Tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) is a group of heterogeneous cells and a major component of inflammatory cells in the tumor microenvironment. Parts of these cells in gliomas are derived from central nervous system microglia and circulating monocytes, and have been implicated in angiogenesis, immunosuppression, tumor progression and invasion of gliomas. This article reviews the potential mechanisms of TAM promoting glioma development through various pathways to provide new possibilities for targeted therapy of gliomas.

Objective To study the incidence of complications of visceral and vascular injury in laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic diseases,and to discuss the ways to decrease the incidence. Methods The data of 2684 patients who received laparoscopic surgery from Januray 2003 to December 2005 in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology were reviewed retrospectively.The incidence and treatment of complications of visceral and vascular injury were observed. Results The total incidence rate of complications was 2.53%(n=68),and that of the visceral and vascular injury was 0.37%(n=10).Four cases of injury were related with trocar punctures(injury of omental blood vessel,n=2;postperitoneal vessel,n=2),three took place during the operation (severe bleeding,n=1;bladder injury,n=2),and the other three were observed in the postoperative stage(ureter injury,n=2;intestinal fistula,n=1). Conclusion The complications in laparoscopic surgery for gynecologic diseases are increased with the extension and difficulty of operation,and are closely related with the experience of the surgeons.Proper candidates for the surgery and established operative technique are the key factors in decreasing the incidence.

AIM: To investigate the effect of diazoxide (D) postconditioning on Cardiac function and mito-chondrial cardiolipin in isolated rat heart and to explore the protective effect of ATP sensitive potassium channel on diazo-xide postconditioning myocardium.METHODS: The myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury model in isolated rat hearts was established by Langendorff apparatus.The isolated rat hearts were randomized into 4 groups ( n=8): control group ( control) , myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury group ( I/R) , diazoxide postconditioning group ( I/R+D) , 5-hydroxy decanoic acid (5-HD) plus diazoxide postconditioning group (I/R+5-HD+D).The hearts in each group were started with 20 min perfusion for equilibration.The hearts in control group perfused for 70 min;The hearts in I/R group was global ischemia for 40 min after ischemia reperfusion at 4℃ST.Thomas cardioplegia, then reperfusion for 30 min;The hearts in I/R+D group were treated with diazoxide (50μmol/L) in K-H perfusion for 5 min after global ischemia for 40 min, then reperfusion for 25 min;The hearts in I/R+5-HD+D group were treated with 5-HD (100μmol/L) in K-H perfusion for 5 min before diazoxide postconditioning, then reperfusion for 20 min.The heart rate, coronary outflow volume, heart func-tion, myocardial enzymes and myocardial mitochondrial cardiolipin at the end of perfusion in each group were determined. RESULTS:Compared with control group and I/R+D group, the heart rate, the concentration of heart phospholipid and the coronary outflow volume were reduced, the heart function was significantly impaired the contents of myocardial enzymes were increased in I/R group.However, no significant difference between I/R group and I/R+5-HD+D group was ob-served.CONCLUSION:The diazoxide postconditioning protects the myocardium by increasing mitochondrial cardiolipin content, reducing the release of myocardial enzymes, improving heart function and reducing myocardial reperfusion injury. The myocardial protective effect of diazoxide is completely blocked by 5-hydroxy decanoic acid.

Objective To compare the effects of dexmedetomidine and propofol on intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats.Methods Forty male SPF Wistar rats, aged 2-3 months, weighing 185-230 g, were randomized into 4 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table: sham operation group (S group), intestinal I/R group (I/R group), propofol group (P group) and dexmedetomidine group (D group).Intestinal I/R was produced by occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery for 20 min followed by reperfusion.In P and D groups, propofol 10 mg/kg and dexmedetomidine 5 μg/kg were injected, respectively, via the femoral vein at 20 min before occlusion.At the end of 2 h reperfusion, the blood samples were collected from the inferior vena cava for determination of serum diamine oxidase (DAO) activity.A segment of the intestine of 5 cm in length was removed for microscopic examination with light microscope.The degree of damage to intestinal mucous membrane was scored according to Chiu.Results Compared to S group, the activity of DAO and Chiu' s score were significantly increased in I/R, P and D groups.Compared to I/R group, the activity of DAO and Chiu' s score were significantly decreased in P and D groups.Compared to P group, the activity of DAO and Chiu' s score were significantly decreased in group D.Conclusion Anesthetic dose of dexmedetomidine pretreatment reduces intestinal I/R injury in rats, and the effect is superior to that produced by propofol.

BACKGROUND:In the repair of urinary tract defects, we have been actively trying to construct the urinary tract substitutes with normal physiological function through combining ideal seed cel s and proper scaffold materials by tissue engineering method. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the biocompatibility of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s with rabbit bladder acel ular matrix scaffold. METHODS:Rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were isolated and cultured using density gradient centrifugation method. Passage 3 rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were cultured on the rabbit bladder acel ular matrix. The cel s were counted every day for 12 days, to drawn a cel growth curve. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s cultured alone were used as control group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were successful y seeded onto the bladder acel ular matrix. Under the inverted microscope, the cel s grew out of the bladder acel ular matrix, and a great amount of long spindle-shaped cel s were found around the bladder acel ular matrix. With 5 days of inoculation, the cel s in the two groups grew gently;at 6-9 days, the cel growth curve gradual y became steeper, and the cel division and growth were increased exponential y;at 10-12 days, the cel s recovered to a gentle state. Cel growth curves in the two groups were basical y coincident, suggesting that rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s have good biocompatibility with the bladder matrix.
