Objective To discuss the relationship between the expression of PLOD2 and the formation of collagen I in the scar. Methods To detect the mRNA expression of PLOD2 and COLIα1 in the scar and normal skin tis-sue, as well as the content of COLIα1 by RT-PCR and Western blot; design and synthesize three kinds of PL0D2 ASODN targeted at the translational initiation, the joint of the first and the second exons and termination codon re-spectively , transfected into NIH/3T3 mouse fibroblast cell and detect the mRNA expression of COLIα1 and forma-tion of collagen I by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results The expression of PLOD2 in the scar tissue was signifi-cantly higher than that in the normal tissue ( P < 0. 05 ) , three kinds of ASODNs showed inhibitory effects on the mRNA expression of COLIα1 and formation of collagen I in fibroblast (P <0. 05) , during which the repressive ef-ficiency of ASODN targeted against the translational initiation was the highest (P <0. 001) ; while the mRNA ex-pression level of COLIα1 did not change in the scar tissue, normal tissue and the groups treated with three kinds of ASODN. Conclusion The high expression of PLOD2 is tightly related to the formation of collagen I , PLOD2 ASODN can suppress the formation of collagen I post-transcriptionally.

Objective To increase the solubility and relieve the mucous irritation of cantharidin (CA) by preparing cantharidin-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (CA/HP-β-CD) inclusion complex.Methods The inclusion complex was prepared by co-evaporation method and characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),X-ray diffractometry (XRD),and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).Results The disappearance of CA as well as the shift of exothermic peaks shown in DSC results indicated the complexation phenomenon.XRD results showed that the crystalline CA pattern had disappeared,and in NMR results,H-5 shifted from δ 3.731to 3.695 after complexation and H-2 shifted from δ 3.626 to 3.598,which suggested that part of the drug had entered the HP-β-CD cavity to form an inclusion complex.The solubility increased 10.3 times after complexation and the mucous irritation of CA was relieved remarkably.Conclusion Through complexation with HP-β-CD,the solubility and dissolution rate of CA are improved significantly,and the irritation of musous is relieved.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of clinically overt hemorrhagic cystitis(HC)(grade ≥Ⅱ) in 114 patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT) to predict the occurrence of HC.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 29 cases of clinically overt HC from a series of 114 patients subject to allo-HSCT from April 1997 to December 2004.The time of follow-up began from the day of initiating conditioning to day 180 post-transplant.The 11 clinical parameters were selected for univariate analysis using a Cox regression: age,sex,underlying disease,conditioning regimen,disease status at transplant,aGVHD,donor type,use of ATG,GVHD prophylaxis,platelet and neutrophil engraftment.Factors that were significant at the 0.1 level on univariate analysis were evaluated by multivariate analysis using a Cox regression.The cumulative incidence of grade ≥Ⅱ HC within the day 180 after transplantation was calculated by the method of Kaplan and Meier.Results Twenty-nine out of 114 patients(26 %) developed HC with grade Ⅱ in 12/29 cases(41.4 %),grade Ⅲ in 11/29 cases(37.9 %) and grade Ⅳ in 6/29 cases(20.7 %).The following factors were associated with an increased risk of HC by univariate analysis: male gender(RR=2.885,P=0.021),younger than 26 years(RR=3.265,P=0.002),gradeⅢ～Ⅳ aGVHD(RR=4.039,P=0.002),unrelated donor(RR=4.347,P=0.000),intense GVHD prophylaxis(RR=2.218,P=0.045),advanced disease(RR=2.668,P=0.009).These risk factors were entered into a multivariate model.Only male gender(RR=2.993,95 % CI 1.218-7.358;P=0.017) and unrelated donor(RR=4.478,95 % CI 2.049-9.786;P=0.000) were identified as being significantly associated with the occurrence of HC.Conclusion In multivariate analysis,patients were at increased risk of HC if they were male or had received grafts from unrelated donors.

Viperin is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated protein that has been identified as an innate antiviral protein. Viperin expression can be largely upregulated by viruses, interferons, and oligonucleotides such as poly I:C and lipopolysaccharides. Viperin inhibits viral replication by interactiing with host cell proteins and several viral proteins, and disrupting the cell membrane system. It shows a broad-spectrum of antiviral activity. Some viruses have developed activities that counteract the action of viperin during a long- term period of evolution with hosts by impairing viperin expression. In addition to its antiviral effects, viperin has several other biological functions. This article review the basic characteristics of viperin and the state of current research into its antiviral effects, demonstrating the rapid progress that has been made in this field.

Objective To observe the bacteriostatic effect of chitosan lactate with different relative molecular masses in vitro. Methods The MICs of the chitosans lactate with different relative molecular masses against the usual pathogens were detected,and the MBCS against two standard strains were also determined. Levofloxacin hydrochloride was used as a control drug. Results The MIC90 of chitosan lactate with 10,30,50kDa against 50 strains of gram-positive cocci and 50 strains of gram-negative bacilli were 0.5,1~4,0.5~4mg?mL-1 and 1~4,0.5~1 ,0.5~4mg?mL-1,respectively. The MIC90 of levofloxacin hydrochloride against the 50 strains of gram-positive cocci and 50 strains of gram-negative bacilli were 4～8 and 8～16?g?mL-1,respectively. ATCC 25923 strain of S.aureus and ATCC 25922 strain of E.coli could be killed by 10kDa chitosan lactate in the concentration of 4mg?mL-1. The MBCS of levofloxacin hydrochloride against ATCC25923 strain of S.aureus and ATCC 25922 strain of E.coli were 2 and 4?g?mL-1,respectively. Conclusion The 4 species of the experimental bacteria could be inhibited by the chitosan lactate with 10,30 and 50kDa Mr in vitro,but the inhibitory effect of the chitosan lactate with 10kDa Mr was stronger among them. ATCC 25923 strain of S.aureus and ATCC25923 strain of E.coli could be killed only by 10kDa chitosan lactate in vitro,not by others.
