OBJECTIVE:To prepare Dibing gel and establish its quality control method.METHODS:The0.5%Carbopol940was taken as the base of gel.The content of dexamethasone acetate was determined by HPLC.The stability and the skin irritation test were studied,too.RESULTS:The calibration curve of dexamethasone acetate was linear in the range of20～120?g/ml.The average recovery of dexamethasone acetate was101.1%,RSD=0.92%.The preparation was stable and had no irritation to skin.CONCLUSION:The gel was resonable in formulation,convenient in preparation technique,and simple and accurate in method of quality control.

· AIM: To investigate whether heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) is induced in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in experimental rat glaucoma and whether the induction of HSP27 by intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation can increase serum autoantibody to HSP27 in the model.IOP elevation、Sham and normal groups by SPSS12.0. IOP was raised by electrocoagulating at least 3 episcleral veins and limbal veins on the right eye of each rat in IOP elevation group and its contralateral eye was used as controls. Immunohistochemical staining for HSP27 was performed in RGCs and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and serum immunoreactivity against HSP27 was detected by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in three groups.RNFL of the eyes with IOP elevation, while it was expressed weakly in untreated control eyes. Compared with sham and normal groups, serum autoantibody to HSP27 was slightly high at 1wk (P ＞0.05) and significantly increased at 2, 3, 4 and 8wk (P＜0.05) in IOP elevation group.enhanced expression of the endogenous HSP27 might play an important role in glaucomatous optic neuropathy.

AIM: To study the experimental method of inducing the chronic intraocular hypertension in rat eyes.METHODS: Twenty Wistar rats were randomly divided into ocular hypertension and Sham control groups. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was raised by electrocoagulating at least 3 episcleral and limbal veins on the right eye of each rat in ocular hypertension group and its contralateral eye was used as control. At 1, 2, 3, 4 and 8wk after the electrocoagulation of the veins, IOP were measured. RESULTS: The treatment of electrocoagulation caused a significant IOP increase of the right eyes over the baseline, over the contralateral eyes, and over the sham control eyes (repeated measures ANOVA, P＜0.001). At 1wk,IOP was (30.12± 5.L8 ) mmHg (1kPa=7.5mmHg), and maintained the high IOP up to 8wk.CONCLUSION: The chronic intraocular hypertension model could be successfully created by electrocoagulating three or more episcleral and limbal veins.

Objective To observe the effect of Ti-6AL-4V particles on morphological and func- tional changes of osteoclast in vitro.Methods Mature osteoclasts separated from New Zealand Rabbits were cultured on glass slices and cortical bone slices.The experimental group was stimulated by Ti-6AL- 4V particles at concentration of 0.1 mg/ml.The cells were stained with TRAP at different culture time to observe the morphological variety.The bone resorption pits on bone slices were stained by toluidine blue and the resorption areas analyzed by computer image analysis software.Results Osteoclasts phagocy- tosed the particles,with irregular shapes,deeper TRAP stain and earlier apoptosis.Stimulation by Ti- 6AL-4V particles brought about larger area of bone absorption lacuna.Conclusion Osteoclasts have the ability to phagocytose Ti-6AL-4V particles,which leads to morphological and functional changes and enhances bone resorption.

Objective To analyzed the expression and clinical characteristics of CD 20 marker in children with B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia ( B-ALL) and evaluated its medical significance in assessing the prognosis of disease.Methods From November 2008 to July 2012,125 cases of children with B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia were collected from Shanghai Children ′s Hospital,including 79 males and 46 females, aged between 2 months to 14 years old.Flow cytometry based immunophenotyping and Minimal Residual Disease ( MRD) screening were applied to these children when newly diagnosed ,and MRD monitoring was again carried out after 35 days of induction remission therapy to those bears the MRD markers.These 125 patients were divided into CD20-positive group and CD20-negative group, and the corresponding clinical characteristics ,stage of immunophenotype ,MRD,risk stratification,and overall survival rates were recorded and compared.Data were statistically analyzed by using SPSS 16.0 software including χ2 test,t-test,standard deviation test and survival test.Results A total of 125 children with ALL-B,the group of CD20-positive were 48 while CD20-negative groups were 77,with a median age of 6 years old,and the median follow-up time of 30 months.Multivariate Cox regression Analysis showed that there was no clear correlation between CD20 expression level with age ,sex,white blood cell count at diagnosis ,fusion-gene,the stage of immunophenotype as well as risk stratification.The MRD-positive incidence at 35 days in the CD20 positive group was 35.4%,much higher than that of the CD20-negative group (16.9%),which is statistical significance (χ2 =5.236,P<0.05),while the overall survival rate (OS) for the CD20 positive group is 75.0%,much lower than that of the CD20 negative group (84.4%,χ2 =4.160,P<0.05).Conclusions CD20 positive expression level in children with B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia at diagnosis demonstrates negative correlation with the overall survival rate of the patient ,indicating its usefulness as an additional joint marker for the current regimens to incorporate CD 20-targeted monoclonal therapy.
