Objective To study the effects of platelet-rich plasma(PRP) on the proliferation and osteogenetic activity of the marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) cultured in vitro to elucidate the cellular and molecularmechanism by which PRP accelerates bone repair.Methods The human MSCs were cultured in vitro and randomly divided into the experimental group(n=9) and control group(n=9). In the experimental group, the MSCs were interfused with PRP(10 μl/ml culture media). The proliferation ability of the cells was tested by flow cytometry and MTT, the osteogenetic activity by alkaline phosphatase(ALP) measuring and tetracycline fluorometry, and cbfal mRNA expression by reverse transcriptPCR.Results PRP could stimulate the MSCs proliferation. The flow cytometry assay showed that the MSCs proportion of S period of the experimental group significantly increased 14.5±0.4 in comparison with that of the control group 7.2±0.5 (P＜0.01) after 24 hours. MTT value showed that MSCs proliferatedto platform period earlier in the experimental group than in the control group. There was a significant increase in ALP activity of the experimental group 7.79±1.98,9.51±2.31and 14.03±3.02 when compared with that of the control group 2.06±0.77,2.84±0.82 and 2.58±0.84 after 3, 6 and 9 days(P＜0.05). The number of mineral nodes increased. Reverse transcript-PCR showed that the expression of cbfal mRNA were elevated gradually at 2,4 and 8 hours after interfused with PRP.Conclusion The effect of PRP on accelerating bone repair is related to its effects on stimulating the proliferation of MSCs, increasing the cbfal expression and promoting the osteogenetic activity.
Objective To investigate the possibility of constructing eukaryoticexpression vector for human angiopoietin 1（hAng-1），transfecting it to bonemarrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) so as to repair bone defect. Methods The eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3-hAng-1 was constructed by recombinant DNA technique, transfected into MSCs by liposome DOTAP, and selected with G418. The hAng-1 expression of mRNA and protein was detected by reverse transcript-PCR and Western Blot. Results After the recombinant eukaryotic expressionvector for hAng-1 was digested with Xho-I and BamH-I, electrophoresis revealed 1.4 kb fragment for hAng-1 gene and 5.4 kb fragment for pcDNA3 vector. In the transfected MSCs, the mRNA and protein expression of hAng-1 gene were detected with reverse transcriptPCR and Western Blot. Conclusion The constructed eukaryotic expression vector hAng-1 could be expressed in the transfected MSCs, thus to provide the basis for bone repair with tissue engineering.
Thymic neuroendocrine tumors (TNETs) are a series of rare diseases with aggressive biology and poor prognosis. Clinical manifestations of TNETs are atypical, and ectopic secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone can be found in some cases, resulting in associated endocrine symptoms. Due to the low morbidity and strong heterogeneity, it’s difficult to diagnose, treat and obtain new treatment regimen. Early complete surgical resection is an effective treatment. For advanced cancer, clinical trials of new drugs are expected to improve the survival of patients.
ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of robot-assisted minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) and open freehand TLIF for the treatment of single-level degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DSL) and analyse the influence on postoperative adjacent segmental degeneration (ASD). Methods The clinical data of 116 patients with L4、5 DLS who were admitted between November 2019 and October 2021 and met the selection criteria were retrospectively analyzed. According to the surgical methods, they were divided into the robotic group (45 cases, who underwent robot-assisted MIS-TLIF) and the open group (71 cases, who underwent open freehand TLIF). There was no significant difference in baseline data such as gender, age, body mass index, DLS Meyerding grading, and preoperative Pfirrmann grading, Weishaupt grading, L3, 4 intervertebral disc height (DH), L3, 4 intervertebral mobility, sagittal parameters [including pelvic incidence (PI), lumbar lordosis (LL), sacral slope (SS), pelvic tilt (PT)], and Cage height (P>0.05). The grade of facet joint violation (FJV) by pedicle screws on the superior articular process was assessed postoperatively. Sagittal parameters, L3, 4 DH, L3, 4 DH loss, and L3, 4 intervertebral mobility were measured preoperatively and at last follow-up in order to determine whether ASD occurred. Based on the occurrence of postoperative ASD, logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for ASD after TLIF. Results Patients in both groups were followed up 21-47 months, with a mean of 36.1 months; there was no significant difference in the follow-up time between the two groups (P>0.05). The occurrence of postoperative FJV was significantly better in the robotic group than in the open group (P<0.05). At last follow-up, the difference in the change values of sagittal parameters PI, PT, SS, and LL was not significant when comparing the two groups of patients (P>0.05); the change values of L3, 4 DH and L3, 4 DH loss in the robotic group were smaller than those in the open group, and the change value of L3, 4 intervertebral mobility was larger than that in the open group, and the differences were significant (P<0.05). At last follow-up, ASD occurred in 8 patients (17.8%) in the robotic group and 35 patients (49.3%) in the open group, and the difference in ASD incidence between the two groups was significant (P<0.05). logistic regression analysis showed that open surgery, preoperative Pfirrmann grading Ⅳ-Ⅴ, preoperative Weishaupt grading ≥2, and postoperative FJV grading ≥1 were risk factors for the development of ASD after TLIF (P<0.05). ConclusionCompared with traditional open surgery, orthopedic robot-assisted MIS-TLIF in the treatment of single-level DLS can more accurately insert pedicle screws, reduce the loss of DH and the occurrence of FJV, and effectively reduce the incidence of mid-postoperative ASD. Preoperative disc and synovial joint degeneration in adjacent segments, nonrobotic-assisted minimally invasive therapy, and FJV are risk factors for ASD after TLIF.
ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of modified transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (modified-TLIF) and posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) for mild to moderate lumbar spondylolisthesis in middle-aged and elderly patients.MethodsThe clinical data of 106 patients with mild to moderate lumbar spondylolisthesis (Meyerding classification≤Ⅱ degree) who met the selection criteria between January 2015 and January 2017 were retrospectively analysed. All patients were divided into modified-TLIF group (54 cases) and PLIF group (52 cases) according to the different surgical methods. There was no significant difference in preoperative clinical data of gender, age, disease duration, sliding vertebra, Meyerding grade, and slippage type between the two groups (P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, postoperative drainage volume, postoperative bed time, hospital stay, and complications of the two groups were recorded and compared. The improvement of pain and function were evaluated by the visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score at preoperation, 1 week, and 1, 6, 12 months after operation, and last follow-up, respectively. The effect of slip correction was evaluated by slip angle and intervertebral altitude at preoperation and last follow-up, and the effectiveness of fusion was evaluated according to Suk criteria.ResultsAll patients were followed up, the modified-TLIF group was followed up 25-36 months (mean, 32.7 months), the PLIF group was followed up 24-38 months (mean, 33.3 months). The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, postoperative drainage volume, postoperative bed time, and hospital stay of the modified-TLIF group were significantly less than those of the PLIF group (P<0.05). The VAS score and JOA score of both groups were significantly improved at each time point after operation (P<0.05); the scores of the modified-TLIF group were significantly better than those of the PLIF group at 1 and 6 months after operation (P<0.05). The slip angle and intervertebral altitude of both groups were obviously improved at last follow-up (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups at preoperation and last follow-up (P>0.05). At last follow-up, the fusion rate of the modified-TLIF group and the PLIF group was 96.3% (52/54) and 98.1% (51/52), respectively, and no significant difference was found between the two groups (χ2=0.000, P=1.000). About complications, there was no significant difference between the two groups in nerve injury on the opposite side within a week, incision infection, and pulmonary infection (P>0.05). No case of nerve injury on the operation side within a week or dural laceration occurred in the modified-TLIF group, while 8 cases (15.4%, P=0.002) and 4 cases (7.7%, P=0.054) occurred in the PLIF group respectively.ConclusionModified-TLIF and PLIF are effective in the treatment of mild to moderate lumbar spondylolisthesis in middle-aged and elderly patients. However, modified-TLIF has relatively less trauma, lower blood loss, lower drainage volume, lower incidence of dural laceration and nerve injury, which promotes enhanced recovery after surgery.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of zinc finger protein A20 on lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration in rabbits.MethodsTwenty-six 3-month-old New Zealand rabbits, 2.0-2.5 kg in weight, were used to establish the model of intervertebral disc degeneration at L3, 4, L4, 5, and L5, 6 by transabdominal needle puncture. At 4 weeks after operation, the 24 rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups after successful modeling, which checked by MRI. The target intervertebral discs of each group were injected with zinc finger protein A20 overexpressed adenovirus (Ov-A20 group), empty carrier adenovirus (NC group), phosphate buffer saline (control group), and shRNA-A20 adenovirus (Sh-A20 group). The biological responses of animals in each group were comprehensive scored before 1 day of injection and after 1, 2, 3, and 6 days of injection. At 2, 4, and 8 weeks after injection, the animals in each group were observed by MRI to obtain the exact T2 relaxation time (T2 signal value). After MRI examination, the animals were killed to take the degenerative intervertebral disc tissue; and the tissue was detected by Alcian blue staining to observed the intervertebral disc degeneration. The expressions of zinc finger protein A20, collagen Ⅱ, and aggrecan were detected by immunohistochemistry staining. The expressions of zinc finger protein A20, nuclear factor κB binding protein [P65, phosphate P65 (P-P65), collagen Ⅱ, aggrecan], inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β)], autophagy-related protein [LC3 (LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ) and P62] were detected by Western blot.ResultsThe comprehensive score of biological response in each group after injection was significantly lower than that before injection (P<0.05). At 6 days after injection, the comprehensive score of biological response in the Sh-A20 group was significantly lower than that in other groups (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference among other groups (P>0.05). The detection of MRI showed that the T2 signal value in the Ov-A20 group was the highest at 2, 4, and 8 weeks after injection (P<0.05), and the T2 signal value in the Sh-A20 group was the lowest at 2 and 4 weeks after injection (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between other groups (P>0.05). Alcian blue staining showed that the expression of aggrecan was the highest in Ov-A20 group and the lowest in Sh-A20 group at 4 weeks (P<0.05); the expression of aggrecan in Ov-A20 group was the highest at 8 weeks (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between other groups (P>0.05). Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expressions of zinc finger protein A20, collagen Ⅱ, and aggrecan were the highest in Ov-A20 group and lowest in Sh-A20 group (P<0.05). Western blot showed that the expressions of zinc finger protein A20, collagen Ⅱ, aggrecan, and LC3 (LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ) proteins were the highest in the Ov-A20 group and the lowest in Sh-A20 group (P<0.05), while the expressions of P-P65, TNF-α, IL-1β, and P62 proteins were the lowest in Ov-A20 group and the highest in Sh-A20 group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of p65 protein between groups (P>0.05).ConclusionZinc finger protein A20 can effectively regulate the process of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration in rabbits by inhibiting inflammation.
