To investigate the feasibility of using poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate as scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. Marrow stromal cells were harvested from New Zealand rabbit′s iliac bone. After being cultured and multiplied in vitro,with the use of dexamethasone to promote the osteoblastic phenotype of the cells, the cells were seeded into poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate. The cells/ poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate construction was implanted subcutaneously in nude mice. In control animals, poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate alone was implanted. Osteogenesis was assessed by histological and roentgenographic analysis. Four weeks after implantation, osteoid tissue had been observed in the specimens of the composite; 8 weeks after implantation, large amount of new bone had been found, and lamellar bone had been observed also. In the control, only fibrous tissue had been found. It suggested that poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate can be used as a scaffold material for bone tissue engineering.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of mirtazapine combined with citalopram in the treat-ment of sleep disorder in depressive patients. METHODS:One hundred and sixty-five depressive patients with sleep disorder were selected and divided into control group (82 cases) and treatment group (83 cases) according to random number table. Control group took Escitalopram oxalate tablet 10 mg,once every night,increasing to 20 mg according to disease condition;treatment group was additionally given Mirtazapine tablet 15 mg,once every night,increasing to 30 mg one week later. Both groups re-ceived treatment for consecutive 6 months. HAMD-17 and MADRS were observed in 2 groups before and after treatment,and the sleep quality of 2 groups were evaluated by PSQI before and after treatment;the sleep structure was measured by using polysom-nography before and after treatment;clinical efficacies and the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in HAMD-17,MADRS and PSQI score,sleep structure between 2 groups (P>0.05);after treatment,above scores and indexes of 2 groups were all improved significantly,and the treatment group was sig-nificantly better than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Total response rate of treatment group was 97.47%, which was significantly higher than 78.95%of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical signif-icance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Citalopram combined with mirtazapine shows sig-nificant therapeutic efficacy for sleep disorder of depressive patients,and can significantly improve sleep structure,adjust sleep cy-cle and improve sleep quality with good safety.

Objective To investigate the effects of low frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on motor function and excitability of motor cortex in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and to study the mechanism of PD from the electrophysiology. Methods Twenty-eight patients with PD received 1 Hz rTMS therapy for 15 d. Thirty normal volunteers were enrolled as controls. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and motor evoked potential (MEP) were adopted as assessment indicators. The excitability of motor cortex was assessed by rest motor threshold (RMT), central motor conduction time (CMCT) and the amplitude of MEP. Results The initial RMTs and CMCTs of PD patients were significantly lower than those of the controls, but MEP amplitudes were not significantly different. After rTMS treatment, motor function of PD patients improved, RMTs increased and CMCTs prolonged. Conclusion In PD patients, motor function disorder and increased motor cortical excitability were observed. Low frequency rTMS may inhibit these changes to some extent.

Objective To investigate the immunomodulatory effects and the mechanism of interferon (IFN)-γ-pretreated adult autologous adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) on peripheral blood lymphocytes. Methods ADSCs were obtained from adult subcutaneous adipose tissues. IFN-γ with and without pretreated ADSCs were used as IFN-γ-pretreated group and IFN-γ-unpretreated group, which were cultured with autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) at different concentrations of ADSCs-to-PBMCs ratios in presence of concomitant phytohemagglutinin (PHA)/interleukin (IL)-2 stimulation. After 5 days of culture, the proliferatory inhibitory rate of activated T cells, the percentage of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Treg), and the expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) mRNA were assessed. Results ADSCs were isolated from autologous adipose tissue, which strongly expressed CD73, CD90, and CD105, as well as displayed adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation. The percentage of CD4+CD25+Treg was significantly higher in IFN-γ-pretreated group than that of IFN-γ-unpretreated group. The expression level of IDO mRNA in ADSCs was significantly increased in IFN-γ-pretreated group than that of IFN-γ-unpretreated group. The proliferation inhibition of activated T cells was significantly decreased in IDO-blocker group than that of IFN-γ-pretreated group (P < 0.01). Conclusion These results suggest that IFN-γ can promote immunosuppressive effects of ADSCs on activated T cells through increased expression of IDO.
