Objective To observe the change of Wnt-β-catenin signaling's location and expression in kidney repair after acute kidney injury induced by ischemla reperfusion (I/R).Methods Ischemia reperfusion injury in BAT-gal reportor mice was made and blood sample was taken from tails on the 1th day after injury. Mice were sacrified on the 2th or 7th day and kidneys and blood were collected. Renal pathological change was observed by PAS stain. The changes of location and expression of Wnt-β-catenin signaling were detected by immunofluorescence costainning X-gal-LTL, X-gal-NKCC2, X-gal-DBA respectively. The protein expressions of the Wnt4 and co-receptor Lrp6 were assessed by Western blotting. Results PAS-stained kidney sections showed desquamative or flattened epithelia, necrotic debris on day 2 and regenerating tubules on day 7. An injury-induced enhancement of the Wnt pathway response (X-gal staining) in kidney cortex and out-medulla. Immunolabelling of kidney sections from injured BAT-gal mice revealed that X-gal staining was detected in kidney epithelial cells (double-labelled with LTL or NKCC2). Western blotting showed the Wnt4 protein was up-regulated and phospho-Lrp6, indicative of active canonical Wnt signaling, was noted in kidney cortex from day 2 after I/R, but in control kidney cortex pLrp6 was not detected. Conclusion Wnt-β-catenin signaling is activited after acute kidney I/R injury and is required for tubular epithelial repair and regeneration following kidney I/R injury.

AIM: Currently available anti-scarring regimens for glaucoma filtration surgery have potentially blinding complications and safer alternatives would be beneficial. This experiment is to investigate the effect of TGF-β2 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide on differentiation, proliferation of subconjunctival fibroblast following glaucoma filtration surgery.METHODS: Glaucoma filtration surgery were performed on both eyes of 28 rabbits. TGF-β2 antisense oligodeoxynudeotide was subconjunctivally injected in the right eyes (A group), and TGF-β2 missense oligodeoxynucleotide (B group)or PBS(C group) was used at the same method in the left eyes as controls. Rabbits were killed at 4,7,14 and 28 days after surgery. Intraocular pressure (IOP), bleb characteristics were recorded at different time point. Subconjunctival fibroblasts were examined by immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy.RESULTS: The IOP of rabbits in group A was significantly lower at 14 days (6.74± 1.18 mmHg) and 21 days (8.15± 1.97mmHg) after operation than the IOP in group B (8.53± 1.04,9.72± 1.09 mmHg)(P ＜0.01) and group C(8.79± 1.21, 9.43±1.27 mmHg) (P ＜0.05). The mean bleb survival time was longer (17.2 days) in group A than that of group B (14.5 days) and group C (13.5 days)(P＜0.05). The population of the cells expressing α -smooth muscle actin(α -SMA) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was significantly reduced in group A compared with the group B and C. The ultrastructure of fibroblast was not altered by TGF-β2 anti-sense oligodeoxynucleotide.CONCLUSION:TGF-β2 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide can prevent the scar formation after glaucoma surgery by inhibit the differentiation and proliferation of subconjunctival fibroblast. It could be a potentially useful anti-scarring alternative for the prevention of late surgical failure.

The macroporous resin separation technology has been mainly applied in the enrichment of saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids and other ingredients, and used in the removal of heavy metal impurities and pesticide residues in recent years. This paper focuses on the synthesis of the new-type macroporous adsorption resin LKS-11 according to the molecular structure characteristics of procymidone. Specifically, the selective absorptive property and other advantages of macroporous resin were utilized to analyze the procymidone removal efficiency in ginseng extracts from different sources. The type of macroporous resins, absorptive property and desorption conditions were observed respectively by static and dynamic adsorption methods to determined the optimum process conditions. According to the results, LKS-11 showed a good absorptive property to procymidone in ginseng extracts and provided a theoretical basis for studies on the removal of procymidone residues from ginseng extracts by using macroporous adsorption resin. Because of no secondary pollution on samples, low production and operation costs, high procymidone removal efficiency and high product recovery rate, this method is suitable to be applied in production.
