Impaired early bone formation in periodontal fenestration defects in dogs following application of insulin-like growth factor (II). Basic fibroblast growth factor and transforming growth factor beta 1

Abstract. Effects of a topically applied growth factor combination on fibroblast migration, collagen fiber formation and bone regeneration were studied in standardized periodontal defects in 4 beagle dogs. Following elevation of facial mucoperiosteal flaps, fenestration defects, 3 mm in diameter, were made through the cortical bone and into the dentin of maxillary and mandibular teeth. Collagen sponges, impregnated with 200 ng insulin-like growth factor II, 20 ng basic fibroblast growth factor and 6 ng transforming growth factor beta 1 were fitted to defects randomly in right or left quadrants and the flaps repositioned and sutured. Contralateral control defects received the collagen with vehicle only. Experimental procedures were staggered to allow observations of healing 3, 7, 10, and 14 days after surgery. Histometric analysis showed no differences in fibroblast and collagen density between control and growth factor defects. Bone regeneration was significantly greater in control than in growth factor defects 10 and 14 days after surgery. The rate of healing generally appeared more affected by intra-dog variations or procedural variations than by the growth factor combination.

雌激素对大鼠肝再生过程中肝细胞超微结构的影响

本文采用形态测量技术,分析了雌激素对大鼠肝再生过程中肝细胞超微结构的影响。结果显示,使用雌激素的大鼠肝细胞核及核仁体积明显高于对照组,以术后1～3d最明显(P<0.001);同时,线粒体数密度也明显增加,术后1、3、7d与对照组比较差异有极显著性意义(P<0.01),表明雌激素具有促进肝再生过程中肝细胞线粒体增生的作用。作者认为,雌激素的上述作用是雌激索促进肝细胞再生的形态学表现。     

Role of progenitor endothelial cells in cardiovascular disease and upcoming therapies.

The field of cell-based transplantation has expanded considerably and is poised to become an established cardiovascular therapy in the near future. In this review, we will focus on endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), which are immature cells capable of differentiating into mature endothelial cells. EPCs share many surface marker antigens such as CD34, AC133, Flk-1, etc. with hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and the major source of EPCs as well as HSCs is the bone marrow (BM). BM-derived EPCs are mobilized into peripheral blood and recruited to the foci of pathophysiological neovascularization and reendothelialization, thereby contributing to vascular regeneration. Severe EPC dysfunction is an indicator of poor prognosis and severe endothelial dysfunction. Indeed, number of circulating EPCs and their migratory activity are reduced in patients with diabetes, coronary artery disease (CAD), or subjects with multiple coronary risk factors. Effective neovascularization induced by EPC transplantation for hindlimb, myocardial, and cerebral ischemia has been demonstrated in many preclinical studies, and early clinical trials of EPC transplantation in chronic and acute CAD indicate safety and feasibility of myocardial cell-based therapies. For therapeutic reendothelialization in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, CD34 antibody-coated stents have been used clinically to capture circulating EPCs at the injury sites and enhance reendothelialization and safety of stents. Further development in cell processing technology for efficient isolation, expansion, mobilization, recruitment, and transplantation of EPCs into target tissues are underway and expected to be tested in clinical trials in the near future.     

Schwann cell invasion of the conus medullaris: case report

As Schwann cells possess regenerative capabilities there is intense interest concerning their role in central nervous system (CNS) regeneration. We report on a case of an intramedullary schwannoma involving the conus medullaris and spinal cord above it. We discuss the possible origin of these cells and the mechanisms by which these cells may invade the CNS. We offer imaging and discuss experimental studies to support our hypothesis. This case concerns a 48-year-old man, who presented with a 6-month history of bilateral lower extremity weakness. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intramedullary tumour extending from the conus to T11. At operation, following laminectomy and durotomy, a schwannoma was dissected free from the conus. Total gross resection of tumour was achieved. The patient made an uneventful and full recovery. This case shows that Schwann cells can invade the CNS. Manipulation of the transitional zone astrocytic barrier may offer a potential avenue for Schwann cells to enter the CNS in pathological states.

Periosteal transplantation to the rabbit patella

Autologous periosteal transplantation (without chondrocyte cell transplantation) for treating traumatic articular cartilage defects of the patella gives pain relief in uncontrolled clinical studies. To study the whole transplanted area macroscopically and microscopically, animal studies are motivated. In this pilot study, we reproduce the surgical technique for periosteum transplantation on human patella to a rabbit model. A full-thickness cartilage defect of the whole patella was created in eight adult female rabbits. The defect was treated with autologous periosteal transplantation. After surgery, the rabbits were allowed free activity. This is the difference compared to the treatment in humans, where our group uses CPM for 5 days and non-weight-bearing for 12 weeks. After 21 weeks, there was a diffuse synovitis in all transplanted knees, and in five of eight knees there were signs of osteoarthritis in the patello-femoral joint. Histologically, in three animals, small islands of hyaline cartilage surrounded by fibrocartilage were seen in the transplanted area. In the other five animals, fibrocartilage was the predominant tissue. In contrast to previous experimental studies using a rabbit model, we did not achieve hyaline cartilage resurfacing.     

冷保存对大鼠部分移植肝再生的影响

目的探讨冷保存对大鼠部分肝移植术后肝再生的影响。方法健康SD大鼠分为Ⅰ组（肝切除组）、Ⅱ组（冷保存1h部分肝移植组）和Ⅲ组（冷保存8h部分肝移植组）。观察各实验组生存率，比较各组术后1、6、12、24、48、72、168h肝质量／体质量比率、肝再生率、有丝分裂指数及增殖细胞核抗原表达。结果Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ组7d存活率分别为100％、90％、40％；Ⅲ组术后2～3d大鼠肝质量／体质量比率、肝再生率、有丝分裂指数较Ⅰ、Ⅱ组明显偏低（P〈0．05）；Ⅲ组术后12h内增殖细胞核抗原表达较其余两组明显偏低（P〈0．05），48h才达高峰，至第7天阳性表达仍处高水平。结论长时间冷保存降低了部分肝移植术后的肝再生能力和大鼠术后生存率。
