Objective To investigate the effects of acellular allo-dermis for repairing skin defects in clinic.Methods A total of 78 cases were studied in this article. All of these patients were treated by acellular allo-dermis plus autologous epiderm skin complex grafts. Among these patients, 10 patients were injuried with skin,and soft tissue avulsion, 23 patients with limbs eschar wounds caused by burn,and after scar excision,45 patients with wounds undergoing plastic operations. Results 78 cases had satisfactory effects in appearance and functions. The complex skin grafts of 69 cases among all the 78 cases were alive. The complex skin grafts of the other 9 cases were partially skin sheet alive. Conclusions Acellular allo-dermis is an ideal skin surrogate, it has good tissue elasticity and tolerance. It can not only ensure the appearance and functions similar to thicker skin graft, but also reduce scar produce in donor site.

Objective To investigate the intervention effect of lentivirus expressing human IL-10 (LV-hIL-10) on activated astrocytes.Methods DI TNC1 cell line was treated with different concentrations of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and time points.The expression of proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukinb-1β (IL-1β) was detected by RT-PCR and ELISA.Moreover,the effect on the expression of proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β was analyzed in DI TNC1 cell lines infected with and without LV-hIL-10.Results The expression of TNF-α and IL-1β was increased in DI TNC1 induced by LPS.The expression of IL-10 was upregulated in DI TNC1 infected with LV-hIL-10.TNF-α and IL-1β were inhibited by IL-10 overexpression in DI TNC1 actived by LPS.Conclusion DI TNC1 is activated by LPS and secretes proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β as immune-like cells,and these activation is inhibited by hIL-10 overexpression.

Objective To construct a lentiviral vector of RNA interference (RNAi) of murine triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) gene and to explore the effect of TREM-1 on the inflammatory response caused by Bacteroides fragilis. Methods Four target sequences were selected according to murine TREM-1 mRNA sequence, and then 4 pairs of double-strand DNA oligo according to these target sequences and one pair of negative control double-strand DNA oligo were designed and synthesized. These fragments were subcloned into pGCSIL-GFP/Lenti plasmid. After being identified by PCR and sequencing, these plasmids were cotransfected into 293T cells to package lentiviral particles. The lentiviral vector particles were transfected into Raw 264. 7 cells and TREM-1 expression in the transfected cells was assayed by real-time PCR and ELISA. Different concentrations of Bacteroides fragilis lipopolysaccaride (LPS) were administered in the Raw264. 7 cells, and the cells were stimulated with LPS for 12 h. TREM-1 expression was determined by real-time PCR and ELISA at the time points. Results PCR and sequencing confirmed that lentiviral vectors had the correct structure and could express high titer of virus. After being transfected into Raw264. 7 cells, TREM-1 expression was knocked down significantly by all of these lentiviral vectors at both protein and mRNA levels, and the pGCSIL-GFP/Lenti-1 had the most efficient interference. TREM-1 was upregulated in the presence of Bacteroides fragilis LPS, and this increase was partly abrogated in the TREM-1 siRNA-treated cell models of endotoxemia, depending on the sequence. Conclusion The lentivirus RNAi vector of TREM-1 was constructed successfully. The lentivirus RNAi vector of TREM-1 can inhibit the expression of TREM-1 in the murine endotoxemia model caused by Bacteroides fragilis LPS.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of liposuction-curettage under negative pressure combined with Xiaozhiling injection for the treatment of axillary bromhidrosis.Methods The operative field was marked along the border of hair-bearing area of axilla with a distal margin of 0.5-1 cm.Subcutaneous tissue was removed by stroke movement under negative pressure after tumescent anesthesia.Subsequently,Xiaozhiling injection was injected into the subcutaneous space.All the patients were followed for at least 3 months,and therapeutic efficacy was evaluated quantitatively.Results A total of 72 patients (144 sides) with axillary bromhidrosis were treated with this method from March 2009 to May 2012,including 16 males and 56 females aged 14-41 years.All the patients experienced primary healing with no necrosis or hematoma formation within one week after the operation.The follow-up lasted 3 to 18 months (average: 8 months).Among the 144 sides,133 (92.4％) were cured,11 (7.6％) were improved,with the response rate being 100％.Postoperative scar is invisible,and patients were satisfied with the treatment outcomes.Conclusion The combined therapy is a simple and effective approach to the treatment of axillary bromhidrosis with a fast recovery and less complications.

Objective: To explore the application and choice of latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap and thoracodorsal artery perforator flap in different wound repair. Methods: From March 2012 to February 2018, 8 cases of different wounds were repaired with island latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap pedicled with dorsal thoracic artery, free latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap, or thoracodorsal artery perforator flap combined with scapular flap. The patients includes 4 cases of trauma, 2 cases of tumor and 2 cases of osteomyelitis. Among them, 5 cases received pedicled grafting, 2 cases had anastomotic vascular free grafting combined with antibiotic bone cement chain bead, 1 case had thoracodorsal artery perforator flap combined with scapular flap. Results: All 9 flaps of 8 patients survived. The size of the flaps ranged from 22.0 cm×7.5 cm to 28.0 cm×21.0 cm. All the donor and recipient areas healed well. After 2 months to 2 years follow up, all flaps have good blood supply, and the limbs′ function was normal. The appearance of flaps were satisfactory, with fully treated osteomyelitis, and no recurrence of the tumor was observed. Conclusions According to wound characteristics, selective application of thoracodorsal artery perforator flap, pedicled or free latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap is effective for the repair of muscle, skin and soft tissue defects, as well as osteomyelitis, after tumor resection.
