The hypothesis that tumor comes from stem cells has been demonstrated in various human tumors.Cancer is not only a genetic disease but also a stem cell disease. It is a key to regeneration, mutations and recurrence of tumors that gene mutations affect stem cells, and then stem cells mutate to cancer stem cells. In an effort to review the evidence that liver cancer stem cells exist, two fundamental questions must be addressed. First, do hepatocellular carcinomas(HCC)arise from liver stem cells? Second, do HCCs contain cells that possess properties of cancer stem cells?More recently, there is a hypothesis that HCC arise from maturation arrest of liver stem cells. Analysis of the cells in HCC supports the presence of cells with stem-cell properties(ie, immortality, transplantability, and resistance to therapy). However, definitive markers for these putative cancer stem cells have not yet been found and a liver cancer stem cell has not been isolated.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of GlideScope~ video laryngoscope in anesthetic endotracheal intubation.Methods Two hundred patients who received surgery under general anesthesia with ASA I or II were involved in this study.One hundred patients were assigned to be intubated with GlideScope~(GS group) and the other 100 with size 3 Macintosh laryngoscope(ML group).The following data were recorded and analyzed: noninvasive blood pressure(NBP),heart rate(HR) at the different time points of intubation process,glottic exposure time,CormarkLehane grade,tracheal intubation time and total intubation attempts. Results The rise of NBP and HR in ML group were significantly higher than those in GS group(P

Spinal cord injury is one of the important field of neuroscience, and neural tract tracing techniques are important research tools. The neural fiber types in the spinal cord are complex, and there are some difference in structures between human beings and animals. This article reviewed different types of neural fibers closely related with spinal cord injury and regeneration, the difference between human beings and animals, and the application of neural tract tracing techniques in the study of spinal cord injury and regeneration.
