Geographic distribution of Polyporus umbellatus was predicted by using distribution records. Based on 42 distribution records from 12 provinces and bioclimatic data (1950-2000), georaphic distribution of P. umbellatus was modeled using Maxent. The results showed thatthe Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis method was used to assess the accuracy of MAXENT model and the area under ROC curve (AUC) value of MAXENT was 0. 960 which suggested that the result of assessment was dependable. The geographic distribution pattern of were divided into three distribution block based on distribution values of 0.5-0.8: small area of Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning and Hebei province, the board area of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, the southeast area of Tibet and the most area of Shanxi and Shannxi, the southeast board area of Shannxi, Gansu and Ningxia. Jackknife Test showed that average precipitation in warm seasons had the greatest contribution to the distribution gain of P. umbellatus, followed by mean temperature of driest quarter and annual mean temperature. The object suggests the potential distribution areasof P. umbellatus which is useful for the habitat conservation and introduction of P. umbellatus.

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 effects of IFNα-2b on keloid fibroblasts in cell prolifera-tion, apoptosis, expression of hTERT and bcl-2 mRNA and to explore its anti-keloid mechanism. Methods Primary cultures of dermal fibroblasts derived from 8 keloid and 8 normal skin samples were established, strains of fibroblasts at passages 3 to 4 were used in this study. Keloid and normal skin fibroblasts in culture medium in vitro were given IFNα-2b and were obsevered in different time. The proliferation of the fibroblasts was measured by MTT assay, the apoptosis was analysed by flow cytometry(FCM), and the expression of hTERT and bcl-2 mRNA were obsevered by semi-qnantitativere verse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The data were analyzed by statistical software (SPSS11. 5). Results IFNα-2b could inhibit the growth of keloid and nomal skin fibroblasts. The suppression of keloid and nomal skin fibroblasts was time-dependent. After the effect of 10 000 U/ml INFα-2b on cultured fibroblast of keloid and normal skin,the fibroblasts apoptosis was induced and the expression of hTERT and bcl-2 mRNA was lower than that of controlled group . The result was significantly different between control group and treatment group and was related with the treatment time of INFα-2b (P<0.01). Conclusions As a negative regulatory factor,interferon α-2b can suppress growth and proliferation of keloid fibroblasts and induce apoptosis. Decreasing the telomerase activity of keloid fibroblasts may be one of the most important mechamisms. That IFNa-2b inhibited telomerase activity in keloid fibroblasts is an important pathway that may play a key role in the anti- keloid therapy.
