Objective:To isolate breast cancer stem/progenitor cells from human breast cancer and study their proliferation and differentiation biological characteristics over long-term passages in vitro. Methods:Human breast cancer stem/progenitor cells were enriched in suspension cultures as nonadherent mammospheres(MS). Serial sphere formation assay was performed to determine self-renewal ability of mammosphere-derived cells (MSDC). Differentiation was induced by culturing MSDC in DMEM-F12 supplemented with serum but without growth factors. The ratio of CD44~+/CD24~(-/low) cell population was evaluated by flow cytometry(FCM). Results:The mammospheres were formed after inoculation of primary breast cancer cells into culcutre medium with growth factors but without serum. The mammospheres contained undifferentiated cells similar to stem cells, which had self-renewal and extensive proliferation capabilities. With increasing passages, the cells tended to adhere and differentiate. The number of adhering and differentiating cells increased, and the amount and size of mammospheres decreased. The CD44~+/CD24~(-/low) cell population was enriched in the basal-like molecular subtype of human breast tumors. The biological behaviors of mammospheres varied between different specimens.Conclusion:Cancer cells with stem cell properties of self-renewal, indefinite proliferation and multi-lineage differentiation widely existed in human breast cancer tissues. The biological behaviors varied because of different origin of specimens and changed under the effects of environmental factors.

Objective To discuss wound edge characteristics at different clinical periods and in-tervention of traumatic perforation of tympanic membrane. Methods A total of 494 patients wth trau-matic perforation of tympanic membrane were treated and grouped based on treatment time and size of per-foration. Group A (n = 154, within 12 hours after injury) were treated by residual tympanic membrane repair and gelfoam. Group B (n =149, 12 hours after injury) were treated by simple gelfoam. Group C (n = 116) and Group D (n =75) were treated by conventional therapy. The wound healing of peroration was observed after one month. Results Of all, there were 419 patients with maximum perforation diameter > 2.5 mm within five hours after injury, of which 349 patients (83.3%) were with residual tympanic membrane valgus of perforation rim, 29 (6.9%) with involution of perforation rim and 41 (9.8%) with complete loss of tympanic membrane. Of 75 patients with maximum perforation diameter <2.5 ram, residual valgus of perforation rim was found in 18 (24.0%) and tympanic membrane wrinkle near wound edge in the other patients. Under endoscopic repair of crimp tympanic membrane, maximum perforation diameter was reduced for (6.5±2.5)mm in 143 patients at 6th hour, (6.0±1.5)mm in 11at 7-11 hours, (2.0±1.5) mm in 27 at 13-24 hours, (1.5±1.0) mm in 59 at 25.5-48 hours, (1.0±0.5) mm in 49 at 51-73 hours and 0 mm in 14 at 75-192 hours. The follow up lasted for one month, which showed that healing rate of perforation in groups A, B, C and D were 85.3%, 71.2%, 59.2% and 81.4%, respectively. Healing time span was (10±4) days, (19±4) days, (25±2) days and (16±2) days, respectively. Conclusions Traumatic perforation of tympanic membrane is not com-plete tympanal deletion but residual tympanic membrane valgus of perforation rim,involution and tympanicmembrane crushing, which shows insignificant change with time. In time repair of residual tympanic membrane 12 hours(especially 6 hours) after injury may reduce the largest diameter of perforation and re-markably shorten the healing time of perforation.
