Microglia is the principal immune effector cell in brain. It plays some important roles in support, nutrition, protection, and repair in the physiological activities of neuron. Microglia can be quickly activated, which may proliferate after cerebral ischemia, and promote phagocytosis of macrophage. It exerts dual effects by producing neurotoxic molecules and neurotrophic factors. Therefore, to study the relationship between microglia and cerebral ischemia, give full play to its protective functions and reduce its damage will help to improve the therapeutic effects of cerebral ischemic injury.

BACKGROUND:Valgus-varus constrained polyethylene insert is selected in strict accordance with the principle of“to obtain reliable stability using minimum restriction”. The stability of the prosthesis is elevated, but the restriction is not increased.
OBJECTIVE:To retrospectively analyze the application experience of constrained polyethylene insert in valgus and varus instability of primary total knee arthroplasty for older patients and to summarize the indications and clinical effects of this kind of implements.
METHODS:From March 2010 to March 2012, a total of 70 patients combined valgus and varus malfomation who accepted primary total knee arthroplasty were enrol ed in this study, including 56 varus patients (averagely 15°-30°) and 14 valgus patients (averagely 10°-20°). Constrained polyethylene insert was performed in 23 patients (25 knees) who stil had remaining unilateral valgus or varus<6 mm (18 patients were varus instability and 7 patients were valgus instability) when finished operation of standard osteotomy and soft tissue balancing. The bone cement knee prostheses in 23 cases were purchased from Smith&Nephew. The stem implant was not used in al cases. Cement or autografts were used in 11 valgus knees to fil the bone defects.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Patients were fol owed up for 2 years on average (18-42 mouths). The knee pain symptoms of al cases disappeared. The joint stability was obviously improved. The lower limb power lines were correct. The Knee Society Score scores were improved from an average of 39.4 points preoperation to an average of 88.5 points postoperation. Al cases did not need the protection of knee braces. The maximum degree of flexion was 110°(96°-130°). The satisfaction degree of 36-Item Short Form Health Survey was 98%. No dislocation or infection happened. Results indicated that constrained polyethylene insert could be applied in the cases of less than 6 mm valgus and varus instability when finished operation of standard osteotomy and soft tissue balancing in total knee arthroplasty for older patients. This kind of implements can preserve bone mass, simplify operational process and have good clinical outcome in a short period.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have confirmed that in the animal models of articular cartilage defects and osteoarthritis, the chondrocytes can overexpress the matrix metal oproteinases. Various abnormal stimuli are likely to break the balance between matrix metal oproteinase and tissue inhibitor of metal oproteinase, thus leading to degeneration of extracel ular matrix of articular cartilage, as wel as the decline and offset of cartilage chondrocytes. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of cyclic tensile strain on the expression of matrix metal oproteinases during the repairing process of rabbit articular cartilage defects. METHODS: The animal models of articular cartilage defects were established, and chondrocytes were separated for culture at 10 weeks after operation. The chondrocytes on the non-surgical side were considered as the normal group, and the chondrocytes on the surgical side were randomly divided into high cyclic tensile strain group, low cyclic tensile strains group and control group, and the load amplitude was sin10%. Then 0.1, 1.0 and 0 Hz cyclic tensile strains were loaded respectively. The expressions of matrix metal oproteinases 2, 3, 9 and 13 in each group were detected with reverse transcription-PCR at 24, 48 hours, 1, 2 and 4 weeks after loading cyclic tensile strain. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There were significant differences in the expressions of matrix metal oproteinases 2, 3, 9 and 13 at 24 hours after loading cyclic tensile strain between the normal group and the control group (P < 0.05); and there were significant differences in the expressions between the high cyclic tensile strain group and the low cyclic tensile strain group at 1, 2 and 4 weeks after loading cyclic tensile strain (P < 0.05).At the same time, the expressions of matrix metal oproteinases 2, 3, 9 and 13 in the low cyclic tensile strain group were continued to decline, and there were significant differences in the expressions after loading cyclic tensile strain for 24 hours and 4 weeks (P < 0.05). The results indicate that mechanical load can affect the expression of matrix metal oproteinases in the healing process of rabbit articular cartilage defects. In the cel ular and molecular level, the incidence and development of pathological articular cartilage defect and stress should affect each other.
