Objective To study the effect of neuropeptide on migration of epidermal stem cells in wound repair. Methods 90 new born rats (3~4d old) were randomly divided into three groups: SP group, capsaicin group, and normal group. BrdU labeling, combined with specific protein markers of epidermal stem cells, K19 and ?1 integrin, were used to identify epidermal stem cells. The migration of epidermal stem cells was observed in full thickness skin wound on back on 21 days after injury. Substance P was applied to the skin wound after injury in SP group. The status of migration of epidermal stem cells in SP group was compared with that in capsaicin group, in which capsaicin was injected to destroy sensory neuron before skin injury, and with normal group, in which the skin wound was not treated with any medication. Results Wounds of rats in SP group were healed 18 days after injury. It was shortened by three days compared with normal group. Only 25.54% of wound area was healed in capsaicin group on day 18. There were many epidermal stem cells in the edge of the wound and granulation tissue in Group SP. Only a small number of epidermal stem cells were seen in capsaicin group, where SP release was blocked by chemical destruction of sensory neurons, in the wound edge, but not in granulation tissue. The amount of epidermal stem cells as seen in the wound edge, but not in granulation tissue, in normal group was less than in the SP group but more than in capsaicin group. Conclusions SP obviously promotes wound healing and shortens the healing period. SP can induce epidermal stem cells to migrate into the skin wound edge and granulation tissue.

Objective A dog model of blast-burn combined injuries followed by immersion in seawater was reproduced in dog to study hemodynamic responses and their mechanism. Methods The dogs which were exposed to blast injuries produced by primer explosion and 10% second degree burn were randomly divided into seawater immersion group and blast-burn only group. The dogs in immersion group were immersed in seawater under anesthesia for 4 hours. The hemodynamics of the dogs was monitored, and blood samples were collected to assay malondialdehyde (MDA), and cultured for bacteria. After the above procedures were completed, the pathological changes in the dogs′ hearts and lungs were observed. The dogs in blast-burn group underwent the same protocol in immersion group except immersion. Results The body temperature (T), cardiac index (CI), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR) in dogs in the immersion group were remarkably decreased, while the mean pulmonary artery pressure (MPAAP), systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), and pulmonary vascular resistance index (PVRI) were markedly increased compared with those in blast-burn group. These obvious hemo dynamic disorders occurred during 3h to 6h after the dogs leaving seawater. Plasma MDA level was negatively correlated with CI. The interval between positive blood calture for intestinal bacteria and injury was shorter in immersion group than that of blast-burn group. The gross and histopathological changes in dogs′ hearts and lungs in immersion group injuries were more severe in degree than in blast-burn group. Conclusions Seawater immersion markedly aggravates the hemodynamic disorders in dogs having had blast-burn combined injury. The changes became obvious during 3h to 6h after leaving seawater. The aggravating effect might be related with declination of body temperature, inflammatory response and lipid peroxidation.

AIM: To study the phosphatidylinositol metabolism of vascular endothelial cells exposed to projectile's pressure wave METHODS: The cultured endothelial cells were exposed to bullet's pressure wave as experimental model. The intracellular inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate(IP_3), intracellular free calcium ([Ca 2+ ]i), protein kinase C(PKC) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities in cultural medium were assayed after the cultured cells exposed to bullet's pressure wave. After blocking phosphatidylinositol metabolism with neomycin, the above biochemical parameters of cells exposed to bullet's pressure wave were also measured. RESULTS: Bullet's pressure wave induced increase in the intracellular IP_3, [Ca 2+ ]i, and PKC activity obviously. The change of LDH activity paralleled with above biochemical changes. Blocking phosphatidylinositol metabolism partially inhibited these changes. CONCLUSION: Bullet's pressure wave may activate phosphatidylinositol metabolism, which may trigger the injury to the endothelial cells and lead to leakage of plasmatic LDH.

