Objective To investigate the effect of proliferation,apoptosis and cell cycle of 3-MA on rat endothelial progenitor cells. Methods Bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells were isolated from rat bone marrow by ficoll. There were five groups. The control group and four 3-MA concentration groups: 1. 25 mmol/L,2. 5 mmol/L,5 mmol/L, 10 mmol/L. MTT was used to measure the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cells. Flow cytometry ( FCM) was used to detect cell apoptosis and cell cycle. Results (1)5 mmol/L 3-MA promotes proliferation of endothelial progenitor cells, while 10 mmol/L 3-MA inhibits the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cells (P ＜ 0. 05). (2) 10 mmol/L 3-MA promotes apoptosis of endothelial progenitor cells, compared with the control, the difference was significant ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). (3) 3-MA at the concentration of 5 mmol/L reduces cells at G0/G1 phase and increases S and G2/M phase cells; 10 mmol/L 3-MA induces endothelial progenitor cells blockade at S phase, G2/M phase cells decreased, compared with the control, the difference was significant (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusions 5 mmol/L 3-MA promotes the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cells. 10 mmol/L 3-MA inhibits the proliferation and promotes apoptosis of endothelial progenitor cells.

Objective To investigate the effect of bone marrow derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPC)transplantation on microenvironments in a murine model of chronic vein thrombosis.EPCs transplantation was evaluated whether it can up-regulate thrombus organization and recanalization associated cytokines(VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1). Method EPCs from immature Wister rats' bone marrow were isolated using a Ficoll density gradient centrifugation,and cultured in fibronectin-coated plate in EGM-2M Vmedium.EPCs were harvested on the 10th day,then were transplanted into chronic inferior vens cava thrombus of adult Wister rat through the femoral vein.Rats were divided into three groups:blank control group(group A,sham operation),the control group(group B,the medium injected)and the experimental group(group C,EPCs injected).The rats were sacrificed after 28 days.VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1 mRNA was measured by real-time quantitative PCR and protein expression change by Western blotting from IVC and thrombus tissue. Results EPCs were identificated successfullv by immunohistochemistry,immunofluorescence and function,then were transplanted into chronic inferior vena cava thrombus of adult rats.After EPCs transplantation,the VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1 mRNA expression in group C expression was significantly up-regulated with statistical significance(P＜0.01)compared with group A and group B in IVC and thrombus tissue by real-time PCR.There was no significant difference between group A and group B (P＞0.05).VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1 protein expression were similar to mRNA expression.There was significant increase in group C compared to group A and group B(P＜0.01)and no statistical significance between group A and group B(P＞0.05).Conclusion EPCs deriving from bone marrow may change the microenvimnment of chronic vein thrombus through up-regulating thrombus organization and recanalization associated cytokines(VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1).

Objective To study the effect of endothelial progenitor cells(EPCs) transplantation on chronic deep venous thrombosis.Methods Bone marrow-derived mouonuclear cells (BMMNCs) were isolated from rat bone marrow by ficoll and cultured with EGM-2MV medium.A rat model of chronic deep vein thrombosis was established by partial ligation of the inferior vena cava and intravenous injection of thrombosin.Model rats were randomly divided into three groups:A(n =25),EPCs group,1 ml 10~6 EPCs transplantation;B(n = 25),EGM-2MV medium group,1 ml EGM-2MV medium transplantation;C (n =25),control group,without any treatment.After transplantation,HE staining and immunohistochemical staining was conducted to detect recanalization of the inferior vena cava.Western blotting of inferior vena cava thrombosis was used to detect VEGF,bFGF protein expression changes.SPSS13.0 software was used for analysis.Results Compared with group B and C,VEGF,bFGF protein significantly increased in group A.The recanalization capillary density was significantly higher in group A than that in group B,and C (P ＜0.05).The neovascularization was identified by immunohistochemical staining using vWF antibody,as endothelial cells.Conclusions EPCs were the precursor of endothelial cells,when transplanted into the deep vein thrombos,initiating angiogenesis and accelerating organization and recanalization of vein thrombus.

Objective To evaluate ascending venography in the diagnosis of iliac vein compression syndrome.Methods From April 2011 to April 2013,we have had 556 patients with varicose veins suspected of Cockett syndrome.The degree of varicose veins by the International Union of Venous Clinical Classification (CEAP classification) was as following[1]:shallow varicose veins of lower limb (C2) in 190;varicose veins with limb swelling (C3) in 149 cases ; with body skin changes,such as pigmentation,eczema or lipid hard skin disease (C4) in 130; with healed ulcers (C5) in 17; with active ulcer(C6) in 70.Deep vein anterograde contrast and femoral venous cannula angiography were performed on 760 times.Results Iliac vein compression syndrome (Cockett) was detected by ascending venography in 154 patients,the diagnosis was established by following femoral venous cannula angiography.In the other 48 patients in whom Cockett syndrome was suspected by ascending venography,final diagnosis was reached by femoral venous cannula angiography.Altogether there were 202 iliac vein compression syndrome cases,with a positive rate 38.19％ (202/529).The narrowness was larger than 50％ in 173 cases.In 145 cases there were visible collateral vessels.Conclusions Deep vein ascending angiography is a useful screening method in the diagnosis and treatment of Cockett syndrome.

