BACKGROUND:The type B synoviocytes induced by transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1) have the potential to differentiate into chondrocyte,which can remain the phenotype in vitro. However,whether the transfected cell combined with scaffold can form cartilage tissues need further research. OBJECTIVE:Rabbit type B synoviocytes was transfected by liposome method in vitro,combined the cells with Pluronic-F127,and then implanted into nude mouse to construct tissue engineering cartilage. Additionally,to explore the feasibility of synoviocytes differentiate into chondrocytes.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The randomized animal experiment of cytology observation. The experiment was performed at the Medical Research Center,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between April 2007 and May 2008.MATERIALS:Healthy New Zealand white rabbits,aged 3 months,and 12 BALB/c nude mice,aged 4 weeks,weighted 20 g.METHODS:The synovial membrane tissues were taken out from the rabbit knee,isolated by enzyme digestion,and then transfected. The positive cloning was screened by G418,and the expression of TGF-β1 and collagen Ⅱ was detected. The Pluronic-F127 was dissolved at 4℃ and prepared fluid with concentration of 30%. The fluid was mixed with cells. At the same time,there were 2 groups as the control group:chondrocytes with Pluronic-F127,and synoviocytes transfeced by pcDNA3.1(+)and Pluronic-F127. The cell density was 5x1010/L. Each compound (0.2 mL) was injected into the subcutaneous of the nude mouse back. Rats were sacrificed at weeks 4,6 and 8 to harvest samples.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Cell growth curve;phenotype change of the cells after transfection;histological observation of the tissue in the subcutaneous of the nude mouse back. RESULTS:Cell growth curve demonstrated that the living activity of the transfected cells was temporary decreased,which returned into normal level at days 6,7 after transfection. At day 4 after transfection,TGF β1 were positive expressed,and at day 7,the collagen Ⅱ staining were positive. The compounds in the subcutaneous of the nude mouse back formed immature chondroid tissues at week 4,which turned to mature chondroid tissue at week 8,and the collagen Ⅱ staining were positive.CONCLUSION:The transfected synoviocytes can express the phenotype of chondrocytes in vitro,and form chondrocyte-likecells. The transfected synoviocytes with Pluronic-F127 can form chondroid tissues in nude mice.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the exerted force in different phases of the female menstrual cycle, as well as the changes in estrogen (E2), osteocalcin (OCN), receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL), and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) during orthodontic tooth movement, to provide a theoretical basis for the selection of the best opportunity for efficient tooth movement.

METHODSTwelve women (aged 18 years to 28 years) with extracted first premolars had been selected. Six women in the group were randomly selected as the menstrual period group, whereas the remaining six were assigned to the ovulation period group. Right canines were retracted with 1.5 N NiTi close coil spring. GCF samples were collected prior to the force exertion experiments at 0 (T0), 15 (T1), 30 (T2), and 45 d (T3). The levels of E2, OCN, OPG and RANKL in GCF were measured by chemiluminescence and enzymelinked immunosorbent assay.

RESULTSThe E2 and OCN levels were significantly higher in the ovulation period group than in the menstrual period group (P < 0.05). No significant differences were found in RANKL and OPG levels between the two groups (P > 0.05). Finally, no significant difference was found in RANKL/OPG ratio between the two groups (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONExerted force on teeth during the menstrual period may promote rapid tooth movement.

The TCM theory over body constitution has been greatly developed in the past several decades.However,the body constitution for children still lacks a standard classification.Available studies often ignored the impacts of the factors,such as region,climate and diet,on the body constitution of children.Given this situation,the present review focused on the research progress on the discipline of TCM body constitution and its classification and differentiation in Chinese children,and put forward the development on this issue based on current state policy and our own research experience.It was suggested that scholars develop a well-recognized classification method for the TCM body constitution for children in a particular region before investigating interventions according to TCM body constitution.
