At present,the main treatment methods of solid tumor are radiotherapy and ehemotherapy.Traditional radiotherapy and chemotherapy have certain limitations because of resistance and toxicity.High dose chemoradiotherpy with hematopoietie stem cell transplantation(HSCT)support can reduce resistance and toxicity,enhance the effectiveness of treatment.But there are still high relapse rate after transplantation and short survival period.How to strengthen the following treatment is worth of further study.This review will focus on the feasibility,treatment time,therapeutic effect and research advancement of HSCT for solid tumor.

Objective: To provide anatomical basis for the chemotherapy of lingual arterial embolization in clinic. Methods: The origin, course, branch distribution and anastomosis of the lingual artery were observed in 15 cases of adult head specimens. Results: As one of principal branches, the lingual artery arises from the external carotid artery at the level of the major cornu of hyoeides, approaches to the carotid bifurcation. With original diameter of (2.4?0.3) mm, it runs upward and passes deepwards to the hyoglossus muscle, gives off the dorsal lingual artery and the terminal branch -profunda lingual artery. Limited in each side of intrinsic muscles, two profunda lingual arteries creep tortuously along the muscular fibers and anastomose freely to structure submucous arterial rete. Conclusion: With concentrated origins, wide vascular diameter, constant course and enrichment of submucous arterial rete, the lingual artery is an ideal blood vessel for arterial chemoembolization.

Objective To investigate the methods and the therapeutic effects of groin flap and stylus recurrent branch of radial artery flap for the repair of severely contracture of the first web space. Methods From March 2007 to six 2009,45 patients with severely contracture of the first web space received treatment of groin flaps and stylus recurrent branch of radial artery flaps, with 6 to 12 months clinical observation. Among then, 33 patients received treatment of groin flaps, 12 patients received treatment of stylus recurrent branch of radial artery flaps, and 28 patients received the first web space widening as well as functional reconstruction of thumb abduction. Results Most of the flaps healed by first intention but also with distal necrosis for 3 stylus recurrent branch of radial artery flaps and 1 groin flap. And the weth of the first web space of all patients were more than 90% of comparison. From clinical observation,function of opposition recovered well. While some groinflaps got a litte fat and clumsy .The color of most flaps was as similar as normal besides, some groin flaps occurrenced pigmentation. Conclusion Children and adults below 50 yesrs should choose the groin flap, and aged people and adults more than 50yesrs shuould choose the stylus recurrent branch of radial artery flap firstly.

Objective To observe the effect of transplanting the adipose-dervived stem cells(ADSCs) on free radical metabolism and immune function of rat aging model induced by D-galactose from fasiaology perspective;to explore a new method for anti-aging. Methods The ADSCs were cultured in vitro. Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: normal control group(A), aging model group(B) and treat group(C). Ten rats in each group. Rats in B and C groups were injected D-galactose continually into make the sub-acute aging model rats.After 8-week injections of D-galactose;R3ats in group C were injected ADSCs(3×10~6/ml) through caudal vein. After 2-week transplantions of ADSCs, T-SOD, CuZn-SOD, MDA, NO, IL-2 and spleen index levels in serums of each group were detected and compared among the three groups. Results Compared with the A group, the SOD, NO, IL-2 level and spleen index in serum in group B decreased significantly, while the contents of MDA increased significantly. Compared with group B, the SOD, NO, IL-2 level and spleen index in serum in group C had been improved, and the contents of MDA decreased significantly. Conclusion Transplanting ADSCs can improve the antioxidant ability and strengthen the cellular immune function of aging rats.Further more, it can delay the ageing procedure induced by D-galactose in rats.

Objective To observe expression level of serum vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C),VEGF-C receptor-2 and VEGF-C receptor-3 in patients with acute leukemia (AL) and to explore its clinical significance.Methods Enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum expression levels of VEGF-C,VEGFR-2,and VEGFR-3 of 51 patients diagnosed with acute leukemia,43 patients under medical treatment and 16 healthy blood donors.Results (1) Serum VEGF-C,VEGFR-2,and VEGFR-3 expression levels in AL patients were significantly higher than those in normal control group.(2) Serum VEGF-C and VEGFR-2 expression levels in complete remission (CR) group significantly declined after treatment.Serum VEGF-C and VEGFR-2 expression levels in non-complete remission (NR) group slightly declined after treatment but no significant difference was found (P＞0.05).(3) No significant difference was found in serum VEGFR-3 expression levels both in CR group and NR group after treatment (P＞0.05).(4) Serum VEGF-C,VEGFR-2,and VEGFR-3 expression levels in NR group were significantly higher than those in CR group before treatment (P＜0.08).Conclusions Observing serum expression level of VEGF-C,VEGFR-2,and VEGFR-3 of AL patients may be helpful in monitoring curative effects and prognosis of acute leukemia.

