BACKGROUND: Human adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) possess exert proliferation and multi-directional ability. As a novel stem cell, it has been widely utilized in tissue engineering and plays an important role in biological and potential therapeutic applications.OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress, applications and existing problems of human ADSCs in tissue engineering and cell therapy by retrieving relevant publications. METHODS: PubMed and CNKI databases were undertaken to identify the relevant articles published from January 1960 to January 2009 with the key words of "human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal cells, isolation, differentiation, immune phenotype, application" both in English and Chinese. The articles relate to biological characteristics and applications of ADSCs were selected. In the same field, the documents published earlier or in the authoritative journals were preferred, and the repetitive studies were excluded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 81 documents were searched by computer, and 57 references were included in the final analysis. The results demonstrated that, human ADSCs share many characteristics, including the high proliferative potential and exhibiting the exert ability to undergo multilineage differentiation under appropriate conditions. Human ADSCs can not only utilize for tissue repairing, but also for cell immune modulation and gene therapy. However, there are still problems in its application. With the development of research on human ADSCs, their biological characteristics will be revealed, and their application in tissue repairing, cell therapy, transplantation, as well as gene therapy must be hold a great promise.

Abstract: Objective To investigate the impact of SARS-CoV-2 virus infection on the risk of thrombosis in COVID-19 outpatient patients with mild and regular symptoms. Methods Outpatient patients during the SARS-CoV-2 large-scale infection period after the policy adjustment for COVID-19 in Beijing in 2022 were selected as the observation group, and the dynamic zero-clearing period before the policy adjustment and outpatient patients during the 2022/2021/2020 period were taken as the three control groups. The patients with physiological factors that may increase the risk of coagulation, such as thrombotic diseases, malignant tumors, female pregnancy and other physiological factors, were excluded. Pediatric patients under 14 years old were also excluded. Age was expressed as median (interquartile). The changes in blood routine, fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products, and D-Dimer in Beijing outpatient patients were studied with statistical method and data analysis techniques. Results Compared with the control groups, the observation group showed a statistically significant decrease in red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), and hematocrit (HCT) levels, and an increase in monocytes (MONO) and platelet (PLT) counts, all showed statistically significant differences (P<0.0001). The proportion of fibrinogen degradation product (FDP) and D-Dimer of observation group exceeding the range increased significantly. Compared with the three control groups, the number of outpatient fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) in the observation group of patients aged 50 years and verage number of patients under 50 years old in the observation group with D-Dimer exceeding the threshold increased by more than 48.98%, and the monthly average number of patients with D-Dimer exceeding the threshold in patients aged 50 or older increased by 346%-998%. Conclusions The results of this study suggest that outpatient patients with mild or regular SARS-CoV-2 infection are also at risk for thrombotic events, and monitoring blood coagulation indicators such as D-dimer is recommended to avoid the sudden onset of thrombosis-related fatal complications .

Objective To investigate the feasibility of high?resolution microendoscopy( HRME) im?aging for animal gastrointestinal mucosa. Methods Mucosal tissues were harvested from the stomach, small intestine, and large intestine of Japanese big?ear white rabbits. The effects of HRME imaging of different lo?cations such as the gastric antrum and fundus, small intestine and large intestine were observed, and those of different exposure time were compared.Accuracy of HRME imaging was compared with pathology. Results The specific tissues of the gastrointestinal mucosa could be clearly distinguished from the HRME images. In the superficial layer of the fundic mucosa, numerous closely arranged glands as well as oval or elongated branched openings of the gastric pits and linear peripheral cracks were visible;the nuclei were arranged reg?ularly. In the superficial layer of the antral mucosa, irregular or tubular openings of the gastric pits and cracked glandular cavities were visible, with the cells surrounding the gastric pits regularly arranged and the nuclei small and densely distributed. In the superficial layer of the small intestine mucosa, stereoscopic thick?finger?shaped villi cluster was visible. The intervillous spaces were crack?like, and the surface was cov?ered by regularly arranged reflective, absorptive cells. In the superficial layer of the large intestine mucosa, many regularly arranged daisy?like round crypts of uniform size, as well as reflective, goblet cells surrounding the crypt and the interval space between crypts were visible. When the exposure time increased, the nuclei became brighter. An excellent correlation was noted between the results of histologic examination and those obtained by using HRME. Conclusion HRME can produce accurate images of the animal gastro?intestinal mucosae and may be a novel technique for further studies of human gastrointestinal pathology.
