Advances in the research of effects of mesenchymal stem cells, exosomes, and platelet-rich plasma in wound repair / 中华烧伤杂志

Due to difficult healing, wounds become chronic diseases in many patients, and bring heavy burden to family and society in China. Although there are many studies about wound repair at present, its mechanism remains unclear. An increasing number of studies showed that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), exosomes, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) play different important roles in the regulation of different phases of wound repair. This review focuses on the function and mechanism of MSCs, exosomes, and PRP in wound repair.

Transplantation of compound tissue flap of toe to reconstruct the thumb with necrosis caused by electric burns in four patients / 中华烧伤杂志

From January 2010 to December 2017, 4 patients of thumb with necrosis caused by electric burns (all male, aged from 31 to 58 years) were admitted to our hospital, with 1 patient of second degree injury of right thumb, 2 patients of third degree injury of right thumb, and 1 patient of third degree injury of left thumb. Routine debridement under general anesthesia was performed within 7 days after injury. The compound tissue flap of contralateral second toe was transplanted to reconstruct the thumb with third degree defect, and compound tissue flap of ipsilateral distal hallex was transplanted to reconstruct the thumb with second degree defect. Dorsalis pedics artery was anastomosed with radial artery, saphenous vein or dorsalis pedics vein was anastomosed with cephalic vein. The donor site was transplanted with split-thickness skin graft from autologous thigh. All the tissue flaps and skin grafts survived in 2 weeks after surgery. Within 1 year of follow-up, the reconstructed thumbs can achieve radial abduction and palmar abduction with good function. Reconstruction of thumb with free transplantation of compound tissue flap of toe is a good method to repair thumb with necrosis caused by electric burn.

Research progress of application of whole blood in hemorrhagic shock resuscitation of combat casualties / 中华创伤杂志

Blood transfusion is an important resuscitation method for combat casualties with severe hemorrhagic shock.The optimal resuscitation plan directly influences the treatment effect of the wounded.Whole blood,once the main resuscitation fluid,was replaced by blood components for various reasons and became a supplement when there was insufficient blood components supply.With the latest evidence of whole blood application in combat casualties,the development of blood transfusion technology and the deepened clinical and basic research,we realize that the obstacles in the use of whole blood are not insurmountable and that whole blood has the advantages that blood components do not have in the treatment of combat casualties.Therefore,whole blood has once again become a research hotspot in the field of combat casualties treatment.This article reviews the development history,advantages and disadvantages of whole blood application in the resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock after combat casualties,with a view to provide reference for further clinical and basic research.

Effects of allogeneic mouse adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell-microporous sheep acellular dermal matrix on healing of wound with full-thickness skin defect in mouse and the related mechanism / 中华烧伤杂志

Objective@#To explore the allogeneic mouse adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC)-microporous sheep acellular dermal matrix (ADM) on healing of wound with full-thickness skin defect in mouse and the related mechanism.@*Methods@#One Kunming mouse was sacrificed by cervical dislocation to collect adipose tissue from inguinal region. Mouse ADSCs were isolated from the adipose tissue and cultured in vitro. Cells of the third passage were identified by cell adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation. The expressions of CD73, CD90, CD105, and CD34 were analyzed by flow cytometry. After one sheep was sacrificed, microporous sheep ADM was prepared from sheep back using decellularization method and freezing-thawing method. A 12 mm diameter, round, full-thickness skin defect wound was made on the back of each one of 36 Kunming mice. The wounds were covered by microporous sheep ADM. The mice were divided into group ADSC and control (C) group with 18 mice in each group according to the random number table after surgery. A volume of 0.2 mL DMEM/F12 culture medium containing 1×106 ADSCs was injected between microporous sheep ADM and wound of mice in group ADSC. While 0.2 mL DMEM/F12 culture medium was injected between microporous sheep ADM and wound of mice in group C. On post surgery day (PSD) 12 and 17, wound healing rates of mice in the 2 groups were calculated. On PSD 7, 12, and 17, wound vascularization of mice in the 2 groups was observed under reverse irradiation of backlight. On PSD 7, 12, and 17, the wound granulation tissue of mice in group ADSC was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. On PSD 7, the thicknesses of granulation tissue of mice in the 2 groups was measured. On PSD 12 and 17, expressions of VEGF in wounds of mice in the 2 groups were detected by immunohistochemical method. The sample number was 6 in each group at each time point in the above experiments. Data were processed with t test and analysis of variance of factorial design.@*Results@#(1) After 7 days of adipogenic induction, lipid droplet was observed in cytoplasm using oil red O staining. After 21 days of osteogenic induction, black deposits of calcium salts were detected using silver nitrate staining. Expression rates of CD73, CD90, CD105, and CD34 in cells were 97.82%, 99.32%, 97.35%, and 5.88% respectively. The cells were identified as ADSCs. (2) The wound healing rates of mice in group ADSC on PSD 12 and 17 [(78±6)%, (98±3)%] were significantly higher than those in group C [(60±9)%, (90±4)%, t=4.26, 4.46, P<0.01]. (3) On PSD 7, no vessel obviously grew into the center of wounds of mice in the 2 groups, while the granulation tissue has covered the wounds of mice in group ADSC. On PSD 12, the vessels were more abundant in wounds of mice in group ADSC than those in group C. On PSD 17, big vessels crossing the whole wounds was observed in wounds of mice in group ADSC, while big vessels were observed without crossing the whole wounds in wounds of mice in group C. (4) The wounds were covered with thin granulation tissue on PSD 7, and the granulation tissue began to thicken on PSD 12 and were covered by epidermis on PSD 17 in wounds of mice in group ADSC. On PSD 7, the granulation tissue in wounds of mice in group ADSC [(0.62±0.05) mm] was significantly thicker than that in group C [ (0.31±0.04) mm, t=12.27, P<0.01]. (5) On PSD 12 and 17, expressions of VEGF in wounds of mice in group ADSC [(80.7±2.2), (0.98±0.03)/mm2] were significantly than those in group C [(59.5±2.4), (81.5±2.6)/mm2, t=15.95, 14.14, P<0.01].@*Conclusions@#Allogeneic mouse ADSC-microporous sheep ADM can accelerate angiogenesis and growth of granulation tissue, thus promoting wound healing, which may be due to the increase of expression of VEGF.

