Objective To study the feasibility of adult stem cell therapy in motor neuron disease. Methods From May 2008 to March 2010, twenty patients with motor neuron disease were treated with adult stem cell. The patients were divided into two groups with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell in 14 cases (group A)and autologous Hematopoietic stem cell in 6 cases( group B). 4 ml stem cell ( ＞ 1.0 × 107) were given through subarachnoid injection. 1.0 × 107 cell were injected each time, and rehabilitation were performed simultaneously. Results Seven patients have improved in the dysphagia, bucking, continuity of language and thinking and reaction after 2 weeks' treatment. Seven patients improved remarkably in myodynamia( from Ⅲ to Ⅳ ). There was no effect observed in 6 patients. Three patients died during the follow up for 3 - 6 months. Three patients were followed up for 18 to 24 months and their condition did not getting worse. Conclusion Adult stem cell transplantation may be a safe and practical new ways to treat motor neuron disease.

Objective To study the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MS) and anterior circulation infarction (ACI). Methods 271 ACI patients (166 men and 105 women) who fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of China Guideline for Cerebrovascular Disease Prevention and Treatment were enrolled. 147 control subjects (67 men and 80 women) without the clinical signs of cerebral infarction but with detailed case history, physical examination and CT or MRI were also selected. The prevalence and risk of MS were observed in the ACI and control group. MS was defined with the modified criteria in Chinese. Results The prevalence of MS in the ACI group and control subjects was respectively 43.17% and 19.05%. The prevalence of MS was significantly higher in the ACI group as compared with the control subjects (P<0.01). The component level of MS were significandy different between the two groups (P< 0.05). MS was associated with a 3.7 fold higher risk of ACI (P<0.01). Conclusions There is a close relationship between MS and ACI. MS is an important risk factor of ACI.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of dopamine producing cells (DPCs) derived from human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) in treatment in model rats with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Methods The cultured hUC-MSCs were induced into DPCs in vitro. The dopamine (DA) and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) expression levels were detected by ELISA to identify the DPCs. The PD rat model was established by injecting 6-OHDA into the right substantia nigra (SN). A total of 60 successfulled PD model rats were randomized into hUC-MSCs-DPCs group (5 × 105 hUC-MSCs-DPCs were transplanted into right striatum, n=20), hUC-MSCs group (5 × 105 hUC-MSCs were transplanted, n=20) and control group (same volume PBS, n=20). All the transplanted cells were labeled with CM-Dil. The apomorphine induced rotation behavior was assessed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after cell transplantation. The rats were executed after 12 weeks. The immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) expression level, and FLUORO-JADE? C staining was used to test the apoptotic neurons in brain of rats. Results The hUC-MSCs-DPCs were induced successfully in vitro, which showed a high expression level of DA and GDNF. Furthermore, at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after cell transplantation, the rotation behavior was improved, and expression levels of GDNF were significantly higher in hUC-MSCs-DPCs group than those of hUC-MSCs group and control group (P<0.05). In addition, we found that most of the transplanted TH+hUC-MSCs-DPCs at the right striatum and a few cells around both the left and the right substantia nigra at 12 weeks after transplantation. The apoptotic neurons were decreased after cell transplantation in hUC-MSCs-DPCs group than that of control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The hUC-MSCs-DPCs can improve the rotational behavior induced by apomorphine in PD model rats, which may be involved in improving levels of DA and GDNF in damaged striatum and protecting neurons.

Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations and characteristics of tracheobronchial foreign bodies in children, and improve the diagnosis and treatment of foreign bodies.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of children with tracheobronchial foreign bodies confirmed by fiberoptic bronchoscopy between January 2010 to December 2019.The children with tracheobronchial foreign body who were treated in the Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Gansu Province.Results:A total of 967 cases were operated by soft electronic bronchoscope, and foreign bodies were removed by means of foreign body forceps or nets.Among them, 19 cases(3 cases with subglottic foreign bodies, one with row of pins, and the rest 15 cases with foreign bodies completely wrapped by granulation)were not removed, two cases were spontaneously coughed, and 946 cases (97.8%)were removed.Bronchial foreign bodies in children were more common in boys, with the ratio of male to female being 2.14∶1.The main age of onset was 1-3 years old(88.8%). The incidence was slightly higher in rural areas than that in urban areas(46.5% in urban areas, 53.5% in rural areas). Foreign bodies were inhaled most in March and least in June.From the perspective of season, winter and spring were more than summer and autumn.The foreign body types inhaled were mainly exogenous plant foreign body, accounting for 93.0%, among which peanut(31.7%)and melon seeds(19.2%)were the most common.The duration of foreign body inhalation was up to 347 cases(35.9%)in 1-3 days.There were 501 cases(51.8%)with endoscopic endobronchial inflammation, and 196 cases of children with varying degrees of granulomatous hyperplasia, accounting for 39.1% and 20.3% of the total.The foreign body in the right bronchus accounted for 50.0% and the left bronchus for 43.7%.There were 793 cases confirmed by imaging, with a positive rate of 81.9%, and 90.9% confirmed by CT.Conclusion:About 88.8% of tracheobronchial foreign bodies occurred in 1 to 3 years of age.The occurrence of foreign bodies had obvious gender, urban-rural and seasonal distribution characteristics, and more cases were male, in rural and winter as well as spring.

