Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2016;20(50):7469-7474
BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can be differentiated into myocardial cel s induced by 5-azacytidine in vitro, which provides an opportunity for cel transplantation in the treatment of heart disease. OBJECTIVE:To study the induction effects of 5-azacytidine at different concentrations on the myocardial differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in rats. METHODS:Passage 3 bone marrow mesechymal stem cel s were incubated with DMEM containing 0, 5, 10, 20μmol/L 5-azacytidine for 24 hours, and then the induced medium was replaced by DMEM containing 5%fetal bovine serum for subsequent 28-day culture. Afterwards, expression of cardiac troponin I was detected by immunocytochemical method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Cel death occurred at 24 hours after 5-azacytidine induction, which was more obvious in the 20μmol/L group than the 5 and 10μmol/L groups. The positive expression of cardiac troponin I was significantly lower in the 5μmol/L group than the 10 and 20μmol/L groups (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the 10 and 20μmol/L groups (P>0.05). These experimental findings indicate that 5-azacytidine can induce the differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s into myocardial cel s in vitro, and its optimal concentration is 10μmol/L.

The dialysis method was employed to prepare blank and doxorubicin (DOX) loaded micelles formed by temperature- and pH- sensitive polyhistidine-co-polyDL-lactide-co-glycolide-co-polyethyleneglycol-co-polyDL-lactide-co-glycolide-co-polyhistidine (PHis-b-PLGA-b-PEG-b-PLGA-b-PHis). The critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of the copolymers were measured with Pyrene Fluorescent Probe Technique. The temperature- and pH- sensitive properties of the blank micelles solution were investigated by optical transmittance measurement. The morphology and diameter of DOX micelles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The entrapment rate and drug-loading rate were determined with dialysis method. The in vitro release study was further performed to examine the temperature- and pH-responsive drug release behavior from DOX-loaded micelles. The results indicated that the CMC, entrapment efficiency and drug-loaded amount of the micelles were 7.5 x 10(-3) g x L(-1), 85.2 +/- 3.1% and 10.4 +/- 4.5%, respectively. The DOX micelle was globular-shaped with a mean diameter of 91.1 +/- 15.8 nm. The transmittance of micelle solution consistently increased with the increasing temperature or decreasing pH. In comparison to the drug release profile at physiological conditions (37 degrees C, pH 7.4), the DOX-loaded micelles showed faster drug release rate at higher temperature (41 degrees C), lower pH (pH 7.0, pH 6.5, pH 5.0) or higher temperature and lower pH (41 degrees C, pH 5.0). This indicated that the micelles showed a temperature and pH-triggered drug release pattern. Base on the above results, it can be concluded that PHis-b-PLGA-b-PEG-b-PLGA-b-PHis block copolymer micelles which respond to temperature and pH stimuli are promising smart carriers for anti-tumor drugs with the advantages of temperature- and pH- triggered drug release.

Purpose:Clinical research has been done to show whether continuous infusion of navelbine can increase curative effect and decrease toxicity.Methods:Patients studied were non operable NSCLC and recurrent or metastatic breast cancer. Navelbine is given through a catheter in the venae subclavia by continuous infusion for 24 hours. Regimen:NVB 10 mg/iv/day 1+NVB 10 mg/iv continuous infusion 24 h/day 1—5+DDP 40 mg/iv 2h/day 1—3+Gransetron 3 mg/iv day1,3,5 given every 21 days. Results:Among 47 patients 35 patients were NSCLC and 12 patients were breast cancer. Average age was 58.9 years. Of the NSCLC patients, 12 were squamous cell carcinoma and 23 patients were adenocarcinoma; two patients were stage Ⅱ and 19 patients stage Ⅲ, 19 patients stage Ⅳ. All of the breast cancer cases were infiltrative duct carcinoma. Three patients were stage Ⅱ and nine patients were stage Ⅳ. Of the 47 patients, 44 patients were evaluable for response and 47 patients for toxicity. Response rate of NSCLC was 57%(19 pr) and breast cancer 63% (1 cr, 6 pr). Main toxicity was granulocytopenia and vomiting. WHO Ⅲ—Ⅳ grade granulocytopenia was 40% and vomiting 6.4%. Peripheral nerves toxicity was mild and only 6.4% patients had WHO I grade peripheral sensory nerve damage. No patients had severe nerve toxicity such as enteroplegia.Conclusions:Comparison of continuous infusion Navelbine and Cisplatin with classic usage of navelbine for management of NSCLC and breast cancer showed increased response rate and decreased toxicity. Administration through catheter venae subclavia can avoid chemo phlebitis. [

Objective To explore the differences and similarities of clinical characteristics,pathological features, treatment and prognosis between primary gastric lymphoma(PGL)and primary intestinal lymphoma (PIL). Methods The clinical characteristics, pathological features, therapeutic results, the detection of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) and prognosis of 48 PGL cases and 15 PIL cases were retrospectively analyzed. Results There was no statistical significance in age, gender, abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding, B symptoms, clinical stage, mortality between PGL and PIL groups (P>0. 05). However, there were significant differences in the pathological type, acute abdomen emergency surgery between these two groups (P<0. 05). There was 12 Hp positive cases in mucosalassociated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of PGL group (12/19), and 5 Hp positive cases in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (5/20). There was significant difference in Hp detection rate of these two pathological types. Hp was not found in PIL group. The Cox multivariate analysis indicated that stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ was the independent adverse factors affecting PGL prognosis (P<0. 05).Conclusions Mainly histological types are DLBCL and MALT lymphoma in PGL, and DLBCL in PIL.PIL predispose to T-cell lymphoma compared with PGL. MALT lymphoma is rare in PIL group. The mainly clinical stage is Ⅲ-Ⅳ both in PGL group and PIL group. Emergency surgery is often needed in PIL because of intussusception or perforation. The prognosis of PGL is correlated with the stage and the prognosis of PIL are correlated with the stage, B symptoms and T cell phenotype.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of antipsychotic drugs in schizophrenia patients. METHODS:The general information and antipsychotic treatment information,which were extracted from the database of prior drug investigation in Mental Health Center of Hebei Province in 2002,2006 and investigation data in 2012 of 5014 schizophrenia patients,were ana-lyzed. RESULTS:Over time,the frequency of the first generation antipsychotic drugs decreased(P<0.05),while that of the sec-ond generation antipsychotic drugs increased (P<0.01). The frequency of long-acting antipsychotic drugs were generally low among outpatients and inpatients in 2002,2006,2012,with statistical significance(P<0.01). There were no significant difference in the proportion of outpatients receiving antipsychotic drugs combination treatment and monotherapy (P>0.05). Over time,the proportion of inpatients receiving monotherapy decreased,while that of inpatients receiving combination treatment increased (χ2=18.682,P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:The second generation antipsychotic drugs have gradually replaced the first generation antipsy-chotic drugs,and have became the leading drugs in the treatment of schizophrenia in Hebei province. The proportion of inpatients receiving combination treatment has increased,which is different from the domestic and foreign prevention and treatment guide-lines.
