Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2014;(20):3127-3132
BACKGROUND:Construction of tissue engineering adult cardiac myocytes has been a new research hotspot in cardiovascular fields.
OBJECTIVE:To explore a simple, fast method for the separation of adult rat cardiomyocytes, and preliminarily explore the construction methods of tissue engineering adult cardiac myocytes.
METHODS:Segmented enzymatic digestion method was used to isolate cardiac myocytes from adult rats. Subsequently, cardiac myocytes were transfected with adenovirus and liposome-mediated red fluorescent protein gene. Construction efficiency of tissue engineering cells was qualified using inverted fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. Final y, cardiac myocytes were transfected with adenovirus-mediated hypoxia-inducible factor-1a, and the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1a was examined by western blot analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A lot of cardiac myocytes were col ected using the segmented enzyme digestion method. Flow cytometric analysis showed that the survival of adult cardiomyocytes was (87.03±0.70)%. Compared with liposomal transfection (transfection efficiency was 0), adenovirus infection efficiency was (70.31± 1.39)%, and the cells expressed red fluorescence under fluorescence microscope. After 4 days of adenovirus infection, transfected cells expressed hypoxia-inducible factor-1a protein. These results showed that segmented enzyme digestion is a fast way to isolate adult cardiac myocytes, and recombinant adenovirus vector is a good vector to transfect cardiac myocytes.

To study the clinicopathological and immunohistochemical characteristics of omental and mesenteric stromal tumor, 8 cases of stromal tumor were investigated, and followed up. The results showed that these tumors were solitary nodule, most were large. Histologically, cytoplasmic eosinophilia and perinuclear vacuolization were often seen in omental and mesenteric stromal tumor of spindle cell type. 3 cases showed epithelioid cytologic features. An immunohistochemical study showed that all the patients were C kit positive (100%),7 were CD34 positive, whereas 6 were SMA positive, positive expression of p53 and PCNA was found in 2 cases of malignant stromal tumor, Lower expression of PCNA was observed in 1 case of benign one.The results suggested that omental and mesenteric stromal tumors have distinct clinicopathological features, the expression of C kit and CD34 plays an important role in its diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of nuclear factor kappaB(NF-κB) and regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted chemokine(RANTES) during the formatiom of ascending aortic aneurysm. Methods Forty Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group(n=20) and the experimental group(n=20).The rat models were made by ligating the ascending aorta. The ascending aortas were taken after ligation for 3months. Immunohistochemistry staining was performed to detect the protein expression of NF-κB and RANTES. The expression of NF-κB and RANTES mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results Immunohistochemisry staining results showed NF-κB and RANTES expression significantly increased in aneurysm, while there was a little positive staining in the control group. RT-PCR results indicated that the expression levels of NF-κB and RANTES in the aneurysm were stonger than that of the control group. The expression of NF-κB and RANTES mRNA were remarkably correlated. Conclusion The expression of NF-κB and RANTES in ascendin aortic aneurysm are stronger than that in the control. NF-κB and RANTES may contribute to the pathogenesis of the ascending aortic aneurysm.
