Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of microneedle radiofrequency combined with supramolecular salicylic acid in improving facial photoaging.Methods:Thirty patients treated for facial photoaging were randomly divided into the combined treatment group and the microneedle radiofrequency group. All patients were female, aged between 30 and 50 years, with an average age of (39.4±4.1) years. The combined treatment group was treated with microneedle radiofrequency combined with supramolecular salicylic acid, and the Microneedle radiofrequency group was treated with microneedle radiofrequency alone. The patients were followed up 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 28 days and 3 months after treatment. The results of VISIA, skin physiology and patients' satisfaction were used to compare the two groups of patients after treatment.Results:After 3 months of treatment, the skin pores (11.98±2.14 vs. 15.54±1.52), brown spots (12.40±1.85 vs. 15.84±1.42), ultraviolet spots (6.74±0.87 vs. 11.20±1.70), skin physiological status (transepidermal water loss): 11.84±1.80 vs 13.09±1.96 g/(h·m) 2, stratum corneum water content: 84.91±2.86 % vs 80.29±3.58 %, melanin index: 110.07±15.02 vs. 122.30±9.97, erythema index: 220.43±19.69 vs. 236.30±16.55), elasticity (75.98±3.94 vs. 69.89±3.58), epidermal thickness (1401.33±178.43 vs. 1217.13±139.77), skin color improvement (effective rate 86.7% vs. 40.0%) and patients' satisfaction (total satisfaction was 93.3% vs 67.0%) in the combined treatment group were significantly superior than those in the microneedle radiofrequency group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The reaction of moderate and severe erythema (the incidence rate 40.0% vs. 86.7%) and edema (the incidence rate 26.7% vs. 80.0%) in the combined treatment group was also significantly lower than that in the microneedle radiofrequency group ( P<0.05). No adverse pigmentation was reported in both groups after treatment. Conclusions:The combination of microneedle radiofrequency and supramolecular salicylic acid in the treatment of facial photoaging has definite clinical effect and high safety, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To explore the correlation between the occupational coping self-efficacy and family-work enrichment. Methods In June 2017, totally 58 male nurses were recruited by convenient sampling method and investigated by the Occupational Coping Self-efficacy Scale for nurses and Work-family Enrichment Questionnaire. Pearson correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were used to analyze the effect of family-work enrichment on male nurses' professional coping self-efficacy. Results The mean scores of male nurses' occupational coping self-efficacy and work-family enrichment were (32.81±4.15) and (21.50±3.73) respectively. Pearson correlation analysis showed that each dimension of work-family enrichment was significantly correlated to occupational coping self-efficacy (r=0.592,P< 0.001). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that all the dimensions of work-family enrichment could explain 33.5% of the variance of male nurses' occupational coping self-efficacy. Conclusions Male nurses' occupational coping self-efficacy is closely related to family-work enrichment.

BACKGROUND: The connection between Natural killer(NK)-cells and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation(allo-BMT)has aroused increasing attention.OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of NK cells on graft rejection,hematopoietic and immune reconstitution in mouse undergoing allo-BMT.METHODS: Lethally and nonlethally irradiated BALB/c(H-2d)mice were transplanted with C57BL/6(H-2b)bone marrow plus donor peripheral T cells and/or NK cells.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with lethally irradiated and allo-BMT group without infusion of NK cells,the survival rate in lethally irradiated and allo-BMT group with infusion of NK cells significantly enhanced; leukocytes count,expression level of CD19+and CD34+cell count recovered rapidly; expression level of H-2b*cell obviously increased.Expression level of CD34"cell in the group with infusion of NK cells was obviously lower than that of the group without infusion of NK cells at 28 days after transplantation,but there was no significant difference between the 2 groups at 60 days(P > 0.05).In nonlethally irradiated and allo-BMT group without NK cell infusion,expression level of H-2b*cell significantly decreased at 30 days after transplantation,and reduced to before transplantation level at 60 days; while expression of H-2b+cell yet could be detected with more than 80% at 60 days after transplantation in group infused with high and low concentration of NK cells.In alIo-BMT mice,alloreactive NK cell inhibits graft rejection,enhances engraftment,promotes the reconstitution of hematopoiesis and immunity,and increases survival rates.

Objective To investigate the effect of Pingfei Oral Liquid (POL) on the distribution of mast cells (MCs) and the expression of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the lung tissue of radiation pneumonia rats. MethodsForty-five SD rats were randomized into 3 groups : normal control,model group and POL group. The rat model of radiation lung fibro-sis was set up by a single X-ray dose of 20Gy irradiation over the whole chest of the rats. POL (20 g·kg-1·d-1,once a day, five times a week) was given orally one week before irradiation and the treatment lasted 5 weeks. MCs in the lung tissue were stained with toluidine blue firstly and then were counted 2, 4 and 8 weeks after irradiation. IL-6 protein expression of lung tissue was measured by immunohistochemical assay 8 weeks after irradiation, and mRNA ex-pression was determined with RT-PCR 4 weeks after irradiation. ResultsIt's showed the aggregation of large amount of pulmonary mast cells and increase of IL-6 protein expression 8 weeks after irradiation (P < 0.01).IL-6 mRNA expression in the irradiated lung of rats increased 4 weeks after irradiation (P < 0. 01). POL could reduce the aggrega- tion of MCs (P < 0. 01) and the expression of IL-6 protein (P < 0. 01) and mRNA (P < 0. 05) in the lung tissue. ConclusionPOL can prevent radiation pneumonia in rats by reducing the aggregation of mast cells and inhibiting IL-6 expression in the lung tissue.

