ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effect of the exosomes from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transfected with silence plasmid of Piezol small interference RNA (siRNA)on osteoarthritis (OA) animal model.@*METHODS@#Twenty male SD rats with specific pathogen free (SPF) were selected, ranging in age from 5.46 to 6.96 months, with a mean of (6.21± 0.75) months;and ranging in weight from 385.76 g to 428.66 g, with a mean of (407.21±21.45) g. BMSCs were extracted. The siRNA silencing plasmid of piezo1 was constructed by siRNA technology. After lentivirus was transfected into BMSCs, the exosomes were extracted. At the cellular level, BMSCs were divided into blank plasmid group and siRNA silencing plasmid group according to whether siRNA-Piezo1 was transfected or not. The osteogenic induction ability of siRNA-Piezo1 on BMSCs was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. At the animal model level, the OA model was established by surgical resection of cruciate ligament of knee joint.According to different treatment schemes, SD rats were divided into 4 groups:blank control group, model group, BMSCs group and exosome group. SD rats in the blank control group were not treated. In the model group, the cruciate ligaments of rats were excised and OA animal model was established. In BMSCs group, BMSCs were injected into knee joint under CT guidance after OA model establishment, and the cell volume was 5×10@*RESULTS@#The lentivirus transfection efficiency was(92.11±4.22)%. RT-PCR showed that the relative expression of Piezo1 mRNA in blank plasmid group was 1.07±0.06, which was significantly different from that of 0.31±0.01 in siRNA silencing plasmid group (@*CONCLUSION@#Piezo1 siRNA silencing vector can promote the differentiation of BMSCs into chondrocytes and effectively inhibit the progression of OA, so as to delay the disease of OA.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the impact of age on patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and normal persons. Methods Data was gathered from 8280 persons including 4873 males and 3407 females who were randomly selected. All subjects were devided into normal group and MS group. According to the interval of ten years, the subjects were devided into seven age groups, to calculate the difference of impaired fasting glycaemia (IFG) between patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and normal people, as well as the related portions. Results (1) The risk of IFG and DM appeared to be different among age groups among the target subjects as well as in the normal and the MS groups (P<0.05). (2) Among the whole subjects, the overall prevalence of IFG was increasing with age. The prevalence of DM had an increasing trend with age augment in 20-79 years group, whereas a decreasing trend appeared in people over 80 years of age. (3) For normal persons, the prevalence of IFG and DM were all increasing with age augment in 20-79 years group, and then decreasing with age augment in the over-80-years group. (4)For MS patients, the prevalence of IFG had an increasing trend with age augment in 20-69 years group, whereas a decreasing trend appeared in people over 70 years of age. There was no tendency of variation with age augment in DM.Conclusions (1) For normal persons, high prevalence rates of IFG and DM were correlated to age augment, especially in senior persons. (2) For MS patients, high prevalence of IFG was also correlated to age augment, but no association between prevalence of DM and age augment was seen. (3)Age from 70 to 79 years appeared to be in high risk with MS.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To determine the expression and significance of p75NTR in the neuron and glia of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) in different injury models.@*METHODS@#The models of sciatic nerve injury, spinal cord injury, and combined injury (sciatic nerve injury one week prior to spinal cord injury) were established. The rats were randomly divided into a normal group,a sciatic nerve injury group,a spinal cord injury group, and a combined injury group. The sensory neurons in the DRG were labeled by fast blue (FB) injected in the dorsal column of spinal cord 0.5mm rostral to the transection site. The expression of p75NTR in the neurons and glia of the DRG was examined with immunofluorescence histochemistry after different kinds of injury and its expression in the FB positive neurons was further observed with immunofluorescence histochemistry combined with FB retrograde labeling.@*RESULTS@#The expression of p75NTR was increased in the glia, but was downregulated in sensory neurons in the sciatic nerve injury group compared with the normal group. p75NTR immunoreactive products were downregulated in the glia in the spinal cord injury group compared with the sciatic nerve injury group or the combined injury group. In the combined lesion animals, the expression of p75NTR was similar to that of the sciatic nerve injury group. Its expression in the sensory neurons of DRG was downregulated,but was upregulated in the glia. The majority of sensory neurons labeled by FB in the combined injury group were p75NTR-negative, but surrounded by p75NTR-positive glia.@*CONCLUSION@#p75NTR immunoreactive products in the glia and neurons of DRG have significant discrepancy after injury. The glial p75NTR in the DRG may play a role in the enhanced regeneration of acsending tract in the injured spinal cord after combined injury.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the pathogens of acute respiratory infection of children.Methods A total of 159 children with acute respiratory infection who were hospitalized in our department from August 2005 to January 2006 were involved in this study.The serum IgM antibody of 18 pathogens were detected by indirect immunofluorescence test.The 18 pathogens included respiratory syncytial virus(RSV),adenovirus(ADV),influenza A(H1N1,H3N2)and B viruses,parainfluenza viruses(PIV) type 1,2,3 and 4,coxsackie virus B1(CBV1),coxsackie virus A7(CAV7),echovirus(ECHO7),haemophilus influenzae(HI),klebsiella pneumoniae(KP),bordetella pertussis(BP),bordetella parapertussis(BPP) and legionella pneumophila serotype 1 and 12.Results The evidence of specific IgM was obtained in 103 of 159 patients(64.78%).Influenza A was found in 66 cases(64.08%),influenza B in 49 cases(47.57%),enterovirus in 26 cases(25.24%),RSV in 18 cases(17.48%),PIV in 11 cases(10.68%),and co-infection in 66 cases(64.08%),1/ 3 of them were co-infected with influenza A and B.Conclusions Viruses are the most common agents of acute respiratory infection.Influenza virus is predominant among them.