BACKGROUND:Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease, and traditional treatment methods are difficult to effectively solve the patient's lack of immune tolerance mechanisms. With the development of stem cel s in regenerative medicine, stem cel therapy has become a hot spot in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.
Currently, studies on cel transplantation for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis are rarely reported.
OBJECTIVE:To study the influence of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel therapy on the changes of Th1/Th2 and Treg in rheumatoid arthritis patients, thereby seeking new therapies for rheumatoid arthritis.
METHODS:We selected 180 cases of rheumatoid arthritis, including 27 patients as control group undergoing non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and anti-rheumatic drugs and 153 patients as cel treatment group undergoing intravenous infusion of 40 mL umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel s at a density of 4×107. Dosing regimen was same in the two groups. The 76 of 153 patients accepted second cel therapy at 3-4 months after the first cel therapy. After fol ow-up of 3 and 6 months, clinical effectiveness evaluation (DAS28, HAQ, ACR20), rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP antibodies, T cel subsets, Th cytokine were detected;for patients with second cel therapy, T cel subsets and Treg were detected at 8 months after treatment.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) At 3 months after treatment, the DAS28, HAQ and ACR20 scores were significantly lower in the cel treatment group than the control group (P<0.01). (2) At 3 and 6 months after cel therapy, the DAS28 and HAQ scores were significantly decreased in the cel treatment group (P<0.01), and these scores were decreased continuously after second cel therapy (P<0.01). (3) Interferon-γlevel in cel s did not change obviously at 3-6 months after treatment, but the interleukin-4 level was gradual y increased at 6 months after treatment (P<0.05). (4) The number of Treg cel s was significantly increased at 3-6 months after treatment (P<0.01), which was closely related to ACR, especial y ACR70 percentage (P<0.05);the ratio of CD4+Treg was increased significantly at 3 months after treatment (P<0.05), and this increasing trend was also maintained at 6 and 8 months after treatment, but there was no significant difference (P>0.05). (5) B cel levels were significantly decreased at 6 months after treatment (P>0.05);the rheumatoid factor value was significantly decreased at 3-6 months after treatment (P<0.05). (6) There was no change in anti-CCP antibody and interleukin-17 levels at 3-6 months after treatment. These findings indicate that after treatment with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel s, the Th1/Th2 tends to balance and Treg level is elevated in rheumatoid arthritis patients, which are directly related to clinical trials and symptomatic relief. Therefore, standard rheumatism medication combined with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel transplantation can improve immune network effects, adjust the immune tolerance and prevent il ness progress in rheumatoid arthritis patients.

To study the umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells impact of inflammatory factors in rheumatoid arthritis patients.Methods:94 cases of patients with RA hospitalized in our department from April 2011 to December 2012 were treated with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) UC,during which the cell therapy scholastic ethics was committed approvally and patients′informed consents were separately signed .94 patients were directly intravenous infusion with 40 ml UC-MSCs ( 4×107 cells/ml),including 57 cases with two UC-MSCs therapy.We used multifunctional flow lattice Luminex 200 analysis to detect contents of 13 kinds of factors in serum such as TNF alpha,IFN-gamma,IL-1β,IL-4,IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,ie,and detected CPR,ESR,assessment DAS28,HAQ,and ARA.Follow-up treatments were performed after 1 week,3 months,6 months ( two cells treatment of 60 cases).Results:①DAS28,HAQ grading standards,were decreased (P<0.01) in 3 months and 6 months before the patients treatment ,2 times than one continue treatment decreased ( P<0.01 );the ESR and CRP in 1 week dropped significantly after treatment ( P<0.01),3 months,6 months before the treatment also decreased (P<0.05).②IL-6,TNF alpha were in falling levels after 1 week,3 months and 6 months treatment ,( P<0.05 ).Conclusion: We proved the inflammatory factors directly related with clinical indicators and symptoms of RA patients .94 cases of patients with other inflammatory factor (IL-17,IL-4,IL-10,etc.) also had some change,we still needed further observation.According to drug rheumatism guide at the same time , collaborative using with UC-MSCs could make RA patients improve local and systemic inflammatory response ,prevent disease progression.
