BACKGROUND: Distraction osteogenesis is an effective method for large bone defects, bone tumors and osteomyelitis. However, there is a lack of a standard model in the basic research concerning distraction osteogenesis. OBJECTIVE: To establish a rabbit femoral model of distraction osteogenesis and to assess its osteogenic effect. METHODS: Twenty male New Zealand rabbits were enrolled to establish the rabbit femoral model of distraction osteogenesis using a novel distractor. Subsequently, the gross observation and X-ray examination of the specimens were performed to assess the osteogenic effect. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Gross observation: on day 14 after fixation, there were light-colored and dense newborn bones distributing evenly in the distraction gap, and appeared with a columnar connection with the broken ends; the boundary with normal bones became vague. On day 35, the surface of newborn bones in the distraction gap showed the same color and texture with the normal ones, the boundary between the newborn and normal bones was difficult to distinguish, and the bone mineral density was increased notably. Radiology results: on day 14 after fixation, the stent was fixed stably, the broken ends got good reduction, and cloudy shallows connecting the two ends of the normal bones in the distraction gap and increased bone mineral density were detectable. Completely calcified new-born bones, intact bone cortex and open medullary canal were further visible on day 35. These results suggest that the rabbit femoral model of distraction osteogenesis is established successfully using the self-designed single-arm distractor based on rational surgical procedures and standard operations.

Chemical genetics is the science which takes the small molecular compounds as tools to solve the genetics problems or to disturb/adjust normal biological process so as to find out protein functions. Because the small molecules have the diverse chemical characters and the ability to identify the target proteins, they also can be filtrated on the basis of phenotype. So the methods of chemical genetics have been applied in almost all of the researches on biology and medicine. In this paper, the methods to acquire small molecular compounds are introduced. The enormous progress achieved in the field of combinatorial chemistry, which has allowed the rapid production of a large number of chemically diverse molecules, is an important prerequisite to make chemical libraries available to academic researchers. And the applications of the compounds in early embryo development, cell differentiation, on-set and course of disease are discussed, too. The application of small molecules has an enormous impact on our understanding of cell biology. There are many examples where small molecules, in combination with genetic screens, have facilitated the dissection of complex cellular processes.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with electrical stimulation in patients with dysphagia after stroke.Methods:Seventy-two stroke patients with dysphagia who received treatment in The First Hospital of Jiaxing from February 2019 to February 2020 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either electrical stimulation (control group, n = 36) or high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with electrical stimulation (observation group, n = 36) for 2 weeks. Changes in serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor, neuron-specific enolase, and vascular endothelial growth factor levels after treatment relative to before treatment were observed in each group. Scores of the swallowing function assessment scale, neurological deficit, and quality of life were compared between the control and observation groups. Results:After treatment, serum levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and vascular endothelial growth factor in the observation group were (7.98 ± 1.14) μg/L, (168.78 ± 10.28) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the control group [(5.80 ± 1.10) μg/L, (110.34 ± 10.47) ng/L, t = 8.26, 23.90, both P < 0.01]. Serum neuron-specific enolase level was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group [(7.57 ± 1.17) μg/L vs. (10.66 ± 1.30) μg/L, t = 10.60, P < 0.001). The scores of swallowing function assessment scale and neurological deficits in the observation group were (2.47 ± 1.16) points and (7.03 ± 1.14) points, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(5.75 ± 1.10) points, (9.66 ± 1.20) points, t = 12.31, 9.53, both P < 0.001]. Total effective rate [97.22% (35/36) vs. 77.78% (28/36)] and the score of swallowing quality of life questionnaire [(160.40 ± 8.32) points vs. (146.74 ± 8.10) points] were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group ( χ2 = 4.57, P = 0.03, t = 7.25, P < 0.001). Conclusion:High-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with electrical stimulation can greatly improve neurological function and swallowing function of stroke patients with dysphagia. The combined therapy is of certain clinical value and innovation.
