Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2011;18(19):2593-2594
ObjectiveTo study the heat shock protein 47 ( HSP 47 ) andtype Ⅰ ,Ⅲ collagen relevance expression in keloid tissue. MethodsUSE immunohistochemistry to detect 21 patients( HS group) pathological keloid tissue HSP47, Ⅰ-type, Ⅲ collagen levels,and normal foreskin(control group) compared to the expression of HSP 47 and Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen. ResultsHS group HSP 47 scar absorbance was( A value) ( 133.0 ± 58.7) ,it was significantly lower than the control group( 169.6 ± 53.2) ( t =2. 697 ,P =0.024) ;two groups of collagen type Ⅰ, Ⅲ collagen levels had statistically differentce(t =14.898,12.610,all P =0.000) ; HSP 47 level and type Ⅰ collagen were positively correlated(r =3.058,P =0. 034),and type Ⅲ collagen content was also positively correlated(r =4. 610, P =0. 029). ConclusionHSP 47 in keloid tissue could cause dermal layer assembly of collagen synthesis and significantly increased,and it was an important mechanism for the formation of keloids.

Journal of Modern Laboratory Medicine 2014;(6):21-24
Objective To investigate the pathogenesis of interleukin-21 (IL-21)role in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC).Meth-ods 38 cases of PBC were selected for the study.35 caeses of healthy subjects were selected as the control group in January 2012 to January 2014 from Shenzhen Fuyong People’s Hospital of Baoan District and the Third People’s Hospital of Shenz-hen.The levels of IL-21,IL-17 of two groups were measured with Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The levels of T helper lymphocytes 17 (Th17),regulatory T cells (Treg)cells ratios of two groups were measured with flow cytome-try.The relationship of IL-2 1 and liver function were analyzed with pearson correlation.Another analysis of pyruvate through the establishment of in vitro deaminase complex E2 subunit (PDC-E2)peptides relationship with Th17 and Treg cell.Results The levles of IL-17 (18.23±4.12)ng/L,IL-21 (512.25±18.25)ng/L,Th17 (3.98±0.98)%,Th17/Treg (39.25±3.25)% of PBC group were significantly higher than the control group (7.89±3.26)ng/L,(212.98±21.52)ng/L,(0.92±0.21)% and (12.98±3.12)%,while the PBC group Treg (3.11±0.85)% were lower than the control group (8.36±1.12)%.IL-21 were positive correlation with IL-17,Th17 (t=8.886,7.021,4.448,10.112,5.125,P<0.05).In vitro experiments showed that the addition of IL-21 in the culture system,the levels of Th17 (2.41±0.82)%,Th17/Treg cells(32.98±3.12)% were significantly higher than the control group(0.98±0.21)%,(12.25±3.25)%,while Treg (4.75 ±0.68)% were lower than the control group(11.85±0.96)%,the difference was statistically significant (8.521,6.489, 8.236,P<0.05).Conclusion IL-21 levels increased with the pathogenesis of PBC has a close relationship,which can pro-mote the reaction of PDC-E2 Th1 7/Treg immune imbalance caused thereby occurs mediated by PBC.

Objective To construct eukaryotic expression vector of human antimicrobial peptide LL-37 pPIC9-LL-37, and transform the plasmid pPIC9-LL-37 into P.pastoris GS115 to obtain the recombinant P.pastoris strains.Methods The full-length of antimicsobial peptide LL-37 gene was artificially synthesized by overlap extension method and was fused to pPIC9 and then the fused plasmid was transformed into E.coli DH5?.After analysis by PCR and sequencing,the plasmid pPIC9-LL-37 was transformed into P.pastoris.The colonies exhibiting the phenotype of His+Mut+ or His+Mut-were screened by means of MM and MD plates and the insertion was confirmed by PCR.Results The results of PCR and sequencing confirmed that the LL-37 gene was correctly inserted into pPIC9. The colonies of 10 His+Mut+ and 9 His+Mut-were obtained by means of MM and MD plates screening and were confirmed by PCR.Conclsion The recombinant P.pastoris strains containing LL-37 were successfully obtained.

BACKGROUNDSurgical resection becomes standard treatment for pulmonary metastatic tumor with operative indication. The aim of this study is to analyze the indication and surgical efficacy of pulmonary metastasectomy.
METHODSFrom November 1991 to May 2003, a total of 26 patients with pulmonary metastatic tumors were treated surgically in our hospital, 12 cases were males and 14 females, with an average age of 50 years old. The metastatic tumors came from different organs and tissues, 5 cases accompanied by metastatic tumors of liver or brain.
RESULTSFour cases underwent pneumonectomy, 8 lobectomy, and 14 wedge resection (in which 8 cases underwent mildly invasive operation using video-assisted thoracic surgery). No operative death occurred. 5-year survival rate was 27.3% (3/11), 2-year survival rate 42.9% (9/21) and 1-year survival rate 69.2% (18/26).
CONCLUSIONSPulmonary metastasectomy is recommended in pulmonary metastases with operative indication, and is still effective in cases accompanied by resectable metastatic tumors of liver or brain. Mildly invasive operation using video-assisted thoracic surgery might be chosen for some cases with single metastatic locus.

Myxomas are the most frequent, cardiac benign cardiac tumors which often present with stroke caused by tumorous orthrombotic emboli. The treatment of embolic stroke due to cardiac myxoma is still a clinical and technical challenge. A 61-year-old man who had an embolic stroke in the left middle cerebral artery was admitted to the Third Poeple′s Hospital of Huizhou. The initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 16. He received endovascular thrombectomy after intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) one hour after stroke onset. No intracranial hemorrhage developed. Pathological study of embolus showed a myxoma. A cardiac mass was found in the left atrium and removed surgically three weeks after stroke. Pathological study of the tumor showed a myxoma. At the one-month follow-up after excision of myxoma, the NIHSS score was 1 and the modified Rankin scale score was 0. No recurrence of embolism occurred after surgical resection. Endovascular thrombectomy after intravenous rt-PA (bridging therapy) for embolic stroke due to cardiac myxoma is safe and effective, and early resection of atrial myxoma can effectively avoid recurrence of cerebral infarction.
