Objective To investigate the cause of excessive collagen accumulation in keloid tissue. Methods The ultrastructure of keloid was observed by transmission electron microscope. New formed collagen in keloid was localized with ABC immunohistochemical staining. Type I procollagen mRNA level in keloid tissue was determined by dot blot hybridization using human pro-al (I)collagenspecific cDNA probe. Results Numerous fibroblasts with abundant, well developed rough endoplasmic reticulum were exhibited in the ultrastructure of keloid. The type I procollagen mRNA levels were significantly increased in kreloid tissue. Immunohistochemical staining showed increased expression of new formed, type I procollagen in keloid tissue. Conclusion the fibroblasts are activated in collagen synthesis in active keloid. The enhanced collagen synthesis by fibroblasts is a critical factor leading to the overabundant collagen accumulation in keloid.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics and regulations of antibacterials-induced adverse drug reactions (ADR) in our hospital,and to provide reference for promoting rational drug use. METHODS:233 patients with antibacterials-in-duced ADR in our hospital from Oct. 2013 to Jun. 2015 were selected and analyzed statistically according to patient's age and gen-der,route of administration,the type of antibacterials,occurrence time,organs/systems involved in ADR,etc. RESULTS:There were a large number of ADR in patients age ≤18 and ≥70 years,accounting for 19.3% and 18.5%;the male was more than the female;the incidence of ADR induced by intravenous route was the highest,accounting for 94.0%. Most of ADR was caused by cephalosporins,accounting for 33.9%;ADR often occurred within 1 d after medication,accounting for 63.9%;lesion of skin and its appendants injury was main ADR,accounting for 39.3%. CONCLUSIONS:Adhere to theclear indications,a detailed inqui-ry about allergy history before drug use,right dose,suitable route of administration and course,and timely ADR disposal can re-duce the damage caused by ADR.

In this paper, the popular domestic varieties and quality standard of Scrophulariaceae plants used in Tibetan medicine were analyzed. The results showed that there were 11 genera and 99 species (including varieties), as well as 28 medicinal materials varieties of Scrophulariaceae plants were recorded in the relevant literatures. In relevant Tibetan standards arid literatures, there are great differences in varieties, sources, parts, and efficacies of medicinal plant. Among them, about 41.4% (including 41 species) of endemic plants, about 15.2% (including 15 species) of the original plants have medicinal standard legal records, except the medicinal materials of Scrophalaria ningpoensis, Lagotis brevituba, Picrorhiza scrophulariiflora, Veronica eriogyne general, most varieties have not completed quality standard. Consequently it is necessary to reinforce the herbal textual, resources and the use present situation investigation, the effects of the species resources material foundation and biological activity, quality standard, specification the medical terms of the plants, and promote Tibetan medicinal vareties-terminologies-sources such as the criterion and quality standard system for enriching the varieties of Tibetan medicinal materials and Chinese medicinal resources.

In this paper, the domestic varieties and quality standard of Leguminosae medicinal plants used in Tibetan medicine were analyzed. The results showed that there were 36 genera and 142 species (including varieties), as well as 64 medicinal materials varieties of Leguminosae plants were recorded in relevant literatures. In relevant Tibetan standards and literatures, there are great differences in varieties, sources, used parts, and efficacy of medicinal plants. Among them, about 38.0% (including 54 species) of the endemic plants, about 25.4% (including 36 species) of the original plants have medicinal standard legal records, except 9 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine general quality standard more fairly completed, the most varieties have only description about characters, identification, etc. Therefore it is necessary to reinforce study for the herbal textual, resources and the use present situation, chemical components and biological activity, quality standard, medicinal terms specification, to promote establishment of quality standard system for variety-terminologies-sources of Tibetan medicinal plants.

In this paper, an analysis was made on the varieties and standards of labiatae medicinal plants used in Tibetan medicine. The results showed 71 species of labiatae plants in 21 genera (including varieties) recorded in relevant literatures, involving 44 varieties of medicinal materials. Specifically, seven species (9.9%) were intersected with traditional Chinese medicines (TCM), 19 varieties (43%) were recorded in Chinese medicinal material standards at all levels, and 27 species (38%) were source plants. In Tibetan medicine standards and literatures, there are great differences between Tibetan names and translated Chinese names and among varieties of source plants. Apart from a few of varieties intersected with traditional Chinese medicines had complete standards and regulations in Chinese Pharmacopoeia, most of species only had characters, microscopic, physical and chemical identifications in Standards Issued by Ministry of Health-Tibetan Medicine, Tibetan Medicine Standard and local standards. Therefore, the Tibetan medicinal material variety-source specification and quality standard system shall be promoted on the basis of literatures research, investigations for resources and current applications and modern pharmaceutical studies.

Objective To investigate the effect of lentivirus-mediated siRNA interference of USP39 on proliferation and migration of mice vascular smooth muscle cell in vitro.Methods Five siRNAs of siControl, siRNAUSP39-70, siRNAUSP39-71, siRNAUSP39-72 and siRNAUSP39-73 were designed and sythezied,mice VSMCs were infected with the lentivirus for delivering siRNAUSP39-73, and the stably transfected cells were selected by puromycin.The interference efficiency of siRNAUSP39-73 was assessed with Western blot.The effect of USP39 interference on the proliferation of VSMCs was determined by cells counting and MTT assay.Transwell assay was used to detect the migration of VSMCs.Results Recombinant lentiviral vector siRNAUSP39-73 was successfully transfected into mice VSMCs.Comparing with siControl group and Normal group, USP39 protein level of siRNAUSP39-73 VSMCs were decreased(P<0.05), and the proliferation and migration ability were all inhibited(P<0.05).Conclusion Targeted down-regulation of USP39 expression can inhibit the proliferation and migration of mice VSMCs in vitro.
