A triple-transgenic (tyrosine hydroxylase/dopamine decarboxylase/GTP cyclohydrolase 1, TH/DDC/GCH1) bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell line (BMSCs) capable of stably synthesizing dopamine (DA) transmitters were established to provide experimental evidence for the clinical treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) by using this cell line. The DA-BMSCs cell line that could stably synthesize and secrete DA transmitters was established by using the triple transgenic recombinant lentivirus. The triple transgenes (TH/DDC/GCH1) expression in DA-BMSCs was detected using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting, and immunofluorescence. Moreover, the secretion of DA was tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Chromosome G-banding analysis was used to detect the genetic stability of DA-BMSCs. Subsequently, the DA-BMSCs were stereotactically transplanted into the right medial forebrain bundle (MFB) of Parkinson's rat models to detect their survival and differentiation in the intracerebral microenvironment of PD rats. Apomorphine (APO)-induced rotation test was used to detect the improvement of motor dysfunction in PD rat models with cell transplantation. The TH, DDC and GCH1 were expressed stably and efficiently in the DA-BMSCs cell line, but not expressed in the normal rat BMSCs. The concentration of DA in the cell culture supernatant of the triple transgenic group (DA-BMSCs) and the LV-TH group was extremely significantly higher than that of the standard BMSCs control group (P < 0.000 1). After passage, DA-BMSCs stably produced DA. Karyotype G-banding analysis showed that the vast majority of DA-BMSCs maintained normal diploid karyotypes (94.5%). Moreover, after 4 weeks of transplantation into the brain of PD rats, DA-BMSCs significantly improved the movement disorder of PD rat models, survived in a large amount in the brain microenvironment, differentiated into TH-positive and GFAP-positive cells, and upregulated the DA level in the injured area of the brain. The triple-transgenic DA-BMSCs cell line that stably produced DA, survived in large numbers, and differentiated in the rat brain was successfully established, laying a foundation for the treatment of PD using engineered culture and transplantation of DA-BMSCs.

Objective:To explore the distribution characteristics of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (BaPWV) in adolescents.Methods:Cross sectional survey research.A total of 1 607 adolescents aged 12-17 years from 5 middle schools in the Haidian District, Beijing from June 2020 to May 2021 were enrolled for measuring their blood pressure, weight, height and the body mass index (BMI), including 782 males and 825 females.BaPWV was measured using an arteriosclerosis detector.They were divided by the age, sex and obesity.Differences of measurement data among multiple groups were compared by one-way ANOVA, followed by the LSD test, and those between groups were compared by the two-sample t-test.The correlation between BaPWV and other indexes was assessed by the Pearson correlation analysis. Results:The median level of BaPWV in adolescents aged 12-17 years increased with age, which was 982.50 cm/s in adolescents aged 12 years, and maximum 1 113.50 cm/s those aged 17 years.BaPWV in adolescents aged 12-17 years was positively correlated with age ( r=0.936, P=0.006). Subgrouped by the sex, the median BaPWV of male and female adolescents aged 12 years was 962.25 cm/s and 997.50 cm/s, respectively, which reached 1 122.50 cm/s and 1 096.00 cm/s in those aged 17 years, respectively.BaPWV of male and female adolescents was positively correlated with the age ( r=0.903, P=0.014; r=0.945, P=0.004). In male adolescents, BaPWV was positively correlated the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, age, weight, height, BMI( r=0.308, P<0.001; r=0.289, P<0.001; r=0.478, P<0.001; r=0.190, P<0.001; r=0.315, P<0.001; r=0.109, P=0.002). In female adolescents, BaPWV also was positively correlated the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, age, weight, height, BMI( r=0.340, P<0.001; r=0.285, P<0.001; r=0.379, P<0.001; r=0.115, P=0.001; r=0.170, P=0.001; r=0.097, P=0.014). In the overall population, BaPWV was statistically significant between the obese and normal groups ( t=-3.428, P=0.001). No significant difference in BaPWV between male and female adolescents aged 12-13 years was identified ( t=0.123, P=0.902 ), but it was significantly lower in female adolescents aged 14-15 years and 16-17 years than those of age-matched males( t=2.315, P=0.021; t=2.152, P=0.032). Conclusions:The median BaPWV level in adolescents aged 12-17 years, increases with the age.Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, body weight, BMI, age and height are positively correlated with BaPWV in adolescents.Obesity can increase the stiffness of blood vessels, which is influenced by the sex.
