BACKGROUND: Currently the hematopoietic stem cells can be obtained from bone marrow, peripheral blood and cord blood, so it is expected to search a new source of stem cells in order to satisfy the clinical transplantation needs. From the 5th week of pregnancy, the blood sinusoid system develops completely in liver, and then hematopoietic stem cells can move with blood flow. OBJECTIVE: To observe the biological features of human fetal blood hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HS/PCs), and their transplantation into non-obese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency disease (NOD/ SCID) mice. DESIGN: Control trial. SETTING: Department of Hematology, First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University. MATERIALS:①Cell resource: Twenty-one fetal blood samples were from dead fetus [gestational age of 18-29 weeks, mean (24.2±3.2) weeks] and twenty-one full-term cord blood samples were provided from the Department of Obstetrics, First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University between October 2002 and February 2003, with the consent of their relatives.②Experimental animal: Twelve NOD/SCID female mice of 6-7 weeks old were bred in sterility and super-clean operation board. METHODS: Flow cytometer was used to assess cell surface markers of HS/PCs including CD34, CD38, HLA-DR and CD90 in 21 human fetal blood samples, and their expressions were compared with 21 human cord blood samples. Moreover, human fetal blood mononuclear cells (MNCs) were transplanted into 6 NOD/SCID mice irradiated sublethally. After 5 weeks, human leukocytic content was also detected in bone marrow of mice with flow cytometer while human Cart-1 gene in recipients' bone marrow was sensed with polymerase chain reaction (PCR).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Expressions of HS/PCs surface markers in fetal blood and cord blood. ②Implantation of fetal blood cells into NOD/SCID mice.RESULTS: ①The percentage of CD34+ cells in fetal blood was significantly higher than that of full-term cord blood [(2.258 8±0.720 9)%,(1.572 9±0.478 3)%, P=0.000 4]. The percentages of CD34+CD38- cells and CD34+CD90+ cells in fetal blood were also higher than those of fullterm cord blood [(1.298 6±0.470 6)%, (0.871 0±0.409 5)%, P=0.001 6;(0.930 0±0.469 2)%, (0.560 0±0.365 8)%, P=0.032 4].②Four cases (4/6)of human fetal blood MNCs smoothly transplanted the hematopoiesis of sublethally irradiated NOD/SCID mice. Five weeks after the transplantation, human leukocyte and Cart-1 gene could still be detected in marrow cells of NOD/SCID mice.CONCLUSION: Human fetal blood contains more HS/PCs than cord blood. Human fetal blood MNCs can engraft bone marrow of NOD/SCID mice and reconstitute general hemopoiesis of marrow and lymph systems.Human fetal blood is a new possible source of pluripotential hematopoietic stem cell.

Objective To investigate the value of MR multiparameter imaging for the clinical classification of chronic pancreatitis. Methods 65 patients with confirmed chronic pancreatitis by follow-up and pathologic examinations ( 14 mild, 37 moderate and 14 severe according to MANNHEIM system) and 20healthy volunteers were included in this study. MR examination including routine T1WI, T2WI, MRCP and dynamic enhanced MRI. The data were measured and statistical analysis was applied in four groups. Two radiologists assessed pancreatic duct diameter, pancreatic size, pancreatic cyst, pancreatic stone and pancreatic signal intensity on MRCP, T1-weighted and T2-weighted images. Pancreatic signal intensity were also measured on dynamic enhanced MR. Results Mean values of pancreatic signal intensity ratio on T1WI (rT1)in the pancreas were significantly reduced in patients with moderate and severe CP compared with volunteers.There was significant difference among four groups ( normal, 0. 98 ±0.27; mild, 0. 84 ±0. 12; moderate,0.81 ±0. 16; severe, 0.75 ±0.24). Mean values of pancreatic signal intensity ratio on T2WI (rT2) in the pancreas were no difference among four groups ( normal, 1.28 ± 0.3; mild, 1. 46 ± 0. 44, moderate, 1.46 ±0.55; severe, 1.76 ± 0.72). Pancreatic duct diameters were significantly increased in mild, moderate and severe CP groups [ mild (5.3 ± 2.4) mm; moderate ( 6.5 ± 3.3 ) mm; severe ( 8.1 ± 4.1 ) mm ] compared with patients without CP[ (2.0 ±0.6) mm; P < 0.01 ]. Severe degree of Cambridge classification was graded as mild in 4 (29%), moderate in 33 (89%), severe in 13 (93%). Pancreatic calcification was graded as mild in 2 ( 14% ), moderate in 11 (30%), severe in 5 (36%). Pancreatic pseudocyst was graded as mild in 0, moderate in 6 ( 16% ), severe in 3 (21.43%). Pancreatic parenchymal atrophy was graded as mild in 4 (29%), moderate in 22 (59%), severe in 10 (71%). They did not vary among CP groups. Parenchymal/arterial phase enhanced ratio (P/A) in the pancreas were significantly increased in patients with mild,moderate and severe CP (mild, 1. 10 ±0.08; moderate, 1.37 ±0.15; severe, 1.48 ±0.53) compared with patients without CP (0.88 ± 0.08, P < 0. 05 ). Significant correlation was present between the severity level of CP and the change of rT1, severe degree of Cambridge classification, the pancreatic duct diameter and P/A (r=0. 34, 0.41, 0. 62, - 0. 43; P < 0. 01 ). ROC analysis showed the presence of pancreatic duct diameters more than 2.5mm, rT1 less than 0. 8 and P/A more than 0. 8 had a sensitivity and specificity of diagnosing chronic pancreatitis of 94% and 79%, 90% and 48%, 95% and 47% respectively. Combined with the three variables, the specificity of diagnosing chronic pancreatitis can be improved to 95%.Conclusions T1-weighted, MRCP and dynamic enhanced MRI imaging can accurately evaluate the clinical severity of chronic pancreatitis. MRCP had the highest sensitivity and specificity, followed by T1-weighted and dynamic enhanced MRI imaging.

The study was conducted in vitro with human breast cancer cells BCaP-37, to determine the effects of selenium, vitamin A, vitamin E and a combination of these three nutrients on cell proliferation and cellular nucleic acid content. Selenium as sodium selenite had two phases of effect on cancer cell proliferation: the low concentrations of selenium (less than 5 ?M) stimulated cell growth and increased the cellular nucleic acid content; the high concentrations (more than 5 ?M) depressed cell growth and reduced the cellular nucleic acid content with dose-dependence. Vitamin A acetate inhibited cancer cell growth significantly, but vitamin A acid inhibited to some extent, and was less effective than vitamin A acetate. Vitamin E had less inhibitory effect compared to vitamin A acetate and the inhibitory percentages were lower than 40% in all treatment groups. Combination of selenium (5 ?M) and vitamin E (20mg/L) or selenium and vitamin A acetate (2mg/L), no synergism for the reduction of the contents of cellular nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) were observed. The combination of selenium, vitamin A acetate and vitamin E at such levels reduced cellular DNA and RNA contents obviously; RNA content was significantly lower than any other treatment group and was reduced synergis-tically. It was indicated that the combination of selenium, vitamin A acetate, vitamin E was synergistic for inhibition of cell proliferation. Results also showed the reversible tendency in the inhibition of cell proliferation by combination of these three nutrients. It was suggested that combination of selenium, vitamin A and E might be benificial for the prevention and adjuvant treatment of human breast cancer.
