Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of hydrogen-rich saline on allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) in mice and to explore its underlying mechanisms.Methods Forty mice were equally divided into 4 groups:control group,control treatment group,ACD group and ACD treatment group.ACD was induced by repetitive topical application of dinitrofluorobene (DNFB) to the left ear of mice on day 1,2 and 5.Hydrogen-rich saline was intraperitoneally given to the mice in the ACD treatment group at a dose of 5 ml/kg per day from day 1 to 5.On day 6,the mice were sacrificed,ear tissue was removed from them and subjected to measurement of thickness and weight,detection of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α,interleukin (IL)-6,IL-17 and interferon (IFN)-γ expression by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay,as well as numeration of inflammatory cells in lesions after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining.Data were processed by SPSS 18.0 software,and statistical analysis was carried out by one-way analysis of variance and least significant difference (LSD) procedure.Results Compared with the control group,the ACD group showed a significant increase in lesion score (7.33 ± 1.53 vs.0,P ＜ 0.05),differences in the thickness ((0.73 ± 0.15) mm vs.(0.13 ± 0.05) mm,P ＜ 0.05) and swelling degree (expressed as tissue weight:(18.67 ± 3.05) mg vs.(3.33 ± 1.52) mg,P ＜ 0.05) between the left and right ear,expressions of TNF-α ((1475.52 ± 233.81) pg/mg vs.(239.01 ± 52.39) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-6 ((184.65 ± 78.39) pg/mg vs.(42.28 ± 17.64) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-17 ((628.56 ± 201.44) pg/mg vs.(127.58 ± 50.28) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05) and IFN-γ ((197.72 ± 37.81) pg/mg vs.(24.57 ± 8.31) pg/mg,P ＜ 0.05),and the number of inflammatory cells per square millimetre in the left ear tissue (752.00 ± 166.06 vs.127.33 ± 77.18,P ＜ 0.05).However,hydrogen-rich saline treatment induced a statistical decrease in all of these parameters in the ACD treatment group compared with the ACD group,including lesion score (3.33 ± 0.58,P ＜ 0.05),difference in thickness ((0.46 ± 0.11) mm,P ＜ 0.05) and swelling degree ((11.00 ± 2.64) mg,P ＜ 0.05),expressions of TNF-α ((817.72 ± 101.13) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-6 ((95.86 ± 36.65) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IL-17 ((373.38 ± 126.74) pg/mg,P＜ 0.05),IFN-γ ((63.31± 17.38) pg/mg,P ＜ 0.05) and the number of inflammatory cells per square millimetre (384.00 ± 97.35,P ＜0.05).Conclusion Hydrogen may inhibit the release of inflammatory factors in ACD.

Objective To observe the effect of hydrogen on ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced oxidative damage to skin fibroblasts.Methods Primary human skin fibroblasts from foreskin tissues were divided into five groups:normal control group receiving no treatment,hydrogen control group treated with hydrogen-rich saline,UVB group receiving irradiation only,post-treatment group irradiated with UVB followed by hydrogen-rich saline treatment,and pre-treatment group treated with hydrogen-rich saline followed by UVB irradiation.The dose of UVB was 30,60 and 90 mJ/cm2 in the cell proliferation assay and 90 mJ/cm2 in the other experiments.Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to evaluate the proliferative activity of fibroblasts,a chemiluminescence method to estimate the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase as well as to determine the level of malondialdehyde in the culture supernatant of fibroblasts,enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to determine the supernatant level of 8-isoprostane-prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-PGF2α),Western blot to detect the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in fibroblasts.One-factor analysis of variance was conducted to assess differences in these parameters among these groups.Results UVB irradiation decreased the proliferative activity (absorbence value at 490 nm) of fibroblasts in a dose-dependent manner.Both the pre-treatment group and post-treatment group showed a statistical increase in proliferative activity of cells compared with the corresponding UVB control groups (all P ＜ 0.05).The activity of SOD and catalase as well as the protein expression of HO-1 were significantly higher (all P ＜ 0.05),whereas the supernatant levels of malondialdehyde and 8-iso-PGF2α were statistically lower (both P ＜ 0.05) in the pre-treatment group and post-treatment group than in the UVB control group.Conclusion Hydrogen may mitigate UVB-induced oxidative damage to skin fibroblasts.

