Objective To investigate the protective effect and the mechanisms of 17β-estradiol on ketamine-induced apoptosis on primary cultured rat cortical neurons. Methods Cortical neurons were primarily cultured for seven days,then divided into four groups :control group ( treated with equal valume of DMSO ),estradiol-treated group ( treated with 0.1 μmol·L-1 17β-estradiol),ketamine-treated group(treated with 100 μmol·L-1 ketamine),ketamine plus 17β-estradiol-treated group( treated with 0. 1 μmol·L-1 17β-estradiol+100μmol·L-1 ketamine). The neurons were treated for 24 hours. The neuron viability was determined by MTT. Neuroapoptosis was measured by nuclear morphometry after Hoechest 33258 dying. Western blotting was performed to detect the expression levels of cleaved-caspase-3 and Bcl-2protein. Results The neuron viability in the ketamine group was(54. 02±7. 78)%,significantly decreased from the control group,whereas ketamine plus 17β-estradiol increased the cell viability to(88. 09±6. 54)%,significantly higher than the ketamine group. The neuroapoptosis rate in the ketamine group was(49. 50±4. 34)%,significantly increased from the control group,while that in the drug combination group was(15. 74 ± 3. 40)%,significantly lower compared with the ketamine group. Meanwhile,the cleaved-caspase-3 expression increased,and Bcl-2 expression decreased remarkably after ketamine treatment,while which was reversed in the drug combination group. Conclusion 17β-estradiol can protect against ketamine-induced injury by inhibiting neuron apoptosis.

Obje:ctive To establish an optimized method to isolate, culture and identify human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) in vitro and induce their osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. Methods The hUCMSCs were isolated from human umbilical cord by digestion with collagenase. After serial subcultivation in vitro, the stem cells were passaged. Morphologic appearance of hUCMSCs was observed under an optical microscope and atomic force microscope. The proliferation rate was measured by MTT assay. Cell cycle and surface antigens were measured by flow cytometry. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation was tested and evaluated by specific staining methods. Results The isolation of hUCMSCs by digestion with collagenase was efficient. After seeded for 24 hours, the adherent cells showed spindle shape and fibroblast cell-like shape and the size of hUCMSCs was homogeneous. The similar growth curves of passage 3 and 7 exhibited a great potential for proliferation. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that CD29, CD44 and CD105 were highly expressed on the surface of passages 3 cells, but the expression was negative for CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR. After culture in inducing medium, the cells were successfully induced into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages. These cells were highly positive for alkaline phosphate staining and also showed mineralization presented with von kossa staining after 4 weeks' culture induction of osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, liquid vacuoles were detected by oil red O staining after 3 weeks' culture induction of adipogenic differentiation. Conclusion An in vitro method for isolation and purification of hUCMSCs from human umbilical cord has been established. The cultured cells were composed of only undifferentiated cells and their biological properties were stable. The hUCMSCs are expected to be a new type of stem cells of tissue engineering.
