BACKGROUND: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can be induced to differentiate into neuron-like cells in new environment after transplantation, and then to replace damaged cells for reconstructing neural circuit. OBJECTIVE: To establish the co-culture system between rat BMSCs and neural cells in vitro, and to study the influence of neural cells on the differentiation of BMSCs into neuron-like cells in the co-culture system. METHODS: The neural cells obtained from Wistar rat fetal brain tissue and BMSCs gained from rat thighbone were co-cultured in Transwell culture plate. The morphological changes of BMSCs were observed and the special markers of neural cells in BMSCs were examined by immunofluorescence on the fifth day of the co-culture. The results were compared with control group which where BMSCs were alone cultured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: BMSCs in the neural cells co-culture system extended, were radial, connected each other. Neuron specific enolase immunoreactions showed positive results, showing neuron-like cells. The positive ratio of neuron specific enolase-positive cells was (33.0±10.5)%. However, BMSCs in the control group did not express neuron morphological character. Immunofluorescence exhibited that cells were negative for neuron specific enolase. These indicate that microenvironment provided by neurons improves the differentiation of BMSCs into neuron-like cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of insulin on vascular diameter of the peri -infarct region and infarct volume after cerebral infarction in mice. Methods Forty male C57/BL6j mice w ere randomly divided into a control group ( n = 5), a cerebral infarction group ( n = 15), a cerebral insulin resistance group (n = 5), and a cerebral insulin resistance infarction group ( n = 15). A model of cerebral infarction w as induced by the photochemical method. A model of cerebral insulin resistance w as induced by intracerebroventricular injection of streptozocin. Tw o -photon confocal microscope w as used to in vivo evaluate the changes of vascular diameter in the peri-infarct region at 20 min after insulin injection into the cerebelomedulary cistern. After modeling of cerebral infarction, artificial cerebrospinal fluid or insulin (10 ng/ml) w as immediately injected into the cerebelomedulary cistern, and the effect of insulin on cerebral infarct volume w as evaluated at 24 h after infarction. Results Insulin did not have significant effect on various types of cerebral vascular diameters in the normal control group, but it significantly contracted cerebral arteries ( -23.16% ±6.86% and -23.32% ±6.40%, respectively; al P <0.001) and penetrating arteries ( -15.20% ±5.51% and -16.40% ±4.27%, respectively; al P < 0.001) in the cerebral insulin resistance group and the cerebral insulin resistance infarction group, but it did not have any effect on the diameters of the cerebral veins. There w ere no significant differences in the vasoactive effects of insulin betw een the cerebral infarction group and the normal control group, as w el as betw een the cerebral insulin resistance group and the cerebral insulin resistance infarction group. Insulin significantly reduced the volume of cerebral infarction in the cerebral infarction group (9.0 ±1.0 mm3 vs.6.0 ±1.2 mm3; t = 4.294,P =0.002), and it did not have significant effect on the volume of cerebral infarction in the cerebral insulin resistance infarction group ( 12.6 ±2.3 mm3 vs.11.6 ±1.7 mm3; t = 0.782, P = 0.456). Conclusions Insulin can reduce ischemic brain injury in normal mice and can not affect the cerebrovascular diameter of the peri-infarct region. The neuroprotective effect of insulin is not significant in cerebral insulin resistance in mice, and it may be associated w ith the vasoconstrictor effects of insulin in the peri -infarct region.

Objective To evaluate the effect of methylprednisolone on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in the patients undergoing hepatolobectomy.Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients,aged 30-64 yr,weighing 45-75 kg,scheduled for elective hepatolobectomy,were randomized to control group or methylprednisolone group (n =30 each).After induction of anesthesia,methylprednisolone 500 mg (in 100 ml of normal saline) was infused intravenously at 5 ml/min before skin incision in group M.Anesthesia was induced with propofol,fentanyl and cisatracurium.The patients were endotracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.PETCO2 was maintained at 35-45 mmHg.Anesthesia was maintained with 1％-3％ sevoflurane inhalation,remifentanil infusion,and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and cisatracurium.MAP was maintained at 70-100 mmHg and HR at 50-90 bpm.At 10 min before induction of anesthesia,and on postoperative day 1,3 and 5,venous blood samples were collected for determination of the plasma levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate amminotransferase (AST),total bilirubin (TBIL),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6).Results Compared with group C,the plasma levels of ALT,AST and TBIL were significantly decreased on postoperative day l and 3,and the plasma concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 were decreased on postoperative day 1,3 and 5 in group M.Conclusion Methylprednisolone can reduce hepatic I/R injury in the patients undergoing hepatolobectomy and inhibition of systemic inflammatory responses is involved in the mechanism.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of different treatments on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases and to explore the influential factors of the prognosis.Methods The NSCLC patients with brain metastases treated from Jan.2010 to Dec.2011 were follow-up.The survival time and influences resulted from the treatments were analyzed.Results The average survive time of these patients was (11.93±5.53) months,and the median survive time was 11 months.The 6-month,1-year and 2-year overall survival rates were 90.7 ％,41.1％ and 6.4 ％,respectively.Multivariate analysis showed that control of extracranial lesions,Kamofsky score,target therapy and age were independent predictive factors of survival,and the OR value were 0.358 (95 ％ CI0.217-0.593),0.302 (95 ％ CI 0.182-0.502),0.170 (95 ％ CI 0.098-0.296) and 1.635 (95 ％ CI 1.010-2.647),respectively (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Radiation therapy is an effective treatment on non-small cell lung cancer with brain metastases.Biological target therapy can effectively improve survival.The survival time also is correlated with age,Karnofsky score and control of extracranial lesions.