Objective To investigate the effect of the different position on hemodynamic moni-tored by FloTrac/Vigileo system in patients undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy.Methods Sixty patients undergoing laparoscopic appendectomy,ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were randomly divided into three groups (n=20):group A,B and C underwent the trendelenburg position of 10 degrees,20 degrees and 30 degrees,respectively.HR,MAP,cardiac output (CO),cardiac index (CI)and stroke volume (SV)were recorded before pneumoperitoneum (T0 ),1 min after pneumoperitoneum (T1 ),5 min af-ter trendelenburg position (T2 ),20 min after pneumoperitoneum (T3 ),1 min after the end of pneu-moperitoneum (T4 )and 5 min after the end of trendelenburg position (T5 )after induction of anesthe-sia.The time of pneumoperitoneum and operation was recorded.Results Compared with T0 ,HR and MAP increased significantly at T1-T3 in three groups(P<0.05);Compared with group C,CO and SV decreased significantly at T2-T3 in group A and group B (P<0.05).Compared with T1 ,CO and SV increased at T2-T3 in group C (P<0.05).Compared with group C,the time of pneumoperitoneum and operation was longer in group A and B (P<0.05).Conclusion During the operation of laparo-scopic appendectomy,the change of the hemodynamic is in clinical safe range,and the time of pneu-moperitoneum and operation is shorter in the position of 30°than 10°and 20°in laparoscopic appen-dectomy.

BACKGROUND:The treatment of pulmonary hypertension secondary to congenital heart disease has been a hot topic in the clinical research on cardiac surgery. Although traditional drugs for reducing pulmonary hypertension have excelent effects, there are some defaults, such as difficult monitoring and rebounding phenomenon after drug withdrawal. The traditional heart dacron graft is prone to cause complications, such as deformation, thrombosis, embolism, hemolysis and infection. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of glutaraldehyde-fixed bovine pericardium patch and aerosolized iloprost in patients with pulmonary hypertension secondary to congenital heart disease. METHODS:Ninety patients with pulmonary hypertension due to congenital heart disease underwent a surgery. Glutaraldehyde-treated bovine pericardium patch were used to repair cardiac septal defect, and then aerosolized iloprost was applied after operation, administered for 3 days according to 30 ng/min/kg, every 4 hours in the first 12 hours of a day, and every 6 hours in the resting 12 hours. Mean arterial pressure, mean pulmonary arterial pressure, systemic vascular resistance index, pulmonary vascular resistance index were recorded before inhalation, immediately after inhalation, and 30 minutes after inhalation. The pericardium-associated complications, and cardiac function were also observed at folow-ups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The involved 90 cases were detected by echocardiography. The results showed that, al the flaps were closed, there was no shunting or echo discontinuation of atrial septum. The heart contraction function was normal. No pericardium-associated complications were found. There was no significant difference in the mean arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance index in al patients at different time points. The mean pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance index immediately after inhalation were significantly lower than that before inhalation (P < 0.01). The decrease was also significant 30 minutes after inhalation (P < 0.05). The intervention of glutaraldehyde-fixed bovine pericardium patch and aerosolized iloprost is safe and effective to treat patients with pulmonary hypertension secondary to congenital heart disease.

Objective To observe homing of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in immune organs and inflammatory joints in collagen induced arthritis(CIA) rats. MethodsRats MSCs were isolated and expanded from bone marrow cells by density gradient centrifugation and adhering to the culture cell walls, and the phenotypes were assessed by flow cytometry. MSCs were labeled by PKH-26 and Brdu. Sixty-four rats were randomly divided into normal group and CIA group. Every 8 rats were sacrificed at 3, 11, 30, 42 days after transplantation of MSCs. At the end of the experiment, the specimens of thymus gland, spleen, ankle joints were exposed, fixed, decalcified, wrapped and cut into slices. Confocal laser scanning microscope and immunohistochemical method were used to observe migration and distribution of MSCs in different organs. Independent samples group t test with SPSS 12.0 software package was used for statistical analysis. ResultsIt was found that allogenic MSCs could stay in spleen, thymus gland and joints of CIA rats for a relatively long period (42days). Forty-two days after transplantation of MSCs, the average grey scale values of spleen and thymus gland in CIA group(37.5±8.8, 29.9±5.9 respectively) were significantly higher than the normal group(16.0±2.3,13.2±4.3 respectively), the average grey scale values of ankle joints in CIA group 78±8 was significantly lower than the normal group 93±14(P<0.05). ConclusionIt has been found that MSCs can stay in the injured tissue and organs preferentially.
