MicroRNA-223-3p (miR-223-3p) is one of the potential microRNAs that have been shown to alleviate inflammatory responses in pre-clinical investigations and is highly encased in exosomes derived from bone mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-exosomes). MSC-exosomes are able to function as carriers to deliver microRNAs into cells. Autoimmune hepatitis is one of the challenging liver diseases with no effective treatment other than steroid hormones. Here, we examined whether MSC-exosomes can transfer miR-223-3p to treat autoimmune hepatitis in an experimental model. We found that MSC-exosomes were successfully incorporated with miR-223-3p and delivered miR-223-3p into macrophages. Moreover, there was no toxic effect of exosomes on the macrophages. Furthermore, treatments of either exosomes or exosomes with miR-223-3p successfully attenuated inflammatory responses in the liver of autoimmune hepatitis and inflammatory cytokine release in both the liver and macrophages. The mechanism may be related to the regulation of miR-223-3p level and STAT3 expression in the liver and macrophages. These results suggest that MSC-exosomes can be used to deliver miR-223-3p for the treatment of autoimmune hepatitis.

We herein report an analysis of a female baby with a de novo dup(10p)/del(10q) chromosomal aberration. A prenatal cytogenetic analysis was performed owing to abnormal ultrasound findings including a choroid plexus cyst, prominent cisterna magna, and a slightly medially displaced stomach. The fetal karyotype showed additional material attached to the terminal region of chromosome 10q. Parental karyotypes were both normal. At birth, the baby showed hypotonia, upslanting palpebral fissures, a nodular back mass, respiratory distress, neonatal jaundice and a suspicious polycystic kidney. We ascertained that the karyotype of the baby was 46,XX,der(10)($pter{\rightarrow}q26.3::p11.2{\rightarrow}pter$) by cytogenetic and molecular cytogenetic analyses including high resolution GTG-and RBG-banding, fluorescence in situ hybridization, comparative genomic hybridization, and short tandem repeat marker analyses. While almost all reported cases of 10p duplication originated from one of the parents with a pericentric inversion, our case is extraordinarily rare as the de novo dup(10p)/del(10q) presumably originated from a rearrangement at the premeiotic stage of the parental germ cell or from parental germline mosaicism.

우리나라, 일본, 미국의 임상병리사 명칭은 의료체계, 교육제도, 업무영역에 따라 차이가 있다. 전통적으로 medical technologist (별칭 clinical laboratory technologist, medical laboratory technologist, clinical laboratory scientist, medical laboratory scientist)와 동등하거나 유사한 직종은 histotechnologist, cytotechnologist, genetic technologist이다. Extracorporeal technologist, medical electrophysiology technologist, medical sonographer는 medical technologist를 포함한 다른 보건의료인도 자격을 취득할 수 있는 직종이다. 임상병리사의 업무영역은 임상병리기술학, 병리기술학, 임상유전기술학, 핵의학기술학, 임상생리기술학으로 분류하였다. 새로운 전문임상병리사 종별은 CLMJ, CMAJ, ASCP, IAC, ABRET, ARMDS 등의 자격인정제도를 참고하였다. 현재 전문임상병리사 종별은 전문과목학회의 협조 하에 기존의 8종으로 혈액학, 수혈학, 화학, 면역학, 미생물학, 조직학, 세포학, 핵의학분야가 있으며 앞으로 미세질량분석, 감염관리, Pathologists' Assistant, 유세포분석, HLA, 세포유전학, 분자유전학, 심폐생리학, 신경생리학(뇌파/근전도/수면다원 등), 심장초음파학, 신경초음파학(뇌혈류/경동맥), 기기품질관리사 등 업무영역별로 20종으로 세분화할 수 있다.
