Objective To investigate the magnitude of dose equivalent of exposure dose in different organs of human being using high and low KV X-Ray photography in chest.Methods Dose equivalent of exposure in point of centricity,thyroid,mammary gland and pubic symphysis were detected using thermoluminescence determinator when photographed using different size of exposure field or high and low KV in chest.Results Using center measure point as reference point,dose equivalent in high KV reduced 82% in average to low KV in posterior-anterior position of chest,dose equivalent in high KV reduced 194% in average to low KV in lateral position of chest.All dose equivalent of exposure dose in sensitive organs in non-projection center in high KV photography lower than those in low KV photography.Conclusion When the KV is as high as possible and the exposure field is as small as possible,each dose equivalent of exposure dose of organs out of exposure field is decrease.Dose equivalent of exposure dose in mammary is the highest,those in thyroid is the secondary,and genitical gland area has the lowest dose.

BACKGROUND:Occurrence and development of diabetic complications is closely related to the severity of oxidative stress imbalance in the body. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of embryonic stem cel s on oxidative stress response of rats with diabetic nephropathy. METHODS:Primarily cultured rat embryonic stem cel s were observed for cel morphology and surface antigen detection. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into experimental group (two injections of embryonic stem cel s via the tail vein), model group (injection of the same volume of PBS), and normal control group (with no modeling, intraperitoneal injection of sodium citrate-citrate buffer). In the former two groups, the rats were intraperitoneal y injected sodium citrate-citrate buffer diluted streptozotocin to establish diabetic nephropathy models before treatment. At 5 weeks after the last injection, blood glucose level, renal function indicators (urine protein/urine creatinine, blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine) were tested in each group;contents of malondialdehyde and protein carbonyl were detected in the kidney;the expression level of superoxide dismutase was detected by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The embryonic stem cel s were oval or round, with clear boundary and good refraction, and highly expressed Oct-4 and SSEA-1. Compared with the control group, renal biochemical indicators, malondialdehyde and protein carbonyl contents were significantly increased, while the expression level of superoxide dismutase was decreased dramatical y in the model group and experimental group (P<0.05);compared with the model group, the renal biochemical indicators, malondialdehyde and protein carbonyl contents were dropped significantly in the experimental group, but the expression of superoxide dismutase was significantly rebounded (P<0.05). Taken together, embryonic stem cel s can reverse the occurrence and development of diabetic nephropathy by inhibiting oxidative stress in progress.

BACKGROUND:There are no available therapies for spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury, and stem cel transplantation is a focused topics. OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effect of hypoxia-inducible facotr-1α gene-modified umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cels (UC-MSCs) transplantedvia the infrarenal abdominal aorta on spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. METHODS:Thirty adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups, with 10 rats in each group. The infrarenal abdominal aorta of rats was occluded surgicaly for 1 hour, and then the spinal cord reperfusion was restored. At 2 hours after reperfusion, 1 mL of 10% PBS, UC-MSCs suspension and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α-modified UC-MSCs suspension was injectedvia the infrarenal abdominal aorta, respectively, in the three groups. At 1, 6, 12 days after injection, Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan scores were recorded and western blot assay was used to detect hypoxia-inducible factor-1α protein expression in the spinal cord. The motor-evoked potential was determined at 12 days after injection. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the control group, the Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan scores were significantly higher (P < 0.05), the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α protein in the spinal cord tissue was significantly increased (P < 0.05), the motor-evoked potential latency was shortened (P < 0.05) and the amplitude was increased (P< 0 .05) in the untransfected group and transfection group. Compared with the untransfected group, the Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan scores were significantly higher (P < 0.05), the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α protein in the spinal cord tissue was significantly increased (P < 0.05), the motor-evoked potential latency was shortened (P < 0.05) and the amplitude was increased (P < 0 .05) in the transfection group. Above al, umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel transplantation modified by hypoxia-inducible factor 1α has better effects on spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury.

BACKGROUND:Specific mechanism of stem cel transplantation for treatment of myocardial infarction has been not very clear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of H2O2 METHODS: Twenty-four C57BL/6 mice, 9 weeks old, were randomized into myocardial infarction group, embryonic stem cels group, H-pretreated mouse embryonic stem cels in vitro for treatment of myocardial infarction. 2O2 pretreatment group, with eight mice in each group, which were respectively injected 150 μL PBS, 150 μL embryonic stem cels (1×106), and 150 μL H2O2-pretreated embryonic stem cels (1×106 RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the myocardial infarction group, the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and left ventricular end-systolic inner diameter were significantly decreased in the embryonic stem cels ) at 1 week after modeling. At 3 weeks after transplantation, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, left ventricular end-systolic inner diameter and left ventricular ejection fraction of mice in each group were measured by ultrasound. Myocardial colagen content was detected by Sirius red staining and the average colagen volume fraction was calculated. group and H2O2 pretreatment group, while the left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly increased (P < 0.05). Heart weight/body weight, left ventricular weight/body weight, and average colagen volume fraction were significantly lower in the embryonic stem cels group and H2O2 pretreatment group than the myocardial infarction group (P < 0.05). Therefore,in vitro H2O2 pretreatment enhances reduce the post-myocardial infarction myocardial fibrosis and greatly improve heart function.
