Background Penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) has become an effective method of treatment for fungal keratitis in recent years,but the application timing of glucocorticoids after PKP is still unclear.Literature reported that the concentration of tear (1,3)-β-D-glucan in fungal keratitis was significantly higher than that in normal.Objective This study was to investigate the change of tear (1,3)-β-D-glucan before and after PKP in fungal keratitis and to explore the application duration of anti-fungal drugs and application timing of glucocorticoids.Methods This study protocol was approved by ethic committee of Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University.A serial cases-observational study was performed from August,2011 to December,2012.Twenty eyes of 20 patients with fungal keratitis were collected in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University.PKP was performed in affected eyes,and the fellow health eyes served as controls.Tear of 50 μl was obtained in the controls on 1 day before operation and 1 day,7,14,21 and 28 days after operation to detect tear (1,3)-β-D-glucan levels.Results Tear (1,3)-β-D-glucan levels were (14.67±3.84)mg/L,(1 861.66±196.17) mg/L,(927.71±155.82)mg/L,(392.30±71.22)mg/L,(179.60±40.47) mg/L,(40.20± 12.46) mg/L and (15.12± 1.80) mg/L in the control group,preoperative 1 day,postoperative 1 day,7,14,21,28 days,respectively,showing a significant difference among various time points (F=883.45,P=0.00).Tear (1,3)-β3-D-glucan levels were gradually reduced with the lapse of the postoperative time,with significant differences between adjacent timepoints (t' =13.84,t =16.67,t' =11.02,t' =13.97,t' =-8.45,all at P=0.00).Tear (1,3)-β-D-glucan levels in postoperative 28 days came near that of normal control group,without significant difference between them (P =0.64).Fungal keratitis recurred in 2 eyes on the fifth and sixth day after operation,with the tear (1,3)-β-D-glucan levels of 2 350.24 mg/L and 1 992.82 mg/L,respectively.Conclusions The concentration of (1,3)-β-D-glucan in the tears increases in the eyes with fungal keratitis and drops to normal range at 28 days after PKP,indicating that the antifungal eyedrops should be applied until 4 weeks after PKP,and this is an optimal timing of using corticosteroid eyedrops to resist reject reaction.

Background: Studies showed that aberrant activation of JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway promoted the tumorigenesis and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) has either tumor-suppressing or tumor-promoting effect in regulation of tumor progression.Aims: To investigate the effect of specific inhibition of JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway on HCC and whether TGF-β1 signaling pathway is involved in this process or not.Methods: Thirty Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: control group, HCC group, and HCC+AG490 group.In the latter two groups, diethylnitrosamine was administered in drinking water to induce HCC model, and in HCC+AG490 group, AG490, a specific inhibitor of JAK was injected intraperitoneally in the first week of model establishment.At the end of the 16th week, all rats were sacrificed.The maximum diameter of tumor nodules in the liver was recorded and the number of tumors with maximum diameter greater than 1 cm was counted.Expression and distribution of STAT3 and TGF-β1 in liver tissue were determined by real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence.Results: Compared with the control group, expressions of STAT3 and TGF-β1 mRNA in liver tissue were significantly increased in HCC group (P<0.05).Phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3) and TGF-β1 proteins were absent in liver tissue in control group, and both were up-regulated and co-expressed in HCC group.While in HCC+AG490 group, expressions of STAT3 and TGF-β1 mRNA were significantly lower than those in HCC group (P<0.05);the liver tissue was weakly positive for p-STAT3 and TGF-β1 proteins, and the number of tumor nodules greater than 1 cm and the maximum diameter were markedly reduced when compared with the HCC group [1.20±1.03 and (1.14±0.18) cm vs.4.30±1.06 and (1.78±0.27) cm, P all<0.05].Conclusions: Specific inhibition of JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway may restrain the tumorigenesis and progression of HCC partially by interfering TGF-β1 signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the induction of apoptosis by isoalantolactone in human cervical cancer Hela cells is mediated through ROS generation and Mitochondrial dysfunction. Methods: Cells were treated with isoalantolactone in a dose-dependent manner in the presence or absence of NAC for 24 h as the experimental group,and the normal cells were used as control group. Cell viabilities were determined by the MTT assay;the nuclear morphology of Hela cells were observed under fluorescence microscope using the Hoechst 33258 staining;apoptosiscell cycle and reactive oxygen species ( ROS ) and mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP) were measured by flow cytometry;the protein expression levels of cytochrome C,Bcl-2,Bax and Caspase-3 were detected by Western blot. Results:In the present study,we found that isoalantolactone inhibits growth in a dose-dependent manner in Hela cells. Further studies revealed that Hela cells were treated with 20 and 40 μmol/L isoalantolactone for 24 h,after which we could observe the fragmented nuclei and the increased apoptosis rate. And we also found that isoalantolactone arrested the cell cycle at S phase and increased generation of reactive oxygen species and dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential (△ψm) in Hela cells. While pretreatment with NAC obviously blocked the apoptotic and inhibition effect of isoalantolactone indicating that induction of apoptosis is ROS-dependent,Western blot study showed that isoalantolactone increased the expression of Bax and cleaved Caspase-3 and decreased the expression of Bcl-2 with concomitant release of cytochrome C from mitochondria into cytosol. Conclusion: Isoalantolactone could inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of human cervical cancer Hela cells in vitro through mediating ROS generation and Mi-tochondrial dysfunction, the mechanism of which is also accompanied by up-regulation of Bax expression, down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression,activation of Caspase-3 and release of cytochrome C.
