Objective To study the distribution and changes of three NOS isoforms in mouse uterus during reproductive stage and understand the possible physiological regulatory roles of endogenous NO in reproduction. Methods Immunohistochemisty and colorimetry were used. Results During reproductive stage, nNOS had a relatively stable expresstion in mouse uterus. Numerous positive cells mainly distributed in endometrial epithelium, endometrial stroma, glandular epithelium, vascular endothelium and smooth muscle. In the middle stage of pregnancy,eNOS had a significantly increased expresstion in mouse uterus. Strongly positive staining was observed in decidual epithelium, glandular epithelium and vascular endothelium. During early stage of pregnancy, iNOS had a relatively stronger expresstion in mouse uterus. Positve materia mainly located in smooth muscle, vascular endothelium, glandular epithelium and endometrial stromal cells. However, during estrus, the staining of iNOS in mouse uterus was negative. Moreover, the levels of NO in mouse serum during reproductive period were measured.Conclution During reproductive stage, three NOS isofoms may act dependently and independently. Endogenous NO may have physiological regulatory roles to estrogenicity, embryo implantation, maintaining the quiescence of the uterus before patrition and tissue remodelling after patrition of mice.\;[

Objective To research the experience of cardiac death organ donation based on the transplant coordinator.Methods Survey was made in The Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University,and potential donors,data were collected from March to October,2010.Through defining four concepts:potential DCD donors,effective DCD donor,success ratio of DCD donor,rejection ratio of DCD donors,the DCD work was quantitatively analyzed.Results There were 16 potential DCD donors and 5 effective DCD donors,and the success ratio of DCD donor was 31.3 0％ (5/16).In the 11 failure cases,there were 3 cases (27.3 ％) whose family refused to donate,3 cases (27.3 0％) whose family had no consentaneous opinions on denotation,4 cases (36.4 ％) whose organ quality did not meet the criteria because of delaying time when dealing with various kinds of disputes or coordinating with various departments,and one case (9.1 ％ ) whose donated organ was unqualified.Rejection ratio of DCD donors was 37.5 ％ (6/16).Conclusion We need to do efforts to further improve the potential DCD donors,discovery.Transplantation coordinator plays an important role in human organ donation work,whose communication skills and professional knowledge still need to be further trained.It is not enough to just rely on the medical department and Red Cross,human organ donation work needs the collaborative participation among the administrative department,the traffic department and the department of justice.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of bloodstream infection-related death after liver transplantation.Methods The retrospective case-control study was adopted.The clinical data of the 107 patients with bloodstream infection from 365 liver transplantation patients who were admitted to the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University (220 patients) and South Central Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University (145 patients) from January 1,2002 to December 31,2015 were collected.The patients received modified piggyback liver transplantation.The second or third generation celphalosporin or carbapenems antibiotics were preventively used against infection according to the bacterial culture results before surgery,and the immune inhibitor basic program after surgery was FK506 + prednisone.The observation indicators included:(1) the bloodstream infection status after liver transplantation:incidence of bloodstream infection,frequency of bloodstream infection,inadequate antiinfection treatment,primary infection position,microorganism infection type,bacterial culture results and bloodstream infection-related mortality.(2) The risk factors of blood stream infection-related death after liver transplantation in univariate and multivariate analyses in cluded:the gender,age,resource of donor,usage of immune inhibitor,time between infection and liver transplantation,infection temperature,primary infection position(intraperitoneal or biliary infection),pathogenic microorganism type,nosocomial infection,inadequate antibiotic usage,serum creatinine level,serum albumin (Alb) level,white blood cell (WBC) in peripheral blood,lymphocyte in peripheral blood,platelet (PLT) in peripheral blood and septic shock indexes.The patients were followed up by outpatient examination and telephone interview up to January 31,2016,the follow-up contents included the survival status of the patients,vital signs,using status of immune inhibitor,immune inhibitor concentration,blood routine,biochemical indexes,surgery,other infection-related complications and acute rejection.Continuous variables with normal distribution were represented as ~ ± s.The univariate analysis was done by the Chi-square test.The multivariate analysis was done by the Logistic regression model.Results (1) The bloodstream infection status after liver transplantation:186 bloodstream infections were happened in 107 patients undergoing liver transplantation,with a total incidence of bloodstream infection of 29.32％ (107/365).The incidence of bloodstream infection was 28.18％ (62/220) in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University and 31.03％ (45/145) in the South Central Hospital Affiliated to Wuhan University,with no statistical difference (x2=0.186,P ＞0.05).Of 107 patients,56 patients had once bloodstream infection,31 had twice bloodstream infection and 20 had three times or more bloodstream infection (frequency of the most bloodstream infection was 6).The inadequate anti-infection treatment was applied to the 41.12％ (44/107)of patients with liver transplantation and bloodstream infection.The number of patients with primary infection positions in abdomen,lung,urethra,intravascular catheter and unknown sites were 40,39,3,1 and 24,respectively.The Gram positive bacteria,Gram negative bacteria,fungus and mixed infection of microorganism infection type were detected in 28,24,4 and 51 patients,respectively.There were 102 patients with nosocomial infection.Bacteria culture results in 186 strains of blood sample illustrated:84 strains were Gram positive bacteria as major pathogenic bacteria,among which enterococcus (31 strains) and staphylococcus aureus (23 strains) were dominant strains.The bloodstream infection-related mortality was 37.38％ (40/107),including 35 patients dying of septic shock.(2) The univariate analysis showed that the gender,resource of the donor,infection temperature,type of microorganism,serum creatinine level,serum Alb level,WBC in peripheral blood,PLT in peripheral blood and septic shock were the risk factors affecting bloodstream infection-related death after liver transplantation (x2=5.801,5.920,13.047,12.776,11.366,7.976,25.173,9.289,51.905,P ＜0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that serum Alb level ＜ 30 mg/L and septic shock were the independent risk factors affecting bloodstream infection-related death after liver transplantation (OR =5.839,44.983,95 ％ confidence interval:1.145-29.767,12.606-160.514,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion It is prone to happen bloodstream infection after liver transplantation,and serum Alb level ＜ 30mg/L and septic shock are the independent risk factors affecting bloodstream infection-related death after liver transplantation.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of ponatinib as salvage therapy in relapse chronic myeloid leukemia with T315I mutation (CML-T315D after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Methods Twelve patients with CML-T315I (10 cases of T315I mutation before transplantation and 2 cases of T315I mutation at the time of relapse after transplantation) were included in this retrospective analysis.Ponatinib was used as single agent or combined with chemotherapy and/or donor lymphocyte infusion.The samples obtained for RTQ-PCR were also analyzed for the BCR ABL1 mutation by direct sequencing.Scanning of the ABL KD (amino acids 219-506) for the presence of mutations was sequenced by Sanger.Results In 12 patients with relapse after transplantation,2 patients with molecular relapse were treated with only single-agent ponatinib,and among 10 patients with hematologic relapse,1 patient was treated with single-agent ponatinib and 3 patients were given ponatinib combined with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI),the remaining 6 patients were treated with ponatinib combined with chemotherapy and DLI.After the treatment with ponatinib,11 patients had a good response,10 patients obtained complete hematologic remission (CHR),1 patient obtained partial hematologic remission (PHR) and 1 patient had no response (NR).For cytogenetic response,10 patients obtained complete cytogenetic response (CCyR),1 patient obtained partial cytogenetic response (PCyR) and one patient had no cytogenetic response.For the molecular biological response,9 patients obtained complete molecular response (CMR),1 patient obtained majore molecular response (MMR) and 2 patients had no molecular biological response.The median time to obtain CHR was 36 days (29-96 days),the median time to obtain CCyR was 63 days (32-127 days),and the median time to obtain CMR was 89 days (27-152 days).The median follow-up time after treatment with ponatinib was 598 (range,93-1470) days,9 patients survived and 3 died.Causes of deaths included leukemia relapse (n =2)and ineffective treatment (n =1).The 2-year overall and disease-free survival rate after relapse in 12 patients was 75.0％ ± 12.5％ and 31.7％ ± 14.9％,respectively.Conclusion This small sample data suggested that ponatinib as salvage therapy had a good response to the relapse CML-T315I after allo-HSCT.

