BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s have immunomodulatory properties and have potential applications in immunosuppression. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the isolation and culture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and the immunoregulation of CD8+T lymphocytes. METHODS:Primary bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were isolated from Wistar rats by bone marrow adherence method. The primary cel s were purified by differential adherence and digestion, and col agen type I was added as extracel ular matrix to expand bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s. Passage 2 bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s at densities of 0, 1×103, 1×104 and 1×105/wel were co-cultured with CD8+T lymphocytes, fol owed by phytohemagglutinin stimulation for 68 hours. T lymphocyte aggregation and proliferation were detected by staining with staining with 5,6-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester and MTT, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Different concentrations of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s had an inhibitory effect on T lymphocytes, but this effect was weakest for the cel s at the density of 1×103 per wel and strongest for the cel s at the density of 1×105 per wel . Obvious agglomeration was observed in the same media. The proliferation rates of CD8+T lymphocytes were (44.83±4.92)%, (31.94±6.28)%and (15.77±3.98)%, respectively, after co-culture with 1×103, 1×104, 1×105/wel bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s. There were significant differences between groups (P<0.05). These results showed that primary rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s could be obtained by direct adherence method of the whole bone marrow, and the cel s could be purified by differential adherence combined with digestion and control method. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s could inhibit T lymphocyte proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner.

Objectives To observe the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) treatment of different intensities on learning-memory function and expression of β-amyloid protein 1-40 (Aβ1-40) in hippocampus CA1 region in rats with vascular dementia (VD) and to seek the best intensity of EA treatment.Methods A total of 60 male SD rats (SPF grade) were enrolled.Eight rats were selected as sham operation group with random number table method;others were used to copy the VD model with the modified four-vessel occlusion (4-VO) method.According to the random number table method,the successful model of the rats (n=24) were completely randomly divided into a model group,a 1 am EA group (frequency,2/15 Hz,intensity,1 mA,needle retention time,20 min),and a 3 mA EA group (frequency,2/15 Hz,intensity,3 mA,needle retention time,20 min;n=8 in each group).DU20 (BaiHui) and DU14 (DaZhui) in the EA group were acupunctured once a day for 10 d,and took a rest for 2 d as 1 treatment course.After 2 treatment courses,Morris water maze test was used to detect the ability of learning and memory of rats in each group.Fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression level of Aβ1-40 mRNA.Results The mean escape latencies of the water maze test from 2 to 5 days in the sham operation group,model group,1 mA EA group,and 3 mA EA group were 46.8±1.9,40.6±2.3,24.6±1.5,19.4 ±1.2 s;56.3±3.5,51.2±2.6,45.9±2.1,40.8±1.4 s,52.7±1.5,46.0±2.3,31.3±1.2,27.7±1.6 s;and 50.8±3.9,41.5±2.1,29.0±1.1,25.6±1.3 s,respectively;the first time across the original platform were 23.3±1.6,53.9±1.3,30.2±1.4,and 28.1±0.8 s,respectively;the first across the original platform within 120 s were 9.4±0.9,2.6±0.5,6.4±0.7,and 7.2±0.9,respectively;the expression levels of Aβ 1-40 mRNAs in the CA1 regions were 17.3±1.1,40.7±1.1,24.0±1.7,and 22.4±1.8,respectively.There were significant differences among the groups (the F values were 195.88,861.605,103.876,and 380.609,respectively;all P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the mean escape latencies,the first time across the original platform were reduced significantly.Compared with the model group,the times across the original platform within 120 s were increased significantly.Compared with the model group,the gene expression level of Aβ 1-40 mRNA in the center of CA1 region was decreased significantly,and the 3 mA EA group was significantly superior to that of the 1 mA EA group.The difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05).Conclusion EA may improve the learning and memory ability in VD rats and lower the expression level of Aβ 1-40 mRNA in the CA1 region of hippocampus.Effect of 3 mA EA is better than that of the 1 mA EA.

Objective To evaluate and compare the clinical outcome of coracoclavicular screw and double Endobutton plate in treatment of acromioclavicular dislocation ( Rockwood Ⅲ-Ⅴ ). Methods Twenty-eight patients with Rockwood Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular dislocation were subjected to surgical reconstruction from January 2008 to October 2009. The coracoclavicular screw was performed in 14 patients and the double Endobutton plate in the other 14 patients. Clinical evaluation was performed by using Constant score and subject should value (SSV) in both groups, and the preoperative and postoperative radiographs, curative effects and complications were compared. Results The patients in two groups were followed up for a range of 6-25 months (average 12.6 months) , which showed higher postoperative Constant score and SSV score than preoperation in both groups (P＜0.05). But the postoperative Constant sore and postoperative SSV score in the double Endobutton group were (89.8 ±8.3) points and (85.7 ±7. 3) points respectively, significantly better than (78. 0 ± 10. 3) points and (71. 8 ±9. 7) points respectively in the coracoclavicular screw group ( P ＜ 0.05). The radiologic measurement showed no significant difference in regard of the coracoclavicular distance three months after operation in two groups (P＞0.05). Conclusions The double Endobutton plate can attain significantly superior clinical outcomes for Rockwood Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular dislocation compared with the coracoclavicular screw. The surgical technique of reconstructing the coracoclavicular ligament through anatomical approach will be the future trend in treatment of the acromioclavicular joint dislocation.