BACKGROUND:The researches about the effect of retinoic acid on the proliferation of adipose-derived stem cells are rare, and the researches on the testosterone are mainly on the inhibition of cellaging. OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of retinoic acid and testosterone or combination on the cellcycle of adipose derived stem cells. METHODS:Adipose derived stem cells were isolated from adult female Sprague Dawley rats with 2 months age and cultured in vitro til passage 3 adipose derived stem cells, and then the 3rd passage adipose-derived stem cells were performed with adipogenic induction, osteogenic induction and surface marker identification. The cells were divided into six groups:(1) Control group;(2) 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid group;(3) Retinoic acid group;(4) 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group;(5) 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group;(6) Testosterone group. The adipose-derived stem cells in the control group were cultured with Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium+10%fetal bovine serum culture medium, and the adipose-derived stem cells in the other five groups were induced with corresponding dose of retinoic acid and testosterone on the basis of control group. After cultured for 36 hours, the flow cytometry was used to detect the changes of cellcycle. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, cellproportions in phase G 1 of 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid group and 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid group were increased significantly, and the cellproportions in phase S were decreased. Compared with control group, the cellproportion in phase G 1 of testosterone group was significantly reduced, and the cellproportion in phase S was increased. Compared with 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid group and 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid group, cellproportions in phase G 1 of 10-5 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group and 10-6 mol/L retinoic acid+testosterone group were reduced significantly and the cellproportions in phase S were increased. Retinoic acid can inhibit the cellcycle of adipose-derived stem cells in phase G 1 , and delay the process of the cellcycle from phase G1 to phase S;while testosterone can promote the cellcycle of adipose-derived stem cells from phase G1 to phase S;the combination induction of retinoic acid and testosterone can accelerate the process of the cellcycle of adipose-derived stem cells from phase G 1 to phase S.

OBJECTIVETo investigate whether adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) induced by retinoic acid (RA) in vitro express primordial germ cell marker alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and vasa.

METHODSADSCs were isolated from adult female SD rats and cultured in vitro. The third passage of ADSCs was identified by adipogenic differentiation, osteogenic differentiation and cell surface marker detection. The ADSCs were treated with 1×10(-5), 1×10(-6), or 1×10(-7) mol/L RA for 7 or 14 days, and the cellular expression of ALP was detected. vasa mRNA expression in ADSCs treated with 1×10(-5) mol/L RA for 7 days was detected using RT-PCR.

RESULTSThe OD value of ADSCs treated with 1×10(-5), 1×10(-6), or 1×10(-7) mol/L RA was 0.59∓0.04, 0.27∓0.07, and 0.15∓0.03 after a 7-day treatment, and was 0.42∓0.02, 0.34∓0.01, and 0.19∓0.02 after a 14-day treatment, respectively, demonstrating significantly enhanced ALP expression in RA-treated ADSCs compared with that in the control cells (0.07∓0.01 and 0.07∓0.01 at 7 and 14 days, respectively, P<0.01). The ADSCs showed a negative vasa mRNA expression after 1×10(-5) mol/L RA treatment for 7 days.

CONCLUSIONRA-induced ADSCs express ALP, a marker of primordial germ cells, but does not express the primordial germ cell marker vasa.

Objective To evaluate the mean blood flow(MF) and pulsatility index(PI) of individual and sequential sa-phenous vein grafts in posterior descending artery(PDA) in the same patient undergone off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG).Methods 140 patients with coronary artery disease were studied.Sequential surgical technique using single large saphenous vein was used in grafts of diagnostic artery(DIAG)(side-side), obtuse marginal artery(OM)(side-side), and PDA( end-side) .Bulldog clamps were used to temporarily arrest the anastomoses of DIAG and OM near the large saphenous vein .Thus the sequential graft became to the single graft , the MF and PI of PDA were recorded in the simulating single graft by the transit-time flow measurement(TTFM), after that, bulldog clamps were removed and the MF and PI of PDA were recorded again in the real sequential graft.The data were compared.Six months later after surgery, coronary CTA were done in all pa-tients in clinic.Results The MF of single graft and sequential graft was(22.5 ±13.1)ml/min and(22.2 ±12.9)ml/min(P>0.05).The PI of single graft and sequential graft was 2.43 ±0.94 and 2.38 ±0.88(P>0.05).The patency of all grafts is good in all patients after 6 months follows-up.Conclusion There ars no hemodynamic differences between individual and sequential grafts in PDA.It is reasonable that the short-term surgical result is the same in individual and sequential grafts in PDA.

Objective: To observe the cardiomyocytes regeneration after myocardial infarction in Chinese small pigs, analyze the mechanism of myocardial fibrosis after myocardial regeneration. Methods: Nine Chinese small pigs, weight 18-20 kg, 6 pigs in the experimental group(to ligate LAD at the equal blood flow point), and 3 in the control group(no any operation was performed). Monitor the hemodynamics of the left ventricle. Cardiac specimens were taken after 4 weeks of LAD ligation, the left ventricle was divided into 17 segments, and fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 1 week. Hematoxylin-Eosin/(HE) staining, PTAH、Ki-67-DAB and α-sarcomeric-actin-DAB staining for pathological observation. Results: Four weeks of LAD ligation, different range of infarct size could be found in all the 17 segment of left ventricle. There was significant systolic pressure difference between the proximal and distal part in the left ventricular cavity. After 4 weeks of LAD ligation, there were a large number of new cardiomyocytes around the infarction area, which connected with the original mature cardiomyocytes directly. Large number of disassembled cardiomyocytes in the infarcted area and myocardial fibers were broken, cell structure disappeared, and nuclei were scattered in fibrotic tissues. Conclusion New cardiomyocytes after myocardial infarction were derived from the mature cardiomyocytes. Myocardial regeneration, cell disintegration, and myocardial fibrosis were performed synchronously under the influence of myocardial tension.
