This paper reviews the clinical application characteristics of artificial skin for external used in the treatment of burn wound at recent years. Skin is the important organ to protect the environmental stability in vivo, resist the outside invasion, evacuate moisture and regulate body temperature, as well as one component of immunity system. Subsequent to the burn injury, various damages of the organism may be related to the loss of skin barrier. Epidermal substitutes comprise the epidermal cells growing on the degradable matrix or polymer film; While dermal substitutes are shaped as a matrix with active bacterium or without cells, and they can induce the migration and proliferation of fibroblasts, together with the secretion of extracellular matrix; Full skin substitutes include both epidermal ones and dermal ones. With the progress on the biomedicines and the materials, the research regarding artificial skin also develops. However, it is still a key problem to construct an ideal artificial skin, which contains vessels and innervation, skin accessory structure and physiological function of normal skin.

Objective To investigate the deletion and mutation of Rb gene in human lung cancer.Methods Polymerace chain reaction (PCR ) and restriction enzyme analytic techniques were used to detect the exon 14-16 and 22-23 regions of Rb gene in 20 human lung cancer DNA samples and 3 normal human lung tissue DNA samples.Results Two deletions existed in the exon 14-16 regions of two lung cancer DNA samples.Conclusion Deletion of Rb gene is in existance in human lung cancer, especially in small cell lung cancer. This may be useful for studying the cause of lung cancer.

Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma 2004;0(11):-
Objective To develop a new method, the bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs)-mediated tissue engineering technique combined with mosaicplasty, for repair of osteochondral defects and integration of gaps. Methods BMSCs from 12 Chinese goats were cultured and proliferated in vitro. Prior to the BMSCs harvest, osteochondral defects, 5 mm in diameter and 3 mm in depth, were created in the femoral medial condyles of both the goat's hind limbs. When the mosaicplasty (osteochondral autograft transplantation) was performed, the BMSCs, which had been harvested and compounded with hyaluronic acid, were injected into the gaps between the osteochondral autografts in the left hind limb. The right hind limb which only received osteochondral autograft transplantation without BMSCs served as a control. At four, eight and 16 weeks post-operatively, samples of the repaired defects were harvested and assessed by histological evaluation, immunohistochemical analysis and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) quantification. In both groups 16 weeks post-operatively, the GAG quantification was analyzed by one-way ANOVA and least significant difference (LSD) method. Results At all the time points, the cartilage autografts in both groups survived as hyaline cartilage and presented no significant difference from the surrounding native cartilage. In the group filled with BMSCs compound, the gaps were replaced by regenerated hyaline cartilage and disappeared; however, in the control group, the osteochondral autografts were still distinct from the surrounding normal cartilage, though the gaps were replaced by fibrous tissue or fibrous cartilage. Immunohistochemical analysis of typeⅡcollagen showed positive staining in the matrix of transplanted and regenerated cartilage. The Alcian blue method also confirmed a significantly less GAG content in the regenerated tissue in gaps in the control group than in the treatment group and in the normal cartilage. Conclusion Since tissue engineering combined with mosaicplasty can promote gap integration and cartilage healing, the method can be an ideal way for osteochondral defect repair.

In this study, efforts were made to screen out the drug concentration of Sijunzi decoction (red ginseng) for in vitro intervention of H9c2 cardiomyocytes, select high, medium and low groups for subsequent experiments, establish the H2O2-induced myocardial cell apoptosis to investigate the protective effect of Sijunzi decoction (white/red ginseng), provide reference ginseng ingredients in Sijunzi decoction used to treat ischemic heart disease and reflect its curative effect, and observe its impacts on SOD, MAD, LDH and other indexes to preliminarily define the action mechanism. According to the results, red ginseng in Sijunzi decoction showed a better protective effect on H2O2-induced myocardial cell injury than that of white ginseng. Both of them could enhance SOD activity and reduce MDA production and LDH release, so as to significantly reduce the amount of apoptotic myocardial cells and play protective role.

Objective To explore the effects of endoplasmic reticulum stress response(ERS) and its related apoptosis on dopaminergic neurons death.Methods NGF treated-PC12 cells were treated with 6-OHDA,MPP+ and rotenone.MTT assay and flow cytometry were used to measure the cell viability and the rate of cells apoptosis induced by those neurotoxins at different concentrations and times.The expressions of ERS-related gene XBP1,Grp78,CHOP,caspase-12 in drug-treated group and reserpine preincubation group were determined by RT-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry.Results After exposing to different concentration toxins,the vitality of PC12 cells was decreased by 52% at 100?mol/L 6-OHDA,by 44% at 75?mol/L MPP~+,and by 40% at 20 nmol/L rotenone for 24 hours respectively and ws decreased in a dose dependent manner. FCM assay confirmed time-dependent cell apoptosis.The apoptotic cells ratio of 24 h groups were (31.22?3.21)%,(27.46?2.35)%,(29.26?2.53)%,respectively(P<0.01).In 6-OHDA groups,the gene expressions of XBP1,Grp78 were approximately 2-fold increased after 8 h exposure, CHOP reached peak level at 16 h(149.5?3.3% vs 35.9?1.8%,P<0.01).The transcription level of caspase-12 was significantly higher than normal control at 16h[(95.4?2.8% vs(23.8?3.0)%, P<0.01],but was alleviated by reserpine prcincubation(62.15?4.3%,P<0.05).The increased expressions of Grp78 and CHOP after drug exposure were confirmed by immunochemistry stain.The similar results were observed in MPP~+ and rotenone groups.Conclusions The excessive ERS and ERS-activated cell apoptosis pathway may be involved in selective death of dopaminergic neurons.

AIM To study the influence of ginkgo biloba exocarp polysaccharides(GBEP) on p53 gene expression and telomerase activity of human gastriccancer SGC 7901 cells in vitro . METHODS The p53 gene expression level of human gastriccancer SGC 7901 cells were measured by immunohistochemistry ABC. The telomerase activity of human gastriccancer SGC 7901 cells were measured by TRAP ELISA. RESULTS GBEP(80~160 mg?L -1 ,48 h) inhibited the expression of mutated type p53 genes and telomerase activity of human gastriccancer SGC 7901 cells. CONCLUSION The action mechanism of GBEP that inhibited the proliferation of SGC 7901 cells may relate to its down regulation effect on the expression of p53 genes and telomerase activity of human gastriccancer SGC 7901 cells.
