Diabetic cataract is an metabolic-type cataract. Its pathogenesis mechanism is not completely clear. Researches demonstrated that glycosylation plays an increasingly important role in the formation of diabetic cataract,and increased blood glucose level promote the pathogenesis and progression of diabetic disease by accelerate the glycosylation response. Therefore, more researches on advanced glycation end products(AGEs) and its inhibitors is being concerned. The advance in the study of AGEs concept, its effect on diabetic cataract formation, the influence of AGEs inhibitor on diabetic cataract are summarized in this article.

Objective To investigate the effect of high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1) on inter-leukin-2 (1L-2) and interleukin-2 receptor α (IL-2α) expressions in human T lymphocytes and its potential regulat-ing mechanism in vitro. Method Human T lymphocytes were isolated and suspended, the cells were cultured with 20 μg/mL phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in 5% CO_2 at 37 ℃, recombinant human HMGB1 (rhHMGB1, 0, 10, 100, 1000 ng/mL) was added with the PHA and cultures were centrifuged at 12 and 48 hours for cell collect-ing. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) amplification was perfomed to determine gene ex-pressions of IL-2, IL-2Rα. IL-2, sIL-2R protein levels in cell culture supematants were measured by ELIZA. Re-sults After coincubated with rhHMGB1 (10, 100, and 1000 ng/mL) for 12 hours, IL-2 levels in cell culture su-pernatants respectively were 0 . 064 ± 0. 017 μg/L, 0.076±0.033 μg/L, and 0.061 ±0.02 μg/L, which were significantly higher compared with the untreated cells (0.045±0.011 μg/L, P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Mean-while, IL-2 mRNA expression was markedly up-regulated following rhHMGB1 stimulation in various doses (F = 4.6872, P < 0.01). At 48 bourn, however, both IL-2 mRNA expression and protein production tended to de-crease along with an increased dose of dd-IMGB1 stimulationn. IL-2/sIL-2R ratio in 1000 ng/mL rhHMGB1 was markedly lower than that in 10 ng/ml rhHMGB1 (0.036±0.015 vs.0.055±0.017, P <0.05), together with down-regulation of IL-2Rα mRNA expression(P <0.01). Conclusions These data indieated that HMGBI could marked influence the IL-2/IL-2R expression in human T lymphocytes. With the increase in stimulating doses and prolongation of time, HMGBI might down-regulate T cell-mediated immune response of human lymphocytes.

Objective To establish a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method for rapid detection of three kinds of di‐arrheagenic Escherichia coli(EPEC ,EIEC ,EHEC)simultaneously .Methods The eae gene of EPEC ,ipaH gene of EIEC and stx1 gene of EHEC were selected to design primers ;the reaction system and condition were adjusted to optimize the multiplex PCR sys‐tem .Results The target gene fragments were amplified correctly with these primers .The three target bacteria could be detected at the same time by multiplex PCR .Conclusion A rapid multiplex PCR system were successfully established for detection of three di‐arrheagenic Escherichia coli ,and this system could be suitable for rapid screening in food safety .

Objective To investigate the therapy of DHS,PFNA and Intertan nail for the treatment in elderly patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods One hundred and one elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures were collected.Thirty-four cases of them were undertaken DHS (DHS group),33 cases for PFNA (PFNA group),and 34 cases for Intertan nail (INTERTAN group).Operative time,blood loss and complications were observed.Results The Operative time of patients in DHS,PFNA and Intertan groups were (85.1 ± 8.9) min,(63.1 ± 8.2) min,(57.9 ± 9.2) min respectively and the difference was significant (F=12.761,P＜0.001).The blood loss amount in DHS group were (350.1 ±80.2)ml,lower that those in PFNA and Intertan groups ((137.5 ± 35.4) ml and (125.2 ± 38.2) ml,F =20.462,P ＜ 0.001).Meanwhile,the postoperative drainage in DHS group was (125.3 ± 20.4) ml,significantly higher than PFNA group and INTERTAN group ((69.4 ± 9.2) ml and (74.6 ± 10.4) ml; F =15.871,P ＜0.001).Operative time,blood loss amount in INTERTAN group were less than that in PFNA group,but no significant difference (P ＞0.05).Nonunion in DHS group was significantly higher than the other two groups (8.82％ vs 0％ and 0％,x2 =6.092,P =0.047).Excellent rate in DHS group,PFNA group and Intertan group were 82.3％ (28/ 34),87.8％ (29/33),85.3％ (29/34) respectively,and there was no significant difference (x2 =0.591,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with DHS,Intertan nail and PFNA have advantage of shorter operative time,stronger anti-rotation capability and less various postoperative complication rates,thus they are more suitable for elderly osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture.

BACKGROUND:More and more evidence have shown that autoimmune-induced inflammatory demyelinating mostly leads to optic neuritis that is quite an early manifestation of multiple sclerosis, but whether the pathogenesis of optic neuritis in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice is correlated with helper T cellsubsets has rarely been reported.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the correlation between pathogenesis of optic neuritis of mouse EAE model with helper T cellsubsets.
METHODS:The mice were injected intraperitoneal y Bordetel a pertussis to establish EAE models. Then, the animal models were subjected to immunization for 11, 15, 19 days, respectively. Mice undergoing intraperitoneal injection of normal saline served as controls (adjuvant group).
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the adjuvant group, the protein expression of interleukin 4 in the optic nerve decreased in the 19-day immunization group (P<0.05);the protein expression of interleukin 17 in the optic nerve increased in the 11-and 15-day immunization groups (P<0.05);the protein expression of interferonγin the optic nerve increased in the 15-and 19-day immunization groups (P<0.05);the protein expression of Foxp3 in the optic nerve decreased in the 11-, 15-and 19-day immunization groups (P<0.05). Real-time PCR results showed that compared with the adjuvant group, the mRNA expression of interferonγand Foxp3 in the optic nerve decreased (P<0.05), while mRNA expression of RORt increased in the 11-, 15-and 19-day immunization groups;the mRNA expression of interleukin 4, interleukin 17, T-beat increased in the 15-and 19-day immunization groups (P<0.05);the mRNA expression of GATA3 reduced in the 19-day immunization group (P<0.05). These results reveal that Foxp3 expression and helper T cellreduction have important influences on the development of optic neuritis in EAE mouse models, interleukin 17 may mediates inflammatory injury in the early stage, while interferon-γmakes inflammatory injury worse in the peak incidence of the disease.

Objective To discuss the application of the bolus chasing DSA technology in angiography in thoracic, abdominal, common iliac and four limbs′ arteries. Methods Bolus chasing DSA with Mask Before program of the system was performed in 40 procedures in 25 patients, using the control handle to control the moving of the bed, and obtained the real time bolus chasing DSA pictures at the blood stream speed. Results In the 40 procedures, photographing in 35 had good qualities, accounting for 87.5%, but not good in 5, accounting for 12 5%, which could still meet the request of diagnosing after non subtraction processing. Conclusion Bolus chasing DSA could display a large scale of anatomical skeleton and blood stream condition from chest to the four limbs exactly. It was a new method that could be taken to observe real time continuous multi sections of blood vessel structure.
