Objective To study the characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)derived from chronic myelogenous leukemia(CML)patients' bone marrow and examine their hematopoiesis support in vitro.Methods MSCs from CML were obtained and cultured.Immunophenotype and in vitro differentiation capacities were investigated.Moreover,the Ph chromosome and bcr/abl gene of CML derived MSCs were detected.The expression of cytokines was detected by RT-PCR,and hema- topoiesis support of MSCs in vitro was detected by long-term bone marrow culture and the methylcel- lulose progenitor assay.Results CML derived MSCs showed a typical fibroblast like morphology. They were positive for CD29,CD44 and CD105,while negative for CD14,CD31,CD45,CD34 and HLA-DR.Under suitable conditions,CML derived MSCs could differentiate into osteoblasts and adi- pocytes.Further,CML derived MSCs showed a normal choromosome,and did not express bcr/abl gene.At last,they expressed hematopoiesis cytokines and possessed ability of hematopoiesis support in vitro.Conclusion There are MSCs with multidirectional differentiation potential in CML bone mar- row and they possess the ability of hematopoiesis support.

Objective To study effects of fluid resuscitation on thoracoabdominal injury combined with hemorrhagic traumatic shock.Method A total of 98 patients,who were treated in Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Dalian University from November 2004 to December 2006,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were diagnozed according to Surgery(fifth edition).Patients were divided into delayed fluid resuscitation group(n= 51)and immediate fluid resuscitation group(n=47).Patients in delayed fluid resuscitation group were given with balanced salt solution for the body to maintain basic requirements.Patients in immediate fluid resuscitation group were rapidly administered with a lot of isotonic crystaUoid and(or)colloid solution after admission. Hemoglobin,platelet count,hematocrit,blood lactic acid,basedeficit,preoperative resuscitation time and mortality were compared between the two groups.Paired t test and variance analysis or x~2 test were used.Results The transfusion fluid volume of delayed group and immediate group was(1586?346)ml,(3520?575)ml, respectively,with P value

Objective To explore literature distribution and research of circulating tumor DNA in recent years using bibliometric method.Methods The literatures about circulating tumor DNA were searched from database of Web of Sciences.The searching results were analyzed using bibliometric method concerning the article numbers,countries/ districts,institutes,journal distribution,etc.Summary of the times cited and citing articles were also analyzed.Results A total of 708 circulating tumor DNA related literatures were obtained.Although the total number of documents was low,the annual number and citations increased significantly,and growing rate was fast.United States issued the largest number of publications.The published papers in J Clin Oncol was most.The average number of citations for all the publications was 11.53 times.The literatures about circulating tumor DNA for tumor diagnosis and prognosis had the more citations.Conclusion Now,the circulating tumor DNA research is novel and the hot spot.Relevant papers were published in Journals of high level,and the number of citations was higher.The circulating tumor DNA will play an important role in tumor diagnosis and prognosis.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are promising candidates to develop new cell-based therapeutic strategies and bone marrow represents the main source of MSCs for experimental and clinical application currently. How to obtain enough MSCs is the biggest challenge faced by the experimental and clinical application. The difference of morphology, growth pattern, immunophenotype and multilineage differentiation of MSCs derived from human umbilical cord vein and their multiple differentiation capacity were investigated. The results showed that MSCs derived from human umbilical cord vein and normal adult bone marrow were similar in biological characteristics. They not only grew in fibroblast-like cells mode but had great expansion potency and multilineage differentiation ability in vitro. The MSCs derived from human umbilical cord vein may be an excellent alternative source for experimental and clinical application.

Objective To investigate the effect of total flavonoids of Herba Epimodii (HEF) on the expression of core binding factor?1 (Cbfal) in the bone of ovariectomized rats.Methods Fifty-four female SD rats were allocated into 6 groups (9 in each): sham operation group,ovariectomized (OVX) group,OVX followed by three kinds of HEF doses(40,80 and 160 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))and nilestriol (0.1 mg?kg~(-1)?week~(-1))for 12 weeks respectively.Bone mineral density (BMD) of whole body was determined by DEXA.The levels of osteocalcin (BGP) and estradiol (E_2) in serum were measured by radioimmunologic method.All rats were then sacrificed,and total RNA were directly isolated from the skull.Relative quantification of Cbfal mRNA expression was detected by real time quantitative PCR.Results Serum E_2 and BMD of whole body in the OVX group were lower than those in sham group significantly after 12 weeks (both P0.05).Relative quantification of Cbfal mRNA expression in the OVX group was significantly lower than that in sham group after 12 weeks (P

Objective To investigate the fluctuation of the iodine deficiency disorders(IDD) through continuous monitoring on it. Methods During 2005-2008, 10 monitoring countis (city,district) of IDD were selected in Jiangxi Province. Five townships were selected in each monitoring county, one school was selected in each townships, and 40 students in 8-10 years old from each school were selected to inspect their thyroid glands and determined the idodine content of salts from their home. Among the 40 students, 20 of which were selected to determine the intelligence quotient(IQ) and 6 of which were selected to determine urine iodine. Thirty pregnant women were also selected to determine the urine iodine in each monitoring county. Twenty students of 5th grade in each school and 5 housewives living nearby the school were selected to carry out the questionnaire survey of health education about IDD. Results Monitoring results showed the average goiter rote of 8-10 years old students was between 2.00% and 4.60% during 2005-2008. The rate of IQ of the students higher than 90 was all above 76% each year. The median of urine iodine of students and pregnant women was higher than 100 μg/L, and the proportion of people whose urine iodine content was lower than 50 μg/L was below 4% each year. The rate of inhabitant taking qualified idodine salt wasn't lower than 95%. The pass rate of the questionnaire survey of health education about IDD was between 11.67% and 43.50% in students and 92.50%-99.60% in housewives. Conclusions The situation of iodine deficiency in Jiangxi Province has been greatly improved, reaching the standard of eliminating IDD.
