Objective Investigate the influence of Qingbi decoction(QB-D)and S1PR5 signal on the biological functions of sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P)-induced human immortalized keratinocytes(HaCaT)in vitro experiments,and discuss the possible treatment mechanism of QB-D for psoriasis on ke-ratinocytes.Methods Lipopolysaccharides(LPS)(1 μg/mL,24 hours)was used to stimulate HaCaT,S1P content in the supernatant was detected by ELISA,and S1PRs receptor mRNA transcription level was detected by q-PCR to screen the hyper-specific S1P/S1PR5 pathway.CCK-8 was used to detect activity of cell,q-PCR was used to detect mRNA expression of IL-17 and IL-23,in order to select appropriate S1P treatment concentration and time for modeling,the inhibition of QB-D on S1PR5 protein expression was detected by Western blot(WB),S1PR5 protein expression was detected by WB,and efficient siRNA was screened to construct S1PR5 gene defect model.Cells was divided into negative control group(PBS+NC siRNA),S1P inflammation model group(S1P+PBS+NC siRNA),QB-D processing group(S1P+QB-D+ NC siRNA),S1PR5 gene defect group(S1P+PBS+S1PR5 SiRNA)and QB-D processing S1PR5 genetic defect group(S1P+QB-D+S1PR5 siRNA group).The cell mobility was detected by scratch experiments,interleukin(IL)-36γ secretion in the supernatant was detected by EILSA,and the expressions of nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB)pathway related proteins,such as IκBα,IKK,p-IKK,p65,p-p65 in the cell were detected by WB.Results Compared with normal cells,the content of supernatant S1P in HaCaT psoriatic inflammatory model cells stimulated by LPS was significantly increased(P<0.01),and the mRNA expression of S1PR5 was the most significantly increased(P<0.01).S1P at 0.5 μmol/L for 48 hours was selected as an inflammatory modeling scheme,QB-D lyophilized powder solution could significantly inhibit the high expression of S1PR5 protein caused by S1P(P<0.01).Compared with the Negative control group,the S1P inflammation model group enhanced the migration ability of HaCaT,up-regulated the concentration of IL-36γ in supernatant,and improved the expression of S1PR5,p-IKK and p-p65 in the cell(P<0.01),while no significant changes were found in the expressions of IκBα,IKK and p65.Compared with the S1P inflammation model group,the migration ability of HaCaT cells in the QB-D processing group,the S1PR5 gene defect group and the QB-D processing S1PR5 genetic defect group significantly were reduced,IL-36γ secretion and expression of p-IKK,p-p65 in the cell were significantly decreased(P<0.01),while IκBα,IKK,p65 had no significant changes.However,the changes of IL-36γ,p-ikK and p-p65 in the QB-D processing S1PR5 genetic defect group were more significant than those in the other two groups(P<0.01).Conclusion Qingbi decoction can inhibit HaCaT cell migration and IL-36γ secretion,and truncate NF-κB pathway signaling by partially blocking the combination of S1P with S1PR5,in order to interfer with inflammatory response.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of external application of Chinese herbal medicine (ex-CHM) for psoriasis vulgaris (PV). METHODS Different search portals, including the China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, China Science and Technology Journal Database, Wanfang, SinoMed, clinicaltrials, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the ex-CHM intervention with other treatment protocols for PV, with available data as of November 25, 2020. The Review Manager 5.3 software was used for analysis. RESULTS Nineteen RCTs involving 1988 participants were included, of which twelve RCTs qualified for the Meta-analysis. The results showed that the addition of CHM bath to narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) had a higher response rate [RR = 1.29; 95% CI (1.19, 1.40); P < 0.000 01]; lower psoriasis area severity index (PASI) [MD = -3.15; 95% CI (-4.79, -1.52); P = 0.000 2)], adverse reactions rate [RR = 0.32; 95% CI (0.15, 0.66); P = 0.002], and recurrence rate [RR = 0.48; 95% CI (0.30, 0.79); P=0.004] than NB-UVB alone. The addition of CHM fumigation to NB-UVB also showed a higher response rate [RR = 1.29; 95% CI (1.11, 1.49); P = 0.000 7] and lower adverse reactions rate [RR = 0.44; 95% CI (0.24, 0.79); P=0.006]. In addition, CHM bath could reduce the adverse reactions induced by 308 nm excimer laser and improve patients' quality of life better than phototherapy. CHM fumigation could improve the efficacy of calcipotriol ointment and reduce the adverse reactions. CHM fumigation combined with external washing plus acitretin showed better results than using acitretin alone. No statistical difference was observed between CHM external washing and calcipotriol ointment or CHM ointment and retinoic acids. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence showed that CHM bath and fumigation appeared to be efficient and safe for PV treatment. However, no definite conclusion could be drawn due to the low quality of included studies and thus more well-designed studies are needed for further assessment.
Background Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa pruriginosa (DEB-Pr) is a rare subtype of DEB, characterized by recurrent pruritus of the extremities, pruritus papules, nodules, and mossy-like plaques. To date, fewer than 100 cases have been reported. We report a misdiagnosed 30-year-old man with sporadic late-onset DEB-Pr who responded well to tacrolimus treatment, thereby serving as a guide to correct diagnosis and treatment. Case summary A 30-year-old man presented with recurrent itching plaques of 1-year duration in the left tibia that aggravated and involved both legs and the back. Examination revealed multiple symmetrical, purple, and hyperpigmented papules and nodules with surface exfoliation involving the tibia and dorsum of the neck with negative Nissl's sign, no abnormalities in the skin, mucosa, hair, or fingernail, and no local lymph node enlargement. Blisters were never reported prior to presentation. Serum immunoglobulin E level was 636 IU/mL. Clinical manifestations suggested DEB-Pr. Histological examination showed subepidermal fissure, scar tissue, and milia. Direct immunofluorescence showed no obvious abnormalities. However, we were unable to perform electron microscopy or genetic research following his choice. We treated him with topical tacrolimus. After 2 wk, the itching alleviated, and the skin lesions began to subside. No adverse reactions were observed during treatment. Conclusion Topical tacrolimus is a safe treatment option for patients with DEB-Pr and can achieve continuous relief of severe itching.

Chinese medicine is different from Western medicine in terms of understanding human physiology and pathology and diagnosing and treating disease. Different theoretical systems and thinking modes of the two often cause various puzzles among undergraduate beginners. In clinical teaching, teachers should not only solve students ’ puzzles in theory, but also combine with clinical research case to guide them to understand the relationship between Chinese medicine and Western medicine. They both take human body as object of study. There is no“one or the other”relation of them. The teachers should encourage their students to make the best of the two medical systems so as to lay a solid foundation for in-depth study.
Previously there were not enough attention to teaching jobs about experimental diagnosis in TCM colleges, and the teaching effect was not ideal. The article intended to explore the teaching experience of laboratory diagnostics in TCM colleges. From 7 aspects which are the importance of medical ethics education of humanities, differences of Chinese and western thinking mode, logical thinking training method, teaching methods improvement, how to skill training, quality control and scientific research ability training, the author communicates the teaching experiences. The author thinks that we should strengthen the medical ethics education of humanities, the analysis of Chinese and western thinking mode and strengthen the logical thinking training, using a variety of teaching methods, attaches great importance to the skills of operating concept, strengthening the quality control and improving scientific research ability. Attaching importance to the principle and method in the college experimental teaching in traditional Chinese medicine diagnostics, and it is important for students to mastering basic medical skills and promoting modern science literacy.
