Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(27):5033-5040
BACKGROUND: At present, the clinical application of amplified neural stem cells in the treatment of nervous system diseases is stil in exploratory stage. OBJECTIVE: To investigate efficacy and safety of neural stem cel transplantation for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. METHODS: The embryonic brain tissues aged 12 weeks were obtained for proliferation in vitro, then the brain tissues (5×106-2×107) were prepared into the 4-6 mL suspension. The suspension was injected into 30 cases of Parkinson’s disease through lumbar puncture and carotid injection, once a week, continuously for 3 weeks. Unified Parkinson’s disease rating scale, Hoehn-Yahr scale and Schwab & England Activities of Daily Living Scale scoring were performed prior to and after transplantation. Blood and urine routine, liver function, renal function and adverse reactions were detected and evaluated prior to and after transplantation. RESUTLS AND CONCLUSION: The 12-week-old embryos cultured neural stem cells could be stably amplified in vitro with the capacities of differentiation into neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. The fol ow-up results showed that neural stem cel transplantation could effectively control the pathological process of Parkinson’s disease, restore the damaged brain function, and improve the patient’s neurological function without significant complications. It is feasible and effective to use the in vitro long-term amplified human neural stem cel transplantation in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

3.Advances in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms studies
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2016;39(7):544-547
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is an enzyme that plays a critical role in the folate and homocysteine metabolism.MTHFR mutation leads to decreased 5-methylenetetrahydrofolate synthesis.Consequently, it influences the conversion of homocysteine to methionine causing homocysteine accumulation.Homocysteine has been considered as an independent risk factor for a variety of diseases such as cardiovascular diseases , neurological and psychiatric disorders as well as cancers .The study on the correlation between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms and diseases and the discovery of its clinical value is getting more and more attention.

The growth associated protein(GAP 43) and neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) play an important role both in promoting neurite outgrowth and synaptic plasticity. GAP 43 is a neuron specific phosphoprotein that is highly expressed during the development of the central nervous system, nerve regeneration and the modulation of synaptic function, and it is frequently used as a marker for sprouting. GAP 43 may be involved in G protein interaction, membrane binding, calmodulin binding and protein kinase C phosphorylation. The various interactions, specified by the structural domains, are thought to underlie the role of GAP 43 in synaptic plasticity, participating in membrane extension during neuritogenesis, in neurotransmitter release and long term potentiation. NCAMs involve in the intracellular signaling cascades and stimulate the axonal growth, GAP 43 function is essential for NCAM stimulated neurite outgrowth and that much of this appears because of the phosphorylation of GAP 43 via the FGF receptor dependent stimulation of arachidonic acid. NCAM can accelerate the phosphorylation of GAP 43.
