Objective To investigate the influence of endothelial progenitor cells on the proliferation and differenti-ation of neural stem cells in vitro under the condition of co-culture. Methods We used the mature methods of iso-lation, culture and identification on cells to get the spinal cord NSCs and peripheral blood EPCs from the SD rats, and then put them together in the Transwell chamber in vitro. Set the untreated NSCs as a control group. On the 4th day, we calculated the number and diameter of neurospheres. After that, removing the insert of transwell with EPCs, and inducing the NSCs to differentiate. On the 7th day, we conducted MAP-2 immunofluorescence staining on the cells of induced-differentiation group with fluorescence microscopy, then observed the expression of the anti-gen and calculated the percentage of the differential neurons in the NSCs. All the data were analyzed using statisti-cal method. Results The average number of neurosphere in co-culture group was 10.3±2.2,it was significantly more than that in the control group, and the diameter was under the same situation,the average diameter was up to (49.0±5.3)μm. The percentage of the cells which differentiated into neurons in the co-culture group was signifi-cantly higher than that in the control group, the percentage was(32.1±1.8)%. Conclusion EPCs promote the proliferation of NSCs and induce the differentiation of NSCs into neurons in vitro.

Objective To analyze retrospectively the MR features of MELAS patients,in order to improve the early diagnosis of MELAS.Methods MR data of 1 6 MELAS patients confirmed by clinical diagnose and muscle biopsy were retrospectively analyzed. MR features of plain scan(n=1 6),ASL(n=3),MRA(n=1 5),DWI(n=14)and MRS(n=3)were analyzed.Results MRI data demonstrated brain lesions mainly distributed in posterior cerebral hemisphere extending to subcortical area,which was not consistent with the vascular supply territories.The lesions were observed as low signal on Spin-echo sequence of T1 WI,while high signal on T2 WI, FLAIR and DWI.The focal lesions showed increasing Lac peak on MRS.Fifteen of 16 patients underwent MRA and one showed increased arterial branches in lesion zones.Three patients had ASL scanning demonstrating high irrigation in lesion zones which would wander once relapsed.Meanwhile,old lesions showed encephalatrophy and cerebromalacia.All patients’muscle biopsy pathology showed ragged red muscle fibers.Under electron-microscopic,bioblasts were bigger and more than average level and muscle fibers atrophied.Mitochondrial DNA sequence of 3 patients showed mtDNA A3243G transgenation.Conclusion The DWI,MRS and ASL sequences show good ability in MELAS diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Objective To detect the changes of the brain white matter microstructure at the acute stage of posttraumatic stress disorder(PTSD)resulting from a single,extreme and long-lasting trauma.Methods DTI scans were performed on 1 7 survivors of coal mine disaster(PTSD group)and 1 7 cases of normal control(control group).The differences of the mean diffusivity(MD)values measured from the whole brain DTI between the two groups were analyzed based on tract based spatial statistics (TBSS).MD data were statistically compared between the two groups based on nonparametric random permutation test(RPT),and the brain areas of significant differences between the two groups were obtained.Results Compared with the control group,MD values were increased in the bilateral rostral corpus callosum body and left precorona radiata,and decreased in the bilateral superior and posterior corona ra-diate,posterior limb of the left internal capsule,left cerebral peduncle and left thalamic.The differences were statistically significant (P <0.01 TFCE-corrected).Conclusion TBSS is a comprehensive and accurate method for evaluate the changes of brain white mat-ter in PTSD cases.TBSS can provide an objective basis of the pathological brain neural structures imaging for early diagnosis and in-tervention of PTSD.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between perioperative new onset atrial fibrillation and the prognosis of colorectal cancer.Methods:This study involved 180 colorectal cancer patients undgoing radical resection at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Longyan First Hospital from Jan 2014 to Jan 2015. Among them, 47cases suffered from perioperative new onset atrial fibrillation.Results:The perioperative new onset atrial fibrillation group had a higher mean age and a higher mean postoperative C-reactive protein level than the control group ( t=-3.080, P=0.002; t=-2.184, P=0.030). Hence these patients had a longer hospital stay ( t=-5.072, P=0.001; t=-2.577, P=0.011). Multivariate analysis showed that postoperative new onset atrial fibrillation, high postoperative mean C-reactive protein level, poor tumor differenciation and late tumor stage were independent risk factors for the prognosis of colorectal cancer ( HR=1.835, P=0.018; HR=1.008 P=0.017; HR=1.950 P=0.046; HR=1.300, P=0.047). The median survival time of perioperative new onset atrial fibrillation group and control group were 59.05 months and 63.23 months, respectively ( P=0.005). Conclusions:Colorectal cancer patients suffering from perioperative new onset atrial fibrillation were more common among advanced age and high postoperative mean C-reactive protein level with higher all-cause mortality.

Aromatic compounds make up a large part of fragrances and are traditionally produced by chemical synthesis and direct extraction from plants. Chemical synthesis depends on petroleum resources and has disadvantages such as causing environment pollutions and harsh reaction conditions. Due to the low content of aromatic compounds in plants and the low yield of direct extraction, plant extractions require large amounts of plant resources that occupy arable land. In recent years, with the development of metabolic engineering and synthetic biology, microbial synthesis of aromatic compounds from renewable resources has become a promising alternative approach to traditional methods. This review describes the research progress on the synthesis of aromatic fragrances by model microorganisms such as Escherichia coli or yeast, including the synthesis of vanillin through shikimic acid pathway and the synthesis of raspberry ketone through polyketide pathway. Moreover, this review highlights the elucidation of native biosynthesis pathways, the construction of synthetic pathways and metabolic regulation for the production of aromatic fragrances by microbial fermentation.

Objective To investigate the morphological typing and clinical significance of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis fibular notch based on CT images. Methods According to the inclusion and exclusion ceiteria‚ the imaging data of patients undergoing ankle joint CT examination were analyzed‚ and the inferior tibiofibular joint fibula notch was classified according to the morphological characteristics. The measurements included 8 distances. There were 123 males and 102 females‚ all of whom were Han nationality‚ aged 18-60 years old. Results Retrospectively analyzed the result of 225 patients from December 2013 to December 2022. The distal tibiofibular syndesmosis fibular notch was divided into four types according to morphological characteristics‚ C-shaped (50. 67%)‚ V-shaped (26. 67%)‚ flat-shaped (15. 11%) and L-shaped (7. 56%). The angle between the anterior and posterior facets of the flat shape (145. 56 ± 9. 25)° was the largest and the angle between the anterior and posterior facets of the L shape (125. 07 ± 13. 54)° was the smallest(P< 0. 05); the depth of the notch in the flat shape (3. 11 ± 0. 83) mm was the smallest and in the L shape (4. 47±1. 11) mm was the largest(P<0. 05);The posterior facet length (13. 06 ± 3. 56) mm and anterior tibiofibular gap (3. 83±1. 49) mm on left were larger than on the right side (P<0. 05); The posterior facet length (13. 36 ± 3. 46) mm‚ fibular notch depth (3. 93 ± 1. 10) mm and vertical distance of tibiofibular overlap (9. 10 ± 2. 55) mm larger in men than in women (P<0. 05). Conclusion In this study‚ the data related to the inferior tibiofibular syndesmosis notch were measured and divided into four types according to the shape. The flat inferior tibiofibular syndesmosis notch is more likely to have chronic ankle instability‚ and the fibula is more likely to move forward during anatomical reduction. The inferior tibiofibular syndesmosis of L-shaped and C-shaped notches is more prone to posterior displacement of fibula or poor rotation reduction during anatomical reduction.
