Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2017;30(7):775-779
After the research of PLA2R1 and its antibodies, Thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A and its antibodies to membranous nephropathy (MN) has made a new understanding.Some researches have reported that the antibodies of PLA2R1 and THSD7A were mutually exclusive in MN, because THSD7A was found in PLA2R1-negative MN patients.But the latest researcher showed that these antibodies can be both positive in MN patients.Similar to the function of PLA2R1, THSD7A can assist clinical diagnosis, treatment, and monitor of MN.In contrast to PLA2R1, THSD7A was also highly expressed on both human and murine podocytes.We can use the mice model to study the pathogenesis of THSD7A-associated MN in the future.In this review, we describe the structure and function of Thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A and its autoantibodies, highlight its role in MN and suggest possible aspects of its future clinical application.
3.The research progress for the role of reactive oxygen species in the occurrence of noise-induced hearing loss
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2017;30(7):770-774
Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is defined by a strong noise exposure led up the hair cells to damage which caused sensorineural hearing loss.The occurrence of NIHL is mainly related to oxidative damage, such as reactive oxygen species.Oxidative damage is mainly related to the ROS produced by noise exposure which can cause cochlear ischemia, hypoxia, and mitochondrial damage, resulting in hair cell death, further led to hearing loss.Prevention or treatment measures of NIHL is to reduce the formation of ROS and the removal of ROS.Antioxidants have been used in clinical treatment.This article reviews the effects of reactive oxygen species in NIHL to further explore the pathogenesis and prevention or treatment measures of NIHL.
