BACKGROUND:Research has found that human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells have certain therapeutic effects on thin endometrium.However,there are currently no reports on the study of human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells on thin endometrium,and there is a lack of relevant research comparing the three.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects and mechanisms of human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma,monocytes,and mesenchymal stem cells in repairing thin endometrium in rats.METHODS:Sixty female SPF grade SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group,and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group,with 12 rats in each group.The sham operation group received 0.5 mL physiological saline injection into the uterine horn,followed by 0.5 mL of PBS infusion after 5 minutes;The model group,human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group,and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group were injected with 0.5 mL of 95％ethanol by volume.After 5 minutes,the remaining ethanol was aspirated and washed twice with physiological saline.Then,0.5 mL of PBS,human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells(1×107 cells/mL),and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells(1×107 cells/mL)were perfused separately.During the third normal estrus cycle after reperfusion,organs,tissues and serum were collected for testing of relevant indicators.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The macroscopic view of uterine tissue,hematoxylin eosin staining and Masson staining results:the sham operation group had intact structure,moderate endometrial thickness,and clear vascular structure.Compared with the sham operation group,the model group showed uterine atrophy,incomplete structure,significantly reduced endometrial thickness and glandular quantity,disordered vascular structure,and increased fibrosis.Compared with the model group,after treatment with human umbilical cord blood derivatives,the size,structure,and endometrial thickness of the uterus were restored(all P＜0.01),and fibrosis was reduced,with the most significant recovery observed in the human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group.The increase in glandular quantity was most significant in the human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group(P＜0.000 1).(2)The immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence results of uterine tissue showed that compared with the sham operation group,the expression levels of cell proliferation related indicators such as keratin 9 and vimentin,endometrial receptivity related indicators such as leukemia inhibitory factor and integrin αyβ3,platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule,basic fibroblast growth factor,and vascular endothelial growth factor were all reduced in the model group(all P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the above indicators were significantly increased after treatment with human umbilical cord blood derivatives.Comparison of human umbilical cord blood derivatives among groups showed that keratin 9 and vascular endothelial growth factor protein:human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group＞human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group;Wave shaped protein and leukemia inhibitory factor protein:human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group＞human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group;Integrin αyβ3 protein:human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group＞human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group;Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule protein:human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group＞human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group;Basic fibroblast growth factor protein:human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cell group＞human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma group＞human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cell group.(3)Western blot analysis showed that compared with the sham operation group,the protein levels of interleukin-6,interleukin-1β,and tumor necrosis factor alpha in the model group were significantly increased(all P＜0.001),and their expression levels decreased after treatment(all P＜0.05).(4)ELISA assay showed that compared with the sham operation group,the model group had lower levels of anti Mullerian hormone,estradiol,and progesterone,and increased levels of follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone(except for luteinizing hormone,all P＜0.05).After treatment,there was a certain degree of recovery in the levels of sex hormones and anti Mullerian hormones.(5)Fertility experiments showed that compared with the sham operation group,the model group had an increase in conception time and a significant decrease in litter size(all P＜0.05).After treatment with human umbilical cord blood derivatives,the litter size of all three groups increased(P＜0.05),and no significant differences were found between the groups.This study preliminarily reveals that human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells have a certain therapeutic effect on thin endometrium,and human umbilical cord blood platelet rich plasma,human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells,and human umbilical cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells have different advantages and differences in improving endometrial regeneration function,endometrial receptivity,angiogenesis,inflammation regulation,and improving pregnancy outcomes in thin endometrium.

