BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that Wnt signaling pathways play an important role in the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.
OBJECTIVE:To review the mechanism and regulation of the Wnt signaling pathways, as wel as Wnt signaling pathway effects on osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.
METHODS:A computer-based search of PuMed database and CNKI database from September 1998 to March 2013 was performed to search related articles. The key words of“Wnt, mesenchymal stem cells, Wnt signaling pathways, osteoblastic differentiation, canonical wnt signaling pathway, non-canonical signaling pathway”in English or Chinese were used to search the articles in the title and the abstract. A total of 31 articles were included to review.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Wnt signaling pathways play a critical role in the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Canonical Wnt signaling pathway, non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway, and their mutli-factors were involved in regulating the proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. The osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells can be promoted effectively via specific induction of Wnt signaling pathways. Wnt11, FZD6, sFRP2, sFRP3 and Ror2 expressions increase, while Wnt9a and FZD7 decreases during the regulation. However, the relations of factors in Wnt signaling pathways and how to use the mechanism of Wnt signaling for promoting mesenchymal stem cells faster, more accurate differentiation need further studies.

Objective To investigate the clinical value and relating problems in treating complex fractures of proximal humerus by using replacement of humeral head prosthesis. Methods There were 23 cases (10 males and 13 females, age range 43-76 years, mean 58.6 years) with complex fractures of proximal humerus. According to Neer classification, 4 cases had three-part fracture, 17 four-part fracture, 2 cleavage fracture of humeral head, 18 fresh fracture (within 2 weeks after injury) and 5 old fracture, which were all treated with replacement of humeral head prosthesis. Results Follow-up study for a mean period of 15.6 months was conducted in all the cases. No flexible prosthesis, prosthesis dislocation, infection, nerve damage or periprosthesis fractures occurred. According to scoring system modification for hemiarthroplasty (SSMH) of UCLA (Los.Angeles, California, USA), the average score was 26.3. Score was above 27 (excellent) in 3 cases and 24-27 (good) in 18 with an excellence rate of 91.3%, score was 18-24 (moderate) in 2 but no one had score less than 18. Average score was 9.5 in pain, 8.6 in function and 8.2 in muscle power and motion in 23 cases. Conclusions Replacement of humeral head prosthesis is a preferable method for treating the complex fractures of proximal humerus, with significant effect in relieving the pain in the shoulder joint posterior to trauma. It is key to a satisfactory curative effect to correctly select the indication, clearly master the local anatomy, grasp the operation technique and give early and reasonable postoperative rehabilitation treatment.

BACKGROUND: The skill to culture osteoblasts primarily has been well developed. However, trypsinase can affect membrane protein of osteoblasts if the time of digestion is long. Therefore, it is of great significance to select an ideal method to avoid the damage from trypsinase to cells as possible when culturing osteoblasts.OBJECTIVE: To explore a novel method to isolate and culture SD rat osteoblasts in vitro, and identify the functions of the cells.DESIGN: Observational study.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University.MATERIALS: This experiment was carried out in the Department of Orthopaedics, First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University from March to May in 2007. Eight SPF 24-hour old SD rats were used in the experiment. The rats, irrespective of gender, were provided by the Experimental Animal Center of Nanfang Medical University. The experimental animals were disposed according to ethical criteria. The main reagents were detailed as follows: collagenase Ⅱ (Sigma Company);trypsin (Sigma Company); alkaline phosphatase (ALP) kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Biological Products Company); SABC-1021(Wuhan Boster Biotechnology Company).METHODS: 24-hour old SD rats were chosen for experiment. The newly born SD rats were sacrificed by anesthesia and the cranial bones of the rats were obtained cleanly, erased completely of the periosteum and cut to blocks of I mm3. The cranial bones were digested by 0.25 % trypsinase for 20 minutes, then by 0. 1% type Ⅱ collagenase for 60 minutes. The digestive time of trypsinase was controlled in the process of digestion to avoid to harm the cells. The liquid was gathered and centrifuged. The cells were cultured in culture flask and were purified by many times adhered.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphology observations under the inverted phase contrast microscope, transmission electron microscope, and scanning electron microscope were performed. The phenotype, calcium tuberculation and the expression of alkaline phosphatase were studied with alizarin red staining and modified Gomori Ca-Co assays respectively.The cells were also evaluated with collage Ⅰ immunohistochemical staining.RESULTS: The cultured cells had active proliferation ability. Cells showed multi-angle or fusiform shape. Nucleus was immature and organell was plentiful. Therefore, they had typical morphological characters of osteoblasts. Moreover, they showed the osteoblastic phenotypes such as their synthesis of alkaline phosphatase, collage Ⅰ and formation of calcium tuberculations.CONCLUSION: The cells cultured by our modified enzymatic digestion method had typical morphological and biological characteristics of osteoblasts.

AIM:To conduct the relevance analysis of serum Dickkopf-1 (Dkk-1) and bone mineral density (BMD) in the different ages of female populations.METHODS: The women volunteers (n=100, 20~80 years old) were selected and divided into young group (20~39 years old), middle age group (40~59 years old) and elderly group (60~80 years old).The serum levels of Dkk-1 in the 3 groups of volunteers were detected by ELISA.In the middle age group, 25 people of 45~55 years old were selected and divided into postmenopausal group and premenopausal group to de-tect the serum level of Dkk-1 in the 2 groups of volunteers by ELISA.The BMD was measured by the method of dual energy X-ray absorptiometry.The differences of Dkk-1 expression levels among different ages of female populations, and the rele-vance with BMD were compared.RESULTS:With the increase in age, the serum Dkk-1 expression level increased ( P<0.05), and BMD were reduced (P<0.05).The blood level of Dkk-1 and BMD negatively correlated (P<0.05) in the 3 groups of volunteers.The serum levels of Dkk-1 and BMD had stronger negative correlation in postmenopausal women group than that in premenopausal women group.CONCLUSION:With the increase in age, the expression level of serum Dkk-1 increases and the BMD level decreases, which contribute to a risk of osteoporosis.In the same age range, the postmeno-pausal women express higher level of Dkk-1, and the decreased BMD is more obvious, which contribute to a greater risk of osteoporosis.The increased level of Dkk-1 also inhibits bone formation and promotes bone resorption.It may become a new target for preventing and treating osteoporosis.
