Abstract:
Objective To compare the different response of dermal fibroblasts from normal and scar-ring skin to cytokines,extracellular matrix and collagen promoter.Methods Human dermal fibroblast cul-ture was established by explanting tissue specimens from normal and scarring skin.Cellular proliferative ac-tivities were determined with BrdU-ELISA after treatment with IFN-?A,hIFN-?,TNF?and laminin for24hours.Reporter genes driven by collagen promoters were analyzed in two types of dermal fibroblasts trans-fected with consensus constructs48hours later.Results Dermal fibroblasts from normal and scarring skins showed different proliferative responses to IFN-?A,hIFN-?,TNF?and laminin,with stimulatory effects pre-sented in normal fibroblasts treated with IFN-?A,hIFN-?,TNF?and laminin,inhibitory effects presented in scarring fibroblasts treated with IFN-?A and laminin,and reduced or resistant effects presented in scar-ring fibroblasts to hIFN-?and TNF?.The5'flanking sequences(-2483~+42bp,-1448~+42bp)from human?1(Ⅰ)procollagen gene had lower activity of promoter in scarring fibroblasts compared with that in normal fibroblasts.Conclusion Compared with normal dermal fibroblasts,scarring dermal fibroblasts have reduced response or are resistant to some cytokines.Lower collagen production capacity is anticipated since collagen promoter activity is low in scarring dermal fibroblasts.The pathological mechanism of scarring for-mation might be related to the change of responses of dermal fibroblasts.
