Objective To explore whether Helq deletion affect the pluripotency of stem cells. Methods Helq knockout embryonic stem cells were obtained by CRISPR?Cas9 gene editing technique. Results The results of immunoflu?orescence analysis showed that the expression of Oct4 and Nanog had no obvious difference to that of the control cells. The Helq-/ - embryonic stem cells could produce viable pups by tetraploid complementation, indicating that their pluripotency was not affected. Meanwhile, we found that day 2 epiblast?like cells also were obtained through differentiation of the Helq-/ - embryonic stem cells in vitro. Immunostaining and real?time PCR analysis showed that the gene expression of Helq-/ - epiblast cells were similar to the wild type cells. Conclusions Taken together, it is proved that the genomic in?stability caused by Helq deletion does not affect the pluripotency of pluripotent stem cells.

Objective To analyze the sensitivity and specificity of several volume parameters regarding volume responsiveness.The studied volume parameters include pulmonary artery obstruc-tion pressure (PAOP),central venous pressure (CVP),right ventricular end-diastolic volume (RV-EDV)measured by Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheter and left ventricular end-diastolic area (LVEDA),inferior vena cava diameter (IVC)measured by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Methods Twelve patients with ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ,scheduled for coronary artery bypass grafting were studied.After anesthesia induction,the TEE probe was put into the esophagus and Swan-Ganz cathe-ter was placed in right internal jugular venous.Measurements were made at the time before cutting the skin (T0 ),20 min after divorcing from cardiopulmonary bypass or finishing vascular anastomosis in off-pump surgery(T1 ),10 min after rapid infusion (T2 )and 30 min after rapid infusion (T3 ),re-spectively.Results The values of PAOP,IVC,LVEDA,COLVOT at time T2 increased significantly compared to those at time T1 (P <0.01).No obvious correlation (r=-0.298 5、r=-0.091 8、r=-0.243 6)was observed between △CVP、△PAOP、△RVEDV and △COLVOT (the difference between T2 and T1 );Meanwhile,△IVC and △LVEDA were well correlated to △COLVOT (r= 0.445 0、r=0.612 0).Using more than 1 5% change of COLVOT after volume expansion as definition of positive re-sponse,the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves of CVP,PAOP,RVEDV,IVC and LVEDA were 0.389 (95% CI 0.035-0.743 ),0.458 (95% CI 0.109-0.807 ),0.333 (95% CI 0-0.671 ), 0.903 (95% CI 0.701-1.000 ) and 0.889 (95% CI 0.661-1.000 ), respectively. Conclusion PAOP,IVC,LVEDA,CO are more sensitive to the change of volume;while CVP and RVEDV have weak responses to volume changes.This indicates that IVC and RVEDA have more ad-vantage to estimate cardiac output increase and guide volume therapy.
