ObjectiveTo study the synergistic effect of p38MAPK and ERK1/2 in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), and to explore their influence on osteogenic differentiation in BMSCs cultures. MethodsMouse BMSCs were cultured in phenol red-free α-MEM containing osteogenic supplements (OS) for inducing osteogenic differentiation. The temporal sequence of osteogenic differentiation in BMSCs cultures was assayed by measuring alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) and calcium deposition gene expression. The activation of p38MAPK and ERK1/2 was detected by western blotting using phospho-specific MAP kinase antibody. BMSCs were treated with the inhibitor of p38MAPK pathway(SB203580) or ERK1/2 pathway (PD98059), and osteogenic differentiation was measured. BMSCs were treated with SB203580 or sodium arsenite(ARS), a strong activator of p38MAPK, and the phosphorylation of ERK 1/2 was measured. BMSCs were treated with PP2A inhibitor, Okadaic acid(OA), the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and osteogenic differentiation were measured. lmmunoprecipitation was used to test the binding interaction between PP2A and ERK1/2, and the effect of SB203580 on the interaction. ResultsTreatment of BMSCs with osteogenic supplements resulted in activation of p38MAPK and ERK1/2 that coincided with osteogenic differentiation. Inhibition of p38MAPK activation by SB203580, blocked the osteogenic differentiation, whereas inhibition of ERK1/2 activation by PD98059, enhanced the osteogenic differentiation in a dose-dependent manner.SB203580 treatment resulted in increased ERK1/2 phosphorylation. By contrast, ARS treatment resulted in decreased ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Inhibition of PP2A by OA resulted in increased ERK1/2 phosphorylation. OS-induced osteogenic differentiation was also attenuated by PP2A inhibition. Immunoprecipitation confirmed the association of PP2A with ERK1/2 in BMSCs cultures, which was decreased by SB203580 treatment. ConclusionThe present study demonstrates a synergistic effect between p38MAPK and ERK1/2 signaling pathways via PP2A in BMSCs cultures, which may regulate the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in treating active rheumatoid arthritis (aRA).Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was carried out. Totally 148 aRA patients were divided into the control group and the treatment group, 74 cases in each group. Control group was treated with MTX (methotrexate) and LEF (leflunomide), while the treatment group took traditional Chinese medicine based on syndrome differentiation, on the basis of treatment with MTX and LEF. The therapeutic course for all was 3 months. Efficacy indexes, like clinical symptoms and signs, ESR, TCM syndrome integrals, DAS 28 score, and safety indexes were observed.Results This study finally completed 136 cases, including 69 cases in the treatment group and 67 cases in the control group. In the two groups, significant improvement of clinical signs and symptoms, ESR, DAS28, and TCM syndrome integrals after treatment were shown, with statistical significance (P<0.01). Better effects were obtained in the treatment group in lessening tender joint numbers and swollen joint numbers, DAS28, and TCM syndrome integrals (P<0.01). The total effective rate of the TCM syndrome efficacy was 86.96% (60/69) in the treatment group, and 76.12% (51/67) in the control group, without statistical significance (P>0.05). The significant efficiency of the treatment group was 11.59% (8/69), and the control group was 5.97% (4/67), with statistical significance (P<0.05). Adverse reactions occurred fewer in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.01).Conclusion Compared with single traditional Chinese medicine, integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine for treating aRA can better improve DAS28 and TCM syndrome integrals, and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.
