Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;30(2):101-105
BackgroundWith the number of diabetics increases,people pay more attention to the diabetic keratopathy.The major mechanism leading to diabetic keratopathy is diabetic corneal neuropathy.So it is significant to observe pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy. Objective To investigate the protective effects of edaravone( a free radical scavenger) on corneal nerve of rats with experimental diabetic corneal neuropathy,then explain the effects of oxidative stress in the pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy. Methods Seventy Sprague-Daxley male rats were taken as experimental subjects and 20 of them were used as normal control group.The remaining 50 were induced to be diabetic mellitus by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin and divided into 2 groups randomly:edaravone treated group and diabetic control group.In the edaravone treated group,edaravone(0.2 g/L) eye drops were used 3 times a day until the animal was killed.Five rats in each group were sacrificed at 6,8,10 and 12 weeks respectively.Then the corneal sensation,number of corneal nerve fibers,morphology,content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) in the corneal tissue were detected.ResultsIn the diabetic control group,the corneal sensation and the number of corneal nerve fibers were decreased,the density of neural network for cluster was sparse,the nerve activity was decreased,the content of MDA in the corneal tissue was significantly increased,the activity of SOD in the corneal tissue was significantly decreased (P<0.01 ).Accompany with the course of disease,the above change was obvious day after day.Compared with the diabetic control group,the corneal sensation and the morphological abnormalities in corneal nerve of edaravone group were improved significantly which had the partial branches to the 12th week,the content of MDA in the corneal tissue was significantly decreased,the activity of SOD in the corneal tissue was significantly increased (P<0.01).Conclusions Edaravone can lower diabetic corneal nerve of rats with experimental diabetic corneal neuropathyinjury,Oxidative stress may be a critical pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy.

OBJECTIVE:To screen the optimal technology of dog testes and penis processed with talcum powder,and to pro-vide reference for the formulation of quality control standard. METHODS:Taking the comprehensive score of crushing rate and the content of alcohol soluble extract as evaluation indexes,L9(34) orthogonal test was used to optimize processing temperature,pro-cessing time and the amount of talcum powder;validation test was conducted. According to related method in Chinese Pharmaco-poeia(2015 edition),the contents of moisture,ash,nitrogen and alcohol soluble extract were determined,and automatic amino ac-id analyzer was used to determine the content of amino acids in samples. RESULTS:The optimal processing technology were that 100 kg dog testes and penis should add into 40 kg talcum powder;the processing temperature was 350-380 ℃;processing lasted for 4 min. Results of verification test showed that the average crushing rate and the content of alcohol soluble extract were 80.2%(RSD=0.95%,n=3)and 15.7%(RSD=2.30%,n=3). In processed dog testes and penis,the contents of moisture,ash,nitro-gen and alcohol soluble extract were 5.7%,18.7%,8.3%,15.7%,respectively. Besides,there still were 16 kinds of amino ac-ids,and their total content was 42.44%. CONCLUSIONS:The optimized talcum powder processing technology of dog testes and penis is stable and practical. The content of moisture,ash,nitrogen,alcohol soluble extract and amino acid can be used as impor-tant quality standard control indexes for processed dog testes and penis.

[Objective] To investigate the effects of mitochondrial unfolded-protein response (UPRmt) on the aggregation toxicity of Aβ protein in Alzheimer's disease (AD).[Methods] By cloning the mitochondrial outer membrane tomm-22,inner membrane E04A4.5 and atfs-1 genes of Caenorhabditis elegans (C.elegans) and constructing the L4440 interference vectors,HT115 competent cells were transformed to prepare tomm-22,E04A4.5 and atfs-1 RNAi bacteria.The effects of tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi on the process of paralysis were investigated through transgenic AD disease models CL4176 and CL2006.The life span of wild type N2 C.elegans was observed after RNAi of tomm-22 and E04A4.5.The regulatory role of ATFS-1 signaling by atfs-1 RNAi in inhibition of Aβ protein aggregation was detected.The dynamic changes of UPRmt in transgenic SJ4100 nematode and the autophagy level in transgenic DA2123 nematodes were analyzed by tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi.[Results] We successfully established the UPRmt model by cloning mitochondrial tomm-22 and E04A4.5 of C.elegans and further constructing RNAi bacteria,and showed that they can suppress aggregation toxicity of Amyloid-β (Aβ) protein in AD model CL4176,and slow down paralysis process.The life span of wild type N2 was significantly shortened after feeding with the tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi bacteria.At the same time,the progressive paralysis AD model CL2006 shows a delayed paralysis in the early stage of life cycle but get acceleration in the late.These results illustrate that the UPRmt can alleviate the mitochondrial stress and improve the function of mitochondria at least in the short term.The atfs-1 RNAi confirmed that delayed paralysis process of AD model CL4176 is not directly related to the ATFS-1 signal.However,tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi can gradually increase the UPRmt response and induce the expression level of autophagy-related molecules LGG-1,suggesting that tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi may play a role in delaying the AD disease process by enhancing the activity of autophagy in C.elegans.[Conclusions] The study found that the UPRmt can inhibit the accumulation of A β protein by coordinating the signal transduction between mitochondria and nucleus,and can help to restore mitochondria and even intracellular protein homeostasis for protecting the normal physiological function of cells,and also provides new targets for prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as AD.

The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infected-cell protein 27 (ICP27) is an essential,highly conserved protein involved in various steps of HSV-1 gene regulation as well as in the shut-off of host gene expression during infection.It functions primarily at the post-transcriptional level in inhibiting precursor mRNA splicing and in promoting nuclear export of viral transcripts.Recently,many novel functions performed by the HSV-1 ICP27 protein were shown,including leptomycin B resistance,inhibition of the type I interferon signaling,regulation of the viral mRNA translation and determining the composition of HSV-1 virions.

Objective To investigate the tellurite resistance level,the presence of tellurite resistance (ter) gene cluster and their relationships in non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli(STEC) isolates.Methods Tellurite resistance level was evaluated by plate dilution method and the ter gene cluster was tested by PCR.Results Only 5 of 39 non-O157 STEC isolates tested in this study were identified to have ter gene cluster,which showed relatively high levels of tellurite resistance ranging from 128 μg/ml to 512 μg/ml.In contrast,the other 34 isolates without ter gene cluster were sensitive to potassium tellurite and showed very low levels of tellurite resistance,the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was <1 μg/ml for 29 isolates,8 μg/ml for 2 isolates and 2 μg/ml for 3 isolates.Conclusion Most non-O157 STEC isolates were sensitive to potassium tellurite.It could be concluded that much attention should be paid when screening the non-O157 STEC isolates using the selective medium supplemented with potassium tellurite.
