Ovarian carcinoma is mainly treated by surgery aided by chemotherapy. If supplemented by stem cells treatment, its recurrence rate and mortality rate will be decreased. This is a new therapy. In this study, ovarian cancer cells were cultured together with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs), and the interactions between them were observed. The results showed that the survival rates of UCMSCs increased to 83.8 ± 2.2% from 56.5 ± 5.5%, and the survival rates of ovarian cancer cells decreased to 16.2 ± 2.2% from 43.5 ± 5.5% with the progression of the cultural time from 24 to 96 hr. There was a significant difference between them (p < .05). It revealed that UCMSCs could inhibit the proliferation of ovarian cancer cells.
Abstract. Food safety concerns people's health, life, even social harmony and stability. Also, it is an important scientific problem of the development of mankind. How could we strengthen our national food security? Firstly, a long-lasting scientific system of food safety should be formed. Only by enhancing the construction of this scientific system, building up the development platform of food safety, improving the science and technology level in this field, carrying out the rapid detection skills of food safety, controlling technology research, forming a joint force of government regulation and public surveillance, we could ensure food security fundamentally. Secondly, we need form a management system with strict legal liability and clear public responsibility, and need establish a food safety warning system and risk assessment system, strengthen the food information construction, improve the international standards of food quality, and constantly increase the level of food safety, so as to control the food pollution, reduce the foodborne diseases, and ensure the consumer's health.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
