镁离子对鼠角质细胞生长和分化的影响

利用无血清培养基培养角质细胞，研究Mg^2 对鼠角质细胞生长和分化的影响。实验结果表明，培养基中Mg^2 浓度为5．0mmol／L时，细胞贴壁率、克隆形成率明显增加，细胞分化比例和老化比例均达到最低。当Mg^2 浓度达到10．0mmol／L时，细胞增殖水平没有显著提高，角质细胞分化比例和老化比例却有一定程度的提高。培养基中加入一定浓度的Mg^2 能够刺激角质细胞的增殖，抑制角质细胞的分化，并且延缓细胞的老化。     

Antimicrobial skin peptides and proteins

Human skin is permanently exposed to microorganisms, but rarely infected. One reason for this natural resistance might be the existence of a ‘chemical barrier’ consisting in constitutively and inducibly produced antimicrobial peptides and proteins (AMPs). Many of these AMPs can be induced in vitro by proinflammatory cytokines or bacteria. Apart from being expressed in vivo in inflammatory lesions, some AMPs are also focally expressed in skin in the absence of inflammation. This suggests that non-inflammatory stimuli of endogenous and/or exogenous origin can also stimulate AMP synthesis without inflammation. Such mediators might be ideal ‘immune stimulants’ to induce only the innate antimicrobial skin effector molecules without causing inflammation.

自体细胞来源的组织工程皮肤及其实验研究

利用患者自体来源的皮肤细胞,在经过短时间的体外培养后构建组织工程皮肤,并对其移植后的转归进行动物实验观察.分离培养头皮中的角质形成细胞及创面来源的成纤维细胞,并在体外进行传代扩增.利用三维立体培养系统构建复合细胞膜片,移植于裸鼠背部全层缺损创面,以单层细胞膜片为对照,对其转归进行大体及病理学观察.体外分离培养的皮肤细胞在体外扩增2周后即可用于构建复合细胞膜片,在移植覆盖裸鼠全层皮肤创面后,伤口愈合良好,移植2月后的病理结果显示皮肤结构明显优于单层膜片移植.证明利用患者自体来源的皮肤细胞可快速构建组织工程皮肤,有望成为治疗大面积深度烧伤患者的途径之一.     

组织工程化大鼠皮肤的构建

本研究应用组织工程学技术构建了具有完整表皮和真皮结构的组织工程化大鼠皮肤。在电化学工作站中，按照吡咯单体浓度0.05mol/L、聚合时间500s、电流10mA的条件制备聚吡咯膜，采用胰蛋白酶消化法从新生SD大鼠皮肤中分离获得朊细胞并种植于聚吡咯膜上，导电培养获得较多数量的角朊细胞，将Ⅰ型胶原蛋白醋酸溶液与大鼠皮肤成纤维细胞相混合培养14d，形成胶原蛋白－成纤维细胞凝胶真皮模型，将角朊细胞于真皮模型上浸没式培养5d后，继续气－液面培养14d，经固定、切片与染色，在光镜和扫描电镜下可见所构建的真皮模型与新生大鼠真皮具有类似的结构；而大鼠皮肤模型则具有与正常新生大鼠皮肤相类似的结构，包括完整的真皮层和表皮层，表皮中含有完善的基底层、棘细胞层、颗粒层与角度层，该模型的建立，为组织工程化人皮肤的构建和临床应用奠定了基础。     

Heat evolution of cultured human keratinocytes

Summary The heat production of normal and transformed human epidermal keratinocytes precultured in Petriperm ^tm tissue culture dishes was measured calorimetrically. For this purpose, the membrane at the bottom of the culture dish was cut out aseptically and put into a microcalorimeter vessel with the cell layer inwards. A continuous heat output of (83±12) pW/cell was measured for normal keratinocytes from a confluent primary culture. A value of (134±35) pW/cell was obtained when the transformed kerationocyte line SV-K14 was used. The method described in this paper is simple, leads to reproducible results, and can be easily adapted to the calorimetric study of other mammalian cells in vitro.     

In vitro culture of chick down feather bulbi: A tool to obtain proliferating and differentiating keratinocytes in an organotypic structure

Summary Chick down feather bulbi can be cultured in different culture systems. Morphological analysis and³H-thymidine incorporation measurements prove that the majority of cells are viable epithelial cells.     

Effects of serotonin and ketanserin on the functional morphology of chick down feather bulbi in vitro

Summary Chick feather bulbi cultured in vitro showed an increased DNA synthesis and a delayed keratinization after treatment with ketanserin, a serotonin₂ antagonist with wound-healing properties. In contrast, serotonin stimulates keratinization of the keratinocytes in the bulbus.
