ABSTRACT

@#AIM: To evaluate the expression level of transforming growth factor β2(TGF-β2)in the aqueous humor and trabecular tissue of patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma(PACG)of Han and Kazakh ethnic groups and the formation of filter bleb after trabeculectomy.<p>METHODS: Prospective research. Between July 2018 to April 2019, 46 PAGG patients(49 eyes)underwent trabeculectomy in our hospital, including 25 Han nationality(26 eyes)and 21 Kazak nationality(23 eyes). Aqueous humor and trabecular tissue were obtained through trabeculectomy. ELISA method was used to detect the content of total aqueous TGF-β2(tTGF-β2)and activated TGF-β2(aTGF-β2). And the expression of TGF-β2 in trabecular tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence.<p>RESULTS:Immunohistochemical staining and immunofluorescence staining showed that the expression of TGF-β2 in the trabecular meshwork of Han patients was significantly higher than that of Kazakh patients. ELISA quantitative analysis showed that the aTGF-β2 content of Han and Kazak patients were 172.015±79.367pg/mL and 83.436±41.743pg/mL, respectively, the difference was statistically significant(<i>t</i>=4.794, <i>P</i><0.001). In patients ≥70 years old, the content of tTGF-β2 in the aqueous humor of patients of the two nationalities was 480.124±152.997 and 338.858±72.497pg/mL, respectively, the difference was statistically significant(<i>t</i>=2.421, <i>P</i>=0.026). In the comparison between preoperative and postoperative, there were time differences and interaction effects in intraocular pressure between Han and Kazak patients. At 6mo postoperatively, the formation of type Ⅰ and Ⅱ filter blebs in Han and Kazak patients was different, and the difference was statistically significant(50% <i>vs</i> 78%; χ2=4.841, <i>P</i>=0.028).<p>CONCLUSION: The expression of TGF-β2 in the aqueous humor and trabecular meshwork of patients with PACG in the two ethnic groups is different. The expression of TGF-β2 in the aqueous humor and trabecular meshwork of Kazakh patients is significantly lower, which reduces the promotion of postoperative filtering scar Functional filtration filtration bleb.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To observe the morphologic changes of of filtration blebs after trichostatin A treatment in an experimental glaucoma filtration surgery ( GFS) . METHODS:Subconjunctival injection TSA, mitomycin C ( MMC) and PBS during the filtering surgery in rabbits. The morphologic changes of filtration blebs were evaluated by Krofeld score method postoperatively days 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28. RESULTS: TSA induced filteation bleds were elevated diffusely within 14d and cystic blebs formed 28d, filtration bleb score was significantly higher in TSA group than that in PBS group. CONCLUSION: TSA can keep the aqueous humor outflow by inhibiting scar formation and prolong the existence of the filtration bleb.

ABSTRACT

We studied the efficacy and safety of using topical mitomycin C(MMC) as an adjunct to glaucoma filtration surgery. Trabeculectomy was performed in 23 eyes of 19 patients with poor surgical prognosis. After the preparation of a scleral flap. 0.2mg or 0.4 mg/ml MMC was applied to the exposed tissue for 5 minutes. The wound was then irrigated with 250ml of normal saline. The follow-up period was from 2 to 12 months(mean 7.8 +/- 4.3 months). Preoperative mean intraocular pressure(IOP) was 33.8 +/- 7.1 mmHg, ranged from 25 to 51 mmHg. The mean IOPs after 1, 3, 6 and 12 months were 10.3 +/- 4.4, 12.5 +/- 6.9, 12.4 +/- 6.6 and 12.3 +/- 6.7 mmHg, respectively. Nineteen(82.6%) among 23 eyes were successfully controlled with the IOP below 20 mmHg without any antiglaucomatous therapies, and success rate was 0.747 by Kaplan-Meier method at Postoperative 12 months. There were early postoperative complications of aqueous leaking from conjunctival wound in 3 eyes(13.0%), shallow anterior chamber in 2 eyes, and hyphema in one eye and one eye had long-term hypotony lasting more than 3 months. Although MMC is simple to use and a potent adjunct to glaucoma filtration surgery, more work will be needed to determine the mechanism of action, indications, dosage and optimal exposure time of MMC.

At postoperative 12 months, 74.7% achieved an IOP of less than or equal to 20mmHg without any antiglaucoma medication. There were early postoperative complications of aqueous leaking from conjunctival wounds in 3 eyes (13.0%), shallow anterior chamber in 2 eyes, and hyphema in one eye and one eye had long-term hypotony lasting more than 3 months. Although MMC is simple to use, it is a potent adjunct to glaucoma filtration surgery, more work should follow to determine the mechanism of action, indications, dosage and optimal exposure time of MMC.

ABSTRACT

Sodium hyaluronate can be used during a trabeculectomy to prevent early postoperative hypotony and shallow anterior chamber. To determine its long-term effect on the outcome of filtration surgery, fifteen rabbits underwent a osterior-lip sclerectomy in both eyes. Into their right eyes 0.2ml sodium hyaluronate, and into left eyes 0.2ml balanced salt solution were injected intracamerally. Gross and histopathological differences of bleb were observed. There was no statistically significant difference in longevity of the filtration bleb.
