Objective: To investigate the inhibitory effect of soluble KDR(sKDR) and its antibody on endotheliocyte(EC) proliferation.Methods: The binding of sKDR with VEGF was detected by ELISA. The KDR262 antiserum was prepared from rabbit and the specificity was defined by Western blot. The inhibition of EC proliferation was analyzed by 3H-TdR up-take, MTT and cell counter. Results: The sKDR could bind to VEGF165 specially, the ability was enhanced by heparin. The specific binding of KDR262 antiserum to KDR was also detected. The inhibitory rate of sKDR(10,2,0 4?g/ml) on EC proliferation was 56%,44%,32% respectively. The inhibitory rate of KDR262 antiserum (1∶50,1∶200,1∶800) was 70%, 56%,43% respectively. The cell counter also showed that EC proliferation was inhibited significantly in sKDR group and KDR262 antibody group, vs VEGF165 group, GST group and PBS group. The inhibitory effect was characterized by concentration-dependent and was higher in KDR262 antibody group than that in sKDR group. Conclusion: sKDR expressed by E.coli and its antibody had significant inhibitory influence on EC proliferation.

To understand the adverse drug reaction (ADR) induced by Mailuoning injection. 162 ADRs due to the drug were retrieved from national medical journals of 1988-2007 for statistics. It was shown that there was no relationship between ADR and dosage, but ADR appeared mostly in middle-aged and old groups, and more in male than in female. The occurrence of ADR was commonly within 30 min after injection. It involved injuries of various systems and organs. As for the 123 cases of allergy, 38 were anaphylactic shock (accounting for 23.46%), two people died. ADR characterized by immediate type on initial use and tachy type. It should be paid more attention to the Mailuoning injection for the immediate hypersensitivity reaction (such as anaphylactic shock).

Background Metadherin is a newly discovered oncogene.It is highly expressed in some solid tumors and plays a significant role in invasion and metastasis of neoplasm as an important biological marker of aggressive cancers.However,there is little data available for the relationship between metadherin expression and clinicopathologic features of retinoblastoma(RB).Objective This study was to investigate the expression of the metadherin in RB cell lines and specimens as well as its clinical significance.Methods The expression of metadherin mRNA in different metastatic potential of RB cell lines(Y79,WERI-RB1 and SO-RB50)was detected by real-time PCR,and the protein expression of metadherin (MDTH)in paraffin-embedded RB tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry.The relevance of metadherin expression to clinical histopathological features was statistically analyzed.Results The relative expression value of metadherin mRNA was 6.11±0.17,6.21±0.21 and 3.97±0.17 in Y79,SORB50,WERI-RB1,respectively,with a significant difference among the three types of cell lines(F =142.643,P<0.05).The relative expression value of metadherin mRNA was significantly higher in Y79 or SO-RB50 than that in W ERI-RB1 (P=0.000).The expression of MTDH protein mostly located in the cellular membrane and cytoplasm.Among the 54 RB sections,35 (64.81%)showed a high intensity in expression of metadherin protein.The total score of metadherin protein expression was higher in the E stage of RB than that of D stage(P=0.035),in the patients with high-risk factor than those without high-risk factor(P=0.002)and the cases with optic nerve invasion compared to non-invasion (P=0.017).However,no significant differences were found in the expression of metadherin protein between different ages (P =0.579),different genders (P =0.513),bilateral eyes (P =0.305),different disease courses (P=0.860),various types of differentiation (P =0.537),different degree of the ehoroid invasion (P =0.238),and with or without invasion of the anterior ocular segment (P =0.579).Conclusions Metadherin appears to be highly expressed in RB cells.The activation of the MTDH gene is associated with invasion and metastasis of RB.These results imply that the dynamic change of metadherin expression probably is a prognostic indicator of RB.

?AIM:To compare the changes of the contrast sensitivity after LASIK with femtosecond laser and microkeratome and to explore the influence of different methods making corneal flap on visual quality.? METHODS: There were 212 eyes in 106 myopes underwent excimer operation . According to the different methods of operation, they were divided into two groups:microkeratome group ( SBK group ) and femtosecond laser group ( FS group) . FS group: a total of 112 eyes in 56 patients received LASIK with femtosecond laser. SBK group: a total of 100 eyes in 50 patients received LASIK with microkeratome. Contrast sensitivity was detected preoperatively, and 1wk, 3mo postoperatively and compared between the two groups.? RESULTS: At 1wk after operation, the contrast sensitivity under photopic environment decreased in the two groups, compared with those before operation ( P<0. 05). The differences of contrast sensitivity before and 3mo after operation were not significant (P>0. 05). No statistical significant difference was found in contrast sensitivity under photopic environment at 1wk, 3mo between the two groups ( P>0. 05 ). At 1wk after the operation, the contrast sensitivity under scotopic environment decreased in both groups compared with those before operation ( P< 0. 05 ). In SBK group, it decreased more than in FS group (P<0. 05). After 3mo, the decline of 14. 2c/d spatial frequency contrast sensitivity under scotopic environment in the SBK group was more than other frequency. No statistical significant difference was found in the rest frequency contrast sensitivity under scotopic environment before and after operation (P>0. 05). After 1wk, contrast sensitivity with glare stimulation in both groups decreased, compared with those before operation ( P< 0. 05 ), while in SBK group, it decreased more than in FS group (P<0. 05). After 3mo, except that the decline of 14. 2c/d spatial frequency contrast sensitivity with glare stimulation in the SBK group was significant compared with those before operation, the contrast sensitivity under glare stimulation in both groups had no significant differences compared with before operation(P>0. 05).?CONCLUSION:LASIK with femtosecond laser can get a better visual quality than LASIK with microkeratome.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of sample pooling strategy on 2019-nCoV RNA detection results.Methods:Ten negative swabs were stored in 6 ml virus transport medium, mixed thoroughly and diluted 1∶2 and 1∶10. Inactivated 2019-nCoV culture medium was added to simulate pooling samples: 10 pooling samples, 5 pooling samples and 1 swab sample. Extraction and amplification were made using three nucleic acid extraction reagents a, b, and c with different extraction methods and systems, as well as five 2019-nCoV detection reagents A-E with various template loading volumes and sensitivities respectively.Results:For the same sample, the Ct values of extracted templates a were 2.10±0.47 and 3.46±0.62 earlier than extracted templates b and c. For samples with identical amplifying, the Ct valves of N and ORF1ab gene of A reagent were 1.16±0.48 and 2.36±0.54 earlier than that of reagent B. Adding nucleic acid of 10 negative swabs to the amplification system lagged the Ct values of reagent A by about 1.36±0.32 Ct, while Ct values of reagent B were not affected. Extracted by regent a, a lag of 1.66±0.39 Ct on average was observed in C, D, and E reagents in detecting pooling samples of ten swabs as compared with one swab sample. When extracting 400 copies/ml pooling samples of ten swabs by reagent a, N gene could be detected by reagents C and E, but not by reagent D.Conclusion:Large amount of extraneous DNA is introduced by sample pooling, which could interfere the effiency of extraction and amplification. Strategies of using extraction reagents with large loading volume and high effiency, together with amplification reagents with large template volume and low limit of detection are helpful for ensuring detection sensitivity of pooling samples, and greatly reducing the risk of false negative results.
