BACKGROUND:As bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can be differentiated into osteoblasts under certain induction conditions, autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can be implanted into the bone nonunion site of bone fracture. This new technology garners increasing attention of orthopedic clinicians.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the clinical efficacy of transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in the treatment of bone nonunion of limb fractures.
METHODS:A computer-based search of Foreign Medical Journal Ful-Text Service and CNKI databases was performed for articles related to bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s for treatment of bone nonunion of limb fractures published from 1998 to 2014 using the keywords of“bone marrow stem cel s (BMSCs), stem cel transplantation (SCT), nonunions, tissue engineering”in English and Chinese, respectively. Literatures with repetitive content and lack of originality were excluded. A total of 36 literatures were obtained for further analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s are transplanted into the end of bone nonunion, and then can be induced to differentiate into osteoblasts to repair bone nonunion and bone defects,
laying a theoretical basis for clinical application. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can repair bone defects, which provides an effective method and material to promote fracture healing. Transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s is safe and effective for treatment of bone nonunion of limb fracture.

BACKGROUND: Hydroxyapatite has favorable biocompatibility, can protect pulp tissue and promote the formation of osteoid dentin and the concrescence of pulp tissue. However, hydroxyapatite has no capability of anti-infection. Increasing scholars deem that antibacterials should be added with the hydroxyapatite during the treatment of vital pulp conservation to elevate curative effects.OBJECTIVE: To observe the curative effects of self-solidifying hydroxyapatite/norvancomycin composite as pulp capping material and to make a comparison with calcium hydroxide.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The present randomized controlled observation experiment was performed at the General Dental Clinic, the Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University Medical College between January 2004 and June 2005.PARTICIPANTS AND MATERIALS: A total of 60 patients (60 teeth) that suffered from deep caries or pulp exposure, could return visit on time, and agreed to sign informed consents were selected for this study. These patients comprised of 28 males and 32 females, aged 9-40 years. Diagnosis criteria: Teeth with food impaction pain and/or caloric stimulation pain which can relieve after stimulation removal; in addition, with no spontaneous pain, radiating pain, and hypnalgia. Self-solidifying hydroxyapatite/2.5% norvancomycin composite were prepared in the Department of Dental Material, Shanghai Second Hospital. Self-hardening calcium hydroxide was provided by Dentsply Company, USA.METHODS: All 60 patients were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, with 30 patients (30 teeth) per group. Self-solidifying hydroxyapatite/2.5% norvancomycin composite and self-hardening calcium hydroxide were applied as pulp capping agents in the experimental and control groups, respectively. Pulpal tissue reactions were assessed after 8 weeks. Teeth with normal response were restored permanently, and the others were given root canal treatment.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Pulpal tissue reaction of patients.RESULTS: In the experimental group, one case showed vague pain after 1-week pulp capping and received root canal therapy, with success rate of 97%. In the control group, two cases presented with vague pain after 3-day and 1-week pulp capping, respectively, and also received root canal therapy, with success rate of 93%.CONCLUSION: Self-solidifying hydroxyapatite/norvancomycin composite acquires a high success rate of pulp capping, with curative effects similar to calcium hydroxide, it is a good pulp capping agent for vital pulp preservation.

The O152 antigens of Escherichia coli contains a Glc-β-1,3-GlcNAc linkage within the repeating unit. The wfgD gene in E. coli O152 O antigen gene cluster had been demonstrated utilizing NMR technique to encode a glucosyltransferase which is responsible for the synthesis of Glc-β-1,3-GlcNAc linkage. In this study, a synthetic substrate analog of the natural acceptor substrate undecaprenol-pyrophosphate-lipid [GlcNAc-α-PO_3-PO_3-(CH_2)_(11))-O-phenyl]) was used as an acceptor and UDP-Glc as a donor substrate, and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry(ESI-MS-MS) was used for the detailed structural characte-)rization) of the enzyme product. A systematic study was conducted on product to allow rationalization of the fragmentation) processes. The major fragments observed in the ESI-MS-MS spectra result from cleavage of glycosidic) bond and diphosphate moiety. The fragment originating from the nonreducing end of the product yields information on sequence). Cross-ring cleavages, which are very informative of the linkages of the monosaccharide residues constituting) the product, and "internal" cleavage ions which are derived from elimination of substituents from around) the pyranose ring, were also observed. This extensive fragmentation was shown that the expected Glc-β-1,3-GlcNAc linkage in the product, confirming that wfgD is in the form of UDP-Glc: GlcNAc-pyrophosphate-lipid β-1,3-glucosyltransferase.)

