[ ABSTRACT] Diabetes is characterized by an absolute or relative deficiency inβ-cell mass, which cannot be re-versed with existing therapeutic strategies.The restoration of the endogenous islet β-cells can stabilize the level of blood glucose.The isletβ-cells can be obtained from the directional differentiation of stem cells, but the process is complex and has the risk of teratomas generation.Cell direct reprogramming, one terminal differentiated cell can transdifferentiate into another kind of terminal differentiated cell, which is other than directional differentiation from stem cells.Direct reprogram-ming gives rise to the generation of isletβ-cells from one terminal differentiated cell, may be preferable for diabetes therapy because of its unique advantage.

Objective To evaluate the clinical validity of physiological and operative severity score for the enumeration of mortality and morbidity (POSSUM) in aged patients undergoing thoracic surgery. Methods Physiological and operative severity scores were kept in 206 aged patients undergoing thoracic surgery, in which peritoneal soiling was converted to pleura soiling. The physiological score and the operative risk score were compared between the groups with or without the postoperative complications. The mortality and morbidity rates were calculated. Actual mortality and morbidity rates were compared with the rates predicted by POSSUM. Results Among 206 patients, there were postoperative complications in 97 patients. The physiological score and the operative severity score were significantly higher in the group in whom complications occurred compared with those without complications (19.3?0.7 vs 15.1?0.6 for physiological score, P

Objective To define a suitable and adequate sample volume for the detection of bacterial contamination in cord blood (CB) via BacT/ALERT system. Methods A total of 1 376 cord blood units were routinely screened for aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms by culturing the erythrocyte fraction(EF) or plasma fraction(PF) with 20 ml and 10 ml sample volume. The microbial contamination was detected by BacT/ALERT 3D system, and the results of this method were compared with the improved Martin/thiogly collate broth(22 ℃) and thioglycollate broth(35 ℃).Results The rates of positive BacT/ALERT results were 1.16%(10 ml) and 1.24%(20 ml) for PF, and 3.20%(20 ml) for EF. The positive rate of Martin/thiogly collate broth(22 ℃/35 ℃) was 1.00% for EF. Conclusion Using BacT/ALERT system for microbial detection in cord blood bank can enhance the security of umbilical cord blood transplantation.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of tirofiba in the treatment of patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). MethodsA total of 158 patients with acute STEMI were randomly divided into tirofiban group 1 (59 cases, received tirofiban before PCI), tirofiban group 2 (56 cases, received tirofiban when PCI) and control group(43 cases, only received PCI). The coronary reperfusion flow(TIMI grade) of infarct related artery (IRA) after PCI, the resolution of the sum of ST segment elevation(sum STR) at 90 min after the procedure, the changes of myocardial enzyme at 6 h and 12 h afterwards, the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 1 week later, the major adverse cardiac events(MACE) within 30 d, bleeding and thrombocytopenia complications were analyzed and compared among the three groups. ResultsTIMI reperfusion grades in tirofiban group 1[98.3％(58/59 )]and tirofiban group 2[92.9％(52/56)]were higher than those in control group[60.5％(26/43)](P ＜0.05). The resolution of sum STR at 90 min after PCI in tirofiban group 1 [(89.3 ± 6.9)％]and tirofiban group 2[(82.4 + 7.3)％]was higher than that in control group[(65.6 +8.1 )％](P＜ 0.01 ),and there was significant difference between tirofiban group I and tirofiban group 2 (P＜0.05 ). The occurrence of MACE within 30 d was lower in tirofiban group 1 and tirofiban group 2 than that in control group (P＜ 0.05). The level of CK-MB at 6 h and 12 h afterwards was lower in tirofiban group 1 than that in tirofiban group 2,and tirofiban group 2 was lower than control group (P＜ 0.05). LVEF 1 week later in tirofiban group 1[(56.2 + 6.4)％]was higher than that in tirofiban group 2[(51.1 + 4.9)％]and control group[(49.8 + 5.7)％](P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant difference between tirofiban group 2 and control group (P ＞ 0.05). Although bleeding incidence in tirofiban group 1 and tirofiban group 2 was higher than that in control group, no severe bleeding and thrombocytopenia was observed. Conclusion Tirofiban can safely and effectively reduce the incidence of the ischemic events in the patients with acute STEM1 during preoperative of emergency PCI.

This is to report the study of degradation of earthworm extracts prepared by wet superfine grinding in simulated gastrointestinal environment. Enzymatic reactions were terminated by adjusting the solution pH or using membrane bioreactor principle. Earthworm protein concentration change was detected by Bradford method, the degraded state of protein was described with SDS-PAGE technology, and the degraded state of small molecule substances was detected by HPLC. The results showed that earthworm protein degraded completely in artificial gastric juice. High molecular weight protein degraded greatly in artificial intestinal fluid, while low molecular weight protein was not significantly degraded. Small molecular substances degradation did not degrade in artificial gastric juice, while they degraded obviously in artificial intestinal fluid, there is even new small molecule substance appeared. Finally it is concluded that the substance that having therapeutic effects in vivo may be some degraded peptide, amino acid and stable small molecules existed in artificial intestinal fluid.
