Objective To investigate clinical and pathological characteristics of acquired digital fibrokeratoma (ADF).Methods Clinical data were collected from 12 patients with ADF,and their clinical manifestations,histopathological features,treatment and prognosis were analyzed retrospectively.Results The mean age at onset of ADF was 39.75 ± 17.69 years (range,17-64.5 years),and the average disease duration was 4.83 ± 5.77 years (range,0.5-20 years).The ratio of male to female was 1.4:1.Most skin.lesions were polymorphic,and mainly involved fingers,toes and nail grooves.Sometimes non-extremity sites are also involved.Histopathological examination of skin lesions showed epidermal hyperkeratosis,acanthosis and broadened dendroid rete ridges.The dermis consisted of mature collagen bundles,fibroblasts and a large number of dilated capillaries.The characteristic manifestation was that most collagen bundles were vertical to the epidermis.Conclusions ADF,a rare benign fibrous tumor with unknown etiology,usually occurs in adults as a solitary lesion on fingers or toes,sometimes in non-extremity sites.Surgery and laser therapy are common treatments for ADF with low recurrence rate.

Objective To study the mechanism of hypoxia inducing factor-1α(HIF-1α)pathway in establishment of hypoxia inducing low endometrial receptivity.Methods RL95-2 cell lines.the ideal model of study ER,were cultured in hypoxia condition induced by CoCl2,and the expression of mRNA and protein of HIF-1α and tumor necrosis factor like weak inducer of apoptosis(TWEAK)were measured by reverse transcription-PCR and western blot. The apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow eytometry.Then the mechanism confirmed by comparing the two factors in endometrium and the ultra-appearance of inflammatory reaction and apoptosis between recurrent spontaneous abortion women and control women.Results (1)On difierent time point(0,12,24,48 hour),mRNA expression of HIF-1α were 0.272±0.010,0.354±0.020,0.591±0.020.0.890±0.020,while the expression of TWEAK were 0.104±0.010,0.510±0.020,1.021±0. 020, 1. 237 +0. 040, respectively, the expression level between 12, 24, 48 and 0 hour all showed significant differences (P＜0. 05 ). (2) Protein expression of HIF-1α were 0. 853 +0. 010, 0. 931 ±0. 030,1. 124±0.010, 1.317±0.0 20 respectively, while was 0.042±0.010, 0.091 ±0.010, 0. 131±0.020,0. 205 ±0. 030 in TWEAK expression, the different level were statistically significant ( P＜0. 05 ). ( 3 )With longer culture under hypoxia, the cell apoptosis rate increased obviously. The apoptosis rate of each time point were ( 3.2±1.4 ) %, ( 16. 2 ±3.2 ) %, ( 26. 3±3.5 ) %, ( 31.8±3.5 )%, the differences between 12, 24, 48 and 0 hour had significance (P ＜0. 05). (4) The positive rate of HIF-1α stained in epithelium cells and stroma cells of test group were 32. 3%, 8.4% and 16. 7%, 7. 3% in control group. The positive rate of TWEAK were 28. 3%, 3.9% in recurrent spontaneous abortion group and 11.6%, 2. 7% in control group ( P ＜0. 05 ). The ultra-appearance of inflammatory cell infiltrated and apoptosis were obvious in test group. Conclusions Cell inflammation reaction and apoptosis induced by HIF-1α pathway may participate the mechanism of hypoxia inducing low endometrial receptivity. HIF-1α might become a novel target for improving poor endometrial receptivity.

