BACKGROUND:Long course of treatment and complications limit the extensive application of distraction osteogenesis, which cannot meet the clinical requirements. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of general administration of eucommia alcohol extract on new bone regeneration based on the rabbit model of mandibular distraction osteogenesis. METHODS:Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. Unilateral mandibular distraction osteogenesis model was established by 1 mm/12 h distraction protocol. During the distraction period, the rabbits in the experimental group were intragastricaly administered with eucommia alcohol extract and the control animals received the same amount of physiological saline, respectively. Six weeks later, the animals were sacrificed for osteogenic testing. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: New bone formation was observed in the distracted gap in both groups. However, the amount, mineralization and biomechanical strength of new regenerated bone in the experimental group were obviously greater than those in the control group by histological observation, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, micro-CT and biomechanical test. General administration of eucommia alcohol extract can markedly promote distraction osteogensis in rabbit mandibular osteodistraction.

Objective To evaluate the impact of hydrogen sulfide signal system during the process of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal cells osteogenesis under tensile stress. Methods After the H2S signal system of cell rooms regulated by tool drugs (Group A with propargylglycine;Goup B with PBS;Group C with GYY3147), 4 000 μ strain tensile stress were applied on rat BMMCs by four-point bending apparatus for 60 minutes. Four hours later, the H2S signal system and cystathionine-γ-lyase were detected. Meanwhile, the change of the alkaline phosphate, osteocalcin, procollagen typeⅠN-terminal propeptide, and runt-related transcription factor 2 mRNA level were also examined to evaluate the osteogenic ability. Results With the increase of H2S expression, the osteogenic capacity gradually increased, while the osteogenic capacity was compromised after the endogenous cystathionine-γ-lyase was inhibited. Conclusion The H2S signal system plays an important role during BMMCs osteogensis under tensile stress. The up-regulation expression of H2S may promote osteogenesis during distraction osteogenesis.

Objective To compare the blood high mobility group box-1 (HMGB-l) versus N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) for assessment of cardiac dysfunction in the patients with severe sepsis.Methods Ninety-eight patients of both sexes,aged 18-75 yr,were divided into 3 groups according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF):non-cardiac dysfunction group (LVEF ≥ 50 %,n =43),mild cardiac dysfunction group (30% ≤ LVEF < 50%,n =41),and severe cardiac dysfunction group (LVEF < 30%,n =14).Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score was performed.Venous blood samples were obtained for determination of the concentrations of HMGB-1 and NT-proBNP.Days of hospitalization and the survival rates within 28 days after admission to hospital were recorded.Pearson correlation between blood HMGB-l,NT-proBNP concentrations and LVEF was analyzed.Results Compared with non-cardiac dysfunction group,LVEF was significantly decreased,APACHE Ⅱ score and blood HMGB-1 and NT-proBNP concentrations were increased,days of hospitalization were prolonged,and the survival rates were decreased in mild and severe cardiac dysfunction groups,and the changes in the parameters mentioned above were more obvious in severe cardiac dysfunction group.The correlation coefficient between blood HMGB-1 concentration and LVEF was -0.639 and between blood NT-proBNP concentration and LVEF was-0.521,showing significant difference.Conclusion Blood HMGB-1 concentration provides higher reliability than blood NT-proBNP concentration in assessing the degree of cardiac dysfunction in the patients with severe sepsis.
