Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), distributed in many tissues in the human body, are multipotent cells capable of differentiating in specific directions. It is usually considered that the differentiation process of MSCs depends on specialized external stimulating factors, including cell signaling pathways, cytokines, and other physical stimuli. Recent findings have revealed other underrated roles in the differentiation process of MSCs, such as material morphology and exosomes. Although relevant achievements have substantially advanced the applicability of MSCs, some of these regulatory mechanisms still need to be better understood. Moreover, limitations such as long-term survival in vivo hinder the clinical application of MSCs therapy. This review article summarizes current knowledge regarding the differentiation patterns of MSCs under specific stimulating factors.

Abstract
Objective: There is very limited evidence in the NHANES database linking serum apolipoprotein B and lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) in adults aged 20-59 years. There are few studies associating apolipoprotein B concentrations with BMD, and there is some debate about the association between obesity and BMD. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the association between serum apolipoprotein B concentrations and lumbar spine BMD in adults aged 20-59 years and to predict its association with risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis. Methods: A cross-sectional study of the entire US ambulatory population was conducted using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database. Weighted multiple regression equation models were used to assess the association between serum apolipoprotein B and lumbar BMD. A logistic weighted regression model was used to assess the association between serum apolipoprotein B concentrations and risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis. Subsequent stratified analyses were performed to refine the primary population of association. Results: Our study showed a significant negative association between serum apolipoprotein B concentration and lumbar BMD and a significant positive association with the risk of osteoporosis or osteopenia in the total population. After stratifying by sex, age and race, we concluded differently. The association of serum apolipoprotein B concentration with lumbar spine BMD and risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis was significant in male, but not in female. After stratification by age, the negative association between serum apolipoprotein B concentrations and lumbar BMD and the positive association with risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis was more significant in the 30-39 and 50-59 years age groups. When stratified by race, serum apolipoprotein B concentrations were significantly negatively associated with lumbar BMD and positively associated with risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis in Mexican American and non-Hispanic black populations. Thus, these findings suggest that these associations are influenced by sex, age, and race, respectively. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the association between serum apolipoprotein B levels and the risk of lumbar BMD and osteopenia or osteoporosis varies by sex, age, and race. In men, elevated serum apolipoprotein B levels were negative for bone quality. Elevated serum apolipoprotein B levels in the age groups 30-39 and 50-59 years also had a negative effect on bone quality. In the Mexican American and Non-Hispanic Black populations, elevated serum apolipoprotein B levels also had a significant negative effect on bone quality.

Abstract
Background: Previous studies had reported that vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms were related to the development of several inflammatory disorders. However, potential links between such variations and the risk of developing a bone infection and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to analyze potential associations between VDR genetic variations and susceptibility to extremity osteomyelitis (OM) in a Chinese Han population and investigate potential mechanisms. Methods: Between January 2016 and August 2020, altogether 398 OM patients and 368 healthy controls were genotyped for six VDR gene polymorphisms, including ApaI (rs7975232), BsmI (rs1544410), FokI (rs2228570), TaqI (rs731236), GATA (rs4516035), and Cdx-2 (rs11568820) by the SNaPshot genotyping method. Then, male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into vitamin D–standard, –excess, –deficient, and –rescued groups. One week after making the model surgery, OM occurrence and severity were assessed using the bacterial count and histopathological staining. In vitro, phagocytosis, apoptosis, and bactericidal ability of