Hypersensitivity reactions ( HSRs) are the serious problems of taxanes in the clinical appli- cation. These reactions range in severity from mild flushing and itching to bronchospasm, dyspnea and signifi-cant alterations in blood pressure with loss of consciousness or not, and death in some rare cases. Nevertheless, HSRs are often reported only sporadically in clinical trials or as case reports. The vague or inconsistent termi-nology used to describe these reactions may reflect our poor understanding of their pathophysiology. This article will reviews the advancement of taxanes HSRs.

Objective To evaluate the short-term clinical results of total hip arthroplasty(THA) through a direct anterior minimally invasive approach aided by lower extremity tractor for hip diseases.Methods Between August 2013 and August 2015,115 patients (138 hips) were admitted for hip diseases.They were 71 men and 44 women,aged from 28 to 77 years (average,59.4 years).Their body mass indexes ranged from 19.7 kg/m2 to 28.9 kg/m2,averaging 24.7 kg/m2.Their hip diseases included avascular necrosis of the femoral head in 56 cases (with an average disease course of 15.7 months),hip osteoarthritis in 35 cases (with an average disease course of 12.6 months),hip dysplasia in 14 cases (with an average disease course of 2.8 years) and inflammatory arthritis in 10 cases (with an average disease course of 6.8 years).All the patients were treated by primary THA through a direct anterior minimally invasive approach and assistance of lower extremity tractor.Results All the 115 patients (138 hips) were followed up for an average of 31.6 months (from 12 to 40 months).Their average length of incision was 9.4 cm,average operative time 115.9 min,average blood loss 210.2 mL,and average hospital stay 7.5 days.Their postoperative imaging results were as follows:the angles of acetabular abduction averaged 41.6° (from 37° to 56°) and the angles of acetabular anteversion 18.1° (from 11° to 23°).Their average Harris hip score one year postoperatively was 91.4 points (from 80 to 96 points).Split fracture of the proximal femur happened in one patient (one hip) (0.7％) intraoperatively;injury to lateral femoral cutaneous never was observed in 6 patients (7 hips) (5.1％).Complications like deep infection,hip dislocation,deep vein thrombosis or prosthetic loosening were not observed during follow-ups.Conclusions THA with assistance of lower extremity tractor through a direct anterior minimally invasive approach can lead to fine short-term clinical results,including quick recovery of hip function and decreased intraoperative and postoperative complications.

AIM:To construct human interleukin-18 receptor ?(IL-18R?) and interleukin-18 receptor ?(IL-18R?) eukaryotic expression vectors named pcDNA3.1-zeocin/IL-18R? and pcDNA3.0/IL-18R? respectively,and then stably transfect pcDNA3.0/IL-18R? into 293 cells in order to establish the cell line stably expressing IL-18R? and cell model which responds IL-18 signal transduction in vitro. METHODS:The experiment was performed at the laboratory of Department of Immunology,Peking University Health Science Center from June 2006 to May 2007. DNA encoding IL-18R? or IL-18R? was amplified and cloned into pcDNA3.1-zeocin or pcDNA3.0 vector,respectively. The recombinant of pcDNA3.0/IL-18R? was transfectd into 293 cells. After screening culture by G418,stable transfected cell line was established and the expression of IL-18R? was identified by Western-blot assay. The stable cell line with the combinant eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1-zeocin /IL-18R? to establish the IL-18 signaling pathway,which was detected by NF-?B-dependent Luciferase. RESULTS:The eukaryotic expression vectors of IL-18R? and IL-18R? were constructed successfully. The gene of IL-18R? stably expressed in 293 cells and cell model of IL-18 signaling transduction in vitro could be established in these stable 293 cell lines. CONCLUSION:The establishment of NF-?B-activated cell model in vitro which responds to IL-18 can provide solid foundation for further experimental studies on IL-18 signaling transduction pathway.

BACKGROUND:Recent studies have shown that icari n is a good bone-inducing factor that can promote the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cel s, providing a new hope for the treatment of bone defects. OBJECTIVE:To review research achievements in pharmacological effects of icari n effects on bone tissue metabolism as wel as its effect to promote osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cel s. METHODS:The first author retrieved CNKI and PubMed databases for relevant Chinese and English literatures using keywords of“icariin, stem cell, osteogenesis”, respectively. Articles regarding icariin, stem cells, osteogenesis were included, and repetitive studies were excluded. Totally 754 articles were retrieved initially. In accordance with inclusion and exclusion criteria, 41 articles were included in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:As the main ingredient of Herba epimedi , icari n functions as a good osteogenetic growth factor to promote the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s. In recent years, icari n has been shown to promote adipose-, umbilical cord-, and periodontal ligament tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cel s to differentiate into osteoblasts. But such studies are less reported. Until now, mesenchymal stem cel s stil exhibit unsatisfactory osteogenic ability in in vivo experiments. Given this, osteogenetic growth factors contribute to the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cel s. Therefore, the use of icari n is expected to provide a good strategy for bone defect repair.
