BACKGROUND:Lung cancer stem cel s are tightly related to the treatment and prognosis of lung cancer. We can provide more references for clinical diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer through the study on the tumorigenicity and surface markers of lung cancer stem cel s. OBJECTIVE:To explore the enrichment methods for lung cancer stem cel s and cel ular tumorigenicity. METHODS:Lung cancer stem cel s were induced in serum-free culture medium containing epidermal growth factor, insulin-like growth factor 1, and basic fibroblast growth factor. Then, the expressions of related surface markers were detected using immunofluorescence method. After that, mice were implanted subcutaneous with lung cancer stem cel spheres to understand the tumorigenicity of lung cancer stem cel s. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Lung cancer stem cel s under serum-free induction and culture were changed to sphere-forming cel s, and the immunofluorescence detection showed that over 80%of sphere-forming cel s were positive for CCSP, SP-C and OCT4. After transplantation of sphere-forming cel s, the mice showed a high tumorigenicity. These findings indicate that sphere-forming cel s are formed after serum-free suspension culture of lung cancer stem cel s, which have a higher tumorigenicity.

Objective:To investigate the eating disorder and mood among students of a female university in Beijing.Methods:352 female students from a same-sex college in Beijing,between the age of 17-25 years were in- vestigated by Eating Disorder Inventory(EDI)and Profile of Mood States-Short Form(POMS-SF).Their weight and height were also collected for calculating for their body mass index(BMI).Results:Female university students showed serious tendency of eating disorder.The negative attitudes to body and body satisfaction were serious among normal BMI female university students.The behaviors and attitudes to eating disorders among the students of fresh-woman and senior were significantly higher than other grades(x~2=17.94,P

BACKGROUND:There is little attention focused on the effect of isokinetic testing about the variation of angular velocity on pain and muscle strength in the evaluation of curative effect of McConnel taping. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the changes of quadriceps muscle strength and perceived pain levels in patients with patelofemoral pain syndrome before and after corrective McConnel taping in isokinetic testing. METHODS:A total of 34 patients with patelofemoral pain syndrome were evaluated in isokinetic testing for concentric contraction muscular strength, including the maximum torque, the total work, and the average work in 60 (°)/s and 180 (°)/s angular velocity, before and after the interventions of McConnel taping. The visual analogue scale scores were recorded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The visual analogue scale scores were slightly decreased in angular velocity of 60 (°)/s after obturation when compared to before obturation (P > 0.05), while the scores were significantly decreased in angular velocity of 180 (°)/s (P < 0.05). The maximum torque, the total work, and the average work were slightly increased after obturation, but showed no significant difference in angular velocity of 60 (°)/s (P > 0.05), while significantly increased in 180 (°)/s angular velocity (P < 0.05). McConnel taping significantly improves the curative effect in patients with patelofemoral pain syndrome under low load joint movement.
