BACKGROUND: The establishment of amniotic fluid derived stem cells (AFS) can provide an individual reserve for cell therapy in nerve degenerative diseases.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Noggin and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on AFS differentiation into neural cells.METHODS: Samples of amniotic fluid were obtained through amniocentesis by ultrasound from gestational age of 16-22 weeks for routine prenatal diagnosis. AFS were obtained from the 2~(nd) trimester amniotic fluid samples by immunomagnetic beads selection using CD117 antibody, and identified the surface antigen expression by flow cytometry after amplification. The 3~(rd) generation of AFS with good growth state were induced to differentiate into nerve cells, which were divided into the blank control,based-induced, Noggin-induced and bFGF-induced groups. The induced cell morphology was observed under inverted phase contrast microscopy, and the expression of nestin, β-Ⅲ tubulin and neurofilament in the induced cells was measured by using cell immunofluorescence detection.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Flow cytometry analysis indicated that most of AFS cells expressed CD44 and HLA-ABC, but negative for CD45 and HLA-DR. At 2 weeks after induction, the cell morphology exhibited significant changes with increased Nestin,β-Ⅲ tubulin and NF-positive rates in the bFGF-induced group. However, it had no significant difference in the Noggin-induced group and the based-induced group. It revealed that bFGF plays a vital role in the AFS differentiated into nerve cells.

OBJECTIVES:
Liver transplant recipients have a high rate of postoperative infection, and identification of patients at high risk for bacterial and fungal infections will help prevent disease and improve long-term outcomes for them. This study aims to understand the composition, distribution, prognosis of bacterial and fungal infections within 2 months after liver transplantation and to analyze their risk factors.
METHODS:
The data of pathogen composition, distribution, and prognosis of bacterial and fungal infections among liver transplant recipients in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from May 2020 to October 2021 were collected, and the risk factors for these infections were analyzed.
RESULTS:
A total of 106 episodes of bacterial or fungal infections occurred in 71.4% of liver transplant recipients (75/105). Gram-negative bacteria were the dominant pathogenic bacteria (49/106, 46.2%), followed by Gram-positive bacteria (31/106, 29.2%). The most common Gram-negative bacterium was Acinetobacter baumannii (13/106, 12.3%). The most common Gram-positive bacterium was Enterococcus faecium (20/106, 18.9%). The most common infections were pulmonary (38/105, 36.2%) and multiple site infections (30/105, 28.6%). Six (6/105, 5.7%) patients with infections died within 2 months after liver transplantation. Univariate analysis showed that the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score ≥25, antibiotic use within half a month before transplantation, infections within 2 months prior to transplantation, intraoperative red blood cell infusion≥8 U, indwelling urinary tract catheter ≥4 days after transplantation, and the dosage of basiliximab use ≥40 mg were associated with infections. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that only infections within 2 months prior to transplantation (OR=5.172, 95% CI 1.905-14.039, P<0.01) was an independent risk factor for bacterial and fungal infections after liver transplantation. Postoperative bacterial and fungal infections were reduced in liver transplant recipients receiving basiliximab ≥40 mg (OR=0.197, 95% CI: 0.051-0.762, P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The incidence of bacterial and fungal infections is high in the early stage after liver transplantation, and the mortality after infection is significantly higher than that of non-infected patients. The most common infection is respiratory infection, and the dominant pathogens is Gram-negative bacteria. Patients infected within 2 months prior to liver transplantation are prone to bacterial and fungal infections. Standard use of basiliximab can reduce the incidence of infections after liver transplantation.

OBJECTIVES:
Gram-positive cocci is the main pathogen responsible for early infection after liver transplantation (LT), posing a huge threat to the prognosis of liver transplant recipients. This study aims to analyze the distribution and drug resistance of Gram-positive cocci, the risk factors for infections and efficacy of antibiotics within 2 months after LT, and to guide the prevention and treatment of these infections.
METHODS:
In this study, data of pathogenic bacteria distribution, drug resistance and therapeutic efficacy were collected from 39 Gram-positive cocci infections among 256 patients who received liver transplantation from donation after citizens' death in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2019 to July 2022, and risk factors for Gram-positive cocci infection were analyzed.
RESULTS:
Enterococcus faecium was the dominant pathogenic bacteria (33/51, 64.7%), followed by Enterococcus faecalis (11/51, 21.6%). The most common sites of infection were abdominal cavity/biliary tract (13/256, 5.1%) and urinary tract (10/256, 3.9%). Fifty (98%) of the 51 Gram-positive cocci infections occurred within 1 month after LT. The most sensitive drugs to Gram-positive cocci were teicoplanin, tigecycline, linezolid and vancomycin. Vancomycin was not used in all patients, considering its nephrotoxicity. Vancomycin was not administered to all patients in view of its nephrotoxicity.There was no significant difference between the efficacy of daptomycin and teicoplanin in the prevention of cocci infection (P>0.05). Univariate analysis indicated that preoperative Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score >25 (P=0.005), intraoperative red blood cell infusion ≥12 U (P=0.013) and exposure to more than 2 intravenous antibiotics post-LT (P=0.003) were related to Gram-positive cocci infections. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that preoperative MELD score >25 (OR=2.378, 95% CI 1.124 to 5.032, P=0.024) and intraoperative red blood cell transfusion ≥ 12 U (OR=2.757, 95% CI 1.227 to 6.195, P=0.014) were independent risk factors for Gram-positive cocci infections after LT. Postoperative Gram-positive cocci infections were reduced in LT recipients exposing to more than two intravenous antibiotics post-LT (OR=0.269, 95% CI 0.121 to 0.598, P=0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Gram-positive cocci infections occurring early after liver transplantation were dominated by Enterococcus faecalis infections at the abdominal/biliary tract and urinary tract. Teicoplanin, tigecycline and linezolid were anti-cocci sensitive drugs. Daptomycin and teicoplanin were equally effective in preventing cocci infections due to Gram-positive cocci. Patients with high preoperative MELD score and massive intraoperative red blood cell transfusion were more likely to suffer Gram-positive cocci infection after surgery. Postoperative Gram-positive cocci infections were reduced in recipients exposing to more than two intravenous antibiotics post-LT.
