Objective To develop new methods to cultivate, retrieve and purify mouse mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs). Methods Bone marrow was collected from 2-month-old Kunming mice by flushing femurs and tibias with complete medium of DMEM-LG. Cells were plated in a Petri dish. After 24 hours, non-adherent cells were removed by two to three washes with PBS, adherent cells were further cultured in complete medium and retrieved by trypsinisation with 0.25% trypsin for 5 min at 37 ℃. The treated adherent cells were cultivated with 3?dilution for further generations. CD11b-negative cells were retrieved from the collected adherent cells of 3rd generation by using immunomagnetic microbeads, and continued to be cultured in complete medium. After the cultured cells were retrieved, their morphology and their ability of osteoblastic differentiation and adipocytic differentiation were examined. Results Most of mMSCs from 1st generation were of shuttle shape, some of irregular shape. After treatment with magnetic microbeads and several generations, mMSCs were of spindle, star and irregular shape. These cells were of rich cytoplasma, clear nucleolus, and grew in parallel or vortex. The cultured adherent cells from the first and subsequent generations had plenty of CD11b-positive blooding-making cells. After 20-day osteoblastic induction, mMSCs differentiated into bone cells, which showed orange phosphate in extracellular matrix by Alizarin red S staining. mMSCs could differentiate into lipocytes. The size of cells increased along with fat-developing induction period. These cells showed many orange fatty follicles with O Red Oil dyeing. Conclusion Pure mMSCs can not be retrieved by either adhering method or generation cultivation method separately. The combined methods of adhering, immunomagnetic microbeads, and serial subcultivation is effective in vitro in retrieve mMSCs.

Objectives To assess if visual analogue scale(VAS) or Likert scale was relatively more suitable when measuring self-reported clinical outcomes for apoplexy spastic-paralysis patients.Methods Nineteen questions were made from the serf-evaluating instrument based on patient reported outcomes for apoplexy spasticparalysis patients developed previously in cross-sectional study.104 patients answered the questions by both continuous and discrete visual analogue scale(VAS),while other 110 patients by both five-point Likert scales and Likert-typo scales.Cronbach'sαfor internal consistency reliability,spearman for correlation,and exploratory factor analysis for construct validity were applied.Results Except for emotional domain,the α coefficients of physical domain,social domain and overall score with continuous and discrete VAS are higher than that with five-point Likert scales and Likert-type scales.Internal consistency reliability was stronger for VAS.lntraclass correlation coefficients were above 0.4 mostly for each item with its domain,and VAS may produce the higher correlation.For VAS,there were three factors in the exploratory factor analysis,which confirmed the domain hypotheses of physical,mental and social functions,but for the Likert scales,the result was undesiable.Conclusion The more accurate for the response options,the better for the performance.When the patient can complete the measurement without the help of others,VAS seems better suited.
