With the rapid development and wide application of nano-techonology,the development of spine tissue engineering materials has been ushered into a brand field.Because of its unique effects of promoting cell adhesion,proliferation and function,nano-meterial will play more and more important role in the research on spine cord injury repair.

A great progress has been achieved in research on repair of nerve functional recovery following spinal cord injury because of the development of nerve tissue engineering.As an important part of nerve tissue engineering,cell scaffold is divided into natural biomaterials,synthetic materials and composite materials.Besides,nanotechnology has been applied to study scaffolds.However,there are many problems in the application of cell scaffold and further study is needed.With the continued development of biotechnique and cross-correlated technique,the cell transplantation scaffold will make more effect on repair of spinal cord injury.

[Objective]To discuss incidence of nerve root stretch injury and threshold value of traction injury in lumbar interbody fusion from posterior rout approach. [Method]Totally patients were treated by lumbar interbody fusion performed with posterior approach using the safe nerve root retractor,the force of dragging nerve root and the retracting time were showed on the display device,while the latency and amplitude of the DSEP wave were measured with Keypoint to monitor the status of the neural function.JOA scores were followed up 10 days,1 month,3 months and 12 months after operation respectively.[Result]Nineteen cases occurred latency prolongation and wave amplitude digression during the operation,when the tensile strength to nerve root was(4.1? 0.45) N and accumulating strength was(42.89?2.96) N*min.The tensile force of aggravation groups exceed stable and improvement groups obviously,incidence of FBSS was higher than the other two groups.[Conclusion]Stretch injury of nerve root during operation is the main cause of earlier period FBSS after interbody fusion.Master single tensile force less than(4.1? 0.45) N or accumulating strength less than(42.89?2.96) N*min is presumed safety.

[Objective]To evaluate the incidence of postoperative residual numbness and the factors that influenced numbness in lumbar canal stenosis(LCS).[Method]Eighty patients with LCS including 24 males and 32 females,who were 27～78 years of age with an average age of 61.3,were operated by posterior decompression,and followed 10 days,1 month,3 months,1 year and 2 years after operation.All patients were examined by neurological findings and residual symptoms.[Result]In LCS,there were 82.1% of patients who complained numbness preoperativety.The incidence of residual numbness was 43.6%,39.1%,36.6%,35.3% and 35.7% after 10 days,1 month,3 months,12 months and 24 months,respectively.The factors that influenced residual numbness were related to stenosis types;JOA score before operation and the type of spinal canal stenosis were independent of age and nerve root diameter.[Conclusion]The lower limbs numbness recovered within 1 month postoperatlvely.The incidence of postoperative residual numbness was 35.3% and 35.7% in LCS after 1 year and 2 years.It is speculated that the potential of recovery of neural tissue is important for lower limbs residual numbness.

BACKGROUND:The effects of artificial joint replacement, osteotomy and reconstruction in the treatment of Crown Ⅳ-type congenital dislocation of hip in adult are not very satisfied. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of artificial total hip arthroplasty and hip-self procedure in the treatment of Crown Ⅳ-type congenital dislocation of hip in adult patients. METHODS:Twenty-three adult patients with Crown Ⅳ-type congenital dislocation of hip were treated with artificial total hip arthroplasty and hip-self procedure. There were 2 males and 21 females with an average age of (24.26±3.56) years ranging 20 to 35 years. The effect was evaluated according to the Harrris evaluation standard, and the statistical analysis was performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al of the patients were fol owed-up for 12-60 months, averaged of (26.60±13.16) months. Statistical comparison with the SPSS 19.0 system showed there was significant difference of the Harrris scores between preoperation and postoperation period (P<0.05). The artificial total hip arthroplasty and hip-self procedure can be used to reconstruct the normal function of hip joint, relieve pain and increase the joint stability, which is considered as the best method for the treatment of Crown Ⅳ-type congenital dislocation of hip in adult.

