Abstract
Adoptive transfer of alloantigen-specific immunomodulatory cells generated ex vivo with anti-CD80/CD86 mAbs (2D10.4/IT2.2) holds promise for operational tolerance after transplantation. However, good manufacturing practice is required to allow widespread clinical application. Belatacept, a clinically approved cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4-immunoglobulin that also binds CD80/CD86, could be an alternative agent for 2D10.4/IT2.2. With the goal of generating an optimal cell treatment with clinically approved reagents, we evaluated the donor-specific immunomodulatory effects of belatacept- and 2D10.4/IT2.2-generated immunomodulatory cells. Immunomodulatory cells were generated by coculturing responder human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) (50 × 106 cells) with irradiated donor PBMCs (20 × 106 cells) from eight human leukocyte antigen-mismatched responder–donor pairs in the presence of either 2D10.4/IT2.2 (3 μg/106 cells) or belatacept (40 μg/106 cells). After 14 days of coculture, the frequencies of CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and natural killer cells as well as interferon gamma (IFN-γ) production in the 2D10.4/IT2.2- and belatacept-treated groups were lower than those in the control group. The percentage of CD19+ B cells was higher in the 2D10.4/IT2.2- and belatacept-treated groups than in the control group. The frequency of CD4+CD25+CD127lowFOXP3+ T cells increased from 4.1±1.0% (preculture) to 7.1±2.6% and 7.3±2.6% (day 14) in the 2D10.4/IT2.2- and belatacept-treated groups, respectively (p<0.05). Concurrently, delta-2 FOXP3 mRNA expression increased significantly. Compared with cells derived from the no-antibody treated control group, cells generated from both the 2D10.4/IT2.2- and belatacept-treated groups produced lower IFN-γ and higher interleukin-10 levels in response to donor-antigens, as detected by enzyme-linked immunospot. Most importantly, 2D10.4/IT2.2- and belatacept-generated cells effectively impeded the proliferative responses of freshly isolated responder PBMCs against donor-antigens. Our results indicate that belatacept-generated donor-specific immunomodulatory cells possess comparable phenotypes and immunomodulatory efficacies to those generated with 2D10.4/IT2.2. We suggest that belatacept could be used for ex vivo generation of clinical grade alloantigen-specific immunomodulatory cells for tolerance induction after transplantation.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the effects of a combination treatment with narrow-spectrum intense pulsed light and fractional carbon dioxide laser on hypertrophic scar pruritus in clinic. Methods: A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. A total of 90 patients with hypertrophic scars conforming to the inclusion criteria who were hospitalized in our ward from March to December 2017 were divided into combination treatment group and control group according to the random number table, with 45 patients in each group. For scar pruritus, patients in control group were treated twice by narrow-spectrum intense pulsed light with a one-month interval, while patients in combination treatment group were firstly treated by narrow-spectrum intense pulsed light combined with fractional carbon dioxide laser once, and with narrow-spectrum intense pulsed light once one month later. Before and 3 months after treatment, scar pruritus was evaluated by the Visual Analogue Scale and the Four-item Itch Questionnaire, and the improvement of scar was assessed by photography. Three months after treatment, the treatment satisfaction of scar pruritus was self-rated by patients. Meanwhile, adverse effects were recorded during the procedures and follow-up periods. Data were processed with Chi-square test, paired t test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, and Fisher's exact probability test. Results: Before treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in scar pruritus degree evaluated by the Visual Analogue Scale and score distribution of scar pruritus location, extent, frequency, and sleep effect of the Four-item Itch Questionnaire between patients of two groups (Z=-1.08, -0.91, -0.03, -0.69, -1.49, P>0.05). Three months after treatment, there was reducing degree of scar pruritus of patients evaluated by the Visual Analogue Scale in control group or combination treatment group compared with before treatment within the same group (Z=-1.98, -4.65, P<0.05 or P<0.01), while the latter was more obvious than the former (Z=-2.14, P<0.05). There were reducing scores of scar pruritus extent and frequency of patients in control group, along with location, extent, frequency, and sleep effect of patients in combination treatment group compared with those before treatment within the same group (Z=-2.33, -2.34, -3.53, -4.96, -3.32, -4.84, P<0.05 or P<0.01). However, scores of scar pruritus location and sleep effect of patients in control group were similar to those before treatment within the same group (Z=-0.58, -1.34, P>0.05). The scores of scar pruritus location, extent, frequency, and sleep effect of patients were obviously lower in combination treatment group compared with control group (Z=-2.09, -2.69, -1.99, -2.23, P<0.05 or P<0.01). It was much better of scar improvement of patients in combination treatment group compared with control group (Z=-4.00, P<0.01). The percentages of treatment satisfaction of scar pruritus of patients with 0, 1%-25%, 26%-50%, 51%-75%, 76%-100% were 0, 2.2% (1/45), 17.8% (8/45), 48.9% (22/45), and 31.1% (14/45) respectively in combination treatment group, which were obviously better than 0, 11.1% (5/45), 53.3% (24/45), 28.9% (13/45), and 6.7% (3/45) in control group (Z=-4.42, P<0.01). During the treatment and follow-up periods, the adverse effect ratio of patients in control group was 6.7% (3/45), similar to 2.2% (1/45) of combination treatment group (P>0.05). Conclusions: The combination of narrow-spectrum intense pulsed light and fractional carbon dioxide laser can greatly reduce pruritus, improve effect of scar treatment, and bring higher patient satisfaction compared with narrow-spectrum intense pulsed light alone in treating hypertrophic scar pruritus.

