骨形态发生蛋白2及碱性成纤维生长因子2对大鼠骨髓间充质干细胞膜片增殖和成骨分化的影响

文题释义： 细胞膜片技术：是在体外接种培养高密度的细胞，使其相互融合生长至100%而形成的透明致密膜状物。该技术不需要胰酶消化即可收集细胞，因此保留了大量的胞外基质、细胞间连接以及细胞-基质连接等结构。目前细胞膜片技术已成为组织工程领域的研究热点，已被推广应用于牙周膜、角膜、心脏、软骨、食管等多种组织器官修复。 成骨细胞：主要由内外骨膜和间充质始祖细胞分化而来，在复杂的骨形成过程中发挥着主要的功能，承担着骨基质的合成、分泌和矿化。骨髓间充质干细胞具有多向分化潜能，能定向分化为成骨细胞，其成骨分化过程可受多种因素的影响，如细胞因子的调控、遗传因素和激素水平等。背景：现阶段骨形态发生蛋白2和碱性成纤维生长因子2对骨髓间充质干细胞膜片增殖、成骨分化的影响和作用机制还尚未可知，如何将生长因子与组织工程细胞膜片技术相整合，最终将其用于骨缺损修复具有重要意义。 目的：探讨单独及联合应用骨形态发生蛋白2和碱性成纤维生长因子2对骨髓间充质干细胞膜片增殖和成骨分化的影响。 方法：体外分离培养鉴定SD大鼠骨髓间充质干细胞并构建细胞膜片，选用不同质量浓度的骨形态发生蛋白2和碱性成纤维生长因子2单独及联合诱导骨髓间充质干细胞膜片，CCK-8法结合碱性磷酸酶活性检测确定2种因子促进膜片增殖和成骨分化的最佳有效质量浓度；然后对骨髓间充质干细胞膜片进行成骨诱导，通过大体及显微镜观察、Vonkossa染色、茜素红染色、RT-PCR检测相关成骨标志物来评估诱导效果。 结果与结论：单独应用骨形态发生蛋白2可增强骨髓间充质干细胞膜片的碱性磷酸酶活性，最佳质量浓度为100 μg/L(P < 0.001)，单独应用碱性成纤维生长因子2能加速骨髓间充质干细胞膜片的增殖，最佳质量浓度为20 μg/L(P < 0.001)，而联合应用既可以促进膜片增殖又能提高其碱性磷酸酶活性(P < 0.001)；经成骨诱导后，4组膜片在形态学上无明显差异，均能诱导骨髓间充质干细胞膜片的成骨分化，其中联合组钙结节最明显(P < 0.001)，可显著促进膜片晚期成骨分化并抑制其早期成骨分化，具有明显的协同促进作用(P < 0.001)。结果表明，骨形态发生蛋白2和碱性成纤维生长因子2联合应用时具有协同作用，既可以促进骨髓间充质干细胞膜片增殖，又能显著增强其成骨诱导能力。ORCID: 0000-0003-1918-579X(何惠宇) 中国组织工程研究杂志出版内容重点：干细胞；骨髓干细胞；造血干细胞；脂肪干细胞；肿瘤干细胞；胚胎干细胞；脐带脐血干细胞；干细胞诱导；干细胞分化；组织工程

A DNA vaccine expressing an optimized secreted FAPα induces enhanced anti-tumor activity by altering the tumor microenvironment in a murine model of breast cancer

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), major components of the tumor microenvironment (TME), promote tumor growth and metastasis and inhibit the anti-tumor immune response. We previously constructed a DNA vaccine expressing human FAPα, which is highly expressed by CAFs, to target these cells in the TME, and observed limited anti-tumor effects in the 4T1 breast cancer model. When the treatment time was delayed until tumor nodes formed, the anti-tumor effect of the vaccine completely disappeared. In this study, to improve the safety and efficacy, we constructed a new FAPα-targeted vaccine containing only the extracellular domain of human FAPα with a tissue plasminogen activator signal sequence for enhanced antigen secretion and immunogenicity. The number of CAFs was more effectively reduced by CD8⁺ T cells induced by the new vaccine. This resulted in decreases in CCL2 and CXCL12 expression, leading to a significant decrease in the ratio of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in the TME. Moreover, when mice were treated after the establishment of tumors, the vaccine could still delay tumor growth. To facilitate the future application of the vaccine in clinical trials, we further optimized the gene codons and reduced the homology between the vaccine and the original sequence, which may be convenient for evaluating the vaccine distribution in the human body. These results indicated that the new FAPα-targeted vaccine expressing an optimized secreted human FAPα induced enhanced anti-tumor activity by reducing the number of FAPα⁺ CAFs and enhancing the recruitment of effector T cells in the 4T1 tumor model mice.     

Absence of FGFR3–TACC3 rearrangement in hematological malignancies with numerical chromosomal alteration

FGFR–TACC, found in different tumor types, is characterized by the fusion of a member of fibroblast grown factor receptor (FGFR) tyrosine kinase (TK) family to a member of the transforming acidic coiled-coil (TACC) proteins. Because chromosome numerical alterations, hallmarks of FGFR–TACC fusions are present in many hematological disorders and there are no data on the prevalence, we studied a series of patients with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome who presented numerical alterations using cytogenetic traditional analysis. None of the analyzed samples showed FGFR3–TACC3 gene fusion, so screening for this mutation at diagnosis is not recommended.     

Renal fibrosis and the origin of the renal fibroblast.

