Objective To investigate the efficacy of ablative fractionated erbium: yttrium aluminum garnet (Er: YAG) laser in facial acne scars and enlarged pores. Methods Forty-one patients with mild to moderate pitted acne scars and 23 patients with enlarged pores were treated with 81 (9 × 9) bits of facula for 3 to 5 sessions at an interval of 1 month. For acne scars, the pulse duration was medium to long, energy at 800 to 1200 mJ, and number of stacking passes 4 to 8; for enlarged pores, the pulse duration was medium, energy at 800 to 1000 mJ and number of stacking passes 2 to 4. The clinical improvement was evaluated by 2 blinded dermatologists. Meanwhile, the satisfaction rate was self-assessed by patients. Three-dimensional (3D) micro-topography imaging system was used to evaluate the improvement in surface roughness. Results The efficacy reached 82.93% and 86.96% for ache scars and enlarged pores, respectively. The satisfaction rate was 88.80% and 91.30% in patients with ache scars and those with enlarged pores, respectively. After treatment, the Ra and Rz values, as the indicators of roughness, decreased by 18.74% and 21.01%, individually (P < 0.001) in 11 patients including 6 with acne scars and 5 with enlarged pores. Conclusion Ablative fractionated Er:YAG laser can efficiently resurface pitted ache scars and shrink enlarged pores.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of intracoronary,antologous bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation on the patients with chronic heart failure.Methods Eighty patients with chronic heart failure were assigned into bone marrow cell transplantation group (n=48) and control group (n=32),with intmcomnary delivery of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell suspension or not respectively,in addifion to conventional treatment.The left venlrieular ejection fractions (LVEF),the level of plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP),and the siges of myocardial perfusion defect were measured and compared with useing single photom emission computed tomography (SPECT) and echocardiography before and after the treatment.Results The one year follow-up results showed that LVEF increased from base-line (42.1±5.8)%,(43.9±6.7)% to (54.1±4.8)%,(49.8±7.7)% by echocardiography.The plasma levels of BNP decreased from base-line (699±101)ng/L,(687±95)ng/L to (305±78)ng/L,(399±89)ng/L,and the size of myocardial perfusion defect decreased from bese-line (26.8±8.6)%,(26.3±6.5)% to (15.8±4.3)%,(20.5±7.8)% in bone marrow cell transplantation group and control group respectively,the absolute changes were statistically significant.During and after the procedure of bone marrow cell transplantation group,there was no complication occurring. Conclusion Intmcoronary autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation for treating patients with chronic heart failure results in improvement in left ventricular systolic function and myocardial perfusion,and this therapy is safe and feasible.

BACKGROUND: Nerve growth factor is secreted and synthetized by a variety of cells, such as inflammatory calls and repairing calls, its biological effects are diverse and closely related to the process of wound repair, but its mechanism is not yet clear.OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of nerve growth factor on the biological characteristics of scar fibroblasts.METHODS: Eight clinical surgical resection specimens, including 5 face and neck hyperplastic scar or keloid specimens, did not receive any treatment; three were prepuce specimens following circumcision (normal tissue). By use of tissue block method, the scar and normal skin fibroblasts were cultured, followed by digestion passage. The scar tissue and normal tissue flbroblasts at 3-6passages in the logarithmic phase were seeded in 96-well plate and divided into the experimental group (scar flbroblest group) and the control group (normal skin fibroblasts group), with two parallel holes in each group were added with 3,33, 0.33 mg/L nerve growth factor, 50 μL. Inverted microscope was used to observe fibroblast morphology. At 24, 48, 72 hours after culture, the absorbanca value was measured using MTT. Fibroblast DNA content and cell apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The fibroblasts were adherent cells, the scar and normal skin tissues were shown to cell free out of tissue block and gradual expansion at 4-6 days after incubation. Compared with normal skin fibroblasts, the pathological scar fibroblasts became larger, irregular shape and arrangement. MTT results showed that nerve growth factor could promote the normal and hypertrophic scar fibroblasts growth, which becomes more apparent. Flow cytometry results showed that by adding nerve growth factor, the percentage of scar fibroblasts at proliferating S-G_2-M phase was higher than that in the control;group; with a Iower level of apoptosis. It is indicated that nerve growth factor plays an obviously promoting role on normal and scar skin fibroblasts growth and proliferation, especially on the scar skin.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of green tea-based cream at different con- centrations on photoaging and photo-immunosuppression. Methods Twenty healthy female volunteers were enrolled into this study with informed consent. Green tea-based cream with a mass fraction of 2%-5% (pre- pared by adding green tea extracts to an emollient formulation), excipient or green tea extracts alone were applied to six unexposed sites on the back of these volunteers. Thirty minutes later, these treated sites were subjected to solar-simulated ultraviolet irradiation (ssUVR) with a 1.5-fold minimal erythema dose once a day for 4 days. At 6, 24 and 48 hours after the last irradiation, green tea-based cream were applied repeatedly to the corresponding sites. Biopsy specimens were obtained from the seven sites 72 hours following the last irradiation, and immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect cytokeratin 5/6 and 16 expression, as well as the densities of CDla- or HLA-DR-positive cells. Resttlts Green tea-based cream at a mass fraction of 2% to 3% could effectively prevent ssUVR-induced obvious erythema and hyperpigmentation. The posi- tivity (+) rates plus strong positivity (++) rates reached 50% and 25% for CK5/6 in the sites treated with ssUVR only and those irradiated and protected with green tea cream at a mass fraction of 3%, respectively, 69% and 31% in the sites treated with ssUVR only and those irradiated and protected with green tea-based cream at a mass fraction of 2%, respectively. Compared with the control site without irradiation or protec- tion, a decrease over 75% was noticed in the density of epidermal CD1a- or HLA-DR- positive Langerhans cells in the irradiated sites without protection, and green tea-based cream, especially those at a mass fraction of 3%, could effectively inhibit the density decrease. Conclusion Green tea extracts could effectively pro- tect skin from photoaging and photo-immunosuppression with the optimal mass fraction at 2% or 3%.

Objective To explore the mechanism of cytokines for the scars,and to study the effect of platelet derived growth factor(PDGF)on the biological behavior of fibroblasts in scars.Methods Fibroblasts of scars and normal skins were cultured in vitro.The results were observed and analyzed by light inverted microscopy(LM),and 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5 ciphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT)assay.The effects of PDGF on the biological behaviors of fibroblasts of scars were also determined. Results In vitro study,using LM,FCM and MTT assay,showed that proliferation of fibroblasts were inereased significantly when PDGF was added to the cultures,as compared to the control groups.Conclusions PDGF can increase fibroblast proliferation.These results demonstrate that PDGF is beneficial for wound healing at early stage.
