补骨脂素抗增生性瘢痕作用机制研究

目的探讨补骨脂素抗增生性瘢痕的作用机制。方法体外培养成纤维细胞,按随机数字表法分为正常组(培养正常成纤维细胞)、瘢痕组(培养增生性瘢痕成纤维细胞)、TGF-β1组(10 ng/ml TGF-β1处理增生性瘢痕成纤维细胞5 min^12 h)、Smurf2 RNA干扰组[Smad泛素化调节因子2(Smad ubiquitin regulatory factor2,Smurf2)siRNA转染增生性瘢痕成纤维细胞72 h]、补骨脂素组(10μmol/L补骨脂素处理增生性瘢痕成纤维细胞继续培养72 h)、补骨脂素+TGF-β1组(增生性瘢痕成纤维细胞加入补骨脂素培养72 h后加入TGF-β1培养6 h)。采用Western blot法检测Smurf2、α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-actin SMA,α-SMA)蛋白表达;RT-PCR法检测Ⅰ型胶原蛋白mRNA表达;ELISA法检测TGF-β1蛋白分泌。结果与正常组比较,瘢痕组Smurf2蛋白[(0.83±0.08)比(0.38±0.07)]表达增加(P<0.05);与瘢痕组比较,Smurf2 RNA干扰组TGF-β1[(2.2±0.18)比(4.2±0.47)]表达降低(P<0.05);TGF-β1组Smurf2[(0.71±0.06)比(0.42±0.04)]、α-SMA[(1.42±0.12)比(0.91±0.09)]蛋白表达增加(P<0.05),Ⅰ型胶原蛋白mRNA[(0.72±0.09)比(0.41±0.07)]表达增加(P<0.05);补骨脂素组Smurf2[(0.05±0.01)比(0.42±0.04)]、α-SMA[(0.71±0.07)比(0.91±0.09)]蛋白表达降低(P<0.05),Ⅰ型胶原蛋白mRNA表达[(0.12±0.04)比(0.41±0.07)]降低(P<0.05)。结论补骨脂素可能通过TGF-β1/Smurf2信号通路抑制α-SMA蛋白表达,从而降低Ⅰ型胶原蛋白表达,起到抑制瘢痕形成的作用。     

实验家兔莱姆病血液学研究

本实验复制了莱姆病实验家兔模型，对血液生化23项进行了动态观察。结果表明，血液中谷丙转氨酶、γ-谷氨酰转肽酶、乳酸脱氢酶、谷草转氨酶、β-羟丁酸脱氢酶、磷酸肌酸激酶、胆固醇、尿素氮随病情加重而升高。葡萄糖、尿酸、磷随病情加重而减低。     

增生性瘢痕中血管内皮细胞生物学功能的研究

目的 探讨增生性瘢痕中血管内皮细胞的生物学功能及其与瘢痕形成的关系。方法 取人增生性瘢痕组织和正常皮肤组织，进行组织学观察。分离和纯化2种标本中的血管内皮细胞，应用酶联免疫吸附测定法分别检测单个血管内皮细胞中转化生长因子β1，（TGF-β1）、成纤维细胞生长因子2（FGF2）、血小板源性生长因子（PDGF）、内皮素1（ET-1）和血管内皮生长因子（VEGF）的水平。结果光学显微镜下可见正常皮肤微血管数目较少；增生性瘢痕微血管数目增多，血管狭长扭曲甚至闭塞。透射电镜可见增生性瘢痕中毛细血管管腔狭窄，有内皮细胞脱落。增生性瘢痕中血管内皮细胞分泌TGF-β1、PDGF、ET-1、VEGF、FGF2的水平分别为（60±8）、（30±4）、（0．12±0．03）、（52±5）、（18．1±1．2）μg／个细胞，明显低于正常皮肤（P〈0．05）。结论 增生性瘢痕中血管内皮细胞生物学功能减退，可能与瘢痕中胶原的大量产生和缺氧有关。     

Evaluation of the MagNA Pure LC used with the TRUGENE HBV Genotyping Kit.

BACKGROUND: The current manual sample processing method recommended for use with the TRUGENE HBV Genotyping Kit (TRUGENE HBV; Bayer HealthCare LLC, Tarrytown, NY) is labor-intensive and may be prone to specimen cross-contamination. Recent evaluations of the MagNA Pure LC (MP; Roche Applied Science, Indianapolis, IN) suggest that it is suitable for automated, contamination-free extraction and purification of viral nucleic acids from large-volume (1.0 mL) serum or plasma specimens. OBJECTIVES: We evaluated the MP Total Nucleic Acid Isolation Kit--Large Volume (Roche Applied Science) in conjunction with TRUGENE HBV to establish the analytical sensitivity (threshold titer) of the assay, in HBV DNA International Units (IU)/mL, for obtaining consistent, interpretable sequence data from TRUGENE HBV. STUDY DESIGN: HBV analytical standards, prepared as 10 replicates (1.0 mL each) at each of the following concentrations: 200, 1000, 5000, and 10,000 IU/mL, were processed by MP and analyzed by TRUGENE HBV according to manufacturer's instructions. Performance of TRUGENE HBV used in conjunction with MP sample processing was evaluated further using 22 clinical serum specimens containing low titers of HBV DNA. RESULTS: All replicates of HBV analytical standards at 1000, 5000, and 10,000 IU/mL yielded interpretable TRUGENE HBV sequences, whereas interpretable sequences were obtained in 90% (9 of 10) of the replicates at 200 IU/mL. TRUGENE HBV sequences were interpretable in 86% (19 of 22) of the clinical specimens studied. CONCLUSIONS: MP sample processing is efficient and suitable for use with TRUGENE HBV. When combined with MP sample processing, TRUGENE HBV yielded interpretable sequences from HBV analytical standards and clinical serum specimens with HBV DNA titers of > or =200 IU/mL.
