The patients were classified as first-line therapy to either early trabeculectomy(initial trabeculectomy-Group 1) or long term medical therapy followed by trabeculectomy(primary trabeculectomy-Group 2). Trabeculectomy was performed with large-area MMC application. Intraocular pressure(IOP) values,visual acuities,mean deviations,morphology and function of the blebs,necessity for anti-glaucomatous medications and surgical complications were reported. ·RESULTS: There were 20 eyes of 18 patients in Group 1 and 37 eyes of 37 patients in Group 2. The mean preoperative IOPs in Groups 1 and 2 were 40.2±10.0mmHg(27-68mmHg) and 29.0±4.4mmHg(21-41mmHg),respectively(P=0.001). Average preoperative mean deviations(MD) in Groups 1 and 2 were 17.4±2.8dB(13.3-23dB) and 17.9± 2.4dB(13.7-23.2dB),respectively(P=0.441). Postoperative IOPs significantly decreased and were comparable in both Groups. The mean number of medications was significantly higher in Group 2(P =0.005). No cystic bleb formation was observed in Group 1,whereas 4 patients from Group 2(10.8%) developed cystic bleb(P =0.040). No visually devastating complication has occurred in both Groups. ·CONCLUSION: Initial trabeculectomy with large areaMMC application might be applied in patients with advanced glaucoma with low complication rates. Long-term topically applied anti-glaucomatous medications seem to increase the risk of cystic bleb formation.展开更多
丝裂霉素C是一种广谱抗肿瘤抗生素,对多种癌症有抗癌作用,其作用原理可使细胞的DNA发生链间交联,引起DNA双链断裂,阻碍DNA的复制,从而抑制肿瘤细胞分裂。临床上主要用于胃癌、肠癌、肝癌及胰腺癌等消化道癌方面的治疗。本文研究丝裂霉素...丝裂霉素C是一种广谱抗肿瘤抗生素,对多种癌症有抗癌作用,其作用原理可使细胞的DNA发生链间交联,引起DNA双链断裂,阻碍DNA的复制,从而抑制肿瘤细胞分裂。临床上主要用于胃癌、肠癌、肝癌及胰腺癌等消化道癌方面的治疗。本文研究丝裂霉素C对转染人BLM解旋酶基因(shRNA载体)前后前列腺癌PC3细胞活性的影响。使用前期成功构建的干扰载体转染PC3细胞,在转染48 h后加药,通过荧光定量PCR、MTT法、Transwell小室实验、细胞划痕实验、流式细胞术,分别检测加药12、24、36 h BLM基因的表达量、PC3细胞增殖能力、侵袭能力、迁移能力及凋亡情况的变化。结果显示,敲减BLM基因表达后的PC3细胞相对于正常PC3细胞其增殖能力、侵袭能力和迁移能力能显著被丝裂霉素C抑制,且丝裂霉素C能显著促进其细胞的凋亡,说明BLM基因低表达的前列腺癌细胞对丝裂霉素C更敏感。研究结果为丝裂霉素C在前列腺癌的临床治疗上奠定了理论基础。展开更多