macrophages were evaluated by overexpression or knockdown of VDR protein. Results: Significant associations were found among rs7975232, rs1544410, and OM development by the recessive model (AA vs. AC + CC, p = 0.037, OR = 0.594), homozygous model (AA vs. CC, p = 0.033, OR = 0.575), and heterozygous model (CT vs. CC, p = 0.049, OR = 0.610), respectively. Patients with the AA genotype of rs7975232 had a relatively higher mean level of vitamin D than those with AC and CC genotypes (22.5 vs. 20.7 vs. 19.0 ng/ml). Similarly, patients with CT genotype of rs1544410 had a relatively higher mean vitamin D level than those with CC genotype (20.94 vs. 19.89 ng/ml). Outcomes of in vivo experiments showed that the femoral bacterial load of vitamin D–deficient mice was highest among different vitamin D dose groups, with the most severe histopathological features of infection, and vitamin D supplementation partly reversed the changes. While in vitro experiment results revealed that active vitamin D promoted phagocytosis and sterilization of macrophages and inhibited apoptosis during infection. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) inhibitor inhibited apoptosis of macrophages induced by bacterial infection. Active vitamin D inhibited excessive ROS production in macrophages via the VDR-Bmi1 signaling pathway. Conclusion: In this Chinese cohort, ApaI and BsmI are associated with a decreased risk of OM development by influencing serological vitamin D level, the latter of which reduced macrophage apoptosis with inhibition of excessive ROS production via the VDR-Bmi1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of asthma among the elderly people in China and to analyze the clinical features, self-management and cognitive level of elderly asthma patients. Methods: According to the multi-stage random cluster sampling methods, a total of 164 215 subjects were visited by a questionnaire in the last epidemiology survey from eight provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Liaoning, Henan, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Sichuan provinces) and seven regions (north, northeast, southern china, east, south, southwest and northwest) in China from February 2010 to August 2012. 2 034 were diagnosed as asthma. The elderly patients aged ≥65 years were selected from the 2 034 asthma patients. The clinical characteristics, comorbidities, the status of asthma control and self-management and insights of the disease in elderly asthma patients were analyzed. Results: Among the 2 034 asthma patients, 584 (28.7%) were elderly asthmatics aged ≥65 years old and 1 450 (71.3%) were<65 years old. In the elderly asthma group, Early-onset asthma accounted for 439 (75.2%) and 145 (24.8%) were late-onset. The common clinical manifestations of elderly asthma patients were: chest distress 395 (67.6%), wheezing 304 (52.1%), cough 298 (51.0%). Common comorbidities of elderly asthmatics were: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 144 (24.7%), allergic rhinitis 122(20.9%), gastroesopheal reflux disease (GERD) 114(19.5%), allergic conjunctivitis 86 (14.7%), eczema 82 (14.0%), chronic bronchitis 76 (13.0%). The Asthma Control Test (ACT) scores of elderly asthmatics and non-elderly asthmatics were (18.5±3.2) and (21.7±3.4) respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P=0.042). Of the elderly asthmatics, only 13 (2.2%) patients monitored daily using a peak flow meter. 93 (15.9%) patients aware that asthma was characterized by chronic airway inflammation. 64 (11.0%) asthmatics understood that the treatment goal. Conclusions: The clinical manifestations of elderly asthmatics are atypical, especially paroxysmal wheezing. Asthma in elderly people causes more comorbidities and mortality. The self-management and cognitive level of patients with asthma needs to be improved.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors of severe bronchial asthma in Chinese people over 14 years old. Methods: According to the multi-stage random cluster sampling methods, a total of 164 215 subjects were visited by a questionnaire in the epidemiology survey from eight provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Liaoning, Henan, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Sichuan provinces) located in seven regions (north, northeast, east, central China, south, southwest and northwest) of China from February 2010 to August 2012. A total of 2 034 were diagnosed as asthma. The clinical characteristics and related risk factors of patients with severe asthma in China were analyzed. Results: Among all asthma patients, 560 were newly diagnosed, accounting for 27.5% (560/2 034) and the percentage of previously confirmed patients was 72.5% (1 474/2 034). A total of 145 were eligible for severe asthma, accounting for 9.8% (145/1 474) of previously confirmed asthmatics and 7.1% (145/2 034) of all asthmatics. 