7-year-program clinical medicine is a major that fuses master with bachelor degree education and has higher demand in the integrated ability training.It is in 2002 that Southeast University first admitted students of this major,which,therefore,is brand new challenge to every educators,including EMP teachers.Thus,we initiated teaching innovation and put it into practice,which proved beneficial.

Objective To update the knowledge of contact allergy to topical corticosteroids.Methods A total Of 1,822 patients,who Sufiered from inflammatory skin disorders but did not respond well to topical corticosteroids,were enrolled into this study.Patch test was performed on these subjects with corticosteroid allergens,following the standardized rocedures ecommended by the International Contact Dermatitis Research Group(ICDRG).Results Of all patients,78(4.28%)had positive patch test.Among the 78 patients,33 were males,45 females,and most were young or middle-aged.During 96-168 hours after the removal of patches,positive results Were observed in 42.31%(33/78)of the patients.Twenty eight patients had anaphy lactic reaction induced by hydrocortisone butyrate,25 by dexamethasone sodium phosphate,and 17 by triam cinolone acetonide.A correlation Between sensitizing glucocorticoids detected by patch testing and adminis trated drugs in clinic was found in 74 cases.ConclusionsContact allergy caused by topical corticosteroids is not rare,and more attention should be paid to this issue in the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders.

Objective: To observe the effect of acupuncture-moxibustion on the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and suppressor of cytokine signaling-2 (SOCS2) in colonic mucosa of rat models of ulcerative colitis (UC), and explore the mechanism of acupuncture- moxibustion therapy in treating UC. Methods: The rats were randomized into a normal control (NC) group, a model control (MC) group, an herb-partitioned moxibustion (HPM) group and an electroacupuncture (EA) group, 8 in each group. The rat models of UC were established by immunological methods combined with local stimulation. The rats in the HPM and EA groups were given herb-partitioned moxibustion and electroacupuncture treatments respectively, once every day, lasting for 14 d. The morphological variations of rat's colonic mucosa were observed under light microscope; the colonic mucosal mucin was detected by PAS-AB and HID-AB staining methods; the expression of IGF-1 and SOCS2 was assayed by the immunohistochemical method. Results: In the rat models of UC, ulceration and inflammation of the colon were revealed by light microscope. The concentration of colonic mucosal mucin was reduced (P<0.01), while the expression of IGF-1 had an increase (P<0.01), and the expression of SOCS2 was reduced (P<0.01). After HPM or EA treatment, the pathological injuries of colonic mucosa had improved, the concentration of mucin increased (P<0.01), the expression of IGF-1 decreased (P<0.01), and the expression of SOCS2 increased (P<0.01). Conclusion: The secretion of mucosal mucin in rat UC decreased, the expression of IGF-1 was significantly higher, while the expression of SOCS2 was remarkably lower; both HPM and EA can help improve the damage of colonic mucosa in rat UC, and modulate the secretion of mucin, as well as regulate the expression of IGF-1 and SOCS2 in the colonic mucosa.

Objective To explore the role of p16 gene methylation in fibroblasts in the occurrence and development of keloid.Methods Skin tissue specimens were resected from the lesions of patients with keloid and normal skin of healthy human controls.Fibroblasts were isolated from these tissue specimens and subjected a primary culture.An immunohistochemical analysis was performed to measure the expression of p16 protein in tissue specimens,real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR to determine the mRNA expression level (expressed as 2-△△Ct) of p 16 and DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) in fibmblasts,and bisulfite sequencing PCR (BSP) to estimate the methylation status of p16 gene in the tissue specimens and primary fibroblasts.Results The keloid fibroblasts (KFbs) showed significandy lower mRNA expression of p16 gene (0.64 ± 0.18 vs.1.92 ± 0.23,t =10.54,P＜ 0.05),but significantly higher mRNA expressions of 3 DNMTs (DNMT1:2.58 ± 0.23 vs.1.13 ± 0.21,t =11.22,P ＜ 0.05; DNMT3A:4.87 ± 0.46 vs.2.38 ± 0.32,t =10.81,P＜ 0.05; DNMT3B:1.57 ± 0.12 vs.0.57 ± 0.16,t =12.45,P＜ 0.05) compared with the normal fibmblasts (NFbs).The DNA methylation rate in the p16 gene promoter region was significantly increased in keloid tissue (1.81％ ± 0.46％) and KFbs (3.15％ ± 0.94％) compared with normal skin tissue (0.90％ ± 0.35％,F =14.23,P＜ 0.01) and NFbs (0.17％ ± 0.29％,F=37.62,P＜ 0.01).Conclusions The methylation and low expression of p16 gene in KFbs may be associated with the uncontrolled growth of keloid,and DNMTs may play a role in the pathogenesis of keloid.