Objective To discuss the surgical and interventional treatment of vascular injuries. Methods Clinical data of 85 patients with vascular injuries were retrospectively studied by grouping. Location of injury included jugular vein, vertebral artery, main extremity vessels and superior mesenteric artery. There were 25 patients with traffic injury and 60 with stah injury, of whom 62 patients underwent surgical operation (vascular grafting were performed in 37 and vascular repair in 25) and 23 received in-tervention therapy. Results There were one death and one amputation. Fifty-eight patients were fol-lowed up, which showed that all patients had good vascular patency. Conclusions Prompt and correct diagnosis is very important for treatment of vascular injury. Interventional treatment had merits of minor trauma, short operation duration, simple manipulation and quick postoperative recovery. Surgical opera-tion and endovascular intervention can be used together in treating vascular injury.

Objective To discuss the methods and the efficacy of interventional treatment of vascular injuries. Methods From January 2006 to March 2008, interventional therapy was performed in 13 cases of vascular injuries including injuries of internal jugular vein, subclavical artery, axillary artery,inferior vena cave, abdominal aorta, superior mesenteric artery, arteria iliaca, vena iliaca and femoral artery.Types of these injuries included arteriovenous fistula in 3, vascular rupture complicating haematoma in 4,pseudoaneurysm in 3 and arterial stenosis ensuing from injury repair in 3. Covered stent-grafts were used in 9 cases (10 stent-graft), mesh stem in 1, sealed with balloon in 2 and introcoil embolism in 1.Result Interventional procedure was successful in all these 13 cases, there was no mortality nor severe complications. Small amount of endoleak developed in thoracic aorta pseudoaneurysm and contrast leaked from internal jugular vein in left subclavical arteriovenous fistula after stent-graft insertion, these were healedconservatively. Twelve cases were followed up from 1 to 26 months. Hemoptysis occurred in patient with thoracic aorta pseudoaneurysm 12 months after intervention but without abnormality in CTA. There were no stem break, shift, deformation or stennsis and there were no recurrence of primary disease.Conclusion Interventional therapy is of less invasion, short performation duration, simple manipulation and quick postoperative recovery for vascular injuries.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of AngioJet mechanical thrombus aspiration system for patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE).Methods Clinical data of 28 cases of acute pulmonary embolism (PE) patients was retrospectively analyzed,8 cases (AngioJet group) were treated with AngioJet + CDT,20 cases were treated by pigtail catheter thrombolysis(CDT group)alone,the total amount of urokinase,thrombolytic time,related detection index and the occurrence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results The dosage of urokinase in the two groups was (72.5 ± 44.4) × 104U and (169.0 ± 59.3) × 104 U respectively,P ＜ 0.05.The catheter indwelling time was (1.0 ± 0.89) days and (2.65 ± 0.86) days respectively (P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in SBP,PaO2,SpO2 and D-dimer between the two groups before and after operation (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Both AngioJet and CDT are effective methods for the treatment of acute PE.The combination of the two methods can accelerate the improvement of clinical symptoms,reducing the dosage of thrombolytic drugs and the occurrence of surgery-related complications.

Objective:To compare the mid-term clinical effects of AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy assisted catheter-directed thrombolysis (ART+CDT) with catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in the treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis of lower extremities.Methods:Ninety-one patients admitted to the Department from Jan 2016 to Dec 2017 were placed with inferior vena cava filters and divided into ART+CDT group (30 cases)and CDT group (61 cases). Total urokinase dosge, thrombolytic time, operative cost, length of hospital stay, detumescence rate, thrombus clearance rate, cumulative patency rate of lower limb veins, Villalta score at 2 years and 5 years, thrombosis recurrence rate and chronic venous insufficiency quality of life questionnaire were compared between the two groups.Results:The success rate of surgery was 100% in both groups, there was no mortality. There were significant differences in the short-term postoperative outcomes between the two groups in terms of total dosage of urokinase, thrombolysis time, total cost of surgery, length of hospital stay, detumescence rate, venous patency scores before and after treatment, and venous patency rate (all P<0.05). For the mid- and long-term postoperative outcomes of 2 and 5 years, there were no significant differences in the incidence of PTS, recurrence rate of thrombus, chronic venous function scale, and cumulative patency rate at 2 years (all P>0.05). Conclusions:ART+CDT has a significant advantage over CDT alone in terms of early efficacy and early reopening of blood flow in patients. Both ART+CDT and CDT have a low incidence of PTS and a low recurrence rate of thrombus in the mid-term follow-up, and both have satisfactory performance in the mid- and long-term efficacy of interventional treatment of deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs.
