Objective To establish normal range of components of cord blood cells in healthy fetuses from 19 to 37 weeks' gestation and to provide proof for diagnosis of hematological disorders in prenatal fetuses and premature infants.Methods Twelve hematological parameters were determined in 182 fetuses using Coulter GENS system 2 full automated blood cell counter,and the blood cells were classified by microscope.Results The number of white blood cell(WBC) was increased gradually from 3.58?10~9/L to 5.76?10~9/L with the gestational weeks increasing from 19 to 37 weeks.The differential counts indicated that the lymphocytes represented the main population.The number of lymphocytes and normoblast was decreased gradually and that of neutrophils was increased gradually.The numbers of monocytes,eosinophils and basophils remained stable as the increasing of gestational weeks.The red blood cell(RBC),hemoglobin(HGB) and hematocrit(HCT) were increased gradually but mean corpuscular volume(MCV) was decreased.The differences between mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH),platelet volume distribution width(PDW),mean platelet volume(MPV),plateletcrit(PCT) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration(MCHC) were not significant among different fetuses' ages.Conclusion The components of cord blood cells in healthy fetuses are dynamic and the establishment normal range of components of cord blood cells in healthy fetuses is helpful to diagnose the disorders in prenatal fetuses and premature infants.

To explore the differentiation of gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST) with synchronous carcinoma clinical and pathological features,diagnosis and differential diagnosis.Methods Clinical characteristics,pathological morphology and immunohistochemical staining were observed in 9 cases of GIST with synchronous carcinoma,with review of the relevant literature.Results Microscopically,in 4 cases GIST with esophageal carcinoma,most of tumor cells in central focus were squamous cells and keratin pearls which were well differentiated and the rest of tumor cells are basal like cells on the edge.In the other 5 cases (4 of them with gastric carcinoma and 1 with rectal cancer).Microscopically,the tumors were composed of dysplastic glands which presented as adenoid structures and poorly differentiated.The majority of gastric GIST were spindle cell tumors,which resembled smooth muscle tumors histologically and showed a variety of histological pattern,such as lace like pattern,palisading pattern,antique coins like pattern and eddy pattern.And a perinuclear vacuolization pattern was common.Immunohistochemistry showed that the tumor cells were positive for CK5/6,CK14 and p53,but negative for S-100,CK7 of the 4 cases GIST with esophageal carcinoma.In the other 5 cases (4 of them with gastric carcinoma and 1 with colorectal cancer),showed that CK7,CK20,CEA and HER-2 were positive and negative for S-100.In all the 9 case of GIST,the tumor cells were positive for CD34,CD117 (+),DOG1 and SMA,but negative for S-100,desmin,etc.Conclusion There are no special clinical symptoms in most of GIST with synchronous carcinoma,because these GISTs are generally incidental findings.The proliferative index of GIST with synchronous carcinoma is observably lower than that of GIST without synchronous carcinoma.Most GISTs with synchronous carcinoma can be treated by the standard treatment for the accompanying carcinoma,and do not need specific additional treatments.

Objective:To investigate the effect of human growth hormone releasing hormone receptor splice variant type 1 (GHRHR SV1) on the proliferation of human liver cancer HepG2 cells,and to clarify the proliferation effect of GHRHR SV1 on the human cancer cells.Methods:The GHRHR SV1 plasmids were transfected into the human HepG2 cells to construct the HepG2-SV1 cell line.HepG2 group(HepG2 cells),HepG2-empty group(HepG2-pcDNA3.0 cell line) and HepG2-SV1 group(HepG2-SV1 cells) were set up.PCR and Western blotting methods were used to identify the HepG2-SV1 cell line;CCK-8 method was used to detect prolifernation rate of cells;colony formation assay was used to detect the colony formation rate of cells;cell wound healing assay was used to evaluate the migration rate of cells.Results:The PCR and Western blotting results showed the HepG2-SV1 cell line expressed GHRHR SV1 steadily.The CCK-8 results showed that the proliferation rate of the HepG2-SV1 cells in HepG2-SV1 group was higher than that of the HepG2-pcDNA3.0 cells in HepG2-empty group(P<0.05).The colony formation assay results showed that the colony formation rate of HepG2-SV1 cells in HepG2-SV1 group was 3.5 times higher than that of the HepG2-pcDNA3.0 cells in HepG2-empty group(P<0.05).The cell wound scratch assay results showed that the migration rate of the HepG2-SV1 cells in HepG2-SV1 group was higher than that of the HepG2-pcDNA3.0 cells in HepG2-empty group(P<0.05).Conclusion:GHRHR SV1 could increase the proliferation of HepG2 cells.

