BACKGROUND:There are no unified methods to isolate,culture and amplify bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs) . Endothelial progenitor cells(EPCs) can be harvested by inducing peripheral blood or bone marrow mononuclear cells. However,the method of collecting bone marrow mononuclear cells is various,and the isolation efficiency is different. OBJECTIVE:To isolate and identify BMSCs and EPCs in vitro. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The cytological in vitro study was performed at the Central Laboratory,First Affiliated Hospital,Anhui Medical University from October 2008 to February 2009. MATERIALS:Two clean healthy male Sprague Dawley rats were supplied by the Anhui Animal Center. METHODS:Rat bone marrow was extracted to harvest mononuclear cells by density gradient centrifugation. BMSCs were isolated by the differential adhesion. Following 48 hours of primary culture of BMSCs,non-adhered cells were collected and induced by EGM-2 complete medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum,vascular endothelial growth factor,fibroblast growth factor,insulin-like growth factor-1 and recombinant human epidermal growth factor. There were three groups:early adherence + common culture EPCs,twice adherence + induction culture EPCs,and rat mature aorta EPCs. Nitric oxide content was directly measured in the medium using nitrate reductase method. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The following parameters were measured:in vitro culture of BMSCs and EPCs,and nitric oxide content in the medium. RESULTS:Primary culture of BMSCs was in a spindle-shape,within 24 hours the majority of cells were adherent,9-10 days up to 90% cells were confluent. Purified BMSCs were amplified and uniform,long spindle,with the passage cycle for 8 days. Flow cytometry detection showed that cells were CD34-,CD45-negative and CD105-positive. Second adherent of EPCs induced by 3 days culture showed colony formation following six days,appeared cord-like structure and microvessel-like growth at 8-10 days. At 2 weeks,the majority of cells were polygonal,colony-forming unit was interconnected,showing a typical "cobblestone"-like. At 7-10 days,cells were double stained DiI-acLDL and FITC-UEA-1. Flow cytometry showed Flk-1-positive and CD133-positive. Nitric oxide content was significantly higher in the culture medium compared with the ordinary cultured cells(P

Objective:To research the application value of coronary CT angiography(CTA) detection for epicardial adipose tissue(EAT) and pericardial adipose tissue(PAT) in the diagnosis of coronary stent restenosis.Method:Selected 68 cases coronary atherosclerotic stenosis patients who were treated by coronary stent from June 2012 to June 2013 in hospital. All patients were detected after the operation of CTA within 3 years and they were divided into two groups (coronary stent restenosis positive group included 29 cases, negative group included 39 cases). To analyze the relationship between EAT and PAT through the statistical method and analyze the application value of EAT and PAT in the diagnosis of coronary stent restenosis based on calcification score image measurement of EAT and PAT volume.Results: Correlation analysis results showed there was correlation between EAT volume and PAT volume (r=0.859,P<0.05); through compared CAG and the diagnostic results of coronary artery stent restenosis by EAT and PAT, the sensitivity was 82.87%, specificity was 84.62%, CCTA positive predictive value was 80.00%, negative predictive value was 86.84% and diagnostic accuracy was 83.82% of the stent patency which was evaluated by CAG. The consistency evaluation marker Kappa was 0.554. The analysis of patients with coronary stent restenosis showed that there was significant correlation between Gensini score of coronary stent restenosis and EAT and PAT(P<0.05).Conclusion:There was significant correlation between EAT volume and PAT volume, and they can be used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of coronary stent operation restenosis and the results were higher. Besides, its clinical diagnostic value was similar with CAG.

Along with the frequent international communication of TCM, translation of related classics becomes increasingly important. The translation of TCM classics' titles, which reveal the content of the classics, is equally essential. Dictated by the translating principles of standardization, correspondence, readability and nationalism, the paper analyzed the translation of TCM classics' titles containing modesty words, and put forward the following translation strategies translation: The method of foreignization is preferred for the translation of titles involving heterogeneous culture in order to retain the unique TCM concept while the method of domestication is advised for the translation of titles involving elements in conflict with the target culture; In the translation of TCM classics' titles containing modesty word(s), weakening or omitting the sense of self-depreciation is proposed. The paper aimed to contribute to the standardization of TCM nomenclature translation in order to promote international dissemination of TCM classics.

Objective To investigate the effect of linezolid on procalcitonin ( PCT) in the treatment of methicillin resistant staphylococcus ( MRS) infection.Methods 85 cases with MRS infection in our hospital were grouped, control group received vancomycin treatment, study group received linezolid, 2 weeks for 1 courses.Clinical effect were compared to explore the linezolid effect of PCT levels in patients with MRS infection.Results After treatment, defervescence time, bacterial clearance time, bacterial clearance rate and 48 hour mortality rate between two groups of patients had no significant difference.Compared with the control group, ICU treatment time in the study group was significantly lower ( P<0.05 ) .There was no significant difference in total effective rate between two groups.After treatment, the PCT and CRP in study group were lower than control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Linezolid has significant function to reduce the serum PCT level of patients with methicillin-resistant staphylococcus infection procalcitonin, which has better clinical curative effect.

Uncoupling protein, a protein that participates in proton transport in the inner mitochondrial membrane, has some physiologic functions such as regulating thermogenesis, maintaining body temperature, regulating energy balance and adenosine triphosphate production, controlling reactive oxygen species production, and restraining apoptosis. It takes part in the pathophysiological processes in a number of diseases. The article reviews the uncoupling protein gene, distribution and regulation, the roles in peripheral tissues and central nervous system, and its possible relationship with cerebral infarction.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of intravenous administration of amiodarone on postoperative heart failure and ventricular arrhythmia.METHODS:A total of 42 postoperative heart failure patients with ventricular tachycardia and multi-source ventricular premature beat were treated with lidocaine,but clinical efficacy was not obtained.Those patients received intravenous administration of diluted amiodarome 150 mg.After 30 minutes the dose of amiodarone was kept at 0.5～1.0 mg?min-1,and the total dosage ranged from 1 000 mg to 1 200 mg within 24 h.Clinical symptoms were recorded in every hour,such as cardiac rhythm,heart rate,blood pressure,heart failure.RESULTS:After 24 h of treatment,17 cases of ventricular arrhythmia had apparent effect(40%),20 cases of partial effect(47%),5 cases of no effect(12%),there were statistical significance in difference before and after treatment(P

Clinical data and treatment of a patient with late-onset glutaric acidemia type Ⅱ who was admitted to the Department of Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of Shenzhen Children′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.The patient is a female with the clinical manifestations of aggravated progressive proximal muscle weakness, accompanied by vomiting, abdominal pain and liver enlargement.A marked increase of transaminase, bilirubin and creatine kinase was detected, and hyperammonemia, hypoglycemia and metabolic acidosis were also observed in the patient.Blood amino acids and acylcarnitines spectra showed increased levels of various acylcarnitines.The muscle biopsy study suggested lipid storage myopathy (LSM), and the genetic test identified a homozygous mutation in the electron transfer flavoprotein dehydrogenase (ETFDH) gene.After treatment with Vitamin B 2, carnitine, coenzyme Q10 and plasma exchange, the motivate ability and biochemical parameters of the patient returned to normal.For patients with aggravated progressive proximal muscle weakness, hepatic dysfunction and increased serum creatine kinase levels, late-onset glutaric acidemia type Ⅱ should be considered.The key to early diagnosis and treatment of the disease is to improve the knowledge of it.
