Objective To investigate the effects of three different motor training regimens on motor function improvement after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats.Methods Forty-five healthy,adult Sprague-Dawley rats (female),weight 260-300 g,were included.Six rats were selected as the normal group.A model of incomplete SCI at the T9 level was induced in the others using a modification of Allen's method.Nine rats died after the injury and were excluded.The other 30 rats were randomly divided into 5 groups:a 7 d control group,a 35 d control group,a bodyweight-supported-treadmill-training (BWSTT) group,a swimming training group and a wheel running group,with 6 rats in each group.The three training groups began exercising at the 8th day post surgery,30 min per day,5 days a week for 4 weeks.Locomotor function was evaluated by inclined plane tests,modified Tarlov scores,and the BassoBeattie-Bresnahan (BBB) scale before the operation and on the 1st,7th,14th,21st,28th,and 35th day post surgery.Histomorphological changes of the T9 level spinal cord and the gastrocnemius muscle were observed with light microscopy and electron microscopy,and the cross sectional areas and diameters of the gastrocnemius muscle fibers were calculated.Results ①In the BWSTT group and the swimming training group,locomotor function scores increased significantly at all time points compared with the two control groups.There was no significant difference in rehabilitative effect between the BWSTT group and the swimming training group.But compared with both control groups,improvement in the wheel running group was not significant.②After 4 weeks of training,histomorphological observation of the injured T9 spinal cord tissue and gastrocnemius muscle fibers showed that the improvement in the BWSTT group was the most significant.The edema of the injured T9 level spinal cord tissue had decreased,cell vascular degeneration had lessened,the morphology of the neurons and glial cells trended to perfect recovery and nerve fibers had proliferated significantly.③Comparing the cross sectional areas and diameters of gastrocnemius muscle fibers showed that the improved amyotrophy in the BWSTT group was the most significant.The average cross sectional area (55.34 + 14.46 μm2) and diameter (8.32 + 0.99 μm) were close to the normal group (55.49±13.84 μm2 and 8.37 +1.13 μm).The swimming training group also had great improvement (46.05±8.50 μm2 and 7.68 + 0.76 μm) compared with the 35 d control group,while improvement in the wheel running group was not significant.Conclusions All three motor training regimens can improve locomotor and neurologic function,but the effects of BWSTT and swimming are better than that of wheel running.

Objective To explore the effects of maternal allergy symptoms on the cytokine level of umbilical cord blood of neonates.Methods A cross sectional study was conducted among 136 pregnant women in Yiwu city from 1st July to 30th December,in 2012.A questionnaire on social economic charactertistics was used and blood sam-ple of pregnant women and umbilical cord blood sample were collected to detect the level of IgE,eosinophile granulo-cyte,Eotaxin,IL-9,IL-6,IL-4,IL-5,IFN-γ,IL-10.The differences between pregnant women with and without allergy symptoms were carried out.Results There were no significant differences in social and demographic characteristics between the two groups(all P>0.05).Pregnant women with allergy symptoms had higher IgE level(0.13 IU/mL vs 0.10 IU/Ml,Z=-2.063,P=0.039),eosinophile granulocyte(0.39 ×109/mL vs 0.29 ×109/mL,Z=-2.548, P=0.011),Eotaxin(66.18ng/L vs 48.35ng/L,Z=-2.144,P=0.032),IFN-γ(927.81ng/L vs 338.65ng/L,Z=-2.051,P=0.040),IL-10(15.59ng/L vs 11.55ng/L,Z=-2.022,P=0.043) than pregnant women without allergy symptoms in neonates′cord blood.Conclusion Maternal allergy symptoms may increase the level of IgE, eosinophile granulocyte,Eotaxin,IFN-γand IL-10 of neonates′cord blood.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of radiofrequency ablation (RFA)combined with low frequency ultrasound radiation with microbubble for the treatment of malignant liver neoplasms.Methods The clinical data of 25 patients with malignant liver neoplasms who received RFA combined with low frequency ultrasound radiation with microbubble at the Kunming General Hospital from January 2010 to June 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.RFA was firstly performed with ultrasonic guidance,and then low frequency ultrasound radiation with microbubble was performed according to the results of ultrasound contrast examination 1 week after RFA.Ultrasound contrast examination was performed and the hepatic function and serum alpha fetoprotein (AFP) were assayed before operation,3 and 6 months after operation,respectively.All data were analyzed using the t test or chi-square test.Results The gross tumor volumes of 16 patients reduced by 30％ at 3 months after operation when compared with that before operation.The gross tumor volumes of 17 patients reduced by 50％ at 6 months after operation when compared with that before operation.The gross tumor volume of 7 patients reduced,but tissues surrounding tumors showed the signal of bloodstream.The gross tumor volume of 1 patient did not reduce.The levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST),total bilirubin (TBil) and alpha fetoprotein (AFP) at 3 months after operation were significantly lower than those before operation (t =23.51,13.79,257.07,P ＜0.05).The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT),AST,TBil and AFP at 6 months after operation were significantly lower than those before operation (t =5.67,27.19,21.02,333.46,P ＜ 0.05).No local recurrence was detected during a follow-up of 6 months.The scores of quality of life (QOL) were very good in 21 (84.0％) patients,good in 2 (8.0％) patients,fair in 1 (4.0％) patient and poor in 1 (4.0％) patient.The scores of Karnofsky (KPS)were improved in 19 (76.0％) patients,stable in 5 (20.0％) patients and aggravated in 1 (4.0％) patient.There were significant differences in QOL and KPS between pre-and postoperation (x2=41.600,18.960,P ＜0.05).Conclusion RFA combined with low frequency ultrasound radiation with microbubble is effective in reducing the tumor size and protect the hepatic function for patients with malignant liver neoplasms.

