Objective To investigate the effect of methylprednisolone on the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in M?ller cells of rats' retinae injured by laser. Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into two groups and inflicted with laser photocoagulation.The rats in treatment group were given methylprednisolone by intraperitoneal injection with a dose of 30 mg/kg for 3 days.At the 3rd,7th,14th,and 28th day after photocoagulation respectively, the eyes were enucleated,fixed and cut into sections.Immunohistochemical examination was used to detect the expression of PCNA and GFAP. Results After photocoagulation the M?ller cells expressed PCNA both in the treatment and control group,and the expression of PCNA decreased sharply after 3 days. The expression of PCNA in treatment group was less than that in control group. After photocoagulation the M?ller cells also expressed GFAP and the expression of GFAP lasted for at least 28 days ,and the expression of GFAP expression in the treatment group was less than that in the control group. Conclusion Methylprednisolone can reduce the expression of GFAP and PCNA in M?ller cells of rats' retinae injured by laser.

Objective To evaluate the role of phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced release of inflammatory factors in rat microglias.Methods The pri mary cultured microglial cells were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =24 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),LPS group,vehicle group,mismatch small interfering RNA (siRNA) group and PDE4B-siRNA group.The cells were incubated for 48 h in C and LPS groups.The cells were transfected with lipofectaminTM RNAiMAX 1 μl for 48 h in vehicle group.In mismatch siRNA and PDE4B-siRNA groups,mismatch siRNA 2 μl and PDE4B-siRNA 2 μl were added to 100μl serum-free culture medium (final concentration of siRNA 20 nmol/L),respectively,lipofectaminTM RNAiMAX 1 μl was added simultaneously and the cells were then transfected for 48 h.The expression of PDE4B protein and mRNA was determined by Western blot and real-time PCR,respectively.The cells were cultured for 24 h in serum-free culture medium containing LPS 100 ng/ml in LPS,vehicle,mismatch siRNA and PDF4B-siRNA groups.Then the release of TNF-α and IL-1β was measured by ELISA and the expression of extracellular signalregulated protein kinase (ERK) and phosphorylated ERK (p-ERK) was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with C group,the expression of PDE4B protein and mRNA was significantly down-regulated in group PDE4BsiRNA (P ＜ 0.05),no significant changes were found in LPS,vehicle and mismatch siRNA groups (P ＞ 0.05),and the release of TNF-α and IU1β was increased and the expression of p-ERK was up-regulated in the other four groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with LPS group,the release of TNF-α and IL-1β was decreased and the expression of p-ERK was down-regulated in PDE4B-siRNA group,and no significant changes were found in vehicle and mismatch siRNA groups (P ＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference in ERK expression between the five groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion PDF4B can promote LPS-induced release of inflammatory factors in rat microglias and activation of ERK is involved in the mechanism.

Objective To investigate the risk factors related to the survival time of anti-protrusion cage in acetabular revision.Methods Data of 40 patients who had received acetabular revision using antiprotrusion cages between January 2002 and June 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 16 males and 24 females,aged from 22 to 77 years (average,60.3 years).All patients were followed up for 12 to 82 months (average,39.2 months).According to the AAOS classification,there were 29 cases of type C and 11 cases of type D； while according to the Paprosky classification,there were 29 cases of type ⅢA and 11 cases of type Ⅲ B.The multiple regression analysis was utilized to investigate the relationships between different factors and anti-protrusion cage failure.The corresponding factors included gender,age,bone loss classification,superior or lateral migration of acetabular center of rotation,abduction angle,fixation manners (simple flange fixation or flange fixation plus transacetabular screw fixation),bone grafting techniques and cup type.Results At final follow-up,the average Harris score was 74.5±15.4.Two patients received rerevision due to prosthetic loosening.Obvious radiological loosening of prosthesis combined with pain was found in 2 cases.The statistical analysis indicated that superior migration of acetabular center of rotation,abduction angle and fixation manners were correlated with cup failure,especially when the superior migration was more than 8.5 mm or the abduction angle was larger than 53.5°.Flange fixation plus transacetabular screw fixation could reduce risk of cup failure.Conclusion There is a higher cup failure risk in acetabular revision using an anti-protrusion cage for patients with serious bone defect.However,implanting cup at the level of the true acetabulum as far as possible,decreasing abduction angle properly and using flange fixation plus transacetabular screw fixation can reduce cup failure risk.

Objective To investigate the effects of different culture conditions on the isolation and expansion of stem cells from second-trimester amniotic fluids.Methods Amniotic fluids were obtained from 15 pregnant women undergone amniocenteses for medical indications between 16-24 gestation weeks by transabdominal amniocenteses from September 2007 to June 2008.Amniotic fluids(10-20 ml)samples were collected and each WaS cultured under different conditions or groups.(1)Low-glucose DMEM(LD) medium supplemented with 10%of fetal bovine serum(group of 10% FBS);(2)LD medium with 20%of FBS(group of 20%FBS);(3)LD medium with 15%of FBS and 4 ng/ml of basic fibroblast growth factor (group of bFGF);(4)LD medium with 10%of FBS as well ag the culture plate coated with gelatin(group of gelatin).The effects of different conditions were evaluated by comparing the number of primary colonies,the cell morphology and the ability of expansion.The isolated stem cells were identified by flow cytometry,RT-PCR and differentiation ability to edipocyte.Resuits (1)The success rates of primary culture of the group of 10%FBS,20%FBS,bFGF and gelatin were 60%,73%,73%and 60% respectively(P>0.05).The numbers of colonies were 0.9±0.5,2.6±1.5,2.9±1.5,1.1±0.8(P<0.01 when group of 10%FBS and gelatin compared with group of 20%FBS and bFGF);among the primary colonies,fibroblast-like colonies accounted for 46%,49%,64%.44%respectively(P>0.05).(2)The second passage cells obtained from all of these four groups could difierentiate into adipocyte after induction.(3)In the group of bFGF,stem cells were isolated from 5 samples and expanded to nearly 107 cells after 5 passages(P<0.01 compared with other groups).(4)Karyotype were normal in all samples.(5)Stem cells from bFGF group showed positive expression of SSEA-4.Oct-4 and Nanog gene detected by flow cytometry and RT-PCR.Conclusion Stem cells can be isolated from second-trimester amniotic fluids;moderate serum concentration and supplementation of bFGF can improve the efficiency of isolation and expansion of amniotic fluid of stem cells.