Abstract
We investigate the dynamic structure factor of the melt of the well known glass former, As2Se3, using inelastic x-ray scattering for temperatures, T, [Formula: see text] K and momentum transfers Q from [Formula: see text] nm-1. An anomaly was observed at Q = 2.7 nm-1 ([Formula: see text] K) with, in the context of a simple model, both an abrupt change in frequency and an increased linewidth reminiscent of an anti-crossing in a solid. Comparison with structural information from reverse Monte Carlo modeling of x-ray diffraction data allows us to associate the disappearance of the anomaly at higher temperatures with a drop in the number of mechanical constraints per atom, n mc, to [Formula: see text] reminiscent of the threshold applicable for glass formation in rigidity theory. It is inferred that the surprising jump in the dispersion in the liquid may be correlated with a stiffness transition in a network glass.

Abstract
Traumatic scar is a common complication of skin injury, such as burn, trauma, and surgery. The mechanism for scar formation still remains unclear. Traumatic scar has a negative impact on the quality of patients' life, due to the appearance of scar always causes physical or/and psychological problems to patients. The treatments for scar include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and pressure, depending on the kind of scar present. Recently, a great progress in treating scar has been achieved by novel techniques with laser, intense pulsed light, micro-plasma radiofrequency, and ultrasound. The aim of this review is introducing the advances of these techniques for traumatic scars intervention.

Abstract
In recent years, researchers have found that CD26 (dipeptidyl peptidase 4) is closely related to the formation and development of many fibrotic diseases. Hypertrophic scar, keloid, and other skin fibrosis diseases are major problems nowadays, which may affect the patient's appearance and cause joints deformity and dysfunction due to scar contracture. This article briefly reviews the relationship between CD26 and hypertrophic scar and keloid to provide new insights into the treatment of skin fibrotic diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) receptor inhibitor SD-208 on human hypertrophic scar and its mechanisms. METHODS Scar fibroblasts were isolated from deprecated human hypertrophic scar tissue and then sub-cultured. Cells of the fifth passage were used in the following experiments. (1) Cells were divided into blank control group (BC) and 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 μmol/L SD-208 groups according to the random number table (the same grouping method below), with 6 wells in each group. Cells in group BC were added with 1 μL phosphate buffer solution, while cells in the latter four groups were added with 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 μmol/L SD-208, respectively. After being cultured for 12 hours, the proliferation activity of cells was detected by cell counting kit 8 and microplate reader (denoted as absorbance value). Suitable amount of substance concentration of SD-208 according to the results of proliferation activity of cells was chosen for the following experiments. (2) Another batch of cells were divided into group BC and 1, 3 μmol/L SD-208 groups and treated as in (1), with 8 wells in each group. The number of migration cells was detected by transwell method. (3) Another batch of cells were grouped and treated as in (2), and the microfilament morphology of cells was observed by rhodamine-phalloidin staining. (4) Another batch of cells were grouped and treated as in (2), and the protein expression of TGF-β1 was assessed with Western blotting. (5) Forty-eight BALB/c nude mice were divided into normal saline group (NS) and 1 μmol/L SD-208 group, and one longitudinal incision with length of 1 cm was made on their back. Then human hypertrophic scar tissue was embedded into the incision. On post injury day 7, multipoint injection of NS in a volume of 0.05 mL was performed in wounds of rats in group NS, while rats in 1 μmol/L SD-208 group were given 0.05 mL 1 μmol/L SD-208, once a day. On the day 0 (the same day), 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20 post first time of injection, the weight of 8 nude mice was weighed by electronic scale, and scar area was measured by vernier caliper and the ratio of rest scar area was calculated. (6) In week 1, 2, and 3 post first time of injection, the protein expression of TGF-β1 of human hypertrophic scar tissue was assessed with Western blotting. Data were processed with one-way analysis of variance and two independent-sample t test. RESULTS (1) The proliferation activity of cells in group BC, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 μmol/L SD-208 groups was respectively 1.00±0.03, 