BACKGROUND: Infection following kidney transplantation has become one of the main reasons for graft failure and death of allograft recipients. However, there is not a standard therapeutic scheme for infection following kidney transplantation. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical features and treatment measures of infection, additionally, to increase the cure rate of infection following kidney transplantation.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A retrospectively analysis was performed at the Organ Transplantation Center, the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical College from February 2006 to February 2008.PARTClPANTS: Eighteen cases of infections in 84 kidney allograft recipients.METHODS: All cases were checked by chest X-ray. Patients who had no significant lung infection symptoms or obvious signs received lung CT scan. Pathogen detection was performed, including hemoculture, urine culture, sputum culture, nose swabs culture, throat swab culture, checking clinically important cytomegalovirus (CMV), EB-DNA and mycoplasma in blood, acid-fast bacilli and eumycete culture in sputum. All cases of pulmonary infection underwent a comprehensive treatment-antiviral drugs, antibiotics and antifungal. Depending on the individual condition and absolute values of lymphocytes and CD4+T cells, the immunosuppressant was adjusted individually. The occurrence time, clinical symptom, auxiliary examination and treatment strategies were analyzed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The occurrence time of infection and clinical symptoms; imaging manifestation and results of pathogenic detection; selection of antibiotics and immunosuppressant adjustment.RESULTS: Among 18 cases, 11 cases (61.2%) were deceased-donor kidney transplant recipients. Inflection following kidney transplantation occurred in 12 cases (66.7%) within 3 months, and increased to 15 cases (83.3%) within 3-6 months. Of the 18 infection cases, 14 cases (77.8%) had a main symptom of fever. There were 15 cases (83.3%) of respiratory tract infection, including 13 cases (72.2%) of pulmonary infection. Fungal cultivation, especially Monilia, was positive in 6 cases. Three out of the 18 cases (16.7%) died, two of whom had CMV infection. Mixed infection occurred in all cases.CONCLUSION: Infected patients following kidney transplantation present with diversity pathogens, which are dominated by bacteria, fungus and virus. Severe pneumonia combined with CMV infection demonstrates that poor prognosis, fungal and virus infection following kidney transplantation should be given more attention. Combined de-escalation therapy is the main method, and timely adjustment and even discontinuance of immunosupprassive agents is one of the key points in the treatment of infection following kidney transplantation

Objective To afford an new effective imaging technique for the morphological observation of the normal male pelvic floor by observing the normal male puborectalis with transrectal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods Thirty-six normal males were examined by transrectal ultrasound and MRI,data of puborectalis were recorded and compared including starting point, end point,appearance, structure, thickness and the relationship with peripheral organs. Results The results including the appearance,direction and internal echo of puborectalis and the relationship with peripheral organs can be clearly displayed by transrectal ultrasound compared with MRI. The thickness of right and left puborectalis at rest measured in ultrasound and in MRI were (6.22±0.57)mm, (6.19±0.59) mm, (6.20±0.61) mm and (6.17±0.53) mm, respectively. The thickness by two methods and two sides had no significant differences (P>0.05). The thickness of puborectalis measured by two methods did not correlate with age,height,body weight,the volume of prostate and interspinal diameter respectively. Conclusions Transrectal ultrasound is a new imaging method to observe male puborectalis. Identification for nomal puborectalis sonography is the foundation of diagnosis pelvic floor disease.

Objective To compare the changes of some blood indices after treatment of intertro-chanteric fractures with conventional and minimally invasive dynamic hip scres (DHS) internal fixation so as to understand the influence of minimally invasive technique on physiology of the organism. Meth-ods The elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures in our department from July 2004 to May 2006 were divided randomly into two groups, ie, conventional DHS internal fixation group(Conventional group, 52 patients)and the minimally invasive DHS internal fixation group(Minimal invasion group, 54 patients). A comparison was done on data including white blood cells (WBC), hemoglobin (Hb), e-rythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). C reactive protein (CRP) and creatine kinase (CK) as well as re-cessive blood loss. Results The indices including transfusion, blood loss, recessive blood loss, ESR and CK in minimal invasion group showed less changes compared with conventional group. With statistical difference. But WBC and CRP showed no statisfical difference between both groups. Conclusion Minimally invasive DHS internal fvtation carl reduce operative trauma during treatment of intertrochanterie fractures in the elderly.
