BACKGROUND:Drug therapy can partly reduce and delay the progress of Alzheimer’s disease, but only 30%with the single drug treatment obtain clinical cure. OBJECTIVE:To study the therapeutic effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s transplantation for rats with Alzheimer’s disease. METHODS:Amyloidβ-protein was injected into the hippocampus of Sprague-Dawley rats to construct the model of Alzheimer’s disease. And bone marrow stromal stem cel s were transplanted into the hippocampus of the rat models. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 2 weeks after modeling, compared with the control group, the escape latency in the model and experimental groups was significantly longer (P<0.05), which indicating that Alzheimer’s disease models were successful y established. At 4 weeks after cel transplantation, compared with the model group, the average escape latency in the experimental group was significantly decreased, but retention time on the platform quadrant was significantly prolonged (P<0.05). Besides, at 4 weeks after cel transplantation, expression of choline acetyltransferase in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the model group (P<0.05). In conclusion, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s cannot only differentiate and survive in the hippocampus of rats with Alzheimer’s disease, but also improve the learning and memory ability.

Objective To explore the clinical features of methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) in children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit, to help improve our understanding of MMA. Methods The clinical data of 21 patients with MMA admitted to our PICU from December 2012 to August 2016 were analyzed. Diagnosis were confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, GC/MS. Results twenty-four of 158 suspected cases were confirmed as having organic acidemia diseases including 21 cases of MMA, one case of propionic acidemia, one case of urea cycle disorders, and one case of glutaric acidemia. The main clinical manifestations were feeding difficulty, malnutrition (13 cases), developmental retardation (12 cases), lethargy (10 cases), tricuspid severe reflux and pulmonary hypertension (1 case), hydrocephaly (5 cases), muscular dystonia (three cases with hypertonia, and four with hypotonia), convulsion (7 cases), apnea, sobbing respiration (10 cases), chromatosis (6 cases), anemia (13 cases), edema (6 cases), thrombocytopenia (6 cases), hematuria and proteinuria (2 cases). Five cases gave up therapy before diagnosis was made. Sixteen cases received the treatment with Vitamin B12 and supplementation of L-carnitine. Seven cases gave up after treatment without effect or deterioration of condition. Eight cases were vitamin B12-responsive, and one case was vitamin B12-nonresponsive. The follow-up for a period ranging from three months to two years, among eight vitamin B12-responsive cases, 6 cases showed a favorable outcome with apparent improvement, one case had no symptom and one patient died from severe pneumonia. Vitamin B12-nonresponsive case was still alive. Conclusions The clinical manifestations of MMA are non-specific. Urine organic acid analysis is critical to early diagnosis of MMA in high-risk patients. Timely diagnosis and appropriate long-term treatment are essential to improve the prognosis of the disease.

Objective To explore the frequencies of MPL exon 10 mutations in JAK2 V617F-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms patients. Methods MPLW515K/L was processed through allele-specific PGR combined with direct sequence analysis. The mutations of others MPL exon 10 were detected by single strand conformation polymorphism PGR (PCR-SSCP) combined with direct sequencing. Results Of the 103 patients with JAK2 V617F-negtive myeloproliferative neoplasms patients, 1 carried MPLW515K mutation (TGG→AAG)in PMF; 1 was found to have new mutation (CTGGTGATCGCT insert) in ET and have homozygous mutation. Conclusion JAK2 V617F-negtive myeloproliferative neoplasms patients carried additional mutations in addition to W515K/L mutations in MPL exon 10, but its frequency of mutation is low.