Many studies have determined that the extent of tubulointerstitialinvolvement, particularly fibrosis, correlates better with renalfunction than glomerular changes do, thus, the extent of tubulointerstitialdamage in any given renal biopsy has important implicationsfor the renal prognosis of the patient (summarized in [1]).Tubulointerstitial fibrosis is characterized by the accumulationof extracellular matrix components including collagen typesI, III, IV, proteoglycans and fibronectin. In recent years,much controversy has been created in the nephrology communityregarding the origin of matrix-producing cells in the kidney.Several possibilities exist, including activation of residentinterstitial fibroblasts, migrating haematopoietic or mesenchymalstem cells from the bone marrow, periadventitial cells and epithelial–mesenchymaltransition (EMT) of tubular epithelial cells. This review summarizesrecent data indicating the possible origin of matrix-producingcells in the kidney, and illustrates from a clinical point of     

Basic fibroblast growth factor mRNA, bFGF peptide and FGF receptor in epiretinal membranes of intraocular proliferative disorders (PVR and PDR)

Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) has been shown to be involved in epiretinal membrane formation in proliferative vitreoretinal disorders. However, up to now, little knowledge exists, as to the actual cellular source of this potent mitogen.We examined 20 epiretinal membranes from patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) (n = 12) and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) (n = 8) for the presence of bFGF peptide, fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR-1) and bFGF messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA).Using a specific antibody, we detected bFGF peptide in most (8/10) examined PDR membranes and in all (8/8) PVR membranes. Moreover, we found positive staining for the corresponding receptor.Local production of bFGF in epiretinal membranes was confirmed by nonisotopic in situ hybridisation for bFGF mRNA in some (4/7) examined PDR membranes and some (3/4) examined PVR membranes. All membranes which contained bFGF mRNA were also positive for bFGF peptide.In conclusion, bFGF is produced and stored in epiretinal membranes. Together with the corresponding receptor, bFGF may play a role in the auto- and paracrine control of the proliferative processes at the vitroretinal interface.Abbreviations aFGF acidic fibroblast growth factor - bFGF basic fibroblast growth factor - FGFR-1 fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 - mRNA messenger ribonucleic acid

硒对紫外线诱导HLF细胞凋亡的保护作用

目的：探讨紫外线诱导人HLF细胞凋亡时DNA降解特点，以及硒对紫外线诱导细胞凋亡的保护作用。方法：紫外线分别照射体外培养的人肺成纤维细胞3min和5min，同时添加亚硒酸钠（8ng/ml），设立对照组。利用吖啶橙荧光染料染色鉴定凋亡细胞，利用琼脂糖凝胶电泳检测DNA ladder。结果：紫外线可以诱导人肺成纤维细胞（28代）凋亡，作用存在时间效应关系。紫外线诱导人肺成纤维细胞凋亡时，未出现典型的DNA ladder现象。硒对于紫外线诱导的细胞凋亡有显著的抑制作用。结论：DNA ladder不能作为细胞凋亡的唯一的标志，紫外线诱导的细胞凋亡与DNA ladder的出现并不总是一致的。硒具有拮抗紫外线诱导的细胞凋亡作用。     

人血浆作为真皮支架对自体皮肤增殖的影响：组织学和免疫组织化学试验●☆

背景：组织工程是一个多学科研究的交叉学科，其目标是使人体损伤的组织和器官再生，通过这种假设，几乎所有的动物组织都可以在实验室进行培养。一般的方法是从需要移植的患者身上提取干细胞，在一定的支持条件下允许其生长、增殖、生产为可替换的组织。另一方面，寻找细胞能够互相联结并形成分层结构的合适的支持条件，如基质或支架等非常必要。目前用于烧烫伤治疗的材料有很多种，如胶原，透明质酸、纤维蛋白和聚乳酸及其共聚物。 目的：讨论以新型的生物材料自体血浆为支架对自体成纤维细胞和角质化细胞生长、扩张、增殖的影响。 设计：建立一种真皮再生的方法，将自体成纤维细胞浸于人血浆基质中，排除各种影响样本安全性和排斥反应的问题，应用同样的方法在新的真皮上获取角质化细胞。 时间及地点：实验于2008年在意大利曼多瓦C. Poma医院动物工厂完成。 材料：人角质化细胞和成纤维细胞取自1例58岁乳房切除患者的皮肤碎片。实验得到C. Poma医院独立伦理委员会批准，患者知情同意。 方法：从自体活组织皮肤样本中分离人角质化细胞和成纤维细胞，置于培养瓶中增殖，随后将自体血浆作为皮肤移植形成构造的支架，免疫和免疫组织化学特征显示与正常皮肤相似。 主要观察指标：将血浆样本用甲醛固定，埋入石蜡，苏木精-伊红染色，用显微镜进行细胞计数。所有样本均经免疫组织化学评估。 结果：在血浆基质上获得了多层规则形状的角质化细胞和成纤维细胞，基底膜的形成说明自体血浆是角质化细胞和成纤维细胞的生长、分化、扩展的良好支架，真皮和表皮细胞联结重建皮肤移植与正常皮肤无异。 结论：血浆作为角质化细胞和成纤维细胞分化、扩展的支架表现出良好的性能，同时实验还特别发现成纤维细胞浓缩血浆可以暂时替代皮肤，也是角质化细胞生长的强有力的支架。此外血浆还具有廉价，易于制备等优点。自体角质化细胞和成纤维细胞及自体血浆的应用，可以避免血种类型的免疫排斥反应。这种治疗方法给有慢性缺损并且需要连续移植的患者带来了希望。 doi:10.3969/j.issn.1673-8225.2009.47.001
