Objective To explore the effects of upper limb robot-assisted therapy on motor function and activities of daily living in con-valescent stroke patients. Methods From June to September, 2016, 12 chronic stroke patients at their first-ever stroke were enrolled and ran-domized into experimental group (n=6) and control group (n=6). Both groups received routine rehabilitation. Additional robot-assisted thera-py was provided to the experimental group, and additional repetitive movement training was provided to the control group, 20 minutes a day, five days a week for four weeks. Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE), modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and Func-tional Independent Measure (FIM) were used to assess the motor function of the upper limbs and hands, the muscular tension of shoulder and elbow, and activities of daily living (ADL) before and after treatment. Results After treatment, the scores of FMA-UE and FIM were bet-ter in both groups (Z>2.032, P<0.05), and no significant difference was found between two groups (t<0.723, P>0.05), however, the scores were a little bit higher in the experimental group than in the control group. After treatment, for the experimental group, the MAS scores of shoulder abduction/adduction and elbow flexion/extension improved (Z>2.121, P<0.05);for the control group, the MAS scores of shoulder abduction/adduction improved (Z>2.000, P<0.05), but the MAS scores of elbow flexion/extension were not significantly different (Z<1.890,P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the MAS scores of shoulder abduction/adduction and elbow flexion/extension between two group (Z<1.734, P>0.05). The moving trail recorded by the computer, gradually became a regular pattern from the mass, saying the motor control ability became better. Conclusion Upper limb robot-assisted therapy can promote the recovery of the motor function of upper limbs and ADL in convalescent stroke patient, similar to the repetitive movement training.

Objective To investigate the protective mechanism of hyaluronic acid (HA) antagonistic to nitmprusside sodium (SNP) on the tissue engineering cartilage. Methods Alginate culture for two weeks was used to recover phenotype of dedifferentiated chondrocytes. Differentiation state of chondrecytes was analyzed by immunostaining. The growth of alginate-recovered chondrocytes on the chitosan-based scaffold was observed by scanning electron microscope. After cultured for 3 weeks, this tissue engineering cartilage was treated with SNP in the absence or presence of HA combined with specific β1 integrin blocking antibody collagen type Ⅱ and aggreean were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results Collagen type Ⅱ expression in dedifferentiated chondrocytes was significantly enhanced by alginate bead culture. The chitosan-based scaffold supported cell adhesion, proliferation and migration. A dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the expression of collagen type Ⅱ and aggrecan was observed when tissue engineering cartilage was treated with SNP alone. HA significantly promoted collagen type Ⅱ, and aggrecan expression antagonistic to low concentrations of SNP (p<0.05). However, the specific β1,integrin blocking antibody abrogated the effects of HA. Conclusion Alginate culture recovers the phenotype of dedifferentiated chondrocytes. HA abrogats the inhibitory effect of SNP via β1 integrin signal pathway to protect tissue engineering cartilage.

Objective To observe the influence of intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate (HA) on mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) -1, -3 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 in cartilage and synovium of osteoarthritis (OA) . Methods Sixteen white rabbits underwent unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transection and were divided into 2 groups randomly 5 weeks after transection. Experimental group rabbits received 0.3 ml of intra-articular 1% HA injection once a week. Animals in control group were treated under the same condition using saline. At death, 10 weeks following surgery, histological changes of articular cartilage of medial femoral condyle were evaluated by microscopy. The mRNA expression of MMP-1, MMP-3 and TIMP-1 in cartilage and synovium was analyzed using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) . Results Cartilage degradation in experimental group was significantly less severe than that in the control group. The expression of MMP-3 mRNA in synovium was significantly suppressed in experimental group compared with the control group (0.40?0.10 vs 0.62?0.13). HA treatment had no effect on MMP-3 expression in cartilage. No significant difference of MMP-1 and TIMP-1 expression in cartilage and synovium was found between experimental group and control group. Conclusion HA can alleviate the degeneration of articular cartilage of OA. One possible mechanism of the therapeutic effect of HA may be inhibition of expression of MMP-3 in synovium during early stage of OA.

Objective To study the influence of carboxymethyl-chitosan (CM-chitosan) on phenotype and proliferation of chondrocytes stimulated by recombinant human interleukin-1? (rhIL-1?), and explore its mechanism. Methods Chondrocytes were isolated and cultured. 10 ng/ml IL-1? with or without CM-chitosan of varied concentrations were added into the culture medium. After 24 h, changes of proliferative ability of chondrocytes were tested by MTT and flow cytometry. Proteoglycan synthesis was measured by incorporation of Na235SO4 into chondrocytes, nitric oxide (NO) production was detected by Greiss reaction, mRNA expression of typeⅠ、Ⅱcollagens, Aggrecan and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) were examined by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results CM-chitosan could significantly antagonize IL-1?-induced inhibitory effect on proliferation of chondrocytes, restore proteoglycan synthesis of chondrocytes, decrease NO production of IL-1?-induced chondrocytes, increase the mRNA expression of typeⅡcollagen and Aggrecan, but decrease the expression of typeⅠcollagen and iNOS. The effects of CM-chitosan were in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion CM-chitosan can maintain the proliferation and phenotype of IL-1?-induced chondrocytes.
