1.AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF TIMING OF WOUND
Chinese Journal of Forensic Medicine 1986;0(02):-
Experimental incised wounds 8 mm in diameter were made on the right side of the back of 48 rats under anesthesia using aseptic technique. All animals were randomly divided into 12 groups according to the time of wound biopsies which were taken immediately after skin cutting, lh,12h,24h,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and 10 days after wounding.One rat of each group was given colchicine before animal sacrifice in order to observe cell mitosis. Skin specimens were fixed in 10% formalin,embeded in paraffin and sectioned for HE stain,Gorden and Sweet stain for reticular fiber,Weigert stain for elastic fiber,PTAH stain for fibrin and Van Gieson stain.Macroscopically, wounds were getting smaller daily,and reduced in size markedly on the 6~7th day. The histologic changes were as follows:Acute inflammation on the wall of wounds occurred 1h after skin cutting;profuse fibrin exudation at the top of the base and on the wall of wounds at 24h;new capillary formation and regeneration of the epidermis on the 2nd day;granulation tissue formation and collagen fiber deposition on the 3rd day;small artery formation in the granulation tissue on the 4~5th day;granulation tissue maturation and the regenerating tissue covering the whole wound area on thd 6~7th day;the scar formation and contraction on the 8~9th day;further sear contration on the 10th day.The epidermis regenerated from the proliferation of the epidermis at the edge of the wound with the speed of 1.23mm/day. The regeneration of the epithelium proceeded under the necrotic tissue on both the wall and at the base of wounds. The mechanism of the wound contraction was discussed.

[Summary] Rare diseases are one of the major challenges we face today in the era of precision medicine, because of the low incidence and prevalence, difficulty in diagnosis, lack of sufficient therapeutic methods, as well as their significant impacts on affected individuals, families and the society. Integration of clinical phenotypic and biological omics data and the further analysis are providing a way to illustrate the mechanisms of rare diseases, discovering novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers, developing orphan drugs and other therapeutics, and improving clinical outcomes and quality of life for the patients. A nation-wide registry system and the cohorts studies based on the registry are vital to the research of rare diseases. National Rare Diseases Registry System ( NRDRS) of China will provide this essential platform to promote the rare diseases research in China. With the collaboration of 20 leading medical institutes and innovation in medical informatics technologies, this system will, for the first time in China, collect the epidemiological, clinical, socio-economical, genomics and metabolomics data of more than 50 rare diseases and not less than 50 000 cases. As a national strategy for enhancing the development of medical sciences and the improvement of population health in China, NRDRS and its cohort studies will provide the pivotal support to policy making, clinical care, novel drug discovery, patient advocacy, and finally scientific progress in the field of rare diseases.

Objective To study the expression of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its clinical significance. Methods 36 Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups : the normal group (A), the model group (B) and the medicine treatment group (C). Rats in group B and C were passively smoked for 75 days to establish COPD model. Group B were administered Vit A 15 mg/ kg before smoking. 75 days later,the rats were killed. Group A were killed 25 days after equal volume of saline was dripped in trachea. The pathological changes of lung tissue were observed in each group. The expression of MMP was determined by immunohistochemistry and ELISA. Result The enzymatic activity and the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were reciprocally different as compared among the tree groups(P <0.01). Conclusion MMP expression is increased in impaired lung tissues of COPD rats.
