Objective To investigate the bioactivities of controlled release bFGF microspheres (Ms) and their effects on the cultured osteoblasts. Methods The secondary cultured osteoblasts were divided into four groups according to the different ingredients being added to the DMEM culture medium, ie, control group,bFGF group, bFGF-PLGA-Ms group and bFGF-PELA-Ms group. The proliferation of the cultured osteoblasts was measured with cell counting method, MTT method and flow cytometry. The content of bone BGP secreted by osteoblast was also measured with RIA method. Results The in vitro cellular study showed no significant difference in the cell number and cell viability of four groups one day after plate culture.The cell number and cell viability in the bFGF-PLGA -Ms group were more than those in other three groups four and six days after plate culture. The cell number and cell viabilitythose in the bFGF group were more than those in the bFGF-PELA-Ms group six and eight days after plate culture with insignificant difference. The flow cytometrical examination showed that the G 2/M+S percentage in the bFGF group reached the highest two days after plate culture and the G 2/M+S percentage in the bFGF-PLGA-Ms group went the highest four and eight days after plate culture. Among four groups, the content of BGP in the bFGF-PLGA-Ms group was the highest and the bFGF-PELA-Ms group the next. Conclusions The effect of bFGF-PELA-Ms is not satisfactory,as indicates that the manufacturing method needs improving. However,the bFGF-PLGA-Ms can promote the proliferation and differentiation of the osteoblasts through a long period of controlled release of bFGF.

Aim To investigate the influence of iridosides of cornus officinalis(ICO) on morphology, cell cycle and oxidative stress of glomerular mesangial cells(GMC) cultured with advanced glycation end products(AGEs). Methods GMC were incubated in culture medium containing AGEs in the presence of ICO and aminoguanidin for 48 hours. At the same time, the control and model groups were added. Then the cultured GMC were stained by mixed fluorescence liquid and observed under fluorescence microscope. Cell cycle of GMC were analyzed using flowcytometry. The content of MDA, activity of SOD and GSH-Px in GMC supernatant were measured. The level of ROS was detected using flowcytometry. Result Morphology analysis showed that the morphology and structure of normal GMC were normal. The structure of most cells in AGEs were unclear, cell counts increased largely and they grow intensively. Cell cycle analysis showed that cell percentage of S phase increased and G_0/G_1 reduced. The level of ROS, MDA remarkably increased, and SOD, GSH-Px activity reduced. When the ICO were added, cell morphology tended to be basically normal and cell counts decreased, the percentale of S phase also decreased. The level of ROS, MDA and the SOD, GSH-Px activity restored in comparison with the model groups. Conclusion ICO can prevent the cultured GMC from lesion caused by AGEs. ICO may protect GMC from AGES to retard the progression of diabetic nepropathy by partially inhibiting the occurrence of oxidative stress.
