Objective To explore the isolation,amplification methods and adipogenic differentiation under specific culture medium of human keloid-derived precursor cell (KPC) in vitro,in order to study their possibility of being new seed cells of tissue engineering fat.Methods KPCs were isolated from human keloid tissue of 4 different patients in our hospital and were cultured in the modified L-DMEM culture medium.Their cloning efficiency and growth curve were tested.The subcultured cells were tested of the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-related gene expression by flow cytometry.In addition,they were cultured in H-DMEM medium (containing 1 μmol/L dexamethasone,0.5 mmol/L 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xanthine 10 mg/L of bovine insulin,100 mmol/L indomethacin,and 10 ％ FBS)and were later observed in oil red O staining under phase contrast microscope to determine whether lipid droplets generation was formed,using skin-derived precursors (SKP) as control.Results More than 95 ％ KPC expressed many antigens of MSC,such as CD29,CD44,CD90 and CD105 while few of them expressed CD34,CD45(1.0 ％-2.5 ％).And the cells increased in size gradually after inducted the same time,changing from spindle into round or polygonal in shape.The lipid droplets were seen in 72 hours and expressed a positive rate of 78.6 ％ in Day 19 in oil red O staining while the same rate was 54.6 ％ in SKP.Conclusions Human keloid-derived precursor cells can express a variety of MSC-related surface markers without expressing hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) related markers.Furthermore,they can be differentiated into fat cells under certain conditions,which may make them as a new source of seed cells for tissue engineering fat.

Objective To study the clinical value of acoustic radiation force impulse imaging (ARFI) in patients with ischemic type biliary lesion (ITBL) after orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods Between July 2012 to January 2013, forty-one patients in General Hospital of the People′s Liberation Army were enrolled in this study who were admitted for post-transplantation follow-up. Among them, 15 patients were diagnosed as ITBL by ultrasonography. Besides conventional ultrasonography, ARFI was used to detect the shear wave velocity (SWV) of liver tissue at depth of 4 cm and 5 cm respectively. Simultaneously liver function test was performed. Independent-samples t test was performed to compare the difference of SWV between ITBL and non-ITBL group at the same depth. Paired-sample t test was performed to compare the difference of SWV for the same ITBL patient. Pearson correlation analysis was used in analyzing the relation between SWV and liver function. Results The average SWV in depth of 4 cm was (1.561±0.425) m/s and (1.121±0.160) m/s in ITBL and non-ITBL group, respectively. Signiifcant differences were found among the ITBL and non-ITBL groups (t=-3.173, P=0.01). The average SWV in depth of 5 cm was (1.608±0.545) m/s and (1.175±0.173) m/s in ITBL and non-ITBL group, respectively. Signiifcant differences were found among the ITBL and non-ITBL groups (t=-2.454, P=0.034). There was no signiifcant difference between SWV measurements at different depth for the same ITBL patient. For all patients, SWV at different depths were both strongly correlated with alkaline phosphatase (r=0.656, 0.667, respectively;both P=0.000) andγ-glutamyl transpeptidase (r=0.482, P=0.007;r=0.508, P=0.004). Conclusion The liver stiffness measurement is valuable for the clinical evaluation of post-transplantation ITBL.

Objective To study haemostatic percutaneous injection therapy for the management of vascular damage in patients with renal injuries guided by contrast-enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS).Methods Which of 56 patients with renal trauma were diagnosis by CEUS,37 cases with grades Ⅱ-Ⅳ renal injuries were brought into our study.According to wound degree and accompanying active bleeding,they were divided into experiment group (percutaneous injection hemostatic treatment)and control group(conservative treatment).Results Thirty-seven renal trauma manifest low perfusion in lesions by CEUS,and the contrast agent could be seen overflow to renal pelvi and the location of capsule in 13 patients.The patients were divided into experiment group(17 cases)and control group(20 cases).The color of hematuria of 9 patients in experiment group became gradually light at 30 mins after treatment.and the color of 7 cases become normal,and hematuria of the only one was iterative appear.The color of hematuria of 9 patients in control group became gradually light in 24-72 hours,others' hematuria became gradually light in 5-14 days.The time of color of hematuria become light of the former was shorter than those of the latter(P<0.05).Reexamination by ultrasound and renal function and urine routine at 1,3 and 6 months after treatment,the results of all patients indicated normal.Conclusions Haemostatic percutaneous injection therapy for renal trauma guided by contrast-enhanced ultrasonography has very obvious hemostatic efficacy.Its advantages included may be used for effective,minimally invasive control of renal injuries(grades Ⅱ-Ⅳ),and can be a feasible management of active bleeding at bedside.

