Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2015;(6):865-869,870
Aim To investigate the reversal effect of PARP-1 inhibitor PJ34 on cisplatin-resistance in hu-man lung adenocarcinoma A549/DDP cells and the mechanism. Methods A549/DDP cells were treated with PJ34 alone or combined with cisplatin. The effects of proliferation inhibition were assayed by MTT meth-
od. The apoptosis ratios of cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein expression of PARP-1 and LRP, GST-π were measured by Western blot assay. Results PJ34 could inhibit the proliferation of A549/DDP cells alone. The non-toxic dose of PJ34 could signifi-cantly resensitize A 5 4 9/ DDP cells to cisplatin , induce
apoptotic,lower the expression of PARP-1 and resist-ance-associated protein LRP and GST-π. Conclusion PJ34 could inhibit the proliferation of A549/DDP cells and resensitize A549/DDP cells,partially reverse cisplatin-resistance in A549/DDP cells, with a proba-
ble mechanism relating to increased apoptotic rate,and lowered expression of PARP-1 and resistance-associat-ed protein LRP and GST-π.
2.Implantable artificial pacemaker: materials and material-related complications
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2017;21(6):975-979
BACKGROUND:The implantable artificial pacemaker that needs long-term wear is in direct contact with human body tissue, and thus, biocompatibility of the materials is very important. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the material progress and material-related complications of implantable artificial pacemakers. METHODS:Articles related to implantable artificial pacemaker materials and related complications were searched in Wanfang database and PubMed database from 2000 to 2015. The keywords were pacemaker; materials; pacemaker leads; pacemaker electrode; complication in Chinese and English, respectively. Finaly, 27 articles were included and summarized. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The implantable artificial pacemakers are in direct contact with the body tissues through the titanium alloy shell covering the pulser, the electrode wire covering the silicone, polyurethane, epoxy resin, and the electrode materials (including carbon, platinum-iridium alloy, Elgilog alloy). These materials have good physical and chemical properties as well as good cytocompatibility, electrophysiological compatibility and blood compatibility with the human body that have been confirmed in the past decades. However, material-related complications often occur, such as contact dermatitis, wire breakage, dislocation, cardiac perforation, venous thrombosis and tricuspid regurgitation along the wire, capsular infection and hematoma when placing the pulser. With the rapid development of today's microelectronic technology, research on the modification of pacemaker materials and the pacing system has been ongoing and has made considerable progress. Moreover, wireless pacemaker development and clinical application may be the future direction of development.

BACKGROUND:Transforming growth factor-βhas been shown to exert an obvious induction effect on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into chondrocytes. Cyclical tensile strain simulates mechanical environment of chondrocytes in the body, and plays an important regulatory role in cellproliferation and differentiation. OBJECTIVE:To discuss the synergy of transforming growth factor-βand cyclical tensile strain in inducing the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into chondrocyte-like cells. METHODS:A total of 10 2-month-old New Zealand rabbits were selected. Bone needle was used to penetrate the medul ary cavity of bone. 3.0-4.0 mL of bone marrow was extracted for isolation and culture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Passage 3 cells were randomly assigned to four groups:blank, transforming growth factor-β, cyclical tensile strain and cyclical tensile strain+transforming growth factor-βgroups. After 1, 3 and 6 days, cells were obtained. General morphology was observed using safranin O staining. Glycosaminoglycan levels were detected by alcian blue staining. Matrix metal oproteinase-13 and tissue inhibitor of metal oproteinase-1 levels in supernatant were measured using ELISA. Type II col agen, matrix metal oproteinase-13 and tissue inhibitor of metal oproteinase-1 mRNA relative expression was detected using RT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Safranin O staining showed fusiform or irregular triangular cells. cellnumber
and matrix secretion increased in each experimental group than in blank group. Glycosaminoglycan levels in the supernatant were greater in the transforming growth factor-βand cyclical tensile strain+transforming growth factor-βgroups than in the blank group (P<0.05). Type II col agen mRNA relative expression was higher in the cyclical tensile strain+transforming growth factor-βgroup than in the blank group (P<0.05). Results indicated that transforming growth factor-βand cyclical tensile strain could induce the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into chondrocytes, showing an apparent cooperative action.

Objective To describe the surgical technique of arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament with quadrupled stranded semitendinosus tendon and suture plate, and to review the short term outcome of its clinical application. Methods Fifty one cases of chronic anterior cruciate ligament ruptures were reconstructed arthroscopically with quadrupled stranded semitendinosus tendon. During the operation the harvested semitendinosus tendon was cut into two segments of equal length, and then folded to four strands. The proximal end of the graft was fixed to a small plate that lied over the orifice of the femoral tunnel, and the distal end was fixed to a button that covered the orifice of the tibial tunnel. The patients were followed up for 12-24 months and were rehabilitated according to a special plan. The range of motion and stability of the knee, the muscle function of the thigh, the knee function in daily activities, and the ability for running were evaluated periodically. The influence of the combined meniscal and cartilage lesion on the restoration of knee function was also studied. Results The ranges of motion of the injured knee were regained in all cases three months after operation. The quadriceps/hamstrings peak torque ratio reached more than 90% of the uninjured leg two years after operation. The results of KT-1000 examination showed that the anterior stability of the knee after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction decreased slightly with time, but in 73.8 percent of all cases the anterior stability of the injured knee were equal or better than the uninjured knee. According to Lysholm knee scale score, the average knee score were 56.7?7.4 and 98.5?0.3 respectively before and two years after operation, and the difference was of statistical significance. The average knee score of the group with cartilage lesion was 96.44?2.36, and that without cartilage lesion was 99.47?0.24 two years after operation. The data showed a significant statistical difference between the two groups. The accelerating and decelerating running ability were regained in all cases without limping one year after operation. Conclusion Arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament with quadrupled stranded semitendinosus tendon and suture plate is a reliable way to restore the knee function. The combined cartilage lesion has an obvious influence on the knee function.
