Objective:To investigate the effects of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (hUCMSC) exosomes in the treatment of full-thickness skin defect wounds in mice through local wound application, subcutaneous injection at the wound margin, and tail vein injection, and to explore the optimal administration route of hUCMSC exosomes for wound treatment.Methods:This study was an experimental study. hUCMSC exosomes were extracted from the discarded umbilical cord tissue of three normal delivery women aged 25-35 years in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Baogang Hospital of Inner Mongolia and successfully identified. Totally 120 male BALB/c mice aged 6-8 weeks were selected, and full-thickness skin defect wounds were prepared on the back of them. According to the random number table, the injured mice were divided into control group (without drug administration), local wound application group, wound margin subcutaneous injection group, and tail vein injection group (with 30 mice in each group). Mice in the latter three groups were given 0.2 mL phosphate buffer solution containing 200 μg hUCMSC exosomes by local wound application, subcutaneous injection at the wound margin, and tail vein injection, respectively. On post injury day (PID) 7, 14, and 21, the general condition of the wound was observed, and the wound healing rate was calculated; the wound tissue was collected, the pathological changes and collagen fibers were observed respectively by hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson staining, the number of new microvessels was observed by CD31 immunohistochemical staining, and the content of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The sample number was 10 in each group at each time point.Results:On PID 7, 14, and 21, the wounds of mice in the 4 groups all healed gradually, and the wound healing of the mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group was the best; the wound healing rates of mice in the three administration groups were significantly higher than those in control group ( P<0.05), the wound healing rates of mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group and tail vein injection group were significantly higher than those in local wound application group ( P<0.05), and the wound healing rates of mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group were significantly higher than those in tail vein injection group ( P<0.05). On PID 7, 14, and 21, the growth and epithelialization speed of the wound tissue of mice in the three administration groups were significantly accelerated, and the collagen fibers in the wounds of mice in the three administration groups were larger in number and more neatly arranged in comparison with the control group. On PID 7, 14, and 21, under every 200-fold visual field, the number of new microvessels in the wound tissue of mice in local wound application group was 24.1±2.5, 50.7±4.1, and 44.2±2.3, respectively, the number of new microvessels in the wound tissue of mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group was 32.2±2.9, 67.5±4.9, and 53.6±3.7, respectively, and the number of new microvessels in the wound tissue of mice in tail vein injection group was 27.8±2.4, 59.1±3.7, and 49.6±2.6, respectively, which was significantly more than 20.6±1.7, 46.7±3.4, and 40.9±2.8 in control group ( P<0.05); the number of new microvessels in the wound tissue of mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group and tail vein injection group was significantly more than that in local wound application group ( P<0.05); the number of new microvessels in the wound tissue of mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group was significantly more than that in tail vein injection group ( P<0.05). On PID 7, 14, and 21, the content of TNF-α and IL-6 in the wound tissue of mice in the three administration groups was significantly less than that in control group ( P<0.05), the content of TNF-α and IL-6 in the wound tissue of mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group and tail vein injection group was significantly less than that in local wound application group ( P<0.05), and the content of TNF-α and IL-6 in the wound tissue of mice in wound margin subcutaneous injection group was significantly less than that in tail vein injection group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Local wound application, subcutaneous injection at the wound margin, and tail vein injection of hUCMSC exosomes can all promote the wound healing of full-thickness skin defects in mice through alleviating excessive inflammatory response and promoting angiogenesis. Among them, subcutaneous injection at the wound margin has a better therapeutic effect, indicating subcutaneous injection at the wound margin is the optimal administration route for hUCMSC exosomes in wound treatment.

