ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of erythropoietin(EPO)on the proliferation of neural stem cells(NSCs)derived from central canal of adult rat spinal cord in vitro ,so as to provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment of spinal cord injury by autotransplanting or allograft transplanting of adult spinal cord NSCs. Method NSCs were isolated from the central canal of the adult rats spinal cord by microsurgical method,and Nestin(nestin)and Sox2 immunofluorescence stain were used to identify the cells. After cells were treated with different dose of EPO,5,10,20 and 40 U/mL,respectively,the optical treatment concentration and time were determined by CCK8 assay. The effect of EPO on the cell count and the expression of Cyclin D1 in NSCs were detected at the treatment time 96 h. Result The NSCs derived from the central canal of adult SD rats spinal cord could stably express protein Nestin and transcription factor Sox2. As the results of CCK8 test,cell counts and real-time quantitative PCR showed the optimal treatment of concentration and time maybe 20 U/mL and 96 h. Conclusions This study shows that EPO can promote the proliferation of NSCs derived from central canal of adult rat spinal cord,and the optimal treatment of concentration and time for proliferation might be 20 U/mL and 96 h.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of lienal polypeptide injection on immune function in patients with chronic kidney disease(stage CKD5,uremia).Methods 42 patients with maintenance hemodialysis and 42 patients with peritoneal dialysis in stage CKD5 phase were selected as the research subjects.According to the digital table,they were randomly divided into observation group and control group,32 cases in each group.All patients were treated with hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis,the observation group was treated with lienal polypeptide injection,while the con-trol group was treated without lienal polypeptide injection.The immune function index(CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+) were compared between the two groups after treatment for 15 d.Results In the observation group,the immune index after 15 days treatment were CD3+(58.26 ±7.90)%,CD4+(34.46 ±6.45)%,CD8+(25.33 ±4.47)%,CD4+/CD8+(81.36 ±0.21).In the control group,the immune index after 15 days treatment were CD3+(55.64 ±5.32)%,CD4+(31.79 ±7.15)%,CD8+(27.52 ±4.68)%,CD4+/CD8+(1.16 ±0.18).CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ levels of the obser-vation group were significantly higher than those of the control group(t =2.820,t =1.610,t =7.060,all P <0.05). The level of CD8+ was significantly lower than that of the control group(t =0.004,P <0.05).Conclusion Lienal polypeptide can effectively improve the immune function of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD5 stage).