BACKGROUND:Recently, periprosthetic femoral fractures have been a common complication after total hip replacement. Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures commonly received internal fixation due to stable femoral prosthesis and less bone defects.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of the application of Synthes cable system in the treatment of Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures after total hip replacement.
METHODS:From May 2009 to October 2012, 18 patients with Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures were treated with Synthes cable system in the Department of Orthopedics, Nantong First People’s Hospital. There were 8 males and 10 females with an average age of (62.67±8.67) years ranging 45 to 80 years. They received a further consultation at 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment. The function of hip joint was evaluated by Harrris evaluation standard:ful marks, 100 points, ≥ 90 points, excellent;80-89 points, better;70-79 points, good;<70 points, poor.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al 18 patients were fol owed up for 6 to 43 months. Mean healing period was (19.06±4.04) weeks. Harris score was (22.3±3.6) points before treatment in 18 cases. Harris score was higher significantly at 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment compared with that before treatment (P<0.01), and the recovery of hip function was good. Results indicated that Synthes cable system could help to restore the normal anatomic structure of femur in the greatest extent, showing simple operation, little injury, high stability and high safety. It is an ideal method for treating Vancouver type B1 periprosthetic femoral fractures.

BACKGROUND:Kinesin II family member 3A (KIF3A), as an important member of the kinesin-2 family, not only holds some general characters of kinesin including the regulation of intracel ular transport and mediation of microtubule movement, but also possesses its own specific features.
OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress of the function of KIF3A recently.
METHODS:A computer-based online research for relative literatures published from January 1996 to July 2016 was performed in PubMed and CJFD databases using the English retrieval words of“KIF3A;kinesin;molecular motor”and Chinese keywords of“kinesin;microtubule;function;molecular motor;spinal cord injury”, respectively. A total of 92 articles were retrieved, and 62 eligible articles were included according to the inclusion criteria.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:KIF3A is involved in new bone formation regulation, in the control of nephron number, cell survival and gene expression, in sperm formation and in the inhibition of prostate cancer and glioblastoma process:In the meanwhile, whether KIF3A is involved in spinal nerve injuries is discussed. All provide valuable new information and new ideas for further in-depth study on the KIF3A.

Objective To research whether the inhibitory oligonucleotides could improve the immune status of the BXSB mice. The purpose was to provide a valuable direction for treating systemic lupus erythematosus. Methods 3-month-old BXSB lupus mice were divided into three groups (including inhibitory oligonucleotides group, saline group and blank control group). The 24 hours urine proteins were determined before treatment. After treatment,the urine protein, anti-dsDNA, peripheral blood lymphocytes apoptosis and immune complex in renal glomeruli were measured. Results Before treatment,the urine proteins had no statistical differences among the three groups ( P > 0.05 ).After treatment,the urine protein, anti-dsDNA levels in inhibitory oligonucleotides group were significantly lower than that of control group(P < 0.01 ). Apoptosis of peripheral blood lymphocytes in inhibitory oligonucleotides group was significantly higher than that of control group( P < 0.05 ) ,immune complex in renal glomeruli in inhibitory oligonucleotides group was significantly lower than that of the other groups ( P < 0.05 ). Compared with saline group, inhibitory oligonucleotides had prolonged life period of BXSB mice ( P < 0.01 ). Conclusion The inhibitory oligonucleotides could improve immune status of BXSB, and could put off the disease progression.

Background and purpose:RASSF10 acts as a kind of tumor suppressor in various tumor tissues, but researches in cardiac adenocarcinoma has not been reported. This study aimed to detect the methylation status and expression ofRas-association domain family 10 (RASSF10) in gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA), and explore its role in occurrence and development of GCA.Methods:Methylation speciifc polymerase chain reaction (MSP), reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry method were respectively used to detect methylation status, mRNA expression and protein expression ofRASSF10 in 81 GCA tissues and corresponding normal tissues.Results:The promoter methylation frequency ofRASSF10 in GCA tissues (64.20%, 52/81) was signiifcantly higher than that in corresponding normal tissues (20.99%, 17/81,P<0.05), and was closely correlated with TNM stages, differential degree and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). RASSF10 mRNA expression in GCA tissues (0.57±0.05) was significantly lower than that in corresponding normal tissues (0.78±0.02,P<0.05), and was closely correlated with TNM stages and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Protein expression of RASSF10 in GCA tissues (31.10%, 26/81) was signiifcantly lower than that in corresponding normal tissues (71.60%, 58/81,P<0.05), and was closely correlated with TNM stages, differential degree and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). The promoter methylation frequency ofRASSF10 in GCA tissues was inversely related to its protein expression.Conclusion:Inactivation of RASSF10 caused by aberrantmethylation in the promoter region may be closely correlated with the GCA tumorgenesis.
