Diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of pulmonary diseases

The present invention provides methods to protect a subject from a respiratory disorder involving an airway obstructive disease such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Provided are methods to protect a subject from an airway obstructive disease using gene therapy. Methods are provided for supplying FoxA2 function to cells of the lung and airway, such as smooth muscle and epithelial cells, by FoxA2 gene therapy. The FoxA2 gene, a modified FoxA2 gene, or a part of the gene may be introduced into the cell in a vector such that the gene remains extrachromosomal or may be integrated into the subjects chromosomal DNA for expression. These methods provide for administering to a subject in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of a FoxA2 gene, or pharmaceutically acceptable composition thereof, for overexpressing the FoxA2 gene. Such methods of expressing the administered FoxA2 gene in the lungs and airway provide for: (1) preventing or alleving bronchial hyperresponsiveness; (2) preventing or alleving of an airway obstructive disease, e.g., bronchial hyperreactivity, airway hyperresponsiveness, asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (“COPD”); (3) reducing the airway resistance response to inhaled natural or synthetic bronchoconstrictors or allergens or to exercise; and (4) enhancing responsiveness (relaxation) of airway tissues to β-agonists.

PCSK9 (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kexin Type 9) resistant monoclonal antibody

The invention relates to the technical field of antibody engineering and in particular discloses a PCSK9 (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kexin Type 9) resistant monoclonal antibody. The monoclonal antibody disclosed by the invention comprises an amino acid sequence coding an antibody variable region and a CDR region. The invention further discloses an acquiring method and application of the monoclonal antibody. The method comprises the following steps: screening a PCSK9 resistant monoclonal antibody from a phage antibody library, performing affinity maturation through a method for constructing the phage antibody library by virtue of strand displacement, performing mutant library-construction screening on light-chain CDR1, 2 and 3 regions of the monoclonal antibody obtained by preliminaryscreening, selecting a monoclonal antibody with high affinity, performing mutant library-construction screening on heavy-chain CDR1, 2 and 3 regions of the monoclonal antibody, and finally screeningthe PCSK9 resistant monoclonal antibody with high affinity. The PCSK9 resistant monoclonal antibody obtained in the invention has excellent affinity to PCSK9, is capable of inhibiting binding betweenthe PCSK9 and ligands thereof, and can be used for treating dyslipidemia, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and thrombosis-obstructive diseases.

Image fusion method for detecting peripheral vascular obstructive diseases

The invention discloses an image fusion method for detecting peripheral vascular obstructive diseases. The method comprises: in a first part, using a near-infrared II-region fluorescent blood vessel imaging technology and a laser speckle blood flow imaging technology for obtaining two heterologous images; in a second part, using an image fusion method for carrying out operation on the two images output in the last step; wherein the third part is used for positioning a concerned blood vessel in the living blood vessel information image, calculating indexes for reflecting the health condition ofthe blood vessel, mainly the blood vessel diameter stenosis rate and the blood flow velocity, and finally detecting whether the blood vessel is blocked or not according to the indexes. The advantageinformation and complementary information of the static blood vessel image and the dynamic blood flow image are organically combined, the part and the condition of vascular occlusion lesion can be well displayed, and other reasons causing limb swelling or pain, such as hematoma, vein compression and the like, can be found out. The development condition of the disease of the patient can be effectively evaluated, and corresponding treatment is provided for clinic.

Lacrimal duct water-spreading equipment and lacrimal duct bougie therewith

The invention relates to a lacrimal passage conduction device and a matching lacrimal passage prospecting apparatus to cure lacrimal passage block. A current tubular conduction device has the disadvantages that the operation is complicated when putting the conduction device in the lacrimal passage and it needs to probe the lacrimal passage through first and then introduce in the conduction device through a down-lead. The invention discloses a lacrimal passage conduction device and a matching lacrimal passage prospecting stick, which can solve the above problem. The lacrimal passage conduction device comprises at least one conduction part composed of at least one bendable solid strip, at least one connecting part connected with the conduction part to connect the probing end of the lacrimal passage prospecting stick and at least one detaining part connected with the other end of the conduction part to prevent the entire conduction device from sliding into the lacrimal passage. The matching lacrimal passage prospecting stick is provided with a fixing device at the position with a certain distance from the probing end of the prospecting stick to relatively fix the prospecting stick and the lacrimal passage conduction device. With the matching lacrimal passage prospecting apparatus, the lacrimal passage probing and the installation of the lacrimal passage conduction device can be done at the same time.
