RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Stem cel s can be induced to differentiate into dopaminergic neurons in vivo and in vitro, which provides a theoretical basis for stem cel transplantation in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease OBJECTIVE:To explore the feasibility and mechanism of intracerebral transplantation of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel s for treatment of Parkinson’s disease rats. METHODS:Intracerebral injection of 6-hydroxydopamine was used to make Parkinson’s disease models in SD rats. Twenty-two model rats were randomized into cel transplantation group (n=12) and control group (n=10) and respectively injected intracerebral y with umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel suspension and PBS. At 1-8 weeks after cel transplantation, intra-abdominal injection of apomorphine was performed every week to observe the rotation behaviors of rats;at the 2nd and 8th weeks, rat’s striatum and substantia nigra were taken for immunohistochemistry staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The rotation behaviors were gradual y decreased with time in the cel transplantation, but had no changes in the control group. At 3-8 weeks after transplantation, there were significant differences in the rotation behaviors between the two groups (P<0.05). At 2 weeks after transplantation, tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cel s were found within and around the striatum of the cel transplantation group;but there were no exogenous cel s in the control group. At 8 weeks after transplantation, there were stil active cel s and tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cel s in the striatum of cel transplantation group, and there was no tyrosine hydroxylase expression in the striatum of the control group. These findings suggest that transplanted umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cel s can survive in the brain that are positive for tyrosine hydroxylase, which can improve the behavior abnormalities of Parkinson’s disease rats.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the expressions and significance of Yes-associated protein (YAP) and large tumor suppressor gene 1 ( LATS1 ) in renal clear cell carcinoma (RCCC).Methods There are 30 cases of RCCC,15 males and 15 females.The median age was 63 (36 - 77) years.There were 17 cases of stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ,13 cases of stage Ⅲ - Ⅳ.There were 8 cases well differentiated,13 cases moderately differentiated and 9 cases low differentiated.The expressions of YAP,LATS1 mRNA and proteins in 30 cases of RCCC and normal renal tissues were tested by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry,and were analyzed with clinical data.ResultsThe expression level of YAP mRNA in RCCC was higher than that in normal renal tissues (0.569 ± 0.066 vs 0.515 ±0.068,P =0.003 ),and the level of LATS1 mRNA in RCCC was lower than that in normal renal tissues (0.454 ± 0.115 vs 0.514 ± 0.093,P =0.029 ).Thepositive rate of YAP proteins in RCCC was obviously higher than that in normal renal tissues (63.3％ vs 33.3％,P =0.020),and the positive rate of LATS1 proteins in RCCC was lower than that in normal renal tissues (46.7％ vs 76.7％,P =0.017).The positive rate of YAP proteins was 33.3％ in well differentiated tissues,61.5％ in moderately differentiated tissues and 88.9％ in low differentiated tissues ( P =0.018),and the positive rate of LATS1 proteins was 75.0％ in well differentiated tissues,53.8％ in moderately differentiated tissues and 11.1％ in low differentiated tissues (P =0.024).The positive rate of YAP proteins was 47.1％ in stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ and 84.6％ in stage Ⅲ - Ⅳ ( P =0.034 ),and the positive rate of LATS1 proteins was 64.7％ in stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ,23.1％ in stage Ⅲ - Ⅳ ( P =0.024 ).ConclusionYAP and LATS1 play important roles in the development of renal clear carcinoma,and may become new targets in the treatment of RCCC.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the efficacy of the emergency ESWL within 24 hours after the onset of renal colic and elective ESWL at 5 ～ 14 days after the onset of renal colic in the treatment for ureteral stones.Methods 280 patients in the People's Hospital of Pingding,according to the wishes of patients with ureteral stones were admitted to our department for renal colic.All patients onset to treatment time 0.5 ～ 10h,They underwent emergency ESWL or elective ESWL with WD-ESWL Vi Guangdong Weida energy electromagnetic shock wave lithotripter.Success rate of fragmentation,stone-free rate after 2 weeks of operation,pain recurrence rate,and complications were evaluated.Results The success rate of fragmentation and the stone-free rate after 2 weeks of emergency ESWL were 97.18％ and 96.60％,respectively,which were higher than those(88.75％ and 87.61％,respectively)of elective ESWL(P ＜ 0.05).The postoperative pain recurrence rate of emergency ESWL(5.12％)was lower than that (10.24％)of elective ESWL(P ＜0.05).There was no difference of total complications between emergency ESWL (3.44％)and elective ESWL(2.98％)group(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Emergency ESWL is superior to selective ESWL and is the safe and effective method for the management of ureteral stones.
