Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) possess an innate ability for self-renewal and can differentiate into multiple cell types.MSC have been used in cell-based therapy in various disease conditions including tumors.However,as MSC therapy gained popularity among practitioners and rescarchers,there have been reports on thre adverse effects of MSC especially in the context of tumor modulation and malignant transformation.Recent studies have shown that MSC also play an important role in the resistance to various anti-cancer drugs.This review provides an overview of the functional properties of MSC in cancer drug resistance.

Intracellular calcium is one of the crucial signalings that modulate various physiological and pathological processes.Abnormal calcium signaling is closely associated with invasion and migration of neoplasms.Calcium regulates focal adhesion turnover,cytoskeletal reorganization and other processes about tumor cell movement through contacting with multiple downstream proteins,such as calpain,PYK2 and S100 protein family.Several calcium entry channels including store-operated calcium channels and transient receptor potential channels participate in the invasion and migration of tumor cells.Pathological calcium signaling may be a potential target in anti-invasion and anti-migration therapy.

Objective:To investigate the anatomy of mandibular incisors using microcomputed tomography(Micro-CT).Methods:62 extracted mandibular incisors were selected from dental clinic and observed by Micro-CT.The anatomy of the teeth was analyzed. Results:83.9% of mandibular incisors had a single canal,72.6% had no accessory canal.The location of the apical foramen varied considerably.The mean distance from the root apex to the major lateral apical foramen was (0.613 ±0.298)mm.Of the canals the bucco-lingual diameter were greater than the mesio-distal diameters and the root bucco-lingual canal tapers were greater than the me-sio-distal.Conclusion:The morphology data of mandibular incisors were obtained using Micro-CT.

Invasive fungal infection is an important cause of mortality and morbidity in preterm infants.Extremely preterm and extremely low birth weight infants are at highest risk because of the intensive and invasive nature of the care that these infants receive.How to prevent and treat the invasive fungal infection in preterm infants has become a new hot spot in the neonatologists.This review focused the progress on treatment and prevention of invasive fungal infections in preterm infants.

Lysyal oxidase (LOX),a cooper dependent monoamine oxidase,can stabilize the extracellular matrix and is closely related to the tumor cell differentiation,vicious transformation and invasiveness.LOX is secreted into extracellular,and it is resolved into a small fragment by sol protease,which is lysyal oxidase propeptide (LOX-PP).According to research,LOX-PP has its own structure and physiological functions,which can inhibit the growth of tumor cells.LOX-PP also plays a significant role in the generation and progression of tumor,which is likely to be a new therapeutic target.

BACKGROUND: Resistin decreases insulin's action. Therefore might be a key molecule in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus in obese subjects.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation of resistin gone expression and insulin sensitivity index (ISI) in type 2 diabetic rat models, and to explore the effect of rosiglitazone on resistin gone expression in a rat diabetic model.DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal study.SETTING: Department of Geratology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zbengzhou University.MATERIALS: Thirty 2-month-old healthy female Wistar rats were provided by Animal Center of Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Common diets were provided by Animal Center of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and the gross calorific value was 14.88 J/g (mass fraction: 0.2protein, 0.61 carbohydrate, 0.17 fat); furthermore, high-fat diets were mixed with common diets, saccharobiose, rendered lard, egg, and mild powder, and the gross calorific value was 20.083 J/g (mass fraction: 0.09 protein, 0.51 carbohydrate, 0.38fat). Resistin and β -actin were synthesized in Beijing Salbaisheng Company.METHODS: This study was performed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2006 to October 2007. The experimental for animal manipulation conforms to criteria of the university's ethnic committee. Two weeks after adaptability, rats were randomly divided into normal chew group (n=8) and high-fat diet group (n=22). Rats in the high-fat diet group underwent vena caudalis injection with streptozotoein (25 mg/kg), and two days later they were continued fed with high-fat diet. For normal chew group rats were injected with sodium citrate-citrate buffer solution (1 mL/kg) and continued normal chew. After 12 weeks, 15 rats in the high-fat diet group were hyperglycemic and were randomly divided into rosiglitazone (n=8) and high-fat diet diabetic group (n=7). Rats were lavaged with rosiglitazone (2 mg/kg/d) in the rosiglitazone group and with distilled water (8 mL/kg/d) in high-fat diet diabetic group; for normal chew group rats were lavaged with the same volume of distilled water. Rats were studied for four successive weeks.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Fasting serum glucose was measured with glucose oxidase method; insulin by magnetic separation enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; triglyceride and total cholesterol levels by enzymic enzymatic method; ISI was calculated as [1/(fasting serum glucose × fasting insulin)]; resistin mRNA expression in greater omental adipose tissue was examined by RT-PCR; correlation between resistin gene and ISI analyzed by Spearman correlation and multivariate stepwise regression.RESULTS: Fifteen high-fat diet rats and eight normal chew rats were included in the final analysis. Resistin gene expression in the greater omental adipose tissue (A value) was 0.27±0.031 in the high-fat diet diabetic group (0.15±0.018) in the normal chew group, and (0.20±0.024) in rosiglitazone group (P < 0.01). Spearman correlation analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that resistin gene expression was positively correlated with fasting serum glucose (r=0.271, P < 0.01), fasting insulin (r=0.283, P < 0.01), and ISI (r =0.323, P < 0.01), apparent effects of resistin gene expression on ISI was 0.081.CONCLUSION: High-fat diet and diabetes increases resistin gene expression and rosiglitazone ameliorate its expression.The expression of resistin is correlated with ISI.

