Objective To research on the proliferation and differentiation in vitro of primordial germ cells. Methods We got plenty of primordial germ cells(PGCs) by co-culture of PGCs with sertoli cells(SCs).The primary cells formed embryoid bodies(EBs) by suspension culture.furthermore,these EBs were plated on gelatin-coated culture plates for spontaneous differentiation. Results We got plenty of PGCs by coculture.Primary PGCs and passaged PGCs for histochemistry staining with AKP and immunohistochemistry staining for SSEA-1 display positive character.The EBs by suspension culture differentiated into epithelial-like,fibroblast-like and neuronal-like cells in vitro. Conclusion Primordial germ cells can proliferate and keep the character of stem cells by co-culture with SCs.PGCs can form EBs by suspension culture,most of these EBs can differentiate into neuronal-like cells,they also can differentiate into epithelial-like and fibroblast-like cells in vitro.

Objective To measure and compare sevoflurane minimum alveolar concentration (MAC)in newborn and adult rats.Methods The rats were divided into newborn rat (6-8 days) group (25 cases)and adult rat (8-10 weeks)group (25 cases).All rats were settled in the self-made device for anesthesia with inhaled sevoflurane,and the tails of rats were exposed out of the device. Sevoflurane was given via an anesthesia machine.Up-and-down method and clamping tail stimulus were applied to measure the MAC values of sevoflurane in the two groups.1.5% of sevoflurane was set as the initial concentration,and± 0.2% as adjustable gradient.A positive or negative response was judged by clamping tail stimulus in a 20 minutes interval.The mean MAC value of all rats in each group was defined as the MAC value.Results The MAC value of newborn rats was (2.58 ± 0.1 1)%,and the MAC value of adult rats was (2.32 ±0.13)%.A significant difference was found between the two groups (P <0.01).Conclusion The MAC value of newborn rats was much higher than that of adult rats.Newborn rats need a higher concentration of sevoflurane at the same depth of anesthesia when compared with adult rats.
