Objective To study the effect of hepatectomy operation on circulating tumor cells of liver cancer patients during surgery. Methods Circulating blood was draw from 18 liver cancer patients before and after hepatectomy and 20 healthy volunteers. Blood routine ex-amination for leukocyte enumeration and karyote counting by microscope were taken for every blood samples to compare with the number of leukocytes and karyotes between pre-hepatectomy and post-hepatectomy blood of liver cancer patients. Immunofluorescence and cell culture techniques were used to identify the tumor cells and compare with the numbers and characteristics of the circulating tumor cells in blood sam-ples among all groups. Fluorescent antibodies,AE1/AE3 and CD133 were used to mark tumor cells. Results The number of leukocytes and karyotes in post-hepatectomy blood samples of liver cancer patients increased compared with pre-hepatectomy blood samples. The AE1/AE3 positive cells-samples were more than CD133 positive cells-samples and double positive cells-samples(P<0. 001). AE1/AE3 positive cells of healthy volunteers’ blood were more than post-hepatectomy blood of liver cancer patients(P<0. 05). No significant differences in CD133 positive cells and double positive cells were found among all groups(P>0. 05). There were no significant differences in clone formation rate after cell culture among all groups(P>0. 05). For 3 clone formed samples of liver cancer patients,there were no differences in tumor source, pathologic type and differentiation level. Conclusion The circulating blood of liver cancer patients,non-cancer patients and healthy people all exist circulating tumor cells. Hepatoma resection does not affect the number and characteristics of circulating tumor cells in liver cancer pa-tients’ blood.

OBJECTIVE:To select the optimum conditions for germination test of Sophora alopecuroides seed,and to provide reference for formulating seed test rule and standardization of S. alopecuroides. METHODS:S. alopecuroides seeds were soaked in 98% H2SO4 for 30 min and 35 ℃ warm water for 29 h,and then treated under different temperature conditions (15 ℃,20 ℃, 25℃and 30℃),different germination beds(on paper,between paper,on sand,in sand)and different light conditions(2 000 lx lighting 16 h,dark). Optimal germination condition was screened by using germination rate,germinative potential and germinative index as indicators. S. alopecuroides seeds were cultured under this condition for 7 days,and then germination rate was determined. RESULTS:Different temperatures had no significant effect on germination rate,but influenced germinative potential and germina-tive index;those indicators reached maximal value at 20 ℃. Different germination beds affected each indicator,and under condi-tion of on sand,those indicators were the highest. Light treatment had no significant effect on germination indicators. Under suit-able condition,the seed sprouted since first day of germination bed treatment;germination rate was more than 90% on second day,and reached maximal value on fifth day and didn’t increase any longer. CONCLUSIONS:The suitable condition of seed ger-mination was soaking in 98% H2SO4 30 min+35 ℃ warm water for 29 h,on sand under light at 20 ℃. Initial count on second day of germination bed treatment and final count on forth day were analyzed statistically as well as germination rate. This method can be used as standard quality test of the seed of S. alopecuroides.

Objective: To clone the 5＇-flanking region of the human CD34 gene containing transcriptional regulatory sequence (TRS). Methods: According to the registered 5＇-flanking region of CD34 gene, two pairs of primers were designed and net-PCR was used to amplify 661 bp long TRS of CD34 gene. The CD34 TRS fragment was cloned into reported plasmid pEGFP-1. The role of the regulating the specific expression of recombinant plasmid pCD34 EGFP in hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells was observed. Results: Restrictive endonuclease identification and DNA sequencing provedthat the CD34 promoter cloned was consistent with the sequence reported to a large extent. It could induce the EGFP gene to express in hematopoietic cell line K562 specifically, while has no effect on hepatocellular carcinoma cell HepG-2. Conclusion: The cloned CD34 gene TRS has the effect of regulating gene expression specifically. The study established the fundament for the construction of specific gene expression vector used in hematopoietic system cells.

Objective To observe the clinical effect and safety of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cell(UCB-MSC) transplantation in the treatment of diabetic foot. Methods UCB-MSC suspension (cell concentration (3 -7) × 107/L,0.3 -0.5 ml per point) was injected into multiple spots on affected lower limb with a 3 cm × 3 cm istance among each point. Demixing injection could be performed in regions with multilayer muscles. Clinical symptoms and related index were routinely observed from the first day to three months after operation. Results After three months of UCB-MSC transplantation, pain of patients was relieved, skin temperature increased, intermittent claudication ameliorated, ulcer healed, ankle-brachial index and transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen increased. The lower extremity lesions showed an abundant collateral vessel formation after the treatment in 2 patients by angiography. Both patients had no severe complications and adverse reactions, none underwent amputation. Conclusions Umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cell transplantation is a safe and effective treatment of diabetic lower limb ischemic disease, which can exempt the patient from amputation and improve their quality of life.
