Vascular endothelial growth factor expressing mesenchymal stem cells improves cardiac function in chronic myocardial infarction in pigs

Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells （MSCs） for myocardial reconstruction has shown promise in both animal models and human phase 1 clinical studies. Vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） is a strong therapeutic agent for treating ischaemia by inducing angiogenesis. The feasibility of ex vivo MSCs mediated gene transfer is documented. Matsumoto and colleagues have recently reported genetically engineered MSCs carrying VEGF165 delivery for revascularization in a model of acute myocardial infarction （MI）. The promising data from our laboratory in both angiogenesis and MSCs transplantation in cunicular heart model of acute MI have prompted us to attempt the combined and simultaneous application of the two strategies.

不同表面处理的种植入早期表面沉积物的分析研究

目的：比较两种不同表面处理的种植体在植入早期表面沉积物的差异及其骨组织反应。方法：将表面经双重酸-双氧水热处理和双重酸处理的种植体分别植入兔子胫骨内，然后，采用带能谱分析的扫描电镜观测2、4、8周带种植体的骨组织。结果：植入2周后在两组种植体表面均沉积富含钙磷层；4周时这层结构大部分消失，但双重酸-双氧水-热处理组可见较多的骨生成细胞附着在种植体表面并形成新骨。8周时两组种植体表面均附着一些新骨，但以双重酸-双氧水-热处理组相对较多。结论：两组种植体在植入早期表面均可形成富含钙磷层。     

1990-2004年上海地区临床分离大肠埃希菌耐药性变迁

目的 了解临床分离大肠埃希菌对抗菌药耐药性变迁情况。方法 对1990至2004年上海地区11所医院的细菌耐药监测资料中大肠埃希菌临床分离株的耐药性变迁情况进行分析，细菌药敏采用Kirby-Bauer法。结果 临床分离大肠埃希菌33495株对21种抗菌药药敏试验结果显示，该菌对大多常用抗菌药的耐药性在15年间呈上升趋势。对氨苄西林、哌拉西林的耐药率自69．0％和30．0％分别增至85．0％和71．4％。对头孢菌素类中的头孢唑啉（24．0％-48．3％）、头孢呋辛（18．0％-45．7％）、头孢克洛（33．3％-46．8％）的耐药率均增长，尤其是头孢噻肟的耐药率自1990年的6.0％增至2004年的35．2％。对氟喹诺酮类的耐药性15年间明显增高，且各品种间呈交叉耐药，自1990年的11．0％增至2004年的55．4％。对庆大霉素的耐药率缓慢上升（44．0％-54．0％）。大肠埃希菌对四环素、氯霉素、磺胺甲晤唑／甲氧苄啶（SMZ／TMP）耐药率始终较高。头孢他啶、头孢吡肟、亚胺培南、阿米卡星、β内酰胺类／β内酰胺酶抑制剂复方、呋喃妥因则保持了对大肠埃希菌的良好抗菌活性。产超广谱B内酰胺酶（ESBL）大肠埃希菌所占比例在2000-2004年间逐渐上升，自14．7％增至36．5％，产ESBL菌株耐药性均明显高于非产ESBL者。结论 临床分离的大肠埃希菌对常用抗菌药的耐药性在1990-2004年的15年间普遍呈明显增高趋势。 床分离的大肠埃希菌对常用抗菌药的耐药性在1990--2004年的15年间普遍呈明显增高趋势。     

应加强细菌耐药性和耐药菌感染的研究力度

细菌耐药性和耐药菌感染是21世纪感染领域面临的巨大挑战。目前临床存在的主要耐药菌如耐甲氧西林金葡菌（MRSA）、革兰阴性杆菌中产超广谱β内酰胺酶大肠埃希菌和克雷伯菌属、对第三代头孢菌素耐药的阴沟肠杆菌以及多重耐药铜绿假单胞菌、鲍曼不动杆菌、嗜麦芽窄食单胞菌等。近年来在社区感染中细菌耐药性也有增加趋势，其中全球许多国家报道的耐青霉素肺炎链球菌（包括PISP和PRSP）国内也同样存在并逐年增多，尤以儿童分离株中更为明显。     

Pivotal study of iodine-131-labeled chimeric tumor necrosis treatment radioimmunotherapy in patients with advanced lung cancer.

PURPOSE: Tumor necrosis treatment (TNT) uses degenerating tumor cells and necrotic regions of tumors as targets for radioimmunotherapy. Previous studies in animal tumor models and clinical trials have demonstrated that when linked to the therapeutic radionuclide iodine-131, recombinant chimeric TNT antibody ((131)I-chTNT) can deliver therapeutic doses to tumors regardless of the location or type of malignancy. Therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of (131)I-chTNT in advanced lung cancer patients were studied in this pivotal registration trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with advanced lung cancer were treated with systemic or intratumoral injection of (131)I-chTNT in eight oncology centers in China. The objective response rate (ORR) was assessed as the primary end point. RESULTS: All 107 patients who were entered onto the study and completed therapy had experienced treatment failure after prior radiotherapy or chemotherapy a mean of three times. The results showed an ORR of 34.6% (complete response, 3.7%; partial response, 30.8%; no change, 55.1%; and progressive disease, 10.3%) in all patients and 33% in 97 non-small-cell lung cancer patients. A biodistribution study demonstrated excellent localization of the radioactivity in tumors in both systemically and intratumorally injected patients. The most obvious adverse side effect was mild and reversible bone marrow suppression. CONCLUSION: Radioimmunotherapy with (131)I-chTNT was well tolerated and can be used systemically or locally to treat refractory tumors of the lung.
