简介:目的:观察结膜松弛症松弛结膜组织和泪液中黏蛋白的表达变化,探讨结膜松弛症的发病机制。方法:收集结膜松弛症组38例38眼和正常对照组36例36眼的结膜组织和泪液标本,分别行免疫组织化学染色检测结膜组织中黏蛋白(MUC2、MUC4、MUC5AC、MUC16)表达情况,ELISA检测泪液中黏蛋白(MUC2、MUC4、MUC5AC、MUC16)A值,结果行统计学分析,比较两组之间的差异。结果:结膜松弛症组的结膜上皮细胞中MUC2、MUC4与正常对照组表达无统计学差异(P=0.315、0.156);结膜松弛症组的结膜上皮细胞中MUC5AC、MUC16阳性表达细胞较正常对照组明显减少,差异有统计学意义(P=0.016、〈0.01)。结膜松弛症组泪液中MUC2的A值与正常对照组无统计学差异(P=0.651),结膜松弛症组中MUC4、MUC5AC的A值较正常对照组明显降低,有显著的统计学差异(均P〈0.01),结膜松弛症组中MUC16的A值较正常对照组下降,差异有统计学意义(P=0.022)。结论:结膜松弛症患者结膜组织和泪液中MUC5AC和MUC16均下降,对其进一步研究可能揭示结膜松弛症的发病机制。
简介:目的通过检测Fas和FasL在鼻息肉中的表达,研究细胞凋亡和Fas/FasL系统在鼻息肉发病机制中的作用.方法用免疫组化方法检测Fas和FasL在35例鼻息肉和17例正常下鼻甲组织中的表达.对Fas和FasL阳性细胞的类型、分布特点进行分析.结果1.Fas和FasL在鼻息肉组织中的表达均较正常下鼻甲组织明显增强,差异有显著性.2.Fas在上皮细胞和间质细胞中都有阳性表达,主要表达于息肉表面的上皮细胞和间质内的炎性细胞中.结论1.Fas/FasL系统介导的凋亡在鼻息肉的发病机制中有重要作用,可能是鼻息肉长期保持良性增生的重要因素.2.FasL在鼻息肉上皮细胞中的高表达与上皮细胞的过度增生及Fas/FasL系统的免疫监视作用有关.