Objective: To investigate the effects of PRX-2 gene on phenotype changes in epidermal stem cells differentiating into sweat gland cells. Methods: Epidermal stem cells and sweat gland cells separated and cultured from healthy foreskin and adult full-thick skin respectively, were identified by immunofluorescence staining. Lentiviral vector-mediated overexpression and knockdown of PRX-2 gene in epidermal stem cells were performed respectively, with empty vector-mediated epidermal stem cells as a control group. Overexpression、blank control and knowdown group′s PRX-2 expressions in gene and protein levels were detected using RT-PCR and Western blot technology. The ESCs of each group were co-cultured with sweat gland cells through transwell plate, and the expressions of CEA and β1 integrin in epidermal stem cells were determined by flow cytometry before and after co-culturing. Results: Epidermal stem cells and sweat gland cells were in line with their respective specific antigens. Before co-cultured, epidermal stem cells highly expressed β1 integrin (98.69±0.67)%, hardly expressed CEA (6.20±3.15)%. After co-cultured, β1 integrin expression levels were showed as knockdown group (19.30±0.53)% blank control group (51.20±0.79)%> overexpress group (45.91±0.93)%. There had significant differences between those of each two groups. Conclusions PRX-2 gene can inhibit the phenotypic change of Epidermal Stem Cells differentiating into Sweat Gland Cells and improve the ability to maintain their own specific antigens.

OBJECTIVEThe aim of this study was to assess the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic nerve plane-sparing radical hysterectomy (NPSRH) and compare with that of open NPSRH.

METHODSOne hundred and thirty-four patients with FIGO stage Ib1-IIa2 cervical cancer were enrolled in the study. Thirty-three patients underwent laparoscopic NPSRH. During the operation, the pelvic autonomic nerve plane which is directly underneath the ureter was integrally preserved by dissecting the pelvic spaces laparoscopically. The vessels around the nerve plane were controlled by Hem-o-lok polymer clips. One hundred and one patients underwent open NPSRH without special instruments. The clinical, pathological and surgery-related parameters were compared between the two groups. Moreover, postoperative short-term bladder function of these patients was also analyzed.

RESULTSThere was no significant difference between the laparoscopic group and open group in terms of age, body mass index, previous surgery, FIGO stage, pathologic type, etc. (P > 0.05). The mean duration of surgery in the laparoscopic group was significantly longer [(303.8 ± 67.5) min vs. (272.4 ± 57.5) min] (P < 0.01). But, the laparoscopic group had less blood loss [177.0 ml vs. 474.5 ml, P < 0.01] and blood transfusion rate [ 6.1% (2/33 cases) vs. 49.5% (50/101 cases), P < 0.001]. There was no significant difference regarding the proportion of patients who firstly passed the post-void residual urine volume (PVR) test (P > 0.05). The median time of catheterization between the two groups were also comparable (P > 0.05). However, the postoperative hospital stay was significantly shorter in the laparoscopic group [median postoperative hospital stay 9.2 days vs. 11.0 days, P < 0.001].

CONCLUSIONSLaparoscopic NPSRH is feasible. It seems to be comparable with open NPSRH in terms of preserving pelvic nerve function, but is more favorable in terms of blood loss and postoperative recovery.

BACKGROUNDReduced endometrial receptivity in hyperstimulated cycles may lead to a lower implantation rate and a lower clinical pregnancy rate, but it is unclear if it is also associated with an increase in pregnancy loss rate. The aim of this study was to compare the implantation, miscarriage, and pregnancy rates between fresh and frozen thawed transfer of one or two day-3 embryos, with a view to understanding whether or not reduced endometrial receptivity encountered in hyperstimulated cycles is associated with an increase in miscarriage rate.

METHODSThis study involved a consecutive series of 1 551 single day-3 embryo transfer cycles and consecutive 5 919 double day-3 embryo transfer cycles in the Assisted Reproductive Unit of the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Hangzhou, China, between January 2010 and December 2012.

RESULTSThe implantation and clinical pregnancy rates (single embryo 30.7% and double embryos 33.4% and 51.4%) using fresh cycle were both significantly lower than that of frozen-thawed cycles (single embryo 35.8% and double embryos 38.1% and 57.8%). There was no difference in biochemical loss or clinical miscarriage rates between the two groups.

CONCLUSIONSImpairment of endometrial receptivity associated with ovarian hyperstimulation leads to implantation failure at a very early stage, resulting in an increased number of non-pregnancy. It does not lead to increase in biochemical or clinical losses. The significantly reduced ongoing pregnancy rates in both fresh single and double embryo transfer are therefore due to failure to achieve a pregnancy, rather than pregnancy loss after conception.