OBJECTIVETo explore the impact of courses of intermediate-dose cytarabine (ID-Ara-C) chemotherapy on the efficiency of hematopoietic stem cell mobilization in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT).

METHODS90 patients with de novo AML undergoing auto-HSCT between August 1999 and November 2012 were enrolled. All patients received the mobilization regimen of cytarabine and etoposide chemotherapy in combination with recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF). Stem cell apheresis was scheduled when blood leukocyte count recovered greater than 4.0 × 10⁹/L or the proportion of CD34⁺ cells greater than 1% in peripheral blood. The impact of ID-Ara-C courses on the mobilization efficiency was analyzed retrospectively.

RESULTSAccording to the ID-Ara-C courses, patients were divided into group A (<2 courses), B (2 courses), and C (>2 courses). The median doses of CD34⁺ cells (×10⁶/kg) in three groups were 4.7, 2.7, 2.3, respectively (P=0.003). Of the available 87 patients who could be evaluated, 61 (70.1%) cases had CD34⁺ cells greater than 2.0 × 10⁶/kg, and 26 (29.9%) cases less than 2.0 × 10⁶/kg. Of the 26 patients without satisfactory mobilization efficiency, 7 (15.2%) were in group A, 10 (47.6%) in group B, and 9 (45.0%) in group C (χ²=10.05, P=0.007). In addition, patients with satisfactory mobilization efficiency (CD34⁺ cells ≥ 2.0×10⁶/kg) in groups C needed more times of collection, more volume of blood processed, and even high-dose and longer course of rhG-CSF (P<0.05). In univariate analysis. The ID-Ara-C courses and the cumulative dose were significant correlate with mobilization efficiency. In multivariate analysis, the ID-Ara-C courses was an independent correlation factor for mobilization efficiency (odd ratio=0.623, 95% confidence interval=0.418-0.926, P=0.019). The sex, age, cytogenetic risk, the standard chemotherapy courses did not correlate with mobilization efficiency.

CONCLUSIONThe number of ID-Ara-C courses was independent factor for the mobilization efficiency and should be taken seriously in AML patients with auto-HSCT.
