BACKGROUND: Classic isolation method of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is Percoll density gradient centrifugation. Blood cell component was removed. However, this method is complicated. Preparation density was needed when isolating dog bone marrow. Moreover, centrifugation was frequent, which had a great damage to cells. OBJECTIVE: To establish methods of the isolation, proliferation, culture and osteoinduction of canine BMSCs, and observe the in vitro proliferation and ability to osteoinduction differentiation. METHODS: 10 mL bone marrow was extracted from dog posterior superior iliac spine, heparin anticoagulation, diluted using Hanks juice, treated with 1.077 g/mL Ficoll solution 3 mL, and centrifuged at 2 000 r/min for 20 minutes. Karyocytes were absorbed to form white cloudlike layering interface, and then centrifuged twice using DMEM supplemented with fetal bovine serum, incubated at 12×10~4/cm~2 at 37 ℃ in a 5% CO_2 incubator. Following subculture, cells were incubated in DMEM containing dexamethasone, β-sodium phosphoglycerol and ascorbic acid 2-phosphate. Immunocytochemical staining and immunofluorescence staining were utilized to detect osteocalcin, osteopontin and type Ⅰ collagen expression in osteoblasts. Alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red staining were performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: 1.077 g/mL Ficoll density gradient centrifugation was used to isolate karyocytes that were significant compared with Percoll solution. Obtained BMSCs had high purity, good growth and the mean doubling time was 24 hours. Following in vitro osteogenic incubation of dog BMSCs, osteocalcin, osteopontin and type Ⅰ collagen showed positive expression. Alkaline phosphatase staining demonstrated bluish-green cytoplasm. Alizarin red staining showed red nodes in extracellular matrix, and could differentiate into osteoblasts in vitro.

Objective To construct a fusion gene (h1a-spaO) encoding H1a-SpaO protein of Sal-monella paratyphi A ( S.paratyphi A) and to express it in prokaryotic expression system , then to further ana-lyze the immunoprotective effects of the expressed protein rH 1a-SpaO.Methods The h1a-spaO fusion gene formed from separate h1a and spaO genes was amplified by PCR using flexible peptide sequence-containing linking primers and then sequenced after T-A cloning.A prokaryotic expression system for expressing h1a-spaO fusion gene was constructed by using the genetic engineering technique .The expressed protein rH1a-SpaO was examined by SDS-PAGE.The antigenicity and immunoreactivity of rH1a-SpaO protein were deter-mined by Western blot assay .The ability of rH1a-SpaO antiserum agglutinating S.paratyphi A strains was detected by micro-Widal′s test.The immunoprotective effects of rH 1a-SpaO against the lethal dose challenge of S.paratyphi A strains were analyzed in a mouse model and that were compared with those by using equal dose of individual recombinant protein H1a and SpaO (rH1a and rSpaO) as the immunogens, respectively. Results The h1a-spaO fusion gene was 100%identical with the individual h1a or spaO gene in nucleotide and amino acid sequences .The constructed prokaryotic expression system could express the recombinant pro-tein rH1a-SpaO with an advantage of high efficiency .rH1a-SpaO protein was able to react with rH 1a or rSpaO antiserum.Moreover, rH1a-SpaO antiserum also could efficiently recognize rH 1a and rSpaO as well as agglutinate Salmonella paratyphi A strains by binding with H-antigen.The immunoprotective rate (93.3%) in mice pre-immunized with 100 μg of rH1a-SpaO protein was significantly higher than that in those pre-immunized with equal dose of rH1a (60.0%) protein or rSpaO protein(53.3%) (P<0.05).Conclusion The recombinant fusion protein rH 1a-SpaO showed more stronger immunoprotective function than the individ-ual rH1a or rSpaO protein , which could be used as an effective antigen for the development of bi -valent para-typhoid A vaccine or typhoid/paratyphoid capsular polysaccharide-protein combined vaccine .
