Objective To investigate MRI features and its clinical value in the pigmented nodular synovitis (PVNS) of the knee joint in order to improve the accuracy of diagnosis of the disease.Methods MRI signs of 9 cases with PVNS of knee joint confirmed by operation and pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results In 9 patients, joint effusion and marginal bone erosion were found.Diffuse thickening of the synovial membrane, multiple soft tissue nodules showed hypointense on T1WI and mixed hypointense and hyperointense on T2WI,were revealed on MRI.Conclusion MRI features of PVNS of the knee joint are characteristic, which reflects the pathological basis and helps to improve the diagnostic accuracy of the disease.

T lymphocytes play a very important role in tumor immunity, which recognize tumor antigenic peptide presented by MHC molecules on the surface of tumor cells through T cell receptor ( TCR) . Cytotoxic T lymphocytes kill tumor cells after recognizing antigenic peptide in the cleft of MHC class I molecules. It is now generally accepted that peptides naturally presented by a given MHC class I molecule have a specific motif which is referred to as MHC class I allele-specific consensus motif and that synthetic peptide corresponding to the identified naturally presented antigens exhibit remarkable activity in inducing T-cell responses. FBL-3 is a transplantable Friend virus-induced leukemia of B6 (H-2b) origin,which can induce the CTL against FBL-3 by immunizing B6 mice with atenuated FBL-3.Seven peptides were predicted as candidates of FBL-3 antigenic peptides in the light of H-2Db specific peptide binding motif and gag gene sequence of Friend virus. The synthetic peptides, named gagl to gag7, were obtainted. The results showed that CTL specific to gag3 could be induced by in vivo immunizing B6 mice with gag3 in IFA, but a primary T cell response could not be induced by in vitro immuniztion with the peptides. gag3 and gag5 could be recognized by specific CTL to FBL-3,because the CTLs obviously killed target cells (EL-4) pulsed with gag3 or gag5. Immunization with gag3 and gag5 could not induce an immune response to protect the subsequent challenge of FBL-3 in B6 mice which could be induced by immunizing B6 mice with parental FBL-3 tumor cells. This indicates these 7 synthetic peptides may not be the same antigens of the FBL-3.

T lymphocytes, which play a very important role in tumor immunity, recognize the tumor antigenic peptide presented by MHC molecules on the surface of tumor cells. FBL-3 is a transplantable Friend virus-induced leukemia of B6 (H-2~(b) ) origin, which can induce the CTL against FBL-3 by immunizing B6 mice with attenuated FBL-3. The present paper was to elute immunogenic peptides ( CD8+ T cell epitopes) from class I complexes at the cell surface of viable FBL-3 cells by acid treatment. The acid treated cells remained viable but lost sensitivity to be lysed by FBL-3 specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). The sensitivity of the acid-treated cell was restored to the FBL-3 specific CTLs by supplement of the acid-eluted cell-free supematants. Paptides were subsequently fractionated by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) . The fractionated peptides in HPLC fractions 5~6 and 23 ~ 60 (tubes) showed the capacity to sensitize RAM-S cells, which could be lysised by FBL-3 specific CTLs. The experiment indicates that this method may be useful in the definition of petide epitopes relevant to tumor cells.

Objective To construct an eukaryotic expression vector of pre-miR-15a,and to investigate the inhibitory effect of pre-miR-15a to Raji cells. Methods The pGCSIL-GFP vector encoding pre-miR-15a nucleotides was transfected into the bacterial competent cells,and then confirmed by PCR and sequencing analysis. The identified vector was transfected into Raji cells with oligofectamine 2000. The cells were divided into 3 groups,blank,negative control and pre-miR-15a group. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA,and immunofluorescence indirect for Bcl-2 protein expression. The growth of Raji cells was assayed by trypan blue dye exclusion method. Results PCR and sequences analysis indicated that the recombinant clones was identical with target sequences. Many green fluorescent cells were observed under fluorescent microscopy. The levels of Bcl-2 mRNA at every group had no obviously difference. Bcl-2 protein expression was obviously decreased at pre-miR-15a group compared with the other groups. Trypan blue dye exclusion method showed the cell growth was inhibited at 48 h and 72 h post-transfection. Conclusion We successfully construct the eukaryotic expression vector of pre-miR-15a,and it can inhibit the growth of Raji cells.

It is scanty in reports about the anatomy of the medial thoracic free flap, that which one of the perforating arteries of the internal thoracic artery is the main arterial source of this flap is still in dispute. This investigation was based on dissection of 50 sides of adult cadavers under the operating microscope.Among the perforating arteries of the internal thoracic artery in the upper four intercostal spaces, the second perforating artery presents a higher incidence of occurence, it also possesses a larger caliber and distributing area. So that it would be the first choice as a pedicle artery in the transplantation of the medial thoracic free flap. The next choice is the first perforating artery, because its distributing area is larger than that of the third as well as the fourth arteries.The second intercostal space is the widest among all other spaces. The internal thoarcic artery in this space is located more superficial and stands further apart from the lateral border of the sternum than that in the other three intercostal spaces. All these advantages are in favor for taking the second perforating artery as the pedicle artery of the free flap or even to take the internal thoracic artery of the same segment together with it. If a portion of the second costal cartilage isresected, the first two perforating arteries and their related portion of internal thoracic artery can be involved in the pedicle, and the area of the skin flap will be increased to a large extent.Some of the applied anatomy of the transplantation of the medial thoracic free flap has been discussed.

Objective To compare the influence of three kinds of complete media with 0. 10 ,0. 15 ,0. 20 fetal bo-vine serum( FBS) on purity and cycle of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells ( BMSCs) cultured in vitro and to seek suitable FBS concentration for the cultivation of the stem cells. Methods SD rats were executed by cervical dislocation method and used whole bone marrow adherence to isolate rat BMSCs. Experiment was divided into A, B,C,3 groups. Compared the expression of CD45, CD29, CD90, CD44 in the three groups in 2,3,4,5 passages ( P2 , P3 , P4 , P5 );the cells of P3 in group A were digested and cultured in three different concentration of com-plete culture media for four days, measuring cell cycle in 24,48,72,96 h by flow cytometry instrument. BMSCs of P3 were collected and inoculated to 6 pieces of 96-well plates, then vaccinated with complete media with 0. 10, 0. 15,0. 20 FBS in every plate, one culture plate was taken out for optical density(OD) meaturement every day with CCK-8. Results CD45 was negative, CD29, CD90, CD44 were positive. The difference of BMSCs surface markers cultured in the three kinds of complete media was bigger in the first two passages, but the difference was less in P3 , P4 , all could obtain pure BMSCs in P4 relatively;according to the results of the cell cycle at the same time, G0/G1 phase:with the increase of concentration of fetal bovine, G0/G1 phase reduced and had no diference in A, B, C groups;G2/M phase:there was difference between them after 24 h(P<0. 05,F=12. 412), but with the extension of time, the differences disappeared;S phase:there was no difference in the three groups;S+G2/M phase increased with the concentration of FBS. According to the result of cell vitality, the OD of ABC three groups increased in turn in 24 h, and there was difference(P<0. 05,F=5. 002), but with the extension of time, there was no obvious difference between them. Conclusion The three kinds of culture media in P4 can obtain pure BM-SCs, cell cycle and vitality show three complete media can promote the growth of BMSCs. There is no difference between them. Culture media with 0. 10 FBS can satisfy the isolation and amplification of BMSCs, in order to ob-tain pure BMSCs in the short term, using culture media with 0. 15 and 0. 10 FBS in the primary culture and subcul-ture respectively.
