Liver cirrhosis is a common chronic progressive liver disease,and at present the most effective treatment for advanced liver cirrhosis is liver transplantation.However,main reasons of limiting the wide application of liver cirrhosis are liver source deficiency,expensive cost,graft rejection reaction,the complications caused by long-term application of immunosuppressant and so on.Stem cell transplantation has become a new method for the treatment of liver diseases due to its beneficial to the damaged liver tissue repair,and it can compensate part of liver function.The basis and clinical research progress,the existing problems and prospects of the bone mesenchymal stem cell transplantation for the treatment of liver cirrhosis are summarized,aiming to provide theoretical basis for the further research.

Objective To establish the method for quality control of ethyl-acetate parts of Ferula sinkiangesis. Methods HPLC was used to detect the contents of ferulic acid, farnesiferol A and farnesiferol C. Waters XTerra RPC18 column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) was used; acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid was as mobile phase with gradient elution; flow rate was 1.0 mL/min; detective wavelength was 324 nm; temperature was 30℃; sample volume was 10 μL ResultsFerulic acid, farnesiferol A, and farnesiferol C showed a good linear relationship range from 0.05– 1.0 mg/mL, 0.132–2.64 mg/mL, and 0.118–2.36 mg/mL, respectively. The average recovery rates were 99.34%, 98.96% and 99.24% respectively. The contents of ferulic acid, farnesiferol A and farnesiferol C were 33.4, 76.5, 72.3 mg/g respectively.Conclusion The method was simple, accurate and repeatable, with good repeatability and stability, which can be used for the quality control of ethyl-acetate parts ofFerula sinkiangesis.

Objective:To explore the promoting effects of IL-7 and IL-2 on CD4+CD25-T cells proliferation in vitro and construct a stable culture system in vitro for CD 4+CD25+regulatory T cells from human umbilical cord blood.To compare the inhibiting effects between induced proliferated CD 4+CD25+Tregs and naturally isolated CD 4+CD25+Tregs on PBMCs functional activity.Methods:CD4+CD25-T cells and CD4+CD25+T cells were isolated from human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells by magnetic activated cell sorting ( MACS) system and then expanded in vitro.Four different concentration levels of IL-7 combined with proper concentration of IL-2 were added as inducer and the efficiency and optimal concentration of IL-7 on inducing,CD4+CD25-T cells were analyzed via 4 different methods.Flow cytometry method was used to detect the changes of CD 4+CD25-T cells.The inhibitory effect of expanded CD 4+CD25+T cells on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was tested by MTS.The expressions of Foxp3,IL-10 and TGF-βgenes in CD4+CD25+T cells were test by RT-PCR.Results:The CD4+CD25+T cells from each groups were expanded significantly after three weeks of culture.The results indicated that use of IL-7 combined with IL-2 resulted in the highest cell expansion comparing to the other groups.It was shown by the inhibitory test that the expanded CD 4+CD25+regulatory T cells could inhibit the proliferation of PBMCs ,but IL-7 induced CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells exerted weaker suppressor activity than natural regulatory T cells .Only IL-7 (4 ng/ml) and IL-2 (2 000 U/ml) induced CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells showed the strongest killing activity.Conclusion:We successfully expand CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells in vitro.The protocol is established in which the use of mAbCD 3/CD28 combined with IL-7 and IL-2 resulted in the highest cell expansion ,and intensely expressed cell phenotype of CD 4 and CD25.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the application of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation in formulation screening. METH-ODS:Taking Compound paracetamol and chlorphenamine maleate granules as model drug,based on single factor experiment,L9(34) orthogonal test was used to screen the formulation with the amount of aspartame,hawthorn powder essence,milk powder essence and saccharose as factors,using dissolution rate of caffeine as index. The granules prepared by 9 kinds of formulation in orthogonal test were evaluated with fuzzy comprehensive evaluation in terms of taste,aroma,color and dissolubility. The optimized formula-tion was validated and compared with original formulation. RESULTS:The formulation 5 was the optimal choice in both orthogo-nal test and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation,and obtained same results. Compared with sensory comprehensive score (63.12) and dissolution rate of caffeine (91.3%) in original formulation,two indicators of optimized formulation in 3 tests were 84.00 and 99.07% in average (RSD<2.0%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS:Fuzzy comprehensive evaluation can be used for the formulation screening of sensory evaluation index. It is scientific and accurate.

Objective: To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of cervical lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), and provide a basis for the individualized surgical procedure. Methods: Retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 940 PTMC patients admitted to the Department of Thyroid Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, from January 2016 to June 2018, including 206 males and 734 females, with a gender ratio of 1.0∶3.6. Age ranged from 18 to 78, with an average of (45.5±10.6) years. The correlation between gender, age, cancer size, multifocality, BRAF^V600E gene mutation, complicated with hashimoto′s thyroiditis, extrathyroidal extension and lymph node metastasis were analyzed. SPSS 21.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Chi-square test or rank sum test was adopted for comparison between groups, and logistic regression analysis was adopted for multivariate analysis. Results: There were 397 (42.2%) patients with central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) and 104 (11.1%) patients with lateral lymph node metastasis (LLNM). Univariate analysis showed that male, age < 55 years old (χ²=24.485, P<0.001), bilateral cancer foci (χ²=8.100, P=0.004), larger length-diameter (Z=-0.016, P<0.001), and BRAF^V600E gene mutation (χ²= 4.918, P=0.027) had a higher CLNM positive proportion, and LLNM positive proportion was higher in male (χ²=6.584, P=0.010), bilateral cancer foci (χ²=26.669, P<0.001), larger length-diameter (Z=-4.991, P<0.001), extra-glandular invasion (χ²=16.862, P<0.001) . Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gender (OR=2.091, P<0.001), age (OR=1.551, P=0.010), cancer lesion length (OR=5.285, P<0.001) and BRAF^V600E gene mutation (OR=1.648, P=0.038) were independent risk factors for CLNM in PTMC patients. Gender (OR=1.657, P=0.032), bilateral lesion (OR=2.610, P<0.001), tumor length diameter (OR=7.420, P<0.001) and extrathyroidal extension (OR=2.611, P=0.005) were independent risk factors for LLNM. The optimal critical values of tumor lesion length-diameter for risk assessment in CLNM and LLNM were 0.6 cm and 0.8 cm, respectively. Conclusions For PTMC patients with negative cervical lymph node had risk factors for lymph node metastasis, preventive dissection of central lymph nodes was recommended, and preventive dissection of lateral lymph nodes should also be comprehensively considered, by evaluating the extrathyroidal extension.
