BACKGROUND:Human amniotic epithelial cells have some properties of stem cells, which can be induced to differentiate into corneal epithelial cells, but cannot be tracedin vitro. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility and infection efficiency of adenovirus vector carrying enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) into the human amniotic epithelial cells. METHODS:The adenovirus vectors carrying EGFP was transferred into human amniotic epithelial cells culturedin vitro. After cultured and amplified, the morphology difference between transfected and non-transfected human amniotic epithelial cels was observed. The transfected human amniotic epithelial cells were observed under fluorescence microscope, and the cell cycle and the expression rate of EGFP in transfected human amniotic epithelial cells were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No obvious difference in the cell morphology was found between transfected human amniotic epithelial cells and normal human amniotic epithelial cells cultured in vitro. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the EGFP positive rate was highest and reached up to 99.01% at 48 hours after transient transfection. The cell cycle of human amniotic epithelial cells transfected by the adenovirus vector was slowed a bit. To conclude, the adenovirus vector is a good medium of transfecting EGFP into human amniotic epithelial cells, and makes it more convenient to observe the further transformation of human amniotic epithelial celsin vitro.

Objective To study the effects of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) on the proliferation and gene expression profiles of rabbit articular chondrocytes in vitro after different time periods of stimulation.Methods The chondrocytes were isolated and cultured in vitro,and the 3rd generation cells were harvested.Cells were divided into three groups.In the group 1 (FGF2 short-time action group),chondrocytes were cultured in medium with FGF2 for one day,and then transferred to fresh culture medium without FGF2 and cultured for another 6 days.In the group 2 (FGF2 long-time action group),chondrocytes were cultured in medium with FGF2 for 7 days.In the Group 3 (control group),chondrocytes were cultured in culture medium without FGF2 for 7 days.After culture for 1,3,and 7 days,the proliferation of chondrocytes in the all groups was detected respectively.Following extraction of mRNA,the gene expressions of BMP2,BMP4,SOX9 and COL2A1 of the chondrocytes in the all groups were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).The content of type Ⅱ collagen was measured via immunofluorescence staining.Results Compared with the control group,FGF2 promoted the proliferation of chondrocytes in the short-and long-time action groups and there was no significant difference between the two FGF2-treated groups.The results of qRT-PCR indicated that different treatment induced different gene expression profile.Particularly,compared with the control group and the FGF2 long-time action group,the expression of BMP2,BMP4,SOX9 and COL2A1 in the short-time action group were significantly upregulated at the 7th day.Immunofluorescence intensity of type Ⅱ collagen in the group 1 was stronger than that in the control group and group 2.Conclusions Different administration of FGF2 for different time periods induced different responses of chondrocytes.Short-term FGF2 stimulation was more beneficial to maintain the phenotype of chondrocytes and the synthesis of extracellular matrix.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value and significance of myocardial injury markers in neonates.Methods A retrospective analysis of 838 cases of myocardial injury markers in neonates,the total positive rate of hs -cTnI and the positive rates of hs -cTnI(hypersensitivity cardiac troponin I)in different kinds of neonatal disease were calculated,the levels of abnormalities consistent rate in hs -cTnI and CK -MBmass(creatine kinase MB mass)were compared with hs -cTnI and MYO(Myoglobin).Results The total positive rate of hs -cTnI was 40.33% in the 838 neonates.The highest incidence of myocardial injury was neonatal sepsis (57.14%),followed by neonatal pulmonary hemorrhage (55.56%)and neonatal convulsions (54.55%).The abnormalities consistent rate of hs -cTnI and CK -MBmass was better than hs -cTnI and MYO (85.50% vs 28.11%,χ2 =226.9,P <0.05). Conclusion Neonatal hospitalized children often complicated by myocardial injury;As a biochemical myocardial injury marker,the hs -cTnI detection is important for early detection of myocardial injury,it should be recommend as routine test items;CK -MBmass has better correlation with hs -cTnI than MYO,which can provide guide for doctors to interpret the data of myocardial injury markers.

Objective To screen the prevalence and related risk factors of minor hallucinations(MH)in newly diagnosed Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods From November 2018 to December 2022,274 newly diagnosed patients with untreated PD were enrolled in the PD Clinic of Brain Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University.According to the score of item 2 of the unified PD rating scale Ⅰ(UPDRSⅠ),the PD patients with MH were selected(MH group,score≥2).The patients matched in age,sex,education and course of disease level were screened in non-MH PD patients(NMH group,score = 0).Cognitive function,depressive symptoms,anxiety symptoms,sleep quality,non-motor symptoms,rapid eye movement sleep disorder(RBD)symptoms,activities of daily life,motor function and disease severity were evaluated with appropriate scales.The differences between two groups were compared,and the risk factors of MH in PD patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate progressive Logistic regression.Results Among the 274 newly diagnosed PD patients,11 cases(4.01%)had MH.Compared with those in NMH group(22 cases),MH group had higher Hamilton depression scale(HAMD)scores,higher Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA)scores,higher PD non motor symptoms(PDNMS)scores and higher RBD scores(all P＜0.05).Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that high HAMD scores,high HAMA scores,high PDNMS scores and high RBD scores were risk factors for MH in PD patients(all P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that high HAMD score(OR =1.182,95%CI:1.004-1.392,P =0.045)and high RBD score(OR =4.448,95%CI:1.066-18.557,P =0.041)were independent risk factors for MH in PD patients.Conclusions MH may occur in newly diagnosed PD patients with probability.Depression and RBD are independent risk factors for MH in PD patients.Attention should be paid to screening patients like this and early intervention measures should be taken.

