BACKGROUND:Previous studies have reported that rapamycin can affect the proliferation, migration and adhesion abilities of endothelial progenitor cels, but there is no report on the effect of autophagy, as wel as the interaction between autophagy and apoptosis. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of rapamycin activated autophagy activation on the proliferation, apoptosis, and cycle of endothelial progenitor cels. METHODS:Density gradient centrifugation was used to obtain mononuclear cels from bone marrow, and the mononuclear cels were inoculated on human fibronectin-coated culture plate.Then after cultured for 7 days the adherent cels colected were the endothelial progenitor cels. Different concentrations of rapamycin (0.01, 0.1, 1 and 10 μg/L) were added and cultured for 24 hours. Western blot was used to detect the LC3-II protein expression and monitor the induction of autophagy, flow cytometry was used to observe the cel cycle progression and apoptosis changes, and methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide colorimetric assay was used to observe the proliferation ability. Meanwhile, the ultrastructural changes were observed under transmission electron microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, there was no significant increasing of LC3-II protein expression of endothelial progenitor cels in 0.01 μg/L rapamycin group, and the LC3-II protein expression was in the high level. The LC3-IIprotein expression in the 1 μg/L and 10 μg/L rapamycin groups was higher than that in the control group, but lower than that in the 0.01 μg/L rapamycin group, which indicated that autophagywas particularly active when the concentration of rapamycin was 0.01 μg/L. The apoptosis of endothelial progenitor cels was increased with the increasing of concentration of rapamycin, and the proliferation rate was decreased with the increasing of concentration of rapamycin. The results indicate that activation of autophagy by bapamycin can promote the cel apoptosis, change the cel cycle significantly, and can inhibit the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cels.

Objective To evaluate and compare the clinical effects of proximal femoral nail antirotation blade (PFNA) with reverse less invasive stabilization system-distal femur (LISS) in the treatment of proximal femoral fractures associated with coxa vara. Methods From June 2007 to June 2010, A retrospective study with more than 10 months follow-up of 46 patients with proximal femoral fractures associated with coxa vara underwent PFNA or reverse LISS were carried out, including 24 with PFNA and 22 patients with reverse LISS. The physical status of patient was evaluated according to the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score. After the operation, the operation duration and volume of blood loss were assessed in the two groups, respectively. At the last follow-up, full weight bearing time, fracture healing time, and neck-shaft angle discrepancy related to contralateral side without fracture of the each group were assessed, respectively.Functional recovery was evaluated according to Parker and Palmer mobility score. Results The average follow-up period was 11.2 months (range, 10-12). All the fractures healed successfully and reached bony union.There were no significant differences between PFNA group and reverse LISS group for the average ASA score, the average operating time, the average volume of intraoperative bleeding and Parker and Palmer mobility score. The patients were allowed full weight-bearing from 9.33 weeks after surgery in PFNA group and from 16.95 weeks in reverse LISS group. The patients reached bony union after 17.21 weeks after surgery in PFNA group and from 30.73 weeks in reverse LISS group. Comparing with PFNA group, neck-shaft angle discrepancy decreased in reverse LISS group. Conclusion The results of PFNA and reverse LISS in the treatment of proximal femoral fracture were satisfactory. The fracture treated by PFNA allowed earlier weight bearing. Reverse LISS could provide better support for neck-shaft angle to avoid coxa vara more effectively.

BACKGROUND:Osteoarthritis animal models induced by papain are commonly used for studying osteoarthritis.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the morphology of articular cartilage surface during early osteoarthritis process in rats induced by papain and L-cysteine under scanning electron microscope.
METHODS:The right knees of Sprague-Dawley rats were given 0.15 mL mixed solution of 2%papain and 0.03 mol/L L-cysteine in the ratio of 2:1. The left knees were given injections of 0.15 mL 0.9%NaCl, as the control group. Another two rats (four knees) maintained untreated, as the normal control group. Al the rats were observed with scanning electron microscope at 2, 4, 6 weeks after injection, to explore the surface morphology of medial condyle of femur.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The condyles of normal and control groups revealed numerous shal ow pits on the surface of articular cartilage. At 2 weeks after injection, the surfaces of condyles were unsmooth, presenting the shrinkage and distortion. The thinner articular cartilage and local tiny cracks were seen at 4 weeks. The deep and great cracks and cartilage defect were observed on the surface of cartilage at 6 weeks. The time of 4-6 weeks is a reference point for establishing early osteoarthritis model in rats through injections of 2%papain and 0.03 mol/L L-cysteine.
