Objective To prepare and identify the monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific to epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and explore the function of the mAb.Methods The EpCAM antigen expressed by the prokaryotic expression systems was used to immunize the BALB/c mice,and then the splenic cells from the mice were fused with the Sp2/0 cells to produce hybridomas secreting specific mAb.The positive clones were screened by the ELISA.The western blot analysis was used to identify the reactivity of the mAb to the antigen.Then the immunohistochemistry staining was used to detect EpCAM expression in the 3 primary colorectal carcinoma tissues.Results Three mAb specific to EpCAM were obtained by ELISA tests.Western blot results indicated that these three kinds of antibodies could react to the EpCAM antigen,but no response to the GST tag.Immunohistochemical staining results identified that these mAb could give positive signals to the primary colorectal carcinoma tissues from patients.Conclusion Three mAb specific to EpCAM are obtained and identified,which contributes to the diagnosis and therapy of the carcinoma in the future.

BACKGROUND:Liver cancer pathogenesis and intervention have attracted increasing attentions. Mesenchymal stem cel s become a popular tool for cel cancer research, because of their low immunogenicity and tumor tropism. At present, mesenchymal stem cel s have been applied to the study of liver cancer.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the advances of mesenchymal stem cel s used in liver cancer in basic and clinical research.
METHODS:An online retrieval of CNKI and Pubmed database was performed by the first author for the articles about mesenchymal stem cel s and effect of modified mesenchymal stem cel s on hepatoma carcinoma cel s published from January 2004 to January 2013. The key words were“mesenchymal stem cel , liver cancer, tumor”in Chinese and English. Repetitive research was excluded, and 47 studies met the inclusion criteria.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Stem cel s are seldom reported in liver cancer, and the limited present study show that mesenchymal stem cel s may have a certain influence on the hepatoma carcinoma cel proliferation, invasion and biological behavior. However, due to the differences of cel lines used by the various laboratories, experimental conditions, animal models, as wel as infusion means of stem cel s, experimental results are also inconsistent. Scholars have conducted a series of studies on the mechanism of the Wnt pathway and tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand pathway. Tropism of mesenchymal stem cel s to tumor cel s, including liver cancer is widely recognized, so scholars imported therapeutic genes and drugs into mesenchymal stem cel s to interfere with the development of liver cancer, and have achieved some progress. This evidence provides new avenues for cel therapy for liver cancer. Less safety studies in vivo and clinical trials of mesenchymal stem cel s are available, therefore security risks deserve further research.

Objective To investigate the MRI features of spinal epidural angiolipomas.Methods Clinical and MRI data of 18 patients with spinal epidural angiolipomas confirmed pathologically were retrospective analyzed.The MRI features of lesion site,size,shape,signal,bone destruction,enhancement and typing were observed and analyzed.Results One case of 18 cases were located in cervical vertebra,15 cases were thoracic vertebra,and 2 cases were lumbar vertebra.Ten cases formed paravertebral lump through foramen intervertebrale and damaged adjacent bones.MRI showed that T1W1 signal intensity was either isointense (n 11),mixed intense (n=5) or hyperintense (n =2).T2WI showed signal intensity was hyperintense (n=13) or mixed intense (n=5).The fat signal was seen in 5 cases,both T1W1 and T2W1 showed hyperintense.All the 18 cases showed remarkable enhancement.Ⅰ type (lesions confined to the spinal canal) was 8 cases (8/18,44.44%),Ⅱ type (lesions were dumbbell-shaped to the spinal canal) was 10 cases (10/18,55.56%).Conclusion The location of occurrence and the manifestations of MRI in spinal epidural angiolipomas have certain characteristics,which provides important clues to the preoperative diagnosis.

Objective To study the association of early prognosis and risk factors about early neurological deterioration (END) in aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia. Methods One hundred and thirty-nine aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia were selected. The patients were divided into END group (59 cases) and non-END group (80 cases), the clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were followed up 3 months after discharge, the prognosis was evaluated by modified Rankin scale. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors of END. Results The incidence of END was 42.4%(59/139). The incidence of unfavourable prognosis in END group was significantly higher than that in non-END group:78.0%(46/59) vs. 30.0%(24/80), and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The score of Canadian stroke scale (CSS) at admission in END group was significantly lower than that in non-END group: (5.2 ± 2.1) scores vs. (6.9 ± 1.7) scores, but the white blood cell count at admission, hematoma volume and brain ventricle hemorrhage rate were significantly higher than those in non-END group: (10.7 ± 2.9) × 109/L vs. (7.9 ± 2.4) × 109/L, (17.4 ± 14.9) ml vs. (11.2 ± 10.5) ml and 42.4%(25/59) vs. 18.8%(15/80), and there were statistical differences (P < 0.05). There were no statistical differences in sex, age, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, body temperature, random blood glucose, fibrinogen, activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time and the incidences of hypertension, smoking history, stroke, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia between 2 groups (P>0.05). The Logistic regression analysis results showed that brain ventricle hemorrhage and white blood cell count at admission were independent risks factor for END in aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia(P < 0.05 or < 0.01). Conclusions The aged patients with cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia will be prone to END, the brain ventricle hemorrhage and white blood cell count at admission are independent risks factor for END, and the early prognosis is poor.