BACKGROUND:Rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels as a kind of adult stem cels with strong proliferation and multilineage differentiation potential exhibit a tremendous application potential in tissue engineering and biological therapy.
OBJECTIVE:To in vitro culture, proliferate and identify rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels and to observe cel biological characteristics.
MEHTODS:Bone marrow of rabbits was extracted under sterile conditions to separate bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels using the whole bone marrow adherence method and Percol density gradient centrifugation method. Afterwards, the cels were purified and proliferated using differential adherence method. Morphology and growth pattern of cels were observed under microscope, and expression of cel surface antigen markers was detected by flow cytometry.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels presented with short adherent time and fast growth. After passage and purification, impurities cel counts were decreased. Primary cels presented with triangular, fusiform and spindly shapes. Passage 5 cels with single shape showed the typical polar swirling growth, and could not express CD34 and CD45, but expressed CD29 and CD44. These findings indicate that the cels cultured using the whole bone marrow adherence method and Percol density gradient centrifugation method possess stem cel characteristics in morphology, surface markers and multilineage differentiation, which have been identified as bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels by flow cytometry.

Objective This study was to investigate the value of CT guided 125iodine implantation combining transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) to prevent digestive tract bleeding in patients with portal vein tumor thrombus in primary hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Forty patients with portal vein tumor thrombus which were diagnosed to have primary hepatocellular carcinomas by diagnostic criteria of Chinese Anti-Cancer Association were collected prospectively. They were divided into the treatment group and the control group, with 20 patients in each group. The treatment group was treated by TACE for hepatic tumor and 125iodine seed implantation for portal vein tumor thrombus, while the control group was treated by TACE for hepatic tumor and only given β-blockers medicines after treatment. Intraoperative and postoperative surgery-related complications were observed. Three months after surgery, enhanced abdominal CT scanning was performed to evaluate treatment effects which were divided into complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and progressive disease (PD) and stable of disease (SD), and the local tumor control rates were calculated. The bleeding rates and mortality after 3 months, 6 months, 12 months were recorded. Treatment effects of the two groups were compared with continuously correction Chi-square test, bleeding rates were compared with Fisher test, and survival rates were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier survival curve and compared with Log-rank test. Results Overall the 40 patients were treated successfully without serious surgery-related complications. In the treatment group, there were 8 patients with PR, 6 with SD and 6 with PD, and the local control rates were 40% (8/20). In the control group, there were 1 patient with PR, 6 patients with SD and 13 with PD. The difference of the local control rates was statistically significant (χ2=5.161, P=0.023).The bleeding rates at 3, 6 and 12 months were 2, 2 and 3 cases in the treatment group, for control group they were 2, 6 and 10 cases respectively. There was no statistical difference between the 3 months and 6 months bleeding rates (P values were 1.000 and 0.235), but for 12 months bleeding rates, the difference was statistically significant (P=0.041).The 1 year cumulative survival rates of the treatment group and control group were 70% (14/20) and 40% (8/20), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.675, P=0.031). Conclusion The treatment of 125iodine implantation combining transcatheter arterial chemoembolization in patients with portal vein tumor thrombus in primary hepatocellular carcinoma can reduce variceal bleeding rate and improve survival rate.
