1.Risk factors for symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2016;24(10):924-929
Intravenous thrombolysis has been proved as an effective therapy for acute ischemic stroke.However,symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) occurred after thrombolysis will affect the recovery of patients,even endangers life when it is serious.Therefore,determining the risk factors for sICH after thrombolysis is helpful to select appropriate patients for thrombolytic therapy.The risk factors for slCH after thrombolysis include advanced age,male gender,obesity,higher National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores,hypertension,diabetes or higher blood glucose,atrial fibrillation,delayed thrombolysis time,antiplatelet therapy,anticoagulation therapy,and leukoaraiosis.However,some of the risk factors still have conflicting reports.Further large sample clinical studies are needed to confirm them.
2.Differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells to chondrocytes and its applications in cartilage repair
International Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2010;33(6):363-366,371
Articular cartilage as a load-bearing connective tissues may often be caused defects by trauma,sports, degenerative or age-related diseases. As articular cartilage has a limited inherent repair capacity, a large variety of treatment approaches including autologous chondrocyte transplantation, microfracture and mosaicplasty methods have been developed. However, there are limitations in these strategies especially when using autologous chondrcytes. Mesenchymal stem cells are considered the most promising seed cells in the study of tissue engineered cartilage. This review focuses on the induction of mesenchymal stem cells into chondrocytes in vitro and their application in cartilage repair.

The porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) can cause reproductive barriers in breeding pigs and respiratory symptoms in piglets. In this review, we summarize research progress of the infection and replication mechanisms of the PRRSV. We also review the virulence determinants of the PRRSV. All these fundamental studies are important for the control and elimination of the PRRSV.

Objective To investigate the expression of NF-?B,TNF-?,ICAM-1 in rat's brain tissue and the sequential changes of serum IL-1?,IL-6,IL-10 after focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion,and to observe the influence of the Shenxiong Injection.Methods Fifty-four male rats were randomly divided into control,Ligustrazin-treated and Shenxiong-treated group.Rats models of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)were made by using suture.Drew back sutures 1 hour after the blood supply were blocked.A series of brain and blood samples were obtained directly 6,12 and 24 hours respectively after reperfusion in three groups.The expression of NF-?B,TNF-? and ICAM-1 in the brain tissue was determined by immuno-histochemical method.Serum levels of IL-1?,IL-6 and IL-10 were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results As time of I/R prolonged,the expression of TNF-?,ICAM-1 upregulated,but NF-?B reached the maximum at R12 h in three groups.Compared with control group,expression of NF-?B,TNF-?,ICAM-1 in Shenxiong-treated group decreased significantly(P

Objective To observe the pituitary tumor transforming gene (PTTG), estradiol-stimulated protein 1 (ESP1) expressions in S, G 2/M phases in A549, SPC-A-1 cell lines. Methods The mammalian cells for cell cycle was synchronizated by thymidine, the total RNA in the S, G 2/M phases was collected, and the total RNA was observed by Real-time PCR. Results PTTG expression in A549 and SPC-A-1 cell lines was higher in S phase than that in G 2/M phase while no PTTG expression in MRC-5 cells in S, G 2/M phases. ESP1 expression in A549, SPC-A-1, MRC-5 cell lines was lower in S phase than that in G 2/M phase. Conclusion That no PTTG in S and G 2/M phases in the normal cell line and PTTG expression in the lung cancer cell line higher in S phase than that in G 2/M phase suggested that the aneuploidy may be caused by the overexpression of PTTG. ESP1 expression was lower in S phase than G 2/M phase in all of the three cell lines, suggesting that sister chromatids separation depend on the active ESP1.

Atherosclerosis is the most important pathological basis of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases. As an independent risk factor of atherosclerosis, fibrin(ogen) and its degradation products involve in the processes of the formation and development of atherosclerosis. This article reviews the relationship between fibrin(ogen) and/or its degradation products and atherosclerosis, and also introduces the development and application prospects for some specific motif antagonists of fibrin(ogen) in the treatment of atherosclerosis and ischemic cerebrovascular diseases.

Objective To evaluate the effect of driving forces similar to those found in dental plaque fluid on the enamel demineralization and ultrastructure of surface layer.Methods The sections of human enamel were exposed to lactic acid solutions with degree of saturation with respect to enamel and degree of saturation with respect to fluoroapatite for 96 h at 25 ℃,using the deionized water as control in the same conditions.Enamel demineralization was monitored using SEM and confocal laser scanning microscopy(CLSM).Results Only was enamel subsurface demineralization detected in solutions with DS_(EN)(0.1-0.3).Enamel mineral loss and micropores of surface layer decreased significantly with increasing DS_(EN) and DS_(FA) values.However,no mineral loss and micropores of surface layer was observed in sections of enamel exposed to solutions with DS_(EN) values of 0.4 and 0.5,which were covered with homogeneous remineralization layer.Conclusion The demineralization driving forces similar to dental plaque fluid under different DS_(EN) and DS_(FA) have significant effects on the surface layer of enamel and the subsurface demineralization process.

Objective To investigate the localization coexpression in situ of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-2,-8 and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in human atherosclerotic unstable plaques with monocytes,smooth muscle cells(SMCs)and endothelial cells(ECs).Methods The histopathologic changes of unstable human atherosclerotic plaques were observed by hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining,and the localization coexpression of MMP-2,MMP-8 and VEGF in the unstable human atherosclerotic plaques were observed by double fluorescent immunochemistry technology and confocal microscopy.Results The human atherosclerotic plaques in 6 cases had typical histopathologic instability,which was classified as super-Ⅳ type unstable plaques.The MMP-2 coexpression was the most obvious in the smooth muscle cells of fibrous cap infiltrated by monocyts,and in the monocytes of shoulder of plaques,and more expression of MMP-2 in the microvascular endothelial cells at the edge of shoulder and lipid necrosis;MMP-8 coexpressed obviously with the monocytes in the fibrous cap and lipid cores of plaques,and next to coexpressing in the smooth muscle cells of fibrous cap,while coexpression in endothelial cells was very little;VEGF coexpression was significant in the proliferative microvascular endothelial cells of plaques;The fibrous cap,which consisted of the smooth muscle cells mainly,and the edge of lipid necrosis infiltrated by more monocyts,were over-expression areas of VEGF.Conclnsions MMP-2,-8 and VEGF can coexpress with monocytes,SMCs and ECs in unstable plaques,and the major expression areas are in the fibrous cap,shoulder and micro-vessel at the edge of lipid necrosis,which are infiltrated by monocytes.Moreover,the outer membrane of vessel is involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis.
