简介:目的本研究针对初发性翼状胬肉局部使用丝裂霉素C(MMC)一次性注射治疗,用免疫组织化学方法对经MMC治疗的翼状胬肉标本中血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)和转化生长因子(TGF-β_1)的表达进行分析研究,并与未使用MMC治疗者的翼状胬肉标本作对比。观察局部注射MMC对翼状胬肉组织中VEGF和TGF-β_1的表达的影响。方法需手术者共19例20眼,随机分为二组:A组直接切除胬肉,留标本作免疫组织化学检查;B组于翼状胬肉颈部进针,向胬肉组织内局部注射MMC,0.1~0.2ml(0.4mg/ml),3周至10周后手术切除胬肉,留标本作免疫组织化学检查。分别对A、B二组标本中VEGF和TGF-β_1的表达进行分析研究。结果A组VEGF、TGF-β_1的表达较B组高,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。结论丝裂霉素C翼状胬肉局部注射可以抑制静止期翼状胬肉中VEGF、TGF-β_1因子的表达。MMC在低浓度、低剂量下使用未出现眼部严重并发症。
简介:目的:探讨线粒体膜电位(△ψm)、Caspase3在As2O3诱导ACC-2细胞凋亡中的作用。方法:进行ACC-2细胞培养,将As2O3建立不同药物浓度梯度(0,1.0,2.0,4.0,8.0μmol/L)分别作用于ACC-2细胞,用Rh123染色,流式细胞仪检测8.0μmol/LAs2O3作用前、后(24h),ACC-2细胞的线粒体膜电位(△ψm)变化;用多功能酶标仪进行Caspase3活性检测。结果:空白对照组ACC-2细胞内Rh123荧光强度最强,8.0μmol/LAs2O3处理组ACC-2细胞内Rh123荧光强度减弱,其差异有显著性(P〈0.05);随着As2O3药物浓度的增高(0,1,2,4,8μmol/L),ACC-2细胞的Caspase3酶活力单位逐渐增加。结论:As2O3作用于ACC-2细胞,可通过降低线粒体膜电位从而引起细胞凋亡。随着As2O3药物浓度的增高,ACC-2细胞的Caspase3酶活力单位逐渐增加,Caspase3被激活,细胞可发生不可逆转的凋亡过程。
简介:目的:研究增殖细胞核抗原(proliferatingcellnuclearanti-gen,PCNA)和胰岛素样生长因子Ⅱ(insulin-likegrowthfactor-Ⅱ,IGF-Ⅱ)在翼状胬肉中表达的关系。方法:应用免疫组织化学SABC法检测40例原发性翼状胬肉组织标本,10例正常结膜组织标本中PCNA和IGF-Ⅱ蛋白的表达情况。结果:翼状胬肉组中PCNA,IGF-Ⅱ表达均高于正常结膜组(P〈0.01),IGF-Ⅱ与PCNA蛋白表达之间的相关系数为0.731(P〈0.01)。结论:翼状胬肉为一种具有肿瘤潜能的增生性眼表疾病。IGF-Ⅱ通过促进细胞增殖参与了翼状胬肉的发生、发展。
简介:目的:针对较大翼状胬肉,采用胬肉切除、角膜缘干细胞移植联合全角膜羊膜覆盖术,或胬肉切除和角膜缘干细胞移植术后配戴绷带型角膜接触镜进行治疗,观察两种方法的临床效果。方法:将侵及瞳孔区的较大翼状胬肉40眼随机分成两组,一组行翼状胬肉切除、角膜缘干细胞移植术联合全角膜羊膜覆盖术(羊膜组),另一组行胬肉切除和角膜缘干细胞移植术后配戴绷带型角膜接触镜(绷带镜组),每组各20眼。比较两组患者手术时间,以及术后第l、3d,1、3wk眼部舒适程度和角膜愈合情况与随访复发情况等。结果:平均手术时间:羊膜组为61.4±5.2min,绷带镜组为34.5±2.7min,绷带镜组手术时间明显缩短,两组差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。两组患者的眼部舒适度在术后第Id无明显差异,但在术后第3d和术后lwk,绷带镜组患者的眼部舒适度明显优于羊膜组(P<0.01),至术后3wk时两组间差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。术后3wk时两组患者的角膜愈合率评分分别为0.85±0.18分和1.15±0.18分,两组差异无统计学意义(P=0.25)。羊膜组有1眼胬肉复发。结论:在侵及角膜的较大翼状胬肉治疗中,胬肉切除和角膜缘干细胞移植术后联合全角膜羊膜覆盖或术后配戴绷带型角膜接触镜均有助于缓解眼部不适症状和促进角膜创面修复,使用绷带型角膜接触镜患者更舒适,治疗更便捷。
简介:目的:分析玻璃体腔注射曲安奈德术后继发性青光眼的发生率和危险因素。方法:对连续收治的256例有玻璃体腔注射曲安奈德适应证的各类眼底病患者实施单次玻璃腔注射4mg/0.1mL曲安奈德手术,观察其术后眼压变化情况。主要适应证包括湿性年龄相关性黄斑变性,其它原因如糖尿病性视网膜病变、视网膜中央静脉阻塞、视网膜分支静脉阻塞,视网膜静脉周围炎等引起的黄斑水肿性疾病。结果:256例256眼经至少3mo的追踪观察随访中,56眼发生继发性青光眼,发病率为21.9%。结论:继发性青光眼与年龄、性别、血压、糖尿病、玻璃体腔注药术的不同适应证、术前是否行白内障手术、是否行光动力治疗、是否行玻璃体切除手术等因素没有相关性。注药前青光眼病史的存在和基础眼压高于19mmHg等情况为术后继发性青光眼的显著危险因素。
简介:目的方法结果结论对安徽省两地人群盲和低视力及眼病的流行病学情况进行抽样调查。选择阜阳市颍州区和宣城市绩溪县,采用随机整体抽样方法,对所属居民进行眼部及其他情况的调查。两地的受检人数和受检率分别为3336人(91.40%)和3602人(92.10%),达到抽样调查要求;两地双眼盲、单眼盲、双眼低视力和单眼低视力的患病率分别为1.05%和0.69%、1.71%和1.25%、1.02%和0.97%、0.87%和0.89%;两地盲和低视力的主要原因分别为:白内障、弱视、青光眼和白内障、眼球萎缩/缺如、青光眼;两地主要眼病都为:屈光不正、白内障、翼状胬肉和沙眼;两地的白内障手术率分别为600和278。据不完全资料估计我省盲和低视力的患病率远高于全国平均水平,盲和低视力的高发人群为50岁以上老年人,女性,孤寡,文盲,低收入者,白内障仍是最主要致盲原因,屈光不正/弱视已日益成为影响人民特别是青少年视力的最主要因素,广泛宣传正确用眼方式,推广青少年正确验光配镜方法,提高相关人员验光配镜水平对于有效降低弱视致残率至关重要。
