摘要
目的比较金属基质蛋白酶-9(MMP-9)、基质金属蛋白酶抑制剂(TIMP-1)、新生血管因子(VEGF)在翼状胬肉中的表达,探讨3者在翼状胬肉中的作用。方法收集复发性翼状胬肉患者翼状胬肉标本38例、初发性翼状胬肉患者翼状胬肉标本47例和斜视患者球结膜标本32例。采用免疫组化法检测85例翼状胬肉和32例正常人球结膜中MMP-9、TIMP-1及VEGF的表达,比较MMP-9、TIMP-1及VEGF在3组中的表达差异,分析3者在翼状胬肉中表达的相关性。结果复发性翼状胬肉和初发翼状胬肉标本均有MMP-9、TIMP-1和VEGF的表达,MMP-9、TIMP-1和VEGF在复发翼状胬肉和初发翼状胬肉中阳性表达均显著高于正常球结膜。经相关检验分析,在翼状胬肉中,MMP-9和VEGF的阳性表达存在相关性;而TIMP-1与VEGF表达间无显著相关性。结论 MMP-9在翼状胬肉发生和复发过程中发挥重要作用。其可能通过破坏细胞外基质的屏障和促进VEGF产生来调控翼状胬肉的发生和复发。细胞外基质屏障的打破可能是翼状胬肉发病的基础。
Objective To investigate the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF), matrix metallo- proteinase 9 (MMP-9) and matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor 1 (TIMP-1) in pterygium and find the roles of them in this disease. Methods Thirty-eight recurrent pterygium, forty-seven early onset pterygium and thirty-two normal bulbar conjunctivas were obtained in present study. The expressions of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and VEGF were tested in 85 cases of pterygium and 32 cases of normal eonjunctival by using immune histochemical method. The expressions of the MMP-9, TIMP-1 and VEGF were compared in the three groups of patients and the relations among them were analyzed. Results The MMP-9, TIMP-1 and VEGF were expressed in the recurrent pterygium and early pterygium specimens. The positive rates of MMP-9, TIMP-1 and VEGF significantly increased in the recurrent and early pte- rygium pterygium samples compared with the normal conjunctiva samples. In pterygium, there was a relation be- tween expression MMP-9 and VEGF correlation exists, but there was no correlation between TIMP-1 and VEGF by using the X2 analysis. Conclusion MMP-9 plays an important role in the pathogenosis of occurrence and recur- rence pterygium. It may destroy the extracellular matrix barriers and promote VEGF production to control the occur- rence and recurrence of pterygimn. Breaking down the extracellular matrix barriers may be the basis in human pterygium pathogenesis.
