Objective:To investigate clinical value of the blood analyzer reticulocyte parameter in the diagnosis of anemia.Methods: 271 cases of anemia patients were divided into iron deficiency anemia(126 cases) and hemorrhagic anemia group(145 cases), namely the observation group; and other 50 healthy physical examinees were selected as the control group. SysmexXE-5000 automatic blood analyzer were used to detect the reticulocyte parameters, including reticulocytes(RET) ratio, high fluorescence reticulocytes(HFR) ratio of middle fluorescence reticulocytes(MFR) ratio and the immature reticulocytes(IRF) ratio.Results: Compared with the control group, the RET, HFR, MFR and IRF were significantly higher in the observation group. The sensitivity of iron deficiency anemia and blood loss anemia was 96.2% and 63.5%; the specificity of anemia was 96.0%.Conclusion: Detection of reticulocyte parameters can reflect the marrow hyperplasia patients with anemia. It has a high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of various types of anemia, which has a high practical value in clinic.

BACKGROUND:Neural stem cel s with self-proliferation and differentiation potential are the ideal seed cel s for central nervous tissue engineering. Although col agen and silk fibroin as biological scaffold materials have been widely used, both of them used alone have certain shortcomings. Is it possible to combine the two materials to build a novel neural tissue-engineered scaffold? What is the effect of this novel scaffold on the growth and differentiation of neural stem cel s? OBJECTIVE:To observe the growth and differentiation of neural stem cel s seeded onto the novel composite scaffold. METHODS:The rat embryonic neural stem cells were inoculated onto new composite scaffolds, and then, their growth and differentiation were observed by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Neural stem cells were cultured in conventional suspension culture as control group. Cell counting kit-8 assay was used to detect viability of neural stem cells in the two groups. Three-dimensional composite scaffolds carrying neural stem cells were slic ed into paraffin sections to observe the growth and differentiation of neural stem cells by hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Neural stem cel s cultured on the new composite scaffold grew and differentiated wel , and interconnected synapses were observed. Cel counting kit-8 assay showed that neural stem cel s on the scaffold grew wel , and the cel viability was significantly higher in the composite scaffold group than that in the control group (P<0.05). Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunofluorescence staining of paraffin sections further provided evidence for good growth and differentiation of neural stem cel s on the scaffold. These results indicate that the novel composite scaffold with good biocompatibility benefits the growth and differentiation of neural stem cel s, promising a favorable application prospect.

BACKGROUND:Col agen and silk fibroin materials for construction of spinal cord scaffolds have been proven to repair or partial y repair damaged spinal cord nerve function. OBJECTIVE:To introduce partial characteristics of the col agen and silk fibroin and to review the recent progress and application as scaffolds in spinal cord tissue engineering. METHODS:A computer-based search of CNKI and PubMed databases (2003-01/2012-10) was performed for articles addressing the application of col agen and silk fibroin scaffolds in spinal cord injury with the keywords of“col agen, silk fibroin, scaffold, spinal cord injury”in Chinese and English, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Col agen has low antigenicity, good biocompatibility and biodegradability. Col agen and its degradation products can cause no inflammatory reactions in the body, but have the disadvantages of rapid degradation and poor mechanical properties. Silk fibroin has good biocompatibility and excellent mechanical properties, but its degradation is slow. The col agen and silk fibroin are compounded using an electrostatic spinning technology to improve the physical properties of the material on the basis of maintaining good biocompatibility. At present, fibroin or col agen materials in terms of nervous system repair have been studied, laying some foundation for spinal cord tissue engineering. Considering the similar characteristics and mechanics performance to the spinal cord tissue, col agen/silk fibroin composite materials are expected to become the ideal scaffold materials for spinal cord tissue engineering.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of leptin receptor (OBR) and phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (p-STAT3) in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods Immunohistochemical analysis was used to detect the expression of OBR and p-STAT3 in 80 patients with DLBCL and 10 patients with reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (RLH).Using a panel of immunohistochemical markers (CD10,bcl-6 and Mum-1),all cases of DLBCL were further divided into two groups,GCB (germinal center B-cell-like) or non-GCB.Results Immunohistochemistry revealed high expression of OBR and p-STAT3 in 45.0 ％ (36/80) and 28.8 ％ (23/80) cases of DLBCL,respectively,and minimal straining in 100.0 ％ (10/10) cases of RLH (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with GCB group (8.7 ％,2/23),non-GCB group had higher p-STAT3 high expression rate (36.8 ％,21/57) (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the expression of OBR between these two groups.Compared with clinical stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ [46.2 ％ (18/39) and 25.6 ％ (10/39)],stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ had higher OBR and p-STAT3 high expression rate [61.9 ％ (13/21) and 38.1％ (8/21)] (P ＞ 0.05).The expression of OBR and p-STAT3 were not correlated with age,gender,extranodal infiltrations,LDH level,B-symptoms and IPI(international prognostic index)(P ＞ 0.05).The expression of OBR was positively related with that of p-STAT3 in DLBCL patients (r =0.232,P =0.039).Conclusion OBR could stimulate the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and induces the phosphorylation of STAT3.This may be involved in carcinogenesis and prognosis of DLBCL.

Purpose To investigate the expression of TET2 and DNMT3A in patients with peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) and the relationship to immunophenotypes of PTCL.Methods Using a panel of immunohistochemical markers (CD3,CD4,CD10,BCL-6,CXCL-13,CD30,ALK),all cases of PTCLs were further divided into four groups,including angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL),peripheral T cell lymphoma,not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS),anaplastic lymphoma kinase negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALK-ALCL) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALK + ALCL).The expression of TET2 and DNMT3A in 89 cases of PTCL was detected by immunohistochemical analysis.Results 89 cases were divide into four subtypes,AITL (36/89),PTCL-NOS (26/89),ALKALCL (18/89),and ALK + ALCL (9/89).Immunohistochemistry staining revealed higher cytoplasmic expression of TET2 and DNMT3A in AITL than that of in PTCL-NOS and ALCL (P ＜ 0.05).And the nuclear expression of DNMT3A in patients with AITL was higher than that of PTCL-NOS and ALCL (P ＜ 0.05).The cytoplasmic expression of TET2 was positively related with both cytoplasmic and nuclear expression of DNMT3A in patients with AITL (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion TET2 combined with DNMT3A could be used as markers in AITL diagnosis,which could provide new strategy for AITL diagnosis.

OBJECTIVETo assess the clinical efficacy of the therapeutic schema for treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) with ligustrazine and citicoline injection in combination.

METHODSAdopting double-centered randomized controlled trial, 300 patients were randomly assigned to 3 groups, who were treated respectively by ligustrazine plus citicoline (group A), ligustrazine alone (group B) and citicoline alone (group C). Clinical efficacy, symptomatic integral (SI), electromyogram ( EMG), blood sugar and blood lipids were assessed 4 weeks after treatment, and the clinical efficacy and SI were assessed at the end of 3-month follow-up.

RESULTSAfter 4-week treatment, improvements of blood sugar and blood lipids were seen in all the three groups, showing insignificant difference among them (P > 0.05). But the clinical efficacy, improvement of SI and EMG in group A were superior to those in group B and C (P < 0.05), while the difference between group B and C was insignificant. No severe adverse reaction was found. Results at the end of 3-month follow-up showed that the clinical efficacy in group A was still better than in the other two groups, so did the SI (6.39 +/- 2.04 vs 8.36 +/- 1.17 and 8.05 +/- 1.34, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe therapeutic schema of using ligustrazine and citicoline in combination is effective and safe for improving DPN, and worthy of clinical spreading.
