Objective To compare the effects of platelet rich fibrin(PRF)and concentrated growth factors(CGF)using Schwann cells as a pe?ripheral nerve model. Methods A total of 10 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 55 were randomly selected,and 10 mL venous blood was collected un?der aseptic conditions to prepare PRF and CGF. The cells were randomly divided into three groups,control group,PRF group and CGF group. The cell morphology was observed by inverted phase contrast microscope. The cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT assay. The secretion of nerve growth factor in supernatant was detected by enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay. Cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry. Results There was no significant difference of the morphology of cells in each group as observed under inverted phase contrast microscope. MTT results showed that the absorbance values of PRF group and CGF group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05). The secretion of nerve growth factor in the supernatant were significantly increased(P<0.05). The number of cells in S+G2M phase was significantly increased(P<0.01),but there was no significant difference between PRF group and CGF group. Conclusion Both PRF and CGF can promote proliferation of Schwann cells and increased the amount of nerve growth factor secretion ,but there is no significant difference between PRF and CGF in terms of improving cell proliferation and promoting nerve growth factor secretion.

To prepare recombinant human retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) by using the baculovirus expression system and to detect its immunogenicity, the fusion DNA fragment of secretory signal peptide SS64 and human RBP4 gene was subcloned into a baculovirus transfer vector pFastBac-dual(pFBd), and the corresponding recombinant transfer plasmid was transformed into E. coli strain DH10bac, after transposition recombinant shuttle bacmid was screened out. The logarithmic phase Sf9 cells were transfected with the recombinant bacmid and then the recombinant baculovirus containing hRBP4 expression box were generated. After amplification of recombinant baculovirus, the recombinant baculovirus seeds were obtained. To express human RBP4, logarithmic phase Sf9 cells were infected with the virus seeds and SDS-PAGE and Western blotting were used to detect and identify the expression. Finally, to prepare a batch of RBP4 protein, logarithmic phase Sf9 cells in suspension culture were infected with recombinant baculovirus seeds and the supernatant was harvested after 120 hours post-infection for purification. Finally for preparation of polyclonal antibody and evaluation of immunogenicity, the recombinant hRBP4 from insect cells and from E. coli were immunized rabbits. Restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing confirmed that the recombinant baculovirus transfer plasmid was constructed correctly, and subsequently recombinant RBP4-bacmid was generated successfully. SDS-PAGE and Western blotting analysis suggested that human RBP4 protein was highly expressed in Sf9 cells with the molecular weight of approximately 23 kDa. The recombinant RBP4 protein could be secreted into the medium efficiently, and the expression level was calculated amount of 100 mg/L. Finally the rabbit antiserum was harvested after recombinant RBP4 immunization, therein the titer of antiserum against baculovirus recombinant RBP4 is 1:100 000 whereas the titer of antiserum against E. coli recombinant RBP4 is only 1:10 000. Overall, human RBP4 was high efficiently expressed successfully with good antigenicity in baculovirus system, and high affinity antiserum was obtained. A solid foundation was laid for the next step of the preparation of human serum RBP4 detection kit.

This paper reviews the clinical researches on acupuncture and moxibustion and Tuina therapy for hemiplegia, due to cerebral apoplexy. It is found that acupuncture and Tuina therapy mainly includes acupuncture, moxibustion, massage, electroacupuncture, as well as the combination of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, acupuncture and massage therapy or the combination of modern rehabilitation technics. The researches showed that all treatments have good clinical effect and few adverse reactions. However, most of the researches focus on self-control, and lacks comparability. There stilllacks strict RCT and unified standard of operation scheme. Besides, the researches on the mechanism should be strengthened.

Objective: To investigate the methods and short-time clinical results of reconstruction of Paprosky type Ⅲ acetabulum bone defects by using tantalum augments. Methods: A total of 17 patients (17 hips) with Paprosky type Ⅲ acetabulum bone defects, treated with tantalum augments in revision of total hip arthroplasty at Department of Orthopedics Surgery in General Hospital of Chinese People′s Liberation Army were retrospectively analyzed from March 2014 to May 2016.There were 6 males and 11 females aged from 23 to 74 years with an average of (50.2±16.3) years. Tantalum augments or TM-Cup augment (the cup-on-cup technique) were used to reconstruct the defects.The TM-Cup augment was the tantalum revision cup which was removed titanium ring. The cup-on-cup technique combined TM-Cup augment and biological acetabulum cup. Augments were served as the nonresorptive structural allograft in revision of total hip arthroplasty. Harris hip score was used to evaluate clinical effects. The vertical position of the rotation center was measured and analyzed. Radiographic assessments of the acetabular components were performed by DeLee-Charnley and the Anderson criteria and recorded postoperative complications. Results: All the patients were followed up from 3 to 29 months with an average of (16.2±5.4) months, tantalum augments and biological acetabulum cup were used in 13 patients, the TM-Cup augment and biological acetabulum cup were used in 4 patients. At the time of the latest follow-up, the mean Harris hip score increased compared to preoperatively (86.8±8.3 vs. 30.0±12.0) (t=12.78, P<0.01), the average vertical location of the center of rotation was decreased ((25.3±9.8) mm vs.(47.6±10.5)) mm (t=4.95, P<0.01). All the tantalum augments and biological acetabulum cups were stable, there were no infection, dislocation and other complications. Conclusions The use of tantalum augments could be considered as an effective management of Paprosky type Ⅲ defects providing good clinical and radiographic outcomes in the short term.The cup-on-cup technique which was used in reconstruction of severe superior-invagination acetabular bone defects and restoration relatively normal center of rotation had special application value.
