Objective:This study was to investigate the interrelations between the acetylase activity and specialization rate of the differentiation of MSCs to the cardiac cells when histon deacetylase enzyme inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA)interferes in the cardiac cells. Method: MSCs of ratswere separated,The already labeled MSCs and cardiac muscle cells were put respectively into the MSCs interfered by different concentrations of TSA cultivated in mix tune with cardiac muscles. Adding TSA into the conventional culture of MSCs for the negative group.One week later,with the help of immunofluorescence,detecting the expression of the function proteinum,ie. myosin heavy chain (MHC)and Connexin43 (Cx43),of the cardiac muscle constitution in MSCs was detected. Results: ① There appeared sample differentiation of the cardiac muscle cells after the coculture of the MSCs and the pulsating cardiac muscle cells for one week,and the expression of the function proteinum of the cardiac muscle constitution;② In the positive group,in the mix culture of the cardiac muscle cells and the MSCs in which the TSA interfered for 48 h,there appeard sample differentiation of the cardiac muscle cells;③ In the negative group,part of the MSCs could express the function proteinum of the cardiac muscle constitution. During the 7 days of coculture, with the induction of TSA,MSCs was double-labeled by Brdu-DAPI. The differentiation rate of the fluorescent manifestation of the MHC and Cx43 in the MSCs was notably different expression that in the positive group,Conclusion: MSCs in which HDAC,the enzyme inhibitor,interferes are in the microenvironment of the cardiac muscle cells. HDAC,the enzyme inhibitor,functions as a promotion factor in the specialization of MSCs,suggesting the interrelation between the acetylase activity and the cell specialization rates.

BACKGROUND:Piperine in models of pancreatitis, gout, middle cerebral artery infarction has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immune regulatory effects, but its effects on periodontitis model are not clear.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the protective effect of piperine on bone absorption and degradation of col agen in experimental rat models of periodontitis.
METHODS:Rat models of periodontitis were established by ligaturing the dental cervix of rat mandibular first molar with 3-0 silk. On day 1 before model establishment, rats were intragastrical y administered piperine 50 and 100 mg/kg. There were healthy control group and model group. Related detection was performed 8 weeks after model establishment.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Results of quantitative CT analysis:compared with the healthy control group, the distance from the first molar enamelo-cemental junction to the alveolar ridge crest was significantly lower in the model group (P<0.05). The degree of alveolar damage was significantly improved in the 50 and 100 mg/kg piperine groups compared with the model group (P<0.05). (2) Related factor protein expression:compared with the model group, matrix metal oproteinase-8,-13 and interleukin-1βprotein expression was significantly decreased in the 100 mg/kg piperine group (P<0.05);matrix metal oproteinase-8 protein expression was significantly decreased in the 50 mg/kg piperine group (P<0.05). (3) Col agen fiber morphology:compared with the model group, col agen fibers arranged orderly and col agen fiber area significantly increased in the 50 and 100 mg/kg piperine groups (P<0.05). (4) Results confirmed that piperine could reduce the alveolar bone resorption, reduce the degradation of col agen fibers and protect the periodontal tissues in models of periodontitis. Its mechanism is associated with the inhibition of matrix metal oproteinase-8,-13 and interleukin-1βprotein expression.

Objective To investigate the improvement role of low-dose aspirin combined with metoprolol in high blood coagulation and cardiac function of elderly patients with heart failure. Methods 112 cases of elderly patients with heart failure who were treated in our hospital from February 2014 to February 2016 were selected, these patients were randomly divided into conventional therapy group and combined treatment group (conventional therapy combined with low-dose aspirin beauty metoprolol treatment group) two groups, 56 cases in each group. Conventional therapy group was given routine treatment, combined treatment group wered treated on the basis of conventional therapy combined with metoprolol in the treatment of low-dose of aspirin. The plasma P-selectin, VWF, DD, BNP levels, HR, LVEDV, LVEF and clinical efficacy of the two groups were statistically analyzed. Results The P-selectin, VWF, DD, BNP levels of the combined treatment group were significantly lower than those in the conventional treatment group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), the total treatment effective rate 89.3% (50/56) was significantly higher than the conventional therapy group 78.6% (44/56), the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups in HR, LVEDV, and LVEF. Conclusion Low-dose aspirin combined with metoprolol can improve the high blood coagulation and cardiac function of elderly patients with heart failure.

A series of activities on popularization of health sciences including nutrition and food safety, healthy lifestyle promotion, prevention and control of major infectious diseases, and decipher-ing the mystery of life have been carried out by Center for Laboratory teaching and management of Chongqing Medical University, using quality resources of teaching and scientific research, in order to explore the effective mode and long lasting mechanisms of work in popularization of sciences in higher education institutions. A combined method of quantification and qualification has been applied to sci-entifically evaluate the effect of the activities, and the results indicated that huge potentials and adva-ntages of higher education institutions existed in the field of popularization of sciences through coherent management system of the institution, as well as arousing the enthusiasm of teachers and students to take part in the activities.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression of chemokine stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) receptor CXCR4 in human gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs) and the migration potential of GMSCs stimulated with SDF-1.

METHODSHuman GMSCs were isolated by single-cell cloning method. Their cell surface markers were characterized by flow cytometry, and the rate of colony formation was evaluated. Differentiation assay was used to detect the differentiation potential of GMSCs. The expression of chemokine SDF-l receptor CXCR4 in GMSCs was detected by immunocytochemical staining. The chemotactic effect of SDF-1 on GMSCs was detected using a 24-multiwell Transwell cell culture chamber. The number of net migrated cells was counted in different microscope fields.

RESULTSHuman GMSCs possessed high self-renewal potential and formed single-cell colonies cultured in vitro. GMSCs expressed mesenchymal stem cells-associated markers CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105, and CD166, and the expression of hemopoietic stem cell surface markers CD14, CD34, and CD45 was negative. GMSCs differentiated into osteoblasts and adipocytes under defined culture conditions. The colony forming unit-fibroblastic for GMSCs was 21.4%/±2.8%. Immunocytochemical staining demonstrated that GMSCs expressed chemokine SDF-1 receptor CXCR4. The number of GMSCs migrating at concentrations of 100 ng.mL-1 and 200 ng.mL-1 of SDF-l in the Transwell cell culture chamber was significantly higher than that of the negative control (189.3±4.4, 164.6±4.9 cells/field vs. 47.8±2.5 cells/field, P<0.01). Treatment with the CXCR4 neutralizing antibody, an antagonist for CXCR4, significantly reduced the migratory effect compared with the negative controls (29.0±2.4 cells/field vs. 47.8±2.5 cells/field, P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONHuman GMSCs express chemokine SDF-l receptor CXCR4. SDF-1 may participate in regulating chemotaxis of human GMSCs. Results suggest that the migration induced by SDF-1 is mediated by CXCR4.
