Aim To investigate the effects of predni-sone on trabecular microstructure and biomechanical properties of femur in a rat model of type II collagen-induced arthritis (CIA ) using micro-CT and biome-chanics.Methods Forty 8-week-old male Lewis rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:control (CON ) group with 6 rats,and the remaining 34 rats were used to establish the CIA model.3 weeks after immunization screening CIA rats were randomly divided into CIA group,CIA plus prednisone 4.5 mg · kg-1 · d -1 group and CIA plus prednisone 9 mg · kg-1 · d -1 group.Rats in CON group were given vehicle as well as in CIA group.Rats in the other two groups were treated with prednisone at 4.5 mg·kg-1 ·d -1 or 9 mg ·kg-1 · d -1 .After 90 days treatment,all rats were euthanized,and the left femur was collected for biome-chanics,micro-CT scanning and three-dimensional re-construction.Results Micro-CT data showed that tra-becular thickness,trabecular number,bone volume/total volume,bone mineral density in CIA group were significantly lower than those in CON group.While tra-becular separation,structure model index were signifi-cantly higher than those in CON group.Compared with CON group,biomechanical properties (elastic load, maximum load,break load and stiffness)were signifi-cantly decreased in CIA group.Compared with CIA group,bone volume/total volume and trabecular num-ber were increased,while trabecular separation was significantly decreased in two prednisone groups.Com-pared with CIA group,there was no significant change in biomechanical properties in two prednisone groups. Conclusions Treatment with prednisone for 3 months can ameliorate the damage of trabecular microstructure of the femur in CIA rats,but it has no effect on biome-chanical properties and bone mineral density.

Aim To investigate the skeletal effects of ginseng flower bud(GF)on osteopenia induced by D-galactose using histomorphometry and biomechanical properties.Methods Fifty three-month-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups.Rats in NS group(NS)were treated with NS(5 mL·kg-1·d-1)by subcutaneous injection and daily oral gavage with vehicle as control.Rats in the other four groups were given D-galactose at the dose of 100 mg·kg-1·d-1 by subcutaneous injection.Solvent control was performed between NS and DG: gastric irrigation with distilled water of 10 mL·kg-1·d-1.Other groups were: CP was gastric irrigated with integrated medicine(stanozolol 0.54 mg·kg-1·d-1+piracetam 432 mg·kg-1·d-1),GF(L)with ginseng flower bud of 0.486 g·kg-1·d-1 and GF(H)with ginseng flower bud of 2.43 g·kg-1·d-1 for 14 weeks.The longitudinal proximal tibial metaphyseal(PTM),the fifth lumbar vertebral body(LVB)and tibial shaft(Tx)sections were performed undecalcifiedly and used for bone histomorphometric analysis.858 Mini Bionix materials testing system was used to analyze the biomechanic properties of right femur via three-point bending test.The left femur was dried and assimilated,whose bone calcium(Ca),phosphate(P)content and bone hydroxyproline content were tested.Results Compared with D-glagatose group,in PTM of D-galactose treated rats,the％Tb.Ar was increased both in GF(L)and GF(H)treated groups.While the Tb.Sp was decreased.％Oc.S.Pm and Oc.N/mm decreased in GF(L),and those in GF(H)were decreased as well.In Tx,％Ct.Ar was raised,while％Ma.Ar was decreased in GF(L)and GF(H).The elastic load of femur was increased.Conclusions Compared with DG group,there are significant differences in bone histomorphometry of Tx and PTM in all doses of GF,but no significant changes are detected in hydroxyproline,Ca,and P content of femur.

