BACKGROUND: Previous research has indicated that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells had immunological regulation and hematopoiesis role. There were significant differences in immunological regulation and hemopoietic function between patients with aplastic anemia and normal cases. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the in vitro biological characteristics and its immune regulation defects of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells from patients with aplastic anemia.METHODS: A computer-based online search was conducted in PUMMED (1987-2009) and VIP database (1989-2009) with the key words of "mesenchymal stem cell, bone marrow" in both Chinese and English. There were 55 articles in total. Articles which were related to biological characteristics and its immune regulation defects of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells were included; however, duplicated articles were excluded. Finally, 32 articles were included, containing 3 reviews in English, 23 original articles in English, and 6 original articles in Chinese. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells had the capacities of high proliferation, self-renewal and multilineage differentiation; in addition they had the roles of supporting hematopoiesis, promoting implantation and hematopoietic reconstitution in vivo. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells still had the effects of negative immune regulation and reducing the incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Aplastic anemia correlated with hematopoietic stem cells in the pathogenesis of intrinsic defects in the proliferation or differentiation of hematopoietic microenvironment and immune system abnormalities and other related disorders. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells of patients with aplastic anemia played an important role in the pathogenesis of this disease.

The liver is the most common site of distant metastasis of colorectal cancer. In order to study colorectal cancer metastasis to the liver, establishing and choosing appropriate mouse model is crucially im-portant. In this review, we mainly discuss the mouse models of colorectal cancer and liver metastases: Tumor fragments or cancer cells orthotopic transplant to eoloncecal part, injecting cancer cells into the spleen, portal injection of cancer cells, colorectal cancer implantation to the subcapsular of the liver.

Cardioplegic (and organ preservation) solutions were initially designed to protect the myocardium (cardiac myocytes) during cardiac surgery (and heart transplantation). Due to the differences between the cardiac myocytes and vascular (endothelial and smooth muscle) cells in structure and function, the solutions may have adverse effect on coronary vascular cells. However, such effect is often complicated by many other factors such as ischemiareperfusion injury, temperature, and perfusion pressure or duration. In evaluation of the effect of a solution on the coronary endothelial function, a number of points should be taken into consideration. First, the overall effect on endothelium should be identified. Second, the effect of the solution on the individual endothelium-derived relaxing factors (nitric oxide, prostacylin, and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor) must be distinguished. Third, the effect of each major component of the solution should be investigated. Fourth, the effect of a variety of new additives in the solution may be studied. In the last decades, we have focused our research on the endothelial function during open heart surgery and have for the first time found that high potassium concentration impairs the EDHF-mediated function. This review attempts to discuss the above issues based on available literature in order to provide information for further development of cardioplegic or organ preservation solutions.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of atorvastatin in the treatment of hypertension with unstable angi-na. METHODS:80 patients with hypertension with unstable angina were randomly divided into control group and treatment group. All patients were given anti-platelet aggregation and other conventional treatment;based on it,control group was orally treated with Amlodipine besylate tablet 5 mg,once a day+Metoprolol tartrate controlled-release tablet 25 mg,twice a day+Isosorbide dini-trate injection 10 ml by intravenous infusion,twice a day;treatment group was additionally treated with Atorvastatin calcium tablet 20 mg,orally,qd. 3 months was a treatment course,and it lasted 6 courses. Clinical efficacy,and systolic blood pressure,diastol-ic blood pressure,angina frequency and duration,changes of TC,TG,LDL,HDL levels before and after treatment and adverse reac-tions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:Total effective rate in treatment group was significantly higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). After treatment,systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in 2 groups were significantly lower or shorter than before,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05),however,there was no signifi-cant difference between 2 groups(P>0.05);angina frequency and duration were significantly lower than before,and treatment group was lower than control group,TC,TG and LDL in treatment group were significantly lower than before and control group, HDL was higher than before and control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05),there was no significant dif-ference between before and after treatment in control group(P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the adverse reactions between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Based on the conventional treatment, atorvastatin can effectively reduce the long-term angina frequency and duration of patients with hypertension with unstable angina,improve the ischemia myocardial and reduce the lipid levels with good safety.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of application timing of carboporst tromethamine on postpartum hemor-rhage and hemodynamics of cesarean section women with centralplacenta previa. METHODS:Totally 138 parturient women with central placenta previa selected from our hospital during Jan.-Dec. 2015 were divided into observation group and control group ac-cording to random number table,with 69 cases in each group. Both groups received cesarean section. Control group was given Car-boporst tromethamine injection 250 μg on uterine body after the delivery of placenta. Observation group was given Carboporst tro-methamine injection 250 μg on corpora uteri immediately after umbilical cord cutting. The operation duration,intraoperative and postoperative blood loss were observed in 2 groups. The preoperative and postoperative 24 h hemodynamic index,coagulation func-tion and corpora uteri were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The operation duration of observation group was significantly shorter than control group;intraoperative blood loss and 24h blood loss of observation group were significantly less than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in preoperative hemodynamic index and coagula-tion function index between 2 groups before surgery(P>0.05). 24 h after surgery,SBP,DBP,MAP,FIB and D-D of 2 groups were decreased significantly,while HR of them were increased significantly;the observation group was significantly better than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR (15.94% vs. 13.04%) between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Carboporst tromethamine after omphalotomy via uterine body helps to shorten the operation time,reduce intraoperative blood loss,maintain hemodynamic indexes stable and improve coagulation func-tion of cesarean section women with central placenta previa ,with good safety.

Objective To investigate whether acupuncture can prevent postoperative nauseaand vomiting (PONV)in patients received breast surgery. Methods Two hundred and forty patients were randomly divided into the acupuncture group and the control group. Patients in the acupuncture group were treated at bilateral Hegu (L4) and Neiguan (P6) after surgery. Patients in the control group received no any interventions. The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, the number of complete remission and the remedial treatment were record ed. Results The incidences of nausea and vomiting in the acupuncture group were lower than those in the control group from 2 h to 6 h post-operation, with less need of remedy treatment (P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion Acupuncture in preventing nausea and vomiting after breast surgery owns a certain value in the early postoperative (6 h) stage, with effectively reducing the occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

Objective To prepare mouse anti-human monoclonal antibodies against B7-H6 and to identify their biological characteristics. Methods The B7-H6 gene was cloned by RT-PCR from a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line ( A549 ) and then subcloned into the eukaryote expression vector pCMV3 to construct the recombinant vector pCMV3-B7-H6. The recombinant vector pCMV3-B7-H6 that was verified with enzyme digestion and gene sequencing was transfected into NIH/3T3 cells by electroporation. BALB/c mice were immunized with the successfully transfected cells named 2H8 through intraperitoneal injection. The monoclonal antibodies against human B7-H6 with the advantages of high affinity and specificity were pre-pared by using hybridoma technology. Western blot assay and flow cytometry analysis were used to identify the specificity of prepared monoclonal antibodies. Results The recombinant eukaryotic expression vector encoding B7-H6 was successfully constructed. Two hybridoma clones that stably secreted monoclonal anti-bodies against B7-H6 were screened out by using flow cytometry analysis and the monoclonal antibodies se-creted by them were belonged to IgG2a isotype. Specific reactions between B7-H6 and the secreted mono-clonal antibodies were confirmed by Western blot assay and flow cytometry analysis. Conclusion The mon-oclonal antibodies which recognized B7-H6 specifically were prepared successfully.
