Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)exist in and can be isolated from the bone marrow of adult human being and animals and can be induced to differentiate into different cells.They are easy to be isolated,cultivated,and amplified.They are also less immunogenic in the body and can avoid ethical dispute when applied in transplantation.Studies have shown that BMSCs can be induced to differentiate into neural cells under certain conditions in vitro.This article reviewed the recent development in the research on the induction protocols for neural differentiation of BMSCs and the possible mechanisms.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of laparoscopic adrenalectomy and summarize the experience in laparoscopie adrenalectomy.Methods From August 2002 to March 2007,21 cases of benign adrenal tumors were treated with retroperitoneal laparoscopy in this hospital.There were 9 cases of adrenocortical adenoma, 7 cases of primary aldosteronism,3 cases of adenocorticol macronodular hyperplasia,1 case of pheochromccytoma,and 1 case of adrenal gangliocytoma.Results Retroperitoneal laparoscopy was successfully applied in 21 cases.Operating time was between 65 and 130min with an average of 95 min.All patients did not receive blood transfusion and had no obvious complications.Conclusion Laparoscopic adrenalectomy had the advantages of minimal morbidity,mini- mal postoperative discomfort and a short hospital stay,whieh had a good prospect for application in the clinical prac- tice.

Objective To evaluate the role of spinal Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway in the development of inflammatory pain in rats.Methods Thirty-six adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups (n=12 each) using a random number table:control group,inflammatory pain group and TLR4 signaling pathway inhibitor epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) group (EGCG group).Inflammatory pain was induced by injecting 50 μl of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) into the ankle joint cavity of the left hindpaw of rats anesthetized with isoflurane.At 1-3 days after injection of CFA,EGCG 30 μg was intrathecally injected once a day in group EGCG.At 1,3 (30 min after intrathecal injection),5and 7 days after injection of CFA,the mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured.The ipsilateral L4.5 segments of the spinal cord were removed at 3 days after CFA injcction for determination of TLR4 expression (by Western blot) and contents of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-oα),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1β in the spinal dorsal horn (by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay).Results Compared with control group,the MWT was significantly decreased and the TWL was shortened at each time point after injection of CFA,the expression of TLR4 in the spinal dorsal horn was up-regulated,and contents of TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β in the spinal dorsal horn were increased in inflammatory pain group (P＜ 0.05),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in EGCG group (P＞0.05).Compared with inflammatory pain group,the MWT was significantly increased and the TWL was prolonged at each time point after injection of CFA,the expression of TLR4 in the spinal dorsal horn was down-regulated,and contents of TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β in the spinal dorsal horn were decreased in EGCG group (P＜0.05).Conclusion Spinal TLR4 signaling pathway is involved in the development of inflammatory pain in rats.

Bronchial asthma is the most common chronic diseases in children.Asthma can not be fully explained by imbalance of Thl/Th2.With the research progress of CD4+ CD25+ Treg cell,it has been found that CD4+ CD25+ Treg cell related factors such as forkhead/winged helix transcription factor,heine oxygenase-1,transforming growth factor-?,cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 are closely linked to asthmatic mechanisms.

Objective The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a new method of cardiac assistant therapy with an extra-aortic balloon pump on the experimental dogs in which myocardial ischemia or infarction were induced, and to ob serve its effectiveness and feasibility. Methods Twelve animal models of myocardia 1 infarction were established with the method of left anterior descending coronary artery ligation. They were divided randomly into two groups, six in the experimental group and six in the untreated group. The end points observed were the differences between the two groups in the blood pressure, cardiac function, myocardial enzymes, infarction size and routine blood variables before procedure, 1,2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours after myocardial infarction. Results All six dogs in the experimental group were survived, with a mortality rate of 0.The number of death in the control group was three, with a mortality rate of 50%. Measurements such as mean blood pressure,cardiac output, cardiac index in the experimental group were better than those in the control group ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Mean heart rate before myocardial infarction in the experimental group was 156 beats per minute, as compared with 148 beats per minute in the control group, and was 128 vs. 67 beats per minute respectively six hours after myocardial infarction. The cardiac output was 3.48 vs. 4.98 liters per minute before myocardial infarction and was 6.10 vs. 0.85 liters per minute six hours after myocardial infarction. The average pressure was 94 mm Hg vs. 99 mm Hg before myocardial infarction and was 70 mm Hg vs. 33 mm Hg six hours after myocardial infarction. Conclusion The extra-aortic balloon pump significantly improved the hemodynamic variables of the experimental animals after myocardial infarction and reduced mortality. Injury to the blood cells may be the potential disadvantage.

