RESUMO
Objective To detect the express of the pulmonary fibrosis factor CTGF,TGF-β1 and the senescence correlated β-Gal in the primary pulmonary bulla,and investigate the correlation of the pulmonary fibrosis factor,cell senescence and the development of the primary pulmonary bulla.Methods The expression of CTGF,TGF-β1 and β-Gal protein in the tissue of normal lung tissues and lung bullae were tested.The cell image extracted with the digital camera system was entered into the Image-pro Plus 6.0 morphology Image analysis system and analyzed with Semi-quantitative way.Results The expression level of TGF-β1 and CTGF in primary pulmonary bulla organization was obviously higher than that of normal lung tissue.There was a statistically significant difference(P ＜ 0.05).CTGF and TGF-β1 expression level had a significant correlation (r =0.965,P ＜ 0.01).β-Gal expression level of primary pulmonary bullae had no obvious difference with normal lung tissue.Conclusion CTGF and TGF-β1 may play an important role in the formation of primary pulmonary bulla.Both play a synergistic role in the formation of primary pulmonary bulla.Cell senescence is not relevanted with the formation of primary pulmonary bulla.
