This study examined the roles of HLA-G in the pathogenesis, development and immune tolerance of hemangioma. From 2000 to 2007, 52 paraffin-embedded specimens (26 from males and 26 from females) of skin capillary hemangioma and 7 samples of adjacent normal skin tissues were collected. Four fresh specimens of hemangioma were also harvested. All samples were HE-stained and proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was immunohistochemically detected by using SP method. The samples were classified into proliferative group and degenerative group according to the Mulliken criteria and the expression pattern of PCNA. SP method and quantum dots double staining were applied to detect the expression of HLA-G and PCNA in hemangioma and normal tissue samples. The expression of HLA-G was detected by RT-PCR. The results showed that among the 52 samples of hemangioma, 29 were of proliferative type and 23 degenerative type, and of the four fresh samples of hemangioma, 2 were of proliferative type and 2 degenerative type. SP method results showed that HLA-G was expressed in both proliferative and degenerative hemangioma, but not in normal tissues. The quantum dots double staining exhibited that HLA-G expression was significantly higher in proliferative group than in degenerative (P<0.05) and normal groups (P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference between the latter two groups (P>0.05). RT-PCR revealed that HLA-G was transcribed in both the proliferative and degenerative hemangioma tissues, but not in normal tissues. We are led to conclude that the elevated expression of HLA-G in proliferative hemangioma cells may lead to immune tolerance, which allows cells to escape immune surveillance and proliferate. On the other hand, the lower expression of HLA-G in degenerative hemangioma may result in immune cells-induced degeneration of hemangioma.

Along with contemporary development of life support technology in perinatology and neo-natal intensive care,mortality of preterm infants has been reduced.However,the problems caused by the brain damage have been attracting more and more attention.The long-term outcome of prematures depends on their nervous system sequelae among the total complications.Preterm infants'brain damage mainly includes intravent-ricular hemorrhage(IVH)and periventricular leukomalacia(PVL).IVH and its complications are the main causes of early death,mental and physical developmental disorder of neonatals.Thus,the early diagnosis of brain dam-age,especially PVL,has become a serious problem that we are going to face.The scholars in or aboard hao payed close attention to these markers,such as MBP、S100B、ACT A、NF-L、NGB、MMP、IL-6、IL-10、IL-1 1 、NSE.The paper reviews these biological markers.

OBJECTIVE To know the disinfection efficacy of electrolyzed oxidizing water(EOW) and glutaraldehyde on clinical used gastroscope and enteroscope in our hospital and to analyze their stability and probable harm.METHODS The gastroscope and enteroscope before and after use on randomly selected outpatients and inpatients were examined on their contamination,and the efficacy of EOW was compared with that of glutaraldehyde.RESULTS After using EOW and glutaraldehyde to disinfect the gastroscope and enteroscope the former showed that its killing rate on commonly encountered pathogens for 1 min was 93.75-98.22%,for 3 min was 81.20-89.29%,and for 5 min was 100.00%;the latter showed that its killing rate for 3 min was 81.20-89.29%,for 5 min was 90.38-93.04%,and for 10 min was 99.92-99.96%.EOW was non-irritative to mucosa,and didn′t cause allergic reaction,but its stability was poor.The glutaraldehyle could bring some side effects,such as some allergy,and mucosa stimulation.CONCLUSIONS It only needs 3-5 min for EOW to kill polluted bacteria on gastroscope and enteroscope to attain the disinfection eligibility,but glutaraldehyde needs more than 10 min to get to the disinfection eligibility.The effect of EOW is strong,rapid,active and environment-safe,it is worthy of application,but it must be applied immediately as soon as possible after production.The use of glutaraldehyde must strengthen the measures of personal protection.

BACKGROUND: Insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is an important embryonic mitosis growth promoting factor, whichplays a critical role in the process of maintaining normal cell growth. The gene expression of IGF2 is under epigeneticregulation in the way of genomic imprinting. Imprinting loss of IGF2 is likely to be associated with the abnormaldevelopment of the individual and tumorigenesis.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of imprinting loss of IGF2 gene on the differentiation of mouse embryonic stemcells into islet-like cells.METHODS: Two kinds of mouse embryonic stem cells (SF1-G and SF1-1) were induced to differentiate into islet-likecells in vitro. The expression of Insulin gene was detected by real-time PCR and cell immunofluorescence. Theexpression of IGF2 was detected by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in the cellsbefore and after induced differentiation. The level of insulin released at terminal differentiation stage was tested by insulinrelease assay in vitro.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There was no change in the imprinting state of the two kinds of mouse embryonicstem cells with normal and imprinted IGF-2 gene before and after differentiation. (2) In the induced cells, the expressionlevel of insulin in the SF1-1 group was higher than that in the SF1-G group, although there was no significant differencein the insulin release between the two kinds of cells. (3)The imprinting loss of IGF-2 gene may be related to theup-regulation of insulin mRNA expression in terminal cells during induced differentiation.

Objective:To prepare the ocular thermosensitive gel of atropine sulfate and study its in vitro release. Methods: The gel formula was optimized by central composite design response surface methodology. The influences of the amounts of poloxamer 407 (P407) and poloxamer 188(P188) on gelling temperature before and after the dilution with simulated tear fluid were investigated. A membraneless dissolution model was used to determine the gel erosion and in vitro release. Results:The optimized gel formula was as follows:23% P407 and 5% P188. The deviations between the measured values and predicted values were all lower than 5%. The in vitro release experiment showed that the gel erosion and the drug release fitted zero-order kinetics equations with promising correlation, indicating a dissolution-controlled release mechanism. Conclusion:The optimization of the ocular thermosensitive gel of atropine sul-fate can be achieved by central composite design response surface methodology with good estimation. The thermosensitive gel with sus-tained drug release property meets the design requirements.
