Background Development of corneal tissue engineering creates a new therapeutic method for severe corneal diseases.However,ideal seed cells and scaffold for corneal surface reconstruction have not yet been investigated well.Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are varified to have a self-renewal ability and epithelioid features,and temperature-responsive scaffolds (TRSs) can offer technical support for stem cell sheet.Objective This study was to investigate the characteristics of ADSCs cultured on TRSs and compare these features to typical oral mucosal epithelial cells (OMECs),and therefore to explore the feasibility of reconstruction of ocular surface with ADSCs as seed cells.Methods Self-made TRSs were prepared by adding isopropyl alcohol dissolved poly-Nisopropylacrylamide (PNIPAAm) to each polystyrene tissue culture dish and then irradiating using an election beam.Subcutaneious fatty tissue of rabbit neck was obtained to culture ADSCs,and 4 pieces of oral cavity mucosal tissue were digested and cultured to obtain OMECs.Then the ADSCs and OMECs were incubated on TRSs,and cell morphology,growth rate,detached duration and survival counts were compared between ADSCs and OMECs.The ADSCs sheet and OMECs sheet were stained with hematoxylin and eosin for morphological examination.Immunochemistry was used to observe the expressions of stem-cell biomakers and epithelioid-cell biomakers in the cells.The ultrastructure of cell surface was observed under the scanning electron microscope.Results Self-made TRSs were similar to ordinary culture dish in the transparancy and smoothness.The water contact angle of 4 in 5 samples were ＞10° with the effective rate upto 80％.A DSCs showed the elongated fusiform in shape,while OMECs showed a cobblestone appearance.The growth cycle,detached duration and cell number of ADSCs were 12-14 days,(46.0 ±9.6) minutes and (7.9 ±1.1)×105/sheet,and those of OMECs were 14-16 days,(91.9 ±10.9) minutes and (45.8 ±26.5)×105/sheet,respectively,showing statistically significant differences in the detached duration and cell counts between ADSCs and OMECs (P=0.002,0.028).Hematoxylin and eosin staining showed that ADSCs sheet comprised only 1-3 layer cells,while OMECs showed 4-5 layer cells.ATP-binding cassette superfamily G member 2 (ABCG2),p63 and cytokeratin 12 (CK12) were positively expressed in both ADSCs sheet and OMECs sheet.Closely packed cells and typical eithelial microvilli in the cell surface were exhibited in both ADSCs sheet and OMECs sheet under the scanning electron microscope.Conclusions Self-made TRSs can be used as scaffold of ADSCs.The ADSCs sheet on the TRSs appears to have a good cell vitality and therefore is a new seed source of ocular surface reconstruction.

Objective To investigate the expressions of metastasis suppressor 1 (MTSS1 )and calcium activated protein 43 (Cap43)in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC)tissue,and to clarify the relationship between the expressions of MTSS1,Cap43 and the clinicopathological features of ESCC.Methods 80 cases of ESCC tissue and 30 cases of normal adjacent-cancer tissue were collected,and the protein and mRNA expressions of MTSS1 and Cap43 in ESCC tissue and normal tissue were detected by streptavidin-perosidase (SP)immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR;their relationships with the clinicopathological features of ESCC were analyzed.Results The positive expression rate of MTSS1 in normal esophagus tissue was significantly higher than that in ESCC tissue detected by SP (83.3%vs 21.3%,P<0.01)and RT-PCR (0.703±0.085 vs 0.295±0.065,P<0.01),However,the positive expression rate of Cap43 in normal esophagus tissue was significantly lower than that in ESCC tissue by SP method (16.7%vs 76.3%,P<0.01)and by RT-PCR (0.236±0.052 vs 0.693±0.078,P<0.01).The mRNA expression levels of MTSS1 and Cap43 in ESCC tissue were significantly related with the invasive extent, histological differentiation,TNM stage,and lymphatic metastases (P<0.05)of ESCC,but not related with the age,sex,tumor size and pathological type (P>0.05). The mRNA expression of MTSS1 was negatively correlated with the expression of Cap43 (r=-0.457,P<0.05).Conclusion The low-expression of MTSS1 and over-expression of Cap43 in ESCC tissue may contribute to tumor invasion and metastasis;the imbalance of MTSS1 and Cap43 may be one of the mechanisms of tumor invasion and metastases.

Methods:Patients were divided into 3 groups randomly: treatment group (24 patients of MPE, injected to chest with DDP60mg and YDZ80mL once every week)、YDZ group (25 patients)、DDP group (23 patients), observing the effects、strength improvement and the side effects.Results: The toltal effective rates in the treatment group was 88.33% and YDZ group 56%、DDP group 56.52% respectively ( P

Objective To explore the effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on the neural function recovery and the expressions of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in rabbit spinal cord after ischemia-reperfusion injury. Methods 24 rabbits were randomized into 3 groups: EPO treatment group, ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) group and sham group with 8 rabbits in each group. The rabbit model of spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury was established with Tetik's method. The changes of neural functional recovery of rabbits of 3 groups were observed through Tarlov's scale at different time points post-operation. The expressions of NF-κB were tested with immunohistochemistry. Results The grade of nerve function improved distinctly in EPO treatment group (P<0.01).The expression of NF-κB in EPO group was lower than that of I/R group (P<0.01).Conclusion EPO can significantly improve the motor function of hind limbs in rabbits after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury, which might be related with inhibition of the expressions of NF-κB.

Objective To explore the correlation of the throid function and malnutrition in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD) patients.Methods Fifty-four MHD patients and 16 normal controls were enrolled as our subjects and named as MHD group and control group.Serum concentrations of total triiodothyronine (TT3),total thyroxine (TT4),free thyroine (FT4),free triiodothyronine (FT3),and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) were measured by enhanced chemiluminescence immunoassay.Their anthropometry,biochemical assays,malnutrition-inflammation score (MlS) and micro-inflammation parameters such as high sensitivity C-reactiveprotein(hs-CRP) were also measured.Results Serum T3,FT3,T4,FT4 concentration in MHD patients were (1.18 ±0.31) nmol/L,(2.61 ±0.62) pmol/L,(100.00 ± 19.96) nmol/L,(8.56 ±0.85) pmol/L respectively,lower than that of control group ((2.95 ± 0.27) nmol/L,(7.12 ± 0.94) pmol/L,(136.25 ± 19.68) nmol/L,(8.89 ± 0.56) pmol/L respectively,P ＜ 0.01).while there was no significant change on TSH (P =0.058).According to albumin nutrient grading standard:the morbidity of malnutrition was 75％ (39/54).The morbidity of malnutrition was 100％ based on the criteria of MIS.Of which,mild malnutrition rate was 29.63％ (16/54),moderate rate for 37.04％ (20/54) and sever rate for 33％ (18/54).The levels of serum creatinine,hemoglobin,serum iron,upper arm circumference,body mass index(BMI),deltoid skinfold,hs-CRP,T3,FT3,T4,FT4,TSH in MHD patients with mild,moderate and serve rate MIS were significant different(P ＜ 0.01).Of 54 MHD patients,32 cases were with micro inflammatory state,accounting for 59.26％ (32/54).There was a positive correlation between FT3 and albumin (P ＜0.01).T3 was related to serum creatinine(P ＜ 0.05).Thyroid function parameters showed a negative correlation with hs-CRP,MIS(P ＜ 0.01).And a negative correlation was seen between nutrition indices and hs-CRP and MIS (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Thyroid function can reflect the nutrition status of MHD patients to some degree,and both relate with miro-inflammation.Furthermore,MIS is a useful index for the estimation of malnutrition inflammation status.
