简介:目的:探讨雷珠单抗(ranibizumab)治疗特发性脉络膜新生血管(idiopathicchoroidalneovascularization,ICNV)的有效性,分析在光学相干断层扫描(opticalcoherencetomography,OCT)下不同形态表现的特发性脉络膜新生血管(Ⅰ型和Ⅱ型)的疗效差异,进一步为雷珠单抗在治疗脉络膜新生血管的有效性提供±据,指导临床治疗。方法:对我院2013-10/2014-06的31例(Ⅰ型9例,Ⅱ型22例)诊断为"ICNV冶并接受玻璃体腔注射雷珠单抗的患者资料进行回顾性分析,比较分析最佳矫正视力(best-correctedvisualacuity,BCVA)和OCT测量病灶处视网膜最大厚度的变化趋势有无不同。结果:患者31例(其中Ⅰ型9例,Ⅱ型22例)经统计学分析,在术前与术后1,3moBCVA和病灶视网膜最大厚度的比较具有统计学意义,不同ICNV类型患者治疗前后的最佳矫正视力及病灶处视网膜最大厚度的变化趋势的差异无统计学意义,说明雷珠单抗玻璃体腔注射对于治疗特发性脉络膜新生血管疗效肯定,对于Ⅰ型和Ⅱ型ICNV的临床治疗效果不具显著性差异。结论:玻璃体腔注射雷珠单抗治疗特发性脉络膜新生血管疗效肯定,对于Ⅰ型和Ⅱ型ICNV本组研究中尚未发现存在疗效差异。其安全性和远期并发症需进一步研究证实。

简介:目的研究转录因子扭曲基因(Twist)在喉鳞癌(LSCC)中的表达及其通过对上皮型钙黏附蛋白(E-cadherin)、神经型钙黏附蛋白(N-cadherin)的作用在判断肿瘤的生物学行为方面的意义。方法采用免疫组织化学SP法及反转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)方法检测49例喉鳞癌及20例癌旁组织中Twist、E-cadherin和N-cadherin基因的表达情况。结果Twist在喉癌组织中的阳性表达率(61.22%)明显高于癌旁组织(25%)(P〈0.01);Twist在喉癌组织中的mRNA相对表达量(0.93±0.39)明显高于癌旁组织(0.57±0.24)(P〈0.01);Twist在喉癌中蛋白及mRNA表达均与淋巴结转移、临床分期相关,而与肿瘤病理学分级、临床分型及年龄无关。在mRNA及蛋白水平,Twist与E-cadherin,N-cadherin与E-cadherin的表达均呈负相关;Twist与N-cadherin均呈正相关。结论Twist在喉鳞癌中过度表达,可能通过分别上调N-cadherin和下调E-cadherin的表达,进而在喉鳞癌的浸润、转移过程中发挥重要作用。
简介:近年来国外在开角型青光眼遗传学方面的研究已取得显著进展,已确定了许多染色体位点与开角型青光眼发病有关,并且进行了相关基因的定位与克隆,以及其突变位点的分析,本文就开角型青光眼相关基因的研究进行综述.
