BACKGROUND:Existing evidence has confirmed that umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel s have an effect on functional recovery of a variety of damaged cel s.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel transplantation on ovarian cancer chemotherapy.
METHODS:Sixty healthy adult female Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group, damage group and treatment group (n=20/group). There was no treatment in the control group, and a rat model of ovarian cancer chemotherapy damage was made in the damage group and treatment group. After successful modeling, rats in the control group were given normal saline injection via the tail vein, and those in the damage and treatment groups were given paclitaxel chemotherapy and pacligaxel chemotherapy plus umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel transplantation, respectively. After transplantation of 2 weeks, mRNA and protein expressions of XAF1 and Survivin in ovarian tumor tissues were detected by RT-PCR and western blot assay, respectively. Apoptosis in ovarian cancer cel s were detected using TUNEL method.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the damage group, a significant up-regulation of XAF1 mRNA and protein but a remarkable down-regulation of Survivin mRNA and protein were obtained in the treatment group (P<0.05). A severe damage to the ovarian tissues was visible in the damage group, presenting with large hemorrhage and necrosis area. This damage was markedly reduced in the treatment group. Additional y, the apoptotic rate of ovarian cancer cel s was significantly higher in the treatment group than the damage group (P<0.05). Al these findings indicate that umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel transplantation aids in ovarian cancer chemotherapy to promote ovarian tissue repair in rats, and XAF1 and Survivin cannot be ignored in tumor angiogenesis and ovarian cancer cel apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of IL-10 and IL-6 in tissue and plasma of subtypes lymphoma and its significance. Methods Immunohistochemical technique and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to assess the expression of IL-10 and IL-6 in 97 cases paraffin tissue and plasma samples from different subtypes of lymphoma.Results Expression of IL-10 and IL-6 was positive in all lymphoma tissue samples, but there is no significant difference among different subtypes lymphoma (x2 =0.815, x2 =0.542, P ＞ 0.05). Tumor samples were found positive IL-10 and IL-6 expression in macrophages and vascular endothelial cells by immunohistochemistry respectively. Expression of IL-10 and IL-6 in plasma of lymphoma were higher than that in control respectively [(232.57±191.59) pg/ml vs (59.12±68.35) pg/ml,(80.70±89.68) pg/ml vs (45.68±33.66) pg/ml],with significant difference (t =6.968,t =2.896,P ＜0.05).IL-10 and IL-6 plasma levels increased with enhanced expression in lymphoma (x2 =0.815,x2 =0.542,P ＜ 0.05).Which was found to be correlated with each other (rs =0.394,P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion The expression of IL-10 and IL-6 had been found at various degrees in tissues and plasma of lymphoma.IL-10 and IL-6 in plasma of lymphoma were higher than that in controls. These results showed that IL-10 and IL-6 may cooperate in vivo with lymphoma cell proliferation and infiltrate. IL-6 and IL-10 maybe served as useful indicators for diagnosis of lymphoma.

Objective To explore the influence of stereoscopic vision on the development of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) after intraocular lens implantation. The efficacy of Nd: YAG laser was studied. Design Case-controlled study. Participants 57 consecutive patients with POC(59 eyes with phacoemulsification and IOL implantation). Methods A prospective observational study was conducted comprising 57 patients (59 eyes) who had postoperative PCO. Neodymium: YAG (Nd: YAG) laser posterior capsulatomy was performed on all patients following a standardizes procedure. Preoperative and postoperative evaluation included LogMAR visual acuity, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), contrast sensitivity and stereoscopic vision. Main Outcome Measures LogMAR visual acuity, BCVA, contrast sensitivity and stereoscopic vision. Results The average LogMAR eyesight median of sick eye before laser treatment was (0.22?0.31) and the contrast sensitive degree of each frequency area was relatively lower than the opposite eye; After the treatment, there was evident improvement of the sick eye, and the LogMAR eyesight median of that was 0.00; The ratio of reaching the central spatial eyesight and the average sharpness degree both improve much than ahead of treatment. Those whose spatial eyesight sharpness don't get normal after the low best remedy eyesight. Irregular dipodic and previous eye disease. Conclusions LogMAR visual acuity, BCVA, contrast sensitivity and stereoscopic vision were damaged markedly with PCO. Our results indicate that Nd: YAG capsulotomy may affect the reconstruction of stereoscopic vision. Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is a valuable and clinically relevant method for clinical treatment of PCO.

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are in advantages of easy collection and amplification in vitro, but the culture and induction in vitro still need to be modified. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the differentiated potency of BMSCs into ostcoblasts by modified in vitro culture methods and inductor matching. DESIGN: Observational study. SETTING: Department of Medical Laboratory, General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. MATERIALS: This study was performed in the Stem Cell Tissue Engineering Laboratory, Department of Medical Laboratory, Genera Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA from July 2004 to June 2006. Twenty adult SD rats of clean grade, irrespective of gender, weighing 140-180 g were provided by Animal Experimental Center, General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. The experimental animals were disposed according to ethical criteria. Β-sodium glycerophosphate, dexamethasone, and vitamin C were provided by Sigma Company, USA; goat-anti-rat osteocalcin antibody by DSL Company, USA; S-P immunohistochemical kit by Maixin Biotechnology Developing Co., Ltd., Fujian. METHODS: Cells were cultured and induced into osteoblasts by modified methods. Separation and culture of BMSCs: By anesthesia, bone marrow of bilateral femur and tibia was separated to prepare single cell suspension; subsequently, the suspension was inoculated in culture bottle, and the culture media was semi-quantitatively changed after 48 and 96 hours in order to get rid of non-adherent hematopoietic cells. The liquid was changed every three days to further get rid of non-adherent cells. At 80% cell confluence, the medium was digested with 0.25% trypsin and cells were subcultured in the ratio of 1:2. MSCs in the second generation were inoculated in 6-well culture plate and glass fiat plate; after 48 hours, basic culture fluid was removed. Differentiation of BMSCs into osteoblasts: Subcultured BMSCs differentiated into osteoblasts induced by dexamethasone (10 mmol/L), β-sodium glycerophosphate (10-7 mol/L), and vitamin C (50 mg/L). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Ten days after differentiation by modified culture methods and inductor matching, alkaline phosphatase activity was measured with Ca-Co technique. Twelve days after culture, osteocalcin secretion was detected with immunohistochemical method. Two weeks after culture, cell mineralization was detected with Von kossa staining. RESULTS: Alkaline phosphatase activity: Alkaline phosphatase staining of cells was apparent; gray-black particles or massive precipitations were observed in cytoplasm after positive reaction; regions expressing alkaline phosphatase activity were brown-black. Osteocalcin secretion: Osteocalcin was apparently positive; nucleus was blue; cytoplasm was brown. Cell mineralization: Induced cells grew layer by layer, and adiaphanous nodus was observed at the same time. Black mineralized nodus granules in various sizes were observed after Von kossa staining, and this suggested that mineralized apposition occurred. CONCLUSION: BMSCs may be successfully cultured and induced into osteoblasts by modified culture method.
