Objective:Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common cause of adult blindness in China. Screening of DR is important for early detection, prevention, and treatment. However, there is still controversy in the research on the prevalence and risk factors of DR in China. This study was designed to evaluate the prevalence of DR and related risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Beijing City.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted in in Dongcheng District and Tongzhou District, Beijing City. Patients with type 2 diabetes aged 18-80 years were selected from four communities, and all subjects underwent questionnaires, physical examinations, laboratory examinations and fundus photography. The logistic regression model was used to analyze the associated factors of DR.Results:A total of 1 531 subjects were included, with the median age of 66 years old and the average age of (65.6±7.4) years old, and the glycosylated hemoglobin level in the subjects was 7.2%±1.3%, and the glycosylated hemoglobin compliance rate was 56.0%(857/1 531). A total of 254 patients with diabetic retinopathy were detected, and the prevalence of DR was 16.6%(254/1 531). Among them, there were 218 cases of non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy and 36 cases of proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Compared with the non-DR group, there were statistically significant differences in fasting blood glucose ( Z=-3.74, P<0.001), glycosylated hemoglobin( Z=-10.664, P<0.001), urinary microalbumin excretion rate( Z=-7.767, P<0.001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol( Z=-2.589, P=0.01), and duration of diabetes( Z=-10.189, P<0.001) between the DR group and the non-DR group. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the duration of diabetes ( OR=1.08, 95% CI: 1.06-1.10, P<0.001), glycosylated hemoglobin ( OR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.23-1.55, P<0.001), and FPG ( OR=1.11, 95% CI: 1.03-1.19, P=0.008) were associated factors for DR. Conclusion:In this study, the prevalence of DR in 4 communities of type 2 diabetes in Beijing City was 16.6%. Besides, this study further confirmed that the duration of diabetes, fasting blood glucose levels, and glycosylated hemoglobin are associated factors for DR in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Objective:To select human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cell line K562 as the experimental object, and use lentivirus mediated CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to construct a stable CML cell line K562/TCRP1-KO that knocks out the tongue cancer resistance related protein 1 (TCRP1) gene; and through functional tests such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and drug sensitivity, compare the phenotypic differences between K562/TCRP1-KO and control cells (K562/cas9-CTL), and preliminarily explore the possible mechanism of TCRP1 gene involvement in the pathogenesis of CML.Methods:The small guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting TCRP1 was designed at a specific location. After annealing, the oligonucleotide fragments were recombined with the linearized Cas9 expression vector, and the lentivirus packaging system was transfected into 293T cells. The purified virus was collected and infected with K562 cells. Positive polyclons were screened for puromycin pressure, and monoclonal K562/TCRP1-KO was further screened by limited dilution method. Stable cell lines were successfully knocked out by sanger sequencing and Western blot detection; Simultaneously, K562 cells transfected with lentiCRISPR vector were constructed as control cell lines (K562/cas9-CTL); Using cell counting method, cell counting kit 8 (CCK8) method, imatinib (IM) gradient dilution method, and flow cytometry cell proliferation, drug sensitivity, and apoptosis analysis were performed on K562/TCRP1-KO and K562/cas9-CTL, respectively.Results:The sgRNA-Cas9 recombinant plasmid vector for TCRP1 knockout was successfully constructed, and after transfection into 293T cells, TCRP1 knockout monoclonal cell lines were successfully screened using limited dilution method. Compared with K562/cas9-CTL cells, the proliferation ability of K562/TCRP1-KO cells was significantly reduced, IM drug sensitivity was significantly enhanced, and the process of cell apoptosis was significantly accelerated (all P<0.05). Conclusions:A CML cell line with TCRP1 knockout was successfully constructed using CRISPR/Cas9. TCRP1 may act as a cancer related gene to affect the proliferation, IM resistance, and apoptosis process of CML cells.

