BackgroundLaser peripheral iridotomy(LPI) can break the pupillary block,and is an effective method of treating acute primary angle closure (APAC).However,a part of APAC eyes may gradually develop a formation and extension of peripheral anterior synechia(PAS) and increased intraocular pressure(IOP) after LPI.ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between appositional angle closure and darkroom provocative test(DRPT) in the fellow eyes with APAC after LPI.Methods Fellow eyes of APAC without PAS after LPI were studied.Ultrasounic biomicroscopy(UBM) were performed in darkness to observe whether appositional angle closure occurred and compare the relationship between the quadrants with appositional angle closure and the results of DRPT.Results Fifty-four patients were included in the study.Appositional angle closure was observed in at least one quadrant in 20(37.0％ ) of the 54 fellow eyes with APAC after LPI.Fifty-one patients were given DRPT and positive result in 9 patients( 17.6％ ).According to the quadrants with appositional angle closure,there were 5 patients with DRPT positive results in 46 patients with appositional angle closure 0 to 2 quadrants,and 4 patients with DRPT positive results in 5 patients with appositional angle closure 3 to 4 quadrants ( P =0.003 ).Bivariate correlation analysis indicated a positive correlation between the value of the increased IOP in DRPT and the number of quadrants with appositional angle closure in darkness( r =0.397,P =0.004).ConclusionsA certain proportional fellow eyes of APAC appeared appositional angle closure in darkness and DRPT positive result after LPI.The more the quadrants of appositional angle closure after LPI,the greater the likelihood of a positive DRPT.It suggests that the APAC fellow eyes and attack eyes with the same anatomical configuration still have the possibility of angle closure after LPI,and need follow-up and treatment for a long time.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of montelukast on the secretion of mucus protein in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced human bronchial epithelial cells.MethodsPrimary human bronchial epithelial cells were isolated and identiifed in vitro. LPS (1μg/mL) was used to induce cell inlfammatory response. Montelukast (50 μmol/L, 20μmol/L, 10μmol/L) was used as intervention. The concertration of mucin-5 subtype AC (MUC5AC) in cell supernatants was measured by ELISA. The expression levels of MUC5AC mRNA and protein were determined by RT-PCR and Western-blot. DCFH-DA lfuorescent probe was used to detect reactive oxygen species (ROS). To further elucidate the mechanism, NF-κB (p65)、IκBα、ERK1/2 phosphorylation be-fore and after montelukast intervention were determined by Western-blot.ResultsMontelukast decreases the expression levels of MUC5AC mRNA and protein in a dose-dependent manner in LPS induced human bronchial epithelial cells. Meanwhile, mon-teluskast suppresses ROS generation and NF-κB (p65)、IκBα、ERK1/2 phosphorylation.Conclusions In response to LPS in-duced inlfammation, montelukast decreases the expression level of MUC5AC in vitro, which may be related to NF-κB and ERK activation.

The volatile oil is the main component in the leaves of Perilla frutescens. According to the main types of monoterpenoids or aromatic compounds, it can be divided into different chemotypes and the main chemotypes of Chinese producing Perilla are PA type (mainly containing Perilla aldehyde and limonene), PK type (mainly containing perillaketone) and PP type (subdivided as PP-a type, with apiole as its main component; PP-m type, with myristicin as its main component; PP-e type, with elemicin as main component; PP-as type, with asarone as main component). Based on the biosynthetic pathways analysis, we also found that the formation of the particular chemotype is usually controlled by a single gene or a few genes, and different types have different pharmacological effects. In this paper, the classification under the species P. frutescens, main chemotypes of the volatile oil, and their biogenesis and regulation, pharmacological effect and influence factors are summarized and reviewed.
