The biocompatibility and osteogenic activity of allogenic decalcified bone matrix (DBM) used as a carrier for bone tissue engineering were studied. Following the method described by Urist, allogenic DBM was made. In vitro, DBM and bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC) from rabbits were co-cultured for 3-7 days and subjected to HE staining, and a series of histomorphological observations were performed under phase-contrast microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In vivo the mixture of DBM/BMSC co-cultured for 3 days was planted into one side of muscules sacrospinalis of rabbits, and the DBM without BMSC was planted into other side as control. Specimens were collected at postoperative week 1, 2 and 4, and subjected to HE staining, and observed under SEM. The results showed during culture in vitro, the BMSCs adherent to the wall of DBM grew, proliferated and had secretive activity. The in vivo experiment revealed that BMSCs and undifferentiated mesenchymal cells in the perivascular region invaded gradually and proliferated together in DBM/BMSC group, and colony-forming units of chondrocytes were found. Osteoblasts, trabecular bone and medullary cavity appeared. The inflammatory reaction around muscles almost disappeared at the second weeks. In pure DBM group, the similar changes appeared from the surface of the DBM to center, and the volume of total regenerate bones was less than the DBM/BMSC group at the same time. The results indicated that the mixture of DBM and BMSC had good biocompatibility and ectopic induced osteogenic activity.

Isatis indigotica Fort. (Ban-Lan-Gen) is an herbal medicine prescribed for influenza treatment. However, its active components and mode of action remain mostly unknown. In the present study, erucic acid was isolated from Isatis indigotica Fort., and subsequently its underlying mechanism against influenza A virus (IAV) infection was investigated in vitro and in vivo. Our results demonstrated that erucic acid exhibited broad-spectrum antiviral activity against IAV resulting from reduction of viral polymerase transcription activity. Erucic acid was found to exert inhibitory effects on IAV or viral (v) RNA-induced pro-inflam-matory mediators as well as interferons (IFNs). The molecular mechanism by which erucic acid with antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties was attributed to inactivation of NF-kB and p38 MAPK signaling. Furthermore, the NF-kB and p38 MAPK inhibitory effect of erucic acid led to diminishing the transcriptional activity of interferon-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF-3), and thereby reducing IAV-triggered pro-inflammatory response amplification in IFN-β-sensitized cells. Additionally, IAV- or vRNA-triggered apoptosis of alveolar epithelial A549 cells was prevented by erucic acid. In vivo, erucic acid administration consistently displayed decreased lung viral load and viral antigens expression. Meanwhile, erucic acid markedly reduced CD8+cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) recruitment, pro-apoptotic signaling, hyperactivity of multiple signaling pathways, and exacerbated immune inflammation in the lung, which resulted in decreased lung injury and mortality in mice with a mouse-adapted A/FM/1/47-MA(H1N1) strain infection. Our findings provided a mechanistic basis for the action of erucic acid against IAV-mediated inflammation and injury, suggesting that erucic acid may have a therapeutic potential in the treatment of influenza.

Objective To study the role of call stimulate in arousal of coma patients after severe craniocerebral injury.Methods Twenty patients with severe craniocerebral trauma coma,admitted to our hospital from June 2014 to June 2015,were randomly divided into stimulation group (n=13) and control group (n=7).In addition to the regular relatives call stimulation,other treatments in stimulation group were the same as the control group.One,2,and 4 weeks after call stimulation,Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores,blood flow velocity changes of internal carotid artery (ICA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA),and neurotransmitter contents of5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT),dopamine (DA),norepinephrine (NE) and acetylcholine (Ach) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were detected.Results The consciousness was significantly improved in the stimulation group since the second week;at the 4th week,the GCS scores (11.85±2.58) were significantly higher than those in the control group (9.14±2.85,P＜0.05).ICA and MCA blood flow velocity of both groups reached peak level in the first week,and then,gradually decreased till the end of the observation;ICA velocity value in the stimulation group (72.85± 7.45) was lower than that in the control group (82.14±11.61).The DA,Ach and NE content in the stimulation group were significantly increased at the 4th week as compared with those in the control group (P＜0.05);but no significant difference was noted between the two groups in the content of 5-TH (P＞0.05).Conclusion The call stimulus has certain awaking effect on coma patients,whose mechanism may be related to call induced changes of cerebral blood flow velocity and related neurotransmitter release.

Objective To investigate the effect of iron on measurement of bone mineral density(BMD)by quantitative computed tomography(QCT)and to establish a correction equation to exclude the effect of iron by using R2*.Methods A total of 15 water models containing different concentrations of iron were prepared by analyzing pure anhydrous calcium chloride and 100 mg/mL iron dextran injection.Each water model was scanned by CT and MRI under the same conditions,and the CT,QCT BMD and R2*val-ues were measured.The correlation analysis was performed between iron concentration and CT value,and QCT BMD value.Simple linear regression analysis was performed between iron concentration and QCT BMD value,between QCT BMDiron and R2*.Results There was a significant positive correlation between iron concentration and CT value,and QCT BMD value(rCT value=0.994,P＜0.001,rQCT BMD=0.993,P＜0.001).The simple linear regression equation between iron concentration and QCT BMD value was established:y=2.34x+159(x:iron concentration,y:QCT BMD).The correction equation was:QCT BMDcorrection=QCT BMDmeasurement-0.093 R2*+0.434.Conclusion Under ideal conditions,iron has an effect on measurement of BMD by QCT,and iron reduces the accuracy of measure-ment of BMD by QCT.The effect of iron on measurement of BMD by QCT needs to be corrected by correction equation.

Objective: To explore the associations of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behavior (SB) among primary and secondary school students and their parents, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating targeted physical activity promotion strategies for children and adolescents. Methods: From 2021 to 2022, basic information and 24 h movement behaviors of 2 484 pairs of students and their parents were collected from five primary and secondary schools in Haizhu District, Guangzhou City, with a convenient sampling combining with cluster sampling method. Component regression models were constructed to analyze the relationship between parental MVPA, SB and primary and secondary school students MVPA and SB, and a component isochronous substitution model was used to explore the effects of mutual substitution between parental MVPA, residual components (time use components other than SB during the 24 h period), and SB on the behavioral activities of MVPA and SB in primary and secondary school students. Results: Parental MVPA and SB of students in grade 1 to 3 were positively correlated with both students MVPA and SB ( β=0.06, 0.12, P <0.01). The component isochronous substitution model showed that substituting 10 and 20 minutes of MVPA for SB by parents in grade 1 to 3 was associated with an increase in MVPA of students, and substituting 10 and 20 minutes of residual ingredients for SB was associated with a decrease in SB of students, with mean changes of 0.8 (95% CI =0.4-1.2) and 1.4 (95% CI =0.7-2.2) and -1.4 (95% CI =-1.7 to -1.1) and -2.9 (95% CI =-3.4 to -2.3)( P <0.05). No statistically significant associations were observed between parents of students in grades 4 to 6 and 7 to 9 and students physical activity and sedentary behaviour ( P >0.05). Conclusions Parents of students in grades 1 to 3 increases MVPA and decrease SB are beneficial to increase MVPA and decrease SB of students. Parents could promote physical activity among primary and secondary school students, and the intervention gateway should be advanced, with the low grades as the optimal intervention period.
