Conclusion

Abstract

Purpose: The effects of long term use of Benzalkonium chloride-preserved prostaglandin analogue eye drop on conjunctival bacterial flora was investigated and compared with preservative-free prostaglandin analogue eye drop

Methods: Conjunctival swabs were collected from 48 patients of glaucoma who had instilled either BAK-preserved latanoprost or preservative-free travoprost eye drops for 1 year. The bacterial characteristics and sensitivity patterns of the bacterial isolates from the conjunctival swabs of the two groups were compared between each other and also with conjunctival bacterial flora from normal healthy controls.

Results: There was no significant difference in culture positivity among the three groups (p = 0.99). 100% (13/13) isolates from Latanoprost group were Gram positive organisms. In the Travoprost group, 12 out of 14 isolates (85.7%) from 13 eyes were gram positive while the rest 2 bacteria (14.3%) were gram negative. In Controls, 14 out of 16 (87.5%) isolates were gram positive and the rest were gram negative. Methicillin-resistance was seen in 72.7% (8/11) of the CONS isolated from Latanoprost group, while 45.5% (5/11) of the CONS isolated from preservative free travoprost group were Methicillin resistant. While in the controls 45.4% (5/11) of the isolated CONS were Methicillin resistant. The occurrence of Methicillin resistant CONS (MR CONS) was higher in latanoprost group than the other two groups, though not statistically significant. Resistance to commonly used antibiotics was comparatively higher in BAK-preserved latanoprost group. Not a single gram positive bacteria was resistant to Vancomycin

Conclusion: Long-term use of prostaglandin analogues for glaucoma may adversely affect the antibiotic-resistance of indigenous bacterial flora of the eye by increasing the resistance against common antibiotics including Methicillin resistance.

Abstract

Aim: To investigate the effect of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) on the oxidation damage of retina of streptozotocininduced diabetes rats.

Methods: The diabetes rats were induced by injection streptozotocin intraperitoneally. LBP was intragastrically administered to the rats of the LBP group. Body weight and blood glucose were measured every four weeks. In the 24th week, the SOD and MDA of retina were measured, the expression of VEGF mRNA of retina was tested by RT-PCR, the ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscopy.

Results: The body weight decreased and the blood glucose increased in DM group and LBP group (P<0.01, VS control group). The body weight and blood glucose is the same level between DM group and LBP group (body weight P=0.503, blood glucose P=0.984). The SOD in DM group decreased and the MDA increased (P<0.05, VS control group). The SOD in LBP group increased and the MDA decreased (P<0.05, VS DM group). The expression of VEGF mRNA was highest in DM group and lowest in control group, and decreased in LBP group (P<0.05, VS DM group). The ultrastructure changes occur in almost all retinal nerve tissues in DM group, as represented by the number and morphology of mitochondria. A small amount of mild mitochondrial changes could be observed in the endochylema of bipolar and Müller cells in LBP group.

Conclusion: LBP can reduce the oxidative damage, alleviate the pathological changes in mitochondria, prevent the apoptosis of nerve cells and block the progression of diseases to the vascular tissue.