Sheep acellular dermal matrix microparticle transplant for wound in rats / 中南大学学报(医学版)

To explore the healing effect on wound after transplanting sheep acellular dermal matrix (ADM) microparticle together with autoallergic skin microparticle.
 Methods: The rats were divided into three groups. Full-thickness skin wound at size about 4.0 cm×4.0 cm was generated on the back of every rat. Group A, the sheep ADM microparticle and autoallergic skin microparticle were mixed according to the ratio of 5:1, coating on wound of rat back. Group B, the sheep ADM microparticle and autoallergic skin microparticle were mixed according to the ratio of 2:1. Group C, autoallergic skin microparticle was only put on wound and be covered with heterograft. We observed the development of wound healing and compared the wound contraction rate among the three groups.
 Results: Three groups displayed same speed on extending of autoallergic skin microparticle and wound healing. The skin microparticles in Group A were wrapped up by around tissues and fused each other. A few renewal blood vessels were found in tissues, and ADM was replaced by around tissues and mixed with autoallergic skin microparticle. At the muscle surface, a few derma tissues distributed into point or patch, and the wound contraction rate was the lowest one among the 3 groups. The skin microparticles in Group B were mixed with more sheep ADMs than those in Group A. Some ADMs were wrapped by around tissues but could not been absorbed. Sheep ADM microparticles were free from around tissues, and the wound healing was delayed. The wound contraction rate in Group B was higher than that in Group A. The wound healing in Group C was faster than that in Group B, but there were few derma tissues under the skin. The wound contraction rate was the highest one.
 Conclusion: Mixing sheep ADM microparticle with autoallergic skin microparticle according to the ratio of 5:1 is good for regenerating derma tissues, and it can improve healing effect of wound.

Effects of combined application of culture supernatant of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells and ciprofloxacin on Staphylococcus aureus in vitro / 中华烧伤杂志

