The theory of "equal stress on bones and muscles" emphasizes that "the tendons bind to the bones, the bones are stretched, the bones are connected, and the bones are fractured. The relationship between bone and soft tissues are important, which is the law of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the treatment of orthopedic diseases. For patients with lumbar disc herniation, the percutaneous intervertebral foraminal technology remodels the disordered internal biological balance of the spine under pathological conditions. Among them, two common clinical minimally invasive approaches under endoscopy are paid attention to soft tissue protection, and active and appropriate functional exercises after surgery, which have become a typical manifestation of the theory of "equal stress on bones and muscles" in modern spinal orthopedic surgery.

The dynamic or flowing tumor cells just as leukemia cells and circulating tumor cells face a microenvironment difference from the solid tumors, and the related targeting nanomedicines are rarely reported. The existence of fluidic shear stress in blood circulation seems not favorable for the binding of ligand modified nanodrugs with their target receptor. Namely, the binding feature is very essential in this case. Herein, we utilized HSPC, PEG-DSPE, cholesterol and two

Objective To investigate the relatio nship between the DNA methylation status of gluco-corticoid receptor (GR) gene promoter and mRNA expression level of GRα gene of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Fifteen new onset SLE patients and fifteen healthy controls were enrolled in this study. The DNA methylation status of GR gene promoter 1 of PBMCs was detected through bisulfite sequencing polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The mRNA expression of GRα, DNA methyltransferases, growth arrest and DNA damage-induced 45α (GADD45α) of PBMCs was detected using the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction method. T-test and χ2-test were used to detect the differences between the two groups, Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to analyze the linear correlation between two variables. Results Compared with healthy controls, the mRNA expression of GRα was signi-ficantly declined in SLE patients (10±5, 17±7, t=2.69, P<0.05), and the mRNA expression of DNMT1 and GADD45α was significantly elevated in SLE patients (t=3.11, P<0.05 and t=2.98, P<0.05). The overall mean methylation status of the 142 CpG islands of the four promoters was significantly elevated in SLE patients [(16±8)%vs (11±6)%, t=2.75, P<0.05]. The global methylation status of PBMCs in SLE patients was obviously lower than healthy controls (t=4.39, P<0.05). Conclusion Hypermethylation of GRα promoter may result in GRαgene low expression in PBMCs of patients with SLE.

BACKGROUND:Because of their immunological properties, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transfusion is developed as a new treatment for refractory graft-versus-host disease. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the safety and curative effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transfusion on treating different organ damages in graft-versus-host disease after al ogeneic hematopoietic stem celltransplantation. METHODS:Eight patients with malignant hematologic disease were included in this study. The patients developed severe steroid-resistant graft-versus-host disease after al ogeneic hematopoietic stem celltransplantation and received transfusion of mesenchymal stme cell(1×106 of immunosuppressive agent. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:For the total y eight patients, six got response (two cases of complete remission, and four cases of partial remission) and two showed no remission. Four of five cutaneous damages were ameliorated and one showed no effect. For three cases of oral graft-versus-host disease, two acquired complete remission and one showed partial remission. Two cases of liver graft-versus-host disease and two cases of astro-intestinal graft-versus-host disease obtained complete remission. No response was displayed to three cases of ocular graft-versus-host disease, one case of bronchiolitis obliterans, and one case of urinary graft-versus-host disease. In the median fol ow-up of 28 months (7-62 months), three patients developed posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders within 3 months after mesenchymal stem cells transfusion. Administration of mesenchymal stem cells is safe for treatment of severe graft-versus-host disease after al ogeneic hematopoietic stem celltransplantation. Mesenchymal stem cells transfusion may be a promising/kg) together with the primary therapy therapy for refractory cutaneous , astro-intestinal, liver and oral graft-versus-host disease but not for pulmonary, ocular and urinary graft-versus-host disease. Whether mesenchymal stem cells transfusion is associated with posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders needs more case data.
