Objective To compare and analyze the biochemical detection results of separated se- ra with the separation gel coagulation promoting tubes and the drying tubes. Methods Venous blood samples was collected from identical blood donors and randomly poured into the separation gel vacuum collective tubes (test group) and traditional drying collective tubes (control group). After serum sepa- ration, timely biochemical detection was performed. The detection results were compared and ana- lyzed. The samples of test group were detected once again after storage for 24 h at 4 ℃. The results were compared with those of timely biochemical detection with separation gel separated sera. Results The results from the test group and those from the control group had no significant difference. The most results from the sera storaging for 24 h at 4 ℃ and those from the fresh serum of the test group had good correspondence. Only a few of biochemical indicators had significant difference. Conclusion The biochemical detection with sera obtained by separation gel tubes and those collected by drying tubes has good correspondence. The separation gel tubes provide the clinical laboratory optimal blood samples and more accurate results.

Objective To explore the electrophysiological examination results and risk factors of type 2 diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Methods 337 patients with type 2 diabetes from August 2014 to December 2016 in the first people's hospital in Shizuishan city were divided into DPN group (n=218) and NPDN group(n=119) according to the results of NCV and SSR examinations. The general information and laboratory biochemical indicators in the two groups were compared. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of DPN. Results The diagnosis rate of DPN detected by NCV combined with SSR was higher than that of NCV or SSR alone(P<0.05);There were significant differences in age,duration of diabetes,history of hypertension,systolic blood pressure,2h FBG,HbA1c,FINS,2 h INS,FC-P, 2h FC-P,ACR between the DPN group and NPDN group(P<0.05);Logistic multivariable analysis showed that age, duration of diabetes, 2h FBG, HbA1c, ACR were independent risk factors for DPN. Conclusion It is beneficial to increase the diagnosis rate of DPN by NCV combined with SSR. There is a higher incidence rate of DPN type 2 diabetes patients with older grade, longer duration of diabetes, higher 2h FBG, HbA1c and ACR.

Objective To investigate the effect of geraniin on expression of Wnt3a protein and mRNA in bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC) from osteoporotic rats. Methods The model of osteoporosis (OP) was duplicated by ovariectomy in rats. BMSCs were isolated and cultured. BMSCs from shamed rats were routinly cultured and taken as normal control, and BMSCs from OP rats were divided into model group, 1μmol/L simvastatin positive group, and geraniin group (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100 μmol/L), respectively. The methods of realtime-PCR and western blot were used to assay the protein and mRNA expression of wnt3a, respectively.Results As compared with normal control group, the protein and mRNA expression of wnt3a in model group were significantly suppressed;Compared with model group, 1 μmol/L simvastatin, and 0.1, 1, 10 and 100 μmol/L geraniin significantly increased the expression of wnt3a protein and mRNA. Conclusion It is suggested that geraniin activates wnt/β-catenin pathway though increasing the expression of signaling protein wnt 3a in BMSCs from OP rats. It would be beneficial to osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and osteogenesis.

BACKGROUND:Cytoskeleton plays an important role in the transduction of mechanical signal, and intermittent tensile stress can promote osteogenic differentiation. However, there is no relevant study about the change of cytoskeleton in osteoporosis rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells under intermittent tensile stress. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of intermittent tensile stress on the cytoskeleton of osteoporosis rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells during osteogenic differentiation. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were obtained from osteoporosis rats and cultured in vitro. The 5%, 10%and 15%tensile stress were strained on the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells through FX-4000T Flexcell. No stress was in the control group. Osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was observed through alkaline phosphatase staining, while the change of cytoskeleton was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy with figures col ected for analysis by Image-ProPlus 6.0 software. The area of cells, ratio of length to width and integrated fluorescence intensity of cytoskeleton protein F-actin were measured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Under tensile stress, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from osteoporosis rats arranged in the direction vertical to mechanical stimulation. cells under different tensile stress differentiated towards osteoblasts. The result of alkaline phosphatase staining showed the most significant difference in 10%group, and quite an amount of cells lining lost succession in the 15%group. Under stress, the F-actin filaments were rearranged in paral el accordingly, which showed a reconstruction of cytoskeleton. Imaging analysis indicated that the area of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was decreased in 10%and 15%groups (P<0.05) with the increased ratio of length to width (P<0.05), and expression of F-actin increased in5%, 10%, 15%groups (P<0.05) after tensile stress. Under mechanical stimulation, the cytoskeleton of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from osteoporosis rats is shown to have corresponding alterations during osteogenic differentiation.
