2.Comparison of two different drug therapies for acute retinal necrosis syndrome
International Eye Science 2016;16(7):1366-1368
AIM: To investigate clinical efficacy of two drug therapies ( acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin) for acute retinal necrosis syndrome.
METHODS: Thirty patients (40 eyes) with acute retinal necrosis syndrome in our hospital were randomly divided into group A and B. Group A was treated with acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, and group B was given ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin. Clinical effects in the two groups were observed and compared.
RESULTS: After treatment, the overall response rate in group B (90%) was obviously higher than that in group A (70%), both of two regimens were effective, without significant difference (P>0. 05). There was no significant difference on the pre - treatment visual acuity between the two groups (P>0. 05). After different treatments, the visual acuity in group B was ≥0. 5 in 12 eyes, 0. 1≤and<0. 5 in 4 eyes, 0. 02 ≤ and < 0. 1 in 3 eyes, and no photosensitive in 1 eye. The visual acuity in group A was≥0. 5 in 9 eyes, 0. 1≤and<0. 5 in 3 eyes, 0. 02≤and<0. 1 in 6 eyes, and no photosensitive in 2 eyes. The recovery of visual acuity in group B was obviously better than that in A group ( P < 0. 05). The incidence of complications such as retinal tear, herpes, mouth ulcers, chickenpox, viral encephalitis and central nervous system diseases in group B (10%) was significantly lower than that in A group (35%,P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Two drug therapies ( acyclovir with prednisone acetate tablets, ganciclovir with prednisone acetate tablets and aspirin ) both have positive therapeutic effect, but the latter can better restore visual acuity and decrease the complications.

Objective To investigate the changes and significance of I?B kinase-?(I?K-?) in the lung tissues of rabbits with hemorrhagic shock.Methods The expressions of I?K-? and NF-?B in the lung tissues and the concentration of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) in the plasma were measured by in situ hybridization(ISH),immunohitochemistry and enzyme linked immune adsorbent analysis(ELISA), respectively. And the pathological changes were examined with light microscope in lung tissues.Results In hemorrhagic shock group,the expressions of I?K-?(0 1685?0 0164)and NF-?B( 0 1469?0 0083)in lung tissues , the level of TNF-?(636 72?100 23) in the plasma were obviously higher than those of normal group [I?K-?(0 0427?0 0241),NF-?B(0 0358?0 0048),TNF-?(199 51?35 69)ng/L](all P

Objective To investigate the preventive mechanism of Anisodamine (654-2) on multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) of rabbits. Methods Rabbit model of MODS induced by hemorrhagic shock and endotoxin was used in this study. Twenty-four rabbits were randomly divided into the control group (C group) , hemorrhagic shock plus endotoxin group (M group) and 654-2 treatment group (T group). The expression of IKK-? of pulmonary alveolar macrophage (PAM) and kuffer cell(KC), the NF-?B activity of nuclear protein extracted from PAM and KC and the concentration of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?) in the culture supernatant were measured by in situ hybridization (ISH), electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and enzyme linked immune absorbent analysis(ELISA), respectively. Then the blood air, biochemical and pathological changes in visceral organs were examined in each groups. Results In PAM and KC of M group, The expression of IKK-? mRNA [(0 15?0 03);(0 17?0 04)], the activity of NF-?B [(1 49?0 30);(1 72?0 36)] and the secretion level of TNF-? [( 279 74?25 91);(300 05?30 86)ng/L] were significantly higher than those of control group (P

Objective To optimize purification technology of total lignans in Myristicae Semen; To study its anti-inflammatory effects. Methods Macroporous adsorption resin was used for enrichment and purification of total lignans in Myristicae Semen, with adsorption rate, desorption rate and content of total lignans as indexes. The resin type, concentration of eluent, sample weight and dosage of eluen were investigated. Anti-inflammatory effects were studied by determining swelling degree and inhibition rate of mice with ear swelling induced by xylene. Results Purification technology of total lignans was processed on type of AB-8 resin. 1 g crude extract was dissolved as sample; 40 mL preprocessed resin including 16 g resin was added and static adsorpted for 12 hours; 30% ethanol was used firstly to elute to colorless and then 300 mL 70% ethanol was used to elute; the eluent of 70% ethanol was collected. The purity of total lignans was 45.8%. There was statistical significance in ear swelling degree of total lignans in Myristicae Semen high-, medium-, and low-dosage groups compared with model group (P<0.05). Conclusion The purification technology of total lignans is stable and reproducible, and total lignans in Myristicae Semen has significant anti-inflammatory activity.

Objective To investigate the effects of sevoflurane post-conditioning on oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction during rat cerebral ischemia-reperfusion, and to explore its cerebral protective mechanism.Methods Thirty-six health male Sprague-Dawley rats (aged 12-14 weeks, weighing 220-260 g) were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=12 each): sham control group (group Sham), cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (group IR), sevoflurane post-conditioning group (group SPC).Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model was established, ischemia for 30 min followed by reperfusion 24 h.Rat middle cerebral artery was not occluded in group Sham.Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model was established in group IR.Group SPC was subjected to 2.6% sevoflurane for 15 min in the beginning of reperfusion.At the end of reperfusion, rats were cut off the head to take out the brain tissue.The expression level of Iba-1 and HO-1 proteins was measured by western blot.The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), TNF-α, IL-1β and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were evaluated.Results Compared with group Sham, the expression of cerebral cortex Iba-1 protein was higher than that in groups IR and SPC (P<0.05), the expression of Iba-1 protein in group SPC was lower than that in group IR (P<0.05).Compared with group Sham, the contents of ROS, MDA, TNF-α and IL-1β were increased in groups IR and SPC (P<0.05), but the activity of SOD and expression of HO-1 protein were decreased (P<0.05).And the contents of ROS, MDA, TNF-α and IL-1β in group SPC were less than those in group IR, the activity of SOD and expression of HO-1 protein in group SPC were higher than those in group IR.Conclusion Sevoflurane post-conditioning can mitigate the microglia activation, reduce cerebral oxidative stress and inflammation, thus protect rat cerebral against ischemia reperfusion injury.
