OBJECTIVE: To determine the influence of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on endothelial cell (EC) proliferation in vitro and its possible mechanisms, and to examine the effect of both TNP-470 and dexamethasone (Dex) on the EC proliferation induced by bFGF. METHODS: Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were cultured and the proliferation of EC was quantified by a colorimetric assay using MTT reagent. The expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) and ki-67 was detected with SABC immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: bFGF stimulated the EC proliferation and enhanced the expression of NF-kappa B and ki-67 in nucleus; TNP-470 and Dex suppressed EC proliferation induced by bFGF, and reduced the expression of NF-kappa B and ki-67 in nucleus. CONCLUSION: The above results indicate that the possible mechanisms of EC proliferation stimulated by bFGF come from that bFGF can activate NF-kappa B to promote the synthesis of DNA and EC mitosis. TNP-470 and Dex inhibited EC proliferation stimulated by bFGF by inhibiting NF-kappa B.
Objective To investigate the inhibitive effect of E2F decoy oligodeoxynucleotides (E2F decoy ODNs) on cultured human retinal pigment epithelial (HRPE) cells.Methods E2F decoy ODNs or scramble decoy ODNs at varied concentrations were put into the HRPE cells mediated by lipofectamineTM2000. The proliferative activity of HRPE was detected by methythiazolyl-terazollium assay, and the competitive combinative activity of E2F decoy ODNs and transcription factor E2F was detected by electrophoresis mobility-shift assay. Results The proliferation of HRPE was inhibited markedly by E2F decoy ODNs at the concentration of 0.2 μmol/L (P=0.002) in a dose-dependent manner but not by scrambled decoy. The results of electrophoresis mobility-shift assay showed that the combinative activity of transcription factor E2F was abolished completely by E2F decoy ODNs. Conclusions E2F decoy ODNs may sequence-specifically inhibit the combinative activity of transcripti on factor E2F,and inhibit the proliferation of HRPE cells.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2004,20:182-185)
Objective To investigate the effects of asiaticoside onthe proliferation and the Smad signal pathway of the hypertrophic scar fibroblasts.Methods The hypertrophic scar fibroblasts were cultured with tissue culture method. The expressions of Smad2 and Smad7 mRNA after asiaticoside treatment were determined by reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction 48 hours later. Thecell cycle, the cell proliferation, the cell apoptosis and the expression of phosphorylated Smad2 and Smad7 with(experimental group) or without(control group) asiaticoside were detected with flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry and Western blot. Results Asiaticoside inhibited the hypertrophic scar fibroblasts from phase S to phase M. The Smad7 content and the expression of Smad7 mRNA were (1.33±1.26)% and (50.80±22.40)% in experimental group, and (9.15±3.36)% and (32.18±17.84)% in control group; there were significant differences between two groups (P<0.05). While the content and the mRNA expression of Smad2 had no significant difference between two groups. Conclusion Asiaticoside inhibits the scar formation through Smad signal pathway.

Objective To assess the efficacy of finasteride in treating perioperative bleeding in patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). Methods We searched MEDLINE (1966 to 2005), EMBase (1984 to 2004), CBM (1980 to 2005), The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2005) and relevant journals to identify cl inical trials involving finasteride in patients undergoing TURP. We also checked the references in the reports of each included trial. The qual ity of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was assessed according to the methods recommended by The Cochrane Collaboration, and the qual ity of non-RCTs was assessed based on the methods recommended by Jiang-ping Liu, Stroup and Hailey. Two reviewers extracted data independently and data analyses were conducted with The Cochrane Collaboration’ s RevMan 4.2. Result We included 4 RCTs and 1 non-RCT. The qual ity of 3 RCTs was graded C and the other one was graded B. The quality of the non-RCT was relatively high. Meta-analyses showed that with comparable age, international prostate symptom score, prostate specific antigen, preoperative volume of prostate and excision volume between the two groups (Pgt;0.05), the perioperative bleeding volume (WMD –85.44, 95%CI –117.31 to –53.58), the bleeding volume per gram of resected prostate tissue (WMD –3.5, 95%CI –6.34 to –0.58) and hemoglobin reduction (WMD –1.61, 95%CI –1.96 to –1.26) of the finasteride group were significantly smaller than those of the control group. Conclusion The evidence currently available indicates that preoperative use of finasteride may reduce bleeding in patients undergoing TURP.

Methods Between April 2008 and April 2009, Gyrus TUEVRP was performed on 124 patients with obstructive BPH whose mean prostatic weight was (62.3±21.7) g. The hyperplasia prostate glands were retrogradely dissected and enucleated along surgical capsule to the bladder neck by sharp and blunt dissection combination of the resectoscope tip or loop. Simultaneously, the blood supply of the gland was clamped. The changes of such indexes as operating time, perioperative blood loss, collected prostatic specimen weight, postoperative catheterization time, hospitalization time, prostatic specific antigen (PSA), post voiding residual volume (PVR), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), international prostatic symptom score (IPSS), and quality of life (QOL) were assessed. Results All surgeries were successfully carried out with an average operation time of (48.1±19.4) minutes ranged from 25 to 175 minutes. The mean collected prostatic specimen weight was (57.6±19.6) g ranged from 20.2 to 125.7 g. The blood loss was ranged from 45 to 350 ml, averaging at (86.2±20.7) mL during the operation. Blood transfusion was needed in only one case. Blood loss and operation time were increased and prolonged in accordance with the increase of prostatic volume and weight. The postoperative catheterization time was ranged from 2 to 5 days, averaging at 3.1±1.6. The mean hospitalization time was (5.8±1.4) days ranged from 5 to 8 days. All patients were followed up for 6 to 18 months. Qmax, PVR, IPSS and QOL-score six months after operation were significantly improved compared with those before operation (Plt;0.05). There were three cases of external urethral stricture, and they were treated with urethral dilatation successfully. Two cases of urinary incontinence recovered 1 and 6 months later, respectively, by traditional treatment. There were no cases of permanent urinary incontinence, reoperation for hemostasis, operative death, or transurethral resection syndrome. Conclusion TUEVRP is safe and clinically efficacious in the treatment of BPH, and is worthy of clinical promotion.