Objective To explore the effects of intestinal trefoil factor ( ITF) on gastric mucosal epithelial cell proliferation and its possible molecular mechanism . Methods The cultured GES-1 cells were treated with ITF in the concentration of 100 ng/mL and 500 ng/mL in vitro, and then were observed using microscope for the morphological analysis .The Cell Counting Kit-8 ( CCK-8) was used to detect the proliferation activity of GES-1.The cultured GES-1 cells were treated with 100 ng/mL ITF and the specific inhibitor of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway LY294002 (15μmol/L) in vitro, and then were observed using microscope for the morphological analysis . The proliferation activity of treated GES-1cells was detected using CCK-8 and the expressions of p-Akt and Akt of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were determined by Western blot . Results Compared with the control group , the proliferation activity of GES-1 cells in-creased after being treated with ITF and the higher concentration of ITF induced the higher proliferation activity .LY294002 inhibited the increased proliferation activity of GES-1induced by ITF.The data of Western blot indicated that ITF induced the expression of p -Akt and activated the P3IK/Akt signaling pathway to modulate the proliferation activity of GES -1 cells.However, LY294002 inhibited the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and then decreased the proliferation activity of GES -1 cells. Conclusion ITF could promote the proliferation ac-tivity of GES-1 cells by activating PI3K/Akt signaling pathway .

Objective To investigate the correlation between developmental function and pathological behavior in children with autism. Methods A total of 154 children with autism were tested with Revised Chinese Version Psycho-Educational Profile (C-PEP) during 2011 to 2014. Results The scores of fine movement, hand-eye coordination, and oral language of developmental function were lower in the girls than in the boys (t>2.120, P<0.05). Among the children with autism aged 2-7 years, the developmental function was better in the older group than in the younger group (P<0.05);however, it was not better in the children aged 8-10 years and>10 years than in those aged 6-7 years. There was no difference in the scores of pathological behavior between the girls and the boys (P>0.05). Some pathological behaviors were milder in the older group than in the younger group (P<0.05). The scores ofP(pass) in developmental function were positively correlated with the scores ofA(absence) in pathological behavior (P<0.01), and negatively correlated with the scores ofS(severe) in pathological behavior (P<0.01). The scores ofF(fail) in developmental function were negatively correlated with the scores ofA(absence) in patho-logical behavior (P<0.01), and positively correlated with the scores ofS(severe) in pathological behavior (P<0.01). Conclusion Develop-mental function of children with autism is highly correlated with pathological behavior, and the rehabilitation and education of children with autism aged above 7 years should be concerned.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of enteral nutrition by nasojejunal tube insertion and by percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) in elderly patients.Methods A total of 65 elderly patients with dysphagia recruited at our department from January 2010 to November 2014 were divided into the nasojejunal tube feeding group (35 cases) and the PEG feeding group (30 cases).Differences between these two groups in nutritional indexes,immunological indexes,complications and mortality were analyzed retrospectively.Results Serum total protein,albumin and prealbumin and upper arm circumferences all increased after treatment with nasojejunal tube feeding or percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (P＞0.05).There was overall improvement in nutritional status,as assessed by Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002).Specifically,the before/one month-after-treatment ratio of scores was 3.72±0.91/1.90±0.61 (t=7.24,P＜0.01) for the nasojejunal tube feeding group and 3.52±1.23/2.02±0.53 (t=4.17,P＜0.01) for the PEG feeding group.Compared with NRS2002 scores at one month post-operation,further improvement was achieved at 3 months postoperation both for the nasojejunal tube feeding group (1.89±0.65,t=5.21,P＜0.01) and for the PEG feeding group (1.91±0.62,t=4.40,P＜0.01).There was no difference in the indexes of nutrition,immune status or mortality between the two groups (P＞0.05).Although improvement in CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,IgA,IgG,and IgM was seen in both groups after operation,the differences did not reach statistical significance (P＞0.05).The incidence of aspiration pneumonia was notably lower (P＜0.05) while the incidence of diarrhea was much higher (P＜0.05) in the nasojejunal tube feeding group than in the PEG feeding group at one month and three months.The two groups had similar causes of death and mortality rates.Conclusion Both nasojejunal tube and PEG feeding can improve the nutritional status of elderly patients with dysphagia.However,the choice for the route of nutrition should be individualized.
