Effect of collagenase ointment versus moist exposed burn ointment on healing of full-thickness burns in mice by removing of necrotic tissue.
The presence of necrotic tissue is one of the major problems that affect healing of burn wounds. The present study was designed to find the effectiveness of collagenase versus moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) on removal of necrotic tissue of burns. Twenty mice randomly assigned and divided into four groups. For Group 1, burn wounds were treated with collagenase ointment only, Group 2 burn wounds were treated with MEBO, Group 3 burn wounds were treated with white vaseline alone, and Group 4 burn wounds were considered as control and left without treatment. In each group, the time of treatment was considered. The results indicated that the removal time of necrotic tissue and healing process was better in the case of using collagenase than using MEBO for treatment of burns.

Liver transplantation modifies serum cholestanol, cholesterol precursor and plant sterol levels.
Proportions of cholesterol precursors (squalene, delta 8-cholestenol, desmosterol and lathosterol), plant sterols (campesterol and sitosterol) and cholestanol to cholesterol in serum were measured before and serially after liver transplantation in eight patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and three with acute liver necrosis. The preoperative proportions of cholestanol were 12 and 3-times higher in the PBC and necrosis groups, respectively, than in a control group of 27 individuals, while those of lathosterol were low in both groups and the campesterol/sitosterol ratio in the PBC group. During the operation the proportions of cholestanol fell sharply and those of lathosterol rose especially in the PBC group. During the postoperative follow-up of 5 weeks the proportions of the non-cholesterol sterols were markedly improved especially in the necrosis group yet those of cholestanol remained high and the campesterol/sitosterol ratios low, particularly in the PBC group. The proportions of lathosterol increased gradually almost to the control limits within the postoperative 5-week period, whereas those of desmosterol decreased. The non-cholesterol sterol values were not related to acute rejections, while significant correlations of cholestanol to liver function tests was found especially at the end of the follow-up.