Objective:To establish an experimental model of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)in rats,and explore whether polyadenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase-1(PARP-1)inhibitors regulate Sirtuin 1(SIRT1)and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ co-activator 1α(PGC-1α)to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in COPD rats,and explore the possibility of SIRT1-PGC-1α axis as a new target of PARP-1 inhibitor.Methods:Twelve of 48 SD rats were randomly selected as healthy group,and the remaining rats were used to construct experimental models of COPD.Rats that were successfully modeled were randomly divided into model group,PARP-1 inhibitor treatment group and PARP-1 inhibitor+PGC-1α inhibitor group.HE staining was used to observe pathological changes of lung tissue,ELISA was used to detect levels of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD)in rats lung tissue,fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect expression levels of SIRT1 and PGC-1α mRNA of rats in each group,Western blot was used to detect expressions of SIRT1 and PGC-1α proteins.Results:Lung tissue structure of rats in healthy group was complete,compared with healthy group,lung tissue of model group suffered structural damage,with a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated,contents of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 in alveolar lavage fluid were significantly increased,con-tent of MDA in serum was significantly increased,while content of SOD was significantly reduced,and expressions of SIRT1,PGC-1α mRNA and protein were significantly reduced;compared with model group,lung tissue structure of rats in PARP-1 inhibitor treatment group was recovered,and inflammatory cells were reduced,contents of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 were significantly reduced,content of MDA in serum was significantly reduced,while content of SOD was significantly increased,and expressions of SIRT1,PGC-1α mRNA and protein were significantly increased;compared with PARP-1 inhibitor treatment group,the number of inflammatory cells in PARP-1 inhibitor+PGC-1α inhibitor group was increased,contents of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 were significantly increased,content of MDA in serum was significantly increased,while content of SOD was significantly reduced,expressions of SIRT1,PGC-1α mRNA and protein were significantly reduced.Conclusion:PARP-1 inhibitors can alleviate inflammation and oxidative stress by activating SIRT1-PGC-1α axis,thereby effectively alleviating COPD.

Objective In order to understand the chondrogenesis differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells in either hydrogel or pellet culture,we applied the two methods and reveal the possible mechanism and for further investigation.Methods In C3H10T1/2 chondrogenic differentiation,we apply extracellular matrix hydrogel mixed the cell suspensions of freshly prepared (including scaling chondroitin sulfate,sodium hyaluronate synthesis and cross-linking agent) co-culture system and high cell density pellet formed by centrifugation.Chondrogenic differentiation of C3H10T1/2 was induced by treatment with TGF-β3 (10 ng/ml),dexamethasone (100 nmol/L),ascorbic acid (50 ug/ml),1 ∶ 100 dilution ITS+Premix and high glucose-DMEM medium with 0.2 volume fraction fetal bovine serum.And high glucose-DMEM medium with 0.2 volume fraction fetal bovine serum is for control group.Histochemistry staining was utilized to identify extracellular proteoglycan and real-time PCR was performed to assess gene expression of SOX9,collagen Ⅱa1/Ⅹa1 and aggrecan for the 1st,2nd and 3rd week respectively.Results In the hydrogel model for 3 weeks chondrogenic differentiation,the expression of master transcription factor SOX9 was upregulated in both culture models.While the marker genes of collagen Ⅱa1 and collagen Ⅹa1 were all promoted in hydrogel culture,the aggrecan gene expression was peaked in pellet culture.In addition,immunocytochemistry analysis of the hydrogel and pellet for 3 week illustrated the expression of extracellular matrix and more obviously in the hydrogel model.Conclusion In compared with pellet culture,the MSCs in the hydrogel were more likely promoted chondrogenesis leading to the eventual expression of marker genes.And the hydrogel would be applied in regeneration of cartilage injury.

Gallbladder cancer constitutes the most prevalent malignant tumor of the biliary tract. It exhibits clinical characteristics such as challenging diagnosis in early stages, aggressive invasiveness, and poor prognosis. Studies have discovered that the occurrence, development, and metastasis of malignant tumors are closely associated with the inflammatory response, and the level of systemic inflammation within the body can be reflected by peripheral blood inflammatory indicators. This review delineates the research progress on the correlation between peripheral blood inflammatory markers and the prognosis of gallbladder cancer, with the intention of providing references for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis evaluation of gallbladder cancer.
