Purpose To study immunohistochemical quality of prostatic basal cell(PBC). MethodsTherty-seven of basal cell of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) were studied using routine HE stavningand En Vision immunohistochemical methods. Results The positive rate of 34βE12 in PBC were 100 %;but all of the PBC were negative with Vim and SMA; the positive expression of PsAP PSA in PBC were35% ;expression of ck in the PBC was 71% and the positive rate of S-100 in PBC was onty 13.5%.Conclusions The resuts suggest that high molecular weight keratin 34βE12 is a specific marker to PBC;PBC has ability to adenoid epithelia differentiation of prostate and hyperplasia itself. PBC play an importantrole in growth, hyperplasia and disease of prostate. The PBC unlike myoepithelia, the ability to myoepitheliadifferentiation is to go a step further controversial opinion.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are a group of pluripotential non-hematopoietic somatic stem cells niched in bone marrow.With the characteristics of stable genetic traits,pluripotential in differentiation,easy to isolate from source tissue,and fast to proliferate when cultured in vitro,BMSCs are currently attracting extensive research interests,and considered to be one of the most promising candidates in corneal tissue engineering.At present,many research groups,domestic and abroad,have reported that BMSCs can not only differentiate into corneal limbal stem cells,corneal epithelial cells,and corneal endothelial cells,but also play an important role in ocular surface repair.However,the successful application of BMSCs in cornea usually depends on the correct selection of supporting materials or scaffold,such as xenogeneic corneal stroma and amniotic membrane.Other unsolved problems in BMSCs-related corneal tissue engineering include the molecular biologic mechanism underlying the directional differentiation from BMSCs to corneal cells,the standards to identify BMSCs from differentiated corneal cells,the optimal scaffold materials and the potential tumorigenicity with grafting of transformed or undifferentiated BMSCs.This paper reviewed the progresses and issues of corneal tissue engineering with BMSCs.

Small cell lung cancer, most malignant and highly aggressive has a high relapse rate due to drug resistance. Potential strategies as high dose chemotherapy with autologous bone marrow transplantation and analysis on genes of metastases are focused on. In spite of great improvement, methods and clinic significances of bone marrow micrometastases are still to be determinated. Bone micrometastases may be a resort to clarify the mechanism of metastases.

Objective: To introduce a "Four-step method" for extraction and separation of Candida albicans total proteins. Methods: Proteins of C. albicans were extracted step-by-step with 4 kinds of solutions with different solubilities. After quantification, the protein samples were separated by isoelectric focusing electrophoresis and then by SDS-PAGE. Results: Proteins with different solubilities were successfully extracted step-by-step from C. albicans and were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Conclusion: The "Four-step method" for extraction of C. albicans proteins is an effective approach to study C. albicans membrane proteome and lays a foundation for further investigation of the mechanisms of antifungal agents and drug resistance in C. albicans.

AIM: To observe the effects of Yangxue qingnao-containing serum on rat vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation induced by lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). METHODS: The [ 3H]-TdR incorporation and mitogen-activated protein kinasc (MAPK) activity were measured in cultured VSMC. End product of lipid peroxidation-MDA levels were also detected. RESULTS: 1?10 -9 ,1?10 -8 and 1?10 -7 mol/L LPA enhanced the cultured VSMC [ 3H]-TdR incorporation, increased MAPK activity and MDA content in a concentration-dependent manner. 5%, 10% and 15% Yangxue qingnao-containing serum concentration-dependently inhibited the increase in VSMC [ 3H]-TdR incorporation, MAPK activity and MDA content induced by LPA. CONCLUSIONS: LPA has a stimulating effect on VSMC proliferation. The LPA-induced intracellular signal transduction may be related to MAPK activity. Yangxue qingnao can efficiently inhibit LPA -induced VSMC proliferation,MAPK activity and lipid peroxidation. [
