Objective To investigate the biocompatibility between collagen- polyglycolic acid (PGA) and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in vitro to provide some experimental basis for further study in tendon tissue engineering. Methods MSCs were isolated, cultured and characterized. In the experimental group the MSCs were cultured in DMEM containing type-I collagen and PGA suture, and in the control group the MSCs were cultured in DMEM. The cell growth was compared between the two groups, and the cell ultramicroscopic structure of experimental group was observed. Results MSCs grew well in the collagen-PGA scaffold, and 2 weeks after incubation they still kept secretion potential and more than cell 89% vitality, which were not significantly different compared with the control group. There is no statistical difference in the MSCs count in the experimental group during 2 weeks culture, while in the control group MSCs began to proliferate at the 4th day after culture. Conclusion Collagen-PGA has a good biocompatibility with mesenchymal stem cells. It is possible to fabricate a tissue-engineered tendon in vitro using mesenchymal stem cells as seed cells and collagen-PGA as scaffold.

AIM : To observe the effect of stress and ovariectomy on behavior activity in mice and the prevention and therapy of the TCM complexⅠcomposed of spine date seed and common anemarrhena rhizome. METHODS : The effect of stress and ovariectomy were investigated on bedtime, survival time under hypoxia, climbing time on the string and number of times of the activity in mice, and the prevention and therapy of TCM the complexⅠwere observed. RESULTS : The effect of stress, ovariectomy, stress and ovariectomy were different on bedtime, survival time under hypoxia and climbing time on the string and the number of times of the activity in mice. The effect of stress and ovariectomy on previous parameters was stronger than that of stress or ovariectomy lonely in mice. The stress and ovariectomy resulted in sleep impairment, the decreasing of the survival time under hypoxia and climbing time on the string, and the increasing of the number of times of the activity in mice. CONCLUSION : The TCM complex I can alleviate the high sensitivity to the environment in mice with ovariectomy and stress, which is similar to the mechanism of human climacteric syndrome.

Objective To observe the effects of repeated immobilization on rats ovarian function and to observe the changes of ovarian function in menopause animals.Methods Daily vaginal smears were permfored to follow the estrous cycle in adult female rats.The animals with regular cycle were exposed to the scheduled daily repeated immobilization for 15-day,which included 5 stress episodes with each episode consisting of three immobilizations (one time per day). The duration of immobilization was progressively increased with the subsequent episode. Serum levels of estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) were measured throughout the estrous cycle before and after the stress.Results The repeated stress resulted in the disruption of the estrous cycle characterized by longer phase of diestrus or by fewer epithelium from vagina in proestrus and estrus.In the stressed rats, a significant decrease of serum E2 and an increase of P were shown throughout the cycle compared to that before stress;the normal secretion cycle was interrupted or even disappeared; changes of serum P level in some rats were similar to the menopause animals.Conclusion Repeated immobilization can cause the disruption or degeneration of ovarian function,indicating that rats with stress-induced ovarian dysfunction is an appropriate animal model for testing protective effects of agents against aging and for the diseases related to ovarian dysfunction.

Objective:To purify a kind of deoxyribonuclease from earthworm Eisenia foetida (named earthworm DNase, EDNase) and study its characteristics. Methods: Acetone precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography, SDS-PAGE, CapiUary electrophoresis isoelectric focusing and MALDI-TOP MS were used for the study. Results: This purified protocol improved 137-fold purification and 45.6 % recovery of enzyme activity. The molecular mass of EDNase was estimated to be 63 000. Mg2+ , Mn2+ and Ca2+ were strong inhibitors of EDNase, while Na+ slightly increasd the enzyme activity. The enzyme was completely stable in the pH range from 4. 4 to 5.2 and had a pH optimum of 4.8. The optimum temperature was 37℃ and the enzyme was stable up to 40 ℃. The pI of the enzyme was 6. 20. Km and Vmax for the enzyme were 1.52 g/L and 4. 89 mg/(mL ·min), respectively, with calf thymus DNA as substrate. The enzyme was able to degrade chromosemal DNA, linear λbacteriophage DNA as well as supereoiled plasmid DNA, but didn' t display any RNase activity. Conclusion: This kind of deoxyribonuclease possesses unique characteristics, which is different from the deoxyribonucleases which we have known before.
