简介:目的分析常年性变应性鼻炎的狗、猫上皮变应原皮肤点刺试验的阳性结果,对其他气传变应原的反应性,并进一步探讨环境接触与其相关性。方法总结1022例常年性变应性鼻炎患者采用阿罗格叶7种气传变应原标准化试液进行的皮肤点刺试验;分析狗、猫上皮变应原的皮试结果及合并其他气传变应原阳性的比例;并根据是否有环境接触分类,比较各组在阳性率分布上的差异。结果常年性变应性鼻炎中狗上皮变应原皮试阳性占13.80%,猫上皮阳性占6.95%;且98%以上合并其他气传变应原阳性,尤以合并粉尘螨、屋尘螨阳性居多。其中21.93%和26.32%环境接触狗/猫的变应性鼻炎相应狗/猫上皮变应原皮试阳性;无环境接触组的阳性率分别为12.78%和6.58%,差异均有统计学意义(P〈0.01)。结论常年性变应性鼻炎的狗上皮及猫上皮的阳性率位居前列,其中绝大多数合并其他气传变应原阳性。鉴于环境接触对狗、猫上皮过敏的高危险性,变应性鼻炎患者应该尽可能地避免饲养、接触宠物。

简介:目的:探讨褪黑素对过氧化氢诱导晶状体上皮细胞氧化损伤的保护作用。方法:晶状体上皮细胞传代培养后,分别加入不同浓度褪黑素预处理12h后,加入100μmol/LH2O2继续孵育24h,MTT比色法检测褪黑素对H2O2诱导的晶状体上皮细胞活力的影响,流式细胞仪检测细胞凋亡率,比色法检测凋亡相关因子Caspase-3及Caspase-9的活性。结果:MTT结果显示褪黑素对晶状体上皮细胞活性无影响,该药物可以抑制过氧化氢诱导的细胞活性的下降,流式细胞计数结果显示褪黑素可以抑制过氧化氢诱导的细胞凋亡,此外,褪黑素还可以减少过氧化氢所致晶状体上皮细胞内Caspase-3及Caspase-9的活性,并且,伴随褪黑素作用时间的延长其活性呈下降趋势。结论:褪黑素可以明显抑制过氧化氢诱导的晶状体上皮细胞的凋亡,从而为寻求有效的防治白内障药物提供可靠的实验依据。
