BACKGROUND:The human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) is one of preferred growth factors for regulating proliferation and directional differentiation, has multiple biological effects, and laids the foundation for geneticaly engineered immortalized stem cel lines. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect ofhTERT gene-modified umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel transplantation on acute kidney injury induced by ischemia and reperfusion in rats. METHODS:The human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cels were cultured in vitro. Rat models of acute kidney injury induced by ischemia and reperfusion were established. Rat models were randomly divided into three groups. Rats in the control group were injected with 1 mL L-DMEM medium through caudal vein. Rats in the negative transfection group were injected with 1 mL umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel suspension after empty virus transfection through caudal vein. Rats in the hTERT transfection group were injected with 1 mL umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel suspension after PLXSN-hTERT transfection through caudal vein. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 3 and 28 days after transplantation, hematoxylin-eosin staining showed renal tubular damage score in the hTERT transfection group < negative transfection group < control group (P < 0.05). At 28 days after transplantation, the number of CM-Dil-positive cels in the hTERT transfection group > negative transfection group > control group (P < 0.05). At 1, 3, 14, and 28 days, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels in the hTERT transfection group < negative transfection group < control group (P < 0.05). The results confirm that hTERT gene-modified umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel transplantation has a significant repair effect on acute kidney injury in rats.

BACKGROUND:At present, heterologous serum as a medium is a common method for culture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, but it is limited by the disease transmission between species, the potential immune rejection and even controversial ethic issues. This method is also contrary to the requirements of the Ministry of Health. Autologous platelet-rich plasma is a kind of whole blood extract, containing a variety of growth factors. OBJECTIVE:To explore the osteogenic differentiation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells cultured in autologous platelet rich plasma alternative to traditional heterogeneous serum-free culture. METHODS:8 mL bone marrow from the rabbit iliac crest was extracted and anti-coagulated with heparin, and then bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated using density gradient centrifugation. The cells were divided into autologous platelet rich plasma group (10%autologous platelet rich plasma) and fetal bovine serum group (10%fetal bovine serum). At the passage 4, the cells in the two groups were respectively subdivided into experimental and control groups. Experimental groups were subjected to osteogenic induction, while no change was done in the control groups. cellproliferation was determined by using growth curves;the activity of alkaline phosphatase was detected to adjust the osteogenic differentiation of cells in different groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells at different generations al showed good proliferation. At 12 days of autologous platelet rich plasma culture, the activity of alkaline phosphatase in the passage 4 cells in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group;while the activity of alkaline phosphatase in the autologous platelet rich plasma group was significantly higher than that in the fetal bovine serum group (P<0.01). These findings indicate that autologous platelet rich plasma as a substitute of xenogeneic serum for culture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells is a method characterized as safe and reliable, simple operation, high-purity active induction.

Based on the report of previous clinical study which showed cholinergic receptor antagonist scopolamine had antidepressant activity, this study was to investigate the antidepressant activity of scopolamine and explore its effective dose in mice, and to evaluate the effect of scopolamine on the central nervous system and learning/memory ability at its antidepressant effective dose. Tail suspension test, forced swimming test, step-down passive avoidance test and open field test were used to evaluate its effects on mice. Compared with the vehicle control group, single-dose administration of scopolamine (0.1-0.4 mg x kg(-1), ip) significantly decreased the immobility time (P < 0.01 or P < 0.001) in tail suspension test, and significantly decreased the immobility time (P < 0.001) in forced swimming test, but had no effect on the step-down latency and errors in step-down passive avoidance test. Scopolamine (0.1 and 0.2 mg x kg(-1), ip) had no influence on the locomotor activity in open field test, while at dose of 0.4 mg x kg(-1) significantly increase the locomotor activity. These results showed that scopolamine produced reliable antidepressant effect at doses of 0.1 and 0.2 mg x kg(-1), without impairment on learning and memory, as well as excitory or inhibitory effect on central nervous system in mice.