Objective@#To explore the effects of combined application of culture supernatant of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) and ciprofloxacin on Staphylococcus aureus (SA) in vitro.@*Methods@#hUCMSCs were isolated from umbilical cord tissue of full-term healthy fetus after cesarean section and cultured. Cells in the third passage were used in the experiments after identification. SA strains isolated from wounds of burn patients in our burn wards were used in the experiments. Cells were divided into 0, 10, 100, and 1 000 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) groups according to the random number table (the same dividing method below). Cells were cultured with culture medium of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) after being treated with medium containing the corresponding mass concentrations of LPS for 12 h. At post culture hour (PCH) 6, 12, and 24, 6 wells of culture supernatant of cells in each group were obtained to measure the content of LL-37 with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Ninety blood agar plates were divided into ciprofloxacin control group (CC), ciprofloxacin+ supernatant group (CS), and ciprofloxacin+ supernatant+ LL-37 antibody group (CSL), with 30 blood agar plates in each group. Blood agar plates in group CC were coated with 1.5×108 colony forming unit (CFU)/mL bacteria solution prepared with normal saline. Blood agar plates in group CS were coated with 1.5×108 CFU/mL bacteria solution prepared with normal saline and culture supernatant of hUCMSCs (cultured by culture medium of MSCs, the same below) in double volume of normal saline. Blood agar plates in group CSL were coated with 1.5×108 CFU/mL bacteria solution prepared with normal saline, culture supernatant of hUCMSCs in double volume of normal saline, and 2.6 μL LL-37 antibody in the concentration of 2 μg/mL. At PCH 12, 24, and 48, 10 blood agar plates of each group were harvested to observe the distribution of SA colony on blood agar plate and to measure the diameter of bacterial inhibition ring of ciprofloxacin. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of ciprofloxacin against SA of each group was recorded. Fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) indexes of ciprofloxacin in groups CS and CSL at PCH 12, 24, and 48 were calculated, and the effect of synergy was evaluated. Data were processed with analysis of variance of factorial design, one-way analysis of variance, LSD-t test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Mann-Whitney U test.@*Results@#(1) At each PCH, the content of LL-37 in culture supernatant of cells in 10, 100, and 1 000 ng/mL LPS groups was higher than that in 0 ng/mL LPS group (with t values from 11.22 to 33.36, P values below 0.01); the content of LL-37 in culture supernatant of cells in 100 and 1 000 ng/mL LPS groups was higher than that in 10 ng/mL LPS group (with t values from 2.24 to 18.73, P<0.05 or P<0.01); the content of LL-37 in culture supernatant of cells in 1 000 ng/mL LPS group was higher than that in 100 ng/mL LPS group (with t values from 12.46 to 14.70, P values below 0.01). (2) At PCH 12, 24, and 48, the bacterial colonies in groups CC, CS, and CSL began to integrate over time. At PCH 12, 24, and 48, the diameters of bacterial inhibition ring of ciprofloxacin in group CC were 26, 24, and 23 mm, respectively, with no obvious change. At PCH 12, 24, and 48, the diameters of bacterial inhibition ring of ciprofloxacin in groups CS and CSL were 82, 71, 68 mm, and 74, 59, 56 mm, respectively, significantly longer than those of group CC. (3) At each PCH, the MIC of ciprofloxacin against SA was significantly higher in group CC than in groups CS and CSL (with Z values from 6.22 to 6.71, P values below 0.01); the MIC of ciprofloxacin against SA was significantly higher in group CSL than in group CS (with Z values all equal to 6.72, P values below 0.01). (4) FIC indexes of ciprofloxacin in groups CS and CSL at PCH 12, 24, and 48 were 0.011, 0.032, 0.032, and 0.122, 0.350, 0.350, respectively. The results indicated that culture supernatant of hUCMSCs had synergistically antibacterial effect on ciprofloxacin.@*Conclusions@#hUCMSCs can secrete LL-37, and the secretion level is increased with increase of LPS concentration. Combination of culture supernatant of hUCMSCs and ciprofloxacin can decrease the dosage of ciprofloxacin in resisting SA. Once LL-37 is neutralized, the synergistically antibacterial effect of culture supernatant of hUCMSCs is decreased.

Advances in the research of basic study and clinical application of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells / 中华烧伤杂志

Since the discovery of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC) in more than ten years, a great progress has been made from its basic research to clinical application. Compared with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, ADSCs are more abundant in reserve, easier to obtain with fewer injuries and less complications. These cells have multiple differentiation potential and can differentiate into adipocytes, chondrocytes and osteoblasts with the influence of different inducing factors. Early studies of ADSCs mainly focused on the ability of multi-directional differentiation, espe-cially on the regeneration of bone defects and cartilage tissue. At present, the researches mainly focus on immunoregulation and paracrine function of ADSCs. Although ADSCs have made a great progress in clinical application, the cell preparation, use pattern, and mechanisms in clinical treatment are not clear. This paper elaborates on these issues.

Toxicity studies in vivo and in vitro for sheep skin acellular dermal matrix / 中南大学学报(医学版)

To detect the toxic reaction degree for sheep acellular dermal matrix (ADM) in vivo or vitro by using hemolytic, pyrogen and cell-cytotoxic reaction experiments, respectively.
 Methods: Leach liquor of cross-linked and non-cross-linked sheep ADMs were set for cross-linked group and non-cross-linked group, respectively, with a positive control group (10 mL sterile water for injection in test tube) and a negative control group (10 mL 0.9% sodium chloride solution in test tube). The supernatants were obtained from each group and were measured for the absorbance. The hemolysis degree was calculated; 16 New-Zealand rabbits were selected and then divided into 4 groups, A, B, C and D group. The leach liquor of cross-linked and non-cross-linked sheep ADMs were injected into bodies of the 6 New-Zealand rabbits in the A and B groups, and then the body temperatures were measured in every half hour after injection, 6 times in total. The value of highest temperature among 6 measurements minus the normal temperature was the fever degree for the body temperature. Based on these fever degree, the criterion of biological pyrogen reaction for sheep ADM pyrogen experiment was evaluated; the mice fibroblasts were collected during logarithmic phase and were cultured in the nutrient medium containing sheep ADM leach liquor with different density. The absorbance was measured to evaluate relative growth rate for fibroblast.
 Results: The hemolysis degree for the group A and B are less than 5%. The summary of fever degree for New-Zealand rabbits were lower than 1.8 ℃. MTT experiment showed that the toxicity of 10%-90% or 100% leach liquor nutrient medium with sheep ADM for the mice fibroblast is at level 1 or level 2. There was no significant difference between leach liquor of cross-linked and non-cross-linked sheep ADMs (P>0.05). The effects on relative growth rate for mice fibroblasts were minor. 
 Conclusion: The hemolytic and pyrogen reactions for the sheep ADMs embedded in New-Zealand rabbit were within the evaluation criterion, and the effects on vitality and growth rate for the fibroblast were not significant.
