After laser exposure, the culture media were sampled at 0, 24, 72 and 144 hours for TIMP-1 concentration produced by the RPE cells. The levels of TIMP-1 in the cells treated with different laser energy levels were compared with a control group not exposed to laser application.Immunocytochemistry for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was performed to detect any adverse effects on the RPE cells caused by laser exposure.Results: Immediately after laser exposure, the concentration of TIMP- 1 was not detectable. At 24 hours after laser exposure, the concentration of TIMP-1 increased significantly in RPE cells treated with 120mW and 240mW at 24 hours (P=0.006 and P=0.001respectively) compared with control cells. At 72 hours after treatment, RPE cells treated at 120mW, 240mW and 360mW demonstrated significantly increase in TIMP-1production compared with control (P=0.003, P < 0.001 and P < 0.001, respectively).No significant reduction in cell viability was observed following laser application as detected by PCNA expression.Conclusions: Our results demonstrated that early TIMP-1 production by RPE cells in cell cultures was enhanced following laser exposure.展开更多

文摘急性肾损伤(acute kidney injury,AKI)是一种常见的术后并发症,尚无确切的生物标志物。金属蛋白酶2组织抑制剂(tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2,TIMP-2)和胰岛素样生长因子结合蛋7(insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7,IGFBP7)属于细胞周期阻滞生物标志物。近年众多临床研究发现尿液中TIMP-2联合IGFBP7的含量可较好地预测中重度AKI。2014年美国食品和药物管理局批准上市了"NephroCheck?"(尿[TIMP-2]×[IGFBP7]的检测)。本文将综述尿液中细胞周期阻滞生物标志物[TIMP-2]×[IGFBP7]的含量对手术后AKI风险预测的研究。
