BACKGROUND:At present,application revascularization and drug treatment may arrest aggravation of heart function and arrhythmic development,but effectiveness is limited.Infarcted myocardial cells are still impossible to regenerate.How to make necrotic myocardial cell regeneration and diastolic myocardial function is the problem to solve.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the study progress of bone marrow stem cells in treatment of myocardial infarction.RETRIEVAL STRATEGY:A computerized online database of Pubmed was searched to identify articles published from May 2000 to July 2006 with the key words of "the marrow stem-cell,cell transplant,myocardial infarction" in English.Simultaneously,articles published between October 1997 and December 2006 were identified in China Journal Full-text Database with the same key word in Chinese.Sixty-seven articles were retrieved and data were selected primarily.Inclusive criteria:①articles related to the transplantation of bone marrow stem cells for the treatment of myocardial infarction,②in the same field,articles recently published or in authoritative journals.Exclusive criteria:①articles of repetitive study,and ②Meta analysis.LITERATURE EVALUATION:Articles mainly analyzes the transplantation of stem cells for the treatment of myocardial infarction.Of the 30 included articles,10 were reviews and the rest was clinical or basic studies.DATA SYNTHESIS:①Bone marrow stem cells are composed of bone marrow mononuclear cells,hematopoietic stem cells,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,endothelial stem/progenitor cells,multipotent adult progenitor cells and so on.②After the transplantation,bone marrow stem cells can differentiate into myocardiocytes,and do effectively electromechanical coupling with receptors.Bone marrow stem cells can promote the angiogenesis in ischemic region,avoid ethical dispute and immunological rejection,and these cells are easy to collect.Bone marrow stem cells are adult stem cells,and its transdifferentiation deserves further study.Many clinical studies showed that autogeneic bone marrow stem cell transplantation for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction and heart failure could be achieved.③Matrix metalloproteinase,stem cell factor and stromal cell chemokine from bone marrow stem cells play important roles in stem cell mobilization,homing and myocardial repair.Tissue injury and high-level multipotential stem cells are two key factors of the differentiation of bone marrow stem cells in myocardial microenvironment.④ Problems in bone marrow stem cell transplantation included cell type,regulatory mechanism of transdifferentiation,optimal time,manner and safety of transplantation,etc.CONCLUSION:Through establishing complete animal model,the possibility of each technique in clinical procedures is explored.Bone marrow stem cells in treatment of acute myocardial infarction may become a new method,which has different from traditional drug treatment,interventional therapy of cardiovascular disease and surgical intervention.

Objective To obtain abundant human betacellulin(BTC) with biological activity. Methods The whole mature protein coding sequence of BTC gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) method applied to human pancreatic ?-cell tumors cDNA.The fragment was cloned into prokaryotic expression vector pET32a(+) plasmid.The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21 and the fusion protein was expressed under isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside(IPTG).The fusion protein was purified by Ni2+ affinity chromatography.SDS-PAGE and Western blot were employed to determine the expression and purification of the expected protein.BTC was added to culture NIH3T3 cells for 5 days,and cell proliferation was detected by MTT. Results Lots of fusion protein were produced,and the purified protein can stimulate the proliferation of NIH3T3 cells. Conclusion The human BTC can be successfully obtained from the pET32a(+) system with the biological activity of stimulating the proliferation of NIH3T3 cells.

Objective To construct eukaryotic expression vector of human pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1(PDX-1) gene,and to detect its expression in NIH3T3 cell lines. Methods The whole coding sequence of PDX-1 gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) from human pancreatic-cell tumors cDNA.The fragment was inserted into eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1 plasmid.The recombinant plasmid was verified by double digestion and DNA sequencing.The expression of PDX-1 gene in NIH3T3 cells was assayed by Western blot. Results The length of specific fragment amplified by PCR was 852 bp,and the recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1-PDX-1 showed two bands of 5.5 kb and 852 bp by digestion using respective restriction enzymes BamHⅠand EcoRⅠ.The sequence of PDX-1 gene was approved or confirmed by blasting to GenBank.It was suggested that PDX-1 gene had been cloned into pcDNA3.1 vector correctly.Western blot showed that PDX-1 gene was expressed,which was detected 24 h after pcDNA3.1-PDX-1 plasmid was transfected into NIH3T3 cells. Conclusion The recombinant eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1-PDX-1 was successfully constructed and expressed in NIH3T3 cell lines.

Background Identifying and testing of pain is very necessary for the care and decrease of the suffering of experimental animal in medical experiment.Effective method for testing the pain and distress status of experimental animal with eye disease is still absent in China.Objective This pilot study was to establish an evaluating system for assessing the pain and distress status of bullous keratopathy rabbit model.Methods This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of Beijing University First Hospital.Twelve healthy New Zealand rabbits were selected in this experiment.Bullous keratopathy model was established in the left eyes of 9 rabbits by scraping corneal endothelium as the experimental team,and other 3 rabbits were served as the control team.The cornea lesion was examined by manipulate slit lamp,and the central cornea thickness (CCT) was measured by ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM).Weight+20 Indexes For Pain and Distress Status Referring Guidelines for Pain and Distress in Laboratory Animals made by International Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) were assessed and measured as well.Results Corneal edema and opacity were obvious 1 day after surgery.Corneal bullous appeared from the third day after surgery,and cornea erosion was seen at the location of bullous breakage.The corneal lesions remained until 14 days after surgery.CCT value was (1468±100),(2313±588),(2391±271) and (2362±151) μm,respectively in day 1,3,7 and 14 after the establishment of models,which showed significant increase in comparison with the preoperative CCT (390±6)μm (all P=0.000).However,no significant difference was seen in the CCT between day 3,7 and 14 (P＞0.05).Body weight of the rabbits was (3.29±0.20),(3.20-0.17),(2.77±0.25) and (3.10±0.30)kg respectively in day 1,3,7 and 14 after operation,with significant decrease in comparison with the pre-operative weight (3.52-0.18)kg in the experimental team (P=0.008,0.007,0.003,0.004).The scores for pain and distress status of all rabbits in pre-operation of the experimental team and in the control team were zero,and the score was 7 (7,7),11 (10,12),9 (8,10),9 (9,9)in day 1,3,7 and 14 in the experimental team after surgery,with the highest score in day 3,which was bullous and bullous breakage duration.Seven of twenty indexes,including the reduce of diet and drinking,self-imposed isolation/hiding,grinding teeth,aggression,deceased movement,abnormal posture,vocalization occurred in the model animals after surgery.Conclusions Weight+20 Indexes For Pain and Distress Status is an effective,impersonal and quantitative method for observing and evaluating the pain and stress status in bullous keratopathy rabbit.