Objective To study the relationship of abnormal family history in the first degree relatives and the clinical phenotype of patients with polyeystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods Clinical data of first degree relatives of 139 women with PCOS were collected by questionnaires,including body mass index(BMI),waist hip ratio(WHR),and hursutism score.Follicle stimulating hormone(FSH), luteinizing hormone(LH),prolactin(PRL),testosterone(T),androstenedione(A),oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT)and insulin releasing test were measured.Results(1)Compared with patients with a negative family history of diabetes mellitus,for women with a positive family history,WHR(0.99?0.10 vs 0.79?0.08)and score of hirsutism(1.9?1.2 vs 1.8?1.2)were increased,the duration of menstruation was longer[(108?10)vs(92?19)days];A[(11?6)vs(8?5)nmol/L],homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR,3.5?2.0 vs 2.7?1.6),area under curve(AUC) glucose[(836?245)vs(748?139)nmol?L~(-1)?min~(-1)],AUC insulin[(9670?4582)vs(7330?4311) mIU?L~(-1)?min~(-1)],fasting glucose[(5.0?1.1)vs(4.8?0.5)mmol/L]and fasting insulin[(15?8)vs (11?8)mIU/L]were increased,while early insulin secretion function index(?I60/?G60,32?22 vs 52?30),insulin sensitive index(ISI,0.019?0.011 vs 0.033?0.014)and disposition index(DI,18? 10 vs 30?22;P
9. Electroacupuncture of Multiple Acupoints Is Significantly Superior to That of Single Acupoint in Improving Sleep by Regulating Serum Sleep-promoting and Awakening-promoting Factors in Insomnia Rats
Acupuncture Research 2018;43(10):651-656
OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation of single and multiple acupoints on sleep and concentrations of interlukin-1 β(IL-1 β), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), prostaglandin D2(PGD2) and melatonin (MLT, sleep-promoting factors) and corticosterone (CORT, awakening-promoting factor) in the serum in insomnia rats, so as to explore its efficacy difference and the mechanism underlying improving sleep. METHODS: Fifty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into control, model, EA-Baihui (GV 20), EA-Shenmen (HT 7), EA-Sanyinjiao (SP 6) and EA-GV 20+HT 7+SP 6 groups (n=9 rats in each group). The insomnia model was established by intraperitoneal injection of para-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA, 300 mg/kg) once daily for 2 days. In the EA-GV 20, EA-HT 7, EA-SP 6 and EA-GV 20+HT 7+SP 6 groups, EA stimulation was administrated for 30 min, once a day for 4 days. The sleep onset latency and sleep duration were measured after intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium (35 mg/kg). The concentrations of IL-1 β, BDNF, MLT, PGD2and CORT in the serum were detected by ELISA. RESULTS: After EA stimulation of GV 20, HT 7, SP 6 and GV 20+HT 7+SP 6, the sleep latency was significantly shortened (P<0.05, P<0.01, except SP 6), and the sleep duration was remarkably prolonged in comparison with the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the therapeutic effects of EA-GV 20+HT 7+SP 6 were significantly superior to those of EA-GV 20, EA-HT 7 and EA-SP 6 in shortening the sleep latency and lengthening the sleep duration (P<0.05). Following modeling, the concentrations of IL-1 β, BDNF, PGD2 and MLT were significantly down-regulated, and the CORT level was markedly up-regulated in the model group relevant to the control group (P<0.05). Following EA,modeling induced dramatic decrease of serum IL-1 β, BDNF, PGD2 and MLT was considerably up-regulated, and the increased CORT level markedly down-regulated in the EA-GV 20, EA-HT 7, EA-SP 6 and EA-GV 20+HT 7+SP 6 groups (P<0.05). The effects of EA-GV 20+HT 7+SP 6 were evidently superior to those of EA-GV 20 and EA-SP 6 in up-regulating serum IL-1 β, BDNF and PGD2levels, and to those of HT 7, GV 20 and SP 6 in up-regulating serum MLT level, and significantly superior to those of EA-ST 7 and EA-SP 6 in down-regulating serum CORT (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: EA stimulation of HT 7, GV 20, SP 6 and GV 20+HT 7+ SP 6 can significantly improve the sleep in insomnia rats, which is closely associated with its effects in regulating serum sleep-promoting factors and awakening-promoting factor. Joint administration of EA of GV 20+HT 7+ SP 6 has a better effect than the single acupoint mentioned above.
