BACKGROUND: Many studies focus on transforming growth factor β (TGF β) and its receptors, however, the distdbution of type Ⅰ TGF receptor (TGF-βR Ⅰ) in peripheral region of hypertrophic scars remain poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To determine the expression and distribution of TGF-βR Ⅰ and type Ⅰ collagen in the peripheral and central areas of human skin hypertrophic scar. METHODS: A total of 30 cases with human cutaneous scars admitted at the Department of Plastic Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital and Department of Mammary Gland, Head and Neck Surgery, Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from 1999 to 2002, were selected, including 20 cases with hypertrophic scar and 10 cases with normal scars. A total of 180 scars were obtained from central and peripheral areas of scars as well as normal skin tissues. The protein contents of TGF-βR1 and type Ⅰcollagen was detected by immunohistochemistry. In addition, the immunostaining positive in these samples was analyzed by semiquantitative analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared to non hypertrophic scar and normal skin tissues, the TGF-βR1 expression of hypertrophic scar was obvious greater with strong positive reaction. The TGF-β R Ⅰ content was 100% in peripheral region of hypertrophic scar, which was notably 20% greater than that of central area (P < 0.05). The content of type Ⅰ collagen was both 100% in peripheral and central areas. The differences of positive TGF-β R Ⅰ and type Ⅰ collagen had no significance between peripheral and central areas of non hypertrophic scars (P > 0.05). There were few contents of TGF-βR Ⅰ and type Ⅰ collagen in normal skin tissues. The expression of TGF-β R Ⅰ is higher in peripheral than central areas of hypertrophic scar. Therefore, the peripheral area would be emphasized in the clinic work.

In recent years, various studies and analyses related to cosmetics safety were conducted according to routine tests in Hygienic Standard of Cosmetics (2007), and the eligible rates of tested cosmetics were high. But the other prohibited and limited use components, such as antibiotics were analyzed rarely, and meanwhile some kinds of cosmetic related dermatitis cases appeared dramatically. Several dermatitis, especially contact dermatitis and hormone dependent dermatitis symptoms were not contained in Diagnostic Criteria and Principles of Management of Skin Diseases Induced by Cosmetics-General Guideline, GB 17149.1—1997. So it indicated the standard, GB 17149.1—1997 should be revised and some prohibited and limited use components such as hormone and antibiotic testing should be appended to the safety analysis of cosmetics.

Objective Differentiation of breast fibroadenoma from breast cancer is of great importance. The purpose of the ar-ticle was to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) in the differentiation of breast fibroadenoma from breast cancer in DCE-TIC ( dynamic contrast enchancement-time intensity curve) platform type ( typeⅡ) . Methods Between March 2014 and May 2016, 64 patients were included in our study, 19 patients with breast fibroadenoma and 45 patients with breast cancer. All the patients underwent DCE-MRI ( dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging) examination before operation. Morpho-logic characteristics, hemodynamic characteristics, EER ( early enhancement rate) and ADC ( apparent diffusion coefficient) values were calculated and statistically compared. Results Among 19 cases of breast fibroadenoma, 9 cases were round or ovoid, 8 cases are lobulated, 2 cases were irregular, 15 cases with clear boundary, 14 cases in mammary gland vascular enlargement, 2 cases of slowinflows, 4 cases of moderate inflows, 13 cases of rapid inflows, and the average ADC value was ( 1. 47 ± 0. 38) × 10-3 mm2/s. Low signal separation present in 11 lesions of fibroadenoma. Among the 45 cases of breast cancer, 17 cases were round or ovoid, 7 cases were lobulat-ed, 21 cases were irregular, 11 cases with clear boundary, 38 cases of mammary gland vascular enlargement, 1 case of slow inflows, 5 ca-ses of moderate inflows, 39 cases of rapid inflows, and the averageADC values was (0.98±0.40)×10-3mm2/s. The shape, (χ2=9.176), margin (χ2=16.452), EER(χ2=18.489) and ADC between breast fibroadenoma and breast cancer were of significantly difference. No significant difference was found in the increased and enlarged blood vessels. The success of ADC values in differentation of breast fibroadenoma from breast cancer was statistically significant( P<0.001), and the area under the curve(AUC)of the ROC, sensitivity and specificity of VE were 94.7% and 71.1%. Conclusion Breast fibroadenoma are in fast inflows in the early phase on the DCE-MRI, and there are differences in morphologic characteristics and mass enhancement ways between patients with breast fibroadenoma and breast cancer. Morphologic characteristics combined with inter-nal low signal separation contribute to the differentiation of breast fibroadenoma from breast cancer.

