The wear debris generated during artificial joint prosthesis service can react with bone tissues to form osteolysis,seriously affecting the life-time of artificial joint prostheses.This paper reviews,summarizes,and analyzes domestic and international research literature on the extraction,characterization,and identification of wear debris from different artificial joint materials,aiming to provide references and feasible ideas for the future construction of a systematic and hierarchical research system for artificial joint wear debris.The main findings are as follows:strong alkali protein degradation test,strong acid protein degradation test,and protease protein degradation test are the commonly used method for extracting artificial joint wear debris,and researchers have clarified the protein degradation mechanisms of these three debris extraction methods.The characterization of wear debris in-vitro and in-vivo is mostly for hip and knee joints,with a small amount involving cervical spine and ankle joints.Studies have shown that the size,quantity,shape,and volume of wear particles are influenced by factors such as joint type,contact area,material selection,and implantation time.Both domestic and international studies have conducted characterization research on wear debris after in-vitro simulation testing,but there is still a lack of wear debris characterization analysis of clinical retrievals in China.Currently,most research is on the recognition of wear debris in the traditional mechanical field,but research on the intelligent recognition of artificial joint wear debris is relatively few,indicating that there is a certain lag in the application of computer technology in the field of artificial joint wear debris recognition.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic effect of compound Kuijie Ankang Decoction on ulcerative colitis (UC) model mice by non targeted metabonomics; To explore its mechanism.Compound Kuijie Ankang.Methods:The mice were randomly divided into blank control group, model group, Kuijie Ankang Decoction group and sulfasalazine group, with 12 mice in each group. Except the blank control group, the other groups were given 1.5% DSS solution for free drinking to prepare UC model. After successful modeling, Kuijie Ankang Decoction group was intragastrically administered with compound Kuijie Ankang Decoction of 9.68 g/kg, sulfasalazine group was intragastrically administered with sulfasalazine capsule suspension of 320 mg/kg, model group and blank control group were intragastrically administered with equal volume of purified water, once a day, for 7 consecutive days. The body mass and disease activity index (DAI) score of mice were measured. ELISA was used to measure the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in the colon tissue of mice; the protein expressions of Claudin-1 and Zo-1 in colon tissue were detected by immunofluorescence method. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the colon, and UHPLC-OE-MS technology was used to analyze the endogenous metabolite structure of mouse colon tissue, differential metabolites and related metabolic pathways were screened.Results:Compared with the model group, the colon length in Kuijie Ankang Decoction group and sulfasalazine group increased ( P<0.01), the DAI score decreased ( P<0.01), the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in colon tissue decreased ( P<0.01), the level of IL-10 increased ( P<0.01), and the average optical density of Claudin-1 and Zo-1 protein increased ( P<0.01 or P<0.05). Metabolomics analysis identified 26 potential differential metabolites, including nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, guanine, gamma aminobutyric acid, and thiamine, affecting 26 key metabolic pathways, including lysine biosynthesis, thiamine metabolism, cysteine and methionine metabolism. Conclusion:Kuaijie Ankang Decoction may improve metabolites such as Gamma aminobutyric acid and thiamine through metabolic pathways such as lysine biosynthesis to alleviate inflammatory reactions, thereby exerting therapeutic effects on ulcerative colitis in mice.

Objective To evaluate the value of ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) in assessment of atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E (ApoE) knockout mice feeding with western diet.Methods Sixteen ApoE knockout mice in 8 weeks age were selected,then divided into two groups.One group was fed with west diet as high-fat group,and another group was fed with normal diet as control group.Intima-media thickness (IMT) and plaque area in the aortic root were assessed by UBM in two groups after 8 weeks and 16 weeks.And the measurements of UBM were compared with results of histopathology and blood-fat.ResultsThicken wall and plaque could be find in aortic root in control group and high-fat diet group byUBM.IMT and plaque area in high-fat diet group was significantly higher than those of control group ( P ＜ 0.05).The IMT and plaque area in UBM were good correlation with histopathology ( rwas 0.81 and 0.70 respectively).The triglyceride(TC) and total cholesterol in high-fat diet group was significantly higher than those of control group ( P ＜0.05),and IMT in UBM were increased with the elevated level of TC,there was a positive correlation between IMT and TC( r =0.528).ConclusionsWestern diet can accelerate the process in formation of atherosclerotic plaque in ApoE knockout mice.UBM can be used to observe this prograss noninvasively in vivo mice.
