Article Synopsis
  • - Zoledronic acid (ZOL), used to treat osteoporosis, showed that the generic version Yigu® is clinically as effective as the original Aclasta® in Chinese postmenopausal women.
  • - The study involved 458 women, comparing the bone mineral density changes after 12 months of treatment between the two ZOL formulations, revealing no significant differences in effectiveness.
  • - This evaluation supports the use of Yigu® in clinical settings, having proven its safety and efficacy comparable to Aclasta® for treating osteoporosis.

Glioma stem/progenitor cells contribute to neovascularization via transdifferentiation.

Stem Cell Rev Rep

March 2011

Department of Neurosurgery, The 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Suzhou University, 1055 Sanxiang Road, Suzhou 215004, People's Republic of China.

Objective: Previous studies suggest that tumor cells might be the progenitor for tumor vasculature. Whether vascular tube formation from transdifferentiation of human glioma stem/progenitor cells (hGSPCs) contribute to angiogenesis of gliomas remain largely uncertain.

Methods: hGSPCs were isolated from thirteen surgical specimens of gliomas and cultured in medium favored for stem cell growth.

September 2008

Department of Cerebral Surgery of the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Suzhou University, the Laboratory of Aging and Neuro-Diseases of Suzhou University, Suzhou 215004, China.

Objective: It is well known that glioma stem cells-progenitors (GSCP) proliferate indefinitely and hardly differentiate in vitro, however, the reasons remain unknown. The aim of this study was to explore the ultrastructural basis of GSCP.

Methods: GSCP, kept by our laboratory, were collected, embedded, and cut into ultrathin sections and observed under the transmission electron microscope.
