1.Application of antibody drugs in the field of anti-infection.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2015;50(12):1527-33
In recent years, with the rapid development of antibody drugs, the antibody-based therapies have gradually expanded from the cancer and autoimmune diseases to metabolic and infectious diseases and so on. However, the development of antibody-based anti-infective drugs is much slower as there are only two kinds of drugs in the market. This is due to the complex infective mechanism of viruses, bacteria and other pathogens, and the monovalent character of monoclonal antibodies that greatly limit the anti-infection effect of antibody drugs. The development and application of novel technologies, such as recombinant polyclonal antibody technology, will greatly accelerate the development of antibody-based anti-infection drugs. This article will introduce the application and trends in the development of antibody-based drugs in the field of anti-infection therapy.
3.Prevalence and risk factors of pterygium
International Eye Science 2008;8(5):871-874
Pterygium is a common disorder of ocular surface with unknown etiology and pathogenesis. The epidemiological studies around the world have shown that the prevalence rates range from 0.3% to 37.46%. Pterygium is related to geographic setting, sunlight and ultraviolet exposure,age, gender, economic situation, dry eye syndrome and others. The purpose of this review is to present a summary of the more recent literature about the epidemiological study, paying particular attention to prevalence and risk factors of pterygium.

AIM:To analyse the risk factors of age, sex, course, best corrected visual acuity(BCVA),diopter and fundus features of high myopes with progressive high myopia. METHODS: A total of 167 patients with high myopes were categorized into four groups: group 1,age of 29 years or younger; group 2,between the age of 30 to 49 years; group 3,between the age of 50 to 69 years and group 4,age of 70 years or older. The refractive errors of all patients were measured without cycloplegia with an autorefractometer. Data of the spherical equivalent(SE) of the refractive errors in diopters (D)and fundus examed by direct ophthalmoscope were used in statistical analyses.RESULTS: The number of female was statistically larger than that of male(P<0.01),also the disease course was correlated to the age. The visual acuity of high myopes significantly decreased as they grew older including the higher incidence of lacquer cracker, submacular hemorrhage, Fuchs spots, chorioretinal atrophy . CONCLUSION: Female maybe a risk factor of high myopia, advanced age is an important factor of visual acuity decrease. High myopes ought to be treated early to delay the progress of myopia and development of macular degeneration.
6.Retrospective study on the changes of refractive state and stability after cataract surgery
International Eye Science 2016;16(10):1865-1868
AIM: To compare and contrast different operation after cataract patients with refractive change rules. To analyze the patients with refractive stability after cataract surgery, and to provide a reference for cataract patients with clinical surgery after visual quality.
●METHODS: Retrospective study. A total of 126 cases (150 eyes) were selected from Jan. 2014 to Dec. 2015 in Changzhou First People′s Hospital of cataract extraction combined with foldable intraocular lens implantation for cataract patients as the research samples. According to the different operation for three groups, the first group of 42 patients ( 50 eyes ) underwent above 3 mm clear corneal incision;52 cases in group 2 (60 eyes) underwent temporal side 3 mm clear corneal incision. The third group, 32 cases (40 eyes) underwent 3 corner above the scleral tunnel incision. All the cases were measured at different time point in patients with naked eyes far visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity, spherical degree, the degree of astigmatism and astigmatic axial, comparative analysis of after cataract surgery in patients with refractive change regularity and stability of refraction.
●RESULTS: The uncorrected distance visual comparison within the group, and each time point after preoperative differences were significant ( P< 0. 01 ), and the early postoperative period after 1, 3mo significantly different (P<0. 05). Three groups of patients after surgery compared with preoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity improved significantly, and were stable after 1mo. Compare the best corrected distance vision within the group, and each time point after preoperative differences were significant (P<0. 01), postoperative 1wk and after 1, 3d significantly different (P<0. 05), after 1wk and after 1, 3mo was not significantly different ( P > 0. 05 ), three groups of patients were compared with the preoperative best corrected distance visual acuity were increased significantly, and were in stable after 1wk; relatively spherical degree within the array, after 1d and 3d was not significantly different (P>0. 05), hyperopia drift, after 1wk and 1, 3d was significantly different (P<0. 05), after 1wk and 1, 3mo was not significantly different ( P>0. 05 ). Three groups of patients′spherical degrees after 1wk were stabilized. Comparative degree of astigmatism within the array, postoperative compared with preoperative corneal astigmatism were increased 1d after surgery. Corneal astigmatism in each group reached the maximum, and then decreases 1wk and 1d after surgery, compared with postoperative 3d was significantly different ( P<0. 05 ). After 1wk and 1, 3mo was not significantly different ( P>0. 05 ) . Three groups of patients were compared with preoperative astigmatism were significantly increased, and in operation after 1wk were stabilized;astigmatic axis were three groups in the preoperative astigmatism against the rule, the first and third group after 1d, three Tianshun rule astigmatism proportional were increased, and then decreased. Group 2 the- rule astigmatism proportion, after 1wk, 1 and 3mo, the first and third group gradually reduced the proportion of cis regulatory astigmatism, and compared with preoperative increased, increasing the-rule astigmatism group 2 ratio, and increased compared with preoperative.
●CONCLUSION: Above 3 mm the transparent corneal incision, temporal clear corneal incision and above the scleral tunnel incision different surgical postoperative visual acuity are good. lt can be used as a routine surgical procedure in treatment of cataract;phacoemulsification in cataract patients with former majority against the rule astigmatism. After cataract surgery, early refractive state is a state of mild hyperopia and stabilized about 1wk, combined with clinical guide glasses.

Objective To assess the impact of pigment epithelium-derived factor(PEDF)on the proliferation and apoptosis of the glioma cells by detecting expression of apoptosis related proteins.Methods U87 cells were treated with PEDF(1000μg/ml,U87PEDF),or without PEDF(U87com0),cell proliferation assays were performed by MTT assay to test the effect of PEDF on proliferation of glioma cells;Apoptosis assays were performed by flow-cytometric analysis;Western-blot Was used for evaluating the expression of p16 protein.Results The induced inhibitony rates of glioma cells by PEDF were(54.29±0.62)% Compaxed with the control(t=2.63,P<0.05).The apoptosis assay showed that(21.84±0.36)% of PI- negative/annexin V-positive Was present in the U87 PEDF cells.The appoptosis was associated with the incteases of p16 protein(0.82±0.09)compared with tlle control(0.43±0.03,P<0.05).Conciusion PEDF may play a significant role in apoptosis regulation and proliferation of glioma cell accompanied with the increase of the p16 protein.

Objective To assess the impact of pigment epithelium-derived factor(PEDF) on the migration of the glioma cells.Methods PEDF(100 ng/ml)was added to U87 cells(U87PFDF),and VEGF of 0.25μg/ml was added to U87PEDF+VEGF while U87 cells as control(U87con).The cell migratory assav was used tbr evaluating its inhibitory migration rate of PEDF.Real time RT-PCR was used for evaluating the expression of Laminin-8 gene.Results The number of migratory cells was higher than those with added PEDF,and the inhibitory rate of migratory was 38% even in the presence of VEGF.Real time RT-PCR revealed that the mRNA expression levels of α4,β1,γl were(1.043±0.090),(0.823±0.012).(0.762±0.05) copy/μl,which were higher than those treated by PEDF(0.633±0.004),(0.442±0.005).(0.424±0.002)copy/μl,respectively (P<0.05).Conclusion PEDF could decrease the migmtory capacity of the glioma cells even in the presence of VEGF because of the regulation of Laminin-8 in part.
