Objective To clarify the function of LIM and SH3 domain protein-1 (LASP1) and ferritin in rhBMP2-induced osteogenic differentiation of beagle bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs).Methods After BMSCs from 3-18-month-old C57BL/6J mice were cultured adherently for 24 hours,they were subjected to osteogenic differentiation for 7,14 and 21 days in 3 groups.BMP2 (100 μg/L) and osteogenic differentiation medium was added in the experimental group,only osteogenic differentiation medium was added in the control group,and nothing was added in the blank group.Osteoblast differentiation was determined by examining marker genes (Runx2,OSX,OCN and OPN) using qRT-PCR.The protein expression of both LASP1 and ferritin was investigated using western blotting.After LASP1 and ferritin were silenced in the cells in the experimental group after transfection of shRNA to target LASP1(m),rhBMP2-induced osteogenesis was repeated to verify the roles of LASP1 and ferritin in osteoblast differentiation.Results The qRT-PCR showed successful osteoblast differentiation in the experimental group.Western blotting verified significant down-regulation of LASP1 and up-regulation of ferritin in the experimental group.After the LASP1 gene was silenced,the expression levels of osteoblast differentiation marker genes in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group.Conclusions rhBMP2 can induce mouse BMSCs to differentiate into osteoblasts in a significant manner.Combined with our preliminary research,the present study may confirm that LASP1 and ferritin,which play an important role in regulating cytoskeleton activity and iron metabolism,are critical in the osteogenic differentiation of mouse BMSCs induced by rhBMP2.

BACKGROUND: Chitosan has become a research hotspot of cartilage repair materials because of a wide range of biological sources, simple preparation processes and excellent biocompatibility. OBJECTIVE: To review the characteristics of chitosan hydrogels and their application in cartilage repair. METHODS: PubMed and CNKI databases were searched by computer with the keywords of "chitosan; chitosan hydrogel; cartilage repair; tissue engineering" in English and Chinese, respectively. The time range was from January 2000 to March 2018. After initial screening, the retained articles were further analyzed, concluded and summarized. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Chitosan has good biocompatibility, low toxicity, low immunogenicity, and can load multiple growth factors and seed cells with different physical or chemical improvements. Encouraging progress in tissue engineering cartilage repair has been achieved. With the development of technology and the understanding of cartilage and subchondral bone structure, the application range of chitosan biomimetic hydrogel has been broadened. However, the molecular mechanism and degradation process of chitosan in vivo still have a lot of controversies, and further research and exploration are needed.

Objective To explore the clinical technical points of the treatment of soft tissue defect of the foot and ankle with the supercharged peroneal artery perforator propeller flap,and to provide theoretical support by anatomical observation.Methods From January,2010 to February,2018,a total of 10 patients with soft tissue defect of foot and ankle were treated with supercharged peroneal artery perforator propeller flap.Cause of injury:trauma in 7 cases,wound ulcer in 1 case,and poor healing of the calcaneus incision in 2 cases.Defect site:5 cases of heel,2 cases of medial and lateral malleolus,and 3 cases of dorsum and sole.The size of flap ranged from 6.0 cm×3.0 cm to 16.0 cm×5.0 cm.All patients were followed-up at 1,3,6 months after operation,and the function recovery was judged by AOFAS Ankle Hindfood Scale at 3 months post-opertively.From November,2016 to May,2017,the anatomical basis and operative points of the supercharged peroneal artery perforator flap were summarized.Results All the 10 cases of supercharged peroneal artery perforator propeller flap survived.Two of them had local epidermal necrosis at the proximal end of the flap.After 1 to 2 weeks of dressing,they finally healed.The other 8 cases healed well.Anatomical studies showed that different planes of the supercharged peroneal artery perforator propeller flap can only reduce the compression of the double pedicles and reduce the distal necrosis rate of the flap by rotating in different rotation directions.Conclusion The supercharged peroneal artery perforator propeller flap can enhance the blood supply and venous return in the "big paddle" artery of the flap,preventing distal necrosis.

Objective:To study the early predictive values of serum thrombospondin-1(TSP-1)and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) for bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in preterm infants.Methods:From September 2020 to April 2022, preterm infants with gestational age<32 weeks and ≥28 weeks as well as birth weight<1 500 g admitted to neonatal intensive care unit within 2 hours after birth were enrolled in the study.The dynamic changes of serum TSP-1 and TGF-β1 levels in preterm infants were observed on 1st, 7th, 14th, and 28th day after birth.Preterm infants were divided into BPD group and non-BPD group according to the diagnostic criteria of BPD.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve and area under curve(AUC)was used to analyze the predictive value of serum TSP-1 and TGF-β1 for preterm infants with BPD.Results:According to the diagnostic criteria of BPD, 38 cases were in the BPD group and 52 cases in the non-BPD group.There was no significant difference in gestational age, birth weight and gender between the two groups( P>0.05). The levels of TSP-1 and TGF-β1 in the serum of BPD group were gradually increased, which were significantly higher than those of non-BPD group on the 1st, 7th, 14th, and 28th day( P<0.001). ROC results showed that AUC of TSP-1, TGF-β1 and their combination for predicting BPD were 0.889(95% CI 0.819~0.959), 0.826(95% CI 0.743~0.910), and 0.923(95% CI 0.870~0.976), respectively.The sensitivity were 86.80%, 86.70%, 89.50%, and the specificity were 86.50%, 73.10%, 80.80%, respectively.Cutoff values of TSP-1 and TGF-β1 for predicting BPD were 44.50 μg/L and 6.13 μg/L, respectively. Conclusion:Combined detection of serum TSP-1 and TGF-β1 on the first day after birth has an early predictive value for BPD in preterm infants.