Objective To investigate effect of first, second, and third trimester placental factors (PF) on CD4, CCR5, and CXCR4 expression in human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), and to explore their influence on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) vertical transmission.Methods Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were treated with first, second,and third trimester PF (concentration 25%) respectively for 24 hours. The expression of CD4, CCR5,and CXCR4 in PBLs, and the percentages of CCR5+, CXCR4+,and CCR5+CXCR4+ cells in peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes were determined with flow cytometry.Results All trimester PFs reduced CCR5 expression in PBLs. The efficiency of the first trimester PF was higher than that of the second and third trimester PF. The percentage of CCR5+ cells in peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes of PF groups was significantly lower than that of the control group, and the percentage of CCR5+ cells in peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes of the first trimester PF group was significantly lower than that of the second and third trimester group. The percentages of CCR5+CXCR4+ cells in peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes of PF groups were significantly decreased as compared with the control group, and the percentage of CCR5+CXCR4+ cells in peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes of the first trimester PF group was significantly lower than that of the third trimester PF group.Conclusion PF can reduce the expression of CCR5 in human PBLs and peripheral blood CD4+ lymphocytes, indicating that PF might reduce R5 virus infection via preventing HIV entry, and might play an important role in reducing R5 virus intrauterine infection.

AIM: To investigate the potential of murine epidermal stem cell (ESC) differentiation after seeded in a biodegradable carrier and implanted subcutaneously into syngeneic recipient mice. METHODS: ES cells were induced in vitro to differentiate into ESCs. After stained with a fluorescent dye Hoechst 33342, these ESCs were seeded into a polyglycolic acid (PGA) net containing collagen gel, functioning as a cell carrier, and implanted subcutaneously into 129/J mice, which were syngeneic to these stem cells. RESULTS: The ESCs kept alive in the implant when observed under a fluorescent microscopy 3 weeks or longer after implantation, and could differentiate into hair follicle - like structure,glandular structure, and gave rise to additional structures displaying features resembling native dermis. No apparent rejection or severe side effects were observed at least 10 weeks post- implantation. CONCLUSION: It is feasible to use these ESCs as seed cells in the study to fabricate dermal equivalent having the potential to develop dermal appendages.

BACKGROUND: Researches on the pathogenesis and pathological changes of rheumatoid arthritis(RA) have achieved significant progress in recent years. But traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) has unique advantage in RA therapy.OBJECTIVE: To study effects of overall alkali in tongbiling(TBL) on the proliferation of lymphocytes and the transferrin receptor of T lymphocytes (CD71) to explore the mechanism of TBL on the modulation of cell immunity.DESIGN: A completely randomized grouping design and an explorative study by employing cells as subjects.SETTING: Sixth internal medicine department of a TCM university,center of tissue transplantation and immunology college of life science of a university PARTICIPANTS: The study was conducted in the central laboratory (tertiary laboratory of National TCM Administrator) of the first affiliated hospital of Guangzhou TCM medical university between July 2002 and August 2003. Ten clean male SD rats were selected.METHODS: Lymphocyte was separated from rat inguinal lymph node for culture. Concanavalin(ConA) was used for 72-hour stimulation. The impacts of overall alkali TBL on lymphocyte proliferation were tested by MTT.The expression of T lymphocyte CD71 was tested by flow cytometer after 48-hour stimulation of phorbol 12,13 -dibutyrate(PDB) or ConA.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The impacts of overall alkali TBL on lymphocyte proliferation and T cell activation.RESULTS: Different concentration of overall alkali TBL could significantly inhibit the proliferation of lymphocytes under ConA stimulation. PDB and ConA-activated T lymphocyte CD71 + expressions were significantly higher than that of blank control group(P<0.01) . CD3+ CD71 + expressions [(62.03±1.51) %,(25.28±1.57) %,(20. 29±1.72)%] activated by ConA under different concentration of overall alkali TBL(50,100,200 mg/L)were significantly lower than(72.03±1.28)% of BPS-positive control group (P<0. 05). CD3 + CD71 + expressions activated by PDB under 100 mg/Land 200 mg/L of overall alkali TBL were significantly lower than that of phosphate buffer solution (PBS-)positive control group(P<0.05). Different concentration of overall alkali TBL had significant down-regulated effects on CD71 expression in T lymphocyte activated by PDB or ConA and there was also a significant dose-effect relationship(P<0. 05). The inhibition on ConA-activated CD71 expression was stronger than that of PDB.CONCLUSION: Overall alkali TBL can inhibit the abnormal proliferation of T lymphocyte and its mechanism might be realized through its inhibition on transferrin receptor.
