Objective To dynamically observe the expressions of Toll like-receptor 2 (TLR-2),TLR-4 and inflammatory cytokine IL-1 beta and TNF alpha,and analyze the correlation between TLR-2,TLR-4 and inflammatory response on rat cornea alkali burn.Methods Forty SPF healthy SD rats were excluded the anterior segment disease,the right eye was set as burn experiment and the left eye as normal control,Ⅲ level corneal alkali burn model was established with concentration of 1 mol · L-1 NaOH(At the establishment and after the establishment of the model,the inconsistent degree of corneal bums,the corneal perforation and hyphema in rats,etc.,were removed,and finally randomly selected 32 eligible rats),then were randomly grouped into 3 days,7 days,14 days and 21 days group,8 eyes in each group.The rats were observed and photographed anterior segment of each group,evaluated the corneal inflammation index,then removed the eyeball of the rats in the corresponding time points.The eyeballs were made into pathological tissue section and stained with HE method.The number of inflammatory cells in the cornea was calculated,and the expression of TLR-2,TLR-4,IL-1 beta and TNF alpha was detected in the rat cornea with method of Western blot protein detection at the same time.The differences of each group were analyzed,and the correlation was assessed between TLRs and inflammatory factor.Results There were the expressions of TLR-2,TLR-4,IL-1 beta and TNF alpha in the normal rat cornea,and its expressions were gradually increased after alkali burn,reached the peak at the 7 days,then decreased gradually,the difference of each group (the 3 day,the 7 day,the 14 day,the 21 day) was statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).The expressions of TLR-2 and IL-1 beta (r =0.986,P ＜ 0.05),TNF alpha (r =0.986,P ＜ 0.05) were positive correlated.The expressions of TLR-4 and IL-1 beta(r =0.975,P ＜ 0.05),TNF alpha (r =0.990,P ＜0.05) were positive correlated.Conclusion TLRs participates and may start immune inflammatory response after corneal alkali burn,mediates the production of inflammatory cytokine.

AIM: To investigate the effect of lowering intraocular pressure ( IOP ) and side effect of travoprost ( TA ) on phacoemulsification and intraoclular lens ( IOL ) implantation in primary open-angle glaucoma ( POAG) .
METHODS: Patients with POAG already received surgery of phacoemulsification and IOL implantation were selected by randomized, single - blind, parallel group trial. TA was applied once a day in 43 patients (43 eyes) of treatment group and brinzolamide was used twice in 43 patients ( 43 eyes ) of control group. All patients were observed for 12wk. IOP, ocular symptom and adverse reaction etc. were observed.
RESULTS: The daily average IOP ( mean ± standard deviation) in the treatment group decreased from (24. 20±3.01)mmHg (1mmHg=0.133kPa) to (16.77±2.89)mmHg and that in the control group was from ( 23. 87±3. 47 ) mmHg to ( 18. 81± 3. 07 ) mmHg. IOP pre- and pro-treatment within two groups had significant difference ( P<0. 01), IOP between the groups at each time point had statistical difference (P<0. 05). Conjunetival congestion increased and itching in treatment group was obviously more serious than that in the control group, but the treatment could continue. No other ocular and systemic adverse events related to the drugs were found.
CONCLUSION: It is demonstrated that travoprost is highly effective and safe in reducing IOP in POAG already received surgery of phacoemulsification and IOL implantation.

Objective:To construct the extracellular region of the human TRAIL cDNA expression vector and express and purify the extracellular region of the TRAIL protein. Methods: The mRNA of TRAIL was extracted from CD3 activated normal human PBMC and used as a template for reverse transcription. After PCR amplification, a 730 bp fragment including extracellular region was obtained and cloned into pGEX-2T.The recombinant vector was named pGEX/TRAILex. The pGEX/TRAILex vector was transformed into E.coli DH5a. After IPTIG induced at lower temperature, the collection of the sonicated extract was purified by using the GST agarose 4B. The purified fusion protein was identified by Western blotting with anti-TRAIL McAb.Results:The pGEX/TRAILex was constructed. After IPTG induced,a high level expression of the extracellular region of the TRAIL protein was obtained, SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the recombinant E. coli could express a 54 kD GST fusion protein which accounted for about 28% of the total cellular protein. The study of solubility of expression protein indicated that GST-Tex was expressed predominantly in the soluble form.The purified production was obtained 2.2 mg/L of culture media and the purity of the GST-Tex was more than 95%. GST/TRATLex protein could be recognized by anti-TRAL McAb in Western blot. Conclusion:The expression of recombinant extracellular domain of the human TRAIL protein may be useful for the study of biological functions of TRAIL and it's biotheraphy in tumor.

OBJECTIVE: Understand the changes before and after treatment in patients with severe OSAHS serum S100β protein, NSE levels and cognitive function. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of cognitive dysfunction in patients with severe OSAHS. Serum S100β protein, NSE levels and cognitive function were examined before and after the therapy. METHOD: Select one hundred patients diagnosed as severe OSAHS were included, by polysomnography (PSG) diagnosis of severe OSAHS patients. Determination of serum S100β protein, and NSE levels and theat the same time be MoCA score were checked at after the day after admission, CPAP treatment for the 7th days after CPAP treatment and the 90th day after, comprehensive treatment in these patients for 3 months. Assessment of severe OSAHS patients with serum S100β protein, NSE basic level and MoCA score situation. Comparison of three groups serum S100β protein, NSE levels and MoCA score changes. Serum S100β protein, NSE detection assay (ELISA) method using enzyme-linked immunosorbent. RESULT: (1) Severe OSAHS patients with serum S100β protein, and NSE levels in severe OSAHS patients were positively correlated with AHI, but negatively correlated with lowest oxygen saturation (LSaO2); (2) MoCA score in patients with severe OSAHS was significantly negatively correlated with AHI, but positively correlated with LSaO2; (3) S100β protein, NSE levels were negatively correlated with MoCA score; (4) Compared with admission, serum S100β protein, and NSE levels in these patients have declined after 7 days CPAP therapy, compared with admission the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After 3 months of comprehensive treatment, patients' serum S100β protein and, NSE levels were significantly decreased, compared with the admission and the 7th days after CPAP treatment. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). (5) After CPAP treatment for 7 days, the MoCA scores were slightly higher, but have there was no statistically significant difference compared with the admission (P > 0.05). After 3 months of comprehensive treatment, MoCA score improved significantly, compared with the admission and 7 days after CPAP treatment the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Comprehensive treatment can reduce serum S100β protein, and NSE levels, and improve MoCA score. Disease severity in patients with OSAHS have a correlation some relative.with the serum S100β protein, NSE levels and MoCA score.
