Objective To investigate the effect of treatment with transplanted bone marrow mononuclear cells under different transplant paths on neovascularization in ischemic cerebral infarction rats. Methods The MCAO models were established by intraluminal vascular suture method. All the successful models were randomly divided into control group, intravenous transplantation group and subarachnoid transplantation group according to the random number table. The Extraction,isolation and culture of bone marrow mononuclear cells were extracted,i?solated and cultured. The models in the control group were injected 200μl PBS through the femoral vein. The mod?els in the intravenous transplantation group were injected 200μl containing 2×107 bone marrow mononuclear cells through the femoral vein. The models in the subarachnoid transplantation group were injected 200μl containing 2× 107 bone marrow mononuclear cells through the subarachnoid. The VEGF levels in cerebrospinal fluid of rats were detected using quantitative ELISA method. The vascular regenerations in the infarct area were observed by using quantitative immunofluorescence. Results After transplantation of bone marrow mononuclear cells 7 d,14 d and 28 d,the VEGF levels of rat cerebrospinal fluid in subarachnoid transplantation group were (207.4±8.9)pg/ml, (171.2±10.3)pg/ml and (143.8±13.8)pg/ml,respectively,which were all higher than the VEGF levels in intra?venous transplantation group,the differences were all statistically significant (P<0.05). After transplantation 14 d and 28 d,the BrdU?positive cells in subarachnoid transplantation group were ( 2043. 8 ± 514. 2) and ( 1834. 8 ± 307.4) ,respectively,which were higher than the intravenous transplantation group,the differences were all statisti?cally significant (P<0.05). The microvessel counts in subarachnoid transplantation group were (384.6±45.1) and (514.8±51.3),respectively,which were higher than that in the intravenous transplantation group,and the differ?ences were all statistically significant (P<0.05) . Conclusions Bone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation can increase VEGF secretion,and promote angiogenesis infarct. The effect of subarachnoid transplantation is better.

BACKGROUND:Vertebroplasty system has been proved to be effective for osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture (OVCF); however, bone cement leakage-related complications occur frequently. Thereafter, high-viscosity bone cement system with high safety and efficacy is developed, but there is stil a lack of large-scale and high quality research. OBJECTIVE:To systematicaly review the efficacy and safety of high viscosityversus common bone cement systems for OVCF. METHODS: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, CqVip and WanFang databases were searched to colect the literatures about randomized controled trials (RCTs) or clinical controled trials (CCTs) of high viscosityversus common bone cement systems for OVCF published before January 2016. The quality assessment of included literatures and data extraction were performed by two researchers independently according to the Cochrane system. Data analysis was conducted using RevMan 5. 2 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Four RCTs and six CCTs were enroled. The results of Meta-analysis indicate that there were no significant differences in the volume of bone cement [MD=0.17, 95%CI(-0.04, 0.38)], visual analogue scale scores [RCT:MD=-0.30, 95%CI(-0.72, 0.11); CCT:MD=-0.05, 95%CI(-0.43, 0.32)] and incidence of second fractures [OR=1.77, 95%CI(0.24, 12.86)] between two bone cements. However, patients undergoing high viscosity bone cement system have significantly lower Oswestry disability index scores [MD=-2.99, 95%CI(-5.85,-0.13)], greater recovery of Cobb angle [MD=-3.19, 95%CI(-5.27,-1.10)] and lower incidence of cement leakage [OR=0.35, 95%CI(0.24, 0.51)]. High viscosity bone cement system in the treatment of OVCF shows good results at recovery of spinal structure and function and reducing leakage. Due to the limited quantity of included literature sand high heterogeneity, more large scale and high quality RCTs are stil needed for further verification.
