Objective To clarify the effects of Xinfukang containing-serum on stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α) translation and protein secretion of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs).Methods BMSCs were isolated and amplified using bone marrow culture method,and were identified by flow cytometry.mRNA and protein secretion of SDF-1α were detected by quantitative PCR (q-PCR) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),respectively.Results The expression of SDF-1α mRNA were significantly increased after 72 h in drug-containing serum,and SDF-1α mRNA in the experimental group was approximately 200 times as that in the control group (P<0.05).Secretion of SDF-1 α in the experimental group (277.561 1 ± 15.651 8) pg/ml was nearly doubled compared with that in the control group (153.107 1±14.765 1) pg/ml (P<0.05).Conclusions BMSCs from whole bone marrow adherent culture have high purity,and drug-containing serum can promote BMSCs to express SDF-1 α mRNA and secretion of SDF-1 α.

Objective :
To explore whether miR⁃9 affects the proliferation of neural stem cells (NSCs) by regulating β ⁃tubulin Ⅲ and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) .
Methods :
NSCs cells were isolated and cultured on the purchased healthy pregnant mice and the isolated cells were divided into NO group ( non⁃transfected NSCs cell line) , NN group (NSCs transfected with miR⁃9 ⁃NC) , NM group (NSCs transfected) transfected with miR⁃9 mimics) , NI group ( transfected with miR⁃9 inhibitor) . Nestin was identified by immunofluorescence , the contents of Mir⁃9 , β ⁃tubulin Ⅲ and GFAP were measured by QRT⁃PCR , the proliferation of NSCs was measured by MTT method , the apoptosis of NSCs was measured by flow cytometry , and the protein expressions of Mir⁃9 , β ⁃tubulin Ⅲ and GFAP were detected by Western blot.
Results :
The detection index Nestin of NSCs for 24 h after cell passage was positive in 90% of the NSCs , and co⁃localized with the nucleus , indicating the successful isolation of NSCs. The expression of miR⁃9 mRNA in NSCs of the NM group was the highest among the four groups , indicating that the transfection was successful. Among the four groups , β ⁃tubulin Ⅲ mRNA and protein expression was the highest in the NM group , and the GFAP mRNA and protein expression was the lowest. The NI group was the opposite (P < 0. 05) . In the four groups after 24 h , the cell activity of NSCs in the NM group was the strongest and showed a trend of gradually increasing with time (P < 0. 05) . The cell activity of NI was significantly weaker than that of the other three groups (P < 0. 05) . Among the four groups , the apoptosis rate of the NM group was lower than that of the other three groups (P < 0. 05) , and the apoptosis rate of NI was higher than that of the other three groups (P < 0. 05) . The difference in the above indicators between the NO group and the NN group was smaller.
Conclusion
Overexpressed miR⁃9 promotes the proliferation of NSCs by promoting the expression of β ⁃tubulin Ⅲ and inhibiting the expression of GFAP.