Objective To investigate the serum levels of anti-BRAF antibody in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its clinical significance.Methods Blood samples from 129 patients with RA,71 patients with other rheumatic diseases and 68 healthy controls were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA).The serum levels of anti-BRAF antibody in patients with RA were divided into high,medium and low groups,each group had 43 cases.The clinical symptoms,immunological findings and related imaging data of all cases were recorded.We investigated the relationship between the serum levels of anti-BRAF antibody and the clinical symptoms,immunological findings and related imaging changes of the RA group.Chi-square test,Mann-Whitney U test,Spearman's correlation test were used for statistical analysis.Results ① The serum levels of anti-BRAF antibody were significantly higher in RA group [A:1.093 (0.150-3.210)] than in other rheumatic diseases group [A:0.278 (0.093-0.455)] and healthy controls [A:0.202 (0.121-0.443)] (Z=-11.223,P=0.021 ; Z=-7.839,P=0.008 7).The serum levels of anti-BRAF antibody was not significantly different between patients with other rheumatic diseases group and healthy controls (Z=-0.905,P=0.445).② The difference in positive rate of rheumatoid factor (RF) in different groups of anti-BRAF antibody levels was statistically significant (λx2=10.14,P=0.006),namely the positive rate was significantlyhigher in the low-level group (88％) than in the high-level group (58％) (x2=10.03,P=0.002).Thepositive rate of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody and anti-keratin antibody of the three groups was not significantly different (x2=0.721,P=0.697; x2=1.735,P=0.188).③ There was significant negative correlation between the levels of anti-BRAF antibody and the course of disease (r=-0.233,P=0.047),RF(r=-2.84,P=0.039),IgM (r=-0.234,P=0.038),and hemoglobin (r=-0.287,P=0.032).There was no significant correlation between the level of anti-BRAF antibody and the joint swelling index (r=-0.133,P=0.230),joint pain index (r=-0.173,P=0.100),other clinical and laboratory parameters.There was significantly negative correlation between the ESR and hemoglobin level.④ There was no significant difference of the level of anti-BRAF antibody between the normal group and patients with bone destruction in the RA group (Z=-0.642,P=0.521).⑤ There was no significant difference in the level of anti-BRAF antibody between the normal group and patients with interstitial pulmonary fibrosis group in the RA group (Z=-0.121,P=0.904).Conclusion The anti-BRAF antibody can be used for the diagnosis of RA as a new autoantibody,and it can also be used in the diagnosis of early or RF-negative RA.There is no correlation between the level of anti-BRAF antibody and bone destruction and interstitial pulmonary fibrosis.
