Objective To explore the immunomodulation property of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) from Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats after they are isolated, cultured and identified by surface marker and differentiation potential examination. Methods BMSCs were isolated from femur and tibia of SD rats and passaged by trypsinization. The surface markers of the 3rd passage BMSCs were detected by flow cytometry and the capacity of their adipocyte and cartilage differentiation were examined. In order to explore the immunomodulation property of BMSCs, allogeneic spleen T cells of Wi?star rats were co-cultured with BMSCs through either cell-to-cell contact or transwell, then its effect on the T cell subsets and related mechanism was also examined. Results BMSCs were mainly spindle-shaped in culture. Surface marker detec?tion showed that BMSCs expressed high levels of CD29, CD44 and CD90 but no CD34 nor CD45 at the third generation. Un?der specific condition, BMSCs could differentiate into adipocytes and chondrocytes. The CD8+effector T cells (Teffs) decreas?es effectively and the CD4+CD25+regulatory T cells (Tregs) increased remarkably when BMSCs were co-cultured with allo?geneic spleen T cells for 48 hours. The expressions of IL-10 and TGF-β1 of BMSCs significantly increased after co-culture with T cells, and this effect was more obvious in cell-to-cell contact group. Conclusion The immunomodulation property of BMSCs were presumably function through cell-to-cell contacts and cytokine secretion.

Objective an experimental animal model of acute myoc ardial infarction (ANI) was established by opening chest and ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. Methods a total of 20 rabbits were opened chest and ligated LAD under sterilization. Electrocardiogram (ECG) and myocardial-enzymes in blood serum were investigated. Results ECG of all rabbi t s showed normal before operation. Irmediately after and 1/2 hour after ligation , ST-segment elevated and ECG showed ambulatory changes for 7 and 9 rabbits respectively. Two hours after LAD ligation, the change of ECG for 2 rabbits wa s not typical and 2 of them died during experiment. Four weeks after operation, E CG of 18 rabbits showed the chest leads had pathologic Q waves. Twenty-four ho urs after LAD ligation, AST, LDH, LDH-1, CK and CK-MB in blood serum were significantly increased. There was significant difference compared with before operation (except LDH) (P<0. 0l). Conclusions:The method was sim ple and well repeated. The formation of myocardial infarction was reliable and rabbits were maintained for a long time after operation. It provides a valuable animal mode l for the experiment study of coronary heart disease.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of rotator cuff tears combined with long head of bicep tendon (LHBT) lesion and its effects on preoperative function.Methods:From January 2016 to January 2020, there were 680 patients with rotator cuff tears, including 260 males and 420 females, were included. The average age was 56.1±8.7 (range 27-74 years). There were 250 cases on the left side and 430 cases on the right side. There were 436 cases on the main side, while 274 cases had definite trauma before operation. The following were the Post rotator cuff tears classification, 133 cases in partial injury, 473 cases in small and medium size of rotator cuff tears, 74 cases in large and massive size of rotator cuff tears. The Habermayer-Walch classification of LHBT lesions was as following, 302 cases in type 0 (normal), 216 cases in type 1 (tendonitis), 29 cases in type 2 (dislocation and subluxation), 104 cases in type 3 (partial tear), 20 cases in type 4 (complete tear) and 9 cases in type 5 (SLAP injury above type II). The patient with rotator cuff tears were divided into partial tears group, medium and small tears group, large and massive tears group according to the classification of Post. The visual analogue scale (VAS), simple shoulder test (SST), Constant-Murley function score and the score of the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) were recorded. The differences in age, sex, main side, trauma and LHBT lesion in patients with three types of rotator cuff tears were analyzed. The preoperative pain and function scores of patients with or without LHBT lesions in various rotator cuff tears were compared among the groups by t-test. The age, sex, main side, with trauma or not, and the classification of rotator cuff tears were analyzed by Logistic regression to investigate the risk factors of patients with rotator cuff tears with LHBT lesions. Results:There were 378 cases (55.6%) with LHBT lesions in 680 patients with rotator cuff tears, including 216 cases of tendinitis (57.1%), 104 cases of partial tear (27.5%), 29 cases of dislocation and subluxation (7.7%), 20 cases of complete tear (5.3%) and 9 cases of SLAP injury (2.4%). The incidence of partial injury, small and medium injury, large and massive rotator cuff injury combined with LHBT lesions were 35.3% (47/133), 57.5% (272/473) and 79.7% (59/74) respectively. The preoperative VAS score, UCLA score, Constant-Murley score and SST score were 5.20±1.52, 14.81±4.12, 41.45±4.93 and 4.56±1.96 respectively in rotator cuff tears group and 5.29±1.65, 14.34±4.01, 41.60±5.88, 4.47±1.97 in LHBT group ( P>0.05). In the partial rotator cuff tears group, the VAS score was 5.16±1.41 in patients with simple rotator cuff tears and 5.68±1.46 in patients with LHBT lesion ( t=2.004, P=0.047). Regression analysis showed that age ≥60 years and rotator cuff tears degree were the risk factors for rotator cuff tears with LHBT ( P<0.001). Conclusion:It is common for patients to have rotator cuff tears with LHBT lesions. The more severe the rotator cuff tears are, the higher the incidence of LHBT lesions will be. Patients with rotator cuff tears aged 60 and above are more likely to have LHBT lesions. However, the complications of LHBT could not affect the preoperative pain and functional scores of patients with rotator cuff tears.

ObjectiveTo study the mechanism of hemodynamic alternation surrounding the hematoma in the acute stage of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in rats.MethodsSeventy male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into ICH group and sham operated group, which were microinjected with 40 μl fresh autologous blood or saline into the right caudatum respectively. The each group was divided into 7 subgroups at 1h,3h,6h,12h,24h,48h and 72h after the ICH. CT perfusion imaging in measurements of regional cerebral blood flow adjacent to hematomas was performed. The ratios of side to side were measured at the regions around the hematomas by personal computer aided mapping. So the parameters of regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF), regional cerebral blood volume(rCBV) and mean transit time(MTT) were calculated respectively.ResultsThe rCBF and rCBV adjacent to the hematomas were lower than those of the outer region pronouncedly. The alternation of rCBF around the hematoma were fluctuated, which reduced to the valley at 1h after ICH, and then gradually returned to the peaks at 6h and 24h after ICH. In the meantime, the rCBV around the hematoma reduced to the valley at 1h after ICH, and then gradually increased to the peak at 24h after ICH.ConclusionThe abnormal hemodynamic changes can be found in the perihematomal region after ICH. The alternation of rCBF around the hematomas are fluctuated, but the changes of rCBV remain continuous increase. The mass effect of hematoma, intracranial hypertension caused by the mass effect of hematoma, and the autoregulation of cerebral blood flow motivated by the initial depression of cerebral blood flow play a very important role in the changes of cerebral blood flow.
