Objective To investigate the feasibility of transplantation of mesenchymal stem cell (aisc) into expanion skin. Methods MSCs were isolated from porker's bone marrow and cultured in vitro. Pigs were randomly divided into four groups: Group A was injected with MSCs on the local expansion; Group B was injected with MSCs from ear vein; Group C was planted expander only; Group D was the contronl group. Each side of pig's spinal column was implanted with three expander in groups A, B and C. The same volume of NS was injected at the fixed time, the marked area measured after 7, 14, 28 days of expansion, the difference of those area was compared between groups. The differentiation of BM-MSC was detected by immunofluorescence. Results Flow-cytometric analysis showed that these BMSCs expressed CD90 and CD29 highly but did not express CD34 or CD45. The expansion area (cm2) of groups A, B, C and D was 34.05±0. 92, 31.83±l. 07,30. 10±0.79, and 18. 27±0.25, respectively (P＜0. 01). Immunofluorescence showed that the positive expression rate of CD31, PCNA in groups A and B was higher than that in groups C and D, in which the expression was the highest in group A. Conclusions Allogeneic transplantation of BM-MSC can promote skin expansion and the effect of local transplantation group is most significant.

Objective:To study the abnormal suppressive capacity of regulatory T cells ( Tregs) to effector cells,Th17 cells and Th9 cells in patients with mild to moderate asthma attack.Methods: Recruited asthmatic patients (n=30) and healthy control (n=30),collected peripheral venous blood from healthy control and asthmatic patients in mild to moderate attack stage respectively,and then isolated CD4+CD25+CD127-/low Tregs and CD4+CD25-T effect cells with immunomagnetic beads method ( purity was above 90%).The effect cells were cultured with PHA stimulation with or without Tregs.Measured the proliferation (3H-Thymidine), expression of RORC and PU.1 ( RT-PCR) genes,production of IL-17 and IL-9 ( LUMNEX) in effect cells with or without Tregs inter-vention.Analyzed the abnormality of Th17 and Th9 cells and the supressive capacity of Tregs on Th17 and Th9 cells in patients with asthma attack,comparing with control group.Results:Tregs of asthmatic patients could suppress the proliferation of effector cells,but less effectively than healthy control (P=0.03).In asthmatic patients,RORC expression and IL-17 production increased (P<0.05), and the suppressive capacity of Tregs to RORC expression decreased, when compared with healthy group ( P<0.05 ) .In asthmatic patients,IL-9 production of effector cells increased significantly (P<0.05),but PU.1 expression was higher than healthy group only with intervention of Tregs ( P=0.04 ) .And the suppressive capacity of Tregs to the expression of PU.1 and production of IL-9 in patients with asthma attack did not decrease (P>0.05).Conclusion:The suppressive capacity and amount of Tregs decreased,but the specific gene expression and cytokines production of Th17 cells and Th9 cells were upregulated in patients with mild to moderate asthma attack.This deficiency for the suppressive capacity of Tregs to Th17 but not Th9 cells may indicate some pathogenesis of asthma devel-opment.
