To experimentally evaluate the ectopic osteogenetic capacity of synthesized BMP2-derived peptide P24 combined with poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), Wistar rats were divided into two groups: group A, in which BMP2-derived peptide P24/PLGA complex was implanted, and group B which received simple PLGA implant. The complex was respectively implanted into the back muscles of rats. Samples were taken the 1st, 4th, 8th, and the 12th week after the implantation. Their bone formation was detected by X-ray examination, and tissue response was histologically observed. Western blotting was used for the detection of the expression of collagen I (Col-I) and osteopontin (OPN). There was acute inflammation in the tissue around both types of implants at early stage. The cartilage was found around implant areas 4 weeks after the implantation of BMP2-derived peptide p24/PLGA complex, 8 weeks after the implantation, osteoblasts were found, and 12 weeks after the implantation, typical trabecular bone structure was observed. In group B, after 12 weeks, no osteoblasts were found. It is concluded that PLGA is an ideal scaffold material for bone tissue engineering. BMP2-derived peptide can start endochondral ossification and is more effective in inducing ectopic osteogenesis.

Objective To analyze the etiology of cerebral ischemic complications occurring in perioperative period of interventional therapy for intracranial aneurysms,and to discuss its prevention and treatment.Methods From January 2011 to March 2015,a total of 1106 patients with intracranial aneurysms underwent interventional therapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University,China.Among the 1106 patients,48 patients developed cerebral ischemic complications;their clinical data and the imaging materials were retrospectively analyzed.The factors associated with complications,the effective therapeutic scheme and the clinical preventive methods were discussed.Three months after the treatment,the recovery of neurological function was assessed with modified Rankin Scale (mRS).Results The causes of ischemic complications were,in order of decreasing frequency,cerebral vasospasm/unable elimination of microemboli (n=19),thrombus (n=16),impaired blood flow of adjacent perforating or distal vascular branches caused by embolization (n=6),intra-procedural hypotension (n=4) and cerebral edema (n=3).Combined treatments,including integrated anticoagulation,anti-platelet aggregation,anti-vasospasm,medication of elevating blood pressure,endovascular intervention,etc.were adopted.The patients were followed up for 3 months.Thirty-four patients (70.8%) obtained a mRS of ≤2 (no serious sequelae),and mRS>2 (poor prognosis) was seen in 14 patients (29.2%).Conclusion The etiology of cerebral ischemia occurring during interventional treatment of intracranial aneurysms is complicated.It is necessary to take useful measures such as individualized anticoagulation,anti-platelet aggregation,anti-vasospasm,etc.during perioperative period of interventional therapy.The procedure-related complications can be effectively treated with interventional therapy and reliably prevented by careful and skilled surgical manipulation.

Objective To explore the clinical and histopathological features of metanephric adenoma (MA). MethodsClinical and pathological data of 10 cases of MA were analyzed retrospectively.There were 4 males and 6 females,aged from 33 to 65 years,with an average of 45 years.2 patients had flank pain,4 patients had gross hematuria,and 4 patients were found by physical examination.The average diameter of tumor was 4.5 cm (2.5 - 8.0 cm).All patients were diagnosed as renal tumor by CT scan.9 patients underwent radical nephrectomy and 1 patient underwent partial nephrectomy. Results Pathological examination found that the tumors are composed of densely packed small uniform cells with regular nuclei that formed a tubular or adenoid pattern.Mitotic figures were absent or rare.4 patients were diagnosed as MA,2 cases were diagnosed as low-grade malignant MA,and 4 cases were diagnosed as MA with malignant component (2 cases of adenocarcinoma,1 case of chromophobe cell carcinoma,and 1 case of well differentiated papillary adenocarcinoma),7 cases were followed up for 22 months ( 10 to 34 months) without recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions MA is very rare benign renal tumor originating from epithelium,and a few are malignant,and some may contain malignant ingredients.Nephron-sparing surgery and radical nephrectomy are eligible for the treatment of MA.Considering the uncertainty of the biological behavior and cellular origin of MA,a long-term follow-up is necessary.

Objective To investigate the effects of ISO-1, a selective MIF tautomerase activity inhibitor, on liver metastasis in a BALB/c mouse model of colonic cancer. Methods Micmporous migration assay was used to determine the effect of ISO-1 on the invasion abilities of CT26 cells. Orthotopic transplantation of fresh colonic tumor fragments into the hernial sac of cecum was used in a BALB/c mouse model of eolorectal cancer. Thirty mouse models were divided into three groups and treated respectively with ISO-1 (0. 2 ml, 20 mg/kg), 5% DMSO and NS ( normal sodium) twice a week, iutraperitoneally. After 4 weeks, mice were sacrificed and the whole livers were made into serial slices to detect the occurrence of liver metastasis. Serum MIF tautomerase activities were measured using L-dopachrome methyl ester, ELISA was used to test serum VEGF concentrations. Immunohistochemical staining of CD31 was used for comparing microvascular density (MVD) of tumor tissues. Results 100 μmol/L ISO-1 treatment for 24 hours significantly reduced the average number of the cells penetrating polycarbonates, ( 151 ± 19 ) vs. ( 178 ± 9 ), P<0. 01. Serum MIF tautomerase activities were significantly inhibited after ISO-1 treatment (51% vs. 81%, P <0. 01 ). Compared with DMSO and NS treatment, ISO-1 decreased the occurrence of liver metastasis ( 10% ,60% and 70% ,respectively;x2 = 8. 30, P < 0. 05 ). Also ISO-1 decreased serum VEGF levels ( 15 ± 7 ) pg/ml, ( 63 ± 11 ) pg/ml and ( 67 ± 8 ) pg/ml, respectively; P < 0. 01 and the MVD of tumor tissues (17±4) ,(36±7) and( 38±5) ,respectively; P<0. 01. Conclusion In vitro ISO-1 inhibits the invasion ability of CT26 cells. In vivo ISO-1 reduces the occurrence of liver metastasis, possibly by a mechanism of inhibiting MIF tautomerase activities, down-regulating the expression of VEGF and reducing MVD.
