Objective To investigate the application value of intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) in living donor liver transplantation(LDLT). Methods In LDLT, IOUS techniques (gray scale ultrasound and color Doppler flow imaging) were adopted in 26 donors and recipients for parenchymal and vascular examinations. The abnormal sonograms were observed, and the anatomic findings of hepatic veins were recorded. All the reanastomosed blood vessels were examined by gray scale ultrasound and color Doppler flow imaging before the operations were completed. Results A hepatic parenchymatous tumor was revealed by IOUS in one donor. Besides, middle hepatic veins in 13 donors and secondary hepatic veins with diameter﹥0.5 cm in 5 donors were confirmed by IOUS. Furthermore, one operation procedure was changed and one hepatic artery stenosis was established according to IOUS findings. Conclusion IOUS is a very useful means in evaluation of parenchymal and vascular conditions of donors and recipients in LDLT, which helps to select the best cross section and provides evidence for the change of surgical procedures.

Breast cancer,with a high incidence rate,is one of the malignant cancers that threatens women health.Clinically,methods such as image examinations,needle aspiration cytology and pathology are used in its early diagnosis and treatment.However,the genetic heterogeneity of breast cancer has made patients in the same pathological stage respond differently to clinical treatment.So it ia important to formulate a molecular and genetictyping method which can accurately reflect the clinical types and prognoses of breast cancer.This paper reviews the research on gene chips applied to molecular and genetic typing methods of breast cancer and also discusses their applications in individualized treatment.typing method which can accurately reflect the clinical types and prognoses of breast cancer.This paper reviews the research on gene chips applied to molecular and genetic typing methods of breast cancer and also discusses their applications in individualized treatment.

Objective To determine the occurrence rate of liver toxicity and related risk factors after receiving highly active an-tiretroviral-therapy(HAART)by the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibittor.Methods To observe the changes of liver func-tion indexes before and after antiviral therapy in 102 patients receiving HAART,the incidence rates of the liver toxicity were com-pared between nevirapine(NVP)and efavirenz(EFV)and the risk factors of liver toxicity after treatment were analyzed.Results A-mong 102 patients,73 cases accepted the treatment of NVP,the incidence rate of hepatotoxicity was 35.6%,29 cases accepted the treatment of EFV,the incidence rate of hepatotoxicity was 13.8%,the hepatotoxicity incidence rate had statistically significant difference between the two treatment methods(χ2 =4.761,P =0.029).Co-infected by hepatitis C virus(HCV)and baseline ALT el-evation were the independent risk factors of hepatotoxicity occurrence(P <0.05).Conclusion The patients receiving the treatment of NVP are more likely to have hepatotoxicity than the patients receiving the treatment of EFV.Co-infected by HCV and baseline ALT elevation are the independent risk factors of hepatotoxicity occurrence.

Objective To evaluate the diagnosis value of urodynamics in patients with benign prostate hypertrophy(BPH).Method With urodynamic device,the full set of urodynamic exam was administrated in 427 patients with BPH,and the externalsphincter urethral myogram was monitored simultaneously in pressure-flow studies(PFS).The umdynamic finding such as Q_(max),P_(det)-Q_(max),DS(descending slope)and post-voiding residual(PVR)were recorded,as well as the situation of bladder detrusor constraction and bladder compliance and urethral sphincter coodination.The bladder outflow obstruction was diagnosed by A-G nomogram,P-Q plot and DS.The IPSS score and prostate volume were also acquired.Results The diagnostic rate of BOO is 81.5%,among them concomitantly detrusor muscle impair in 117 cases (27.4%),decreased bladder compliance in 162 case(37.9%),urethral sphincter dyssynergia in 148 cases(34.7%),and unstable bladder in 164 cases(38.4%).The increase degree of BOO show an increasing tendency with urodynamic finding such as Q_(max),P_(det)-Q_(max),P_(open),DS,IPSS score and prostatic volume respectively,but a decreasing tendency with Q_(max) and bladder compliance.Conclusions The urodynamic exam plays an important role in diagnosis of BOO.There is a positive relation among degree of BOO with urodynamic findings such as P_(det)-Q_(max),P_(open),DS and IPSS score and prostatic volume,however,a negative relation with Qmax and bladder compliance respectively.

