Objective To evaluate the influence of antiplatelet therapy prior to intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) on acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients receiving IVT with recombinant tissue type plasminogen activator (rt-PA).Methods Researches about the safety of pre-existing antiplatelet treatment on AIS patients undergoing rt-PA IVT published before 31st December 2013 were retrieved based on internet databases.A meta-analysis of included clinical trials was performed by RevMan 5.2 and Stata 12.0 software.Simultaneously,funnel plot and Egger's test were used to evaluate the publication bias.Results A total of 10 papers were included.Eight researches based meta-analysis showed that pre-existing antiplatelet therapy increased the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (SICH ; OR =1.67,95% CI 1.44-1.93,P < 0.01),6 researches based analysis suggested pre-existing antiplatelet therapy increased the risk of any intracranial hemorrhage (ICH ; OR =1.23,95% CI 1.04-1.47,P < 0.05) and 3 trials based analysis indicated the functional independence of patients receiving antiplatelet treatment was a bit worse than control group (OR =0.86,95% CI0.80-0.93,P <0.01).Funnel plots and Egger' s test showed that there was no significant publication bias (P > 0.05).Conclusions Antiplatelet therapy might increase the risk of post thrombolysis SICH and ICH,and their 3-month function independence is not so satisfied as those who had no antiplatelet agents before IVT.However,this review has limitations and the above results should be validated in future large prospective clinical studies.

BACKGROUND:Stem cels from the apical papila are a new kind of mesenchymal stem cels, and whether it can
be used in root regeneration is the key to the present study. OBJECTIVE:To culture rat stem cels from the apical papila and periodontal ligament stem celsin vitro, and to compare the biology behaviors of these two kinds of cels, thereby providing experimental basis for the application of stem cels from the apical papila in root regeneration. METHODS:The apical papila, as wel as the periodontal ligament tissues from the healthy mandibular teeth of young rats were digested and cultured. Immunophenotypes of stem cels from the apical papila and periodontal ligament stem cels were detected by immunofluorescence technique. Then, cel growth curves were determined by MTT method and mineralized nodule formation was observed by alizarin red staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Stem cels from the apical papila and periodontal ligament stem cels were both positive for STRO-1. Stem cels from the apical papila were positive for CD90 and weakly positive for CD146. Periodontal ligament stem cels were positive for CD146 and weakly positive for CD90. The absorbance values of stem cels from the apical papila and periodontal ligament stem cels increased with the increasing of time and became stable at 8 days. Since the 4th day, the proliferation capacity of stem cels from the apical papila was significantly stronger than that of periodontal ligament stem cels (P < 0.05). Both of stem cels are visible to have mineralized nodule formation. Compared with the periodontal ligament stem cels, stem cels from the apical papila were stained obviously deeper and had more mineralized nodules. These results show that stem cels from the apical papila have stronger proliferation capacity and mineralization ability than periodontal ligament stem cels.

AIM: To investigate the role of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling in tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?)-induced cardioprotection against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury. METHODS: Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes were pretreated with TNF-? or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) or L-arginine (L-Arg), respectively, for 12 h and then subjected to continuous hypoxia for 12 h, followed by reoxygenation for 6 h. The manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) activity of the cells was measured after H/R. Myocyte injury was determined by the release of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH). RESULTS: TNF-? (10~5 (U/L)) significantly increased the Mn-SOD activity and decreased release of LDH from ventricular myocytes. The cardioprotection against H/R injury was induced by the pretreatment with SNP (5 ?mol/L) or L-Arg (5 mmol/L), which was blocked by ODQ (10 ?mol/L), the specific sGC inhibitor, and Chel (5 ?mol/L), the specific PKC inhibitor. Pretreatment with L-NAME (100 ?mol/L), ODQ, Chel, antoxidant 2-MPG (400 ?mol/L) or tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein (50 ?mol/L) attenuated the increased Mn-SOD activity and reduced LDH level induced by TNF-?. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that NO may play a role in TNF-?-induced cardioprotection, which is mediated by sGC and PKC. [

BACKGROUND:The periodontal ligament stem cels can promote periodontal tissue regeneration, providing a new way for the treatment of periodontitis. OBJECTIVE:To observe the inflammatory microenvironment effects on the biological properties of periodontal ligament stem cels. METHODS: Periodontal ligament stem cels from healthy controls and patients with periodontitis were primarily cultured by tissue digestion method, purified using limited dilution method, and identified through detection of CD146 and STRO-1. Then, passage 3 cels were taken and denoted as normal control and inflammation groups folowed by osteogenic induction. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Purified cels from two sources both expressed STRO-1 and CD146. Periodontal ligament stem cels in the inflammation group showed higher multiplication capacity, but the osteogenesis ability was lower compared with the normal control group. The expressions of Runx2 mRNA and Osterix mRNA were dropped significantly after the stimulus of tumor necrosis factor-α (P < 0.05), but the interleukin-1β and interleukin-6 did not have a significant impact. Tumor necrosis factor-α at 0.1 and 1 μg/L had no significant effects on the expression of Runx2 mRNA, but the expression of Runx2 mRNA was decreased significantly after treatment with 10 μg/L tumor necrosis factor-α (P< 0.05). It is confirmed that the molecular signaling mechanism inside the periodontal ligament stem cels is changed under inflammatory microenvironment, so that the differentiation capacity of cels from the inflammatory sources is lowered. Moreover, tumor necrosis factor-α is one of the key factors and its optimalconcentration is 10 μg/L.
