BACKGROUND: Various factors contribute to the establishment of liver transplantation models in rhesus monkey, the rate of successful operation and long-term survival are very low. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the cause of early death following liver transplantation in rhesus monkey. METHODS: Liver transplantation models were fabricated with the classical and modified methods in rhesus monkeys. Operation of donor was performed quickly by a big crucial incision of abdomen. The improved double-cuff of the portal vein and inferior vena cava were finished, in addition to stay pipe of biliary tract in the process of repairing donor liver. Operation of the receptor was performed by classical orthotopic liver transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 25 pairs of rhesus monkeys were successfully for establishing liver transplantation models. Seven rhesus monkeys died within early stage of post-operation, including six out of nine monkeys died by using the classical approach and one out of sixteen monkeys died by using the improved approach. There were five of seven monkeys died of intra-abdominal hemorrhage, one died of primary graft nonfunction and one died of respiratory failure. Results indicated that, the major death cause after classical orthotopic liver transplantation in rhesus monkey is abdominal hemorrhage. The improved methods of liver transplantation apparently reduce the hemorrhage and raise early survival rate following liver transplantation.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical efficacy and safety of acupuncture and moxibustion for copracrasia.

METHODSBy prospective live randomized controlled trial, 40 cases with copracrasia were randomly divided into an acupuncture-moxibustion group and a medication group, 20 cases in each one. In the acupuncture-moxibustion group, acupuncture was applied at Ciliao (BL 32), Changqiang (GV 1) and Tianshu (ST 25) and mild moxibustion was used at Qihai (CV 6). Treatment was given for 12 weeks and 32 times, 3 times a week in the front 8 weeks, 2 times a week in the latter 4 weeks. In the medication group, conventional symptomatic treatment, support therapy, and complications preventing and treating were adopted for 12 weeks. Anal incontinence score (Vaizey incontinence score), effective rate and self-rating score for satisfaction were observed before and after treatment and in the follow-up period.

RESULTSAfter 12 weeks' treatment in the two groups, Vaizey incontinence' scores were both decreased (both P<0. 05), and after treatment and in the follow-up period the scores in the acupuncture-moxibustion group were lower than those in the corresponding period in the medication group (both P< 0. 05). The effective rate of the acupuncture-moxibustion group was 80. 0% (16/20), which was statistically different from 50. 0% (10/20) in the medication group (P<0. 05). The effective rate in the follow-up period of the acupuncture-moxibustion group was 90. 0% (18/20) and it was not statistically different from 80. 0% (16/20) in the medication group (P>0. 05). The self-rating scores for satisfaction in the acupuncture-moxibustion group were superior to those in the medication group after treatment and in the follow-up period (both P< 0. 05).

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture and moxibustion could improve copracrasia and the acupuncture-moxibustion rules and characteristics for the disorder should be paid attention to in the further research.

The aim of this study is to identify the express specificity of bone morphogenetic protein 15 (Bmp15) in porcine. The pBMP15-EGFP reporter vector was constructed from the 2.2 kb fragment of porcine bmp15 promoter to trace the differentiation process of stem cells into oocyte-like cells. We used porcine ovary and Chinese Hamster Ovary cell line (CHO), mouse myoblast cell line (C2C12) and porcine amniotic fluid stem cell (pAFSC) to investigate the expression and regulation of this gene via RT-PCR, immunofluorescence, cell transfection, and microinjection methods. We also used single layer cell differentiation to detect the application potential of bmp15. The results show that bmp15 gene was specifically expressed in the porcine ovary and CHO rather than in C2C12 and pAFSC. In addition, the characteristic of tissue-specific of Bmp15 was detected on CHO instead of other cell lines by transient transfection. We also detected the expression of Bmp15 in oocyte at different development stages by immunofluorescence of fixed paraffin-embedded ovary sections. Furthermore, microinjection results show that bmp15 expressed in oocytes at 18 h of maturation in vitro, and continued up to 4-cell stage embryos. Most importantly, we found that the expression of Bmp15 started at day 12 after inducing pAFSC into oocyte-like cells by transfection; green fluorescent was visible in round cell masses. It indicated that bmp15 has the expression specificity and the pBMP15-EGFP reporter vector can be used to trace Bmp15 action in the differentiation of stem cells into germ cells.

Objective:To investigate the expression of sal-like 4 (SALL4) gene in children with acute leukemia and analyze its clinical significance. Methods:Real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry were used to detect SALL4 mRNA and SALL4 protein ex-pressions in 50 patients initially diagnosed with acute leukemia and in 15 patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), which served as controls. Changes were detected in SALL4 mRNA expression from preliminary diagnosis and after complete remission of 5 acute leukemia patients. The relationship between SALL4 mRNA expression and clinical indicators was analyzed. Results: SALL4 mRNA expression is higher in initially diagnosed B-ALL [13.89 (1.00-63.15)] and AML [11.12 (2.31-56.59)] than in ITP controls [1.00 (0.29-1.71)] (P<0.01). SALL4 mRNA expression in initially diagnosed T-ALL [1.48 (0.87-4.81)] and in controls showed no significant difference (P>0.05). SALL4 protein expression is in agreement with SALL4 mRNA expression. SALL4 mRNA expression significant-ly decreased in complete remission stage [0.98 (0.22-1.09)] than in acute phase [28.64 (11.20-87.46)] in acute-leukemia patients (P<0.01). High SALL4 mRNA expression level is positively correlated with high white blood cell count, high risk classification, and high minimal-residual disease at the end of induction chemotherapy (r=0.424, r=0.40, and r=0.393, respectively;P<0.05), but not with age, gender, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, and lymphadenectasis (P>0.05). Conclusion:SALL4 was found to play an important role in pro-moting childhood B-ALL and AML, which promises a new target for monitoring the therapeutic effects and evaluating the prognosis of childhood B-ALL and AML.
