  • Intra-pulmonary Artery Infusion of Antitumor Necrosis Factor-α Antibody Attenuates Lung Injury after Cardiopu-lmonary Bypass

    Objective To investigate the protective effects of antitumor necrosis factor-α antibody (TNF-αAb) on lung injury after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and their mechanisms. Methods Forty healthy New Zealand white rabbits,weighting 2.0-2.5 kg,male or female,were randomly divided into 4 groups with 10 rabbits in each group. In groupⅠ,the rabbits received CPB and pulmonary arterial perfusion. In group Ⅱ,the rabbits received CPB and pulmonary arterial perfusion with TNF-αAb. In group Ⅲ,the rabbits received CPB only. In group Ⅳ,the rabbits only received sham surgery. Neutrophils count,TNF-α and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations of the blood samples from the left and right atrium as well as oxygenation index were examined before and after CPB in the 4 groups. Pathological and ultrastructural changes of the lung tissues were observed under light and electron microscopes. Lung water content,TNF-α mRNA and apoptoticindex of the lung tissues were measured at different time points. Results Compared with group Ⅳ,after CPB,the rabbitsin group Ⅰ to group Ⅲ showed significantly higher blood levels of neutrophils count,TNF-α and MDA(P<0.05),higherTNF-α mRNA expression,apoptosis index and water content of the lung tissues (P<0.05),and significantly lower oxyg-enation index (P<0.05) as well as considerable pathomorphological changes in the lung tissues. Compared with group Ⅱ,after CPB,the rabbits in groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ had significantly higher blood concentrations of TNF-α (5 minutes after aortic declamping,220.43±16.44 pg/ml vs.185.27±11.78 pg/ml,P<0.05;249.99±14.09 pg/ml vs.185.27±11.78 pg/ml,P<0.05),significantly higher apoptosis index (at the time of CPB termination,60.7‰±13.09‰ vs. 37.9‰±7.78‰,P<0.05;59.6‰±7.74‰ vs. 37.9‰±7.78‰,P<0.05),significantly higher blood levels of neutrophils count and MDA (P<0.05),significantly higher TNF-α mRNA expression and water content of the lung tissues (P<0.05),and significantly loweroxygenation index (P<0.05) as well as considerable pathomorphological changes in the lung tissues. Compared with groupⅠ,rabbits in group Ⅲ had significantly higher above parameters (P<0.05) but lower oxygenation index (P<0.05) only at 30 minutes after the start of CPB. Conclusion Pulmonary artery perfusion with TNF-αAb can significantly attenuate inflammatory lung injury and apoptosis of the lung tissues during CPB.

  • Effectiveness and Safety of Nedaplatin Combined with Chemotherapy for Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: A Meta-Analysis

    Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of nedaplatin combined with chemotherapy versus cisplatin combined with chemotherapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on nedaplatin combined with chemotherapy versus cisplatin combined with chemotherapy for advanced NSCLC were searched in The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CBM, VIP and WanFang Data from the date of their establishment to January 2012. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers independently screened the studies, extracted the data and assessed the quality. Then RevMan 5.0 software was used for meta-analysis. Results A total of 15 RCTs involving 1 076 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, compared with the cisplatin combined with chemotherapy, nedaplatin combined with chemotherapy could reduce the risks of nausea and vomiting (RR=0.56, 95%CI 0.48 to 0.65, Plt;0.000 01), decrease the risk of renal function impairment (RR=0.47, 95%CI 0.30 to 0.74, P=0.001), but increase the risk of thrombocytopenia (RR=1.59, 95%CI 1.20 to 2.11, P=0.001). There were no significant differences between the two groups in objective response rate (ORR) (RR=1.09, 95%CI 0.92 to 1.29, P=0.03), leukopenia (RR=1.05, 95%CI 0.92 to 1.19, P=0.50), and hemoglobin reduction (RR=0.92, 95%CI 0.80 to 1.07, P=0.30). Conclusion Compared with cisplatin combined with chemotherapy for advanced NSCLC patients, nedaplatin in combination with chemotherapy can significantly reduce the risks of nausea, vomiting and renal function impairment. Although the ORRs are similar in the two groups, nedaplatin combined with chemotherapy can cause a higher risk of thrombocytopenia. For the quality restriction and possible publication bias of the included studies, more high quality RCTs are required to further verify this conclusion.

  • AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON REPAIR OF SCIATIC NERVE INJURY BY Schwann-LIKE CELLS DERIVED FROM UMBILICAL CORD BLOOD MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of using Schwann-like cells derived from human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells (hUCBMSCs) as the seed cells to repair large sciatic nerve defect in rats so as to provide the experimental evidence for clinical application of hUCBMSCs. MethodsFourty-five male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats in SPF grade, weighing 200-250 g, were selected. The hUCBMSCs were harvested and cultured from umbilical cord blood using lymphocyte separating and high molecular weight hydroxyethyl starch, and then was identified. The hUCBMSCs of 3rd generation were induced to Schwann-like cells, and then was identified by chemical derivatization combined with cytokine. The acellular nerve basal membrane conduit was prepared as scaffold material by the sciatic nerve of SD rats through repeated freezing, thawing, and washing. The tissue engineered nerve was prepared after 7 days of culturing Schwann-like cells (1×107 cells/mL) on the acellular nerve basal membrane conduit using the multi-point injection. The 15 mm sciatic nerve defect model was established in 30 male SD rats, which were randomly divided into 3 groups (10 rats each group). Defect was repaired with tissue engineered nerve in group A, with acellular nerve basal membrane conduit in group B, and with autologous sciatic nerve in group C. The nerve repair was evaluated through general observation, sciatic function index (SFI), nerve electrophysiology, weight of gastrocnemius muscle, and Masson staining after operation. ResultsThe hUCBMSCs showed higher expression of surface markers of mesenchymal stem cells, and Schwann-like cells showed positive expression of glia cell specific markers such as S100b, glial fibrillary acidic protein, and P75. At 8 weeks after operation, the acellular nerve basal membrane conduit had no necrosis and liquefaction, with mild adhesion, soft texture, and good continuity at nerve anastomosis site in group A; group B had similar appearance to group A; adhesion of group C was milder than that of groups A and B, with smooth anastomotic stoma and no enlargement, and the color was similar to that of normal nerve. SFI were gradually decreased, group C was significantly greater than groups A and B, group A was significantly greater than group B (P<0.05). The compound action potential could be detected in anastomotic site of 3 groups, group C was significantly greater than groups A and B, and group A was significantly greater than group B in amplitude and conduction velocity (P<0.05). Atrophy was observed in the gastrocnemius of 3 groups; wet weight's recovery rate of the gastrocnemius of group C was significantly greater than that of groups A and B, and group A was significantly greater than group B (P<0.05). Masson staining showed that large nerve fibers regeneration was found in group A, which had dense and neat arrangement with similar fiber diameter. The density and diameter of medullated fibers, thickness of myelinated axon, and axon diameter of group C were significantly greater than those of groups A and B, and group A was significantly greater than group B (P<0.05). ConclusionTissue engineered nerves from hUCBMSCs-derived Schwann-like cells can effectively repair large defects of the sciatic nerve. hUCBMSCs-derived Schwann-like cells can be used as a source of seed cells in nerve tissue engineering.

  • INFLUENCE OF INHIBITION OF ACTIN POLYMERIZATION ON ADIPOGENIC DIFFERENTIATION OF RAT Achilles-DERIVED TENDON STEM CELLS IN VITRO

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of cytoskeleton modification on the adipogenic differentiation of rat Achilles-derived tendon stem cells (TSCs) in vitro. MethodsTSCs were isolated from the tendon tissue of male Sprague Dawley rats (aged 3 weeks) by enzymatic digestion method and cultured for 3 passages. After the 3rd passage cells were cultured with DMEM medium containing 15% fetal bovine serum and cytochalasin D (CYD) at the concentrations of 0, 50, 100, 500, and 1 000 ng/mL, the cell survival condition and morphology changes were observed by inverted phase contrast microscope, the cytoskeleton was observed through fibrous actin (F-actin) staining, and the ratio of F-actin/soluble globular actin (G-actin) was detected and calculated through Western blot. According to the above results, the effective concentration of CYD was selected and used for next experiments. After TSCs were cultured for 3 and 7 days respectively with adipogenic induction media (induction group), adipogenic induction media containing CYD (CYD+induction group), ordinary medium (ordinary group), and ordinary medium containing CYD (CYD+ordinary group), the real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot were carried out to measure the mRNA and protein expressions of adipogenic differentiation-related markers, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), 1ipoprotein lipase (LPL), and fatty acid binding protein (aP2). ResultsThe final CYD concentration of 100 ng/mL can inhibit effectively G-actin polymerization into F-actin, but could not affect TSCs survival, which was used for next experiments. qRT-PCR and Western blot suggested that the mRNA expressions of PPARγ, LPL, and aP2 and the protein expressions of PPARγ and aP2 were increased significantly in the CYD+induction group at 3 and 7 days when compared with the induction group (P<0.05). In the CYD+ordinary group, there still was a significant increase in the mRNA expressions of PPARγ, LPL, and aP2 when compared with the ordinary group (P<0.05). ConclusionInhibition of F-actin polymerization can increase adipogenic differentiation of rat Achilles-derived TSCs in vitro, and cytoskeleton modification is a pre-requisite for TSCs differentiation into adipocytes, which might have important implications for the mechanism research of tendinopathy.

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of leucocyte- and platelet-rich plasma (L-PRP) on the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in treating avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) in rabbits. MethodsTwenty-four New Zealand white rabbits (4-6 months old, both genders, weighing 2.0-3.0 kg) were used for the establishment of bilateral ANFH models and divided into 4 groups (n=6). BMSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of iliac crest, cultured and identified. L-PRP was prepared by Landesberg method. Core decompression only (group A), core decompression and L-PRP implantation (group B), core decompression and BMSCs implantation (group C), and core decompression and implantation of BMSCs and L-PRP were performed in 4 groups. To evaluate bone formation and remodeling of the defects, X-ray photography was taken at 2, 4, and 8 weeks postoperatively. The modified Lane-Sandhu scoring system was used to evaluate the bone formation. Two rabbits were sacrificed at 2, 4, 8 weeks after operation to harvest the specimens for histological observation, new blood vessel count and new bone area ratio. ResultsThe observations of radiology and histology displayed different degrees of bone regeneration at bone defect sites in each group. At 2, 4, and 8 weeks postoperatively, the results of Lane-Sandhu X-ray photography scoring, new blood vessel count, and new bone area ratio showed that groups C and D were significantly better than groups A and B, group D was significantly better than group C. and group B was significantly better than group A (P<0.05). ConclusionThese findings demonstrate that L-PRP can promote osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs in treating ANFH in rabbits, and core decompression associated with BMSCs and L-PRP is an effective and feasible method to treat ANFH.