0.90±0.08, 0.68±0.11, 0.54±0.04, and 0.42±0.09, and the proliferation activity of cells in 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 μmol/L SD-208 groups was significantly lower than that in group BC (with t values from 2.9 to 22.1, P<0.05 or P<0.01). (2) The number of migration cells in 1, 3 μmol/L SD-208 groups was significantly less than that in group BC (with t values respectively 6.5 and 6.4, P values below 0.01). (3) Compared with that in group BC, fluorescence intensity of microfilaments of cells in 1, 3 μmol/L SD-208 groups was attenuated, and the pseudopod extended less. (4) The protein expressions of TGF-β1 of cells in group BC and 1, 3 μmol/L SD-208 groups were respectively 1.00±0.08, 0.80±0.08, and 0.61±0.05, and the protein expressions of TGF-β1 of cells in 1, 3 μmol/L SD-208 groups were significantly lower than those in group BC (with t values respectively 4.0 and 9.2, P values below 0.01). (5) The weights of nude mice in group NS and 1 μmol/L SD-208 group were similar on each time day (with t values from 0.2 to 1.1, P values above 0.05). The ratios of rest scar area of nude mice in two groups were decreased along with the injection time, and the ratios of rest scar area of nude mice in 1 μmol/L SD-208 group were significantly less than those in group NS from the day 6 to 20 post first time of injection (with t values from 1.8 to 15.9, P<0.05 or P<0.01). In week 1, 2, and 3 post first time of injection, the protein expressions of TGF-β1 of human hypertrophic scar tissue in nude mice in two groups showed a tendency of decrease, and the protein expressions of TGF-β1 of human hypertrophic scar tissue in nude mice in 1 μmol/L SD-208 group were significantly lower than those in group NS (with t values from 6.2 to 19.1, P values below 0.01). CONCLUSIONS SD-208 has significant inhibition effect on human hypertrophic scars, and the mechanism is correlated to the inhibition of protein expression of endogenous TGF-β1.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the value of radial and ulnar arteries hemodynamic changes by ultrasound in patients with primary palmar hyperhidrosis after thoracic sympathetic block. Methods: This was a prospective study, from January 2016 to September 2016, 23 patients with primary palmar hyperhidrosis were admitted to the First Hospital of Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, 92 arteries of these patients who underwent thoracic sympathetic block were enrolled into this study. Diameters, peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EDV) and resistive index (RI) of the radial and ulnar arteries were examined one day before and after the operation by color Doppler ultrasound. Spectral waveforms of these arteries were observed, and palms temperature (T), oxygen saturation (SpO(2)), perfusion index (PI) were also measured. Diameters, PSV, EDV, RI, T, SpO(2) and PI of the patients with PH were compared before and after the surgery. The effect of operation was also evaluated. Results: Before surgery, diameters and EDV of the radial and ulnar arteries of the patients with PH were(2.12±0.36) mm, (1.50±0.32) mm, (4.90±1.84) cm/s, (4.71±1.65) cm/s, respectively, after surgery, the diameter of the RA, UA and EDV were (2.45±0.54) mm, (1.87±0.44) mm, (9.37±1.69) cm/s and (9.12±1.54) cm/s, which were significantly increased.Before surgery, RI of the RA and UA of the patients were (0.85±0.05), (0.97±0.07) , respectively, after surgery, RI of the RA and UA were (0.57±0.04), (0.64±0.09), respectively, which were significantly decreased after surgery. The difference was statistically significant (t=-5.23, -2.33, -19.80, -14.68, 3.31, 3.48, all P<0.01). Before surgery, PSV of the RA and UA of the patients were (46.38±15.12) cm/s, (45.60±14.88) cm/s , respectively, after surgery, PSV of the RA and UA were (46.93±16.02) cm/s, (46.19±15.30) cm/s , respectively. The difference was not statistically significant (t=-0.23, -1.39, all P>0.05). Before surgery, T, SpO(2) and PI of the patients were(29.7±1.04) ℃, (93.24±2.23) %, (1.11±0.13) % , respectively, after surgery, T, SpO(2) and PI of the patients were (35.09±1.21) ℃, (98.10±1.34) %, (4.77±1.22)% , respectively. The difference was statistically significant (t=-20.174, -1.140, -23.601, all P<0.05). The symptoms of hyperhidrosis of the patients were disappeared immediately after the surgery in both hands. All of the patients were cured within 3 months and there was no severe complications. Conclusion: Thoracic sympathetic block increase Diameters and EDV but decrease RI of the radial and ulnar arteries of the patients with PH and increase the palms temperature. Artery diameters, EDV, and RI measured by ultrasound can be used as parameters to evaluate the effect of thoracic sympathetic block in patients with PH. It's objective, non-invasive and convenient.

