BACKGROUND:A variety of embryonic stem cells induction and differentiation systems have been established so far, while the research that promotes embryonic stem cells to differentiate into hematopoietic stem cells is stil at an initial stage, and the induction efficiency needs to be improved.
OBJECTIVE:To active the Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway in mouse embryonic stem cells with exogenous win3a as an inducer, and then to observe whether the activation of this pathway wil promote the directional differentiation of embryonic stem cells into hematopoietic progenitor cells.
METHODS:The ES-E14TG2a mouse stem cells were cultured with the exogenous wnt3a (100 μg/L) for 21 days, the content ofβ-catenin was tested by cellimmunofluorescence and western blot, and expression of Wnt downstream target gene was detected by quantitative reverse transcription PCR to determine the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway. Single-layer adherent culture method was used to induce the directional differentiate of above-mentioned cells into hematopoietic stem cells, and detection of hematopoietic development associated surface marker CD34+/Sca-1+was achieved by flow cytometry;meanwhile, the expression of hematopoietic associated gene was measured by quantitative reverse transcription PCR.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We found thatβ-catenin accumulated in ES-E14TG2a mouse stem cells after cultured with wnt3a (100 μg/L) for 21 days;the expressions of Wnt downstream target genes such as Pitx2, Frizzled, Sox17 and Oct4 showed the different degrees in increase, meaning the activation of Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway. Furthermore, during the time that we used single-layer adherent culture method to induce hematopoietic stem cells, the CD34+/Sca-1+cells accounted for 20.2%of total cells at day 14, and control cells only accounted for 11.9%. Again, expression quantity of hematopoietic associated gene BMP4, FLK2 and CD34 increased while Smad5 was suppressed significantly. Our data suggest that sustaining action by wnt3a wil active Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway, and also promote the directional differentiation of ES-E14TG2a mouse stem cells into hematopoietic progenitor cells.

By analyzing data from a questionnaire survey on bilingual teaching, we evalueted the results of bilingual teaching for seven-year medical students and the main problems of bilingual teaching and solutions accordingly. An uneven English level on the part of teachers and students and imperfect materials etc. affect the overall results of bilingual teaching. Therefore persistent efforts need to be made in enhancing the teachers' English level, improving teaching methods and compiling proper textbooks so as to genuinely improve the bilingual teaching program.

Objective To investigate the association of the expressions of glomerular nephrin, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor (VEGFR) with proteinuria in preeclampsia rats. Methods A rat model of preeclampsia was developed by inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (L-NAME). The systolic blood pressure (SBP) and 24 h urine protein were compared among the normal female group (n=6), the normal pregnant group (n=8), nonpregnant control group (n=6) and preeclampsia group(n=8). The kidney biopsies of each group were observed by light and electron microscopy. The glomerular nephrin was detected by Western blotting and real-time PCR. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of WT1. The level of glomerular VEGF and VEGFR (Flt-1 and Flk-1) were evaluated by Western blotting. Results The level of glomerular nephrin protein in the rats with preeclampsia (0.0726±0.0074) was significantly lower compared with normal female group (0.3795±0.0509), normal pregnant group (0.2361±0.0437) and nonpregnant control group (0.7265±0.0503) (P＜0.01, respectively), while the levels of nephrin mRNA were not significantly different among 4 groups. The expression of WT1 was not significantly different among 4 groups as well. The level of glomerular VEGF in preeclampsia group (1.5429±0.0898) was significantly higher compared with normal female group (1.1870±0.1160), normal pregnant group (1.3741 ±0.1165) and nonpregnant control group (1.0155±0.0742)(P＜0.01,respectively). VEGFR (Flt-1 and Flk-1) was also significantly higher in preeclampsia rats compared with other control groups (P＜0.05, respectively). Conclusions In preeclampsia rats, nephrin is decreased significantly and the glomerular VEGF-VEGFR is increased significantly compared with the other control groups. The abnormal expression of nephrin and VEGF-VEGFR may be involved in the preeclampsia proteinuria. The underlying mechanism of this phenomenon needs further research.

There were 3 cases of cervical pachyderma,and 2 were fetal abnormal chromosome karyotypes. There was one case with multiple malformations, one with Dandy-Walker malformation and one with holoprosencephaly malformation,all were revealed fetal abnormal chromosome karyotypes. (2) A total of 516 cases with high risk of Down's syndrome and trisomy 18 by maternal serum screening were analysed for fetal chromosome karyotypes,and 14(2.710%) cases were proved with fetal abnormal chromosome karyotypes, which include 7 cases of Down's syndrome and 7 cases of other fetal abnormal chromosome karyotypes. (3) A total of 544 (516 + 28)cases with high risk by the combination of ultrasound and maternal serum screening were analysed for fetal chromosome karyotypes, and 21 (3.86%) cases were proved with fetal abnormal chromosome karyotypes, the rate of detection higher than only maternal serum screening 42.43%.Conclusions Fetal structure abnormalities were the effective ultrasound signs for fetus chromosomal abnormalities screening in the middle and late pregnancy. The combination of ultrasound and maternal serum screening can improve the rate of fetus chromosomal abnormalities screening and be an effective way to retrieve false-positive and lower risk of maternal serum screening.
