1.Type 2 inflammatory responses in atopic dermatitis
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2021;54(1):84-88
Studies have shown that the type 2 inflammatory response and related cytokines such as interleukin-4 and -13, play a key role in atopic dermatitis (AD) . Th2 cells and type 2 cytokines are the core factors in the type 2 inflammatory response, which is mainly involved in the pathogenesis of AD through 3 pathways: aggravating skin barrier defects; activating and strengthening the itching response; pathologically reprograming regulatory T cells into Th2-like regulatory T cells to amplify the type 2 inflammatory response. This review explores the relationship between the type 2 inflammatory response and AD, aiming to help optimize treatment regimens and provide new treatment options for patients with AD.

Objective:To explore the mechanisms by which DNA methylation regulates miR-126 and its host gene EGFL7 in CD4+T cells from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
Methods:We analyzed the expression and the DNA methylation status within promoter region of EGFL7 and miR-126 by real-time qPCR and bisulifte genomic sequencing analysis.
Results:miR-126 and EGFL7 mRNA expression was upregulated in CD4+T cells from SLE compared with that from healthy controls (P<0.01). EGFL7 mRNA level was positively correlated with miR-126 expression in CD4+T cells from SLE (r=0.538, P=0.015). The average methylation level of EGFL7 promoter in CD4+T cells from SLE was lower than that from healthy controls (P<0.05).
Conclusion:hTe upregulation of miR-126 and its host gene EGFL7 expression in CD4+T cells from SLE is associated with the hypomethylation of the EGFL7 promoter.

Objective To investigate the effect of methylguanidine and 1-methylhydantoin on cells cytotoxicity, apoptosis in human renal tubular epithelial cell line (HK-2). Methods Human PTEC cell line HK-2 was used in this study. HK-2 was cultured and divided into 3 groups: Norma1 control group (A), methylguanidine group(B) and 1-methylhydantoin group (C). The cell inhibitory rate of HK-2 was detected by MTT method. The cytotoxicity of methylguanidine to HK-2 was determined by NAG release test. Cell apoptosis was evaluated by using Hoechst stain and FACS with Annexin-V/PI. Results The OD value and NAG concentration of creatinine, methylguanidine and 1-methylhydantoin group were compared with normal control group. OD value decreased and NAG concentration significantly increased(0.188±0.011, 0.176±0.010 vs 0.545±0.021, F=1557.74, P<0.01; 20.488±0.473, 22.225±0.565 vs 5.125±0.198, F=3848.22, P<0.01). By Hoechst stain, pycnosis and apoptotic body could be found when HK-2 was cultivated in methylguanidine 1-methylhydantoin group. In methylguanidine, 1-methylhydantoin group apoptotic HK-2 apparently increased, compared with that in control group (18.23±1.1581, 20.22±1.1433 vs 2.473±0.321, F=526.06, P<0.01). Compared with group B, the OD value in group C decreased significantly (0.176±0.010 vs 0.188±0.011,t=2.26, P<0.05), NAG concentration increased significantly (22.225±0.565 vs 20.488±0.473,t=-6.67, P<0.01), and apoptotic rate in-creased significantly (20.22±1.1433 vs 18.23±1.1581,t=-2.762, P<0.05). Conclusions 1-methylhydantoin has more powerful cytotoxic effect to renal tubular epithelial cells than that of Methylguanidine.

Objective To investigate the effect of hyperthermia and mild hypothermia on permeability of blood-brain barrier(BBB),activity of matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and expression of laminin in rats with severe traumatic brain injury(TBI)so as to explore the mechanism of hyperthermia and mild hypothermia affecting permeability of BBB. Methods A total of 72 healthy adult SpragueDawley rats were randomly divided into four groups,ie,sham operation group(SO group),TBI group,hyperthermia group(HT group)and mild hypothermia group(MH group).The rats were sacrificed at 24hours and the samples of injured brain tissues collected to detect the content of Evans blue(EB),activity of MMP-9 and expression of laminin. Results The content of EB and activity of MMP-9 in HT group were more significantly increased compared with those in TBI group(P<0.05),while the expression of laminin in HT group Was more significantly decreased than that in TBI group(P<0.05).However,the content of EB and activity of MMP-9 in MH group were significantly lower than those in TBI group(P<0.05),while the expression of laminin in MH group was significantly higher than that in TBI group(P<0.05). Conclusions The high activity of MMP-9 can.degrade laminin and increase permeability of BBB after TBI.After TBI,hyperthermia can increase permeability of BBB while mild hypothermia does on the contrary,which may be related to their different roles in changing activity of MMP-9.
