BACKGROUND:Placental mesenchymal stem cels are becoming a new source of seed cels because of wide range of sources, low immunogenicity and not involving ethical issues.
OBJECTIVE:To elaborate the sources, biological characteristics and latest application of placental mesenchymal stem cels.
METHODS:Literature search was performed in PubMed, ScienceDirect, OvidSP, CNKI databases for relevant literatures published from 2003 to 2015. The key words were “placenta, mesenchymal stem cels, placenta mesenchymal stem cels, cel transplantation, application mechanism” in Chinese and English, respectively. Then, 57 papers were further analyzed and reviewed in line with the theme.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Placental mesenchymal stem cels have been isolated and cultured successfuly, and confirmed to have multi-differentiation potential. A large number of placental mesenchymal stem cels have been used in the experimental animal and clinical researches, and they have a great potential in bone tissue engineering, revascularizaion and nerve repair. However, the specific mechanism underlying the application of placental mesenchymal stem cels is not clear. In order to ensure the safety and effectiveness, there are stil many problems to be further studied before placental mesenchymal stem cels are widely used in clinic.

Objective To explore an effective evaluation method for students' self-and peer-assess-ment. Methods The students of 6 groups participating in extracurricular teaching activities were selected as research subject. Traditional method (final score = mean score of group/2 + teacher's score/2) and mean difference method [final score=teacher's score-(mean difference of group-mean difference of all groups)] were used to calculate final score of each group, and effect of two methods were compared. Results Scores of most groups were higher than the teacher's scores, and high scores were given by group 3 in self- and peer-assessment. The final score of all groups were higher than teacher's scores in traditional method. Compared with teacher's scores, final scores increased significantly in group 1, 4, 5 below mean difference, final score decreased significantly in group 2, 3 above mean difference, and final score did not differ in group 6 equal to mean difference in mean difference method. Conclusion The mean difference method can reflect the effect of student's self- and peer-assessment, and guide student to make objective and accurate evaluation. It is a more reasonable and scientific evaluation method for self-and peer-assessment.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of panax notoginsenosides (PNS) on the proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) in mice with immune-mediated aplastic anemia.
METHODSBalb/c mice model of immune-mediated aplastic anemia was established by radiation with sublethal dose of 60Co following the intravenously infusing lymphocytes of DBA/2 mice. Model mice in the treated groups were treated separately with high, middle and low dose of PNS, 3.2 mg, 1.6 mg and 0.8 mg per day respectively by intraperitoneal injection. Model mice in the control group and normal mice in the normal control group were treated with normal saline. The peripheral white blood cell (WBC) count and pathological examination of bone marrow were carried out 12 days later, the bone marrow was taken to be incubated in semi-solid culture system for observing proliferation of HPC.
RESULTSPNS could (1) increase peripheral WBC count: as compared with that in the model control, WBC in the high, middle and low dose PNS groups was raised by (34.3 +/- 2.9)%, (29.2 +/- 1.7)% and (14.5 +/- 1.6)% respectively, P < 0.01 and P < 0.05; (2) improve the bone marrow inhibition: pathological examination showed in the model group, the hematopoietic structure was destroyed and replaced by fatty tissue, while in the PNS treated groups, the structure of marrow was rather complete and filled with abundant hematopoietic cells; (3) promote the proliferation of HPC: as compared with the model group, the colony formation of CFU-GM were increased by (64.4 +/- 2.8)%, (67.3 +/- 2.4)% and (21.9 +/- 1.8)% respectively and that of CFU-E increased by (31.9 +/- 3.6)%, (20.7 +/- 2.4)% and (12.8 +/- 2.6)% respectively in the three PNS treated group (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONPNS could enhance hematopoiesis by promoting proliferation of CFU-GM and CFU-E progenitors so as to improve the hematopoietic function in mice of immune-mediated aplastic anemia.

10.Effect of trihydroxybenzoic acid dimmer on induction of apoptosis of HL-60 cells.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2009;44(1):42-47
Trihydroxybenzoic acid dimmer is an anti-tumor compound which is separated from water-caltrop. This study is aimed to investigate its anti-proliferation effect on HL-60 cells and the possible mechanism of inducing apoptosis. MTT assay was used to test HL-60 cells proliferation. The apoptosis, ROS levels and the mitochondrial membrane potential were detected by flow cytometry. Cytochrome c released from mitochondria to cytosol fraction was detected by Western blotting. The activity of Caspase-9 and Caspase-3 were measured by colorimetric method. It was found to inhibit HL-60 cells proliferation in a dose and time-dependent manner. Compared with control group, it caused the increase of ROS levels and a concomitant dissipation of the mitochondrial membrane potential and induced cytosolic accumulation of cytochrome c and activities Caspase-9 and Caspase-3. Therefore it can be concluded that mitochondrial-dependent pathways was involved in its induction of apoptosis of HL-60 cells.
