Objective To investigate the effects of erythropoietin (EPO) on the number and function of peripheral blood endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) from rats with chronic renal failure (CRF). Methods The model of chronic renal failure was established by a two-stage 5/6nephrectomy procedure in rats. Experimental rats were randomly divided into four groups (n =7,respectively): sham operation group, CRF group, CRF rats treated with 30 U/kg EPO (low-dosage group) and with 50 U/kg EPO (high-dosage group). CRF rats were given EPO by hypodermic injection for 6 weeks, then EPCs were isolated by density gradient centrifugation from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The ability of cell proliferation, adhesion and vasculogenesis in vitro was further observed. Results Compared to sham operation group, the ability of cell proliferation,adhesion and vasculogenesis in vitro in CRF rats was remarkably decreased (P<0.05, respectively).Such ability was promoted significantly in dose-dependent manner by EPO treatment (P<0.05,respectively). Conclusion EPO can improve the number and ability of endothelial progenitor cells from rats with chronic renal failure.

Objective To explore the preparation of liposomal clodronate and investigate its inducing effects on the apoptosis of peritoneal macrophages in rats after severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods Liposomal clodronate was prepared by means of thin film. SAP rat model was established by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate into the pancreatic duct. The peritoneal macrophages were obtained from SAP rats. After exposure to different doses of liposomal clodronate (50, 100,150 μl), the PM proliferation was determined by MTT colourimetry. The apoptosis of PM was measured by flow cytometry and agarose gel electrophoresis, respectively. Results The prepared liposomal clodronate had a suitable encapsulation efficiency of clodronate (5.8%) with an average size of 200 nm. The spherical shape of liposome was confirmed by transmission electron microscope. Exposed to liposomal clodronate of different doses resulted in a obvious growth depression (P<0.01). The apoptotic rate of the PM was (10.32±0.34) %, (18.16±0.49)% and (29.87±0.35)% in three different dose groups and the difference was marked (P<0.01). 1.2% of agarose gel electrophoresis of DNA extracted from apoptotic macrophages induced by liposomal clodronate showed clearer and characteristic ladder following the liposomal clodronate concentration. Conclusion Liposomal clodronate has a definite effect on peritoneal macrophages in SAP rats.

Objective To explore the application of team-based learning (TBL) and problem-based learning (PBL) method in clinical teaching of laparoscopic surgery in general surgery. Methods 48 students of surgery in our department were selected as the subjects to conduct the clinical teaching study. These students were divided randomly into two groups. The experimental group (24 students) adopted the method that combined TBL and PBL method, while the control group (24 students) adopted the traditional teaching method. We compared the efficacy of two groups in term of theoretical knowledge, surgical practice, com-prehensive surgical grade, and questionnaire survey. Results The score of theoretical knowledge and sur-gical practice on clipping soybean and making suturation and instrumental tie of two groups were obviously higher than that before teaching. After finishing teaching, the score of experimental group on theoretical knowledge, making suturation and instrumental tie and comprehensive surgical grade were higher than that of control group. The score of clipping soybean was similar between two groups. In addition, in term of questionnaire survey on the consciousness of independent study, the depth and width of study, and satisfac-tions to teaching, the TBL and PBL group had a better score than the control group. Conclusion The new teaching method which combines TBL with PBL enhances the teaching effect on theoretical knowledge and laparoscopic surgery practice. It is an effective method to train medical students.
