BACKGROUND:Alveolar distraction osteogenesis is an important method for treating alveolar bone atrophy, the osteogenesis process and biomechanics play a crucial role in the fol owing implantation and repair. At present, no related experimental studies are found.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the biomechanical and histological characteristics of alveolar distraction osteogenesis in a canine model.
METHODS:Twelve adult mongrel canines received premolars extraction and alveoloplasty in mandible to establish an atrophy alveolar model. After 3 months, a segmental alveolar osteotomy was performed in the randomly selected unilateral atrophy alveolar and two intra-osseous distractors were placed. After a 7-days latency period, the alveolar ridge was augmented at a rate of 1.0 mm/d for 5 days. After a consolidation of 1, 2, and 3 months, the canines were sacrificed and the specimens of the distracted alveolar bone were harvested for clinical, radiographic, histological and biomechanical analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The alveolar distractors obtained good healing with surrounding tissue. The atrophy alveolar bones were augmented for (4.80±0.50) mm and (5.12±0.47) mm by clinical and radiographic findings immediately after distraction, respectively. The bone trabeculae in the distracted chamber matured from 1 to 3 months of consolidation by histological analysis. The shearing force of alveolar distraction chamber increased from 1 to 3 months. After 3 months’ consolidation, the shearing force of distracted chamber was comparable to host bone. The histological and biomechanical property of distracted alveolar chamber is comparable to host bone after 3 months’ consolidation.

Objective To explore the correlation between mutations in the promoter region of TBX1 gene and conotruncal heart defects. Methods A total of 621 children with conotruncal heart defects were recruited. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe ampliifcation (MLPA) was used to detect the copy numbers of chromosomal region 22 q 11 . 2 . Children with 22 q 11 . 2 deletion were excluded. Polymerase chain reaction ampliifcation (PCR) and gene sequencing were applied to analyze promoter region of TBX 1 (-2000 ..+1 ) in 605 children with conotruncal heart defects without 22 q 11 . 2 deletion and 588 healthy children. Bioinformatics software was used to predict and analyze the function of the variable loci. Results There were mutations in the promoter region of TBX 1 gene in children with conotruncal heart defects, including 3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) sites and 7 rare loci. The incidence of mutation was 1 . 7%. The analysis of 7 rare loci by AliBaba 2 . 1 to showed that 3 of them may inlfuence the combination of trans-acting factors and cis-acting elements of the promoter of TBX 1 gene. Conclusion The mutation in the TBX 1 promoter region may be related to the occurrence of conotruncal heart defects.

BACKGROUND: Neural stem cell transplantation is an emerging therapeutic option in the recovery of neural lesions and neurodegenerative diseases. Neural stem cell culture and differentiation lay a foundation for the further study. OBJECTIVE: To improve the techniques for the isolation, cultivation, differentiation and identification of neural stem cells, and to explore the biological characteristics of cells. METHODS: The neural stem cells from C57BL/6 fetal rats were isolated and cultured in vitro using neurophere culture method followed by morphological and ultrastucture examination. The growth curve and cell cycle of passage 3 cells were drawn and analyzed. Nestin expression was tested by immunofluorescence. Neural stem cells induced in 1% and 10% fetal bovine serum were identified using anti-GFAP, anti-βⅢ-tubulin and anti-MBP by immunofluorescence. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The neurospheres exhibited strong cell proliferation ability. Under transmission electron microscope, there was a high nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio in the neural stem cells, indicating a low differentiation degree. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed that neural stem cells were positive for Nestin. The induced cells were positive for GFAP, βⅢ-tubulin, and MBP, indicating these cells were induced to differentiate into astrocytes, neurons and oligodendrocytes, and there were more neurons in 1% fetal bovine serum than those in 10% fetal bovine serum. In conclusion, we could successfully isolate neural stem cells in C57BL/6 mice, and low concentration of fetal bovine serum contributes to more neurons differentiated from neural stem cells.

BACKGROUND:In recent years, with the in-depth research on thecharacteristics and functions of stem cells,stem cell research has become a hot research targeting thetreatment of a variety of diseases.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the research progress of human amnioticmesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of acute lung injury.METHODS:The PubMed and CNKI databases were searched by computerfor relevant literatures published from January 2000 to January 2017. The key words were mesenchymal stem cells, acute lung injury in Chinese and English,respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:As an important member of adult stem cells, human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells not only have the advantages and characteristics of most other stem cells, but also have unique advantages, such as these cells can be extracted from a vast of sources, require only non-invasive operations, and involve no violation of ethics. Human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells can be driven by inflammation reaction and homing to the damaged tissue, and be activated by inflammatory factors to secrete a variety of cytokines in a paracrine fashion, which inhibit neutrophils, macrophages and other immune cell migration and inhibit dendritic cell maturity, and reduce the proliferation of NK cells, B lymphocytes and T lymphocytes, and up-regulate anti-inflammatory cytokines and down-regulate proinflammatory cytokines, and alleviate alveolar inflammatory injury through anti-oxidation and anti-apoptotic processes. Human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells can also assist in the repair or homing to the damaged tissue to directionally differentiate to replace the apoptotic and necrotic cells. All of these characteristics of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells provide new insight into the treatment of acute lung injury. As acute lung injury is caused by many pathogenic factors and its pathophysiological process is very complicated, human amniotic mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in the treatment of acute lung injury has many issues to be resolved.

Objective The incidence rate of pressure ulcer is high in critical patients and off-loading mattresses and reposi-tioning are known as effective interventions for the prevention of pressure ulcers .However, evidence is lacking for selection of the right type of mattresses and suitable interval of repositioning .This study was to compare the effects of two types of off-loading mattresses with two different repositioning intervals in preventing pressure ulcers in critical patients . Methods According to the design of this ran-domized controlled trial , we made a training plan concerning the participants , methods of intervention and comparison , criteria and methods of observation , and methods of recording , and trained 26 nurses from 7 hospitals .Using non-inferiority design and the method of stratified blocked randomization , we divided 1194 patients with the risk of pressure ulcer into a trial group ( n=596) and a control group ( n=598) , a viscoelastic sponge mattress with every-four-hours repositioning used for the former and an automatic aeration mat-tress with every-two-hours repositioning for the latter , both for 7 successive days .We examined the patients every day , recorded the in-cidence and stages of pressure ulcer , and compared the data obtained between the two groups of patients . Results The total inci-dence rate of pressure ulcer was 1.09%(13/1194), significantly lower in the trial than in the control group (0.34%[2/596] vs 1.84%[11/598], P=0.012). Conclusion A viscoelastic sponge mattress with every-four-hours repositioning is superior to an automatic aeration mattress with every-two-hours repositioning and therefore is preferred to the latter in preventing the incidence of pressure ulcer in critical patients in the ICU .
