OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical outcomes of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).
METHODSFrom January 2007 to February 2010, the data of 40 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture underwent treatment were retrospectively analyzed. Of them,20 patients were treated with PVP (PVP group), there were 8 males and 12 females with an average age of (66.37 +/- 2.34) years old (54 to 81); 20 patients were treated with PKP (PKP group), there were 11 males and 9 females with an average of (65.12 +/- 3.21) years old (56 to 79). Postoperative at 1 week, 12 weeks, 1 year, pain and daily life function were respectively assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS) and Barthel index (BI); and anterior height of responsibility vertebra, Cobb angle were measured by X-rays.
RESULTSIn PVP group, 1 case complicated with bone cement leakage without clinical symptoms and no operation to treat. No postoperative infection and deep vein thrombosis were found between two groups. All patients were followed up more than 1 year, pain and daily life function has obviously improved than preoperative (P < 0.01); and there was no significant difference on 1 week, 12 weeks, 1 year after operation (P > 0.05); there was no significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05). In PVP group, there was no significant difference in anterior height of responsibility vertebra, Cobb angle before and after operation;and in PKP group, postoperative data has obviously improved than preoperative (P < 0.01), but there was no significant difference postoperative at 1 week, 12 weeks, 1 year (P > 0.05); there was no significant difference between two groups at 1 week, 12 weeks, 1 year after operation.
CONCLUSIONBoth the methods can obviously relieve pain and completely or partly recover daily life function in treating OVCF. But PKP has advantages of recovery of anterior height of responsibility vertebra and correction of Cobb angle, especially for serious compression.

Objective To investigate the mechanism affecting on permeability of vascular endothelial cell by nitric oxide (NO). Methods Series concentration of sin-1(a donor of NO) were added to ECV 304, a cell line of human umbilical vein endothelium. Cell growth and expression of f-actin, a cytoskeleton protein were observed. Results Cell growth was inhibited with a dose from 6.25 to 100 μmol/L and was caused to death at the concentration of 50 to 100 μmol/L by sin-1. The expression of f-actin was suppressed obviously after cultured with 100 μmol/L sin-1 for 4 hours. Conclusion It suggests that anomaly increased NO can increase permeability of blood vessels by suppressing the expression of f-actin, inhibiting cell growth or even resulting in cell death.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) in the inflammatory response induced by Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori) infection. Methods:From May 1, 2020 to January 31, 2021, 60 patients with gastritis (30 H. pylori positive and 30 H. pylori negative)and 30 healthy individuals, who initially visited the Department of Gastroenterology, Shiyan Taihe Hospital were collected, and their serum PCSK9 levels were detected. Normal gastric epithelial cell line GES-1 and macrophages induced from THP-1 cells, and GES-1 infected with H. pylori were selected to prepare different supernatant media. Phosphate buffer saline empty medium (negative control group), normal GES-1 cell supernatant medium ( H. pylori-uninfected GES-1 group), H. pylori infected GES-1 cell supernatant medium ( H. pylori infected GES-1 group), H. pylori infected GES-1 cell supernatant + PCSK9 neutralizing antibody medium (anti PCSK9 group), H. pylori infected GES-1 cell supernatant+ human immunoglobulin G medium (isotype control group) were established. The differences between H. pylori infected GES-1 group and H. pylori-uninfected GES-1 group, negative control group, anti PCSK9 group and isotype control group in number of migrated macrophages, relative expression level of CC chemokine receptor ( CCR2), the levels of released interleukin(IL)-6 and cell necrosis factor (TNF)- α, level of CD8 + T cell membrane phosphorylation, and the number of macrophage colonies were determined by Transwell assay, real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, plate colony assay, H. pylori and phagocytosis lysosome co-localization assay. The regulating mechanism of PCSK9 in H. pylori infection induced inflammation was analyzed. Independent sample t test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The serum level of PCSK9 of patients with H. pylori positive gastritis was higher than that of patients with H. pylori negative gastritis and healthy individuals ((384.00±57.57) g/L vs. (208.80±48.89) and (176.10±47.14) g/L), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=12.71 and 15.31; both P<0.001). Compared with negative control group, H. pylori standard strain and 4 isolated H. pylori strains could stimulate GES-1 to secrete PCSK9 ((1 267.00±287.50) g/L vs.(2 717.00±199.20), (4 858.00±302.40), (3 167.00±334.20), (6 075.00±597.30), (4 283.00±331.20) g/L), and the differences were statistically significant( t=10.15, 21.09, 10.56, 17.77, 16.85, all P<0.001). The number of migrated macrophages, CCR2 mRNA expression level in macrophage, expression levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, and the number of macrophage colonies of H. pylori-infected GES-1 group were all higher than those of H. pylori-uninfected GES-1 group and negative control group (132.20±5.67 vs.84.83±4.62, 39.83±4.12; 8.66±0.94 vs. 6.52±0.47 and 1.00±0.09, (281.00±8.56) ng/L vs. (115.00±7.72) and (64.00±5.44) ng/L, (619.80±18.47) ng/L vs.