糖尿病视网膜病变(diabetic retinopathy,DR)是世界范围内劳动年龄人口视力损伤的主要原因。糖尿病前期和DR临床前期患者作为罹患DR的高危人群，在该阶段可发现视网膜神经元形态功能及视网膜微小血管的改变。视网膜及神经纤维层厚度的变化可部分反映视网膜神经元结构改变；色觉、对比敏感度、视野及视觉电生理等变化可反映视网膜神经元功能改变。随着光学相关断层扫描血管成像技术的发展，临床可以检测出DR之前视网膜微血管的改变。此外，许多生物标志物也可以预测和评估DR。由于目前还没有方法可以阻止DR的发生与进展，临床可以通过观察以上视网膜的改变更为及时地发现DR，以降低其患病率，最大限度地减少DR带来的视力损伤。
Diabetes retinopathy (DR) is the main cause of visual impairment in the working population worldwide. Patients with pre-diabetes and pre-clinic diabetic retinopathy are regarded as in high risk group of DR. The changes in morphology and function of renal neurons and retinal micro-vessels can be found in these patients at this stage. The changes of retinal nerve structure can be partly reflected by changes in the thickness of retina and nerve fiber layer. The changes in function of retinal neurons can be reflected by changes in color vision, contrast sensitivity, visual field and visual electrophysiology.With the development of optical coherence tomography angiography, changes in retinal micro-vessels can be observed prior to clinical detection of DR. In addition, many biomarker can also predict and evaluate DR. Since there is no way to prevent the occurrence and progress of DR at present, more attention should be paid in DR by observing the changes inthe retina mentioned above timely, to reduce its incidence and minimize the visual damage caused by DR.
目的：探讨血管生成拟态(vasculogenic mimicry，VM)与翼状胬肉初发型及复发型的相关性。方法：采用血小板-内皮细胞黏附分子/过碘酸雪夫(platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1/periodic acid-schiff，CD31/PAS)免疫组织化学双重染色法检测139例翼状胬肉组织(初发型105例；复发型34例)和10例正常结膜中VM的表达，分析VM与初发型及复发型翼状胬肉的相关性及其与患者性别、年龄等因素的关系。原代培养人翼状胬肉成纤维细胞(human pterygium fibroblasts，HPFs)，免疫细胞化学染色法鉴定，利用三维培养及PAS染色观察初发型和复发型HPFs构成VM管腔个数的差异。结果：10例正常结膜均未见VM结构，初发型翼状胬肉VM阳性率43.81%，复发型翼状胬肉VM阳性率82.35%，差异具有统计学意义(P<0.001)。相关性分析显示VM与复发型翼状胬肉呈显著正相关(r=0.332)。不同性别、年龄及病程的翼状胬肉患者VM的表达差异均无统计学意义(均P>0.05)。原代培养的HPFs Vimentin表达阳性，符合成纤维细胞特性。细胞三维培养及PAS染色结果提示HPFs具有构建体外VM模型的能力，且复发型HPFs构成的VM管腔数明显高于初发型，差异具有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论：翼状胬肉组织中存在VM结构，可作为其血供途径之一。VM与翼状胬肉的复发具有密切关系。
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation of vasculogenic mimicry in the primary and recurrent pterygium. Methods: Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1/periodic acid-schiff (CD31/PAS)immunohistochemical double staining method was adopted to detect the expression of VM in 139 cases of pterygium (105 cases of primary pterygium and 34 cases of recurrent pterygium)and 10 cases of normal conjunctival tissues. The correlation between VM and primary pterygium, recurrent pterygium and the factors such as gender and age of patients were analyzed. Human pterygium fibroblasts (HPFs) were primary cultured and identified by immunocytochemical staining. The differences in the number of VM channels between primary HPFs and recurrent HPFs were observed by three-dimensional culture and PAS staining. Results: There was no VM structure in 10 normal conjunctiva and the positive rate of VM was 43.81% in primary pterygium and 82.35% in recurrent pterygium with a significantly difference (P<0.001). Correlation analysis showed a significant positive correlation between VM and recurrent pterygium (r=0.332). There was no significant difference in the expression of VM in pterygium patients with different sex, age and course (all P>0.05). Vimentin was positive in the primary cultured cells, which was consistent with the characteristics of fibroblasts. The results of three-dimensional culture and PAS staining indicated that HPFs had the ability to construct VM model in vitro, and the number of VM channels constituted by recurrent HPFs was significantly higher than that by primary HPFs, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusion: VM exists in pterygium tissues, and it can be used as one of the blood supply routes, which is closely related to the recurrence of pterygium.
白内障是世界范围内失明的主要原因。正常晶状体是富有弹性的形似双凸透镜的透明体，是机体内蛋白质含量最高的组织，由晶状体囊膜、晶状体上皮细胞、晶状体纤维和悬韧带构成。白内障为晶状体透明度下降，表现为晶状体混浊。近年来随着分子生物学、表观遗传学、免疫学、有机化学等学科快速发展，国内外学者对白内障也进行了大量分子水平的研究，探讨了白内障发生发展相关分子机制，为未来基因治疗和靶向药物等治疗白内障提供了理论基础。对白内障分子病理改变的了解，是白内障精准诊治的基础。
Cataract is the main cause of blindness worldwide. The normal crystalline lens is a transparent biconvex disc,with highest protein content in all human tissues. The lens is composed of capsule, lens epithelial cells, lens fiber and zonular ligment. Cataract is a decrease in the transparency of the lens, which is characterized by opacity. In recent years, with the rapid development of molecular biology, epigenetics, immunology and organic chemistry,researchers have conducted a large number of studies on the molecular basis of genetic or targeted therapy of cataract. It is important to know the molecular pathology of cataract, which is the basis of precise diagnosis and treatment of cataract.