This is designed to analyze and summarize medication rules for treating senile dementia with Chinese medicine in CNKI according to the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) inheritance auxiliary system. Collect documents in CNKI that account treating senile dementia with Chinese formula; filter and establish a formula database, and then to search for medication rules on the TCM inheritance auxiliary system. It is filtered that 104 formulas are used for treating senile dementia screening treat senile dementia, involving 147 kinds of Chinese medicine. Tonic medicine are most frequently used, followed by the medicine of activating blood circulation and resuscitating; medicine pair most used is Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort-Acorus tatarinowii, accounting for 27.9% of all formula. And then 8 core pairs and 4 new formulas are evolved. Analysis on formulas for treating senile dementia filtered form CNKI by TCM inheritance auxiliary system shows prescription is mainly tonifying, activating blood circulation and resuscitating, that reveals prescription rules, to provide a reference for clinical treatment.

Inthis study, the DNA fragment encoding the regions Ⅰ to Ⅱ of CSP gene from Plasmodium falciparm isolate FCC1/HN was cloned into an. expression vector pcDNA3 contained cytomegalovius (CMV) and transformed into human Hela cell line. The expressed protein PfCSP (condidate vaccine) was used to immunize BALB/c mice by subcutaneous、 intravenous or intraperitoneal administration respectively. The splenocyte of BALB/c mice immumized with the condidate vaccine released significantly IL-2 and IFN-γ following stimulation with this vaccine. It is associated with increase of the splenic T lymphocyte proliferation stimulated by this vaccine and enhancement of NK cell killing activity in the former studies. These results suggested that the vaccine could stimulate T cell response and enhance the cell-mediated immunity.

Objective To study the proliferation,collagen production and related gene expression in keloids and normal skin fibroblast.Methods Isolated primary cells of keloid fibroblasts (KFb,n=12) and normal human dermal fibroblasts (NFb,n=12) were identified,the cell viability and proliferating potential and the cell cycle were detected,and the difference on the collagen synthesis between KFb and NFb were compared.The expression of cell cycle-associated genes such as p21,p16,and p27 was dectected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR.Results The phase contrast optical microscopy imaging showed that both KFb isolated from keloid tissues and NFb from normal skin tissues possessed classic and similar fibroblast morphology.But there was a significant difference between cell proliferation,Hyp [(2.30±0.10) μg/ml vs.(1.66±0.13) μg/ml,P＜0.05] and collagen levels [(17.19±0.75) μg/ml vs.(12.37±0.94) μg/ml,P＜0.05].Compared with NFb,KFb exhibited more percentage of G2/M phase cells [(5.90±0.62)％ vs.(16.94 ％±1.93)％,P＜0.05]and less percentage of G0/G1 phase cells [(90.24 ±2.27)％ vs.(75.65±1.92)％,P＜0.05].Cell cycle related genes p16,p21 and p27 were low expressed.Collagen type Ⅰ was highly expressed at mRNA levels in KFb than that in NFb [0.84±0.11,1.32±0.2,1.69±0.12,4.33±0.27 in KFb vs.1.43±0.13,2.56±0.26,2.89±0.37,1.40±0.12 in NFb,P＜0.05].Conclusions There are cell dysfunction and abnormal cellular dynamics in keloid fibroblasts.The formation of keloid likely involves aberrant interactions of some genes that affected its development at different extents.
