1.Research Progress in Differentiation of Osteoblasts by BMSCs after Intervention of Eucommiae Cortex
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;22(11):134-136
Eucommiae Cortex is one of the most common and effective traditional Chinese medicine to treat osteoporosis, whose mechanism of action on BMSCs has gradually been confirmed. BMSCs are pluripotent precursor cells of the osteoblast and the osteoclast. In addition to a multi-directional differentiation potential, BMSCs are also characterized of immune suppressive regulating function. This article is a review about the research on differentiation of osteoblasts by BMSCs, which provides a new thinking for further research.

Objective To explore the imaging and pathological characteristics of the telangiectatic osteosarcoma.Methods The clinical,imaging and pathological data of telangiectatic osteosareoma in 12 cases were analysed.Results The tumors often located at the diaphysialepiphysial of the os longum and most of them were occured at the lower limb,increasing of the alkaline phosphatase(AKP) was rare.X-ray and CT character istics were osteoclastic and expensive bony destruction;there were multiple small cystic formation and fluid-fluid level in the destructive region and soft masess;the cortex of the bone became thinner with multiple sieve type destruction;the periosteal reaction and radial bone spicule were often seen.Pathological characteristics were of typical tumor cell of the osteosarcoma,mutliple sinus of the blood and "color bland shape" component.Conclusion The telangiectatic osteosarcoma has certain specific clinical,imaging and histologyical characteristics.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect and Practical value of percutaneous vertebroplasty using China-made bone cement. Methods Under CT or C-arm X-ray machine guided, 22 cases with vertebral osteoporotic compression fracture, hemangeoma orosteolytic carcinoma were treated by perfusion of China-made bone cement through percutaneous puncture. Results Thirty vertebraes in 22 cases were operated by percutaneous vertebroplasty and the successful rate was 100%. The symptoms in 21 cases were remarkably released, the clinical effective rate was 95.5%. During the operation, bone cement leakage occurred in 23.3% of the treated vertebrae, but no serious untoward effect appeared. Conclusion The application of China-made bone cement in percutaneous vertebroplasty is of the features of minimal invasion, safty and remarkable curative effect. It can release pain and consolidate the vertebrae.
