BACKGROUND:Menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cels are proved to be a new type of adult stem cels. To date, little is reported on the methods of establishing this kind of cel lines systematicaly.
OBJECTIVE:To isolate, culture, identify and finaly establish menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cel lines.
METHODS:Menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cels were isolated from the menstrual blood of healthy female donors and cultured accordingly using density gradient centrifugation method. Cel morphology and proliferation characteristics were observed, and proliferative ability was detected by cel counting kit-8 assay. Cels were colected periodicaly for karyotype analysis. Expressions of cel surface antigens such as CD34, CD38, CD44, CD45, CD73, CD90, CD105 and Oct-4 were analyzed using flow cytometry. Cel pluripotency were identified by inducing adipogenesis and osteogenesis in vitro.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We successfuly established four menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cel lines from the menstrual blood of six healthy volunteers. The cultured cel lines had a typical spindle shape and kept normal 46, XX karyotype. The cels grew rapidly and entered into the logarithmic growth phase at 48 hours after passaging. The results of flow cytometry showed that menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cels were positive for CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105 and Oct-4, while negative for CD38, CD34 and CD45. Menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cels were positive for oil red O staining at 22 days after adipogenic induction and also positive for alizarin red staining at 2 weeks after osteogenetic induction. In conclusion, our study suggests that menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cels with stable karyotype and pluripotency can proliferate quickly, and we can provide a new resource for stem cel therapy and regenerative medicine through establishing the menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal stem cel lines.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of epicardial transesophageal echocardiography (ETE) in cardiac surgeries. Methods Using the transesophageal multi-plane ultrasonic probe of GE company, ETE were performed for a total of 53 patients undergoing cardiac surgeries with extracorporeal circulation and heart re-beat, evaluating valvular function, left ventricular systolic function and residual shunts. Results Qualiifed ETE images were obtained in all of the 53 cases without complications of infection, bleeding and serious arrhythmia. Intraoperative regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction happened in 5 cases and was promptly handled. Residual mitral regurgitation after valvular replacement was found in one case, which was reduced by valvuloplasty. One case showed moderate tricuspid regurgitation and another two cases indicated residual shunt. All the problems in the above cases were corrected in immediate surgeries. Moreover, the pressure gradient of one hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathic patient fell significantly to 8 mmHg after successful myectomy (the blood flow velocity fell from 3.2 m/s to 1.4 m/s). Conclusion Epicardial transesophageal echocardiogramphic examination is easy to handle and useful in monitoring abnormalities in cardiac surgery by providing hemodynamic and anatomic information.

Objective To study genotypes,antibiotic resistance and epidemiology of extendedspectrum β-lactamases (ESBL)-producing Shigella isolated in Tianjin,and to discuss the relationship between ESBL-producing Shigella and drug-resistance plasmid.Methods A total of 136 Shigella spp.were isolated from stool specimens of patients with diarrhea who presented mainly with bloody purulent stool from Tianjin Children's Hospital,Tianjin Medical University No.2 Hospital and Tianjin No.1 Central Hospital between May 2009 and September 2010.Suspicious ESBL-producing isolates were screened by K-B disc diffusion method. The conjugation experiment was performed in the confirmed ESBL-producing strains and antibiotic resistance was compared between clinical strains and transconjugants to confirm the plasmid-mediated resistance. The genotypes of these isolates were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using universal primers for TEM,SHV,CTX-M-1 group,CTX-M-2 group,CTX-M-9 group,respectively.Intergenic consensus PCR (ERIC-PCR) was employed to understand the molecular homology of the ESBL-producing isolates. The data were analyzed by x2 test.ResultsESBL were identified in 14.7％ (20/136) of Shigella isolates,but no AmpC enzyme were detected.Among all the Shigella isolates,16 strains were genotype CTX-M-14,4 were genotype CTX-M-15.The strains with CTX-M ESBL were resistant to multiple antibiotics,while 100％ sensitive to imipenem.The transconjugant test of 18 ESBL-producing isolates were positive,and these conjugations were only resistant to β-lactamases. Conclusions CTX-M type is the common genotype of ESBL-producing Shigella isolates in Tianjin. ESBL-producing is the main cause of multiple resistance to β-lactams.The transmission of CTX-M producing strains is mainly mediated by plasmids.

A simple and reliable high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been developed for the simultaneous quantification of five major bioactive components in ‘Shu-Jin-Zhi-Tong' capsules (SJZTC), for the purposes of quality control of this commonly prescribed traditional Chinese medicine. Under the optimum conditions, excellent separation was achieved, and the assay was fully validated in terms of linearity, precision, repeatability, stability and accuracy. The validated method was applied successfully to the determination of the five compounds in SJZTC samples from different production batches. The HPLC method can be used as a valid analytical method to evaluate the intrinsic quality of SJZTC.

Objective To investigate the effects of Shouwu-Yizhi capsule on learning and memory, and the expressions of presenilin 1(PS1),β-amyloid precursor protein (APP) mRNAs in the hippocampus following cerebral ischemia reperfusion in rats. Methods Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly divided into a Shouwu-Yizhi group, a piracetam group, a model group, and a sham operation group with 20 rats in each group. Focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion model was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion for 2 hours. Seven days after ischemia reperfusion, the rats in the Shouwu-Yizhi and piracetam groups were administered intragastrically Shouwu-Yizhi solution (52 mg/ml) and piracetam solution (28 mg/ml) for 28 days, both in dose of 1 ml/(100 g?d) for 28 days;and the rats in the model and sham operation groups were given intragastrically equivalent volumes of normal saline. Learning and memory were tested using the Morris water maze, and the expressions of PS1 and APP mRNAs were measured using real-time quantitative fluorescent PCR. Results Water maze test showed that the escape latency (12.98±0.70s vs. 9.43±0.78s) was significantly shorter, and the frequency of crossing platform (5.08±0.39 vs. 7.62±0.43) significantly lower in the model groupthan those in the sham operation group; the escape latency (9.77±0.58s vs. 12.98±0.70s) was significantly shorter and the frequency of crossing platform (7.40±0.44 vs. 5.08±0.39) significantly lower in the Shouwu-Yizhi group than those in the model group(all P<0.01). The expressions of PS1 (0.99±0.01 vs. 1.08± 0.03)and APP (1.06±0.03 vs. 1.12±0.04) mRNAs in the hippocampus in the Shouwu-Yizhi group were significantly decreased than those in the model group (P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusion Shouwu-Yizhi capsule may inhibit the expressions of PS1 and APP mRNAs in the hippocampus, and improve the learning and memory following cerebral ischemia reperfusion in rats.
