  • EFFECT OF TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR β3, BONE MORPHOGENETIC PROTEIN 2, AND DEXAMETHASONE ON CHONDROGENIC DIFFERENTIATION OF RABBIT SYNOVIAL MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS

    ObjectiveTo study the effect of transforming growth factor β3 (TGF-β3), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2), and dexamethasone (DEX) on the chondrogenic differentiation of rabbit synovial mesenchymal stem cells (SMSCs). MethodsSMSCs were isolated from the knee joints of 5 rabbits (weighing, 1.8-2.5 kg), and were identified by morphogenetic observation, flow cytometry detection for cell surface antigen, and adipogenic and osteogenic differentiations. The SMSCs were cultured in the PELLET system for chondrogenic differentiation. The cell pellets were divided into 8 groups: TGF-β3 was added in group A, BMP-2 in group B, DEX in group C, TGF-β3+BMP-2 in group C, TGF-β3+DEX in group E, BMP-2+DEX in group F, and TGF-β3+BMP-2+DEX in group G; group H served as control group. The diameter, weight, collagen type II (immuohistochemistry staining), proteoglycan (toluidine blue staining), and expression of cartilage related genes [real time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) technique] were compared to evaluate the effect of cytokines on the chondrogenic differentiation of SMSCs. Meanwhile, the DNA content of cell pellets was tested to assess the relationship between the increase weight of cell pellets and the cell proliferation. ResultsSMSCs were isolated from the knee joints of rabbits successfully and the findings indicated that the rabbit synovium-derived cells had characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells. The diameter, weight, collagen type II, proteoglycan, and expression of cartilage related genes of pellets in groups A-F were significantly lower than those of group G (P<0.05). RT-qPCR detection results showed that the relative expressions of cartilage related genes (SOX-9, Aggrecan, collagen type II, collagen type X, and BMP receptor II) in group G were significantly higher than those in the other groups (P<0.01). Meanwhile, with the increase of the volume of pellet, the DNA content reduced about 70% at 7 days, about 80% at 14 days, and about 88% at 21 days. ConclusionThe combination of TGF-β3, BMP-2, and DEX can make the capacity of chondrogenesis of SMSCs maximized. The increase of the pellet volume is caused by the extracellular matrix rather than by cell proliferation.

  • PERIOPERATIVE BLOOD MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES FOR JOINT ARTHROPLASTY

    ObjectiveTo summarize the perioperative blood management strategies for joint arthroplasty. MethodsThe literature concerning preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative blood management was reviewed and summarized. ResultsAt present, a variety of blood management and conservation strategies are available. Preoperative strategies include iron supplementation, erythropoietin (EPO), and preoperative autologous donation (PAD). Intraoperative options include acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH), antifibrinolytics, and the use of a tourniquet. Postoperative strategies include the use of reinfusion systems and guided transfusion protocols. Preoperatively, administration of either simple EPO or a combination of EPO and PAD can be efficacious in anemic patients. Intraoperatively, tourniquet use and tranexamic acid can effectively control bleeding. Postoperatively, appropriate transfusion indications can avoid unnecessary blood transfusions. ConclusionPerioperative blood management strategies for joint arthroplasty should be integrated for the individual patient using a variety of ways to reduce perioperative blood loss and blood transfusion, and promote the rehabilitation of patients.

  • CONDITIONS OF SYNOVIAL MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS DIFFERENTIATING INTO FIBROCARTILAGE CELLS

    ObjectiveTo explore the conditions of synovial derived mesenchymal stem cells (SMSCs) differentiating into the fibrocartilage cells by using the orthogonal experiment. MethodsThe synovium was harvested from 5 adult New Zealand white rabbits, and SMSCs were separated by adherence method. The flow cytometry and multidirectional differentiation method were used to identify the SMSCs. The conditions were found from the preliminary experiment and literature review. The missing test was carried out to screen the conditions and then 12 conditions were used for the orthogonal experiment, including transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), bone morphogenic protein 2 (BMP-2), dexamethasone (DEX), proline, ascorbic acid (ASA), pyruvic acid, insulin+transferrin+selenious acid pre-mixed solution (ITS), bovin serum albumin (BSA), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), intermittent hydraulic pressure (IHP), bone morphogenic protein 7 (BMP-7), and insulin-like growth factor (IGF). The L60 (212) orthogonal experiment was designed using the SPSS 18.0 with 2 level conditions and the cells were induced to differentiate on the small intestinal submucosa (SIS)-3D scaffold. The CD151+/CD44+ cells were detected with the flow cytometry and then the differentiation rate was recorded. The immumohistochemical staining, cellular morphology, toluidine blue staining, and semi-quantitative RT-PCR examination for the gene expressions of sex determining region Y (SRY) -box 9 gene (Sox9), aggrecan gene (AGN), collagen type I gene (Col I), collagen type Ⅱ gene (Col Ⅱ), collagen type IX gene (Col IX) were used for result confirmation. The differentiation rate was calculated as the product of CD151/CD44+ cells and cells with Col I high expression. The grow curve was detected with the DNA abundance using the PicoGreen Assay. The visual observation and the variances analysis among the variable were used to evaluate the result of the orthogonal experiment, 1 level interaction was considered. The q-test and the least significant difference (LDS) were used for the variance analysis with a type Ⅲ calibration model. The test criteria (α) was 0.05. ResultsThe cells were certified as SMSCs, the double-time of the cells was 28 hours. During the differentiation into the fibrocartilage, the volume of the SIS-3D scaffold enlarged double every 5 days. The scaffolds were positively stained by toluidine blue at 14 days. The visual observation showed that high levels of TGF-β1 and BMP-7 were optimum for the differentiation, and BMP-7 showed the interaction with BMP-2. The conditions of DEX, ASA, ITS, transferrin, bFGF showed decreasing promotional function by degrees, and the model showed the perfect relevance. P value was 0.000 according to the variance analysis. The intercept analysis showed different independent variables brought about variant contribution; the TGF-β1, ASA, bFGF, IGF, and BMP-7 were more remarkable, which were similar to the visual observation. ConclusionIn the process of the SMSCs differentiation into the fibrocartilage, the concentrations of TGF-β1, ASA, bFGF, and IGF reasonably can improve the conversion rate of the fibrocartilage cells. The accurate conditions of the regulatory factor should be explored further.
