Gene therapy of spinal cord injury (SCI) is the most promising method compared with the others, because it doesn't involve the problems of resource and higher exclusion which respectively exists in fetal nerve transplantation and peripheral nerve transplantation. There are two ways of gene therapy to be chosen: one is to transfer objective genes to the target-cells in vivo directly; the other is to transfer objective genes to one proper kind of transplantable cells firstly, then graft the highest expressing cells to the target-cells in vivo. To realize the transfer of genes to cells, two measures are used in common: physical or chemical measure such as micro infection et al and biochemical measure i. e. gene modified defective virus. Although there are some questions unresolved in this field, the clinical value of gene therapy of SCI in the future is depended.

Objective To evaluate therapeutic effects of hyperthermia therapy in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of nonsmall cell lung carcinoma. Methods Fifty-two patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma underwent hyperthermia therapy in combination with chemotherapy(NP regimen) in this hospital between September 2003 and November 2006.The therapeutic effects were evaluated after 3 cycles of the combination therapy,and were compared with those from 16 patients receiving only chemotherapy between January 2006 and November 2006.Results The combination therapy offered significantly better curative short-term effects than the simple chemotherapy.The total response rate was 65.4%(34/52) for the combination therapy and 37.5%(6/16) for the simple chemotherapy(Z=-2.419,P=0.016).Significant pain relief was achieved in patients after the combination therapy,while no analgesic effect was noted after the simple chemotherapy,the difference between the two groups of patients being statistically significant(Z=6.486,P=0.000).There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups,which mainly included nausea,granulocytopenia,thrombocytopenia,and abnormal liver functions.Conclusions Hyperthermia therapy in combination with chemotherapy compares favorably to simple chemotherapy in the treatment of non-small cell lung carcinoma.

Objective To investigate that whether the immuno-modulatory capacity is intact in myelodysplastic syndrome-refractory anemia (MDS-RA) derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) and what are the differences compare with those from normal donors.Methods Isolating MSC from MDS and normal donors respectively and exam their differences on T lymphocyte activation,proliferation and suppression.Results The results showed that the capacity of suppressing T cell proliferation and activation is weakened.Conclusion We propose that MSCs from pathological environment might be abnormal and should not be used for autologous transplantation.

Objective To explore the influence of intravesical chemotherapy combined with hyperthmia on levels of insulin growth factor( IGF) and tumor necrosis factor( TNF) in bladder cancer after operation. Methods 64 cases of transitional cell carcinoma of bladder accepted TURBt were randomly divided into two groups: intravesical chemotherapy combined with hyperthmia group and intravesical chemotherapy group. Levels of ICF and TNF in two weeks before therapy 、two weeks after therapy, four weeks after therapy were tested. Results The IGF levels were (65.97±5.25)μg/L,(49.93±1.98)μg/L,(36.82±1.89)μg/L in intravesical chemotherapy combined with hyperthmia group and(61.87 ±5.41)μg/L, (57.86 ±2. 18) μg/L, (48. 68 ±2. 26) μg/L in intravesical chemotherapy group. The TNF levels were(2.32 ±0. 36)μg/L, (3. 84 ±0. 31) μg/L, (8. 79 ±0. 46)μg/L in intravesical chemotherapy combined with hyperthmia group and(2. 21 ±0. 19)μg/L,(2. 89 ±0.47) μg/L, (3. 87 ±0.61)μg/L in intravesical chemotherapy group. The influence of intravesical chemotherapy with hyperthmia on levels of IGF and TNF were significant than intravesical chemotherap, and the influence degree showed in time-dependent manner (all P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion Intravesical chemotherapy combined with hyperthmia had curative effect in inhibiting the recurrence of tumor after operation.

Objective To evaluate the effect of Caspase-1 inhibitor on hepatic tissue and on the expression of hepatic interleukin-18 of rats with experimental severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods Forty-two SD rats were randomly assigned into 3 groups: healthy control group(HC,n=6),SAP+normal saline group(SAP-S,n=18) and SAP+ICE inhibitor group(SAP-ICE-I,n=18).SAP was induced by retrograde infusion of 4% sodium taurocholate into the pancreaticobliliary duct in SD rats.Animals in HC group received similar surgical procedure and duct cannulation but without sodium taurocholate inoculation.In SAP-S group,rats received the first intraperitoneal injection of isotonic saline 2 hours after induction of acute pancreatitis,and the same injection was repeated at 12th hour.ICE inhibitor was injected into the rats in SAP-ICE-I group 2 hours after induction of acute pancreatitis,and the same injection was repeated at 12th hour.Blood samples were obtained from the rats in SAP-S and SAP-ICE-I groups via cardiac puncture at 6,12 and 18h after modeling,respectively.The levels of serum amylase(AMY),alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and the peritoneal fluid,were detected at these three time points.The histopathology of pancrease and liver were observed under light microscope.Intrahepatic expression and localization of IL-18 protein were detected respectively by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry.Results Serum AMY,ALT,AST and peritoneal fluid were significantly increased in SAP-S and SAP-ICE-I groups compared with those in HC group(P

BACKGROUND: Cardiospecific proteins of the troponin-tropomyosin complex in the contractile system of the cardiomyocytes have challenged creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB) as the "gold standard" for the early biochemical detection of acute myocardial injury.OBJECTIVE: To investigate cardiac troponin Ⅰ messager RNA (cTnI-mRNA) in peripheral blood and its clinical values in diagnosis of patients with myocardial injury.DESIGN: A basic and observational study for set up a method to analyze cTnI-mRNA.SETTING: Department of Cardiology, Affiliated Hospital, Nantong University.MATERIALS: The project was accomplished from May 2003 to May 2005 in Research Center of Clinical Molecular Biology, and Department of Pathology, Affiliated Hospital, Nantong University. The cTnI-mRNA was detected from blood by a nested PCR assay, and its clinical values as a sensitive myocardial diagnostic marker were confirmed in patients with myocardial injury.METHODS: Pathologic features and microstructure of cardiac myocytes were examined by H&E staining or electron microscopy. The cTnI-mRNA was extracted from blood and synthesized to cDNA through random primers and reverse transcriptase, and amplified by a nested PCR assay, and its clinical values as a myocardial diagnostic marker were investigated in patients with myocardial injury.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Microstructure of cardiomyocytes, sensitivity of analysis method and diagnostic values.RESULTS: Microstructure of cardiomyocytes with mitochondria swell,rupture, vacancy-like denaturation, nucleus abnormality, and chromatin condensed were observed by electron microscopy. The cTnI-mRNA fragments from heart and blood were successfully amplified and the sensitivity was 2 pg/μL. The product sequences from tissues or blood were confirmed by sequencing. The cTnI-mRNA from cardiac myocytes was found that it present in blood plasma and not in circulating nucleus cell. The incidence of blood cTnI-mRNA of chronic cardiomyopathy was significantly higher (P ＜ 0.05) than that of serum enzymatic patterns or cTnI quality,respectively.CONCLUSION: The analysis of blood cTnI-mRNA is a sensitive marker for diagnosis and monitoring of myocardial injury.
