Objective To evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and clinical significance of CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA and LUNX mRNA for detecting micrometastasis by sampling the peripheral blood and regional lymph nodes of lung cancer patients. Methods Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect LUNX mRNA,CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA for micrometastasis by sampling the peripheral blood of 48 lung cancer patients and 44 regional lymph nodes of such patients treated by curative resection. Peripheral blood of 30 patients with pulmonary benign lesions and 10 normal healthy volunteers and lymph nodes of 6 patients with benign pulmonary diseases served as control. Results (1) LUNX mRNA, CK19 mRNA, CEA mRNA were expressed in all(35/35) lung cancer tissues. (2) In the peripheral blood from 48 lung cancer patients, 30(62.5%) were positive for LUNX mRNA, 24 (50.0% ) positive for CK19 mRNA and 32(66.7%) positive for CEA mRNA. The positive detection rates of micrometastasis in 44 lymph nodes from lung cancer patients were 36.4% (16 out of 44) for LUNX mRNA, 27.3%(12 out of 44) for CK19 mRNA and 40.9%(18 out of 44) for CEA mRNA. (3) In the 30 blood samples from patients with pulmonary benign diseases, 2 (6.7%) expressed CK19 mRNA, but none expressed LUNX mRNA or CEA mRNA. All the 3 molecular markers were negative in the 10 blood samples from healthy volunteers. In 11 lymph nodes from patients with pulmonary benign lesions, none was positive for any of the three markers.(4)In 44 regional lymph nodes from lung cancer patients,6(13.6%) were positive for metastasis by histopathological examination, with a positive rate significantly lower than that of the RT-PCR ( P

Objective: To develop injectable tissue-engineered bone. Methods: Bone marrow cells isolated from lilac bone of New Zealand rabbits were cultured and induced to differentiate Into osteoblasts. The osteoblasts were mixed with 20 g/L alginate sodium solution to generate osteoblasts/alginate composite with final cellular density of 5 ? 10 6/ml. Calcium chloride was used as cross-linking agent. The osteoblasts/alginate composite was injected into the dorsal subcutaneous tissue of nude mice. The injected material with surounding tissue were examined with X-ray and histopathologic technique. Results: Four and eight weeks after injection, the hard knobbles were easily palpated under the dorsal skin of the animals. On X-ray photograph the knobbles showed calcified tissue image. In histological analysis, new bone formation was observed in the osteoblasts/alginate composite. The osteogenesis was in association with regenerated hematopoietic bone marrow. Conclusion: New bone tissue can be created through the injection of alginate sodium mixed with marrow stromal osteoblasts.

Objective: To investigate the method of using tubular demineralized tubular bone matrix scaffold composited with marrow stromal osteoblasts to fabricate tissue-engineered bone in vivo. Methods: Marrow stromal cells were harvested from illiac bone of 5 New Zealand rabbits respectively. After being cultured and multiplied in vitro, marrow stromal cells were induced to differentiate to osteoblasts with dexamethasone. The induced cells were harvested and mixed with 1.5% alginate sodium solution to generate a cell suspension. The suspension was dropped into tubular demineralized bone (1~1.5 cm in length, 0.2~0.5 cm in diameter) and then gelled with 2.5% CaCl 2. The demineralized tubular bone matrix/osteoblasts composites were placed in the dorsum of the rabbit subcutaneously as autogenous cells transplantation. Samples were investigated 6 and 12 weeks after implantation with histological and roentgenographic examination. Results: Osteoid tissue and new bone were observed in 4 weeks. In 8 weeks, more new bone formation, cells lied in the lacunae and arranged in order were found.Conclusion: Demineralized tubular bone matrix can be used as scaffold for the marrow stromal osteoblasts and alginate which was employed as three dimension carrier for cell growing and producing extral cell matrix.

Objective To discuss the therapeutic strategy and the clinical efficacy of percutaneous cholecystostomy in treating high-risk patients with acute cholecystitis. Methods During the period of Jan. 2006-June 2008,percutaneous cholecystostomy was performed in 27 high-risk patients with acute cholecystitis,consisting of lithic cholecystitis (n = 21) and non-lithic cholecystitis (n = 6). Of 27 patients,percutaneous cholecystostomy via transhepatic approach was performed in 22 and via transperitoneal approach in 5. The 7 F drainage catheter was used. Cholecystography was conducted before the drainage catheter was extracted. Results Percutaneous cholecystostomy was successfully accomplished in all 27 cases,with a technical success rate of 100%. Postoperative patency of gallbladder drainage was obtained in 25 patients,with the relieving or subsiding of abdominal pain and the restoring of temperature and leukocyte account to normal range within 72 hours. In one patient,as the abdominal pain relief was not obvious 72 hours after the procedure,cholecystography was employed and it revealed the obstruction of the drainage catheter. After reopening of the drainage catheter,the abdominal pain was relieved. In another case,cholecystography was carried out because the abdominal pain became worse after the procedure,and minor bile leak was demonstrated. After powerful anti-infective and symptomatic medication,the abdominal pain was alleviated. The drainage catheter was extracted in 25 patients 6-7 weeks after the treatment. Of these 25 patients,12 accepted selective cholecystectomy,7 received percutaneous cholecystolithotomy and 6 with non-lithic cholecystitis did not get any additional surgery. The remaining two patients were living with long-term retention of the indwelling drainage-catheter. Conclusion Percutaneous cholecystostomy is a simple,safe and effective treatment for acute cholecystitis in high-risk patients. This technique is of great value in clinical practice.