BACKGROUND:We built Sprague-Dawley rat models with mild, moderate, and severe spinal cord injuries to accord with the spinal cord injury types for basic empirical study, and consequently to further understand the microenvironmental change in Sprague-Dawley rats with spinal cord injury, and to provide help for clinical treatment. OBJECTIVE:To observe the changes in nerve function, pathological manifestation and motor sensory evoked potential in Alen’s models and Sprague-Dawley rats with complete spinal cord transection at different time points after spinal cord injury by simulating the microenviroment in Sprague-Dawley rats. METHODS: A total of 125 healthy adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were selected and randomly divided into group sham operation group, 100 gcf hit potential group (20 g×5 cm), 200 gcf hit potential (20 g×10 cm), 300 gcf hit potential group (20 g×15 cm), and spinal cord complete transection group with 25 rats in each group. At 1, 5, 7, 14 and 28 days after model establishment, the degree of spinal cord injury was identified by the BBB scores of motion function, motor evoked potential, and pathological section. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Totaly 24 Sprague-Dawley rats died in the experiment. The death rate and the rate of complications were highest in the spinal cord complete transection group. The BBB score of each group was decreased. The BBB scores in every group increased as time went on. There were significant differences between each surgery group and the sham operation group at corresponding time points (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found between the 300 gcf hit potential group and the spinal cord complete transection group at corresponding time points (P > 0.05). (2) In each surgery group, the infiltration of inflammatory cels and obvious sweling of neurons were visible at 1 day after injury. Neural cels reduced with time prolonged. At 28 days after injury, a large number of astrocytes proliferated, scar and spinal cord cavity formed. Above symptoms were worse in the 300 gcf hit potential group and spinal cord complete transection group than in the 100 gcf and 200 gcf hit potential groups. (3) Significant differences in amplitude and latency were detectable between each surgery group and the sham operation group (P < 0.05). No significant difference in amplitude and latency was detected between the 300 gcf hit potential group and the spinal cord complete transection group at corresponding time points (P > 0.05). Results confirmed that hit potential of 20 g×5 cm, 20 g×10 cm and 20 g×15 cm can simulate the microenvironment of Sprague-Dawley rats with mild, moderate and severe spinal cord injury. The rate of complication was lower in modified Alen’s model of different hit potentials than in models of spinal cord complete transection, and was more accorded with basic research.

Background:Colonoscopy is considered as a standard method for detecting various kinds of colorectal polyps. However,conventional colonoscopy( CC)still has the chance to miss some lesions. Literatures have already reported that transparent hood assisted colonoscopy( THAC)can improve the detection of colorectal polyps. However,the effect of black hood assisted colonoscopy( BHAC)on detection of colorectal polyps is still unclear. Aims:To evaluate the effect of BHAC on detection of colorectal polyps. Methods:A total of 1 076 patients underwent CC and BHAC from Sept. 2014 to April 2015 at Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University were enrolled in this prospective randomized controlled study. Baseline characteristics,cecal intubation time,withdrawal time,number of polyps,detection rate of polyps,location, size,morphology and pathological diagnosis of polyps between two groups were compared. Results:Compared with CC group,cecal intubation time was significantly shorter in BHAC group than in CC group[(6. 31 ± 3. 51)min vs.(7. 05 ± 4. 15)min,P=0. 002]. No significant differences in withdrawal time and rate of cecal intubation were found between two groups(P>0. 05). Detection rate of polyps was significantly higher in BHAC group than in CC group(65. 4% vs. 48. 7%,P=0. 004). No significant differences in size,morphology of polyps were found between two groups(P>0. 05). Conclusions:Compared with CC,BHAC could significantly improve the detection of colorectal polyps,and shorten cecal intubation time.

Objective To assess the surgical treatment of iatrogenic biliary strictures. Methods The clinical data of 235 patients with iatrogenic biliary injuries and strictures who had been admitted to our hospital from January 1989 to December 2006 were reviewed retrospectively. Cholangio-jejunal Roux-en-Y anastomosis (n=182), surgical repair with pediele flap of autogenous tissues (n=34), end-to-end choledocho-choledo-chostomy (n= 12), common bile duct incision and figuration +T-tube drainage ( n =6) and liver transplanta-tion ( n = 1 ) were applied to the patients. Results A total of 189 patients were followed up for 1 to 10 years. The total excellent and good rate was 94.7% (179/189). The recurrence rate of the biliary stricture was 5.3% (10/189), and the main cause of which were biliary cirrhosis, selerosing cholangitis and calculus. One patient with severe biliary cirrhosis and portal hypertension died of liver failure postoperatively. Conclusions The cholangio-jejunal Roux-en-Y anastomosis is a reliable and effective method. Surgical repair of the bile duet with pedicle flap of autogenous tissues could preserve the function of the sphincter of Oddi, but the long-term effect needs further investigation. Biliary stent is not usually necessary to install. Liver transplantation is efficient for the patients with end stage of biliary diseases caused by biliary stricture.
