Objective To analyze the Ag NORs in T cells of different patients to find clues for the diagnosis and monitoring of cancer.Methods A KL 2 imaging system was used to analyze the areas of Ag NORs in T cells. T cells from peripheral blood were cultivated and stimulated, and silver staining was performed. The areas of Ag NORs were analyzed.Results A total of 1 046 nomal adults, 393 patients with non malignant diseases and 706 patients with malignant diseases were analyzed. Their average IS% values were (7.81?0.69)%, (7.85?0 72)% and 5.17?0.87 respectively. The IS% values above 6% were 99.8%, 94.7% and 10% to 35% respectively. No differences were observed in different kinds of cancers except breast cancer and rectum cancer whose IS% were (5.61?0.86)% and (6.10?0.92)% respectively, 75% and 26% of their IS% were less than 6% respectively. 83% to 90% of the IS% in the patients with other cancers were below 6%. In comparison with serum CEA, AFP and the like, Ag NORs in T cells were more powerful in diagnosis and monitoring of cancers.Conclusion The value of Ag NORs of T cells was significantly lower in patients with cancers and was statistically different from that in nomal adults and patients without malignant diseases. The results demonstrated that the analysis of Ag NORs might play an important role in the diagnosis, differenciation and monitoring of cancer.

Objective To study the dynamic changes and clinical significance of vascular endothelial grouth factor(VEGF) and Interleukin 1?(IL 1?) in patients with ischemic cerebral vascular disease.Methods Serum VEGF and IL 1? levels were determined by ELISA and balanced radioimmunoassay respectively in 16 patients with TIA and 38 patients with cerebral infarction during different phase (in 24 h,at 3 d,7d and 14 d after the onset of disease),and 30 healthy controls were included.Results It was found that the levels of VEGF in patients with infarction were much higher than those with TIA( P 0.05 ).Conclusion VEGF and IL 1? may take part in the pathological process of ischemic brain damage VEGF may serve as a sensitive monitor to estimate the cerebral ischemic degree and clinical prognosis.

Objective To explore the possible mechanism and protective effect of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) on rats with paraquat-induced acute lung injury. Method The solution of 20% paraquat (PQ) in dose of 18 mg/kg was injected intra-peritoneally into rats to induce poisoning,and phosphate buffered solution (PBS) was given to rats instead of PQ in rats of control group. Eighty specific pathogen free (SPF) Wistar rats were randomly divided into four group: PQ plus PBS group (n = 20), PQ plus MSCs group (n = 20), MSCs plus PBS group (n=20), normal group (n = 20). The forth generation of MSCs were transfected with Ad5-EGFP virus vector, and then the MSCs-EGFP was delivered to rats through the tail vein of rats 4h after PQ. Five rats of each group were sacrificed 1 d, 3 d, 7 d and 28 days after MSCs administration, and lung tissues of rats were taken to make sections for histological observation of the migration of MSCs under fluorescence inverted microscope. The lung tissues of rats sacrificed on the 28 th day after PQ poisoning were taken for detecting pulmonary coefficient and the content of hydroxyproline (HYP) in the lung tissue homogenate, and at the same time, the levels of serum transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) were assayed. Results The pathological changes of lung tissue showed that the pulmonary fibrosis and consolidation in the MSCs treatment group were milder than those in PQ poisoning model group. In the MSCs treatment group, the levels of serum TGF-β1 and lung tissue HYP, and pulmonary coefficient were lower than those of PQ poisoning model group (P＜0.05). Conclusions The use of MSCs for treatment of paraquat intoxication can protect pulmonary structure by decrease in TGF-B1 and inhibiting the fibroblast migration, suppressing the production of collagenous protein.

BACKGROUND:Tissue-engineered biomaterials have the similar structure and function with autologous tissues. OBJECTIVE:To explore the osteoinduction of the bone biomaterial composited with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in the treatment of large costal defects. METHODS:Forty Wistar rats were enrol ed used for the preparation of right large costal defect models, and then randomized into two groups, fol owed by the implantation of calcium chloride-sodium alginate gel (control group) or chloride-sodium alginate-bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s (experimental group). At 2, 4 and 8 weeks after implantation, chest X-ray radiograph and histological examination of the defect region were conducted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:X-ray showed that in the experimental group, the defect area had no significant changes at the 2nd week after implantation until the formation of few bones at the 4th week;and at the 8th week, both ends of the defect region gradual y connected, and newly formed bones were ful of the defect. In contrast, the defect region in the control group showed no obvious bone healing, and both ends of the defect closed and osteosclerosis occurred. In the experimental group, there were a smal amount of fibrous tissues and numerous inflammatory cel s infiltratied in the material compartment, and no connection occured between the material and broken ends;there were numerous inflammatory cel s but no bone tissues in the control group at the 2nd week. At the 4th week, the scaffold degraded gradual y and abundant bone tissues were seen in the experimental group;the scaffold degraded little, and bone tissues aggregatied at the both defect ends in the control group. Up to the 8th week, the two kinds of scaffolds degraded mostly. A large number of bone tissues and trabeculae formed and the both defect ends were connected with the newly formed bones in the experimental groups, while in the control group, osteosclerosis appeared at both ends of the defect. To conclude, the bone biomaterial composited with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s promotes the repair of large costal defects.

AIM: To explore the mechanism of myocardium protection after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by preconditioning with ischemia in human. METHODS: Thirty - six patients underwent valve replacement were divided into ischemic preconditioning group (IP group, 20 cases) and non -ischemic preconditioning group (control group, 16 cases) according to whether they were given single cycle reperfusion before cardioplegia or not. Serum levels of interleukin -8 and 10 were measured with ELISA. Expressions of myocardial Bel -2 and caspase -3 were analyzed. RESULTS: The inflammatory factors IL - 8 and IL - 10 increased to the highest level in serum at 6 h after declamping and recovered to normal level on 5 d after declamping. On 6 h, 1 d and 2 d after declamping, serum level of IL -8 was significantly lower in IP group than that in control group ( P < 0.05 ) , but serum level of IL -10 was higher in IP group (P < 0.05 ). Expression of myocardial Bel - 2 and caspase - 3 increased in both groups after reperfusion, and Bel - 2 was lower in the control group than that in IP group while the level of caspase - 3 was higher (P < 0.05). Expression of myocardial Bel - 2 had positive correlation with IL - 10 and negative correlation with IL - 8.CONCLUSION: Ischemic preconditioning has the effect of protection of human myocardial cells after ischemia/reperfusion injury through decreasing systemic inflammatory response following ischemia reperfusion injury.