(373.30±12.85)and (225.70±6.44) ng/L, (357.00±16.31) colony forming unit (CFU) vs. (134.80±8.64) and (74.17±9.68) CFU), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=15.85, 32.27; 4.96, 19.79; 35.28, 52.43; 26.84, 49.37; 29.49, 36.53; all P<0.001). The percentage of co-localization of H. pylori and phagocytosis lysosome, and the expression of cell membrane CD3ζ Tyr142, granzyme B and perforin in CD8 + T cell of H. pylori-infected GES-1 group were lower than that of H. pylori-uninfected GES-1 group ((15.33±1.86)% vs. (34.50±3.72)% and (65.67±3.56)%, 464.20±120.80 vs. 1 924.00±262.10 and 2 390.00±484.10; (6.41±0.42)% vs.(17.37±0.73)% and (26.60±1.57)%; (6.84±1.37)% vs.(14.53±0.48)% and (26.22±1.21)%), and the differences were statistically significant( t=11.27 and 30.70, 12.39 and 9.45, 30.50 and 31.90, 25.96 and 13.00; all P<0.001). The number of migrated macrophages, the relative expression level of CCR2 mRNA, the expression levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, and the number of macrophage colonies of anti-PCSK9 group were all lower than those of isotype control group (72.50±4.97 vs. 128.30±6.74, 0.82±0.06 vs. 1.00±0.08, (85.50±4.37) ng/L vs. (277.70±8.98) ng/L, (291.80±13.69) ng/L vs. (615.30±12.65) ng/L, (111.50±10.21) CFU vs. (346.20±18.04) CFU), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=16.33, 4.40, 47.13, 42.50 and 27.73, all P<0.001). The percentage of co-localization of H. pylori and phagocytosis lysosome, the expression levels of CD3ζ Tyr142, granzyme B and perforin of anti-PCSK9 group were all higher than those of isotype control group ((51.05±3.03)% vs. (16.71±1.91)%, 2 948.00±384.00 vs. 1 156.00±178.60, (53.88±3.86)% vs. (5.88±0.93)%, (32.80±2.07)% vs. (6.83±0.54)%), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=23.49, 10.36, 29.60 and 29.76, all P<0.001). Conclusions:H. pylori can inhibit CD8 + T activation and cytotoxicity by inducing the release of PCSK9 from gastric epithelial cells, and can also recruit macrophages, activate nuclear factor-κB signal axis to up-regulate the level of released inflammatory factors from macrophages, inhibit the phagocytosis and killing effects of macrophages, so as to regulate the inflammatory response.

OBJECTIVETo culture and amplify the young rabbit's bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) in vitro, and to observe the effect of hypothermia on the cells' growing behavior and biological function.
METHODSBMSCs were acquired from the rabbit' tibia bone marrow and induced to mature osteoblasts in vitro. The cultured cells growing well in vitro were preserved in liquid nitrogen. The anabiotic cells having cryopreserved for 1 week were chosen as the experimental group, and the routine 7th generation as the control group. Their biological function in comparion by the examination of morphological changes, cells' proliferation ability, colone forming ratio, synthesis ability of ALP and protein, mineralized nodes forming ability were observed.
RESULTSAs contrast to the control groups, the anabiotic cells also grew and proliferated well in vitro except a little more slowly than before. They had the similar general shape in all the time segments, but a little differences in cells' ultrastructure. The experimental groups also had the typical characters of mature osteoblasts, and high abilities of the synthesis of ALP and proteins. The statistic data showed that these two groups had no significant difference (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe cryopreserved osteoblasts had the same biological functions and the similar growing behaviors as before. These results suggest that it is practical to use the cryopreserved osteoblasts for further study on bone tissue engineering.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the dynamic distribution of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) in mdx mice.
METHODSTwenty-four 8-10-week-old immunocompromised mdx mice were transplanted with 1 x 10(7) passage 5 hBM-MSCs labeled with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) by means of injection into the tail vein. The mice were euthanized 48 hours and 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 weeks after transplantation. BrdU-positive cells in tissue and organs of the mice were detected by immunofluorescence analysis. Skeletal muscle was stained for anti-human nuclei mouse monoclonal antibody (anti-Hu) and analyzed for human dystrophin (Dys) expression by immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.
RESULTSAfter transplantation, BrdU-positive cells were found in most organs (especially in bone marrow, liver, and lung) within 4 weeks, and these cells in liver and lung decreased gradually after 4 weeks. At 48 hours after transplantation, BrdU-positive cells were found in bone marrow, which reached a peak level after 2 weeks and were still detectable after 16 weeks. BrdU-positive cells in skeletal muscle increased gradually over time of transplantation. A small number of anti-Hu positive cells were detected in skeletal muscle 2 weeks after transplantation. A small number of Dys positive cell were seldom found at 4 weeks and small Dys mRNA expression detected 4 weeks after transplantation. The proportion of anti-Hu in parallel with Dys positive cells and Dys mRNA in skeletal muscle of mdx mice increased gradually over time of transplantation.
CONCLUSIONAfter being transplanted into mdx mice, hBM-MSCs are mainly distributed in bone marrow, liver, and lung during the early time (2-4 weeks) , and then in bone marrow and skeletal muscle (after 4 weeks).
