Methods The model of PD was established by oral administration of paraquat to mice.The spectrophotometry was used to determine the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-PX) and the content of malondialdehyde(MDA) in substantia nigra.At the same time,number of tyrosine hydroxylase(TH) positive neurons in substantia nigra of mice was estimated by immunohistochemistry. Results The activities of SOD and GSH-PX were significantly decreased,and the content of MDA was increased in paraquat-treated mice compared to that of mice treated by saline taken orally(P

Objective To investigate the experimental condition of separate purification and directed differentiation potency of pancreatic stem cells of adult rats in vitro. Methods The pancreas of adult rats were digested by collagenase V in situ perfusion. Filtration was performed by 100 mesh filter. Ficoll 400 density gradient centrifugation was used to separate pancreatic stem cells and stem cells were for cultivation. Epidermal growth factor (EGF), fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was added to medium for in vitro cultivation.Immunofluorescence staining method was used to detect the expression of CK19, Pdx-1, nestin, insulin and glucagon, and the positive cell rate was calculated. The differentiated cell was evaluated by dithizone (DTZ)staining; insulin excretion function was determined by optical enzyme labeled ELISA staining. Results The pancreatic stem cell obtained from the study could be cultivated in vitro for 8 generations. The expression of CK19, Pdx-1 and nestin of the tem cells were all positive, and the rate of positive cells were (88.6 ± 6.2)% ,(84.6 ±8.6)% and (81.3 ±7.5)%. The differentiated cell was in brownish red color by DTZ dye. After high concentration sugar stimulation, the expression of insulin secretion was increased in the supernatant.Conclusions This method can harvest highly purified, and large amount of pancreatic duct stem cell.Artificial induction may result directed differentiate for islet-like clusters and have insulin secrete function.

BACKGROUND:Neural stem cel transplantation provides an important way to treat sequela of traumatic brain injury, but the timing for treatment is inconclusive.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical effect of neural stem cel transplantation in the treatment of sequela of traumatic brain injury and the choice of the best treatment time.
METHODS: Totaly 178 patients with sequela of traumatic brain injury who underwent neural stem cel transplantation were divided into three groups as per the timing for neural stem cel transplantation: group A (with 6 months after injury,n=60), group B (6-12 months after injury,n=59), and group C (over 12 months after injury,n=59). Improvement in clinical symptoms and scores on function independent measure (FIM) were recorded and compared in the three groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The total effective rate of group A was significantly higher than that in groups B and C (P < 0.05). FIM scores were significantly improved in the three groups after cel transplantation (P < 0.05). At 3 months after the fourth transplantation, the FIM score in the group A was significantly higher than that in the other two groups, and the incidence of adverse reactions in the group A was significantly lower than that in the other two groups (P < 0.05). These findings indicate that neural stem cel transplantation at different timing can al harvest certain clinical effects, but the best timing for neural stem cel transplantation is within 6 months after injury.

BacKground:RectaI carcinoid is a rareIy seen neuroendocrine tumor. TiII now,there is controversiaI for the treatment modaIities of rectaI carcinoids with diameter between 1-2 cm. Aims:To study the expression of Ki-67 in rectaI carcinoids and the efficacy and safety of endoscopic resection. Methods:A totaI of 83 rectaI carcinoid patients with tumor diameter Iess than 1. 5 cm were enroIIed. AII patients were pathoIogicaIIy diagnosed and underwent endoscopic mucosaI resection from Jan. 2008 to Dec. 2013 at Chongqing Three Gorges CentraI HospitaI and Wuhan Tongji HospitaI. The medicaI records were retrospectiveIy reviewed and expression of Ki-67 in tumor tissue was assessed by immunohistochemistry. Results:AII patients underwent preoperative endoscopic uItrasonography. Tumors were Iimited to mucosa or submucosa, and no muscuIaris propria invoIvement or metastasis was seen. The mean foIIow-up duration was 38 months,and no recurrence or metastasis occurred. Ki-67 was IowIy expressed in aII rectaI carcinoids(0. 84% ± 0. 67%). When tumors were grouped by size,no significant differences in gender,age,tumor site and Ki-67 expression IeveI were seen between <1. 0 cm group and 1. 0-1. 5 cm group(P >0. 05). Furthermore,when tumors were grouped by a cutoff vaIue of mean Ki-67 index 0. 84%,differences in cIinicopathoIogicaI parameters between the two groups were not significant either( P >0. 05 ). Conclusions:Ki-67 is IowIy expressed in rectaI carcinoids Iess than 1. 5 cm in diameter enroIIed in this study,which denoted an inactive proIiferation. For rectaI carcinoids with diameter Iess than 1. 5 cm,with Iow Ki-67 expression and without muscuIaris propria invoIvement and metastasis, IocaI endoscopic excision is an effective and safe treatment modaIity.

Objective To analyze related factors for pacemaker pocket infection in elderly patients after implantation of permanent pacemakers and to provide a theoretical basis for preventing pacemaker pocket infection.Methods Pacemaker pocket infection and related factors were analyzed for 412 patients who received implantation of permanent pacemakers from Apr.2010 to Jun.2013 in the Department of Cardiology.Results With 5 cases of pacemaker pocket infection,the rate of infection was 1.2％.The infected patients were older than the uninfected patients [(74.5±4.2) years vs.(60.3±6.6) years,t=4.781,P＜0.01].The rate of infection was higher in patients who had undergone operations twice or more than in patients who had undergone one operation [10.0％ (3/300) vs.0.5％ (2/382),x2=10.583,P＜0.01].The rate of infection was higher in patients with the operation lasting 2 hours or longer than in patients with the operation time shorter than 2 hours [(3.8％ (4/106) vs.0.3％ (1/306),x2=7.802,P＜0.01].The rate of infection was higher in patients with pocket hematoma than in patients without pocket hematoma [16.7％ (3/18) vs.0.5％(2/394),x2=37.492,P＜0.01].Independent risk factors for pacemaker pocket infection included pocket hematoma (OR=6.193),number of operations≥2 (OR=2.594),operating time≥2 hours (OR=2.265) and age of 75 years or older (OR =2.193).Conclusions Pocket infection after implantation of permanent pacemakers is related to pocket hematoma,number of operations,operating time and age.