Objective To purify and identif y Platanus acerifoli wild pollen. Methods We carried out intracutaneous test with Platanus pollen extract in 30 patients with allergic as thma who visited our hospital from March to May 2003. Seven subjects who had bee n diagnosed as having Platanus pollen-induced asthma were enrolled. Platanus po llen proteins were separated by gel filtration with Sephadex-G-100. To charact erize allergenic components, Platanus pollen extract was analyzed by means of so dium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by immunoblotti ng. Results To purity the pollen we separated Platanus poll en extract in a first purification step by using gel filtration with Sephadex G -100. Two elution peaks were observed. Twelve percent SDS-PAGE analysis showed more than 10 protein bands whose molecular mass (Mr) ranged from 16 ku to 71 ku. Six bands abundant with protein at 71, 50, 35, 39, 22 and 16 ku were observed. On SDS-PAGE, the proteins of the first peak whose Mr we re 71, 50, 35, 39, and 22 ku and that of the second peak was 16 ku. SDS-PAGE and IgG-immunoblotting analysis with seven sera showed 4 IgG-binding component s whose Mr was 50, 39, 22 and 16 ku. The protein bands whose Mr was 50 ku and 22 ku had the highest binding capacity. Conclusion The strongest activity exists in the first peak which can be the major sensiti zing components and there is mild allergic activity in the second peak which is the minor sensitizing components.

AIM To evaluate the effect of METHODS 2 month-old mice were fed routinelycistanche desertica polysacchrides(CDP) on the ni- for 11 mounths to establish the model of naturallytric oxids(NO) ,superoxide dismutase(SOD) in se- aging mice. The cistanche desertica polysacchridesrum and apoptosis of lung cell in aging mice. 25, 50, 100 mg ?kg~' were administrated respec- lively to the mice po. then investigated the concentration of NO, SOD and the morphological changes of apoptosis by fluoromicroscope. RESULTS Aging could induce the lung cell apoptosis, decrease the level of SOD, and increase the level of NO as well. The cistanche desertica polysacchrides signif- icantly ameliorated the lung cell apoptosis; decreased the level of NO, improved the activity of SOD. CONCLUSION Cistanche desertica polysac-chrides have ameliorating and postponing effects on the regressive changes in the lung of aging mice.

Aim To evaluate the pharmacological effects of sodi um ferulate on asthmatic guinea pigs. Methods Guinea pigs were sensit ized by ovalbumin. Two weeks later,ment of Sodium ferulate were injected every d ay five minutes before inhale, the guinea pigs were killed 7 days later. Granul ocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-5(IL-5), Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) in serum were measured by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and fluoroimmunoassay method, the e osinophils (EOSs) were counted and the phosphodiesterase (PDE) in the bronchoalv eolar lavage fluid(BALF) were determined by inverse high-performance liquid chr omatography (HPLC) method. Result After treatment with sodium f erulate for one week at the dose of 25,50,100 mg?kg -1 respectively, th e GM-CSF, IL-4, IL-5 contents were inhibited as compared with the untreated g roup in a dose dependent manner.The count of eosinophil was decreased.The activi ty of PDE of cell in BALF and the level of ECP were decreased.Conclusion Sodium ferulate attenuates the GM-CSF, IL-4, IL-5 in serum and eosi nophils and the activity of PDE and ECP and has protective effect in asthmatic g uinea pig.

Objective To explore the changes of serum nitric oxide(NO) and trace element Zinc in children with pneumonia and their clinical significance.Methods The observing group contained 48 patients with pneumonia in our hospital from Oct.2005 to May 2006,who were collected 3 mL of blood sample on empty stomach on the second day.Twenty-six of them had been collected serum during their convalescence stage.The control group contained 20 children,who were healthy in the same stage.The levels of NO of 48 pneumonia,26 convalescence stage(recovery group) and 20 healthy patients were determined by UV-2100 spectrophotometer.The Zinc in serum was determined by P-E503-mode atomic absorption spectrophotometric analysis antigenic in those patients.Blood viscosity was measured and analyzed with the statistic analysis SPSS 10.0 software.Results The levels of NO in pneumonia children[(57.76?19.41) ?mol/L] were significantly higher than that in control group [(25.09?5.51) ?mol/L] and recovery group[(30.08?8.05) ?mol/L](P_a