Objective To evaluate in vivo tracking of swine mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) la-beled with super paramagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) in intraportal transplantation by a clinical 1.5T MR.Methods MSCs were isolated from swine and cultured as well as expanded, which were then incuba-ted with SPIO (Feridex I. V.). Prussian blue staining was performed for showing intracelluar irons.To establish a swine model of acute liver necrosis, 0.5 g/kg of D-galactosamine was administrated to 10 pigs. MSCs(labeled cells in six, unlabeled cells in four)were injected into liver via portal veins. MR imaging was performed with a clinical 1.5T MR immediately before and at 6 h, 3 d, 7 d, 14 d after transplantation, respectively. Results Prussian blue staining of SPIO labeled MSCs could be effec-tively labeled and the labeling efficiency was almost 100%. Signal intensity loss in liver by SPIO labe-ling on FFE sequence persisted until 14 days after transplantation. Histological analysis by Prussian blue staining showed homing of labeled MSCs in liver after 14 days, primarily distributing in hepatic sinusoids and liver parenchyma. Conclusion MSCs can be labeled with SPIO in vitro successfully.MRI can monitor magnetically labeled MSCs transplanted into liver.

Objective:To investigate the expression pattern of Mtsl/S100A4 in mouse spinal cord;to investigate the effects of Mtsl/S100A4 on glial cell responses.Method:The study was carried out on Mtsl/S100A4 wild type and knock-out mice.The degenerative spinal cord model was established by dorsal root or sciatic nerve injury.The de-myelinated spinal cord model was established by ethidium bromide injections.Then the expressions of S100A4,GFA P,NG2 and Mael were measured.Result:The expressions of Mtsl/S100A4 in mice spinal cord were similar to that in rats.In WT mice this protein expressed in a thin layer of fiber bundles in the tract of Lissauer,and in white matter astrocytes.There was intracellular up-regulation of Mtsl/S100A4 in white matter astrocytes of WT mice after dorsal root or sciatic nerve injury,with no difference in glial cell response between WT and KO mice.However,7 days after ethidium bromide injection,in WT mice,the astroglial reaction was restricted on operated side,where a distinct glial scar had formed.While in KO mice,no distinct glial scar formed in demyelinated area.Conclusion:Mtsl/S100A4 expression in mouse spinal cord is similar to the pattern as in rats;intracellular Mtsl/ S100A4 up-regulation does not affect glial responses in degenerative spinal cord;the presence of extracellular Mtsl/ S100A4,which entered the spinal cord after ethidium bromide induced demyelination,markedly affects the glial cell responses in demyelinative spinal cord,including glial scar formation.

RESULTS BCEF0083 increased ambulation and rearing score of chronic unpredictable stressed rats in the open field. BCEF0083 attenuated REMS percent and latency in chronic stressed rats obviously. CONCLUSION BCEF0083 can ameliate sleep-wakefulness cycle and behaviour in chronic unpredictable stress model of depression in rats.

BACKGROUND:It is unclear whether serial cel passage in vitro influences the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s into neural stem cel s.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of cel passage on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s into neural stem cel s.
METHODS:Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were isolated and cultured by the whole bone marrow adherence method. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s at passages 3, 6, 9, 12 were incubated in serum-free medium. After culture for 7 and 14 days, cel biological characterization was observed and differenitaiton ability into neural stem cel s was observed by detecting Nestin expression in cel s using flow cytometry. Then, the cel s were further induced to differentiate and cel multipotential differentiation capacity was detected by measurement of nerve enolase and glial acidic protein expression.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Under induction, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s at different passages were al differentiated into Nestin-positive neural stem cel s. However, there was a significant difference in differentiation proportion of cel s at different passages (P<0.05). Strongest differentiation ability was found in the passage 6 cel s, with the Nestin expression up to (93.7±2.3)%at 7 days of induction and (96.2±1.8)%at 14 days of induction. The proportion of differentiated cel s at passages 6 and 9 was signfi cantly higher than that at passages 3 and 12. Moreover, adherent cel s were positive for nerve enolase and glial acidic protein. Al these findings indicate that the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s into neural stem cel s is correlated with cel passage. Cel s at lower or higher passages are both detrimental to cel differentiation.