83.5% (121/145) severe asthmatics had at least one trigger factor. Correlation analysis showed that the risk factors of severe asthma were: smoking (OR=1.543, 95%CI: 1.250-1.814), obesity (OR=2.186, 95%CI: 1.972-2.354), petting (OR=2.135, 95%CI: 1.904-2.283), combined with allergic rhinitis (OR=3.456, 95%CI: 2.721-4.326), gastroesophageal reflux disease (OR=1.842, 95%CI: 1.682-2.140), bronchiectasis (OR=1.665, 95%CI: 1.347-1.912) or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR=1.312, 95%CI: 1.171-1.694). Conclusions: The most common comorbidities in severe asthmatics in China are allergic rhinitis and gastroesophageal reflux disease. The risk factors of severe asthma include obesity, allergic rhinitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchiectasis, smoking and petting.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate genetic variants affecting mycophenolic acid (MPA) metabolism in Chinese renal transplant recipients. METHODS Total 11 SNPs of UGT1A9, UGT1A8, UGT2B7, ABCC2, ABCG2 and SLCO1B3 were genotyped in 408 Chinese renal transplant recipients. Associations between SNPs and MPA concentration/dose ratio (C0/D) were analyzed using different genetic models. Multivariate linear regression was used to analyze associations between log (C0/D) and clinical factors. Results: After adjustment by clinical factors, UGT2B7 rs7662029 was associated with log (C0/D) using a dominant (p = 0.041) and an additive (p = 0.038) model, ABCC2 rs717620 was associated with log (C0/D) using a recessive model (p = 0.019). Using additive model, SNP-SNP interactions were identified (p = 0.002) between ABCC2 rs717620 and UGT1A9 rs2741049, with interactions (p = 0.002) between ABCC2 rs717620 and UGT1A8 rs1042597. Age, albumin and serum creatinine were associated with log (C0/D). CONCLUSION rs7662029 and rs717620 may affect MPA pharmacokinetics. SNP-SNP interactions and clinical factors may have significant effects on MPA metabolism.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the CYP19A1 rs7176005 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) with breast cancer risk and with clinicopathologic features of tumors. Methods: This study was conducted by including 138 patients with breast cancer (cancer group), those who diagnosed as primary breast cancer after operation by pathology. There were 293 cases in the group of benign breast disease which was presented as a solid mass by the color ultrasound and pathologically diagnosed as "fibroadenoma or adenosis" (benign breast disease group), the cases were paired with breast cancer patients by age±5 in the same period, and there were 259 cases in the group of healthy control who received routine physical examination during the same period and were paired with breast cancer patients by age±5 without any detection of breast related diseases (healthy control group) at West China hospital between September 2012 and November 2016. The CYP19A1 rs7176005 SNP was detected by a direct sequencing method. Hardy-Weinberg test was used to analyze the genetic balance of the 3 groups. Chi square test was used to compare the distribution of rs7176005 genotypes between the 3 groups, and the differences of clinicopathological features in breast cancer patients carrying different genotypes. Results: The ages of the breast cancer cases, the benign breast disease group and the healthy control group were (44.69±8.09), (42.33±11.44) and (41.92±9.61) years old, respectively. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test identified that the composition ratios of alleles C and T in breast cancer group, benign breast disease group and healthy group were not statistically significant (χ(2) values were 0.83, 0.34 and 0.04, respectively, P values were 0.363, 0.561, and 0.852, respectively). All the three groups met the genetic balance, had consistency and could represent the population. Among the 138 cases of breast cancer, the CYP19A1 rs7176005 SNP was significantly associated with the diameter of the tumor (P=0.031). The majority of tumor size was <2 cm in patients who carrying TT and CT genotypes, and the proportion was 75% (12/16) and 58% (40/69), respectively. While those patients with TT genotype were mainly >2 cm and ≤5 cm, and the proportion was 51% (27/53). The distribution of TNM stage among patients with different genotypes was also statistically significant (χ(2)=11.19, P=0.025). The most common stage was Ⅱ in Patients who carrying CC and CT genotypes, and the proportion was 45.3% (24/53) and 52.2% (36/69), respectively. While those patients with TT genotype was mainly in stage Ⅰ and the proportion was 56.3% (9/16). Conclusion: Though the CYP19A1 rs7176005 SNP is not associated with breast cancer development, breast cancer patients with the C allele exhibit a high tumor growth rate and large diameters.

