AIM: To observe the changes of the morphology and structure of macula, blood flow density of macula and optic disc, as well as retinal nerve fiber layer thickness by optical coherence tomography(OCT)and optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)under went sclera buckling(SB). METHODS: As a cross-sectional case-controlled study, 25 patients(25 eyes)were diagnosed with RRD in the department of ophthalmology, Ganzhou People's Hospital from July 2014 to March 2021. The differences in the vascular density(VD)of superficial vessel cluster(SVC), the VD of deep vessel cluster(DVC)of macula, the SVC-VD of optic disc, retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL), central macular thickness(CMT), subfoveal choroidal thickness(SFCT)and outer structure of macula between the affected eyes and healthy eyes at the last post-operative follow-up were compared, and the correlation indicators affecting best corrected visual acuity(BCVA, LogMAR)of the affected eyes at the last follow-up were analyzed. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant in SVC-VD and DVC-VD of macula, SVC-VD of optic disc, RNFL, CMT, SFCT between the affected eyes and healthy eyes at the last post-operative follow-up(all P>0.05); At the last follow-up visit, the comparison of macular outer structure on OCT between the affected eyes and the healthy eyes showed that the light band integrity of the external limiting membrane(ELM), myoid zone(MZ), ellipsoid zone(EZ)and outer segment of photoreceptor(OS)had no statistically significant difference(all P>0.05), while the light band integrity of interdigitation zone(IZ)had significant difference(P=0.014); The difference of BCVA(LogMAR)between the affected eyes and the healthy eyes at the last follow-up was statistically significant(P=0.002). There was significant correlation between BCVA(LogMAR)of affected eyes at the last post-operative follow-up and the presence or absence of macular involvement, the correlated with SVC-VD of optic disc, the integrity of the light bands of ELM, MZ, EZ, OS and IZ on the outer structure of macula, it was positively correlated with the presence or absence of macular involvement(rs=0.401, P=0.047)and it was negatively correlated with SVC-VD of optic disc, the integrity of the light bands of ELM, MZ, EZ, OS and IZ on the outer structure of macula(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The OCT and OCTA can be used to observe fundus changes after SB surgery for RRD to obtain long-term follow-up information related to vision prognosis, and visual prognosis depends on the recovery of retinal outer structure, and the integrity of IZ structure is more important for visual recovery; The SVC-VD of optic disc is correlated with visual prognosis, and whether it was correlated with intraocular pressure require further observation and verification with postoperative continuous data.

To explore the role of cortical actin-binding protein (cortactin) in shear stress-induced mucin (MUC) 5AC secretion in human airway epithelial cells and the effect of phosphorylation of cortactin at different sites. Methods: HBE16 airway epithelial cells were cultured, and then transfected with mutation carrier, such as pEGFP-N1-cortactin (Cort), pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y421A, pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y470A and pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y486A. The cells were divided into a normal control group, a shear stress group, a shear stress + pEGFP-N1 group, a shear stress + PEGFP-N1-Cort group, a shear stress + pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y421A group, a shear stress + pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y470A group, and a shear stress + pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y486A group. The shear stress were set at 4 dynes/cm2. The levels of MUC5AC protein and mRNA in cells and culture supernatant were assayed with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and real-time PCR. The cortactin and phosphorylated cortactin were detected by Western blot. F-actin was stained by fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-phalloidin. Results: There was an obvious increase of phosphorylated cortactin in cells exposed to 4 dynes/cm2 of shear stress for 30 min, which reached climax at 2 hours concomitant with elevation of MUC5AC protein production and mRNA expression in the different experiment groups (all P0.05). Conclusion: Cortactin is involved in shear stress-mediated MUC5AC secretion in human airway epithelial cells, and the phosphorylated site of Tyr421 and Tyr470 may play an important role in it.