Objective To discuss the value in quality improvement and continuous improvement through the way for determina-tion of target uncertainty in chemical quantitative detection project and regular evaluation of measurement uncertainty in different phase.Methods Based on the biological variability of quality specification and CNAS-TRL-001:CNAS technical report,to compare the five kinds of determination of target uncertainty.Method 1:the fundamental way(calculate the different levels of target impre-cision and bias);Method 2:biological variation of different grades of total allowable error;Method 3:the relative expanded uncer-tainty evaluation value based on target imprecision and bias;Method 4:the target relative expanded uncertainty based on biological variation of different grades;Method 5:the target relative expanded uncertainty based on the quality index of analysis.We used un-certainty evaluate index(UEI)to review the changes of uncertainty in different phase.Results The 14 conventional chemistry tests in 2013 with metrological traceability and participate in the Ministry of health EQA were as the target.There was no significant difference among the 2,3,4 method,the ratio of which reached the ideal value of uncertaninty target were not significantly different. In method 5,9 projects achieved the target of uncertainty requirements,accounted for 64.3%.TP,ALT,BUN,UA,CK,these5 pro-jects′UEI were less than 0,accounted for 35.7%;other 9 projects′UEI were more than 2.0%.Conclusion Method 5:the target relative expanded uncertainty based on the quality index of analysis which is based on WS/T403-2012 can give consideration to the quality standard of repeatability precision and bias in the laboratory at the same time,and is easy to be accepted for laboratory;method 4:the target relative expanded uncertainty based on biological variation of different grades is in the same way with the eval-uation of test results uncertainty,is better than method 2 and 3;method 1 is the fundamental way,can give the specific reasons when the test results cannot get the target uncertainty.Use UEI to assess the changes of uncertainty in different phase is more sensitive to changes of the test results′accuracy and its usefulness needs to be confirmed in practice.

In this study, apoptosis was induced by new type gosling viral enteritis virus (NGVEV) in experimentally infected goslings is reported in detail for the first time. After 3-day-old goslings were orally inoculated with a NGVEV-CN strain suspension, the time course of NGVEV effects on apoptotic morphological changes of the internal tissues was evaluated. These changes were observed by histological analysis with light microscopy and ultrastructural analysis with transmission electron microscopy. DNA fragmentation was assessed with a terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL) assay and DNA ladder analysis. A series of characteristic apoptotic morphological changes including chromatin condensation and margination, cytoplasmic shrinkage, plasma membrane blebbing, and formation of apoptotic bodies were noted. Apoptosis was readily observed in the lymphoid and gastrointestinal organs, and sporadically occurred in other organs after 3 days post-infection (PI). The presence and quantity of TUNEL-positive cells increased with infection time until 9 days PI. DNA extracted from the NGVEV-infected gosling cells displayed characteristic 180~200 bp ladders. Apoptotic cells were ubiquitously distributed, especially among lymphocytes, macrophages, monocytes, and epithelial and intestinal cells. Necrosis was subsequently detected during the late NGVEV-infection phase, which was characterized by cell swelling, plasma membrane collapse, and rapidly lysis. Our results suggested that apoptosis may play an important role in the pathogenesis of NGVE disease.

BACKGROUND:It is reported that tailless-like protein (TLX) plays critical roles in the regulation of early developmental processes in vertebrates, and it plays a key role in stem cells proliferation and differentiation into neurons. OBJECTIVE: To construct recombinant plasmid pEGFPN1-TLX and study the transfection into dermal multipotential stem cells. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Cytogene experiment was performed at the Department of Pathogen Biology, School of Basic Medical Science, the Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from March to December 2007. MATERIALS: An adult SD was obtained from the Experimental Animal Center of the Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA; dermal moltipotential stem cells (DMSCs) were cultured by the Institute of Combined Injury of the Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA; pEGFPN1 and DH5α was gifted by professor Xu.METHODS: Total RNA was extracted from rat brain tissue to amplify TLX-coded cDNA sequence using RT-PCR. T/A was cloned on pMD18-T vector and determined using BamHI and Hindlll. The products were positive recombinant plasmid pMD18-T-TLX segments, which were sub-cloned in pEGFPN1 to construct recombinant plasmid pEGFPN1-TLX. Finally, pEGFPN1-TLX was transfected into DMSCs.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The fluorescence protein expression was observed under fluorescence microscope at 24 hours after transfection; TLX mRNA expression was detected using RT-PCR; neuronal differentiation was observed using immunohistochemical staining.RESULTS: TLX full length cDNA was successfully cloned into pEGFPN1, and pEGFPN1-TLX was successfully constructed by means of sequence analysis and enzyme cutting identification. As compared with non-transfected DMSCs, pEGFPN1-TLX transfected DMSCs were observed after 10 days, formed resistant clones after 15 days, and shown a green fluorescent protein expression. However, non-transfected DMSCs died at day 10. RT-PCR indicated that pEGFPN1-TLX transfected DMSCs could express TLX mRNA. At day 3 after induction, NF200 positive cells were increased, but glial fibrillary acidic protein positive cells were decreased after induction of pEGFPN1-TLX transfected DMSCs.CONCLUSION: TLX was successfully constructed and transfected into DMSCs. After transfection, neuronal differentiation of DMSCs was enhanced, and the differentiation to gliocytes was inhibited.