Abstract
Objective: To study the relationship between bronchial asthma and smoking status in Chinese people. Methods: Asthma epidemiological survey and stratified-cluster-random method survey were performed in residents over 14 years in 8 provinces (cities) of China from February 2010 to August 2012. Asthma was diagnosed based upon case history, clinical signs and lung function test. Smoking status was investigated by questionnaire. Results: Sampling population was 180 099 and 164 215 were valid. A total of 2 034 subjects were diagnosed as asthma including 79 692 men and 84 523 women. The overall prevalence rate of asthma was 1.24% (2 034/164 215). Smokers were 23.8% (39 137/164 215) in the whole population. Smokers were 34.5% (702/2 034) in asthmatic patients, compared with 23.7% (38 435/162 181) in no-asthmatic population. The incidence of asthma was 1.79% and 1.06% in smokers and non-smokers respectively (P<0.001), suggesting that OR of smoking was 1.70 (95% CI 1.55-1.86, P<0.001). According to asthma control test (ACT) score, the level of asthma control in non smoking group was higher than that in smoking group(43.2% vs 35.3%). The times of hospitalization due to acute exacerbations(0.51 vs 0.41 events/person/year), total hospitalization rate(27.35% vs 20.12%), annual emergency room visits (0.80 vs 0.60 events/person/year) and emergency room visit rate (31.77% vs 24.47%) were all much higher in smoking asthmatic patients than those in non smoking asthmatic patients, indicating that the level of asthma control in smoking patients was significantly worse than in non smoking patients. Conclusions: The smoking rate in Chinese people over 14 years is still high. The prevalence rate of asthma in smokers is significantly higher than that of non-smokers. The level of asthma control in smokers is significantly worse than that in non smokers.

Abstract
Important/potential value of macrolides has been proved in the management of chronic respiratory diseases by increasing basic and clinical trials.Through three face-to-face discussions, 10 experts examined important data and drafted this consensus related to macrolides: (1) mechanism of non-antiinfective effects; (2) clinical use in chronic respiratory diseases; (3) cautions of long-term use.The mechanism out of non-antiinfective effects includes anti-inflammatory effect, modifying airway secretion, immune-regulation related to antibacterial effect, corticoid saving effect and anti-viral effect.The efficacy of long-term use of low-dose macrolides is definitely confirmed in diffuse panbronchiolitis, chronic rhinosinusitis. It is considerably used in bronchiectasia, cystic fibrosis, severe asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Further studies should be conducted in cryptogenic organizing pneumonia and respiratory viral infection. It should be paid attention to its possible adverse effects (including drug interactions, cardiac toxicity, ototoxicity and disturbance of intestinal flora) and drug resistance in long-term use.A Chinese consensus for non-antiinfective effects and clinical use of macrolides is developed for the first time, which aims to expand their rational use and the further research.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the prevalence of severe asthmain China. Methods: The epidemiological data was collected from 2 034 asthmatics who were diagnosed in the last epidemiological survey from 2009 to 2010 in 8 provinces. Results: According to the questionnaire survey, among the 2 034 patients, the previously diagnosed patients accounted for 72.47% (1 474/2 034) and the percentage of newly-diagnosed patients was 27.53% (560/2 034). In those 1 474 previously diagnosed asthmatics, 122 (8.28%) were classified into severe asthma, while 6.00% (122/2 034) of all asthmatics and 0.07% (122/164 215) of total respondents presented as severe cases. Statistically, there was no difference in the prevalence of severe patients between men and women. The morbidity rate of severe asthma was the lowest in the 21-30 year old group and the highest in 61-70 year old group (0.85% and 8.31% respectively). The difference among ages was statistically significant (χ2=18.791, P=0.005). In addition, the prevalence rates of severe asthma were also significantly diverged among patients with different education background(χ2=24.639, P<0.000 1). A negative relation was found between education level and the proportion of severe cases. Moreover, the morbidity of severe asthma in smoking patients and non-smoking patients were significantly different as well (χ2=7.447, P<0.05). Compared with asthma patients who do not smoke, smokers were more likely to suffer severe asthma (OR=1.663, 95% CI 1.150-2.404). Conclusions: The prevalence rate of severe asthma in China is similar to that in other countries.Elderly patients have higher risk of severe asthma. Smoking is considered as a risk factor for severe asthma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The tryptophan-depleting enzyme indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is critical for the regulation of immunotolerance and plays an important role in immune-associated skin diseases. OBJECTIVES To analyse the level of IDO in condyloma acuminata (CA) and its role in this condition. METHODS IDO expression was