To investigate the expression characteristics of fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) and its receptor (Bek) underlying their effect on the formation of fetal skin appendages (SA). Expressions of FGF10, Bek, cytokeratin (CK19), Bcl-2 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were detected with pathological and immunohistochemistry techniques in 130 skin specimens, which were obtained from 5 different sites (head, lower jaw, ear lobe, shoulder and presternal region) of 26 fetuses at different embryonic ages (E 8~31weeks). Results showed that FGF10, PCNA and Bcl-2 were over-expressed in interstitial cells distributed in clumps under the epidermis, and all proteins were strongly expressed in epidermal cells and pericytes at E 11weeks. In E 13weeks fetal skin, epidermal cells formed SA anlage through focal proliferation; then they developed, differentiated and migrated towards the dermis. In the skin of E 11~13weeks fetus, the expression of FGF-10, PCNA and Bcl-2 in interstitial cells in the dermis, and the expression of FGF10, Bek, PCNA, CK19, and Bcl-2 proteins in the epithelial cells in SA showed the expression characteristics of these proteins which were in accordance with growth and development of fetal SA. The results suggested that the specific binding of FGF10 from interstitial cells with Bek on the membrane of epithelial cells was the important signal to induce the proliferation and morphogenesis of embryonic SA epithelial \{cells.\ \ \ \}

Objective To explore the expression of c-fos gene at early stage and changes of focal cerebral blood flow (CBF) in brain tissue after intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) in rats.Methods The rat models with ICH were made by Nath improvement method;fos protein in brain tissue and the expression of c-fos mRNA were measured by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR method;its focal cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured by hydrogen clearing method.Results The expression of fos protein was found at 1 h after ICH in the ipsilateral basal ganglia after ICH,it peaked at 3 h;c-fos mRNA peaked at 1 h after ICH,and had still expression of higher level after 3 h;cBF was reduced at 1 h after ICH,and returned to the level of the control group by 3 h and maintained to 24 h after ICH,and then appeared the reduction of CBF during 24 h again.Conclusion The increase and long induction expression of c-fos gene were showed in brain tissue of hematoma periperal zone and contralateral cortex one.Although focal CBF reduced after ICH in rats,it wasn't consistent with the expression of c-fos gene.

The cytokine-receptor- heparin sulfate functional complex combined by cytokines, cytokine receptors, and heparin sulfate chains formed by concatenation of heparin sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG), an important component of extracellular matrix and modified by some relative enzymes, can regulate the density of cytokine receptors and their intracellular signal transduction. This article focused on the regulatory function of this complex. Many morphological abnormalities and diseases occur when the complex is dysfunctional.

Objective To explore the correlation of the formation of pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia (PEH) after healing of inappropriately treated wound of skin with epithelial mesenchymal cells transdifferentiation (EMT). Methods Morphological change in epithelial tissue was observed with histopathologic methods in epithelial cells from PEH lesions ( n =11) and normal skin specimens obtained adjacent to PEH (PEH N, n =6) from 11 patients with PEH. At the same time, the characteristic of expressions and distribution of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen, alpha smooth muscule actin (? SMA), vimentin (Vim), desmin (Des), transforming growth factor ?1 (TGF ?1)and its receptor (TGFRI), pan cytokeratin (CKp), and type Ⅳ collagen in PEH were examined with indirect immunofluorescent double labelling method. Results In comparison with PEH N, squamous epithelium in PEH presented a picture of atypical hyperplasia, there was a derangement of basal apical polarity, disrupture in structure, and a displacement of cells foward mesenchyme. Examination under electron microscope revealed deformation of epithelial basal cells, with loose intercellular junction, and newly formed tumor like cells distingaishable from original epithelial cells. Expressions of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen,? SMA,Vim and Des could be detected in the epithelial cells of PEH. However,the protein expressions of CKp, Ⅳ type collagen were significantly decreased in basal epithelial cells. Furthermore, free epithelial cells expressing CKp were found in the deep layer of mesenchyme. Conclusion It was confirmed for the first time that there was a phenomenon of EMT during the course of PEH formation. Epithelial cells in PEH lesion with granuloma and non hypertrophic scar are characteristized by de differentiation, redifferentiation and a decrement of TGF ?1 induction, which are involved in reactive hyperplasia of the epithelium.

Objective To investigate correlation between the amount of interleukin-17 (IL-17) producing cells and the expression of transforming growth factor (31 (TGF-β1) in glioma,and evaluate the clinical values of IL-17 and TGF-pl in predicting the prognosis of glioma. Methods The presence of IL-17 and TGF-pl was measured by immunohistochemistry in 135 human glioma (WHO Ⅰ 18,WHO Ⅱ 45,WHO Ⅲ 53,WHO Ⅳ 19) tissues and 15 normal brain tissues. Results There was no IL-17 positive staining in normal brain tissues. Of 135 glioma specimens showed low TGF-pl expression and 77 (57. 03% ) showed high TGF-pl expression. No TGF-β1 expression was detected in normal brain tissue. Furthermore,TGF-β1 expression was positively correlated with the amount of IL-17 producing cells in glioma tissues ( r=0.285, P<0.01). Compared with the low grade,the levels of IL-17 and TGF-pl positive cells were obviously increased in high grade. The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that there were significant differences in overall survival (OS) between the IL-17 and TGF-pl high-expression and lowexpression group (P<0.01, P<0.05). The 3-year OS rates of IL-17 of high expression and low expression were 33.75% and 76. 36%. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that age,KPS score, IL-17 were independent prognostic factor for OS (P<0.01). Conclusion Intratumoral IL-17-producing cell density and the expression of TGF-β1 was associated with the malignancy of human glioma.

Objective To explore the relation between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the meteorological factors.Methods All RA cases in the group were followed for 12 months,patients were follow-up for every two weeks.In each followed-up,all RA cases were evaluated by the disease activity score-28 (DAS28) and the improved Jamieson questionnaire,and the correlation of the DAS28 and the average values of meteorolo-gical factors (temperature,humidity,atmospheric pressure,relative humidity,wind speed) by Pearson correlation coefficient.The moderate-severe activity cases were evaluated by chi-square test of different seasons.Results One hundred and eighty-eight cases completed the observation,One hundred and sixty-four cases were in moderate disease activities (x2=9.42,P=0.022).Sixty-eight cases were distributed in winter,which was significantly higher than other three seasons.The average temperature and wind speed was negatively related to the DAS28 (r=-0.743,P<0.01; r=-0.576,P=0.003).Conclusion The activity of RA has the characteristics of seasonal changes,and is easily being aggravated in winter.Many factors may influence RA,including temperature and wind speed.Creating an appropriate micro-climate environment is beneficial for RA patients to reduce the disease activity.