Objective To prepare an active anti-tumor component, compound K (C-K), from saponins in leaves of Panax notoginseng (SLPN) using immobilized β-glucanase. Methods Two entrapments, alginate gel-1 (Alg 1) and alginate gel-2 (Alg 2), were evaluated for their ability to immobilize β-glucanase. The amount and purity of C-K obtained from the transformation process were analyzed by HPLC, and the immobilizing parameters were optimized. Results β-Glucanase can be immobilized and reused with either of the entrapment. However, using AIg 1 resulted in higher enzyme activity than Alg 2. The optimal concentration of the immobilized enzyme was 10%; The optimal crosslinking time was 4-6 h; and the optimal concentration of the crosslinking agent was 6%-7%. Conclusion Immobilized β-glucanase shows sustained enzyme activity, good ethanol tolerance, and was reusable for the preparation of C-K from SLPN.

BACKGROUND: Mild hypothermia (28-35 ℃) is becoming one of the promising methods in treating acute ischemic stroke. Hypothermia can effectively lessen brain edema, which is one of its neuroprotective roles.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of mild hypothermia on brain water content and aquaporin-4 (AQP4) expression level following global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats, so as to study the neuroprotective mechanisms of mild hypothermia.DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial.SETTING: Neurobiological Laboratory of Xuzhou Medical College.MATERIALS: 110 healthy male SD rats with body mass 250-300 g, provided by the Animal Center of Xuzhou Medical College, No. SYNK (Jiangsu) 2002-0079, were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups by SPSS 11.0software: ①sham-operated group (n=10);②normothermiagroup (n=50); ③mild hypothermia group (33 ℃, n=50). Normothermia group and mild hypothermia group were subdivided into five reperfusion subgroups for 6 hours, 1, 2, 3 and 7 days, respectively with 10 rats in each subgroup,in which 5 rats were used for measurement of brain water content, and others for HE staining and immunohistochemistry staining.METHODS: The models of global cerebral ischemia were established in the normothermia group and mild hypothermia group by four-vessel occlusion (4-VO) method with ischemia for 15 minutes as Pulsinelli described.The rats in the sham-operated group were only underwent the electrocauterization of bilateral vertebral arteries and the isolation of common carotid arteries except for occlusion of common carotid arteries. Twenty-four hours later, the rats were decapitated to take out the brains. The brains of rats in the normothermia group and mild hypothermia group were taken out to make sections for HE staining and immunohistochemistry staining, and the dynamic change of pathology of the brain tissue and AQP4 expression level were observed after reperfusion for 6 hours, 1, 2, 3 and 7 days, respectively. The brain wet-to-dry weight measurement was used to measure the brain water content of the rats at each time point of each group.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①The pathologic changes of brain tissues of rats in the normothermia group and mild hypothermia group. ②The brain water content and the AQP4 expression level of all rats at each time point.RESULTS: ①After 6 hours of reperfusion, brain edema appeared in the normothermia group including amplification of periyascular spaces and intercellular spaces, rarefaction of brain tissues, etc, which got worst after 2 days of reperfusion; the phenomenon of brain edema of the rats in the mild hypothermia group at each time point was relatively lighter than the normothermia group. ②Brain water content of the normothermia group and mild hypothermia group was increased after 6 hours of reperfusion and reached peak at the 2nd day; Although decreased at the 7th day, it was still higher than the sham-operated group. The brain water content of the mild hypothermia group at each time point was less than the normothermia group (values after 6 hour and 7 day, P < 0.01, the rest groups P < 0.05).③AQP4 expression level of the normothermia group and mild hypothermia group was increased after 6 hours of reperfusion and reached peak at the 2nd day. Although decreased at the 7th day, it was still higher than the sham-operated group.The AQP4 expression level of the mild hypothermia group at each time point was lower than the normothermia group (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION:The change tendency of AQP4 level is parallel to that of brain water content after ischemia reperfusion, which indicates that the upregulation of AQP4 expression is one of molecular mechanisms for the for mation of ischemicbrain edema. Mild hypothermia can release ischemic brain edema by inhibiting AQP4 expression, which is one of its mechanisms.
