Diabetic microangiopathy is one of the most common chronic diabetic complications,which is associated with the genetic predispositions and environmental factors.Well-controlled blood glucose alone can not reduce the morbility or prevent the process of diabetic microangiopathy.The therapy aiming at the pathogenesis is an urgent request.The various proteins related to the development and progression of diabetic microangiopathiy were reviewed,aiming at providing the potential target for early diagnosis and efficient therapy.

Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;(10):893-896
Background Corneal chemical burns,especially hazards of alkali burn become increasingly prominent.Clinically,anti-inflammatory,immuno-suppression,corneal transplantation are the common treating method for corneal alkali burn.But the research of tissue repair under the microenvironment of corneal alkali burn is necessary.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of deproteinised calf serum eye gel on the corneal alkali burn.Methods Alkali burn model of cornea was established on the right eyes by putting the filter paper with 0.5 mol/L NaOH on the center cornea for 1 minute in 24 white rabbits.The model rabbits were divided randomly into 4 groups.Normal saline solution,deproteinised calf serum eye gel,blank matrix gel or recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor(rb-bFGF)eye-gel was topically administered 4 times per day for 14days in the 4 groups,respectively.The inflammatory reaction was examined under the slit lamp and scored based on Ando' s criteria.Corneal fluorescine staining was performed to calculate the corneal ulcer area and scored based on Trousdale' s criteria.Histopathological examination of corneas was performed on the fourtcenth day after experiment.The use of the experiment animals complied with ARVO Statement.Results Corneal edema and opacification were seen in the model eyes with the modeling successful rate 100%.On the seventh day after experiment,the severe ulcer of cornea and hypopyon appeared in the normal saline solution group.Corneal epithelium was intact but the intrarocular structure was invisible in the blank matrix gel group.In th(c) rb-bFCF group,corneal new vessels were seen,however,the corneal ulcer completely regrow in the deproteinised calf serum eye gel group.In 3,5,7,10 and 14days after examination,the corneal inflammatory scores were significantly lower in the deproteinised calf serum eye gel group and rb-bFGF group than those of the normal saline solution(P<0.01).No significant difference was found in the inflammatory score between the deproteinised calf serum eye gel group and rb-bFGF group (P>0.05) but was significantly lower than the blank gel matrix group (P < 0.05).With respect to the corneal ulcer,the score was decreased in the deproteinised calf serum eye gel group compared with the normal saline solution group and blank gel matrix group (P < 0.05).Howcver,no significant difference was found in the corneal ulcer score between the deproteinised calf serum eye gel group and rb-bFGF group in various time points (P> 0.05).Conclusions Deproteinised calf serum eye gel can promote the healing of corneal ulcer and remit the inflammatory response afler corneal alkali burns with a better effectiveness than rb-bFGF.

Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 1994;0(04):-
Objective To observe neutrophil activation and protease imbalance in airway of children after foreign-body aspiration(FBA).Methods Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) was obtained through fiberoptic bronchoscopy.The supernatant was assayed for the concentration of neutrophil elastase(NE) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and elastase inhibition capacity(EIC)/free elastase activity using a colorimetric assay.The cell pellet were smeared for the expression of ?1-antitrypsin(?1-AT) using cellular immunohisto-chemistry and cytologic analysis by Wright-Giemsa stain.Results Percentage of neutrophil,concentration of NE and the expression of ?1-AT in BLAF group,pair group and pneumonia group significantly increased compared with that of control group(Pa0.05).The ratio of Lib NE in FBA,par and peumcria group was 30.3%,27.3% and 22.7%.Conclusions FBA induces similar airway neutrophil activation and protease imbalance to bacterial pneumonia.The contralateral airway showes the same change as the foreign body side.

Background The key premise of genetic research and treatment is to select the desired gene vector,ultrasound microbubbles as a new type of gene vector can safe,fast and effectively enhance the gene transfection and expression by reversibility increasing the permeability of cells. Objective This study was to observe the effects of ciliary neurotrophic factor(CNTF)gene mediated by ultrasound microbubbles intraocular transfer on visual function and retinal ganglion cell(BGCs)after optic nerve injury. Methods Fifty-five adult Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were divided into 6 groups randomly,including normal control group(n=5),sham injury group(n=10),simple injury group(n=10),naked plasmid group(n=10),plasmid+ultrasonic irradiation group(n=10)and ultrasound microbubbles group(n=10).The model of optic nerve injury Was made by forceps clip on the fight optic nerve.and the corresponding intervene was performed in different groups.Flash visual evoked potential(F

Objective To report specific clinico-radiological syndromes in neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE).Methods Ten patients with NPSLE in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2005 to 2011 were studied retrospectively with magnetic resonance imaging, computer tomography or positron emission tomography. Results Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome was diagnosed in 2 patients with radiological features,headache and tonic-clonic seizure;3 patients with bilateral diffuse leukoencephalopathy,cognitive disorder and acute confusional state; 1 Fahr' s disease patient,with cognitive disorder and psychiatric symptom,movement disorder; 2 Parkinsonism patients with tremor and cogwheel rigidity,and 2 chorea patients. Conclusions The emergence of diffuse brain calcinosis,leukoencephalopathy and edema may happen in lupus encephalopathy particularly.Autoantibody reaction and vascular disease may play an important role in movement disorder including Parkinsonism and chorea.

To develop a LC-MS/MS method for the determination of protocatechuic acid, protocatechuic aldehyde, salvianolic acid A, salvianolic acid B, cryptotanshinone and tanshinone II(A) in rat plasma and brain. The plasma and brain samples were precipitated with ethyl acetate, then were separated on an Agilent eclipse plus-C18 column (2.1 mm x 50 mm, 3.5 microm) using acetonitrile (consisting of 0.1% formic acid) and water (consisting of 0.1% formic acid) as mobile phase in gradient elution mode. The mass spectrometer was operated under both positive and negative ion mode with the ESI source, and the detection was performed by MRM. The transition of 154.3/153.1 m/z for protocatechuic acid, 137.3/108 m/z for protocatechuic aldehyde, 493.0/295.2 m/z for Salvianolic acid A, 718.0/520.0 m/z for salvianolic acid B, 321.4/152.3 m/z for chloramphenicol, 297.4/254.3 m/z for cryptotanshinone, 295.5/249.3 m/z for tanshinone II(A) and 285.2/154.0 m/z for Diazepam. The calibration curves in the range of 0.625-1 000 microg x L(-1) for protocatechuic acid and protocatechuic aldehyde, 1.25-1 000 microg x L(-1) for salvianolic acid A, 2.5-1 000 microg x L(-1) for salvianolic acid B, 0.15-1 000 microg x L(-1) for cryptotanshinone, 0.625-1 000 microg x L(-1) for tanshinone II(A) are with good linearityin rat plasma and brain. The analysis method is sensitive, simple, and suitable enough to be applied in the pharmacokinetic study of the 6 main components. Animal testing gives the lgBB of the drugs and further studies of the 6 components cross the blood-brain barrier can be carried out.
