6mo postoperatively ( Hc=50. 110, P=0. 000). The healing time of cornea epithelium seem to be no statistically difference between each group at 6mo (χ2=11. 611, P>0. 05). MMC had no influence on the density of corneal endothelium in each group postoperatively (P>0. 05), there were 3071. 3±284. 4 cells/mm2 in Group l, 3 105. 6 ± 337. 8 cells/mm2 in Group Ⅱ, 2 986. 3 ± 304. 1cells/mm2 in Group Ⅲ and 3 088. 7 ± 372. 5 cells/mm2 in Group lV respectively. The variant index of corneal endothelium calculated in each group at 6mo after surgery was 24. 72 ± 6. 52, 22. 93 ± 6. 74, 24. 38 ± 6. 63 and 23. 14±7. 22 repectively, compare with that preoperatively there were no statistically differences (P>0. 05).
●CONCLUSION: For extreme high myopia LASEK with 0. 02% MMC is effective and safe. The MMC applying time of 25s in LASEK can effectively reduce Haze after surgery and decrease potential complications.
