[Objective] To study the microstructure of ligamentum fiavum of the early dynamic imbalanced rats.[Methods]The dynamic imbalanced rat mode was established.The samples were taken and studied by electron microscopy at 3、5、15、30、60 days after operation.[Results]A large number of fibroblasts in the ligamentum flavum were found at 3 days after the neck muscles were resected.The fibroblasts had an active metabolism,and around them the collagen fibers were markedly increased at 5 days.The number of fibroblasts was reduced,but the matrices were increased at 15 days.At 30 days,fibroblasts became slender,and fibers looked like waves.At 60 days,the number and appearance of the fibroblasts of the ligamentum fiavum were similar to that of the control group.The fibers were regularly arranged and became larger than that of the colltrol group.[Conclusion]The number of fibroblasts and the collagen fibers in the ligamentum flavum of the dynamic imbanlanced rats has a regular change after operation.

Objective To investigate that whether the immuno-modulatory capacity is intact in myelodysplastic syndrome-refractory anemia (MDS-RA) derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) and what are the differences compare with those from normal donors.Methods Isolating MSC from MDS and normal donors respectively and exam their differences on T lymphocyte activation,proliferation and suppression.Results The results showed that the capacity of suppressing T cell proliferation and activation is weakened.Conclusion We propose that MSCs from pathological environment might be abnormal and should not be used for autologous transplantation.

ObjectiveTo evaluate portal vein chemotherapy for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombi(PVTT).MethodsFourty five HCC patients with tumor thrombi in the main portal vein or the first branches undergoing surgical resection were divided into two groups receiving postoperative intraarterial and intraportal chemotherapy (21 cases), and intraarterial chemotherapy only (24 cases).ResultsThe survival rates of 6,12,18 months was 86%, 76% and 48% in the treatment group compared with 75%, 58% and 33% in the control group respectively. There were significant difference between the two groups.Conclusion Hepatectomy for HCC with removal of tumor thrombi and transcatheter hepatic arterial and portal vein chemotherapy is an effective treatment for HCC with PVTT.

ObjectiveTo evaluate mammaglobin (hMAM) mRNA expression as a tumor marker for micrometastatic carcinoma cells in the peripheral blood of patients with breast cancer (BC). MethodsTotal RNA extracted from a breast carcinoma cell line SKBR3 was subjected to analysis of hMAM mRNA expression by RT-PCR. The sensitivity of FQ-PCR to detect a SKBR3 cell at a level of 10 7 was established. Peripheral blood of 63 BC patients was examined by this method. ResultsBlood samples were positive in 19 out of 63 (30%) patients with breast carcinomas. None of the patients with other cancer (25 cases) or benign breast disease (13 cases) was positive and only 1 out of 31 healthy volunteers was found with detectable hMAM mRNA expression in the peripheral blood. ConclusionFluorescence quantitative (FQ) PCR combined with nest PCR was a sensitive method in detecting micrometastases of breast cancer.

Objective: To study the effects of morphine hydrochloride and temperature on the cephalopharyngeal skeleton of the larvae of Parasarcophaga crassipalpis in Shijiazhuan, Hebei, so as to provide evidence for forensic toxicologic entomology of sarcosaphagous flies and inference of the postmortem interval(PMI) in Shijiazhuang. Methods: Adult Parasarcophaga crassipalpis were collected. Four domestic rabbits were used in this experiment, with one receiving normal saline (control) and the others receiving morphine hydrochloride (0. 5,1. 0 and 2. 0 folds of lethal doses) via ear vein injection. Then the rabbits were hit on the head and the muscle was marked with M0, M1, M2 and M3, then the larvae were transferred to the muscle sites at 24°C, 28°C and 32°C. When larvae were laid, 10 of them were randomly sampled from each group at 12 h intervals until the beginning of the prepuparial stage. The larvae were collected every 12 h, fixed with boiling water, and stored as specimen. The scolex of the larvae was sparated and then the cephalopharyngeal skeleton was separated symmetrically, observed and photographed. Finally the indices, including the areas of different parts of cephalopharyngeal skeleton, sclerotized area, and average optical density were determined using digital image processing equipment. Results: (1) The larvae of Parasarcophaga crassipalpis grew faster with the increase of morphine hydrochloride concentration and the temperature. (2)The color of the cephalophargngeal skeleton of the larvae changed from yellow to dark brown as time went by. Meanwhile, the degree and range of chitinazation were increased, accompanied by increase of the sclerotized area. The attached larval mouth (shaped like a dot) could be observed during the third age. (3) The areas of the larval mouth hook and the larval pharyngeal sclerite increased with time. Especially, remarkable changes were observed during the fold period, and the changes reached their maximum in the third age, and then remained basically unchanged. (4) The sclerotized areas and the average optical densities of the cephalopharyngeal skeleton kept an increasing tendency till the end of the third age. The periods needed for reaching the maximal optical density and sclerotized area were greatly longer than that needed for reaching the maximal area of the cephalopharyngeal skeleton. Conclusion: The sclerotized area and the average optical density of the mouth hook and the pharyngeal sclerite of the larvae of Parasarcophaga crassipalpis keep increasing till the end of the third stage, and they are ideal indices for deducing PMI.

[Objective] To discuss the mechanism and relative problems of lumbar traction. [Method] Relevant articles and retrospect clinical data in the author's hospital were reviewed. Review relevant articles and retrospect clinical data of our hospital. [ Result ] Traction force : 40 kg + 15% ～ 20% of body weight, fineness rate reached 83.5% in 1606 patients being treated. According to course of disease, fineness rate was 90. 1% in the group of less than 3 years, 68.2% in the group of more than 3 years. [ Conclusion] Lumbosacral nerve root leave the peak of the protruding nucleus and establish a new harmonious "root-disc" relationship after traction. The pressure and tension to the nerve root reduces or disappears, meanwhile, the pain of low back and leg is alleviated or eradicated. Appropriate traction weight and correct traction body posture are key factors of good therapeutic effect.

Objective: To analyze the circulating endothelial cells (CECs) and circulating endothelial precursors (CEPs) in peripheral blood of tumor patients. Methods: CECs and CEPs were enumerated in 57 tumor patients and 15 healthy controls by 3-color flow cytometry. The serum level of angiogenesis related cytokines(VEGF, bFGF)was determined by ELISA method. Results: In tumor patients, mean value of CECs and CEPs was (0.378?0.047)% and (0.059?0.013)% respectively. The serum level of VEGF and bFGF were (295.58?59.56) ng/L and (28.73?7.40) ng/L. The amount of CECs/CEPs positively correlated with the serum level of VEGF and bFGF. Conclusions: The CECs/CEPs and serum level of VEGF and bFGF of tumor patients was higher than those of normal controls. VEGF and bFGF may participate into the course of endothelial progenitors mobilization.
