Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2020;25(3):426-430
BACKGROUND: The treatment of large-segment bone defect has always been a major problem in clinical orthopedics. The treatment of large-segment bone defect is characterized by long treatment time, high difficulty and high cost. Therefore, it is of great clinical value and significance to study the treatment of large-segment bone defect. OBJECTIVE: To review the current methods of repairing large-segment bone defect and their advantages and disadvantages. METHODS: PubMed, CNKI and Wanfang databases before April 2020 were retrieved by the first author with the keywords of “bone defect, bone repair, bone graft, intramedullary nail technology, Masquelet, bone transport, vascularized bone graft, bone tissue engineering” in English and Chinese, respectively. Forty eligible articles were included to systematically summarize the repair methods and their advantages and disadvantages in the treatment of large-segment bone defect. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Currently, the scope of large bone defects is not clearly defined. In clinical practice, long bone defects with poor healing ability and difficult healing by traditional fixation and autogenous bone graft can be regarded as large-segment bone defect according to experience. (2) There are many repair methods, and different methods can play their unique advantages in the treatment process. However, the disadvantages and related complications of different methods should be paid attention to when choosing the treatment method, so as to improve the bone healing rate. (3) It is still necessary to improve and standardize the existing treatment technology of large-segment bone defect to obtain a more satisfactory treatment effect.

BACKGROUND:Staphylococcal infections and its biofilm formation can occur when orthopedic implants or wound is healing, and are regulated by bacterial population sensing mechanism. RNAIII inhibiting peptide intervenes the quorum-sensing system of staphylococcal and blocks the signal transduction among staphylococcal cells, and inhibits staphylococcal biofilm formation, and then prevents staphylococcal infections.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the influence of RNAIII inhibiting peptide on the adhesion of staphylococcus epidermis to the Hela cells.
METHODS:The Hela cells were cultured in vitro. There were four groups in this study. In the blank group, saline with dimethyl sulfoxide was added in each wel . In the RNAIII inhibiting peptide group, dimethyl sulfoxide solution containing RNAIII inhibiting peptide was added. In the levofloxacin group, levofloxacin was added. In the combination group, the dose was in accordance with above methods. Using intergroup control method, the adhesion of staphylococcus epidermis to the Hela cells was compared under the effects of saline, RNAIII inhibiting peptide and levofloxacin and their combination.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the blank group, abundant bacterial adhered to Hela cells. The number of adhered bacteria was significantly lower in each medicine group than in the blank group (P<0.001). The spot count was significantly lower in the levofloxacin group than in the RNAIII inhibiting peptide group (P<0.05). In the combination group, the number of bacteria adhered to Hela cells was decreased (P<0.01). Results verified that RNAIII inhibiting peptide effectively suppressed the adhesion of staphylococcus epidermis to the host cells, and showed synergistic effects on antibiotics.

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a large group of common hereditary eye diseases with highlyheterogeneous genetic background. Over forty genes with diverse functionalities are associated with RP and they include a set of ubiquitously expressed genes. These include five genes involved in the precursor messenger RNA( premRNA) splicing. Recent progress in disease gene identification for RP has established the involvement of pre-mRNA splicing as one important mechanism in the disease etiology and has shed light on the splicing process itself, a fundamental biological process. To this date, studies in this field have been focused on two major issues. First, how do the mutations of the adRP associated splicing factors (adRP-SF) affect the splicing function? Second, how do the mutations in these ubiquitously expressed genes lead to specific retinopathy? The two topics fit with the two continuous important steps of the disease pathogenesis. Recently, researchers have made a dramatic progress in the first topic. The identification of the SNRNP200 gene,the fifth adRP-SF and its relevant functional study has shown significance to the progress in the study of RP. Numerous investigations are also being carried out in addressing the second issue.Generation of a variety of models led to a better description of the pathological process of the disease. However, in respect to the key pathogenic mechanism,researchers are still puzzled with a number of confusing questions. In this commentary,the results from the latest investigations were summarized, and in particular,the difficulties in studying the molecular mechanism by which the pre-mRNA splicing deficiency causes RP were detailed.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the histocompatibility of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)/RNA Ⅲ inhibiting peptide (PLGNRIP) sustained release microspheres.METHODS: The crude peptide comprising N to C-terminals was synthesized using Fmoc method. The crude synthetic RNAⅢ peptide was purified by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography, followed by component harvesting according to ultraviolet absorption peak, and freeze-drying. PLGNRIP sustained release microspheres with a diameter of 50-70 pm were prepared using liquid-phase multiple emulsion method. The histocompatibility of PLGNRIP sustained release microscopes were preliminarily evaluated through the use of acute general toxicity test, MTT cytotoxicity test, intramuscular implantation test, sensitivity test, and pyrogen test.RESULTS: Acute general toxicity test results showed that all included animals survived and presented with no toxicosis reaction and obviously changed body mass. MTT cytotoxicity test results revealed that the average relative growth rate of cells from two eluents was over 85%, with cytotoxicity grade 1, which indicated no cytotoxicity. Intramuscular implantation tests showed that at 4 weeks after implantation of RiP powder or PLGNRIP microscopes, no obviously congested, degenerated, or necrotic tissue was observed. All RIP powder and a part PLGNRIP microscopes were degraded. Fibroblasts accounted for a large proportion in all cells. NO inflammatory cell infiltration, involving neutrophits and multinucleated giant celts, was observed. Sensitivity test rasults displayed that the average primary irritation index was 0.38, 0.33, arid 0.31 in the eluent stock solution, 2% dinitoflruorobenzene, and physiological saline-administerd groups, respectively. Pyrogen test results showed that fervescence of each rabbit in the experiment was under 0.5 ℃ and the sum of fervescence was under 1.3 ℃ .This is in coincidence with evaluation criteria of pyrogen test.CONCLUSION: PLGNRIP sustained release microspheras exhibit good histocompatibility.
