Objective To observe the migration and distribution of OECs in injured spinal cord and discuss their relation with the recovery of spinal cord function. Methods The rats were contused by a force of 10 g · 25 mm with NYU-impactor at T10 level. The OECs acutely isolated from green fluorescence protein (GFP) rats were purified, identified and then transplanted into the injured site and the rostral and caudal parts of the spinal cord one week after injury, with total volume of the transplanted OECs for 90 000/μl. Within 13 weeks after transplantation, the migration and distribution of OECs were qualitatively observed on the cryo-sections under fluorescence light microscope. The area and the length of OECs distribution were semi-quantitatively determined. The locomotor function of the spinal cord was appraised by BBB score. Results OECs were located collectively in the transplanted site at early stage after transplantation and then spread gradually mainly along the long axis of the cord. OECs could be found in the cavity of the contused spinal cord. The area and the length of OECs distribution were increased from 1.33 mm2 and 4.23 mm respectively at one week to 3.30 mm2 and 7.68 mm respectively at 13 weeks after transplantation. In the meantime, the locomotor function was gradually improved. Conclusion OECs can migrate within the contused spinal cord, as may contribute to the recovery of locomotor function.

A simple,fast and highly sensitive fluorescence analysis method for detection of mercury ion was developed based on N-methyl-mesoporphyrin IX (NMM)/G-quadruplex DNA system and specific T-Hg-T mismatches.In this strategy,a large number of thymine was introduced into guanine-rich oigonucleotides which could form G-quadruplex.In the presence of Hg2+,guanine-rich oigonucleotides and complementary strand could form double-stranded DNA molecule by specific T-Hg-T mismatch pair,leading to destruction of G-quadruplex DNA structure.In the absence of Hg2+,guanine-rich oigonucleotides spontaneously formed G-quadruplex DNA structure that could bound NMM to generate intense fluorescence.Based on the above facts,a sensitive fluorescence biosensor for determination of Hg2+ was fabricated.And the optimal conditions for Hg2+ determination were as follows:buffer solution pH of 6.7,20 mmol/L KCl and 2.5 μmol/L NMM in buffer and incubation for 2 h.Under the optimal conditions,the fluorescence intensity signal change (F0-F) and the Hg2+ concentration exhibited a linear correlation within 50 nmol/L to 1000 nmol/L range with a low detection limit of 22.8 nmol/L (3σ).The biosensor exhibited good selectivity toward common metal ions.The developed method was successfully employed to detect Hg2+ in tap water with recovery of 106.1％-107.8％.
