Objective Take frizzled class receptor 4(FZD4) as an example for exploring whether the transmembrane receptor protein is a suitable marker for wound age estimation. Methods A total of 78 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into the control group and the contusion groups of 4h, 8h, 12h, 16h, 20h, 24h, 28h, 32h, 36h, 40h, 44h, and 48h after injury (n=6). Using a drop-ball technique, a contusion was produced in the right lamb of rats. The samples were dissected from injury zones. Then the expression of FZD4 was detected using immunofluorescence, real-time PCR and western blot, respectively. Results FZD4 was located on the membrane of skeletal muscle cells. Compared to the control group, FZD4 mRNA showed a signiifcant increase (over 2-fold) in 8h, 12h, 36h, and 40h after injury by Real-time PCR (P<0.05), and FZD4 protein showed a statistical up-regulation (less than 2-fold) in 8h, 36h, 40h, 44h, and 48h post contusion by western blotting (P<0.05). Conclusion The expression of FZD4 mRNA and protein are both time-dependent during contused skeletal muscle repair. To some degree, FZD4 mRNA was more suitable than corresponding protein for determining wound age.

Aim To investigate the role of COX-2 in BMP9 induced osteogenic differentiation,and the pos-sible mechanism underlying this function of COX-2. Methods We introduced real-time PCR, Western blot, and immunocytochemical staing to detect the effect of BMP9 on COX-2 expression.We employed chemiluminescence technique to assay ALP activities, RT-PCR to detect the expression of Smad6 and Smad7 , and Western blot to measure the expression of Runx2, Dlx-5,total Smad1/5/8,and phosphorylated Smad1/5/8.Finally,BMPR-Smad luciferase reporter assay was applied to measure the activation of BMPs/Smads signaling.Results BMP9 could induce the expression of COX-2 in C3H10T1/2 cells.Either inhibiting enzy-matic activity of COX-2 or knockdown of the expression of COX-2 reduced the BMP9 induced ALP activities in C3H10T1/2 cells,and COX-2 knockdown also inhibited the ectopic bone formation induced by BMP9 in C3H10T1/2 cells.Moreover,COX-2 knockdown inhibi-ted BMPR-Smad reporter activities and the phosphoryl-ation of Smad1/5/8,so did the expression of Smad6 and Smad7 .Conclusion COX-2 may play an impor-tant role in BMP9 induced osteogenic differentiation in MSCs by regulating the BMPs/Smads signaling trans-duction.

Objective To investigate the effects of ginkgo flavone on the expression of NF-κB and TLR4 in the liver of mice with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods 120 KM mice were randomly divided into the control group, model group, as well as high, medium and low dosage of ginkgo flavone groups. The animal model of NAFLD in mice was constructed with high fat diet. The pathological changes of liver, liver index , the serum TNF-α, IL-6 , TG , NF-κB and TLR4 in hepatic tissue was observed after 8 weeks of administration. Results Compared with the model group, the level of liver index, serum TG, TNF-α, IL-6 and the expression of NF-κBp65 in the ginkgo flavone groups dramatically decreased 8 weeks after the administration. And the hepatic steatosis was milder. There was no statistical differences in the expression of TLR4 between the ginkgo flavone groups and the control group (P > 0.05). Conclusions These results suggested the closely relationship between TLR4/NF-κB inflammatory pathway and NAFLD. Ginkgo flavone had the therapeutical effects on NAFLD by anti-inflammatory and lipid-lowering action, but no effect was observed on the expression of TLR4 in hepatic tissue.
