Treatment effect of a tumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonist on 17 patients with Stevens-Johnson syndrome / 中华皮肤科杂志

Objective To estimate the treatment effect of a tumor necrosis factor ? alpha antagonist (etanercept) on Stevens?Johnson syndrome induced by drugs. Methods After exclusion of tuberculosis, hepatitis, severe infections and tumors, 17 patients with drug?induced Stevens?Johnson syndrome were treated with subcutaneous injections of 25 mg(initial dose, 50 mg)etanercept once every 3 days for 6 times. Meanwhile, supportive therapies and compound glycyrrhizin injections were given to counteract inflammation and protect the liver. Results All of the patients were cured. Body temperature in 15 febrile patients gradually decreased within 24- 48 hours after the first injection of etanercept, and returned to normal in 72 hours. The number of vesicles stopped increasing, and lesion color turned from bright red to dull red within 24 hours. Skin condition was evidently controlled within 72 hours, and skin appearance almost returned to normal after 2 weeks of treatment, and was completely restored after 4- 5 weeks. The recovery of mucous membrane was slower than that of skin. Serum aminotransferase levels gradually declined after the first dose of etanercept and almost returned to normal in 2-4 weeks in 14 patients. Serum levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine began to decrease after 1- 2 weeks of treatment. The serum level of tumor necrosis factor?alpha nearly dropped into or was maintained in the normal range within 3 weeks after the start of treatment. Conclusion Early usage of tumor necrosis factor?alpha antagonists at an adequate dose is beneficial to the rapid control of Stevens?Johnson syndrome.

A case of Muir-Torre syndrome presenting as keratoacanthoma and sebaceous adenoma / 中华皮肤科杂志

A 44-year-old male presented with a neoplasm on the buccal side of the right nasolabial fold for more than two months.Dermatological examination showed a hemispherical bulge sized 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm with central crater-like ulceration on the buccal side of the right nasolabial fold,as well as a crescent-shaped elevation measuring 1.5 cm × 2.5 cm above the hemispherical lesion.Histopathology of the hemispherical lesion revealed irregularly downward proliferation of epidermis,crater-like holes filled with eosinophilic keratinous plug in the center which were surrounded by collar-shaped epithelial cell projections.Small neutrophil abscesses were found in the clumps of epithelial cells,and massive lymphocyte infiltration with a clear bottom boundary was observed around the proliferating epithelial cells.Histopathologic examination of the crescent lesion showed multiple irregularly-shaped lobular-like structures of various sizes with sebaceous glands at different degrees of maturity in the mid dermis,which were surrounded by proliferating connective tissue.Immunohistochemical studies showed that the squamous cells stained positive for cytokeratin (CK),CK5,CK14,CK17,carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) in the keratoacanthoma,and the sebaceous cells for CK,CK5,CK14 and EMA in the sebaceous adenoma.The pathological diagnosis was keratoacanthoma and sebaceous adenoma.The patient was diagnosed with moderately and poorly differentiated rectal adenocarcinoma in 2008.A diagnosis of Muir-Torre syndrome presenting as keratoacanthoma and sebaceous adenoma was finally made.

Association between genetic polymorphisms of interleukin-12 p40 3' untranslated region and hepatitis C virus infection / 中华传染病杂志

Objective To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of interleukin-12 (IL-12) p40 3'untranslated region rs3212227 site and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Methods Patients with hepatitis C (n=127) were genotyped and analyzed for the SNP of IL-12 p40 rs3212227 using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and DNA sequencing. The serum HCV RNA levels of patients with hepatitis C were detected using real time fluorescence quantitative-polymerase chain reaction (FQPCR). Inter-group comparisons of genotype and allele frequency were analyzed using chi-square test.Results In patients with hepatitis C, the frequencies of AA, AC and CC genotypes of IL-12 p40 rs3212227 site were 34. 6% ,40. 9% and 24. 4% , respectively,and the frequencies of allele A, C of IL12 p40 rs3212227 site were 55.1% and 44. 9%, respectively. The frequency of rs3212227 C allele in patients with HCV RNA ≥2. 0× 106 copy/mL was higher than that in patients with HCV RNA <2. 0 ×106 copy/mL (χ2 =7. 367, P = 0. 007). The frequency of rs3212227 C allele in responders to interferon (IFN) therapy was lower than that in patients with nonresponse to IFN therapy (χ2 =4. 942,P=0. 026). Conclusions The SNP of rs3212227 is correlated with HCV infection. The carriers with C allele may be susceptible to HCV infection, while resistant to IFN therapy.
