Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are a group of pluripotential non-hematopoietic somatic stem cells niched in bone marrow.With the characteristics of stable genetic traits,pluripotential in differentiation,easy to isolate from source tissue,and fast to proliferate when cultured in vitro,BMSCs are currently attracting extensive research interests,and considered to be one of the most promising candidates in corneal tissue engineering.At present,many research groups,domestic and abroad,have reported that BMSCs can not only differentiate into corneal limbal stem cells,corneal epithelial cells,and corneal endothelial cells,but also play an important role in ocular surface repair.However,the successful application of BMSCs in cornea usually depends on the correct selection of supporting materials or scaffold,such as xenogeneic corneal stroma and amniotic membrane.Other unsolved problems in BMSCs-related corneal tissue engineering include the molecular biologic mechanism underlying the directional differentiation from BMSCs to corneal cells,the standards to identify BMSCs from differentiated corneal cells,the optimal scaffold materials and the potential tumorigenicity with grafting of transformed or undifferentiated BMSCs.This paper reviewed the progresses and issues of corneal tissue engineering with BMSCs.

Objective To investigate the expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and mucin MUC5AC in nasal mucosa before and after chronic rhinitis - sinusitis and nasal polyps - endoscopic sinus surgery.Methods 75 cases chronic rhinitis - sinusitis and nasal polyps - endoscopic sinus surgery patients were selected as nasal polyps group and 75 cases of nasal bone fracture or epistaxis patients as the control group from January 2012 to January 2015. Took the samples of nasal polyps before surgery and the maxillary sinus mucosa specimens after surgery six weeks of nasal polyps’ patients and on the edge of the inferior turbinate mucosa specimens of the control group to detect eosinophil count by HE staining, and detect the expression of VEGF and mucin MUC5AC by immunohistochemical staining.Results The specimens eosinophils of preoperative nasal polyp group and postoperative nasal polyp group were higher than that of control group (P < 0.05), the nasal eosinophils of postoperative nasal polyp group was lower than that of preoperative nasal polyp group (P < 0.05). The expression of specimens VEGF and mucin MUC5AC area percentages in preoperative nasal polyp group and postoperative nasal polyp group were higher than that in control group (P < 0.05), the expression of nasal VEGF and mucin MUC5AC area percentages in the postoperative nasal polyp group was lower than that of preoperative nasal polyp group (P< 0.05).Conclusion Eosinophil count and the expression levels of VEGF and mucin MUC5AC of nasal mucosa in chronic rhinitis - sinusitis and nasal polyps - endoscopic sinus surgery preoperative are higher, and reduce at postoperative six weeks, VEGF and mucin MUC5AC may be involved nasal repair.

Objective To observe the change of umbilical artery S/D value in the third trimester pregnant women with overt hypothyroidism(OH) or subclinical hypothyroidism(SCH).Methods We collect the data of 37-42 weeks pregnancy from January 2014 to December 2015.We devided them into OH group,SCH group and contral group.We compared the umbilical artery S/D value in these three groups and analyzed the relativity between S/D value and thyroid hormone.Results The S/D value was 2.46 ± 0.31 in OH group,2.48 ± 0.27 in SCH group and 2.32 ± 0.17 in control group.The differences were statistically significant between OH group and contral group (P =0.000),SCH group and contral group (P =0.000).There was no statistically significant between OH group and SCH group (P =0.907).The proportion of cases number during different S/D value range in these three groups had difference (P =0.000).The S/D value was positively correlated to TSH in OH group (r =0.186,P =0.037) and SCH group (r =0.146,P =0.015).There was no correlation between FT3 and S/D value(P ＞ 0.05) or FT4 and S/D value(P ＞ 0.05) in both OH and SCH group.There was no correlation between thyroid hormone and S/D value in the contral group either.Conclusion Both OH and SCH can effect umbilical artery S/D value in the third trimester pregnancy.

Objective To investigate the effect of reinforcing spleen and kidney method on adriamycin-induced CKD in rats and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods Totally 36 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a Adriamycin-induced model group and a control group.The model group was further divided into five groups:the Adriamycin-induced model control group,bennazepril-treated group,and TCM treated low,moderate,and high dose groups.The level of serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,24hours urine protein and urine creatinine were measured at 14,28,42 days after establishing the model rats.And the protein expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21cip1 (p21)were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results The proteinuria was observed on the seventh day after injection of adriamycin in adriamycin nephropathy model group,and reached summit on the fourteenth day.Both TCM treated groups and benazepril group reduced the level of urine protein within 24 hours (P＜0.05),the reduction was most remarkable in the TCM high dose group.The expression of p21 and TGF-β1 (p21 288627.66±97021.65,TGF-β1 98405.14± 19216.89) in kidney increased in the model groups,while the TCM treated high dose group (p21 518886.35±6810.89,TGF-β1 222012.95± 50484.73) was significantly lower than the model control group (P＜ 0.05).Conclusion Reinforcing spleen and kidney method could decrease the level of urine protein within 24 hours by regulating the expression of p21 and TGF-β1,so thus to protect renal function and delay progress of kidney disease.

Objective To assess the feasibility of using plethysmographic waveform variation for estimating the blood volume.Methods After general anesthesia,tracheal intubation and 750ml liquid infusion,the systolic pressure variation(SPV),dDown(delta down),dUp(delta up),SPV plet,dDown plet,dUp plet,cardiac output and other hemodynamic parameters were recorded as control.Then,300ml of blood were drained quickly from radial artery into reservoir bag,and replaced with equal volume Gelofusine.The parameters were recorded again after blood drainage and volume replacement respectively.Results The changes in plethysmographic waveform correlated well with changes in arterial dDown(r==0804 ,P=0005)after acute loss of 300ml blood and dDown and dDown pletincreased from(459?294)mm Hg and (1024?532)% to (700?336)mm Hg and (1611?744)% respectively.Moreover,dDown,SPV plet and dDown pletvaried significantly(P
