title: [Expression of EIIIA-fibronectin in injured rat skin used in estimation of wound interval].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To observe the means of fibronectin(FN) alternative splicing and the expression of EIIIA-FN variant in rat skin after bruise, for the sake of providing some help for forensic estimation of wound interval.
  
  
  METHODS
  Total RNA was isolated from wounded skin, and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was conducted to amplify target segments.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Detectable EIIIA+(526 bp) segments, lacked in normal organize, was amplified at 1 h after experimental wound, and the levels were increased within 24 h.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The alternative splicing EIIIA-fibronectin variant would be a satisfied criterion for research of skin injury.
