简介:寻常狼疮是皮肤结核中最常见的类型,约占所有皮肤结核患者的半数。本病易侵犯儿童和青少年,好发于面部,影响容貌。我们用异烟肼、乙胺丁醇和利福平联合治愈寻常狼疮2例,报告如下。
简介:目的探讨复方红花酊对TNF-α和IL-10的影响及促进黑色素形成作用。方法实验动物随机分为正常对照组、模型组、阳性对照组(复方卡力孜然酊)、复方红花酊高剂量组、中剂量组、低剂量组。建立白癜风皮损模型,并应用相对应药物涂擦治疗,测量其TNF-α和IL.10平均光密度及黑色素颗粒细胞数目,比较其作用。结果复方红花酊高、中剂量组及阳性对照组对皮损有复色作用;与正常对照组比较,模型组TNF-α的表达显著增高,IL-10的表达明显减少,黑色素含量明显降低,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05);与模型组比较,复方红花酊高、中剂量组及阳性对照组中TNF-α的表达明显降低,IL-10的表达明显增高,各组黑色素含量均明显增加,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05);复方红花酊高、中剂量组及阳性对照组中的TNF-α表达水平与黑色素含量呈显著负相关(P〈0.05),IL-10表达水平与黑色素含量呈显著正相关(P〈0.05)。结论复方红花酊通过调节TN-α和IL-10的表达水平可影响黑色素的生成,进而对白癜风产生一定的治疗作用。

简介:水通道蛋白(AQP)是一类能快速转运水的膜整合蛋白,目前发现其在哺乳动物中有13个亚型,不同AQP亚型的分布具有组织、细胞、亚细胞特异性。皮肤上分布的水通道蛋白主要是AQP3。AQP3介导的水、甘油运输对于皮肤功能具有十分重要的意义。它的功能缺陷可导致皮肤干燥、弹性下降和屏障作用减弱等皮肤损伤。