Objective To study the effect of sensory nerves on the expression of epidermal growth factor(EGF), basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) by fibroblasts in the granulation tissues in skin wound healing. Methods In vivo and in vitro studies were conducted. Fifty wistar rats were randomly divided into capsaicin group and control group. The rats in the capsaicin group were subcutaneously injected with neurotoxin dose of capsaicin(50 mg/kg for 3 days) to chemically destroy the sensory nerves. Full thickness skin incisive wound was made on the rat′s back on 8th day after last injection. The contents of substance P(SP), which was mainly released from afferent sensory nerve terminal, and EGF, bFGF in granulation tissue of skin lesion were determined using immunohistochemistry combined with computerized imaging analysis on 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th days after the incision. In the control group no capsaicin was injected. In the in vitro study the fibroblasts from granulation tissue of rats were cultured with different doses of SP(10-9 ~ 10-5 mol/L), and the protein expression of EGF, bFGF by cultured fibroblasts was determined using Western blot. Results Immunoreactive SP was not only found around the small blood vessels and in the intercellular space, but also in the cytoplasm of fibroblasts in granulation tissue. SP content and the protein expression of EGF, bFGF in granulation tissue decreased in the capsaicin group, compared with those in the control group, which indicated that SP(10-7 mol/L) added into the culture medium for fibroblasts could upregulate the levels of EGF, bFGF expression. Conclusions Protein expression of EGF and bFGF by fibroblasts in granulation tissue in skin wound healing might be related with the SP released from sensory nerves.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of linezolid in empirical treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus (MRS) pneumonia. Methods One hundred and thirty-five hospitalized patients with MSR pneumonia receiving linezolid from April 2009 to October 2010 were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study, and all subjects were assigned to two groups: 75 cases with empirical treatment (linezolid 0. 6 g by infusion q12h at admission) , and 60 cases with objective treatment (linezolid after the sputum culture). The severity score, clinical effect and adverse effect were observed, and the therapeutic effects in patients with high risk factors were especially evaluated. SPSS13.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results The scores were decreased significantly after finishing therapeutic causes for 3 and 7 days in both groups (tempirical =12.29 and 16.53, tobjective =9.36 and 11.49, P<0. 05). There were significant differences in severity scores after 3 and 7 days between empirical and objective treatment groups (t =2. 64 and 3. 08, P < 0. 01). There were significant differences in absorption time, length of ICU and total hospital stay between two groups (t =6. 61 , 4. 39 and 10. 25, P <0. 05). In empirical and objective group, the effective rates were 88.0% (66/75) and 83.3% (50/60) (x2 = 0.60, P > 0.05 ). In the patients with high risk factors, the effective rates of two groups were 86. 8% (33/38) and 63. 6% (14/22) , and the difference was significant (x2 =4.42, P<0.05). The rate of adverse effects were 6.7% (5/75) in empirical group and 5.0% (3/60) in objective group, and the difference was not significant (x2 =0. 17, P > 0. 05). Conclusion Linezolid can be used as empirical treatment for MRS pneumonia with rapid symptoms relieve and high efficacy, especially for patients with high risk.

AIM: To study the effects of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) on the transcriptional activity of nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells. METHODS: Rat pulmonary micro-vascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) were cultured by lung tissue block pasted methods, and identified immunocytochemically using Ⅷ factor-related antigen. The cells were treated with different doses TNF-α (prepared in serum-free medium) for 4 h. Subcellular localization and levels of Nrf2 in PMVECs were observed with immunocytochemical methods. Nuclear extract were obtained to assayed transcriptional activity of Nrf2 with EMSA. Total RNA were isolated to assay the mRNA expression of Nrf2 by RT-PCR. RESULTS: The protein level of Nrf2 in the nuclei and transcriptional activity increased dose-dependently in PMVECs after treated with TNF-α at concentrations of 2.5, 5.0 or 10.0 μg/L. However, the protein level of Nrf2 in nuclei and transcriptional activity decreased dose-dependently in PMVECs after treated with TNF-α at concentrations of 20 or 40 μg/L. No different mRNA expression of Nrf2 in PMVECs treated with TNF-α at all concentration above was observed. CONCLUSION: Transcriptional activity of Nrf2 increases in PMVECs treated with low or moderate doses of TNF-α and decreases in PMVECs treated with high doses of TNF-α.
