BACKGROUND:With increasing freeze-drying time,the water content of allogeneic bone reduces along with the bone mechanical strength.The suitable dehydration degree that maintains mechanical strength of allogeneic bone and allows long-term preservation at room temperature remains controversial.OBJECTIVE:To detect the mechanical properties of bovine bone nail following different degrees of dehydration using the three-point bending mechanics tests.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Biomechanical analysis,comparative observation.The experiment was performed at the Mechanical Laboratory of Southern Medical University between May 2007 and May 2008.MATERIALS:Bone nails,50 mm length and 3 mm diameter,made from healthy adult bovine femoral cortical bone were divided into control and freeze-drying groups (8,12,24 hours,respectively) with 20 samples in each group.METHODS:The water content of bone nails with or without freeze-drying was measured by SH10A Moisture Quick Determination Meter.Three-point bending mechanics tests were performed using MTS 858 Mini Bionix.The parameters included load range 0-2000 N,resolution 0.01 N,cross beam replacement resolution 0.001 mm,span 50 mm and loading speed (cross beam replacement speed) 2 mm/min.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Water content,maximal load and elasticity load.RESULTS:The water content of control group was 7%-9%,and following freeze-drying for 8 hours,the water content was 5.5%-6%,which met the standard of freeze-drying bone;Compared with control group,the maximal load and elasticity load reduced respectively 0.004% and 0.000 8% (P＞0.05).Following freeze-drying for 12 and 24 hours,the water content was 3.5%-4% and 1%-1.5%;the maximal load reduced 21% and 37% and the elasticity load reduced 22.5% and 39% compared with control group (P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Freeze-drying for 8 hours is the best time of dehydration.The mechanical load and elastic modulus reduce with increasing freeze-drying time.

Objective To explore the feasibility of mouse muscle-derived cells with adenovirus-mediated expression of BMP-2 in the treatment of mouse tibia bone defect via collagen sponge as scaffold. Methods Mouse adenovirus BMP-2 plasmids were prepared and identified by PCR.The adherent cells of muscle-derived stem cells cultured in vitro were passaged,cells of the third generation were selected,and recombinant Ad-BMP-2 plasmids were expressed and incubated in mouse myoblasts.The number of BMP-2 positive cells was measured using indirect immunofluorescence method,and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) method was adopted to determine the cell activity in each group.The mouse models of proximal tibial bone defect were established(n=80) and were divided into Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,Ad-LacZ transfection group,blank group and Ad-BMP-2 implantation group.The histological and radiological changes were observed 3 weeks after operation. Results It was revealed by indirect immunofluorescence that BMP-2 positive cells were frequently found in Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,while none were observed in Ad-LacZ transfection group and blank group.The ALP activity was higher in Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,while that was extremely low in Ad-LacZ transfection group and blank group.There was most typical imaging of repair and healing of bone defect in Ad-BMP-2 transfection group,followed by Ad-BMP-2 implantation group,while there was no typical imaging in Ad-LacZ transfection group and blank group. Conclusion The constructed Ad-BMP-2 plasmids can effectively transfect mouse muscle-derived cells,and the transfected cells can continuously express effective amount of BMP-2.The mouse muscle-derived cells with adenovirus-mediated expression of BMP-2 play a definite role in the treatment of bone defect,which provides an effective method and material for clinical application.

Object: To investigate the protective effect of Qizhi hypoglycemic tablets on eye diseases in strepto- zotocin-induced diabetic rats and explore its possible mechanism. Methods: Streptozotocin was used to prepare diabetic model in rats. The diabetic model rats were given Qizhi hypoglycemic tablets(780 mg/kg),metformin hydrochloride tab- lets(200 mg/kg)or glibenclamide tablets(1.5 mg/kg)via intragastric administration once a day for three months,and the dynamic changes in eye diseases were investigated. The examined index included blood glucose level,lens opacity, serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase(AST)and alanine aminotransferase(ALT),retina expression of collagen, matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2)and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1). Network pharmacology was used to analyze protective mechanism. Results: Compared with the normal group,the model rats showed significant hyperglycemia(P<0.01),polydipsia,polyphagia and polyuria(P<0.01)as well as the decreased body mass(P<0.01), increased serum ALT and AST level(P<0.01),decreased the retinal Collagenexpression(P<0.01),decreased: TIMP-1(P<0.01)and increased lens opacity(P<0.01). Compared with the model group,metformin hydrochloride tab- lets and glibenclamide tablets could improve hyperglycemia(P<0.01),polyphagy,polyuria and emaciation(P<0.01), but had no significant effect on the degree of retinal turbidity(P>0.05). Compared with the model group,Qizhi hypogly- cemic tablets also had hypoglycemic effect(P<0.05),which could improve hyperglycemia,polyuria and emaciation (P<0.01),significantly reduce the degree of retinal turbidity(P<0.01)and up-regulate the expression of retinal Colla- genand TIMP-1(P<0.01). According to the network pharmacology analysis,Qizhi hypoglycemic tablets could regu- late the cell proliferation and apoptosis via VEGF and MAPK signals. Conclusion: Qizhi hypoglycemic tablets could im- prove the ophthalmic disease in diabetic rats,which might be a promising medicine for the treatment of diabetic ophthal- mic disease.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a serious threat for human health, the incidence of HCC in China accounts for more than 50% worldwide. There is an urgent need to develop novel anticancer agents for the treatment of HCC patients. Here we characterized the inhibitory effect and the molecular mechanism of protopine on HCC cancer cells. The results of a CCK-8 assay indicated that protopine displays anticancer activities on HCC cells. Flow cytometry and JC-1 staining confirmed that treatment with protopine decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential and induced apoptosis in HCC cells. Western blot analysis showed that protopine was able to increase protein expression in the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway; the level of cytochrome C, apoptotic protease activating factor-1 (Apaf-1), Bax, cleaved-poly ADP-ribose polymerase (cleaved-PARP), cleaved-caspase-3, and cleaved-caspase-9 were increased while the expression of Bcl-2 was suppressed significantly. An in vivo study revealed that protopine significantly suppressed the growth of tumors in nude mice bearing HepG2 cells. Administration of protopine intraperitoneally at a concentration of 50 mg·kg^-1 inhibited tumor growth by 72.46%. Animal experiments were carried out according to the Regulation of the Animal Ethics Committee of Southwest Medical University. This study provides preliminary evidence that there is potential to develop protopine as a lead compound for the treatment of HCC.
