Chinese Journal of Experimental Traditional Medical Formulae 2023;29(23):158-165
ObjectiveTo study the characteristics of animal models of acute lung injury caused by non-physical factors, so as to provide a reference for the standardization of the preparation of such animal models and lay a foundation for the research on the pathogenesis and the diagnosis and treatment of acute lung injury. MethodThe articles about the animal experiments of acute lung injury published in the last decade were retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang, SinoMed, VIP, and PubMed with the theme terms of "acute lung injury" and "animal model". The animal species, drugs used in modeling, modeling period, methods used in molding, model standards, and model evaluation indicators were summarized, and Excel was used for the frequency analysis. ResultA total of 338 articles were included in this study. The results of the frequency analysis showed that SD rats/C57BL/6 mice were mainly used to establish the animal models of acute lung injury. Male mice were mostly used for modeling, and the commonly used modeling agent was lipopolysaccharides (LPS). In most cases, the modeling lasted for 6 h after drug administration. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was mainly used for the observation of histological changes in the lungs, which were taken as the criteria for modeling. The established models were mainly evaluated based on lung dry/wet weight ratio, lung index, morphological changes in the lung tissue, myeloperoxidase (MPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and levels of inflammatory cytokines in the serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). ConclusionThe models of acute lung injury were mostly prepared by intraperitoneal injection of LPS (5 mg·kg-1) in SD rats and tracheal instillation of LPS (5 mg·kg-1) in C57BL/6 mice, which were praised for the simple operation, high success rate, and consistent with the pathogenesis of acute lung injury. This study provides a reference for the basic research on acute lung injury by animal experiments.

Objective:
To explore the relationship between genotype and phenotype of ABCB11 deficiency.
Methods:
Clinical data of two siblings with ABCB11 deficiency were retrospectively analyzed. Related literature from PubMed, CNKI and Wangfang databases was reviewed to date (up to August 2017) with 'ABCB11 gene’ or 'bile salt export pump’, 'cholestasis’ and 'child’ as key words.
Results:
The patients were siblings. Both of them presented as jaundice, pruritus and hepatosplenomegaly since 3 days after birth. Significant laboratory findings on admission of the older sister included high total bilirubin, 170 µmol/L;conjugated bilirubin, 115.8 µmol/L;alanine aminotransferase, 168 U/L;total bile acid 186.3 µmol/L and normal gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. While routine laboratory data of the younger brother were as follows: total bilirubin, 148.8 µmol/L;conjugated bilirubin, 96.3 µmol/L;alanine aminotransferase, 232.8 U/L;total bile acid 226 µmol/L, and normal gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase.Both received ursodeoxycholic acid and fat-soluble vitamins. Liver pathology of the younger brother showed giant hepatocytes with ballooning degeneration, focal necrosis and intrahepatic cholestasis. Both the patients harbor the same compound heterozygous mutations in ABCB11 gene, c.145C>T (p.Q49X) and c.1510G>A (p.E504K). The sister is 9 years old now, with normal liver function. Jaundice faded around 3 months after birth, pruritus relieved at age 5, and medications was stopped since then. The brother progressed to liver failure after an operation on perianal abscess when he was 8-month-old, and received living-related liver transplantation when he was 9 month and 20 days old (from his mother). Now he is 1 year and 5 months old, with normal liver function. Both are under our follow-up. Literature review revealed 18 ABCB11 deficiency patients from 7 families who had apparent different prognoses, within each family the siblings had the same ABCB11 gene mutation. Seven cases relieved after ursodeoxycholic acid therapy and/or partial external biliary diversion, 5 received orthotopic liver transplantation, 2 developed hepatocellular carcinoma and 4 cases died in childhood.
Conclusions
The clinical manifestations of ABCB11 deficiency may vary greatly in patients carrying the same genotype, even in siblings. Patients should be managed in individualized maner.

Objective:
To investigate the effect of local autologous dermal fibroblasts transplantation on hypertrophic scar formation and wound healing quality in early scar formation. To explore the feasibility of fibroblasts for prevention and treatment of hypertrophic scar.
Methods:
Dermal fibroblasts were isolated from the dorsal skin tissue of New Zealand white rabbits by mechanical method combined with enzyme digestion. Passage 3 cells were induced to differentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes. The complete epithelialization time and hypertrophic scar formation after full-thickness skin defect were confirmed by pre-experiment study. In the experiment, 6 rabbits were used, left ear as experimental group and right ear as control group. In the experimental group, the passage 4 dermal fibroblasts labeled with 5-bromodeoxyuridine (5-BrdU) were injected subcutaneously around the wound and hypertrophic scar on 20 d (day 2 after epithelialization) and 30 d (most obvious scar hyperplasia) after surgery. As a control group, physiological saline was injected following the same protocol. On 37 days after surgery, the hypertrophic scar tissue were harvested and assessed by gross view and histological examination. The transplanted cells were detected by immunofluorescence staining, transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) and decorin(DCN) mRNA expression were assayed by real-time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and the protein expression of TGF-β1、DCN、Collagen type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ were tested by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).
Results:
Compared with the control group, the scar in the experimental group was flatter and softer, the color was slightly lighter, and the volume was reduced. The histological results showed that compared with the control group, the number of fibroblasts and inflammatory cells in the superficial dermis was reduced, the proliferation of connective tissue and collagen deposition were reduced, and the basal cells and collagen fibers were arranged in order in the experimental group. The results of RT-PCR showed that TGF-β1 mRNA expression level in the hypertrophic scar tissue reduced significantly and DCN increased significantly in the experimental group, compared with the control group (