BACKGROUND:Swimming is an important non-pharmacological treatment for knee osteoarthritis,which can effectively alleviate the disease.However,the effect and mechanism of swimming on senile knee osteoarthritis are still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of swimming exercise on the articular cartilage of aged mice with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:Six 3-month-old male C57BL/6 mice were selected as the young group,and twelve 18-month-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomized into the aged group and the swimming group,with six mice in each group.Mice in the swimming group received adaptive swimming for 1 week and formal swimming for 8 weeks.After the intervention,stride length analysis and sampling were performed in each group.The total number of leukocytes and lymphocytes in peripheral blood was detected by blood routine examinations.The morphology of the articular cartilage was observed by hematoxylin-eosin and safranin O-fast green staining.Chondrocyte counts and the modified Mankin's score were used to evaluate the degree of articular cartilage damage.The protein and mRNA expressions of type Ⅱ collagen,aggrecan and matrix metalloproteinase 13 in articular cartilage were detected by immunohistochemical staining and RT-qPCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the young group,the mice in the aged group showed significantly decreased stride length(P＜0.05),significantly increased numbers of peripheral leukocytes and lymphocytes(P＜0.05),significantly decreased count of chondrocytes(P＜0.05),significantly increased modified Mankin's score(P＜0.05),significantly decreased protein and mRNA expression of type Ⅱ collagen and aggreca(P＜0.05),and significantly increased matrix metalloproteinase 13 expression(P＜0.05).Moreover,hematoxylin-eosin and safranin O-fast green staining showed the uneven surface of the articular cartilage,abnormal chondrocytes,and proteoglycan loss in the aged group.Compared with the aged group,swimming exercise significantly improved the stride length of mice(P＜0.05),decreased the count of peripheral blood lymphocytes(P＜0.05),increased the count of chondrocytes(P＜0.05),decreased the modified Mankin's score(P＜0.05),increased the protein and mRNA expression of type Ⅱ collagen and aggrecan(P＜0.05),and decreased the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 13(P＜0.05).Hematoxylin-eosin and safranin O-fast green staining showed that the articular surface of mice in the swimming group was smooth,chondrocytes were normal,and proteoglycan loss was less.All these findings indicate that swimming exercise can reduce the number of inflammatory cells in the blood of aged mice,improve articular chondrocytes,matrix composition and cartilage tissue morphology;thus,it has a protective effect on the cartilage of aged mice with knee osteoarthritis.

The joint is an important athletic organ,and has special structure,i.e.no blood supply in the mature articular cartilage.Hence,once articular cartilage is damaged and is difficult to self-repair.Nowadays,there are several clinical methods for articular cartilage injury,such as micro-fracture,transplant of articular cartilage,replacement of articular cartilage and cartilage tissue engineering.But the repairing effects of these methods are unsatisfactory.Growth factors are biologically active substances that are synthesized by cells in vivo and can accelerate cell growth,promote cell proliferation and induce cell migration etc.There are many growth factors participate in the development of cartilage,such as fibroblast growth factor (FGF),bone morphogenetic protein(BMP),insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and so on.Some research showed that the addition of exogenous growth factor in articular cartilage repair can effectively promote the repair of articular cartilage injury.In this paper,the main growth factors used for articular cartilage injury repair were reviewed,and the functions of these factors in the development and the repair of articular cartilage were discussed.The problems of growth factors in the application of articular cartilage repair were analyzed.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors associated with the comorbidity of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and depression. Methods A case-control study was conducted based on the ^“Healthcare Big Data Platform^” of a tertiary class-A comprehensive hospital in Shandong Province. IBD comorbid with depression was served as the case group and IBD without depression was served as the control group. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed by matching the case group with the control group in a ratio of 1:2 according to the age and gender of the patients. Conditional logistic regression model was used to explore the influencing factors associated with the comorbidity of IBD and depression. Results A total of 405 patients with IBD were enrolled in this study, including 270 patients without depression and 135 patients comorbid with depression. The results of conditional logistic regression showed that the use of immunosuppressants (OR=2.84, 95% CI: 1.00-8.07) and glucocorticoids (OR=2.05, 95% CI: 1.17-3.58), dementia (OR=5.20, 95% CI:1.59-17.05), cardiovascular disease (OR=3.58, 95% CI: 1.84-6.98) and cancer (OR=2.63, 95% CI: 1.16-5.95) were associated with the comorbidity of depression and IBD. Conclusion Attention should be paid to the use of immunosuppressants and glucocorticoids in the population of IBD comorbid with depression, and the coexistence of physical diseases such as dementia, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Early prevention and targeted treatment measures should be taken for high-risk populations to reduce their risk of depression and improve their quality of life and health.
