ABSTRACT
Objective To study the mechanical effects of cyclic strain on neural differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs). Methods The rBMSCs were subjected to cyclic strain for 24 hours andthen cultured for 5 days. The expression of neural markers and the phosphorylation of relative signaling pathway proteins were evaluated. The stress distribution on cell surface was analyzed by finite element method. The differentially expressed genes induced by strain were identified by RNA sequencing analysis. Results The 0. 5 Hz strain with 5% magnitude could significantly induce higher expression of neural markers and elevated phosphorylation level of extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK), protein kinase B (AKT) and mammalian target of rapamycin ( mTOR). KEGG pathway analysis showed that the focal adhesion and ECM-receptor interaction were significantly enriched under cyclic strain. Conclusions Cyclic strain could change the interaction of cells with the extracellular matrix ( ECM) and enhance the AKT/ mTOR and ERK pathway, finally promote rBMSC neural differentiation. Knowledge about the impact of mechanical stimulation on BMSC neural differentiation is expected to improve the efficiency of stem cell differentiation, shed light on device design for tissue engineering, and promote clinical application of mesenchymal stem cells in neural issue repair and regeneration.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the status quo of emergency rescue for public health emergencies by medical staff under regular pandemic prevention and control， analyze its influencing factors， and provide evidence for formulating intervention measures. MethodsAn online questionnaire was conducted among the medical staff of Jinshan District public medical institutions， and the possible influencing factors were analyzed by multiple linear stepwise regression analysis. The questionnaire included general information and knowledge， attitude， and behavior of emergency rescue. ResultsA total of 1，614 valid questionnaires were collected. The total average score of emergency rescue performance was （4.01±0.83）， which was at a high level. The average scores of emergency rescue knowledge and attitude were （4.07±0.80） and （4.21±0.70） respectively， which were at a high level， and the average scores of emergency rescue behavior were （3.25±1.23）， which was at a medium level. Regression analysis， age， department， occupation， hospital level， whether to participate in emergency training， whether to participate in emergency drills were the main influencing factors of emergency rescue knowledge and practice （P<0.05）. ConclusionUnder the situation of major public health emergencies， the knowledge， attitude and practice of emergency rescue of medical personnel are generally at a good level， and the behavior of emergency rescue is at a medium level. Emergency rescue training and drills should be strengthened for medical personnel of different ages， occupations， departments， levels of hospitals， and sections.
