As a novel concept for cell delivery,cell sheet may retain the extracellular matrix and adhesive proteins,avoid the use of bioma-terials for delivery,and increase cell survival rate while reduce cell loss following cell transplantation.This review summarizes the use of cell sheet technology for periodontal and pulp-dentin complex regeneration,highlights recent progresses and future challenges in this field.

Along with recent advances in biological signal molecule and tissue engineering technology,periodontal regeneration has been gained more and more new opportunities,but also faces many challenges.This paper briefly reviewes the preclinical and clinical studies of periodontal tissue regeneration,highlighting the latest achievement and progress in the clinical study of biological signal molecules and stem cell therapy in the treatment of periodontal disease worldwide.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal CLP257 on the bone cancer pain in rats.Methods Forty adult female Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 180-200 g,were divided into 4 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),bone cancer pain group (group BCP),dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group,and CLP257 group.Bone cancer pain was induced by inoculating Walker 256 mammary gland carcinoma cell suspension (about 1× 105cells) 10 μl into the medullary cavity of the left tibia.On 7th-9th days after establishment of the model,5％ DMSO 10 μl was injected intrathecally once a day in group DMSO,and 10 μg/μl CLP257 10 μl was injected intrathecally once a day in group CLP257.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) was measured on 1 day before establishment of the model (T0),on 1st-6th days after establishment of the model (T1-6),and at 4 h after intrathecal administration on 7th-9th days after establishment of the model (T7-9).After the last intrathecal administration,the L4-6 segments of the spinal cord were removed for determination of the expression of potassium chloride cotransporter 2 (KCC2) protein and mRNA by Western blot and fluorescent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction,respectively.Results Compared with group S,the MWT was significantly decreased,and the expression of KCC2 protein and mRNA was down-regulated in BCP and DMSO groups,and the MWT was significantly decreased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the expression of KCC2 protein and mRNA in group CLP257 (P＞0.05).Compared with group BCP,the MWT was significantly increased,and the expression of KCC2 protein and mRNA was up-regulated in group CLP257 (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group DMSO (P＞0.05).Conclusion Intrathecal CLP257 can attenuate the bone cancer pain in rats.

Objective To investigate the expression of lncRNA SNHG8 in placenta accrete(PA)and its effect on trophoblast invasion and migration.Methods qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of lncRNA SNHG8 in placenta tissue of 30 cases in PA group and 30 cases in control group,and the correlation between lncRNA SNHG8 expression and prenatal ultrasound score of 30 cases in PA group was analyzed.Transwell and scratch assay were used to detect the effect of lncRNA SNHG8 interference on the invasion and migration of human chorionic trophoblast cells(HTR8/SVneo cells),and western blot was used to detect the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9.The downstream targets of lncRNA SNHG8 were predicted by StarBase software,and the expression of lncRNA SNHG8 was detected in placental tissues of the two groups.Dual luciferase reporter assay was used to detect the targeting relationship between lncRNA SNHG8 and miR-542-3p.Results Compared with that of the control group,the expression of lncRNA SNHG8 was up-regulated in the placenta tissue of the PA group(P<0.05),and it was positively correlated with prenatal ultrasound score.Interference with lncRNA SNHG8 inhibited the invasion and migration of trophoblast cells(P<0.05);the protein expression of MMP-9 and MMP-2 also decreased signifi-cantly(P<0.05).Biological prediction indicates that miR-542-3p had a binding site with lncRNA SNHG8,and miR-542-3p expression was down-regulated in PA placental tissue(P<0.05).Dual luciferase reporter assay confirmed that lncRNA SNHG8 could target miR-542-3p.Compared with si-SNHG8+inhibitor-NC,co-transfection of si-SNHG8 and miR-542-3p inhibitor enhanced the invasion and migration ability of trophoblast cells(P<0.05).Conclusion lncRNA SNHG8 is highly expressed in PA and is related to the severity of PA.LncRNA SNHG8 promotes the invasion and migration of trophoblast by regulating the level of miR-542-3p.The study suggests that lncRNA SNHG8 plays an important role in the invasion and migration of PA trophoblast cells,which is expected to be a clinical diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target.

With basal medium, we studied the growth status, lipid droplet distribution, total lipid content of Chlorella protothecoides CS-41 treated with different concentrations of sodium chloride (0, 150, 300 and 600 mmol/L) by optical microscopy, electron microscopy, confocal laser focusing and Nile red staining. Results show that the addition of NaCl affected the growth of Chlorella protothecoides CS-41. With the increase of NaCl concentration, the growth rate of Chlorella was inhibited. Chlorella cell wall became thicker, and lipid droplets increased. At the early stage, the amount of lipid droplets in the 600 mmol/L NaCl culture was the highest, but at the late-log stage, the amount of lipid droplets increased with the increase of the biomass of culture in 150 and 300 mmol/L NaCl culture. At the stable stage, biomass (dry weight) in 300 mmol/L NaCl culture was 73.55% of that in the control, but the total lipid content was 2.22 times higher than that in the control. A certain concentration of sodium chloride treatment can significantly increase the lipid content of Chlorella protothecoides CS-41.