assessed in the skin and peripheral blood of healthy controls and patients with CA. To assess the role of skin IDO in immunity, the ability of isolated epidermal cells to metabolize tryptophan and the influence on polyclonal T-cell mitogen (PHA)-stimulated T-cell proliferation were explored. RESULTS IDO median fluorescence intensities in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with CA were similar to those from healthy controls. Immunohistochemistry showed that IDO+ cells were rare in normal skin and the control skin of patients with CA, but were greatly accumulated in wart tissue. Most fluorescence signals of IDO+ cells did not overlap with those of CD1a+ Langerhans cells. Human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA probe in situ hybridization showed a large number of IDO+ cells in the HPV- site. Keratinocytes in the skin of healthy controls and the circumcised skin of patients with CA could minimally transform tryptophan into kynurenine, but IDO-competent epidermal cells from warts could transform tryptophan. In addition, these IDO-competent epidermal cells could inhibit PHA-stimulated T-cell proliferation. The addition of an IDO inhibitor, 1-methyl-d-tryptophan, restored the inhibited T-cell proliferation. CONCLUSIONS Abnormally localized high IDO expression might be involved in the formation of a local immunotolerant microenvironment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the genotyping characteristics and antibiotic resistance of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) isolated from lower respiratory tract at 2 different level hospitals in Shanghai. METHODS The subjects included 155 patients at Ruijin Hospital and Tongren Hospital between January 2013 and June 2014, including 108 males and 47 females, with a mean age of 67.8±16.5. The 155 MRSA strains were isolated from lower respiratory tract specimens and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and spa typing were analyzed by the PCR method. The antimicrobial resistance of MRSA was tested by VITEK-32. Fisher's exact test was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS Among the 155 strains, 28 MLST-spa molecular types were identified, of which ST764-t002(41.29%), ST239-t037(17.42%) and ST239-t030(10.32%) were the most predominant types. The MRSA strains were susceptible to linezolid, vancomycin and teicoplanin, and also had a lower resistance to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and rifampin, with a susceptible rate of 83.9% and 83.2% respectively, but were highly resistant to other antibiotics. The resistance rate of ST239-t037 to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was higher than that of other types, and the resistance rate of ST239-t030 to rifampin was higher than that of other types, the differences being significant(P<0.001). The mean length of hospital stay of the 155 patients was (97±84) days, and mechanical ventilation were used in 78(50.3%) patients, while 108(69.7%))patients received invasive procedures. Broad-spectrum antibiotics were used in 136 (87.1%) patients. There were differences in age, hospitalization days, smoking history, history of COPD, mechanical ventilation, and operation between the 2 hospitals(P<0.05). CONCLUSION Most of the MRSA strains at Ruijin Hospital and Tongren Hospital between January 2013 and June 2014 were multi-drug resistant, and the susceptibility spectrum of different genotypes was different.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emphysematous change on computed tomography (CT) during the stable phase of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is reported to correlate with COPD prognosis. Acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) is associated with a high risk of mortality and a poor prognosis. AIMS This study aims to study the relationship between prognosis and emphysematous changes on CT during an AECOPD. METHODS Histories were recorded, and CT acquired for 106 patients who visited the emergency department for an AECOPD. Emphysematous change was quantified by measuring the percentage of low-attenuation areas (LAA%) in the entire lung on CT images with a threshold of -950 Hounsfield units. Other factors that could influence AECOPD prognosis were also recorded on admission and analysed. At follow ups conducted in 1 year, patient survival, the modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) Dyspnoea Scale, and performance status (PS) were evaluated, and a COPD Assessment Test (CAT) was completed. RESULTS The 1-year follow up was completed by 103 of 106 patients. The median LAA% was significantly higher in non-survivors (11%, n = 16) than in survivors (5.69%, n = 87) (P = 0.006) at the 1-year follow up. LAA% was significantly correlated with mMRC grade (r = 0.285, P = 0.008), PS (r = 0.397, P < 0.001) and CAT score (r = 0.27, P = 0.017) at the 3-month follow up, and with mMRC grade (r = 0.405, P < 0.001) and PS (r = 0.377, P < 0.001) at the 1-year follow up. LAA% > 7.5% was a significant predictor of 1-year mortality, higher mMRC and PS at the 3-month and 1-year follow ups, after adjustment for other prognostic predictors. CONCLUSION Obvious emphysematous changes on CT (LAA% > 7.5%) during an AECOPD predicts a poor prognosis independent of other known indicators.

