BACKGROUND:It wil provide a new insight into the future application of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels in the treatment of spinal cord injury and tissue engineering by studying the effect of activation of Wnt signaling pathway in the neuronal differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels.
OBJECTIVE: To detect the expression of related genes by gene chip technology during the neuronal differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels.
METHODS:Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were isolated and purified, and passage 5 cels were obtained. GatewayTM technology was used to build lentiviral vectors that was used to transfect Wnt-1 into human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Control, non-transduction and transduction groups were set in this study. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were then induced to differentiate into neurons. Cel morphology was observed under inverted phase contrast microscope. Gene chip was used to detect the regulation changes and the differential expression of related genes in the Wnt signaling pathway.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Under the scanning electron microscope, the transfected cels were found to have the similar morphology of neuron-like cels. Analysis by the gene chip hybridization technique showed that 3 287 genes were up-regulated and 4 215 genes were down-regulated in the signal pathway. In the Wnt signaling pathway, genes related to the nervous system development and differentiation were up- or down-regulated. It is verified that the Wnt signal pathway is activated via Wnt-1 transduction, and the downstream genes appear to have genetic transcription so as to promote the neuronal differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels.

Luminal surface of vascular endothelium is decorated with a variety of polysaccharide-protein complexes,which constitute the glycocalyx.It has been demonstrated that vascular endothelial glycocalyx plays an important role in modulation of selective permeability of vessels,mediation of the blood cell-endothelial cell interactions and the release of nitric oxide induced by fluid shear stress under physiological condition.In inflammation condition,sheding of glycocalyx due to inflammation mediator leads to its functional weakening in vessel protection.At the same time,heparan sulfate as a major constituent of vascular endothelial glycocalyx could be involved in regulating the evolution of inflammation.Heparan sulfate interacts with L-selectin to mediating leukocyte rolling,presents chemokines on luminal surfaces of endothelial cells to mediate leukocyte crawling and firm adhesion,participates in transcytosis of chemokines from tissue to luminal side of endothelial cells during inflammation.Various risk factors of atherosclerosis,as an inflammatory disease,are closely associated with vascular endothelial glycocalyx.This paper is aimed to review the role of vascular endothelial glycocalyx in inflammation and atherosclerosis.

A sensitive, rapid, simple and economical ultra-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectro-metric method (UPLC–MS/MS) was developed and validated for simultaneous determination of imatinib, dasatinib and nilotinib in human plasma using gliquidone as internal standard (IS). Liquid-liquid extraction method with ethyl acetate was used for sample pre-treatment. The separation was performed on an Xtimate Phenyl column using isocratic mobile phase consisting of A (aqueous phase: 0.15% formic acid and 0.05% ammonium acetate)and B(organic phase:acetonitrile)(A:B=40:60,v/v).The flow rate was 0.25 mL/min and the total run time was 6 min. The multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transitions, m/z 494.5→394.5 for imatinib, 488.7→401.5 for dasatinib, 530.7→289.5 for nilotinib and 528.5→403.4 for IS, were chosen to achieve high selectivity in the simultaneous analyses. The method exhibited great improvement in sensitivity and good linearity over the concentration range of 2.6–5250.0 ng/mL for imatinib, 2.0–490.0 ng/mL for dasatinib,and 2.4–4700.0 ng/mL for nilotinib.The method showed acceptable results on sensitivity,specificity, recovery, precision, accuracy and stability tests. This UPLC–MS/MS assay was successfully used for human plasma samples analysis and no significant differences were found in imatinib steady-state trough concentra-tions among the SLC22A5?1889T>C or SLCO1B3 699G>A genotypes(P>0.05).This validated method can provide support for clinical therapeutic drug monitoring and pharmacokinetic investigations of these three tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKIs).
