BACKGROUND: The ulcer wound is hard to heal in diabetic patients,and it is believed to be caused by the microcirculatory disorder of wound and decreased contents of endogenous growth factors in patients with diabetes mellitus.OBJECTIVE: To observe the biological effects of adeno-associated virus (AAV) mediated transforming growth factor beta1 (AAV-TGFβ1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (AAV-VEGF) in promoting the dermal ulcer healing of diabetic rabbits.DESIGN: A randomized controlled animal experiment.SETTINGS: Medical College, Qingdao University; Affiliated Hospital of Medical College, Qingdao University.MATERIALS: The experiments were carried out in the gynecological laboratory, Affiliated Hospital of Medical College, Qingdao University from July 2004 to January 2006. Twenty-four healthy adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into co-transfection group (n=12) and control group (n=12).METHODS: ① The dermal ulcer models of diabetic rabbits was established by injecting alloxan (130 mg/kg) via ear vein, and the ulcer wound was made by operation. ② In the co-transfection group, the wound was locally infiltrated, and injected with AAV-TGFβ1 virus and AAV-VEGF virus (the concentration was 9×106 virus granules/mL respectively). The rabbits in the control group were treated with injection of saline.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① The levels of TGFβ1 and VEGF gene transcription in the healing tissue were detected with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) at 1 month postoperatively. ② The capillary density in the wound margin was counted with microcirculation microscope at 3 weeks postoperatively. ③ The collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ were isolated and detected with Western blotting by protein gel electrophoresis and semi-dry electrophoretic transfer. ④ The content of collagen in the ulcer healing issue was detected at 1 day, 1, 2 and 3 weeks, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 months postoperatively. ⑤ The thickness, color and quality of the wound healing were observed postoperatively.RESULTS: All the 24 rabbits were involved in the analysis of results. ① The expressions of TGFβ1 and VEGF gene transcription in the co-transfection group were increased as compared with those in the control group. ② The capillary density at the wound margin in the co-translection group was higher than that in the control group [(19.18±3.56), (6.43±1.52)/mm2,t=3.21, P < 0.05]. ③ The content of collagen Ⅰ in the ulcer healing tissue in the co-transfection group was obviously increased, and the proportion of collagen Ⅰ in the constituent ratio of collagen Ⅱ and Ⅲ was increased.④ The contents of collagen in the ulcer healing tissue at 1 day after transfection were close without significant difference between the two groups (t=1.55, P > 0.05). After that, the contents of collagen in the cotransfection group were all significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). ⑤ The ulcer healing in the control group was obviously lagged with bad quality.CONCLUSION: The combination of AAV-TGFβ1 and AAV-VEGF can efficiently transfect the dermal ulcer wound in diabetic rabbits, obviously increase the capillary density in ulcer tissue, markedly improve the proportion of collagen I in the constituent ratio of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ in healing tissue, and obviously ameliorate the condition of ulcer healing.

Herald of Medicine 2014;(11):1446-1449
Objective To study the phosphorylation mode of extracellular regulated kinase( ERK)induced by acute and chronic morphine treatment on Chinese hamster ovary( CHO)cells expressed withμopioid receptors. Methods The time course of ERK phosphorylation 1 h and 36 h after morphine exposure as well as naloxone-precipitated withdrawal was detected by immunobloting. Results A transient enhancement of ERK phosphorylation was induced by 1 μmol · L-1 morphine with the peak effect at 5 min(P〈0. 01),and the effect was dose-dependent. No difference in ERK phosphorylation was found after 36h of treatment with 10 μmol · L-1 morphine compared with the control. However,5 or 10 min-naloxone precipitation induced remarkable decrease in ERK phosphorylation compared with the control(P〈0. 01). Conclusion Different changes of ERK phosphorylation were found under acute and chronic morphine treatment and naloxone precipitation,indicating a compensation of ERK related pathway induced byμ opioid receptors.

Objective To investigate the possible influence of immunosuppressive therapy,including sirolimus (SRL) and calcineurin inhibitors (CNI, tacrolimus), on level of Treg in the liver allo-graft recipients, Methods Forty-seven liver transplant recipients with stable liver function were assessed for at least 2 years, and divided into two groups: one composed of 15 patients receiving SRL,and another, of those receiving CNI (32 patients with tacrolimus). Thirty-eight age-matched healthy subjects (HS) were used as normal controls. We examined the expression of CD4, CD25, and Foxp3 in peripheral blood monouclear cells. Treg of every group was analyzed using Cell Quest software.Results SRL significantly increased the prevalence of CD4+ CD25high T cells, compared with HS and CNI group. The prevalence of CD4+ CD25high T cells of CNIs group was significantly lower than that of HS. The percentage of CD4+ CD25high T cells in the total CD4+ T cells was 1.88 % (1.56 %-2. 60 %), 1. 15 % (0. 57 %-l. 48 %) and 0. 84 % (0. 46 %-1. 45 %) in SRL, NS and CNI group,respectively (P<0. 01 or P<0. 05). Foxp3 was expressed in more than 95 % of CD4 + CD25high T cells and less than 20 % of CD4+ CD25low T cells, whereas not expressed in CD4+ CD25- T cells.Conclusion Different immunosuppressive therapy (SRL or CNI) might have different roles in tolerance induction in liver transplant recipients. Namely, SRL promoted the induction of allo-antigen tolerance, but CNI hampered the progression.

Objective Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of might-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) was utilized to analyze the protein fingerprint in brain-gut interaction of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) model rats' colon, so as to find the clues for IBS. Methods Fourteen healthy male adult Wistar rats were selected and divided into a control and a chronic and acute stress ( CAS) group. Colon motility, visceral sensation and behavior changes of rats were detected to evaluate the model. MALDI-TOF-MS was used to observe the overall view of protein in colon so as to study whether there are abnormalities of protein levels in IBS. Results As compared with those in the control group, the number of fecal pellets [ (6. 00 ± 1. 69 ) pellets/1 h vs ( 1. 14 ± 0. 69 ) pellets/1 h, P < 0. 01 ] and frequency of abdominal contraction induced by colorectal distention (CRD) increased, while the amount of weight gain [ (298. 88 ± 18.61)gvs (348. 00±12. 44)g, P<0.01] and consumption of sucrose solutions [ (13. 63 ± 1. 69) ml/1 h vs (19.00±3.06) ml/1 h, P<0.05] decreased in the CAS group (P <0. 05). As far as protein/peptide quality different peak was concerned, CAS rats had 12 different peaks compared with the control rats. The different proteins could be divided into 4 types, which were related to iron secretion, protein synthesis, G protein system and immunity. The protein levels of the model group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0. 05). Conclusions The CAS rats integrate the major characteristics of IBS such as altered colon motility, higher visceral hypersensitivity and psychiatric disorder and can mimic the brain-gut interaction of IBS partly. The detection of differential proteins provides reference for the pathogenesis and treatment of IBS.
