An embryonic stem cell (ESC) is a good tool to generate neurons in vitro and can be used to mimic neural development in vivo. It has been widely used in research to examine the role of cell signalling during neuronal development, test the effects of drugs on neurons, and generate a large population of functional neurons. So far, a number of protocols have been established to promote the differentiation of ESCs, such as direct and indirect differentiation. One of the widely used protocols to generate neurons is through the spontaneous formation of multicellular aggregates known as embryonic bodies (EBs). However, for some, it is not clear why EB protocol could be the protocol of choice. EB also is known to mimic an early embryo; hence, knowing the similarities between EB and an early embryo is essential, particularly the information on the players that promote the formation of EBs or the aggregation of ESCs. This review paper focuses on these issues and discusses further the generation of neural cells from EBs using a well-known protocol, the 4−/4+ protocol.

Objective To evaluate protective effects of hypothermic pulmonary protective solution with uli-nastatin on lung function during cardiopulmouary bypass (CPB) in the patients with congenital heart disease(CHD) and pulmonary hypertenion. Method Fifty-four children,who had CHD of left-to-fight shunts with moderate-se-rious pulmonary hypertension, were enrolled. They had been performed with the radical operation under CPB from September 2005 to December 2006 in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Children' s Hospital of Zhejiang University. Moderate-serious pulmonary hypertension was defined as pulmonary-to-systolic pressure ratio > 0.45(Pp/Ps > 0.45). Fifty-four children were randomly divided into three groups. Patients in group A (n = 18)didn't receive pulmonary protective solution, and scrved as control; patients in group B (n = 18) were adminis-tered with pulmonary protective solution without ulinastatin;patients in group C (n = 18) were administered with pulmonary protective solution with ulinastatin. The serum concentrations of MDA and MPO were measured at five different time points:pre-operation, 0 h, 3 h, 6 h and 24 h in the intensive care unit (ICU) (T1～5). Patients'lung functions were monitored at T1 - T4. The time of mechanical ventilation was recorded. Results No one died in this study. The mean time of mechanical ventilation was shorter in the group B and group C than that in the group A. The MDA and MPO levels were lower in group B compared with group A at T4. The MDA level at T3-T5 and the MPO level at T4 was lower in group C than those in group A. There were no significant in MDA and MPO levels between group B and group C at five time point.A-aDO2 was lower in groups B and C than those in group A at T3 and T4, whereas at T4, A-aDO2 was lower in group C than that in group B. Cdyn was higher in group B at T3and group C at T3 - T4 than those in group A. Cdyn was lower in groups C than that in group B at T4.Condusions Lung perfusion with hypothermic protective solution during CPB can all lung injury and promote recovery after operation, especialy with ulinastatin.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of CT spectral imaging parameters in evaluating the liver function in patients with different types of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS),by comparing the normalized iodine concentration (NIC) and the slope of spectral curve in liver segment Ⅰ-Ⅷ,portal vein (PV),hepatic vein (HV),inferior vena cava (IVC) and spleen.Methods Eighty-one patients with BCS underwent spectral CT angiography.NIC,spectral decay curve and the slope of spectral curve of liver segment Ⅰ-Ⅷ in portal venous phase,PV,HV,IVC and spleen were measured and calculated.Clinical indicators of liver function including prothrombin time (PT),albumin (ALB),total bilirubin (TBIL),aspartate transaminase (AST),alanine transaminase (ALT) were recorded.Quantitative data were analyzed using One-way ANOVA.Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation of liver NIC and clinical liver function indexes.Results PT and TBIL were negatively correlated with liver NIC and there was a positive correlation between ALB and liver NIC (P＜0.05).The differences of NIC among the three types of BCS in liver segment Ⅱ-Ⅵ,HV,IVC and spleen were statistically significant (P＜0.05) and the difference of slopes of the spectral curves among three types of BCS in liver segment Ⅱ-V and spleen was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusion Combined use of spectral CT multi-site and multi-parameter imaging may be useful in the evaluation of liver function in patients with BCS.

Objective: To assess the feasibility and efficacy of a staged invasive treatment strategy for the treatment of pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum, in the first stage using a catheter-based stent placement, second-stage surgery, and three-stage atrial septal occlusion. Methods: Totally 19 children with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum were enrolled at Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, the Children′s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2009 to December 2017, including 11 male and 8 female patients. The age was (13.8±7.7) days (ranging from 3 to 35 days). The weight was (3.4±0.5) kg (ranging from 2.8 to 4.1 kg). Among them, there were 13 cases of type Ⅱ and 6 cases of type Ⅲ. Regular follow-up visits for patients with stage Ⅰ arterial duct stenting after 1, 3, and 6 months; and routine follow-ups for 1, 3, and 6 months after stage Ⅱ surgery.The t test was used to compare the oxygen saturation between pre-operation and post-operation. Results: All 19 patients underwent arterial catheterization. The preoperative peripheral oxygen saturation was (64.4±5.3)%, while increased to (86.0±3.0)% after operation (t=16.353, P=0.000). One patient died during follow-up and 2 patients lost follow-up. One patient received stent balloon dilatation due to oxygen saturation decrease.Twelve patients completed the second-stage surgery and 1 case died after surgery. The rest were alive, including 2 cases of double-ventricular correction and 9 cases of semi-ventricular treatment in one room; 2 cases had completed three-stage atrial septal occlusion. Conclusions Stage Ⅰ arterial duct stent, stage Ⅱ surgery, and stage Ⅲ atrial septal occlusion to treat pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum in children is feasible and effective. The method can be used as the important treatment direction for pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum.

Mechanosensitive (MS) channels are extensively studied membrane protein for maintaining intracellular homeostasis through translocating solutes and ions across the membrane, but its mechanisms of channel gating and ion selectivity are largely unknown. Here, we identified the YnaI channel as the Na/K cation-selective MS channel and solved its structure at 3.8 Å by cryo-EM single-particle method. YnaI exhibits low conductance among the family of MS channels in E. coli, and shares a similar overall heptamer structure fold with previously studied MscS channels. By combining structural based mutagenesis, quantum mechanical and electrophysiological characterizations, we revealed that ion selective filter formed by seven hydrophobic methionine (YnaI) in the transmembrane pore determined ion selectivity, and both ion selectivity and gating of YnaI channel were affected by accompanying anions in solution. Further quantum simulation and functional validation support that the distinct binding energies with various anions to YnaI facilitate Na/K pass through, which was defined as binding-block mechanism. Our structural and functional studies provided a new perspective for understanding the mechanism of how MS channels select ions driven by mechanical force.
