Objective To analysis the effect of stem cell transplantation on serum homocysteine ( Hcy ) , C reactive protein ( CRP ) and brain derived neurotrophic factor( BDNF) in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods 42 patients who were diagnosed with ischemic stroke in Yichang First People's Hospital were collected.All patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, 21 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional therapy, and the experimental group was treated with autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation for treatment on the basis of conventional therapy, after treatment, the serum levels of serum homocysteine, CRP, BDNF and clinical curative effect were detected in all patients.Results After treatment, compared with control group, the serum Hcy level was lower in the experimental group(P<0.05);the serum CRP level was lower in the experimental group (P<0.05); the serum BDNF level was higher in the experimental group (P<0.05); the FIM, ADL and Fugl-Meyer score were higher in the experimental group(P <0.05).Conclusions The stem cell transplantation can significantly reduce the serum Hcy and CRP levels in patients with ischemic stroke, increase the content of BDNF in serum, improve the therapeutic effect, and have a guiding significance for clinical.

Objective To investigate the change expression levels of secreted frizzled related protein 5 (SFRP5) mRNA and protein in human adipose,and muscle tissues and the relationship between SFRP5 and insulin resistance in different glucose tolerance subjects.Methods Twelve type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) patients and 12 aged and sex-matched healthy control subjects were enrolled.T2DM patients were diagnosed by1999 WHO criterion.Under the same conditions,the omental adipose and muscle tissues from these patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery were obtained.Expressions of sfrp5 protein and mRNA in adipose and muscle tissues were determined by semi—quantitive RT-PCR and Western blot while body height,weight,waist circumference,hipcircumference,blood pressure,lipodemia,fasting plasma glucose,fasting insulin,glycosylated hemoglobin,fasting serum insulin(FINS),HOMA-β,HOMA-insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) etc were investigated.Results 1.SBP,TG,FPG,2 h PG,Fins,HOMA-IR,HbA1C were significantly higher in T2DM groups than in the control group.2.The expressions of SFRP5 mRNA and protein in omental adipose tissues were significantly higher inT2DM group than in the control group(P ＜ 0.01).3.The level of SFRP5 mRNA and protein expressions were higher in omental adipose tissue than in the muscle tissues.Conclusions The fact that mRNA and protein expression level of SFRP5 was higher in adipose tissue than in muscle indicates adipose tissue may be the main source of SFRP5.The expressions of SFRP5 mRNA and protein were higher inT2DM group than in the control group indicates sfrp5 may play a role in insulin resistance.
