Objective To evaluate the relationship between stenosis of intra- or extra-cranial cerebral large artery and capsular warning syndrome(CWS). Methods Eleven consecutive CWS patients hospitalized during period of time from November 2008 to December 2009 were retrospectively analyzed.Result In these 11 patients with CWS, 5 patients had motor symptoms only, 4 patients had pure sensory symptoms, and 2 patients had sensorimotor symptoms. Ten patients underwent cervical contrast-enhanced MRA and intracranial MRA examination. The results showed no sign of arterial stenosis. Seven CWS patients eventually had strokes, 1 progressed to stroke despite receiving the therapy of antiplatelet and anticoagulation. All stroke lesions were located in the capsula interna. All the CWS patients had vascular risks: 7 were smoker, 8 had hypertension, 1 had diabetes mellitus, and 5 had hyperlipidemia. One patient had a history of previous stroke; no patient had a history of ischemic heart disease or atrial fibrillation. At follow-up(10. 2 ±3.4)mouths, the average modified Rankin scale score for all patients was 0. 73 ± 1.20.Conclusion CWS was not associated with stenosis of the intra and extra-cranial large cerebral arteries.CWS may be associated with small-vessel single-penetrator disease.

Objective To explore the feasibility of labeling in vitro rabbit osteoblasts with Qtracker and the features of Qtracker-labeled rabbit osteoblasts. Methods A healthy male rabbit, 3 months old, weighing 2 kg, was used in this study. After bone marrow was aspirated, bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were isolated and cultured using the adherence method in vitro. The third passage of BMSCs was induced into osteablasts before incubation with Qtracker at concentrations of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 nmol/10~6 cells (Groups A, B, C, D, E, F respectively). Cells not labeled by Qtracker served as negative control (Group G). The following parameters were measured: induction, differentiation and determination of rabbit osteoblasts; the optimal mass concentration of Qtracker labeling by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry; the cell sur-vival rates at various concentrations of Qtraeker labeling by trypan-blue exclusion; Qtracker-labeled cell pro-liferation by MTr. Results The primary and the passage rabbit BMSCs were chiefly of fusiform shape. Rabbit BMSCs differentiated into osteoblasts following induction. The osteoblasts cytoplasm showed green fluorescence under fluorescence microscopy after being labeled by Qtracker. The mean labeling rate increased with the increased concentration of Qtracker, reaching up to (93.58±2.08) % after incubation at 8 nmol/ 10~6 cells by fluorescence microscopy, and (95.24±1.31) % by flow cytometry. There were no significant differences between Groups D, E, F(P>0.05), but significant differences were found between Groups A, B, C and Groups D, E, F (P<0.05). The labeling rate for Group G was 0. The cell survival rates were all above 96% (P>0.05) . No significant differences were found in the cell proliferation among various con-centrations (P>0.05). Conclusions Qtraeker can be used as a labeling marker for rabbit osteoblasts. When the concentration is at 8 nmol/10~6 cells, optimal labeling effect can be achieved. Rabbit osteoblasts labeled with Qtracker are of high efficiency and safety.
