AIM:To further study the anti-tumor effect of angiostatin, an anti-human angiostatin monoclonal antibody was prepared and identified.METHODS:The hybrodoma techniques were used. The BALB/C mice were immunized with angiostatin. The supernatant of cell culture were collected and screened by ELISA and double immunodiffusion.RESULTS: There cell lines which steadily secreted the anti-angiostatin monoclonal antibody were identified by ELISA and double immunodiffusion. The antibody was IgG1 and specifically recognized angiostatin without crossing reactions to rhIL-2, rhTNF-?, rhIFN-? and serum proteins.CONCLUSION: The antibodies secreted by three hybridoma cell lines identified by several methods were specific antibodies of angiostatin.

To obtain high-yield avilamycin-producing strains,low energy N~+ ion implantation technology and screening of streptomycin-re- sistant mutants are used in the study on breeding mutation.The results show that,“saddle”region,which range is from 3?10~(15) to 5?10~(15) ions/cm~2,has got better induced mutation action.It also means that the strain's resistant mutation and yield mutation closely correlate to each other,and the method of streptomycin resistant screening is feasible.We have isolated a high-yield strain SVT-45 which the productivi- ty is 195% higher than the original strain's in the rotation-flask experiments.These results showed that the ion implantation was an effective method for microbe mutagensis.

Objective:To differentiate human embryonic stem cells ( hESCs ) into keratinocytes ( K-hESCs) and analyse the expression characteristics of biomarkers of K-hESCs.Methods: The hESCs of line H9 were seeded on matrigel in mTeSR1 medium.The hESCs were directly differentiated into kerati-nocytes in epithelial differentiation medium with bone morphogenetic protein 4, retinoic acid and N2 sup-plement.The karyotype of K-hESCs was analyzed, comparing the gene expression differences of K-hESCs with human gingival epithelial cells (HGECs), human immortalized oral epithelial cells (HIOECs) and HaCaT by Real-time PCR.Molecular characteristics of the cell differentiation were observed throughout the process by immunocytochemical techniques.Results:H9-hESCs were successfully differentiated into the cells that exhibited characteristics of keratinocytes in epithelial differentiation medium.The karyotype of K-hESCs was 46, XX; and the keratinocyte gene p63 expression in K-hESCs was significantly lower than that in HaCaT ( P<0.05) , but there was no significant difference of p63 expression in K-hESCs, comparing with that in HGECs and HIOECs ( P >0.05 ) .Conclusion: H9-hESCs could be directly differentiated into K-hESCs.The gene expression of K-hESCs was similar to that of epithelial cells in the early stage of monolayer cells differentiation with high proliferative activity.

Objective To evaluate the correlation between multi-slice spiral CT(MSCT)perfusion imaging parameters and gastric carcinoma differentiation.Methods MSCT perfusion parameters including blood flow(BF),patlak blood volume(PBV),time to peak (TTP)and patlak permeability surface(PPS)were obtained in 44 patients with pathologically confirmed gastric carcinoma before sur-gery.Patients were divided into two groups;26 well differentiated and 18 poorly differentiated.According to the extent of cell differ-entiation ,BF,PBV,TTP and PPS were investigated in two groups.Results Parameters in the well differentiated gastric carcinoma group BF 101.8±6.7 (mL·min-1 ·100 mL-1 ),PBV 85.9±3.4 (mL/1 000 mL ),TTP 121.6±1 1.5(0.1 s),PPS 82.7±1 1.0 (0.5 mL·min-1 ·100 mL-1 )respectivily,Parameters in the poorly differentiated gastric carcinoma group,BF 105.3 ±7.7,PBV 92.1±7.1,TTP 113.0±10.5,PPS 94.3±22.9 respectivily.There was no statistic difference in BF value between the two groups(P >0.05). There were statistic differences in TTP、PBV and PPS between the two groups(P <0.05).Conclusion MSCT perfusion parameters may reflect the degree of differentiation of gastric carcinoma or a certain extent in vivo.

Objective To study the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen(HO)for the delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning(DEACMP)Method One hundred and eleven patients who were diagnozed as the DEACMP from November 2000 to March 2007 in Tangdu Hospital the Fourth Military Medical University were randomly divided into two groups.Thirty-six cases were treated by onventional approach(group A),and 76 cases by HO besides conventional treatment(group B).The efficacy of HO was evaluated after 4courses of treatment. The curative effects were evaluated as(1)cured:clinical symptoms and signs fully disappeared,abnormal electroencephalogram recovered,patients were completely self-help and competent enough for routine work.(2)improved:chnical symptoms and signs partly disappeared,abnormal electroencephalogram partly recovered,patients were partial self-help and incompetent enough for routine work.(3)inefficacy:patient's condition didn't changed.Data were expressed as((x)±s)and analyzed with the chi-quare test and t-test.The statistical significance was established as P＜0.05.Results In group B,62(81.58%)were in good recover,9(11.84%)improved and 5(6.94%)were inefficacy;while in group A:21(58.33%)were in good recover,5(13.89%)were improved and 10(27.78%)were inefficacy.The effciency rate in group B was significantly higher(93.42%)than that(72.22%)in group A(P＜0.05),and the required time for the therapeutic effect noticed time in group B were significantly shorter(P＜0.05)Conclusions HO Can improve the therapeutic effects on DEACMP

Objective:To evaluate the pregnancy outcomes of fetal tethered cord (TC) prenatally diagnosed by MRI.Methods:Clinical data of 38 fetuses diagnosed as having TC by MRI, including 36 singletons and two fetuses who were both one of dichorionic diamniotic twins, were retrospectively collected and analyzed in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University from January 2015 to August 2019. According to whether conus medullaris was located above the bladder or reached the lower edge of the bladder, all cases were divided into high or low groups. Pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups using Fisher's exact test and Student's t-test. Results:(1) The gestational age at MRI was (25.5±4.7) weeks. Among the 38 cases, 14 (36.8%) were isolated TC, 24 (63.2%) were complicated by other anomalies. The meningocele was responsible for the most (39.5%, n=15). The results of the ultrasound were consistent with those of MRI in 24 cases (63.2%). While in the other 14 cases (36.8%), the ultrasound only showed vertebral body's abnormal morphology, after which further MRI examination revealed a tethered cord. (2) Twenty-nine women (76.3%) chose to terminate the pregnancy. One patient (2.6%) underwent fetal reduction at 23 gestational weeks (one normal twin was delivered prematurely), and one (2.6%) was lost to follow-up. Seven (18.4%) cases continued the pregnancies to delivery. The postnatal follow-up period was 8.1 months (4.0 to 54.9 months). Two infants without comorbidities showed normal growth and development. Another three cases underwent surgeries after birth, and two cases died in the neonatal period. (3) The average width of the medullary cone was (2.5±0.8) cm. There was no significant difference in the spinal cord width between the high [(2.5±0.8) cm, n=34] and low group [(2.7±1.1) cm, n=4]. Six pregnancies (17.6%) in the high group was continued to delivery, and one of the neonates died of severe hydrocephalus. One patient in the low group (1/4) was delivered, while the baby died of neonatal asphyxia. Conclusions:Fetuses with isolated TC are prone to have a good prognosis. Further study should focus on the relation between the high or low position of the conus medullaris and pregnancy outcomes.
