Objective To explore the expression profile of Wnt4 in rat kidney during renal development and its effect on renal development. Methods Rats with embryonic age of 18 days (E 18 d) , 20 days (E 20 d) as well as postnatal age of 0 day (P 0 d), 1 day (P 1 d), 3 days (P 3 d), 5 days (P 5 d) and 7 days (P 7 d) were selected. Expression levels of Wnt4 in rat kidney during renal development were quantified by immunohistochemistry and Western blot in all time points. Results Immuno?histochemistry analysis showed that during E 18 d to P 7 d, Wnt4 mainly expressed in proximal tubules, ureteric bud, comma shaped bodies and S shaped bodies of nephrogenic zone;the expression in the distal tubule was weak;the expression in renal corpuscle decreased with time;Western blot analysis showed that the expression of Wnt4 in rat kidney began to decrease from E 18 d and reached bottom at P 1 d then rise again until P 7 d when it dropped again. Conclusion During renal development, Wnt4 proteins were involved in the development of the nephrogenic zone through regulating canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and was involved in extension of proximal tubules by inducing the non canonical Wnt/PCP signaling pathway. Expression of Wnt4 protein in rat kidney was closely related to nephron formation and development of proximal tubules.

BACKGROUND:The key of stem cells for treating nervous tissue injury is the transplantation of stem coils that have regeneration capacity.The structure and function of central nervous system were re-established by multiple action mechanisms.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects and mechanisms of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)locally transplanted into rats with spinal cord injury on neurological recovery.METHODS:BMSCs were separated with density gradient centrifugation and cell attachment.10 mg/L BrdU was used for labeling before cell transplantation.Adult female Wistar rats were used to establish spinal cord injury models using an aneurysm clip,and they were then randomly divided into control group,saline group and transplantation group.In the transplantation group,BMSCs were transplanted into the damaged spinal cord by stereotaxis at day 7 following damage.In the saline group,an equal volume of saline was utilized.In the control group,the rats were left intact.Basso,Beattie and Bresnahan(BBB)locomotor rating scale was used before and at 7,14,30,60 and 90 days following damage.Rats were sacrificed at day 90.BrdU-positive cells,Brdu+neuron specific enolase,Brdu+glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),Brdu+basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF),and Brdu+brain-derived nerve growth factor(BDNF)immunohistochemistry double-staining cells and simple staining positive calls were observed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The recovery of BBB function score was better in the transplantation group than in the control group(P＜0.05).The recovery speed of BBB function score was slower in the saline group than in the control group at 30 days following damage(P＜0.05).No significant difference was determined at day 90 compared with the control group(P＞0.05).BrdU-positive cells and double-staining cells of immunohistochemistry could be found at the center of damage site and 1 cm from caudal end to damaged site in rats of the transplantation group.The number of NSE,GFAP,bFGF and BDNF simple staining cells was significantly greater in the transplantation group than in the control and saline groups(P＜0.05).Results indicated that BMSC transplantation can improve the recovery of nervous function of rats with spinal cord injury.Its mechanism may be correlated with the differentiation of transplanted cells into neuron-like and glial cell-like cells,secretion or promoting secretion of neurotrophic factors in host.

Objective To explore the relationship between therapeutic dosage of ultrasound ablation in treatment of uterine fibroids and imaging characteristics of bloody supply of uterine fibroids by color Doppler ultrasound imaging. Methods One hundred and forty-two patients with 168 fibroids were treated by ultrasound ablation. Before treatment, bloody supply of fibroids were classified into grade 0 -4 by ultrasonography. Three patients lost follow-up with contrast MRI exam within 1 month after treatment, so 165 fibroids were enrolled in this study. Bloody supplies were 9 fibroids in grade 0, 34 fibroids in grade 1, 35 fibroids in grade 2, 55 fibroids in grade 3 and 32 fibroids in grade 4. After 1 month treatment, the treated area without blood supply and ratio of ablation were measured by contrast MRI to evaluate the efficacy of thermal ablation and compare status of blood supple based different therapeutic dosage. According to International Reditherapy for Society ( SIR ) standard, adverse effect and score of pain were evaluated. Results ( 1) Ratio of ablation based; ratios of ablation were 79% in grade 0, 89% in grade 1, 92% in grade 2, 86% in grade 3, 71% in grade 4. It reached statistical difference when blood supply of grade 0 compared with those of grade 2 and 3 (P ＜ 0. 05 ) and blood supply of grade 4 compared with those of grade 1, 2, 3 ( P ＜ 0. 05). (2) Factor of energy efficiency:factor of energy efficiency were 13.19 J/mm3 in degree 0, 9. 54 J/mm3 in degree 1, 12. 91 J/mm3 in degree 2, 17. 83 J/mm3 in degree 3 and 28. 10 J/mm in degree 4. Factor of energy of ablation in degree 4 was significantly higher than those in degree 1, 2 and 3 blood supply (P ＜ 0. 05). It exhibit the positive relationship between blood supply and factor of energy of ablation ( r = 0. 354 ,P ＜ 0. 01). ( 3 ) Score of pain and adverse effect: nearly 85% ( 120/142 ) patients could tolerate this treatment very well. Those scores of pain were in range of 0 to 4. All patients did not extend their hospitalization and C to F of SIR standard was not recorded. Conclusion blood supply of myoma measured by ultrasound could predict dosage of ultrasound ablation, it could help select indicated well patients.

Objectives To investigate the relationship between the degeneration of lumbar multifidus mus-cles and facet joint osteoarthritis(FJOA)by MRI. Methods This retrospective study included 248 patients with low back and leg pain,aged from 55 to 70.MRI was used to measure TCSA,FCSA,fCSA and FI% of the L4~5and L5~S1segments on the both sides of their multifidus muscle in the cross section in T2weighted image.All the cases were divided into three grades:grade 0~1,grade 2 and grade 3 according to their FJOA grades. The relationship between the FJOA grades at the same level and TCSA,FCSA and FI% of both sides was analyzed retrospectively. Results There were significant differences of the FI% of the multifidus muscle between both sides of the two seg-ments(P < 0.05);The TCSA,FCSA and fCSA of the left and right multifidus muscle all showed an increasing trend from L4~5to L5~S1segment and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);the FI% of two sides of multifidus muscle was negatively correlated with the right FJOA grade at L5~S1segment(P<0.05).There was a re-lationship between females and right FJOA grade at L5~S1segment(all P < 0.05). Whereas,no significant differ-ence was found in other parameters(all P>0.05).Conclusions There is no relationship between the cross-sec-tional area of the multifidus muscle and the FJOA grade. The higher FI% degree of multifidus muscle in the L5~S1 segment is accompanied with a lower grade of FJOA.The degeneration of multifidus muscle occurs earlier than the degeneration of articular process joints,so the earlier exercise of lumbar muscle is recommended.