Endogenous pigment epithelium derived factor (PEDF) shows great potential as a drug target for the treatment of diabetes retinopathy (DR) due to its anti-angiogenesis, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and neurotrophic effects. PEDF plays a biological role by combining with receptor proteins on cell membrane surface and regulating a variety of signaling pathways. Low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 6 plays a role in inhibiting oxidative stress reaction, inflammatory reaction, and neovascularization of DR. Adipose triglyceride lipase, laminin receptor, plexin domain containing 1 (PLXDC) 1, PLXDC2 and F 1-adenosine triphosphate synthase have the effect of promoting endothelial cell apoptosis, among which PLXDC1 also has neuroprotective effect. By clarifying the receptor that PEDF acts on, exploring the affinity between the receptor and PEDF, the difference in the expression level of each receptor in the process of disease, and the specific function that PEDF plays after binding with specific receptors, we can develop fusion protein drugs for the active domain of high affinity of receptors, have a clearer understanding of the pathogenesis of DR, and take PEDF or PEDF receptor as the target to consolidate the theoretical basis for the development of new therapeutic drugs and strategies for DR.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of bupivacaine pamoate for sciatic nerve block in rats.Methods:Forty-eight SPF healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 300-400 g, were divided into 6 groups using a random number table method: bupivacaine pamoate vehicle group (group VE), bupivacaine HCl group (group BH), liposomal bupivacaine group (group BL), low-dose bupivacaine pamoate group (group HL), moderate-dose bupivacaine pamoate group (group HM) and high-dose bupivacaine pamoate group (group HH), with 8 animals in each group.In VE, BH, BL, HL, HM and HH groups, bupivacaine pamoate vehicle 0.4 ml, bupivacaine HCl solution 0.4 ml, liposomal bupivacaine suspension 0.4 ml, and 1, 3 and 10 mg/ml bupivacaine pamoate suspension 0.4 ml were injected around the left sciatic nerve, respectively.The thermal paw withdrawal latency were measured before administration (T 0) and at 0.5, 1.5, 3, 5, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48 h after injection (T 1-9). The percentage of maximum possible effect (MPE) of thermal paw withdrawal latency was calculated, and motor function score was simultaneously performed to evaluate the efficacy of sensory and motor block.Five and three rats in each group were sacrificed at 2 and 7 days after administration (T 9, 10), respectively, and the sciatic nerve at the injection site and the surrounding muscle tissues were harvested for microscopic examination (with a light microscope) after Luxol fast blue and HE staining.Nerve damage and inflammatory responses were assessed and scored to evaluate neurotoxicity. Results:Compared with group VE, the MPE was significantly increased at T 1-4 in group HL, at T 1-8 in group HM and at T 1-8 in group HH, the motor function scores were decreased at T 1-4 in group HL, at T 1-5 in group HM and at T 1-7 in group HH ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in inflammatory response scores for the sciatic nerve and surrounding muscles at each time point in HL, HM and HH groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group BH, the MPE was significantly increased at T 3-8, motor function scores were decreased at T 3-5, and inflammatory response scores for the muscles around the sciatic nerve were decreased at T 9 in group HM ( P<0.05). Compared with group BL, the MPE was significantly increased at T 3-7, motor function scores were decreased at T 4, 5, and inflammatory response scores for the sciatic nerve and surrounding muscles were decreased at T 9 in group HM ( P<0.05). The nerve damage score was 0 in the six groups. Conclusion:Bupivacaine pamoate can block the sciatic nerve of rats, the duration of block is prolonged with the increase in the concentration, and the duration of motor block is not longer than that of sensory block; compared with the same concentration and equal volume of bupivacaine HCl and liposomal bupivacaine, bupivacaine pamoate produces longer duration of sciatic nerve block and less neurotoxicity.

Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2021;39(1):7-12
Objective:To investigate the rat retinal DNA damage induced by acute hypobaric hypoxia and the protective effect of Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound on it. Methods:Seventy-two healthy clean grade male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into normal oxygen control group, hypoxic model group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group by computer random number distribution, with 24 rats in each group.The rats in the normal oxygen control group were fed in normal condition, while the rats in the hypoxic model group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group were fed in a hypobaric oxygen chamber, which simulated an altitude of 5 kilometers, and the rats were administered intragastrically with Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound (0.1 g/kg) or the same volume of normal saline once a day according to grouping.Retinal tissue was obtained on the 7th day of continuous administration of drugs after the rats were sacrificed by euthanasia.Histopathological staining was performed to observe the pathological morphology of retina in each group.Immunohistochemistry was used to identify the expressions of p53 and histone family 2A variant ( γH2AX). Real time-PCR was used to determine the relative expression levels of 8-oxoguanine nucleoside triphosphatase (MTH1) and 8-hydroxyguanine glycolsylase (OGG1) mRNA.The use and care of the animals followed Regulations of the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission. Results:The retina of hypoxic model group was thicker than that of the normal oxygen control group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group, especially the nerve fiber layer and the ganglion cell layer.The positive staining intensities of p53 and γH2AX were stronger in the retinas of the hypoxic model group than those in the the normal oxygen control group and Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group.The relative expression levels of MTH1 and OGG1 mRNA in the hypoxic model group were 0.573±0.081 and 0.772±0.136, which were significantly lower than 0.846±0.160 and 1.013±0.168 in the normal oxygen control group, respectively (both at P<0.05). The relative expression level of MTH1 mRNA was 0.748±0.114 in the Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group, significantly higher than that in the hypoxic model group ( P<0.05). No significant difference was detected in OGG1 mRNA expression level between the Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound gavage group and the hypoxic model group ( P=0.743). Conclusions:The intervention of Radix Astragali seu Hedysari compound plays a protective role in hypobaric hypoxia-induced retinal DNA damage through modulating the expression of p53, γH2AX, OGG1 and MTH1.

Objective:To evaluate the prognosis and determine the failure patterns after radiotherapy for low-risk early-stage patients with extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal-type (ENKTCL).Methods:A total of 557 patients from 2000—2015 with low-risk early-stage ENKTCL who received radiotherapy (RT) with or without chemotherapy (CT) from China Lymphoma Collaborative Group were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, 427 patients received combined modality therapy, whereas 130 patients received RT alone. Survivals were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method and compared with Log-rank test. Overall survival (OS) was compared with age and sex-matched general Chinese population using expected survival and standardized mortality ratio (SMR). Cox stepwise regression model was used for multivariate analysis.Results:The 5-year OS and progression-free survival (PFS) were 87.2% and 77.2%. The SMR was 3.59 ( P<0.001) at 1 year after treatment, whereas it was 1.50 at 4 years after treatment, without significant difference between ENKTCL group and country-matched general population ( P=0.146). Compared with RT alone, CMT did not result in significantly superior 5-year OS (87.0% vs 87.4%, P=0.961) or PFS (76.1% vs 80.7%, P=0.129). Local failure (11.5%, 64/557) and distant failure (10.8%, 60/557) were the main failure modes, while regional failure was rare (2.9%, 16/557). The 5-year locoregional control rate (LRC) was 87.2% for the whole group, with 89.5% for ≥50 Gy versus 73.7% for <50 Gy ( P<0.001). Radiotherapy dose was an independent factor affecting LRC( P<0.05). Conclusions:Radiotherapy achieves a favorable prognosis in patients with low-risk early-stage ENKTCL. The incidence of either locoregional or distant failure is low. Radiation dose still is an important prognostic factor for LRC.
