Objective To explore the relationship between the expression of EIIIA + fibronectin in incised wound of rat’s skin and injury time. Methods The wounding model was established by cutting the dor-salskin of 48 adult SD rats. The rats were sacrificed atthe pre-setinjury time as immediately, 0. 5h, 1h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, and 8 h. The skin sam ples were taken at the m argin of wound. The expression of the EIIIA + fibronectin was detected by im m unohistochem istry and W estern blotting and the relationship be-tween its expression and injury time was observed. Results The expression of EIIIA + fibronectin was not observed im m ediately. The basal cell of skin began to showpositive expression 0. 5 h after injury. W ith the extension of injury time, positive staining became stronger. The value of relative optical density was gradually increased with prolonged injury time by the W estern blotting analysis. Conclusion The expres-sion of EIIIA + fibronectin could be used for estimation of injury time in the early stage of skin injury.

Objective To present clinical results of endovascular treatment of total iliac vein occlusions and to discuss the technique details of this treatment. Methods From Feb 2006 to Aug 2010,15 patients with chronic total occlusive lesions of the iliac vein and adjacent vein segments underwent endovascular treatment. Average age was (62 ±7) years (range 35 to 81 years), the male/female ratio was 12: 3. Clinical score of CEAP was grade 3 in 33. 3%, grade 4 in 40%, grade 5 in 13. 3%, and grade 6 in 13.3%. Venography showed left iliac vein was occluded in all 15 patients, common femoral vein was occluded in 14 patients, and superior femoral vein was occluded in 9 patients, however profounder femoral vein was patent in these patients with superior femoral vein being occluded. Results No postoperative major morbidity or mortality was seen. The technique success rate was 93. 3%. Treatment failure was caused in one case for a wrong selection of the femoral vein approach site. The average length of stent was 18. 4 cm.In 12(80. 0% ) stents crossed the inguinal ligament. The average follow-up time was 11.6 ± 2. 4 months.The primary patency rates of the stents at 6 months were 92. 9%. 10 (66. 7% ) patients were asympotomatic, 3(20% )were improved, 1 (6. 7% ) was unchanged, and 1 (6.7%) was worse, compared to before intervention. Conclusions Endovscular recanalization and stent placement is a safe and effective treatment for chronic total occluded iliac veins, with good patency, significant symptom resolution, and minimal morbidity in the short term follow-up.

Objective To study the effect of single chain variable fragment (ScFv) antibody to EC3-4 fragment of desmoglein (Dsg) 3 in a mouse model of pemphigus vulgaris.Methods The ScFv an- tibody to EC3-4 fragment of Dsg-3 was injected subcutaneously into neonatal BALB/c mice at different time points;the mice were then evaluated clinically,histopathologically and by direct immunoflorescence exami- nation for the development of lesions.Results When injected alone,the ScFv antibody did not induce the appearance of key clinical features of pemphigus vulgaris.The antibody also did not prevent the develop- ment of pemphigus vulgaris features induced by sera of patients with pemphigus vulgaris,regardless of the time point of injection of ScFv antibody.Conclusion The ScFv antibody to EC3-4 fragment of Dsg-3 lacks pathogenicity in neonatal BALB/c mice,and also could not inhibit the development of lesions induced by sera from patients with pemphigus vulgaris.

Objective To screen serum proteomic marker of hepatic echinococcosis, establish a diagnotic model of serum protein fingerprint patterns, and evaluate its clinical application for hepatic echinococcosis. Methods Serum samples from 68 patients with hepatic echinococcosis matched with 73 controls composed of 33 patients with liver diseases other than hepatic echinococcosis and 40 healthy people were collected. All subjects were divided into training group (37) and testing group (67). Serum protein profiling of patients with hepatic echinococcosis and controls were detected using surface enhanced laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry(SELDI-TOF-MS) and weak cation exchange protein chip(WCX2). Peak intensities were compared, in the training group, between 37 patients with hepatic echinococcosis and 37 controls, 5 patients with HCE and 5 patients with HAE, and 8 patients with hepatic echinococcosis before and after operation, respectively. ZJU-Protein Chip Data Analyze System(ZJU-PDAS) was used for data analysis and the model of serum protein fingerprint patterns was build by support vector machine (SVM). The sensitivity and specificity of the model for diagnosis of hepatic echinococcosis were verified by blind method on samples of testing group. Results There were nine different protein peak spectra between hepatic echinococcosis group and control group, of which eight protein peak spectra decreased in patient group, their relative molecular mass were 1044, 1047, 1073, 1075, 1338, 6453, 6649, 8714 m/z, respectively, while one protein peak spectrum(5651 m/z) increased(P < 0.05). The sensitivity,specificity, positive predictive and negative predictive value of the model validated by blind method were 77.4% (24/31), 66.7% (24/36), respectively. There were two different protein peak spectra between HCE group and HAE group, Their relative molecule mass were 8716 and 2751 m/z, respectively (P < 0.05). Six different proteins were detected from pre-operation group and post-operation group. Their relative molecular mass were 1297, 1505, 1525, 1534, 5921, 5941 m/z, respectively(P < 0.05). Conclusions It is a successful way to screen serum proteomic marker in patients with hepatic echinococcosis by SELDI-TOF-MS and Bio-informatics, and the marker has a potential clinical value in diagnosis and judging prognosis of hepatic echinococcosis.