Objective To evaluate the functional outcomes and complications of patients with bone tumors who were treated with the excision-alcoholization-replantation (EAR) method. Methods From August 1965 to August 2003, 191 patients treated with the EAR method who had suitable follow-up were evaluated in our department, including 102 males and 89 females with an average age of 20 years (range, 10-62). On the basis of Enneking tumor staging, 136 patients were identified II B stage, 25 I B stage, and 30 invasive benign tumors and tumor-like lesion. The length of the resected part ranged from 5 cm to 26 cm, with marginal resection in 30 cases, wide resection in 116. The oncological parameters that were evaluated included survival of the patients, local recurrence, and metastasis. Complications included non-union, infection, and fracture of the grafts. Mankin evaluation system was used to assess functional outcomes. Results The mean follow-up time was 32 months (range, 1-372), 52 patients died with disease at the final follow-up. Five-year survival rates of high grade sarcoma and low grade sarcoma were 59% and 90%, respectively, with statistical significance (P=0.02). Lung metastasis were demonstrated in 52 patients (27.2%, 52/191), 51 (26.7%, 51/191) had local recurrence. Except the tumor factor, the total complication rate was 50.3%(96/191). Local complications included 33 nonunion (17.3%, 33/191), 39 fracture of the grafts (20.4%, 39/191), 39 infections of the graft (20.4%, 39/191), 15 fracture of internal fixation (7.9%, 15/191), 5 instability or semiluxation of the joint (2.6%, 5/191). The 5-year survival rate of inactivated bone was 55%. On the basis of Mankin functional evaluation, the satisfied rate was 50.3%. At last there were 141 patients (73.8%, 141/191) preserved their extremities. Conclusion Compared to other methods in the same period, EAR method is considered on the same level of safety in oncology, which superiorities are economic-applicable to patients and the well fitness of bone graft with the defects.

Objective To explore the roles of Apelin in the development of gastric carcinoma (GC) and interrelation with MVD. Methods Immunohistochemical streptacidin/peroxidase (SP) technique was adopted to examine the expressions of Apelin in 20 cases of normal gastric mucosa, 20 cases of atypical hyperplasia (Dys) and 60 cases of gastric carcinoma, and to examine MVD by CD34 staining. Results With the development of GC, the positive rate of Apelin was increased gradually, namely 5.0 %(1/20) in normal gastric mucosa group, 15.0 %(3/20) in atypical hyperplasia group and 83.3 %(50/60) in gastric carcinoma. Expression of Apelin was correlated with TNM stage and differentiation. MVD in the Apelin positive group (47.01±11.66) was significantly higher than that in the negative group(38.90±10.21); MVD of the Apelin positive group expression was correlated with the histologic stage, serosa infiltration and lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). Conclusion Apelin may contribute to the development of GC by activating tumour neoangiogenesis.

Objective To explore the vascular endothelial function in individuals with normal glucose tolerance (NGT),impaired glucose tolerance (IGT),and type 2 diabetes mellitus,and to study the role played by PPARγcoactivator 1 α (PGC-1 α) in diabetic macrovascular function.Methods A total of 94 subjects with NGT,87with IGT,and 306 with type 2 diabetes mellitus were recruited in the study.Carotid flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD),glyceryl trinitrate dilatation (GTN),and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) were assessed by highresolution B-mode color vascular Doppler instrument.Finally,correlation analysis was conducted.NO,Akt-Ser473phosphorylation levels,IL-β,and PGC-1 α mRNA expression levels were measured by means of nitrate reductase,western blot,and reverse transcriptase real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR assay methods in peripheral blood mononuclear cells respectively.Results FMD in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetic group was significantly lower than that in NGT and IGT groups(P＜0.01).GTN and CIMT showed no difference.PGC-1 α mRNA transcription level in diabetic group was significantly lower than that in non-diabetic groups (P＜0.01).Correlation analysis showed that PGC-1 α was positively correlated with FMD and GTN (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Logistic regression analysis revealed that PGC-1 α was independently associated with FMD (P ＜ 0.01) after adjusting other influencing factors.Conclusion FMD is a more sensitive early warning indicator of endothelial function than CIMT and GTN.As indices of atherosclerosis,CIMT and GTN are more or less focused on the progression of macrovascular complications.PGC-1 α is a protective factor of macro-vasculature in diabetes mellitus,and its effect may be achieved through the protection of the vascular endothelium.
