Objective To study the expression and pathologic significance of CD147,cyclophilin A (CyPA)and cyclophilin B(CyPB)in psoriatic lesions.Methods Immunohistochemical method was ap- plied to detect the expression of CD147,CyPA and CyPB in skin specimens of 15 patients with psoriasis pustulosa(PP),20 patients with progressive psoriasis vulgaris(PPV),and 20 patients with inactive psori- asis vulgaris(IPV).Immunoreactivity intensity distribution index(IRIDI)was calculated to assess the expres- sion intensity of CD147,CyPA and CyPB.Results CD147,CyPA and CyPB were detected in all speci- mens.The IRIDI scores of CD147 and CyPA were significantly higher in keratinocytes of psoriatic lesions than in those of the control specimens(all P0.05).The IRIDI score of CyPB in T lymphocytes of PP lesions was significantly elevated than that in PPV lesions,which was in turn higher than that in IPV lesions(all P0.05).Conclusion CD147,CyPA and CyPB may play a role in the occurrence and development of psoriasis.

There are few articles or reports collecting evidence about parenterally administered salvianolate from premarketing and postmarketing research or studies systematically. This article is an exact miniature of a systematical report about parenterally administered salvianolate. We analyzed information from four aspects, such as quality control reports, non-clinical premarketing safety experiments, postmarketing research (efficacy studies, hospital information system data and national spontaneous reporting system data) and literature analysis. All the four aspects build an evidence body for Kudiezi Solution in order to inform its safety use in clinical practice and further study.

BACKGROUND:Chronic venous insufficiency is a major health problem worldwide. Clinical treatments include venous valve repair and venous segment containing valve transplantation. However, these are invasive procedures, and the supply of vein containing valves is limited. Significant progress in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine has been made towards the creation of tissue engineered vascular grafts for the repair of damaged or malformed vessels. It has been reported that using tissue engineering, a tissue engineered vein containing valves constructed with self-derived endothelial cells and al ogeneic acellular matrices can provide the complex physiological valve structure and mechanical stability, but this elicited an immunogenic response.
OBJECTIVE:To create a viable and functional vein containing valves, which has the ability to grow, repair, and imitate natural tissues.
METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were obtained from Beagle dogs by density gradient centrifugation and adherence methods. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in vitro. Fol owing isolation and culture the cells were examined using flow cytometry and identified by direct induction towards the osteogenic and adipogenic lineages. We fabricated biodegradable venous scaffold containing valves using the method of injection molding combined with thermal y induced phase separation. Based on the self-made cast, a three-dimensional biodegradable vein scaffold containing valves was constructed from poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid). Morphological structure was tested. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were used as seed cells to be seeded onto the lumen of the tissue engineered vein scaffold containing valves in vitro and then incubated for 2 weeks.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the scaffold demonstrated sufficient porosity. Cultured cells expressed mesenchymal cellmarkers, CD44 and CD29, but did not express hematopoietic cellmarkers, CD34 and CD45 at the same time point. Scaffolds were nontoxic to cells and were favorable for the growth and migration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. cells attached on the surface of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) scaffolds formed a confluent layer after incubation. The cellular constructs were tested in vitro, and the valve leaflets were functional y capable of opening and closing when stimulated. These results suggested that the tissue engineered vein containing valves have been successful y constructed by using a three-dimensional poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) scaffold and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells as seed cells. Tissue engineered vein containing valves is potential y useful for the substitution and regeneration of vein valves.
