ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of the asphyxia as a Second Hit on renal function during early stage after birth in small for gestational age (SGA) infants.MethodsThe infants who were hospitalized within 24 hours after birth in Peking University Third Hospital between January 2013 and March 2015 were retrospectively enrolled, and divided into different groups depending on gestational age and asphyxia history. There were 40 preterm non-asphyxia SGA infants and 80 controls who were preterm non-asphyxia appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants; 11 preterm asphyxia SGA infants and an equal number of preterm asphyxia AGA infants as controls; 33 term non-asphyxia SGA infants and 33 term non-asphyxia AGA infants as controls; and four term asphyxia SGA infants and 13 term asphyxia AGA infants as controls. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (SCr), and estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were tested within 48 h after admission and the incidence of abnormal indexes was compared between groups byt-test and Fisher exact test.Results(1) Compared with preterm non-asphyxia AGA group, BUN level significantly decreased in preterm non-asphyxia SGA group [(3.99±1.69) vs (5.11±2.08) mmol/L,t=2.948, P=0.004]. Compared with term non-asphyxia AGA group, term non-asphyxia SGA group had higher SCr level [(72.03±10.29) vs (62.58±12.27)μmol/L,t=3.390,P=0.001] and lower eGFR level [(25.19±4.07) vs (33.99±8.75) ml/(min·1.73 m2),t=5.238,P=0.000]. (2) Compared with preterm non-asphyxia AGA infants, preterm asphyxia AGA infants had higher BUN [(6.96±3.09) vs (5.11±2.08) mmol/L,t=2.602,P=0.011] and SCr [(76.45±10.11) vs (66.70±13.18)μmol/L,t=2.357,P=0.021] and lower eGFR level [(15.86±2.31) vs (19.54±5.08) ml/(min·1.73 m2),t=2.361,P=0.020]. Compared with preterm non-asphyxia SGA group, there was a significant increase in BUN level [(6.70±3.37) vs (3.99±1.69) mmol/L,t=2.581,P=0.025] and decrease in eGFR level [(14.80±4.67) vs (18.66±5.03) ml/(min·1.73 m2),t=2.285,P=0.027] in preterm asphyxia SGA group. Changes in term infants were similar to preterm infants. (3) Compared with asphyxia AGA group, asphyxia SGA group showed a higher frequency of abnormal eGFR in term infants (4/4 vs 4/13, Fisher exact test,P=0.029). ConclusionsAsphyxia as a probable Second Hit can influence the renal function during early stage in both preterm and term infants, especially in SGA infants.

BACKGROUND: Mesenchymal stem cells are few in human bone marrow, and their number will decrease with aging or body weakening, so a large amount of amplification is necessary. However, the biological characteristics of human mesenchymal stem cells of each passage remain poorly understood.OBJECTIVE: To analyze and compare the biological characteristics of each passage of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) so as to provide a basis for clinical demands of tissue engineering.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING: Cytological observation in vitro. The experiment was performed at the Department of Orthopedics and Central Laboratory, Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from March to October 2008.MATERIALS: From bone marrow of patients with non-hematopoietic disease, MSCs were provided by Department of Orthopedics, Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.METHODS: Bone marrow was collected form posterior superior iliac spine of patient, MSCs were isolated and cultured by Percoll method. When the cells were confluent at 90%, they were trypsinized and observed by inverted miscroscopy. The second passage of cells were collected for index detection.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cell morphological characteristics and immunophenotype; cell activity was detected by MTT; cell division and apoptosis in the proportion of necrosis were analyzed by flow cytometry analysis.RESULTS: The passaged MSCs exhibited uniform appearance in fusiform shape, and their growth was slowed down after 9 passages, exhibiting cytoplasm vacuolization and body enlarging. The second passage of MSCs was positive for CD44, CD106,and CD105, but negative for CD34 and CD45. MTT values peaked at passage 9, and gradually decreased since passage 10. At passage 11, the number of MSCs at division stage was increased, but from the sixth passage, the number of apoptotic cells increased significantly, reaching more than 60% at passage 8.CONCLUSION: According to biological characteristics analysis of MSCs at each passage, the third to the sixth passage cells are recommend for clinical therapy.

Objective:To study the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF), and thrombospondin (TSP) in oral submucous fibrosis(OSF), and to determine the relationship between VEGF and TSP, so as to investigate their roles in the pathogenesis of OSF. Methods:30 patients with OSF, including early (10 cases), middle (10 cases), late stage (10 cases) were studied. 5 healthy volunteers were chosen as control group. Buccal mucosa biopsies were taken in all samples. Expressions of VEGF and TSP were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results:The expression of VEGF increased in early stage compared with normal oral mucous, and decreased in middle and late stage. The expression of VEGF in early stage had statistical difference compared with control group, middle stage and late stage respectively(P<0.05).The expression of TSP upregulated in early and middle, and downregulated in late stage. There were no statistical significant differences among groups(P>0.05). The expressions of VEGF and TSP had negative correlation(r=-0.620,P<0.05). Conclusions: The abnormal expressions of VEGF and TSP may be a pathogenesis factor of OSF.
