Tunneling nanotubes(TNT) are cellular communication and transport mechanism discovered recently. TNTs play important role in immunological response and viral spread, also may involve embryonic development, regulation of gene expression and carcinogenesis. However, it was not easy to study TNT for clinical samples since intricate assay method for TNT. We suggested using histochemical assay PAS staining in cell drip to show TNT in leukemia and lymphoma samples.

OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of low-molecular-weight-heparin-sodium combined with dy-drogesterone in the treatment of threatened abortion. METHODS:Medical information of 72 patients with threatened abortion were analyzed retrospectively and divided into control group(36 cases)and observation group(36 cases). Control group was given Dy-drogesterone tablet with initial dose of 40 mg,one day later every 12 h 10 mg/time. Observation group was additionally given ab-dominal subcutaneous injection of Low-molecular-weight-heparin-sodium injection 5000 U,once a day,on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for a week. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed,and lumbar acid,vaginal bleeding,ab-dominal pain time,total treatment time,neonatal birth weight were also observed. The levels of hs-CRP,fibrinogen,D-dimer and platelet,the occurrence of ADR were observed before and after treatment. RESULTS:The total response rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group(91.7%vs. 80.6%),the backache,vaginal bleeding,abdominal pain time and to-tal treatment time of observation group were significantly shorter than those of control group,the neonatal birth weight and gesta-tional age of observation group were significantly more than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the levels of hs-CRP,fibrinogen,D-dimer and platelet between 2 group(P>0.05);after treatment,the levels of hs-CRP,fibrinogen,D-dimer and platelet in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Based on routine treatment,low-molecu-lar-weight-heparin-sodium combined with dydrogesterone shows good therapeutic efficacy and safety for threatened abortion.

Cell death as the partner of cell proliferation is one of the basic mechanism in cell biology. Recently, it became obscure since more and more patterns of cell death were reported. However, the classification of cell death, which was recommended by the Nomenclature Committee on Cell Death (NCCD) in 2009, clarified the criteria. The theme of the recommendation and recent data from the literature were discussed in this review. The significance of studies on cell death was discussed.
