BACKGROUND: Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), a kind of adult stem cells, possess plasticity and can be induced into myocardial cells under certain conditions. Autologous ADSCs transplanted into the infarct area can differentiate into myocardial cells and vascular endothelial cells to construct new vessels and thereby improve cardiac pump function. OBJECTIVE: To study the factors that influence ADSCs differentiation and transplantation and the current clinical and laboratory research progress of ADSCs transplantation for treatment of cardiomyopathy.METHODS: A computer-based retrieval was performed in Medline (between January 1990 and April 2010), PubMed database, the China Biological Medicine Database (CBM) (between January 1990 and April 2010), and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) with the keywords adipose-derived stem cells, myocardial cells, cell differentiation, cell transplantation, cardiomyopathy treatment.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 30 articles, consisting of 6 reviews and 24 randomized controlled trials, were obtained. At present, there have been uniform methods of ADSCs isolation and culture, and ADSCs can be effectively proliferated in vitro, but there have been no direct methods to identify these stem cells. ADSCs differentiation can be induced both in vitro and in vivo, besides, with a characteristic of early differentiation. ADSCs transplantation is a more conductive therapy for myocardial disease compared with bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation. Different ADSCs transplantation methods should be carried out in different types of cardiomyopathy. Stem cell labeling technique can help to dynamically monitor implanted in vivo. Transplantion of autologous ADSCs is a new way to treating cardiomyopathy. However, for successes in clinical practice, the method to inhibit tumor cells-promoting characteristics is needed to ensure long-term safety of the patients receiving ADSCs transplantation.

Objective To study the application of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for dental caries prevention using whole body luminescence fiber,and to investigate the effects of PDT on the content of Ca and P in rat molar enamel.Method The rat dental caries model was established by inoculating with S.mutans.Eighty male rats were randomly divided into five groups,including three experimental groups:17 mW (8 mW/cm2) PDT (group A),34 mW (15 mW/cm2) PDT (group B),68 mW (30 mW/cm2) PDT (group C),a positive control group:20 g/L NaF solution (group D),and a negative control group:0.9％ physiological saline (group E).The experimental groups were treated by 40 μg/mL hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) and 650 nm diode laser irradiation.The experiments were conducted for 4 weeks.The contents of Ca and P in the molars of each group were measured by inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry.Results The contents of Ca and P in group B,C and D after PDT were significantly higher than those in group A and E (all P＜0.05).The contents of Ca and P in group A showed no significant difference before and after PDT,while those in groups B and C showed significant increase after PDT (all P＜O.05).The increment of Ca in group A after PDT was lower than that in group D (P＜0.05),while those in group B and C were significantly higher than those in group D (all P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the increment of Ca and P between group B and C after PDT.Conclusions In the range of the experimental parameters,the PDT promoted effect of tooth remineralization is better than 20 g/L NaF.The levels of Ca and P in the tooth enamel can be promoted by PDT treatment,and the contents of Ca and P are related to the pewer of PDT.The effect of low power PDT on the remineralization of enamel is not obvious.The contents of Ca and P in the tooth enamel are increased with laser power of PDT.When the laser power increased to a certain value,the change in contents of the two elements is not obvious.PDT can maintain the tooth remineralization microenvironment.
