BACKGROUND:Tissue and cellimplantation entails high-quality seed cells. In order to satisfy this requirement, it is crucial to produce adequate wel-conditioned, high-purity and strong proliferation ability bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells.
OBJECTIVE:To establish a simple, rapid and effective in vitro isolation and culture method of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, and to define the biological features of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
METHODS:Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from the bilateral tibial and femoral bones by the method of whole bone marrow, then purified and passaged by attachment method. The morphology and features of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were observed, the growth curve was drawn and the cellsurface antigen was detected by flow cytometry. The bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were induced to differentiate along the osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic lineages.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells isolated by the whole bone marrow adherence method grew vigorously and were highly purified. The cultured cells were spindle-shaped. The growth curve was S-shaped and the population doubling time was 29 hours. The cells stil maintained a strong proliferative capacity after they were passaged for 10 generations. The surface markers such as CD44, CD29, CD90 were positive, while CD45, CD34, CD11b were negative. At the third passage, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were induced to differentiate along the osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic lineages, respectively. Fol owing induction, Alizarin red staining, alkaline phosphatase staining, von-kossa mineralized nodules staining, toluidine blue staining, and oil red O staining were al positive. This shows that the whole bone marrow adherence method is a simple and reliable method for the in vitro isolation, culture and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Moreover, they have multi-lineage differentiation capacity under different inducers. The third passage bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have the highest biological activity and can act as the ideal seed cells for subsequent experiments.

Objective To explore the clinical value of preparatory treatment using estradiol valerate and mifepristone before the curettage of the late small missed abortion.Methods One hundred and twenty patients with late small missed abortion were randomly divided into two groups:pretreated group(n =660) and control group(n =60).Women in the pretreated group were given 5 mg of Estradiol Valerate 3 times/day and 25 mg of Mifepristone twice/day for 3 days each before conducted curettage on the fourth day.While for the control group,curettage was done directly.The condition of operation and the occurrence of short-and long-term complications were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the pretreated group had a significant shorter operation duration[(8.6±2.7) rnin vs.(10.5±3.4) min,t =3.390,P =0.001]and less blood lose during operation[(47.5±18.3) ml vs.(61.8±20.5) ml,t =4.031,P ＜ 0.001].In terms of complications,the rates of incomplete curettage[(0 vs 13.3％,x2 =6.563,P =0.010],artificial abortion syndrome(3.3 ％ vs 15.0％,x2 =4.904,P =0.027),the cervical canal adhesion/Asherman' s syndrome(0 vs 11.7％,x2 =5.461,P =0.019),and the vaginal bleeding duration[(7.5±2.7) days vs(8.7±3.4) days,t =2.141,P =0.034]in the pretreated group were significantly lower than those in the control group.The average recovery time of menstruation after operation in the pretreated patients was significantly shorter than that in the control group[(30.5±9.3) days vs.(35.5±7.4) days,t =3.259,P =0.002].Contusion Estradiol valerate and Mifepristone as a preparatory treatment before the operation can help reduce the occurrence of complications and side effects in the late small missed abortion curettage and is helpful for the patients' recovery,thus worth wide clinical application.

Objective To investigate and analyze the postoperative progression of ossification of the patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) on cervical spine. Methods From Jaunary 2001 to December 2007, 95 postoperative patients with cervical OPLL were followed and analyzed retrospectively. There are 72 males, 23 females, with the average age of 56.3 years (range, 40-73years). The follow-up time was from 1 to 6 years, average 3.1 years. Among them 36 patients were performed with anterior cervical corpectomy, fusion with titanium mesh and fixed with cervical plates, others treated with posterior cervical laminectomy and fixation. 2 of the 95 cases were performed anterior and posterior combined operation. Clinical data, X-rays, CT and MR images and progression of ossification, were measured and analyzed in details .The relationships between the progression of ossification and relative factors, as gender, age, C3 ossified involved, T-OPLL, OPLL-type, time of follow-up, surgical approach, Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores and improvement rate of JOA scores, were analyzed. Results Progression of ossification in 39 cases among the 95 followed postoperative OPLL patients, 28 men and 11 women, average age 55.9 years, range 41-71 years. The age of progressed patients included 12 cases of ≤49 years, 12of 50-59 years, 12 of 60-69 years and 3 of ≥70 years. 35 patients were operated by posterior approach and only 4 treated with anterior operation. According to the standard of the progression of ossification that 2 mm in the length or/and thickness, there are 4 cases progressed only in length, 2 only in thickness, other 33 patients both the length and thickness. Progression of length is from 2mm to 20mm (average 7.74±4.71). But thickness is progressed from 2 mm to 6 mm (average 2.67±1.51). From 1 to 3 years follow-up time it appeard as a downtrend about the progression of ossification. But it may appear an uptrend from the 4th year. JOA score and improvement rate of the JOA score were almost improved to the high-point in three years. And according to the statistic data there are obvious relationship between progression of ossification with age, surgical approach and C3 ossified involved. Conclusion There is a high rate of postoperative ossification progression in cervical OPLL patients. Cervical OPLL patients with C3 ossification involved, performed with posterior laminectomy and those young at surgery may have higher rate of progression of the ossification. The JOA score and improvement rate of the JOA score were little influenced by the progression of the OPLL during the short and intermediate-term follow-up.

Objective To investigate the related factors for Alzheimer's disease(AD) in Han versus Uygur populations in Uygur Autonomous Region.Methods A case-control study was conducted.Firstly,people over 50 years old were involved in epidemiology inquisition in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Then we screened for dementia by MMSE and scrutinized the person who got the score of MMSE for illiteracy(≤17),elementary school(＜20),middle school and above it(＜ 24)by Hachinski Ischemic Score(HIS) and activity of daily living scale(ADL).Finally,AD cases were diagnosed by standard of the national institute of neurologic,communicative disorders and stroke and AD-related disorders association (NINCDS-ADRDA),and controls were selected based on age roughly.Univariate and multivariate analysis of related factors for AD in the two populations were conducted by using logistic regression mode.Results There were 109 AD cases and 218 controls in Han population and 127 AD cases and 254 controls in Uygur population.Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk for AD in Han population was increased by 3.078,1.369 and 2.794 folds respectively in women,people with high level of serum total cholesterol and people with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol as compared with men,people with normal level of serum total cholesterol and people with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(OR =3.078,1.369 and 2.794,respectively,all P＜ 0.05); and the risk for AD in Uygur population was increased by 3.279,3.447,1.407 and 1.746 folds respectively in women,people with brain trauma history,and people with high level of serum triglyceride and total cholesterol as compared with men,people without brain trauma history and with normal level of serum triglyceride and total cholesterol(OR=3.279,3.447,1.407 and 1.746,all P＜ 0.05).Conclusions The study demonstrates that female and high total cholesterol are the risk factors for AD in both of Han and Uygur populations.High level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol is one of the risk factors for AD in Han population,and brain trauma history and high level of serum triglyceride are risk factors for AD in Uygur population.
