Objective To explore the feasibility of using human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells as seed cells to repair sciatic nerve defects of rats by tissue engineering methods. Methods Mesenchymal stem cells from human umbilical cord were cultured and induced into neuron-liked cells,which were co-cultured with acellular basal lamina tube to construct tissue engineering nerve;models of sciatic nerve defects 10 mm in length were set up with thirty healthy adult SD rats and were divided randomly into 3 groups:tissue engineering nerve group (group A, compound of human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells and acellular basal lamina tube), pure acellular basal lamina tube group (group B), and autogenous nerve bridging group (group C). Evaluation of electrophysiological and histological results was carried out 10 weeks after operation. Results The engineering nerve group had good result in nerve regeneration which was close to the effect of autogenous nerve transfer group (group A), and much better than the effect of pure acellular basal lamina tube group. Conclusion Engineering nerves from human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells can effectively repair 10 mm defects of sciatic nerve.

Objective To study the occurrence of BRCA1 MSI in endometrial cancer and its relationship with clinic pathologic features; to explore the correlation between MSI and protein expression in BRCA1 gene. Methods Application of PCR-SSCP and DNA sequence analysis method was used to study D17S579 and D17S1349 in 49 sporadic endometrial cancer tissues, 20 cases with endometrial atypical hyperplasia and 28 cases with normal endometrial tissues. Results In the total samples of D17S579 and D17S1349, the three groups were significantly different: 34.69%(17/49) in the endometrial cancer group, 10%(2/20) in the endometrial atypical hyperplasia group and 7.14%(2/28) in the normal endometrium group (χ2= 11.208, P = 0.004). BRCA1 MSI positive rate related to the pathology grade and clinical stage, but no relationship was found in muscular infiltration depth, lymph node metastasis and histopathology types. In the endometrial cancer group, BRCA1 MSI positive rate and BRCA1 protein expression were in moderate correlated negatively (r = -0.779, P = 0.000). Conclusion BRCA1 MSI might play a role in the development of endometrial cancer, and low expression of BRCA1 protein. BRCA1 MSI might be associated with pathology grade and clinical stages in EC.

Objective To investigate the effects of artemin and its receptor GFRα - 3 on the invasion and metastasis of pancreatic cancer cells. Methods Human pancreatic cancer cell line MIA PaCa -2 was used in this study. Transwell cell culture chamber assay in vitro was used to detect the ability of invasion and metastasis of MIA PaCa -2 cells. The influence of artemin and GFRα -3 on the protein expression of MMP-2 and E-cadherin was investigated by Western blot and quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction-analyses (Q-RT-PCR). Results As the increase of artemin and GFRα -3, the invasion and metastasis of MIA PaCa- 2 was markedly increased [ 150 ng / ml concentration: Artemin group: 107.4 ± 11.4;GFRα3 group:94. 4 ± 9. 3 ;control group:34. 6 ± 7. 3, P < 0. 01 ]. With 150 ng / ml artemin and GFR-3,the synthesis of MMP-2 in MIA PaCa 2 cells was significantly increased than that in control group[ Artemin grou: (2. 17 ± 0. 05 ) × 108; GFRα3 group: (2. 02 ± 0. 03 ) × 108; control group: ( 1.02 ± 0. 02 ) × 108, t =6. 35,7. 32 ], while E-cadherin significantly decreased [ Artemin group: ( 0. 65 ± 0. 04 ) × 108; GFRα3 group: (0. 74 ± 0. 01 ) × 108; control group: ( 1. 36 ± 0. 03 ) × 108, t = 4. 27,5.61 ], the difference was statistically significant ( P <0. 01 ). Conclusions Artemin and its receptor GFRα3 could promote pancreatic cancer cell invasion and metastasis. This effect may be related to the up-regulated expression of MMP-2 and down regulated expression of E-cadherin.