Abstract
The monitoring of malignant transformation of hepatocytes or early diagnosis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC) remains a challenge in the medical world. Routine examinations including serum alpha-fetoprotein level and ultrasound examination have a limited value in the diagnosis of small hepatocellular carcinoma; however, the effective treatment of PHC depends on its early diagnosis. In recent years, molecular markers including important signaling molecules in PHC-related pathways, carcinoembryonic proteins, and non-coding RNA help with the monitoring of malignant transformation of hepatocytes or early diagnosis of liver cancer. This article reviews the valuable molecular markers in the monitoring of malignant transformation of hepatocytes or early diagnosis of liver cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the expression and clinicopathological significance of Ser10 phosphorylated p27(kip1)(P-p27Ser10) protein in human breast carcinoma tissue. Methods: Tissue specimens were obtained from 111 cases with breast carcinoma from January 2004 to December 2005. And the expression of P-p27Ser10 protein for each specimen was detected by immunohistochemical (EnVision) analysis. Six representative paired samples of cancerous and paired adjacent normal tissues were collected and detected by Western blot. The relationships between the expression levels of P-p27Ser10 protein and its clinicopathological characteristics in primary breast carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed.The association of P-p27Ser10 and Jab1 protein was detected by co-immunoprecipitation method. Results: A high-level expression of P-p27Ser10 was present in cancerous tissues but not in paired adjacent normal tissues. The positive expression rate of P-p27Ser10 protein was as high as 88.3% (98/111) and 7.2% (8/111) in cancerous and paired adjacent normal tissues respectively (P<0.05). P-p27Ser10 expression was correlated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (all P<0.05). P-p27Ser10 expression was significantly correlated with Ki-67 (r=0.582, P<0.05), and inversely correlated with p27 (r=-0.426, P<0.05). Co-immunoprecipitation revealed that the association of P-p27Ser10 and Jab1 protein was increased in breast carcinoma. Conclusion: Over-expression of P-p27Ser10 protein might play an important role in the pathogenesis of breast carcinoma. P-p27Ser10 protein therefore represents a novel diagnostic marker and therapeutic target in patients with breast carcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the dynamic expression of hepatic carnitine palmitoyltransferase-II (CPT-II) in the mitochondrial inner membrane during hepatocyte malignant transformation induced by lipid accumulation. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into control, fatty liver, and induced cancer groups, which were fed with normal, high-fat (HF), and HF containing 2-fluorenylacetamide (0.05%, 2-FAA) diets, respectively, for 14 weeks. One rat from each group was sacrificed every two weeks and the blood and liver samples were collected. Liver morphological changes were evaluated with hematoxylin and eosin staining, and the liver tissue samples were divided into control, fatty liver, degeneration, precancerous, and cancerous groups accordingly. Hepatic lipids were dyed by the oil red O method. The CPT-II expression was measured by immunohistochemistry and compared with the specific CPT-II concentration (ng/mg liver protein, ng/mg P) among different groups. Serum levels of circulating total cholesterol (Tch), triglyceride (TG), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were quantitatively analyzed. Results: Massive lipid accumulation hepatocytes was seen in rats on HF and HF containing 2-FAA diets. The lipid levels in the control group were significantly lower than those in the fatty liver (t = -11.556, P < 0.001), degeneration (t = -4.847, P = 0.04), precancerous (t = -13.652, P = 0.005), and cancerous groups (t = -10.896, P = 0.008). The serum TG and Tch levels in the degeneration, precancerous, and cancerous groups were 2-3 times higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). After 2-FAA treatment, the morphological changes of rat hepatocytes showed the progression from degeneration and precancerosis to cancerosis, with hepatocyte injury. The serum AST and ALT levels in the degeneration, precancerous, and cancerous groups were significantly higher (4-8 times) than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The specific concentration of liver CPT-II expression was significantly reduced during hepatocyte malignant transformation, as confirmed by immunohistochemistry, with the CPT-II levels significantly lower in the cancerous group than in any of other groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Low hepatic CPT-II expression might lead to abnormal lipid accumulation in hepatocytes, which should promote the malignant transformation of hepatocytes.

Abstract
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (PMIF) expressed by Plasmodium parasites has been proved to be similar to the mammalian MIF in both structure and biological activity and is a critical upstream regulator in antimalaria innate immunity. In this work, using a genetically modified (MIF-KO) strain of highly lethal rodent Plasmodium yoelii 17XL (Py17XL), we found that PyMIF could increase the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors by eliciting the CD11b(+) Ly6C(+) cells accumulated in the spleen of infected mouse. In addition, the chemotactic effect of PyMIF was demonstrated to associate with cell receptors CXCR2, CXCR4 and the cell surface markers ICAM-1, LFA-4.
