Objective To investigate DSA- estimated hepatic arterial hemodynamics of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) determined shortly after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) plus sorafenib treatment. Methods The clinical data of thirty HCC patients treated with TACE were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into study group (n = 13) and control group (n = 17). Patients in the study group received additional oral administration of 400mg sorafenib twice a day one week before or two weeks after TACE procedure, while patients in the control group received TACE only. The initial DSA images as well as the images obtained at three months after TACE were analyzed. With the help of Photoshop software, the grey gradient of the tumor staining was measured on the series dynamic DSA images, based on which the time- density curve of the tumor was drawn. The peak density value (PV), the time to reach the peak (TP) and the slope of the upslope (SU) were determined, and the results were compared between the two groups. Results Photoshop software was used to measure the grey density values of the tumor staining on DSA images. In the study group, the post- treatment PV was smaller than the pre- treatment one, which were (38.0 ± 14.6) and (46.7 ± 18.4) respectively, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P = 0.040). The post- treatment PV of the study group was also smaller than that of the post -treatment PV of the control group (54.4 ± 19.8), and the difference between the two was also statistically significant (P = 0.011). No significant differences in TP values and SU values existed between the two groups as well as between the pre - treatment and post - treatment ones in each group. Conclusion After TACE.

Journal of Central South University(Medical Sciences) 2015;40(5):564-568
Endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs), different from classical endothelial progenitor cells, are late endothelial progenitor cells with the capability to promote angiogenesis. Recent studies showed that ECFCs have a huge angiogenesis potential in the restoration of ischemic hearts, lungs or brains. They are also able to induce the expression of vascular related factor to promote angiogenesis in repair of limb ischemia or bone injury. Furthermore, ECFCs possess a strong homing effect for tumor, which is closely related to tumor occurrence, development and prognosis. Thus, ECFCs are a novel direction for vascular regeneration study, and may lead to ground-breaking progresses in fields of tissue regeneration and tumor.

MicroRNAs have been identified as a new class of regulatory molecules that affect many biological functions by interferring the target gene expressions. Latest studies demonstrate that microRNAs can influence many pivotal bio-processes and deeply involve in the metabolism of glucose, lipid and amino acid and biological oxidation. For glucose metabolism, microRNAs are related to insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity, glucose uptake, glycolysis, oxidation and mitochondrial function. For lipid matebolism, microRNAs can regulate the target genes related to lipid biosynthesis, catabolism and transportation. MicroRNAs can influence glutamine catabolism.

Objective:To study the antibacterial properties and in vivo and vitro biocompatibility of Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressings, and to evaluate their wound healing promoting effect through clinical application.Methods:We evaluated the comprehensive antibacterial performance of dressings in vitro using plate counting method; After co culturing the extract of Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressings with epidermal cells (HaCaT) and fibroblasts (NIH-3T3), their in-vitro biocompatibility was determined through the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) test; Further, Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressing was applied to the wound surface of diabetes mice to test the biocompatibility of the material in vivo; Through a prospective randomized controlled trial, 50 burn and trauma patients admitted to the Burn and Plastic Surgery Department of the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were selected and divided into an observation group of 25 patients and a control group of 25 patients. The observation group was treated with Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressing, and the control group was treated with silver nanoparticle antibacterial dressing. The wound healing time and wound treatment effect of the two groups were compared.Results:The Cu 2+ release concentration of Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressings detected by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was 1.3 μ g/ml, which had the effect of promoting the proliferation of HaCaT and NIH-3T3 cells (all P<0.05). The antibacterial rate of Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressing against pseudomonas aeruginosa, escherichia coli and staphylococcus aureus reached 100%. The wound healing rate [(87.39±1.83)%] of diabetes mice treated with Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressing was significantly higher than that of the control group [(58.66±3.54)%, P<0.05]. The inflammatory response of the wound tissue was relatively mild and the wound margin matrix was intact. The wound healing time of 25 patients treated with Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressing [(23.52±10.02)d] was shorter than that of the control group [(40.84±21.22)d] ( t=17.159, P<0.001), and the overall treatment response rate of patients (96%) was significantly higher than that of the control group patients (64%) (χ 2=8.472, P=0.015). Conclusions:Cu-Fe-Zn alloy microfilament dressings have good antibacterial properties and biocompatibility, and have significant therapeutic effects on promoting wound healing. They not only effectively promote wound healing but also exert anti infection effects, and are expected to be a new type of wound repair dressing.

To promote the construction of a wound repair and regeneration system with Chinese characteristics, it is necessary to follow the principle of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and integrate theory, clinical practice, and teaching. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes a holistic concept and the principle of dialectical treatment, while Western medicine focuses on etiological analysis and local treatment. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine can complement each other's advantages and improve treatment effectiveness. The key technological innovations in repairing and regenerating systems cover areas such as drug therapy, physical therapy, and the application of biomaterials. This article discusses the development potential and challenges of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the field of wound repair and regeneration, providing new ideas and methods for the development of wound repair and regeneration. It is expected to bring better medical services and treatment effects to patients undergoing repair and regeneration.

[Objective]To explore the occurrence of gasdermin D(GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis and its effect on cell proliferation,migration and tubular formation abilities of synovial vascular endothelial cells(VEC)in rheumatoid arthritis(RA).[Methods]Synovium tissues from knee joints of 22 RA patients and 18 orthopaedic arthropathies(Orth.A)patients were collected.The level of activated GSDMD-NT segment in synovium was detected by Western blot.The clinical characteristics of RA patients were compared between high and low synovial GSDMD-NT groups.The cell localization of GSDMD in RA synovium was detected by immunofluorescence staining.RA synovial fluid was added to the culture of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC)in vitro,and the level of apoptosis and expression of pyroptosis pathway proteins were detected.The effects of GSDMD on apoptosis,proliferation,migration and tubule formation of HUVEC cells were analyzed.[Results]GSDMD expression in RA synovium was significantly higher than that in Orth.A,and more severe joint destruction and higher microvascular count score were found in RA patients with high GSDMD-NT expression.Synovial VEC had positive expression of GSDMD.Stimulation with RA synovial fluid could induce GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in HUVEC,increased the secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and their abilities of proliferation,migration and tubule formation.Knockdown of GSDMD could reverse the above effects.[Conclusion]GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis of partial synovial VEC aggravates RA joint destruction through VEGF secretion that promotes proliferation,migration and angiogenesis of the remaining VEC,which may be a new target to block neovascularization and inhibit joint destruction in RA.
