Objective To discuss the effect of small needle knife therapy on collagensⅠ and Ⅲ in the hypertrophic scar tissues that was subcutaneously transplanted into nude mice. Methods Six samples of human hypertrophic scar tissues without cuticle were subcutaneously transplanted into the back of 24 nude mice to create the animal models of hypertrophic scar. Ten days after of the operation,the mice were divided into control,0.1 mg/ml triamcinolone,0.2 mg/ml triamcinolone,and small needle-knife groups with 6 mice in each. Specimens of the scar tissues were collected in 14 days for immunohistochemistry to detect the collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ. Results In all the groups,collagens Ⅰand Ⅲ distributed extensively in the cytoplasm of fibroblast and tissues. Image analysis showed that the concentration of collagens Ⅰand Ⅲ in 0.1 mg/ml and 0.2 mg/ml triamcinolone groups were significantly lower than those in the control (0.09?0.03,0.11?0.05 and 0.12?0.02,0.11?0.01 vs. 0.17?0.04,0.19?0.03,P0.05). Conclusions Small needle-knife therapy can reduce the concentration of collagens Ⅰand Ⅲ in transplanted hypertrophic scar tissues in nude mice.