Objective To investigate the correlation between immune cell function and the infection after renal transplantation through monitoring of immune function intracellular ATP by Cylex ImmuKnow assay,and explore its significance in individual immunosuppressive therapy of renal transplantion recipients.Method We collected 44 renal transplant patients suffered from pulmonary infection from January 2014 to March 2015.The patients were divided into two groups according to the clinical status,namely,ImmuKnow monitoring group (n =22) and empirical treatment group (n =22).Thirty-two non-infection recipients were collected as controls.All the kidney transplantation recipients received immunosuppressive therapy based on calcineurin inhibitors,mycophenolate mofetil and prednisone,and ATG for induction therapy after transplantatior.The immune cell function levels were measured by Cylex ImmuKnow assay.The whole blood samples were collected before infection onset,at the time of infection,and 1 week after infection resolution.Result When infection occurred,ATP concentrations in CD4+ T cells of the kidney transplant recipients were significantly lower than those in non-infection group [(151.30--71.35 ng/mL vs.(308.34 ± 141.29 ng/mL,P＜0.05).When the infection got controlled,the ATP concentrations in CD4+ T cells increased to those before infection occurred.The average hospitalization time in ImmuKnow monitoring group was 12.27 ± 0.74 days,which was significantly shorter than in empirical treatment group (16.64 ± 1.98 days,P＜ 0.05).The incidence of acute rejection was 4.5％ in ImmuKnow monitoring group,and 13.6％ in empirical treatment group (P＞0.05).Conclusion The examination of ATP in CD4+ T cells by Cylex Immuknow assay could reflect the status of cellular immunity,provide reliable and objective basis for the diagnosis and treatment of infection after renal transplantation,and guide the clinical individualized immunosuppressive therapy.

BACKGROUND:Osteogenic differentiation is a complex process involving transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation by multiple signaling pathways, and the specific mechanisms remain unclear. It is of great significance to study the role of critical miRNAs in the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in the treatment of osteoporosis and bone defects. OBJECTIVE: To explore the regulatory ability of miR-21/Sprouty1 function axis in the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs in patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis. METHODS:BMSCs were isolated from healthy people (H-hBMSCs) and patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP-hBMSCs), and their osteogenic ability was compared. Expression of miR-21 and Spry1 at gene and protein levels was detected by real-time RT-PCR and western blot assay, respectively. miR-21 expression was upregulated via transfection in PMOP-hBMSCs, and the osteogenic ability and Spry1 expression of the cells were detected, while real-time RT-PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression of osteogenic marker genes, Runx2 and Osterix. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with H-hBMSCs, PMOP-hBMSCs osteogenic ability was weakened significantly, miR-21 expression decreased, and Spry1 expression increased, indicating an inhibition to the miR-21-Spry1 function axis. Through the transfection of miR-21 and down-regulation of Spry1, the expression levels of Runx2 and Osterix were increased, and PMOP-hBMSCs osteogenic ability was partially restored.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have found that miR-21 expression is increased during osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, but the action and molecular mechanism of miR-21 are stil unclear. OBJECTIVE:To verify the target gene of miR-21, Spry1, and to explore the role of Spry1 in osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS:Luciferase report was used to verify Spry1 gene targeted by miR-21, and western blot assay was used to detect the expression of Spry1 in the osteogenesis of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Spry1 expression vector was established and transfected into human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Osteogenesis ability of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was analyzed after Spry1 high expression by alkaline phosphatase, alizarin red staining, RT-PCR and western blot. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Luciferase report suggested that Spry1 was a target gene of miR-21. The expression level of Spry1 was decreased in the osteogenesis of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Increasing expression of Spry1 could inhibit osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. These results indicate that Spry1 as a target gene of miR-21 negatively regulates osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, and plays an important role in bone formation process.