Abstract
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) influences cancer biology and is frequently dysregulated in malignancy. However, regulation of tumor local RAS remains poorly understood. Hypoxia is a hallmark of solid tumors and affects nearly every major aspect of cancer biology. Previous studies have shown that hypoxia can regulate RAS expression in somatic tissues and cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of hypoxia on local RAS expression in mouse Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells. For hypoxia treatment, LLC cells were cultured in a hypoxia incubator or treated with hypoxia-mimetic cobalt chloride. Hypoxia up-regulated angiotensin II, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R), and down-regulated ACE2 and angiotensin II type 2 receptor in LLC cells. Captopril, an ACE inhibitor, and losartan, an AT1R blocker, decreased expression of ACE and AT1R, but increased expression of ACE2 and angiotensin II type 2 receptor in LLC cells under hypoxia. Captopril and losartan also suppressed vascular endothelial growth factor-A expression in LLC cells under hypoxia. These findings suggest that hypoxia induces dysregulation of local RAS in LLC cells. The pathophysiological importance of hypoxia-induced RAS dysregulation and potentially therapeutic effects of RAS inhibitors on hypoxic tumor cells should be further examined.

Abstract
Published data on a possible association between the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene I/D polymorphism and obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) occurrence and its severity risk are inconclusive. We performed a meta-analysis of case-control studies published in English or Chinese. Thirteen studies, totaling 1361 cases and 1373 controls, were investigated for association of the ACE I/D polymorphism with OSAHS. We also made a study of ACE I/D with OSAHS severity risk, including 879 mild/moderate OSAHS patients and 357 severe OSAHS patients. A random-effects model was used, irrespective of between-study heterogeneity. Study quality was assessed in duplicate. Overall, the ACE I/D polymorphism was not significantly associated with an increase in OSAHS risk [odds ratio (OR) = 1.21; 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.88-1.65; P = 0.24]. In subgroup analysis by ethnicity, comparison of alleles I with D demonstrated a 58% (nonsignificantly) increased risk for OSAHS in Chinese (OR = 1.58; 95%CI = 0.92-2.70; P = 0.09). We also found that there was no significant association between ACE I/D and OSAHS severity risk. No publication biases were observed. This meta-analysis suggests that there is no significantly increased risk for OSAHS occurrence or severity associated with the ACE I/D polymorphism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the preventive effect of cardiomyopeptidin of small molecular weight polypeptide on rat hearts injured by ischemia-reperfusion. METHODS In a rat model injured by ischemia-reperfusion in the heart, observation was made on the influence of cardiomyopeptidin on the activities of creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), as well as on the content of MDA in plasma after the preventive drug was used. RESULTS Cardiomyopeptidin could obviously prevent the injury caused by ischemia-reperfusion, reduce the activities of CK and LDH and the content of MDA in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION Cardiomyopeptidin has a preventive effect on myocardium injured by ischemia-reperfusion and this may be related to its reducing the release of myocardial enzyme and anti-lipoperoxidation.

