ObjectiveTo investigate the factors correlated with compliance with rehabilitation in hemiplegic patients after stroke.MethodsIndividualized rehabilitational programs had been designed for 60 post-stroke hemiplegic patients. They were investigated with the questionnaire of compliance established by our-selves. ResultsThere was significant difference between compliant and incompliant patients in education attainment, economic condition, family relations, patient-doctor relation, depression, Barthel Index, and motor function. ConclusionDeveloping an effective rehabilitational program, establishing a sound doctor-patient relationship and a stable social support, can be helpful to improve the compliance with rehabilitation in hemiplegic patients after stroke.

Objective To test whether feeder cells derived from mouse embryonic stem cells(mESCs) could support the growth of mESCs themselves. Methods mESCs were induced to form mouse embryoid bodies(EB),and then fibroblast-like cells were derived from further differentiated mEB(mEB-dF),which served as feeder cells.The undifferentiation of mESCs grown on mEB-dF was confirmed by morphological analysis,colony efficiency and cell differentiation rate of mESCs,immunocytochemistry,alkaline phosphatase staining and RT-PCR.The pluripotency of mESCs grown on mEB-dF was examined by RT-PCR,inducing their differentiation in vivo and in vitro. Results(Forty-eight) fibroblast-like cells lines were derived from the same EB at three periods(d 10,d 15 and d 20),and five of them,mostly derived from d15 EB,were able to maintain mESCs in undifferentiated status and pluripotential ability over 10 passages.mESCs cultured on these feeder cell lines expressed alkaline phosphatase and specific mESCs markers,including SSEA-1,OCT-4,NANOG,and formed EB in vitro and teratomas in vivo.However,the majority of mEB-dF lines(43/48) has no such ability. Conclusion This study not only provides a novel feeder system for mESCs culture,avoiding lot of disadvantages of mouse embryo fibroblasts used as the feeder,but also indicates that fibroblast-like cells derived from mESCs take on different functions.The molecular mechanism of different function of these fibroblast cells is worthy of further investigations.

To analyze the incidence,clinical manifestations and causes of 42 in patients with anaphylaxis from 1990 and follow its change before and after 2005 retrospectively.The mean age was (39 ± 16) years.The ratio of male and female was 1:2.2.The incidence increased obviously after 2005 (30 vs.12).A majority of patients were females after 2005 (24 vs.5).The proportions of patients with impaired nerve system,circulatory system and hypotension decreased after 2005 (P ＜ 0.01,P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01).Anaphylaxis attacked more often intra-operatively after 2005 (43.3 ％ vs.1 / 12).The most common cause was drug(35/42),especially antibiotics(14/35).

Background In vitro study showed that chemotaxis consist of chemotaxis factor 4(CXCR4)and stromal cells derived factor-1(SDF-1)and may play a role in the orientation and migration of retinal progenitor cells (RPCs)toward lesion.Overexpression of CXCR4 in RPCs can enhance the chemotaxis activity.Objective This work was to explore the feasibility and underlying mechanism of up-regulation of CXCR4 on RPCs induced by hypoxia.Methods RPCs were retained in an incubator with normal O2volume(16％)or hypoxia condition(10％ O2)for 12 hours and 24 hours respectively.Flow cytometer cell analysis screening(FACS)was conduced to measure the proportion of CXCR4-expressing cells,and CXCR4,HIF-1 mRNA were analyzed by reverse transcription-polymerse chain reaction(RT-PCR).The chemotical effect of 30 mg/L SDF-1 to RPCs cultured under the hypoxia condition was assessed using Boyden chamber.Results The expression level of CXCR4(CXCR4 mRNA/β-actin mRNA)inRPCs cultured by 10％ O2 for 12 and 24 hours were 0.28+0.07and 0.48+0.17 and increased by 1.75 and 3.00 fold more than that of 16％ O2 culture group(0.16+0.02)(P＜0.01).The expression level of HIF-1 mRNA(HIF-1 mRNA/β-actin mRNA)in RPCs cultured by 10％ O2 for 12 and 24 hours were 0.18 ±0.07and 0.38 ±0.13 and increased by 3.00 and 6.30 fold more than that of 16％ O2 culture group(0.06±0.01)(P＜0.01).The chemotical effect of 30 μg/L SDF-1 to RPCs increased from 13.00％ in 16％ O2 culture group to 36.00％ and 46.00％ in the cells cultured by 10％ O2for 12 and 24 hours.FACS revealed that the proportion of CXCR4+ cells in hypoxia-exposure for 12 and 24 hours were 26.90％ and 46.10％,respectively,but that in 16％ O2 culture group was 9.10％,showing a statistically significant difference(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions RPCs induced by hypoxia can enhance the expression of CXCR4 in RPE cells and the chemotaxia to SDF-1.The overexpression of H1F-1 in RPCs may be involved in the up-regulation of CXCR4 expression.

