Hepatic cavernous hemangioma is the most common benign tumor of liver.Hepatic artery embolism chemotherapy is one of the commonly used treatment methods,but more and more related complications and sequelae have been reported recently,including obstructive jaundice caused by damaged biliary tract.Because the symptoms are not typical,obstructive jaundice might be misdiagnosed as malignant biliary tumor,which brought troubles to subsequent treatment.In this article,the clinical data of 2 patients with obstructive jaundice following transcatheter hepatic arterial chemoembolization for hepatic cavernous hemangioma were retrospectively analyzed,and the experience in the diagnosis and treatment of this disease was summarized.

Objective To observe secretive ability of three C-C chemokines, macrophage inflammatory protein-1?(MIP-1?),MIP-1? and regulated-upon activation.normal T-cell expressed and secretory factor(RANTES)by lympocytes and moncytes of cord blood from chinese necnates and peripheral blood from chinese adults.Method Using Ficoll density-gradient centrifugation and gelatin-coated flask,the Iympocytes and monocytes were isolated from cord blood samples of seventeen Chinese neonates and peripheral blood samples of twenty Chinese adults.Purified lymphocytes and monocytes were incubated with PMA and LPS,respectively.Supernants were tested by ELISA for concentrations of MIP-1?,MIP-1? and RANTES.Results Concentrations of MIP-1?, MIP-1? and RANTES in cord blood lymphocyte and monocyte were (3920?730)pg/ml, (4910?590)pg/ml,(1470?410)pg/ml,(3240?980)pg/ml,(1960?1300)pg/ml and (240?120)pg/ml,respectively,and in adults peripheral blood were (6560?840)pg/ml,(5810?1150)pg/ml,(2250?570)pg/ml,(3010?1350) pg/ml,(2280?870)pg/ml,(690?430)pg/ml,respectively.Cord blood lymphocyte and monocyte showed diminished ability to secrete RANTES than adult peripheral blood.Conclusions The diminished RANTES secretion of cord blood lymphocyte and monocyte may be releted to the pathogenesis of Chinese neonatal HIV infection,and indicated some immunotherapies are feasible for preventing neonate from HIV mother-to-child transmission.

Objective To observe the dose-effect relationship and side effects caused by epidural ketamine for patients after surgical intervention for knee stiffness (SIKS). Methods 80 patients undergoing SIKS at one knee joint under combined spinal and epidural anesthesia were randomly divided into 4 groups. Patients in these groups would receive analgesia respectively provided by femoral nerve block (FNB)(group C, n=20), FNB combined with 0.15 mg/kg epidural ketamine (group K1, n=20), FNB combined with 0.2 mg/kg epidural ketamine(group K2, n=20), and FNB combined with 0.25 mg/kg epidural ketamine (group K3, n=20). When spinal anesthesia was finished, the corresponding dose of ketamine was injected in patients in groups K1, K2, and K3 and 0.9% sodium chloride was injected in group C via an epidural catheter. After the operation, a catheter was left in the femoral nerve sheath and the solution of 60 mg ropivacaine in 30 ml (0.2%) was injected. All patients were performed rehabilitation therapy at postoperative 8, 24, 32, and 48 h and the same ropivacaine solution was injected in the femoral nerve sheath before each rehabilitation therapy started. Visual analogue score (VAS), active range of motion (AROM) of the suffered knee joint, and side effects were observed. Results There were 73 patients enrolled in the final statistic analysis. At postoperative 8 h, the VAS scores were lower in groups K1, K2 and K3 than in group C (P<0.05). At postoperative 24 h, 32 h, and 48 h, the VAS scores were lower in groups K2 and K3 than in groups C and K1 (P<0.05). AROM was larger in groups K2 and K3 than in groups C and K1. patients appeared psychiatric symptoms in group K3. Conclusion Small dose of epidural ketamine is a feasible method for analgesia in early rehabilitation therapy and the dose of 0.2 mg/kg is effective and safe.

AIM: To explore the molecular mechanism of Radix Ophioponis against vascular endothelial cell (VEC) apoptosis induced by LPS. METHODS: The apoptosis of human umbilical vascular endothelial cells(HUVEC) was induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS). The influence of Radix Ophiopogonis on the expression of bcl-2 and intracellular Ca 2+ was detected by flow cytometry and laser confocal microscope. RESULTS: The serum containing Radix Ophiopogonis suppressed the increase in bcl-2 expression and overloading of Ca 2+ induced by LPS in HUVEC.CONCLUSION: The mechanism of Radix Ophiopogonis against HUVEC apotosis may be related with its regulatory effect on bcl-2 expression and remission of Ca 2+ overloading.

BACKGROUND:Currently, there is a lack of efficient, non-invasive way to transplant stem cels to the target organ or tissue. Exploring a way to guide targeting transplantation of stem cels and to improve the efficiency of stem cel homing is now one of focuses in the field of stem cels research.
OBJECTIVE: To establish a simple and feasible method to chemicaly modify the cel surface using biotin-streptavidin reaction system, and to evaluate the efficiency of this method to label bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels (BMSCs) and its effects on cel biological functions.
METHODS: Passage 3 BMSCs were obtained by whole bone marrow culture method and verified by flow cytometry. Biotin, streptavidin, sulfonated biotin-N-hydroxy-succinimide were used to equip the adhesion molecule ligand, sialyated LewisX (SLeX), to the BMSCs surface. The labeling rate of BMSCs was assessed using fluorescence microscope, the vitality of BMSCs was evaluated by trypan blue staining, and the proliferation of BMSCs was evaluated by cel counting kit-8 assay. Adipogenic and osteogenic inductions were used to evaluate the effect of the method on the multi-differentiation function of BMSCs.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After culture for 2 weeks, passage 3 BMSCs were obtained and confirmed by expressing CD90, CD29 and lack of CD34, CD45. Biotin, streptavidin, sulfonated biotin-N-hydroxy-succinimide were successfuly used to equip sialyated LewisX (SLeX) to the BMSCs surface and had minor effects on the vitality, proliferation, and differentiation of BMSCs. This method was simple for surface modification and had a high modification rate of 88%. The homing of BMSCs modified by this method to the target organ or tissue could be greatly enhanced. Therefore, this method potentialy could have extensive and important applications.

DPP-4 inhibitors are new oral hypoglycemic drugs and hot spots developed and launched in recent years, and they pro-vide new choices for the clinical treatment of type 2 diabetes. In China, DPP-4 inhibitors that are approved to use in the treatment of type 2 diabetes are all imported products currently. In the paper, the current intellectual property situation of DPP-4 inhibitors that are developed and approved at home and abroad is researched and analyzed. Reasonable use of the patent information of DPP-4 inhibitors that is about to expire or have failed can provide good guidance for the subsequent development of DPP-4 inhibitors in domestic with promising curative effect and good market prospects, and can generate new patents in order to enhance the market competitiveness.
