Stromal cell-derived factor-1(SDF-1)is an early cell growth factor which belongs to a subfamily of chemokines.The CXCR4 is SDF-1 receptor.The SDF-1 interacting with CXCR4 plays important roles in physiological and pathological processes such as hematopiesis, stem cell homing,angiogenesis and leukemic cells infiltrating.To study the expression of CXCR4 in leukemia and the relationship between CXCR4 and leukemic cells infiltration can add indicators for leukemic MIC diagnosis of immunology indexes and have great significance to take molecule targeted therapy for preventing leukemia from infiltration or relapse as well.

Experimental respiratory distress syndrome was induced with oleic acid injection to 8 dogs. 4 dogs received no treatment and served as controls, and the other 4 were treated with anisodamine (654-2) after oleic acid injection.All the animals were killed at the 72nd hour after injection, and their lung tissues were studied under electron microscope.It was found that anisodamine was able to reduce the severity of pulmonary edema. There was accumulation of neutrophils in the pulmonary capillaries and hyaline membrane formation on the epithelial surface of the alveoli and alveolar duct walls. Neutrophil accumulation in the capillaries may indicate that the content of the blood was kept at a fairly high level at the 72nd hour after injection in spite of anisodamine treatment. The chief constituent of the hyaline membrane was fibrin. At the sites of hyaline membrane formation, focal cyto-plasmic necrosis of the type I epithelial cells was often observed.

Forty rats were selected for the experiment, which were divided into three groups including experimental ulcer group, normal saline and normal control groups. The pancreatic tissue were prepared for immunohistochemical staining at 6th, 10th, 14th, and 21st day after operation. Sternberger's PAP method was used to show the glucagon cell (A cell) and insulin cell (B cell) in order to observe their changes during the experimental peptic ulcer. In normal control group, the percentage of A cells is 23.31?1.91 (X?SD) and that of B cells is 73.1?4.01. But in experimental ulcer group, the A cell percentage is raised up to 42.6?5.59 and the B cell percentage is lowered down to 57.5?4.55 on the 10th day after operation. Comparing with normal saline group and normal group their differences show statistical outstanding differences. The result may point out that both A and B cells of pancreatic islet take part in the body's natural resistance against the disease, especially A cells.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism (JCEM), sponsored by U.S. Endocrine Society, is particularly appreciated by clinical endocrine doctors worldwide. It is intimately related to clinical practice while still catching up state of art research methods and recent discoveries and its creativity, novelty, scientific reliability, feasibility and readability are highly appraised. Compared to JCEM, our Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism seems to be inadequate in certain aspects and needs to be improved in the future.
