BACKGROUND:Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cels have rich sources that are easily obtained, which can be used to treat acute myocardial infarction. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the therapeutic effect of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation on acute myocardial infarction in rats. METHODS:Rat models of acute myocardial infarction were made and subjected to adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation in comparison with model and control (sham operation) groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Echocardiography findings showed significant improvement in the left ventricular end-systolic diameter, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and ejection fraction in the cel transplantation group compared with the model group (P < 0.05). Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that myocardial infarction was evident in the model group, in which, there were rarely viable myocardial tissues and few vessels in the infarcted region, but in the cel transplantation group, there were evident survived myocardial tissues and transplanted cels. The percentage of infarct size was significantly lower in the cel transplantation group than the model group (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining showed that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cels were able to survive in the infarcted myocardial tissues, and the expression of cardiac troponin T in the cel transplantation group was significantly higher than that in the model group (P < 0.05). Experimental data show that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation can protect the myocardial tissues after myocardial infarction, and effectively improve the myocardial function.

We reported a case of pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) and introduced its diag-nosis, differential diagnosis, pathogenesis and development of treatment based on the review of Dana Point 2008 Classification of Pulmonary Hypertensiona and current literatures .A 43-year-old female presented progressive dyspnea, elevated pulmonary arterial pressures and CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) imaging of main pulmonary arterial enlargement and wide spread ill -defined centrilobular nodules of ground-glass opacity.Her histologic features were proliferation of capillary channels within alveolar walls as well as muscularization of arterioles and medial hypertrophy of muscular pulmonary arteries.The treatment with diuretics and warfarin was used promptly , but unfortunately was ineffective. The patient died three months after diagnosis .PCH is a very rare vascular disease with poor prognosis . The diagnosis of PCH rests on the integration of clinical and radiographic information with pathologic fea -tures, however pathology is the most reliable means .Because clinical symptoms, imaging and histological features of pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) and PCH broadly overlap, differential diagnosis should be made carefully.Among the various pathologic features proliferation of capillaries within alveolar walls is the key point for diagnosing PCH , which is also the most critical criteria for differentiating PCH from PVOD.So far the only definitive treatment for PCH is lung transplantation , without which the pa-tient will die several months after diagnosis .
