Pathophysiology and management of sensitive skin: position paper from the special interest group on sensitive skin of the International Forum for the Study of Itch (IFSI)

The special interest group on sensitive skin of the International Forum for the Study of Itch previously defined sensitive skin as a syndrome defined by the occurrence of unpleasant sensations (stinging, burning, pain, pruritus and tingling sensations) in response to stimuli that normally should not provoke such sensations. This additional paper focuses on the pathophysiology and the management of sensitive skin. Sensitive skin is not an immunological disorder but is related to alterations of the skin nervous system. Skin barrier abnormalities are frequently associated, but there is no cause and direct relationship. Further studies are needed to better understand the pathophysiology of sensitive skin – as well as the inducing factors. Avoidance of possible triggering factors and the use of well-tolerated cosmetics, especially those containing inhibitors of unpleasant sensations, might be suggested for patients with sensitive skin. The role of psychosocial factors, such as stress or negative expectations, might be relevant for subgroups of patients. To date, there is no clinical trial supporting the use of topical or systemic drugs in sensitive skin. The published data are not sufficient to reach a consensus on sensitive skin management. In general, patients with sensitive skin require a personalized approach, taking into account various biomedical, neural and psychosocial factors affecting sensitive skin.

Responses of CDKs and p53 in Delayed Ischemic Neuronal Death

Stroke is a debilitating disease that affects millions each year.While in many cases cerebral ischemic in jury can be limited by effectivw resuscitation or thrombolytic treatment,the injured neurons wither in a process known as delayed neuronal death(DND).Mounting evidence indicates that DND is not simply necrosis played out in slow motion but apoptosis is triggered.Of particular interest are two groups of signal proteins that participate in apoptosis-cyclin dependent kinases(CDKs) and p53-among a myriad of signaling events after an ischemic insult.Recent investigations have shown that CDKs,a family of enzymes initially known for their role in cell cycle regulation,are activated in injured neurons in DND.As for p53,new reports suggest that its up-regulation may represent a failed attempt to rescue in jured neurons,although its up-regulation was previously considered an indication of apoptosis.These observations thus rekindle an old quest to identify new neuroprotective targets to minimize the stroke damage.In this review,the author will examine the evidence that indicates the participation of CDKs and p53 in DND and then introduce pre-clinical data to explore CDK inhibition as a potential neuroprotective target.Finally,using CDK inhibition as an example,this paper will discuss the pertinent criteria for a viable neuroprotective strategy for ischemic in jury.

手术创伤中腹膜组织Sp1、COL1A1和TIMP-1的表达

目的　探讨人手术创伤腹膜组织中核转录因子Sp1激活 ,COL1A1和TIMP 1表达变化与腹膜纤维化之间的关系。方法　采用凝胶电泳迁移率改变分析法 (EMSA)检测手术创伤后不同时间的腹膜组织核转录因子Sp1的表达水平 ,WesternBlot检测COL1A1和TIMP 1蛋白表达 ,Masson染色观察腹膜组织中胶原纤维的变化。结果　Sp1在手术创伤后 0 .5h被活化 ,随着手术时间延长Sp1活性逐渐增强 ,至创伤后 4h时达高峰 ,同时创伤腹膜组织中的COL1A1和TIMP 1蛋白表达水平逐渐升高 ,存在差异显著性 (P <0 .0 1)。在手术创伤期内随手术时间的延长腹膜组织中胶原纤维增加。结论　核转录因子Sp1活化导致Ⅰ型胶原合成增加 ,细胞外基质降解减少 ,从而启动腹膜纤维化进程。
