Lysyl

oxidase initiates the cross-linking of collagen and elastin by catalyzing the formation of the lysynederived aldehyde. The activxty of lysyl oxidase in fibrotic conditions or inherited connective tissue diseases haS been reported. However, little is known about the localization of It in human Sk=". We investigated the localization of 1ySyl oxidase in normal human skin and cultured human keratlnocyte usxng indirect immunofluorescence method with monoclonal antI-human lysyl oxidase antibody. Fine fllamentous or granular posrtive immunoreactions were noted on or amonq collagen or elastic fibers. Intracellular d1strlbut1on of basal cells, endothelial cells and sweat elands also observed as well as that of fibroblasts. The cultured human keratinocytes exhibited a immunoreactlon with a filasentous cytoskeletal protein-like structure. TO rule out another possibility that certain proteins share haptens, total human keratinocytes RNAs were subjected to Northern analysrs. we detected the expression of lysyl oxidaae gene in human keratinocyto. The results suggest that lysyl oxldase would have other functions besides initiation of cross-linking in collagen and elastin.

ADHESION OF EPIDERMAL LANGERHANS CELLS TO VARIOUS EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX PROTEINS MIGHT INFLUENCE THEIR MIGRATION BEHAVIOR. Mane-Jeanne Stasuet. Yasunobu Kobavashi. Cola& m S hmut. Dermatology Research Umt. INSERM U346. CNRS SD1 6199, E. Hemot Hzpipital, Lyon, France It IS clear that ep~dermal Lagerhans cells (LC) are capable of mo”ement and of leavmg the eptdemus. Cell motihty depends on the abdity of cells to idably, attach and change shape to response to spectftc extracellular matrix (ECM) components. On the way b regtonal lymph nodes, while passmg through the baement membrane(BM), LC get m contact wth lammm (LM) and type IV collagen (Coil) at flrsl and then wth fibrooectin (FN) and ,ype I collagen I” connectwe tissue of dermw. The present study was undertaken to learn more about the adhesive interacttons between human LC and these ECM protems. For this purpose, using htghly ennched LC suspens~oos (70-908 LC), double adhesion assays were developed for the evaluation of the abibty of LC to successwely bmd to two dlfferent substrates. If bmdmg assays were first performed on Uv-ccared plates. the recovered attached LC were then plated on FW. type IV- and type I Coll~coated duhes.

THE EFFECT OF PLATELET-DERIVE,? GRO%IH FACTOR UPON CELLULAR INFILTRATION AND YASCULARISATION OF A CUTANEOUS COLLAGENOUS IMPLANT IN THE RAT. Peter M. Royce, Ken-ichl Ohsaki, Toshiyasu Kate and Keizaburo" Miki. Institute of Biomedical Science. Terumo R. B D. Centre, Nakai, Kanagawa, Japan. The "se of collagenous implants offers one potential treatment of full thickness skin lesions, although results may not be ideal. We have investigated the effect of the recombinant BB homodlmer of human platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) upon wound healing following the implantation into full thickness excision wounds in the dorsal skin of rats, of a trial bovine atelocollagen sponge (collagen l:III, ca. 9:l) consisting of both fibrous and denatured collagen (9:l). stabilised by dehydrothermal crosslinking, and with an outer silicone layer. Before implantation, sponges were soaked in saline aione, or I" saline containing PDGF, in dmD"nt such that the entIre volume of liquid was absorbed Histological examination of excised sponges at 14 and 21 days postimplantation, in dose-response studies utilislng between 0-4119 PDGF per w"nd. showed an enhanced infiltration of host cells, mostly fibroblasts, and enhanced capillary formatlon. under the rnfluence of PDGF. the greatest response being observed with 4~9 of this cytokine. The proportion of inflammatory cells invading the sponge was markedly less with PDGF. althouoh d mild eosinoohilia was anparent. Desplt6 the e&anced vascularihatlon, brombheoxyurxd?ne sta?nlng demonstrated that the process still did not occur sufficiently rapidly to allow the survival of epithelial cells in split-thickness skin grafts superimposed upon sponges lacking do outer sillcone layer at the time of their implantation.

Recent study sugqested there are two the human type "II collagen intraqenlc polymorphisms I" gene. In this study, we determined the alleleic frequencies of P"uII and Alul polymorphism in the Japanese population and attempted to establzsh the genetic lrnkaqe between DDEB and type "II collagen gene. Genom~c DNA was isolated from 40 unrelated healthy lndlvlduals and PCR was performed. The P""lI and Al"1 alleli. frequencres are 0.45 and 0.36, respectively. Next,we examined these two polymorphxsms I" a Japanese fam11y with DDEB. In this family, the affected lndlvlduals had blisters and erosions with onset shortly after birth. Electron m1croscoprc abservatlon showed the Separation ,uSt beneath the basal lamlna and the reduced number of S"ChOrilIq flbrils. PVUII and Al"1 RFLP were analyzed 1n 9 affected and 13 unaffected ,ndl"lduals. TWO -poxnt llnkaqe analysis revealed co-Segreqatlon Of P""lI and AluE poiymorphrsms in thus pedigree CZ=2.15 These data suggest that the type "II collage" 1s the candidate qene for this Japanese famrly vlth DDEB.
