Objective_To investigate whether hUCMSCs undergo malignant transformation when exposed to MCF-7B breast cancer microenvironment and whether the abnormal activation and over expression of STAT3 play an impor-tant role in this transformation.Methods_The experiment was divided into three groups:blank group ( hUCMSCs were separately cultured),experimental group(hUCMSCs were indirectly co-cultured with MCF-7B breast cancer cells),positive control group(MCF-7B breast cancer cells were separately cultured).Morphology of cells was detec-ted by invertedmicroscope.Cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry.The mRNA expression of STAT3, c-Myc and Bcl-xL was tested by real-time PCR.The protein expression and location of p-STAT3,c-Myc and Bcl-xL were detected by immunofluorescence.The protein expressions of p-STAT3,STAT3,c-Myc and Bcl-xL were also meas-ured by Western blot.Results_The experimental group cells showed typical morphology of the tumor cells.The cells proportion of experiment group in G1 phase was significantly lower than that of the blank group(P<0.05),but which in S and G2 phase were significantly higher than those of the blank group(P<0.05).The mRNA expression levels of STAT3 ,c-Myc and Bcl-xL in experimental group was significantly higher than those in blank group ( P<0.05).p-STAT3,STAT3,c-Myc and Bcl-xL protein were significantly higher than those of the blank group(P<0.05),and they were mainly located in the nuclei.The protein expression of STATS also showed significant changes in experimental group.Conclusions_hUCMSCs trends to malignant transformations when exposed to MCF-7B breast cancer microenvironment.The abnormal activation and over expression of STAT3 are of important factors leading to the malignant transformation of hUCMSCs.

Objective To observe the effect of comprehensive rehabilitation on the recovery of knee joint function in old patients severe burned in lower extremity. Methods 49 patients severe burned in lower extremity were randomly divided into observation group (n=25) and control group (n=24). The control group accepted routine rehabilitation, while the observation group accepted comprehensive rehabilitation. They were assessed with the range of motion (ROM) of knee flexion/extension, 45 m-walking, stair activity, Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and muscle strength 3 months after rehabilitation. Results The active and passive ROM of knee, stair activity, FIM score and muscle strength improved more in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Comprehensive rehabilitation promotes the recovery of knee function of old patients with severe burn in lower extremity.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of acute kidney injury following coronary artery bypass graft(CABG).Methods Twenty-six patients suffering from acute kidney injury following CABG as the patient group and 59 individuals without impairment of renal function as the control from January 2008 to September 2012 in the First People's Hospital of Yichang according to a retrospective case-control study and nonconditional multivariable Logistic regression analysis method..Results Among the 85 patients undergoing CABG,26 suffered acute kidney injury following CABG with a morbidity rate of 30.59％.Identified risk factors for acute kidney injury following CABG included pre-operative mederale-sever cardiac insufficiency,prolonged mechanical ventilation,prolonged stay in ICU and anemia before surgery.The identified independent risk factor of acute kidney injury following CABG was pre-operative mederale-sever cardiac insufficiency (OR =3.206,95％ CI:1.067-9.631).Condusion Pre-operative mederale-sever cardiac insufficiency was an independent risk factor of acute kidney injury following CABG.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Q-switched Alexandrite laser at 752 nm in the treatment of nevus of Ota. Methods A total of 1985 cases of nevus of Ota were treated with the Q-switched Alexandrite laser PhotoGenica HT10, and then the ages, frequency of treatment and interval of treatment were analyzed. Results The excellent effective rate was 97.88 %, and the total effective rate was 100 % in 1985 cases. Most patients in all age group received the excellent effects, however, there was no significant difference between the groups. Most patients acheived the excellent effect after 4 to 5 treatments, and very few patients (0.8 %) needed over 10 treatments; the rate ofpatient who needed 1-3 treatments or 6-10 treatments was 18. 2 % and 25.8 %, respectively. The patients had the most excellent efficacy in the group that the interval of two treatments was 4 to 6months, however, there was no significant difference between the group of the interval of two treatments over 6 months. In our study, there were only a few cases (4.48 %) with slight side reaction,such as temporary pigmentation and hypopigmentation and scar. Conclusions 752 nm Q-switched Alexandrite laser is one of effective and safe treatments for nevus of Ota.

The accuracy was interfered by experience of the examiner, tooth integrity and apical disease.Conclusion:Triple-united method can meet the clinic requirement in the determination of root canal length.

Objective To investigate the effects of therapeutic hypercapnia on type Ⅱ alveolar cells (ATⅡ ) in the transplanted lung in rats.Methods Twenty-eight pathogen free adult male Wistar rats weighing 180-220 g were randomly divided into 2 groups (n= 14 each) : control group (group C) and therapeutic hypercapnia group (group T). The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 3% pentobarbital 30 mg/kg, tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated with 50% O2-50% N2 (VT 10 ml/kg, RR 60 bpm, I∶ E1∶1). Left lung transplantation was performed. In group T starting from the beginning of reperiusion of the transplanted lung, the animals were ventilated with a mixture of 50% O2-N2 and C02(in appropriate concentrations) to keep PaCO2 between 80-100 mm Hg. After 90 min of reperfusion of the transplanted lung, blood samples were collected from pulmonary vein of the transplanted lung and blood gas analysis was performed. Oxygenation index was calculated.AT II cells were isolated from the transplanted lung and purified and examined with electronic microscope. The apoptosis rate of AT Ⅱ cells was detected by flow cytometry. Results Oxygenation index was significantly higher, the apoptotic rate of ATⅡ cells lower, the damage to ATⅡ cells was less in group T than in group C.Conclusion Therapeutic hypercapnia can protect the AT Ⅱ cells in the transplanted lung and improve the function of the trans planted lung.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of 8 Hz infrasound on the expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in rats' hippocampus and temporal cortex.Methods140 male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group, and experimental groups that exposed to infrasound of 8Hz,90dB,100dB and 130dB for 1,7,14,21,28,35,42 days. Experimental groups were exposed to infrasound for 2 hours each day. The control group was only placed in the infrasonic storehouse but without infrasound. Rats' brains were taken as soon as the exposure finished and strained by immunohistochemistry. The content of 5-HT in hippocampus and temporal cortex was detected under an optical microscope.ResultsInfrasound groups had less expression of 5-HT in hippocampus and temporal cortex than the control group (P<0.01), and the least were at the 28th day for 90 dB and 100 dB groups and the 21st day for 130 dB group. Then the expression of 5-HT had an increase in each group.ConclusionThe deceased expression of 5-HT in rats' hippocampus and temporal cortex could result from infrasound of 8 Hz. Rules of change are related to the parameter of infrasound and the 130 dB 8 Hz infrasound can induce greater changes compared with that of 100 dB and 90 dB.