PATIENTS Eighteen consecutive patients having right-sided hepatolithiasis and a coexisting sharp ductal angulation associated with biliary stricture (group 1) were compared with 84 patients matched with sex, age, and conditions of hepatolithiasis and intrahepatic biliary stricture(s) but no sharp angulated duct (group 2). INTERVENTION Postoperative cholangioscopic management (electrohydraulic lithotripsy or other lithotripsy, lithotomy, balloon dilation, biopsy, etc, via T-tube tract or percutaneous transhepatic route). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Sessions of manipulations, incidence of complications associated with interventions or disease, and mortality were compared. RESULTS Patients of group 1 needed more sessions of postoperative manipulation of stones and strictures (13.7 +/- 4.2 vs 8.0 +/- 2.3; P < .001). During management, there was a significantly increased vulnerability of severe and/or recurrent cholangitis (66.7% vs 9.5%; P < .001), septic shock (77.8% vs 11.9%; P < .001), liver abscess (55.6% vs 7.1%; P < .001), or massive hemobilia (33.3% vs 7.4%) in group 1 than in group 2. Their risks of coexisting secondary biliary cirrhosis (55.6% vs 9.5%; P < .001) and/or cholangiocarcinoma (16.6% vs 2.4%; P < .04) and mortality (27.8% vs 4.8%; P < .01) were also significantly higher in group 1. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that the coexisting sharp ductal angulation with biliary strictures in right-sided hepatolithiasis is a distinct difficult clinical entity in the field of biliary tract calculi.

Abstract
Lung biopsies with light microscopic and ultrastructural observations were performed in 34 cases of diffuse pulmonary diseases. Open lung biopsy 2 cases, transfiberoptic bronchoscopy lung biopsy 32 cases. There were 19 (56%) idiopathic interstitial fibrosis, 3 (9%) pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, 3 (9%) pulmonary sarcoidosis, 1 (3%) idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis, 2 (6%) pulmonary mycosis, 1 (3%) alveolar cell carcinoma, 2 (6%) pulmonary tuberculosis and 3 (9%) pulmonary collagen diseases. Diagnosis was based on clinical data and pathologic manifestation. Lung biopsy with light and electronic microscopic examination is useful in etiologic diagnosis and differential diagnosis for diffuse pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
Effects of cytokines on murine megakaryocyte (MK) colony formation from either unfractionated marrow cells or purified early haematopoietic cells were studied. Recombinant interleukin-3 (IL3), interleukin-6 (IL6), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), erythropoietin (Epo) and acidic and basic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF and bFGF) each was able to stimulate MK colony growth although they varied somewhat in their potential. IL6 and FGFs, in addition to their effect on MK colony growth, increased the size of individual MK. The combination of IL3 with IL6 or FGF resulted in an additive action. Monoclonal anti-IL6 antibody completely neutralized the activity of mouse IL6 and FGFs but had no effect on human IL6, mouse IL3 and GM-CSF. When using purified lineage negative marrow cells, only IL3 and IL6 promoted MK colony formation. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) at 10-200 pg/ml selectively inhibited IL3-induced MK colony formation, and at 0.2-0.5 ng/ml it still had no obvious effect on the activity of IL6 or GM-CSF but caused an inhibition of FGF-induced MK colony formation. These data suggest that differential mechanisms are involved in the regulation of megakaryocytopoiesis by IL3, IL6, FGFs and GM-CSF, and that TGF-beta 1 negatively regulates MK development mainly by interfering with the action of IL3.

Abstract
A monoclonal antibody, SZ-2, reacts specifically on human platelets and megakaryocytes. The platelets from 10 normal donors are bound to 15,200 +/- 4,100 SZ-2 molecules/platelet. The antigen recognized by SZ-2 is chymotrypsin-sensitive but neuraminidase-insensitive, and has been identified as glycoprotein Ib (GPIb) by an affinity chromatography technique. SZ-2 is different from other monoclonal antibodies to GPIb. It inhibits not only platelet aggregation induced by ristocetin, but also platelet aggregation induced by collagen (type I) and by PAF. SZ-2 also inhibits platelet serotonin and beta-thromboglobulin release in response to these stimuli.
