Mesenchymal stem cells is another adult stem cells in bone marrow apart from hematopoietic stem cells.Because of their strong self-renewal capacity and the potential of multi-lineage differentiation.mesenehymal stem cells are used more and more in the treatment of malignant diseases,such as hematological malignant diseases and extensively applied in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.However,the exact role of mesenehymal stem cells on tumor is not completely clear.This review is about the impact of mesenchymal stem cells on tumor growth and the related mechanism.

Granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a muhifunctional growth factor. It stimulates the proliferation, differemiation and maturity of hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC), and transfers from bone marrow to periphery, inducing multiple cell proliferation or differentiation. In recent years, some studies have indicated that GM-CSF plays an important role in anti-apoptosis, inducing neuronal differentiation and angiogenesis, which will he a new supplement to the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease. This article reviews the effects of GM-CSF in the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Objective To evaluate the arc renal parenchyma incision of pelvis within renal sinus and renal posterior lib for the removal of complex staghorn renal calculi.Methods Arc renal parenchyma incision of pelvis within renal sinus and renal posterior lib was performed to remove stones in 86 cases (97 sides) with complex staghorn renal calculi.Among the 86 cases,42 had stones on the right side;33,on the left side;11,on bilateral sides.Seventeen cases had concomitantly calculi in the ureter,and 54 had calculi in upper and mid calyx or multiple renal calculi.As for comorbidity,11 cases had hypertensions;4,diabetes; and 5,hepatitis B.Twenty-five cases had renal insufficiency,with BUN of 12.3 -76.0mmol/L and Cr of 231 -1721?mol/L.The procedure was performed as follows:the kidney was dissected free and the pelvis within renal sinus was isolated.Two rows of bottom style sutures were made on the renal parenchyma with 2-0 plain catgut along mid-lower 1/3 of the dorsal surface of kidney free of vessels from the renal posterior lib to the plane of lower major calyx.The renal parenchyma was opened.Then,the incision was developed from the plane of lower through the middle major calyx to the plane of upper major calyx.The renal parenchyma and mid-low calyx along the incision were opened,suturing while incising,so that all the stones could be easily removed with hook.Results The calculi were completely removed in all 86 cases (97 sides).The opera- tive time was 105-187min ( mean,129min).The intraoperative blood loss was 120-460 ml ( mean,220 ml).Forty-three cases needed intraoperative blood transfusion of 120 -200 ml (mean,140 ml).One month after operation,KUB+IVU and ultrasonic findings were normal with improved hydronephrosis,no intrarenal stricture and no residual calculi.Conclusions This procedure has the advantages of less bleeding,slight impairment of renal function,simple handling,clear operative field,high clearance rate,therefore is indica- ted for the removal of complex staghorn calculi.

Objective To explore the function of fluorescent probe JC-1 in detecting the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential(△?m)in early apoptotic cells.Methods After 2-ME was used to induce MUTZ-1 cell apoptosis,cells were dyed with fluorescent probe JC-1,and then the changes of △?m in the early stage of apoptotic cells were analyzed by flow cytometry or detected under fluorescent microscope. Results The control cells with high △?m are those forming JC-1 aggregates in the inner membrane of mitochondria,thus showing orange-red fluorescence.2-ME caused decrease of △?m in MUTZ-1 cells,in which JC-1 maintains monomeric form,thus showing only green fluorescence.The decreases of △?m were in a time-dependent manner,which were significantly higher than those in control group(P

OBJECTIVETo investigate the pathological diagnostic features and the differential diagnosis of radial sclerosing lesions of the breast.

METHODSMorphological observation and immunohistochemistry were applied to forty-four cases of radial sclerosing lesions of the breast.

RESULTSAll forty-four patients were females, the mean age was 40.3 years (range 17 to 54 years). In the 31 consultation cases, 13 were misdiagnosed as carcinoma. The lesions had a radiating outline, and a central scar area where squeezed or pressed irregular shaped tubules were frequently seen. Dilated tubules and proliferated ducts or lobules were seen radically arranged at the periphery accompanied sometimes with the apocrine glands or columnar cell metaplasia and hyperplasia. Aside, there were 14 cases displaying necroses and 8 cases showing atypical ductal hyperplasia. Immunostaining showed myoepithelial cells around the pseudo-infiltrating tubules, and the florid proliferating epithelial cells were positive for CK5/6.

CONCLUSIONSRadial sclerosing lesions of the breast possess characteristic histological features, and may be misdiagnosed as carcinoma. The lesions should be differentiated from ductal carcinoma in situ, lobular neoplasia, tubular carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma.

AlM: To examine the retinal nerve fiber layer ( RNFL ) changes in early primary open angle glaucoma ( POAG ) by comparing the superior half of the optic disc with the inferior disc half.METHODS: lt was a clinical observational study. The study included 30 patients ( 39 eyes ) with POAG and 20 normal subjects ( 40 eyes ) . Visual field was tested by Zeiss Humphrey750 and the optic disc topographic parameters and RNFL thickness were measured by Zeiss Cirru HD-OCT. Collecting information included visual field mean defect ( MD ) , glaucoma hemifield test ( GHT ) , intraocular pressure ( lOP ) , C/D ratio and RNFL thickness. Data were analyzed by statistic software SPSS18. 0. The differences between two groups were assessed using t test.RESULTS: The differences of superior RNFL minus inferior RNFL thichness on the corresponding clock-hour locations were caculated in two groups. There was a significant difference in superonasal- inferonasal RNFL thickness between two groups (t=2. 526, P=0. 014), and there were no significant differences in the others ( all P>0. 05).CONCLUSlON: The asymmetry of optic disc hemifield RNFL is found in early primary open angle glaucoma patients. The superonasal RNFL ( 1 o’clock for right eye, and 11 o’clock for left eye ) is more fragile to loss than inferonasal RNFL (5 o’clock for right eye, and 7 o’clock for left eye) .
