Cystoid macular edema(CME) is the abnormal collection of intraretinal fluid in the macular region, especially in the inner nuclear and outer plexiform layers. CME leads to severe visual impairment in patients with various retinal diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vascular occlusion, choroidal neovascularization, and uveitis. Although various retinal conditions lead to CME, a shared pathogenesis of CME is involved in these diseases. Accordingly, the pathogenesis of CME based on vasogenic mechanisms is first discussed in this review, including vascular hyperpermeability, leukostasis, and inflammation. We then describe cytotoxic mechanisms based on retinal Müller cell dysfunction. This comprehensive review will provide an understanding of the pathogenesis of CME for potential therapeutic strategies.

Our previous study evaluated the in vitro and in vivo antioxidant activities of sulfated polysaccharides from a Celluclastassistedextract of Hizikia fusiforme (HFPS). The results indicate that HFPS possesses potent antioxidant activity and suggestthe potential use of HFPS to combat photoaging. In this study, we investigated the ultraviolet (UV) protective effect of HFPSin vitro in keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) and in vivo in zebrafish. The results indicate that HFPS significantly reduced thelevel of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and improved the viability of UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells. In addition,HFPS remarkably decreased apoptosis formation in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells in a dose-dependent manner. The in vivotest results also demonstrate that HFPS significantly reduced intracellular ROS levels, cell death, NO production, and lipidperoxidation levels in UVB-irradiated zebrafish in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that HFPS possessesstrong in vitro and in vivo UV-protective effects, making it a potential ingredient in the cosmeceutical industry.

A large body of literature suggests that bone metabolism is susceptible to the ill effects of reactive species that accumulate in the body and cause cellular dysfunction. One of the body＇s front lines in defense against such damage is the transcription factor, Nrf2. This transcription factor regulates a plethora of antioxidant and cellular defense pathways to protect cells from such damage. Despite the breadth of knowledge of both the function of Nrf2 and the effects of reactive species in bone metabolism, the direct role of Nrf2 in skeletal biology has yet to be thoroughly examined. Thus, in the current study, we have examined the role of Nrf2 in postnatal bone metabolism in mice. Mice lacking Nrf2 （Nrf2-/-） exhibited a marked deficit in postnatal bone acquisition, which was most severe at 3 weeks of age when osteoblast numbers were 12-fold less than observed in control animals. While primary osteoblasts from Nrf2-/- mice functioned normally in vitro, the colony forming capacity of bone marrow stromal cells （BMSCs） from these mice was significantly reduced compared to controls. This defect could be rescued through treatment with the radical scavenger N-acetyl cysteine （NAC）, suggesting that increased reactive species stress might impair early osteoblastogenesis in BMSCs and lead to the failure of bone acquisition observed in Nrf2-/- animals. Taken together, these studies suggest Nrf2 represents a key pathway in regulating bone metabolism, which may provide future therapeutic targets to treat osteoporosis.

Aim: To investigate a possible potentiation effect of apomorphine (APO) on sildenafil-induced penile erection in the conscious rabbit. Methods: Erection of male New Zealand White rabbits (3.5-4.0 kg, n=12) was assessed by measuring the length of the uncovered penile mucosa and the duration of erection before and after intravenous administration of agents. After injection of APO (0, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.4 mg/kg), sildenafil was administered intravenously in a dose-response manner (0.5, 1 and 5 mg/kg). In additional experiments, the effect of increasing doses of sildenafil in combination with APO on systemic blood pressure was evaluated. Results: Systemic administration of sildenafil induced a dose-dependent increase in the penile length. Intravenous injection of APO alone did not produce any change in the penile length, while significantly enhanced the penile erection induced by sildenafil. The co-administration of 0.1 mg/kg of APO and 1 mg/kg of sildenafil was found to be the most effective combination in producing penile erection. Intravenous administration of sildenafil caused a concentration-dependent decrease in systemic blood pressure, but no additional decrease was observed with co-administration of APO. Conclusion: APO enhances the penile erection induced by sildenafil in the conscious rabbit without causing an additional decrease in blood pressure.

Dear Editor, The LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES DOMAIN （LBD）/ ASYMMETRICLEAVES2-LIKE （ASL） genes （hereafter referred to as LBD） encode proteins containing a conserved plant-specific LOB domain and play roles in lateral organ development （Iwakawa et al., 2002; Shuai et al., 2002; Majer and Hochholdinger, 2011）. The LOB domain is approximately 100 amino acids in length and contains a conserved four-Cys motif （CX2CX6CX3C）, the Gly-Ala-Ser block （GAS）, and the leucine-zipper-like coiled-coil motif （LX6LX3LX6L）（Shuai et al., 2002）. The leucine-zipper-like coiled-coil motif in the LOB domain is predicted to function in protein dimerization. LOB, AS2, and LBD4 preferentially bind unique DNA sequences in electrophoretic mobility shift assays （EMSAs）（Husbands et al., 2007）. The LOB domain of AS2 cannot be functionally replaced by those of other members of the LOB family,

BACKGROUND Enema administration is a common procedure in the emergency department(ED). However, several published case reports on enema-related ischemic colitis(IC) have raised the concerns regarding the safety of enema agents. Nevertheless, information on its true incidence and characteristics are still *** To investigate the incidence, timing, and risk factors of IC in patients receiving *** We consecutively collected the data of all adult patients receiving various enema administrations in the ED from January 2010 to December 2018 and identified patients confirmed with IC following enema. Of 8320 patients receiving glycerin enema, 19 diagnosed of IC were compared with an age-matched control group without *** The incidence of IC was 0.23% among 8320 patients receiving glycerin enema;however, there was no occurrence of IC among those who used other enema agents. The mean age ± standard deviation(SD) of patients with glycerin enemarelated IC was 70.2 ± 11.7. The mean time interval ± SD from glycerin enema administration to IC occurrence was 5.5 h ± 3.9 h(range 1-15 h). Of the 19 glycerin enema-related IC cases, 15(79.0%) were diagnosed within 8 h. The independent risk factors for glycerin-related IC were the constipation score [Odds ratio(OR), 2.0;95% confidence interval(CI): 1.1-3.5, P = 0.017] and leukocytosis(OR, 4.5;95%CI: 1.4-14.7, P = 0.012).CONCLUSION The incidence of glycerin enema-related IC was 0.23% and occurred mostly in the elderly in the early period following enema administration. Glycerin enemarelated IC was associated with the constipation score and leukocytosis.

The thermal conductivity of polymer composites can be enhanced by the vertical alignment of anisotropic aluminum nitride(AlN)platelet fillers in polymer *** AlN platelets in polymer matrix were aligned in the direction of in-plane and out-of-plane by using the doctor blading and the lamination *** alignment of AlN plates in the out-of-plane or the in-plane direction has been confirmed by XRD and FE-SEM *** polymer composite with the out-of-plane aligned AlN platelets showed almost 1.5 times or 2 times higher thermal conductivity than those with the AlN spheres or the in-plane aligned AlN platelets at the same filler content,*** result could be attributed to the improvement of thermal pathway generated along the plane of platelets and the decrease of interfaces between the filler and the polymer.
