[Method] Healthy 40-day-old Landrace piglets were infected with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and euthanized on the 34, 7rd, 14th, 21st and 35th d post inoculation (DPI). The porcine skin-derived dendritic cells (DCs) were collected to analyze the transcrip- tional levels of molecules (LMP7, UBP, MHC-I, calreticulin) associated with endogenous antigen processing and presentation by using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (real-time FQ-PCR). [Result] The results showed that the level of LMP7 mR- NAs was reduced significantly on the 3DPI (P〈0.05); the level of UBP mRNAs was consistently up-regulated, which increased significantly on the 21DPI and 35DPI (P〈 0.05); the level of MHC-I mRNAs was significantly down-regulated on the 7DPI (P〈 0.05); the level of calreticulin mRNAs was up-regulated slightly without significant dif- ference. [Conclusion] PCV2 can inhibit the endogenous antigen processing and presentation ability of porcine skin-derived DCs at early stages of infection.展开更多

In this study, 3-[4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and lactate dehydro-genase (LDH) were tested to measure cell viability. Enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), glu-tathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), catalase (CAT) and xanthine oxidase (XOD) were determined biochemically. Total antioxidative capacity (T-AOC) and anti-superoxide anion capacity (A-SAC) were also determined. Ultrastructure of fibroblasts was observed under transmission electron microscope. The results showed that: UVB (1.176×10-4 J/cm2) suppressed the growth of fibroblasts and the introduction of PCF (0.25%-l%) before UVB reduced the suppression in a concentration-dependent manner. PCF could enhance the activities of SOD, GSH-PX and T-AOC as well as A-SAC. Also PCF could inhibit XOD activity, while it did not affect CAT activity. Ultrastructure of fibroblasts were damaged after UVB irradiation, concentration-dependent PCF reduced the destructive effect of UVB on cells. These results indicated that PCF can protect human dermal fibroblasts from being harmed by UVB irradiation via its antioxidant pro-erty.展开更多

Gut suture and human amnion collagen more resembled living tissue than did bovine collagen and were characterized by their cel1ularity and the presence of numerous capillaries. The Vicryl suture implants were quickly absorbed. Picrosirius polarization revealed the synthesis of host collagen by rat fibroblasts which immigrated into the gut suture and human amnion collagen implants. The authors suggest the potential of gut suture as a soft tissue substitute to improve linear skin contour deficits.展开更多

These antigens can be divided into several groups according to their nature like plant allergens, grasses, fungal allergens, pollen grains and house dust mite. Skin response to such allergens is associated with each other either by positive relation (positive correlation) or negative (inverse) relation. No previous papers found to discuss such correlations. In order to investigate these correlations, skin prick test of standard allergens solutions was carried out in 500 patients suffering allergic reactions of the age 12-60 years of both sexes. The results showed that there is a high significance of positive and negative correlations in skin response to allergens in the same group and with allergens of different groups suggesting that there is an induction or suppression of immune response. In conclusion the similarity or dissimilarity in the primary structure of some allergens in addition to gene-environment interaction may reflect positive/negative correlations between certain allergens that can influence the related allergic reactions.展开更多

PSC was characterized as a type I collagen, and its imino acid content was 193 residues/1 000 residues. PSC's denaturation temperature was -17.56℃ and Fourier transform infrared spectra confirmed the presence of triple helices. Solubility analysis showed good solubility at acidic pH (1-6) or low NaCl concentrations (≤2%). PSC showed scavenging activity against hydroxyl radicals and superoxide anions in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, PSC could protect D-galactose-induced skin aging by significantly controlling malondialdehyde formation and improving the activity of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase, glutathione, and hydroxyproline. PSC may be a promising antioxidant in appropriate applications.展开更多

Methods Dermatophagoides pterronyssinus allergen immunoCAP and UniCAP 100 System were used. The Sera Pool consisted of 20 Dermatophagoides pterronyssinus allergic patients sera, their specific IgE fluorescence values were between 12 505 and 24 776. Results Fluorescence value percentages decreased: 62.9%, 54.1%, 43.5%, 6.7%, 3.7%, 2.6%, 2.2%, and 1.4% respectively, when SDS concentrations were at 2%, 1%, 0.5%, 0.25%, 0.1%, 0.05%, 0.025%, and 0.01%. Fluorescence values decreased more than 5% with SDS concentrations equal to 0.25% or higher. PBS in 0.1 and 0.01 mol/L concentrations decreased fluorescence values 2.9% and 0.9% respectively. Conclusions SDS is a commonly used surfactants in allergen extract and re-dissolvent prepared allergen precipitation for RAST inhibition. Thus effects of surfactants (e.g. SDS) upon the RAST inhibition tests must be considered when they were used as re-dissolvent agents to improve protein resolution in RAST inhibition.展开更多
