Recently,the progress in employing transplanting stem cells to cure injured retina is very fast and has been continuously yielding exciting results.Various sources are used in the studies,including retina-derived cells such as M?ller cells and ciliary body cells,and non-retina-derived cells such as embryonic stem cells and brain-derived stem cells.This review briefly discusses the recent progress of these studies.

Objective To introduce a method using hydroxyapatite methylmethacylate cement implanted in the femoral head for the treatment of patients suffering from avascular necrosis of the femoral head due to different causes and to review the medium term follow up results. Methods From January 1990 to December 1995, eight hips in seven patients(male 4, female 3) with femoral head necrosis at Ficat stage Ⅲ were treated with the hydroxyapatite methylmethacylate cement implantation in the involved femoral head. Four osteonecrosis were secondary to femoral neck fracture, two were due to corticosteroid intake and one had alcohol abuse history. All patients complained pain and limited joint activity. The operation consisted of the removal of necrotic bone under weight loading cartilage with curet and the implantation of the hydroxyapatite methylmethacylate cement. The function of hip joint were well evaluated and X ray films were taken pre and postoperatively. The average postoperative follow up was 7.9 years, ranging from 5.1 to 11 years. Results Merle d Aubign? method was used to assess and compare the pre and post operative function of hip joint. The average score for unilateral cases increased from 8.66 to 15.5 at final examination. On radiography, the improvement of the contours of the femoral head was seen in all patients and most of them could preserve their initial postoperative contours during the follow up. No sign of expansion of the bone necrosis appeared in most of the patients, although certain patients presented various joint degeneration such as narrowing of joint space,sclerosis and osteophyte. Subjective evaluation was satisfactory except two suffering from painless limited activity of hip joint. Conclusion This method is relatively simple with less invasion and rapid postoperative recovery. It may be a choice of surgery for the treatment of certain femoral head necrosis at Ficat stage Ⅲ, especially for young patients.
3.Advances in research on inhibitors based on targets: IDO1 and TDO
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2021;56(5):1265-1278
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) catalyze the initial and rate limiting step in the catabolism of tryptophan, which is related to tumor immune tolerance and poor prognosis in patients. In this regard, two enzymes have become important therapeutic targets for tumor immunotherapy. So far, nine IDO1 inhibitors and three IDO1/TDO dual inhibitors have entered clinical trials. This review summarizes the research progress of IDO1 inhibitors, TDO inhibitors and IDO1/TDO dual inhibitors from the perspective of medicinal chemistry.

Objective To confirm subject headings which are prepared to be added, deleted and modified in the class of traditional Chinese medicine and related disciplines (TG class) for the new edition of Chinese Traditional Medicine and Materia Medica Subject Headings (CTMMeSH). Methods Compiling principle, word frequency statistics and database retrieval results were considered. Other references, such as MeSH, were also used to help choose subject headings of TG class. Results In TG class, 35 subject headings were planned to be added, such as “medicine, traditional Korean”and“TCM constitution”;35 subject headings were planned to be deleted, such as“medicine, eastern tradition”and“meridians”;19 subject headings were planned to be modified, such as “four-constitution medicine” and “Minority Medicine”. The subject headings of “Minority Medicine”were unified to harmonize the problems of“TCM pharmacy”with other classes of subject terms. Conclusion Subject headings of TG class are chosen based on word frequency statistics. The word form are unified refer to regulation, teaching materials and documents, and should coordinate with subject headings of other classes.

Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of dynamic hip screw (DHS) internal fixation and proximal femoral nail (PFN) internal fixation for intertrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods One hundred and sixty-five patients with intertrochanteric femoral fractures were randomly divided into 2 groups,85 patients were in DHS group and 80 patients were in PFN group.The clinical effectiveness,index in operative procedure and complications were compared between two groups.Results The fine rate of DHS group and PFN group was 75.3%(64/85 ) and 83.8%( 67/80 ) (P > 0.05 ).The indexes of function recover time,fracture healing time,amount of bleeding in operation,operation time in PFN group were significant lower than those in DHS group [(54.3 ± 11.7 ) d vs.(92.6 ± 10.5 ) d,(63.8 ± 12.2) d vs.(71.3 ± 10.6) d,(453.3 ± 50.7) ml vs.(627.5 ± 46.8) ml,(77.9 ± 25.2) min vs.( 115.7 ± 32.8) min](P<0.05 ).The rate of short-term complications was 16.2% (13/80) in PFN group,and 12.9 % ( 11/85 ) in DHS group(P > 0.05 ).The rate of long-term complications was 1.2%( 1/80 ) in PEN group and 4.7%(4/85 ) in plts group (P < 0.05).Conclusions As the treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fractures,PFN internal fixation has less bleeding and better efficacy,and can improve function recovery.PFN internal fixation is a better method for unstable femoral fracture.

Objective To analyze the surgical treatment of hemangioma of limbs complicated by Kasabach-Mcrritt phenomenon in children.Methods A retrospective study was carried out on 31 children with hemangioma of limbs complicated by Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon.Lower limbs were affected in 19 patients,and upper limbs in 12 patients.Twenty-six patients showed decreased platelet count ((2.6-60) × 109/L) and fibrinogen level (< 1 g/L),and 21 prolonged partial prothrombin time (> 50 seconds).All the patients who had responded poorly to medications including glucocorticoids received surgical treatment.Results Of these patients,30 were cured,and one died of massive blood loss.After surgical treatment,the platelet count returned to normal in 1-3 days in 25 patients,3-7 days in 4 patients,and more than 10 days in one patient.Conclusions For pediatric hemangiomas of limbs complicated by Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon,surgical treatment should be given as early as possible so as to reduce mortality in patients.

Objective To construct the recombinant adenovirus of mouse Osf2/Cbfal gene and to observe its ability to infect NIH3T3 fibroblasts. Methods The Osf2/Cbfal gene fragment was cloned into the shuttle plasmid pAdTrack-CMV to form the transfer vector by the method of homogenous recombination in bacteria. Then the recombinant adenovirus was transfected into NIH3T3 cells using Lipofectine DOTAP, The target gene was detected by poly-merase chain reaction (PCR). The titer and its infection rate were determined using the green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression in the shuttle plasmid. Results Restriction endonuclease and PCR analyses confirmed that the Osf2/Cbfal gene was successfully inserted into the adenovirus vector. The titer of the recombinant adenovirus was 1.6?1012 pfu/ml. The adenovirus had a strong effect on NIH3T3 cells. Conclusion The recombinant adenovirus containing Osf2/Cbfal gene was successfully constructed by the method of homogenous recombination in bacteria.

Objective To establish KIF4A 3'UTR esiRNA library and analyze the advantage of method in studying the function of KIF4A in SGC-7901 cells.Methods The GST-fusion protein of Escherichia coli endoribonuclease Ⅲ (GST-RNase Ⅲ) was used to digest the double strand RNA (dsRNA),which was transcribed in vitro from a 502bp template of KIF4A genome (T7-KIF4A 3'UTR).The KIF4A esiRNA library generated from the above method and chemically synthesized KIF4A siRNA were then used to transfect SGC-7901 cells at 10 nmol/L and 20 nmol/L.Real-time quantitative PCR and Western Blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein level of KIF4A,respectively.Results The KIF4A esiRNA library was effectively established from dsRNA digestion using GST-RNase Ⅲ.KIF4A expression was significantly reduced in SGC-7901 cells transfected with KIF4A esiRNA or siRNA.In addition,the inhibitory effect of KIF4A esiRNA was more effective than that of chemically synthesized siRNA.Conclusion KIF4A esiRNA library which was obtained using biological method can more effectively inhibited the expression of KIF4A more effectively in SGC-7901 cells than chemically synthesized siRNA.Therefore,esiRNA library can be used as a new and more effective method in studying the function of KIF4A in SGC-7901 cells.
