Context: To find sensitive and specific laboratory examination items for early diagnosing and monitoring liver transplantation reject reaction.', 'Randomly investigate 41 liver transplantation patients, among them there were 16 patients with reject reaction (including 12 with acute rejection, 4 with chronic rejection). Plasma soluble thrombomodulin (STM) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) levels were measured before operation and every other day after operation.', 'Plasma STM level increased significantly after operation, two days before rejection and after acute rejection (5.58 ng/ml +/- 0.42 ng/ml, 5.93 ng/ml +/- 0.45 ng/ml, and 7.88 ng/ml +/- 0.29 ng/ml, respectively), so did vWF level (101.2% +/- 4.68%, 104.3% +/- 5.78%, and 127.7% +/- 5.74%, respectively). STM level was much higher in acute rejection than that in chronic rejection (7.88 ng/ml +/- 0.29 ng/ml vs. 6.35 ng/ml +/- 0.54 ng/ml, t = 2.46, P < 0.05), in no reaction group after impacting therapy than in effective group (8.30 ng/ml +/- 0.19 ng/ml vs. 3.82 ng/ml +/- 0.22 ng/ml, t = 12.98, P < 0.01), and in dead group after treatment than in living group (7.98 ng/ml +/- 0.18 ng/ml vs. 6.51 ng/ml +/- 0.41 ng/ml, t = 3.39, P < 0.01).
Answer: Plasma STM and vWF can be taken as laboratory items for monitoring liver transplantation rejection. Plasma STM can act as not only an early prognosticating marker, but also suitable to distinguish acute from chronic reject reaction, and as a marker for monitoring impacting therapy effect and judging prognosis.
Do [ Values of soluble thrombomodulin and von Willebrand factor judging reject reaction in liver transplantation ]?

Context: Critical size defects (CSDs) of bone are defined as defects that do not heal spontaneously to new bone during the lifetime of an adult individual. In contrast, immature animals are capable to heal defects of identical size. It was our hypothesis that age-related paracrine effects are relevant for this difference in regeneration.', 'The pooled supernatant of primary rat calvarial osteoblast-like cell cultures (POBC) derived from prenatal or postnatal donors was concentrated and applied into CSDs of adult recipient organisms (n = 10). In addition, the supernatant of POBC derived from prenatal donors was pooled and purified by reverse-phase chromatography. Each pre-purified fraction was tested in a proliferation indicating bioassay. Peptide fractions containing proliferative activities were re-chromatographed and re-tested in a bioassay. Finally, a proliferative activity was purified, identified by sequence analysis and applied into CSDs of adult recipients.', 'The application of POBC derived from prenatal donors resulted in osseous regeneration of a CSD in adult recipients, while the supernatant of postnatal donors had much smaller effects. The morphologic features resembled the spontaneous osseous healing of calvarial defects of the same size in immature organisms. The polypeptide "tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases type II"(TIMP-2) was isolated from the supernatant of cultures of POBC derived from prenatal donors by measuring the induction of their proliferation. Additionally, the application of human TIMP-2 injected into calvarial CSDs of adult organisms resulted in osseous healing.
Answer: We conclude that one component responsible for the healing effect of CSDs of POBC supernatants derived from prenatal donors is TIMP-2.
Is tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases II ( TIMP-2 ) an osteoanabolic factor in vitro and in vivo?

Context: Serum KL-6 is a useful biomarker for the diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases (ILD). However, KL-6 has not been used to discriminate different types of ILD. Serum KL-6 concentrations can vary depending on antigen exposure levels in patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP); however, seasonal changes in serum KL-6 concentrations in ILD have not been determined. We hypothesized that seasonal variation of serum KL-6 is greater in HP than for the other ILD. The aim of this study was to determine seasonal variation of serum KL-6 concentrations in various ILD.', 'Serum KL-6 concentrations in the summer season from June 1 to September 30 and the winter season from November 1 to February 28 were retrospectively analyzed in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF, n=16), non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP, n=16), collagen vascular disease-associated interstitial pneumonia (CVD-IP, n=33), house-related HP (House-HP, n=9), bird-related HP (Bird-HP, n=9), and combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE, n=13).', 'Bird-HP and House-HP showed greater seasonal serum KL-6 variation than the other ILD. Serum KL-6 concentrations in Bird-HP were significantly increased in the winter and KL-6 concentrations in House-HP were significantly increased in the summer. Serum KL-6 variation was significantly greater in acute HP than chronic HP. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that greater seasonal variation in serum KL-6 concentrations is diagnostic for Bird-HP.
Answer: HP should be considered in ILD with greater seasonal changes in serum KL-6 concentrations.

Is seasonal variation of serum KL-6 concentrations greater in patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis?