AIM:To investigate the effect of RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor ( IGF1R) gene silencing on the growth , migration, and invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma cells .METHODS:The most effective siRNA targeting IGF1R gene was designed and screened .After lentiviral expression vector pLVX-shR-NA2-IGF1R carrying the most effective siRNA sequence was constructed , it was transfected into 293T cells and packed into pLVX-shRNA2-IGF1R lentivirus.Huh7 and Hep3B cells were infected with the pLVX-shRNA2-IGF1R lentivirus to screen the positive clone Huh7 cells and Hep3B cells with the lentivirus .These Huh7 cells and Hep3B cells were cultured to ana-lyze the mRNA level of IGF1R, cell proliferation, cell cycle, cell apoptosis, cell migration/invasion, and the protein levels of IGF1R, Ki-67, p-AKT, p-ERK1, Gli1,β-catenin, cyclin D1, p21 and BCL-XL.RESULTS:The mRNA expression of IGF1R in Huh7 cells and Hep3B cells with pLVX-shRNA2-IGF1R lentivirus was significantly reduced .The proliferation of these cells was remarkably inhibited , and the number in G 1 phase was increased significantly .The percentages of apop-totic cells were increased markedly , and the number of cell migration/invasion was decreased markedly .The protein levels of IGF1R, Ki-67, p-AKT, p-ERK1, Gli1,β-catenin, cyclin D1, p21 and BCL-XL were decreased significantly compared with the blank control group and negative control group .CONCLUSION:The RNAi-mediated IGF1R gene silencing sig-nificantly suppresses the growth and the malignant biological characteristics of Huh 7 cells and Hep3B cells, which may be involved in the reduced protein levels of the above genes induced by down -regulation of IGF1R expression.

Objective To discuss the changes of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in patients with primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS)and the correlation with renal pathological type,renal tubulointerstitial lesions and the clinical indicators.Methods Forty patients with PNS were divided into acute kidney injury (AKI) group and non-AKI group according to whether renal tubular necrosis (ATN) occurred in renal pathology.Moreover,on the basis of pathological type they were divided into minimal change disease (MCD) group,mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MsPGN) group,focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) group,membrane proliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) group and membranous nephropathy (MN) group.Twenty healthy subjects and normal kidney tissues which came from 20 patients with renal tumor nephrectomy and were distant from the tumor sites were the control groups.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to detect the serum and urine level of NGAL,and immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the expression of NGAL in the renal tissue.Results (1)The serum and urine level of NGAL and the expression of NGAL in the renal tissue in the PNS complicated with AKI group were significantly higher than that in the PNS without AKI group and in the control group(P ＜ 0.05).(2)The serum and urine level of NGAL and the expression of NGAL in the renal tissue were enhanced in MPGN group and FSGS group than that in the other three groups(P ＜ 0.05).(3) Before developing to severe tubulointerstitial lesions,with the aggravation of tubulointerstitial damage,the serum and urine level of NGAL and the expression of NGAL in the renal tissue were increased.But when renal tubular interstitial lesions developed to severe disease,serum level of NGAL and the expression of NGAL in the renal tissue were decreased(P ＜ 0.05).(4)The serum and urine level of NGAL and the expression of NGAL in the renal tissue were positively correlated with serum creatinine(r values were 0.198,0.352,0.146 respectively,P values were 0.048,0.000,0.028 respectively),were positively correlated with blood urea nitrogen(r values were 0.199,0.278,0.325 respectively,P values were 0.043,0.000,0.019 respectively),were negatively correlated with serum albumin(r values were-0.384,-0.318,-0.259 respectively,P values were 0.028,0.024,0.020 respectively) and were negatively correlated with urine osmotic pressure(r values were-0.250,-0.256,-0.277 respectively,P values were 0.012,0.027,0.002 respectively).Conclusion NGAL is a sensitive biological parameter for predicting AKI in the patients with PNS,and it can be used to evaluate the degree of tubulointerstitial lesions and renal function to a certain extent.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of intramyocardial controlled releasing base fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) stent combined with transplanting bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) in porcine acute myocardial infarction (AMI) models. Methods Eighteen porcines were divided into three groups (each n=6):transmyocardial revascularization (TMR)+naked stent (control group), TMR+b-FGF stent (b-FGF group) and TMR+b-FGF stent+BM-MSCs (b-FGF+BM-MSCs group). Acute myocardial infarction models were induced by ligating the left anterior descending artery in 18 porcine. In the control and b-FGF group, naked stents, b-FGF stents and b-FGF stent+BM-MSCs were implanted into TMR channels in the infarct and border zone. ~(99m)Tc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) myocardial perfusion imaging were performed to evaluate changes in myocardial blood flow, and echocardiography and immunohistochemical studies were also performed. Results After 6 weeks, the quality of myocardial infarction, fractional shortening, neovascular density in b-FGF and b-FGF stent+BM-MSCs group were higher than those of control gruop (P<0.05), and in b-FGF stent+BM-MSCs group was higher than those in b-FGF group (P<0.05). Conclusion BM-MSCs combined with controlled releasing intramyocardial b-FGF stent can improve the flow of myocardial infarction area, promote angiogenesis and heart function, and the therapeutic effect which can be evaluated with myocardial SPECT imaging.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of amplitude integrated electroencephalogram on early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of brain injury caused by neonatal asphyxia.Methods A total of 34 full-term asphyxiated neonates(asphyxia group)hospitalized in NICU of our hospital from January 2015 to September 2015 were selected;meanwhile,34 full-term healthy infants(control group)of the same term were selected.All cases were monitored for the activities of aEEG background,sleep-awakening cycle(SWC)and epileptic activity(SA)within 6 hours after birth.Meanwhile,the relationships between various indexes and asphyxia degree and brain injury were analyzed.Results The electroencephalogram of the asphyxia group was 52.9％and the rate of SWC was 58.8％,which were lower than those of the control group,and the difference had statistic significance(P<0.05).Meanwhile,neonates with epileptic activity in asphyxia group accounted for 11.8％,which was higher than that of control group significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion The AEEG changes of neonates at early period after birth are closely related to perinatal asphyxia and brain injury after asphyxia.The application of amplitude integrated electroencephalogram has an important significance on early diagnosis of neonatal asphyxia.
