Objective To investigate the effect of purified single clonally mesenchymal cells (SCMSCs) on cardiac function in rat models and also try to find out wheter SCMSCs serve as a better source for transplantation than UMSCs, BM-MNCs and PB-MNCs. Methods SCMSCs were isolated, cultured, purified, cloned and expanded. UMSCs were isolated primarily by their tight adherence to the culture dishes. BM-MNCs and PB-MNCs were prepared by Ficoll-Hypaque gradient centrifugation. All cell characters were verified by fluorescence- activated cell sorter (FACS). A total of 5?10~6 PB-MNCs, BM-MNCs, UMSCs, and SCMSCs were transplanted into the ischemic zone immediately after MI. The cardiac function was evaluated by hemodynamic technique 1 month after the transplantation. The vessel density and cell differentiation were determined by histological techniques. Results SCMSCs expressed over 99% of the mesenchymal cell surface protein and none of the hematopoietic stem cell surface protein. Hemodynamics showed that transplantation of snMSC led to the greatest improvement in cardiac function, compared with PB-MNCs, BM-MNCs, and UMSCs transplantation. In consistence with cardiac function recovery, SCMSCs transplantation resulted in the greatest angiogenesis in the ischemic wall, and the greatest number of transplanted SCMSCs expressed these cardiomyocyte proteins, or vascular endothelial cell marker, in comparison with the other heterogeneous cells. Conclusion Transplantation of single clonally purified non-hematopoietic mesenchymal stem cells from human bone marrow showed the greatest imporvement in cardiac function compared to UMSC, BM-MNC, and PB-MNC in this study.

Objective To investigate the effects of emodin on the migration and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) and the metabolism of emodin in VSMC. Methods The effects of emodin on the migration or proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cell were measured by “transwell" migration system and MTT assay. Results The migration of VSMC could be significantly inhibited by emodin and the inhibitory ratio was 83.8% in 5 ?g/mL emodin group. The antiproliferative effect of emodin was in a dose- and time- dependent manner. However, the supernatant concentration of emodin insignificantly dereased after culture for 24 h. The cytotoxicity of emodin and cellular ROS was not influenced by CYP inducer or inhibitor. The mRNA expression of emodin's primary metabolic enzyme (cytochrome p450 oxidase, CYP) up-regulated insignificantly after treatment of emodin for 24 h. Conclusion Emodin can inhibit the migration and proliferation of VSMC and can not be metabolized by VSMC. Emodin may be a choice for the medication of drug-eluting stent.

Objective To observe the effect of acupuncture combined with integrated Chinese-Western neuromuscular facilitation technique on persistent vegetative state (PVS).Methods41 PVS cases were randomly divided into the observation group (n=21) and control group (n=20). The observation group was treated with acupuncture, neuromuscular facilitation technique combined with reasonable obligatory exercise, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, manipulation treatment and Chinese medicine. The control group was treated with the Western and Chinese medicines, and hyperbaric oxygen.ResultsAfter 1～3 months treatment, 7 cases cured,8 cases were markedly effective, 5 cases were effective, 1 cases were ineffective in the observation group with a total markedly effective rate (71.4%) and effective rate (95.2%). While, in the control group, 3 cases cured, 5 cases were markedly effective, 6 cases were effective, 6 cases were ineffective and total markedly effective rate was 40%, effective rate was 70%. There was a significant difference between the two groups in the total markedly effective rate and the effective rate ( P<0.05). The average PVS score increased by 7.46±1.22 in the observation group and 4.59±1.21 in the control group. Also there was a significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.001).ConclusionThe therapy of acupuncture combined with integrated Chinese-Western neuromuscular facilitation technique can markedly promote PVS patients coming round and improve patients' prognosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between aging-induced neointimal formation and Jagged 1 dynamic expression in endothelium after arterial injury in rats. MethodsForty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 3 months (young adult) and 22 months (old) were selected, and thirty of them were subjected to balloon catheter injury at the thoracic aorta. Morphometry analysis was applied to evaluate neointima/media ratio at 28 days after arterial injury. Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the dynamic expressions of Jaggedl in endothelium and the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in neointima at 7 days, 14 days and 28 days after arterial injury respectively. Cell co-culture system was developed by inoculating endothelial cells(EC) in the upper chamber and smooth musele eells(SMC) in the lower chamber. Fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS) was used to assay the effect of aging on the expression of Jagged 1 in EC. ＜'3＞H-TdR incorporation and cells counting were used to determine the influence of EC of different ages of rats on platelet derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced proliferation and migration of SMC. ResultsThe neointima/media ratio were obviously higher in old rats than in young rats (0.35±0.02 vs. 0.28±0.01, n=5, P＜0.01). Compared with the young counterparts, old rats showed in immunohistochemistry that the Jaggedl in endothelium displayed a delayed up-regulation and quickly diminished evolvement pattern. The maximal enhancing level of Jaggedl in old rats was much lower than that in young ones. However, the increased extent of PCNA in neointima was significantly higher in old rats than that in young ones. Jagged 1 expression in EC in old rats was significantly lower than that in young one[(46.6±6.3)% vs. (85.4±4.0)%,n=3, P＜0.05]. The SMC co-cultured with EC in old rats exhibited higher proliferation and migration capability than those in young ones after exposure to PDGF of 10ng/ml[2H-TdR incorporation: (26 438±1857) cpm/well vs. (16 698±2076)cpm/well, n=5, P＜0.05. migration:(32±4) cells/field vs. (18±5) cells/field, n=5, P＜0. 05]ConclusionsThe up-regulation of Jaggedl in EC is impaired in aged rats, which is closely related to aging-indueed SMC proliferation and migration. It also suggests that Jagged1 might be involved in the process of aging-exaggerated neointima formation.

Objective To ascertain the frequency distribution of CT examinations in children.Method A wide range of information was collected through the radiology information system (RIS),including ID,sex,birth date,examination time,the examined part of body and other relevant ones related to children who underwent CT examinations between Jan 1,2012 and Dec 31,2012.The SAS software was used for data processing and statistical analysis.Results A total of 1 542 children underwent 1 670 examinations,of which 67％ were male.Head CT examination was the most frequent,accounting for 71.9％ of all CT examinations,and followed by the abdomen/pelvis examinations.The number of examinations of children undergoing the repetitive examination accounted for 6.4％; 51.7％ of the examinations was for trauma.The positive rate of CT examination was 51％,dependent upon the age and examined body parts to some extent.The younger patients had lower positive rate,and the positive rate of head CT examination was lower than those in other parts.Conclusions To reduce the possible cancer risk to be induced by the ionizing radiation from CT,justification of CT examination should be considered for children.