Objective To develop a model of type 2 diabetes with early renal injury on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Methods The 6-week old SHR were fed with the diets enriched with sucrose (20%, W/W), lard (10%, W/W), cholesterol (2.5%, W/W) and chleolate (1%, W/W) to induce insulin resistance. Hyperglycemia was developed by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 35 mg/kg). Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) were used as normal controls. Rats with plasma glucose (PGL) ≥ 16.7 mmol/L were diagnosed as diabetes. Eight weeks after the induction of diabetes, plasma triglyceride (TG), cholesterol (CHO), glucose, systolic pressure(SP), 24-h urine protein excretion (Upro) were examined in all the rats, and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was analyzed. Renal pathological changes were studied by immunohistochemical staining and electron microscope. Results After 2 weeks on the high sucrose and fat diets, the model rats exhibited significant increase in basal PGL, TG and CHO levels as compared to control rats (P<0.05, respectively). The insulin resistance was developed in model rats demonstrated by the higher HOMA-IR (5.03±0.38 vs 2.61±0.34, P<0.05). At the end of the experiment, model rats were associated with hypertension. Upro level was significantly increased in model rats compared with that in controls [(57.58±16.54) mg/24 h vs (5.35±1.90) mg/24 h, P<0.01]. The kidney hypertrophy index (KWI) was significantly increased in the model rats compared to controls (P <0.05). Moreover, the diabetic model rats showed glomerular hypertrophy, foot process effacement, micro villous transformation, glomerular basement membrane (GBM) thickening. Conclusion A rat model is successfully established, which presents typical features of human type 2 diabetes and can be served as an ideal model to study the diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To study feasibility of combined haemostatic percutaneous injection therapy guided by contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in treatment of renal injuries. Methods Eighteen New Zealand rabbits were inflicted with kidney injury imitating grades Ⅲ-Ⅳ blunt injuries. The animals were randomly and equally divided into three groups, Group A ( treated with hemocoagulase),Group B ( treated with hemocoagulase and Alpha-cyanoacrylate) and Group C ( control group, given normal saline). The hemostatic time, hemostatic effect, and perirenal hematoma were observed. Results A perirenal hematoma was observed one hour after treatment. The perirenal fluid thickness was (0.200 ±0.012) cm in Group A, (0.050 ±0.002) cm in Group B and (0.400 ±0.009) cm in Group C, with statistical significance between two test groups and Group C (P ＜ 0.05 ). At days 7 and 14 following treatment, lesion length and cross section was ( 1. 107 ±0. 143) cm and (0.433 ±0. 163) cm in Group A, (0.567 ±0.082) cm and (0. 160 ±0. 078) cm in Group B, and (0.980 ±0. 203) cm and (0.686 ± 0. 157) cm in Group C. There was statistical significance between the test groups (Groups A and B) and Group C (P＜0. 01) at day 14. The lesion size in Group A was lager than that in Group B (P ＜ 0.01 ). One month after treatment, a slight nephrohydrosis occurred in Group B. Conclusions Either injection of simple hemocoagulase or combined use of hemocoagulase and Alpha-cyanoacrylate guided by CEUS can attain positive hemostatic effect, but the latter one is more rapid and reliable.

Objective:To summarize the results and methods of surgical treatment for type A aortic dissection with small true lumen of the descending aorta.Methods:9 patients underwent surgical treatment for type A aortic dissection with small true lumen of the descending aorta between January 2017 and December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 7 males and 2 females, mean age of (41.6±9.2) years. Acute dissection were 2 cases, and chronic dissection were 7 cases. Preoerative computed tomography was used to diagnose the dissection and evaluate the true lumen of the descending aorta. This procedure was done in all patients via a median sternotomy under hypothermic CPB with SCP. 4-branched prosthetic graft was used to replace the ascending aorta and aortic arch. The procedures involving the descending aorta: Hybrid surgery using TEVAR. Distal intimal flap fenestration. Implanting the intraoperative stent-graft or prosthetic graft at false lumen for second-step operation.Results:There was no in-hospital mortality. Stroke, Spinal cord, visceral ischemia and lower limbs malfunction were not observed. Reintervention was not found in case with acute dissection during follow-up. One patient who reveived fenestration underwent TEVAR, others with chronic dissection underwent thoracoabdominal aortic replacement 3 months after surgery.Conclusion:Hybrid or staged procedures was a suitable alternative to patients with type A aortic dissection with small true lumen of the descending aorta.
