ABSTRACT
Objective@#To detect the expression level of Galectin-3 in the ocular Venous Malformation (VM) tissue, and explore its associations with the occurrence and development of ocular VM.@*Methods@#12 fresh ocular VM tissue samples and 12 simplex great saphenous vein varices tissue samples were collected. The mRNA and protein expression levels of Galectin-3 gene were detected by RT-PCR and Western Blot.@*Results@#The relative mRNA and protein levels of Galectin-3 in VM and control group were 5.26×10-3±8.78×10-4, 4.89×10-4±5.37×10-5 and 0.861±0.394, 0.223±0.206, respectively; Galectin-3 expressions in both mRNA and protein levels in ocular VM tissue were obviously higher than those in control group (P<0.05), and an increasing trend was accompanied with aggravating pathological changes in both degree and range of ocular VM.@*Conclusions@#Galectin-3 is highly expressed in ocular VM tissue in both mRNA and protein levels, which may be closely related to ocular VM development and prognosis, and can be used to determine the degree of local invasion of ocular VM. The pathogenesis of ocular VM may be related to Galectin-3, which can be further investigated through gene chip techniques.
