Porcine aortic valves were decellularized with Triton X-100 and trypsin. The cells were encapsulated into the PEG-hydrogels to complete the process of the cells attaching to the acellular porcine aortic valves. Herein, the autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) of goats were selected as the seeding-cells and the tendency of MSCs toward differentiation was observed when the single semilunar TEHV had been implanted into their abdominal aortas. Furthermore, VEGF, TGF-β1, and the cell adhesive peptide motif RGD were incorporated. Light and electron microscopy observations were performed. Analysis of modified PEG-hydrogels TEHV's (PEG-TEHV) tensile strength, and the ratio of reendothelial and mural thrombosis revealed much better improvement than the naked acellular porcine aortic valve (NAPAV). The data illustrated the critical importance of MSC differentiation into endothelial and myofibroblast for remodeling into native tissue. Our results indicate that it is feasible to reconstruct TEHV efficiently by combining modified PEG-hydrogels with acellular biomaterial scaffold andautologous MSCs cells.展开更多

Methods The hVEGF165 and hBMP2 cDNAs were obtained from human osteosarcoma cell line MG63 and cloned into lentiviral expression vectors designed to co-express the copepod green fluorescent protein (copGFP). The expression lentivector and packaging Plasmid Mix were co-transferred to 293TN cells, which produced the lentivirus carrying hVEGF165 (Lv-VEGF) or hBMP2 ( Lv-BMP) , respectively. MSCs of Wistar rats were co-transfected with Lv-BMP and Lv-VEGF (BMP + VEGF group), or each alone (BMP group and VEGF group), or with no virus ( Control group). The mRNA and protein expressions of hVEGF165 and hBMP2 genes in each group were detected by real-time PCR and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results Lentiviral expression vectors carrying hVEGF165 or hBMP2 were correctly constructed and confirmed by restriction endonucleses analysis and DNA sequencing analysis. A transfer efficiency up to 90% was archieved in all the transfected groups detected by the fraction of fluorescent cells using fluorescent microscopy. From the results generated by real-time PCR and ELISA, VEGF165 and BMP2 genes were co-expressed in BMP + VEGF group. No significant difference of BMP2 expression was detected between BMP + VEGF and BMP groups ( P 〉 0. 05). Similarly, there was no significant difference of VEGF165 expression between BMP + VEGF and VEGF groups ( P 〉 0. 05). Conclusion VEGF165 and BMP2 genes were successfully co-expressed in MSCs by lentivirus-mediated co-transfection, which provided a further foundation for the combined gene therapy of bone regeneration.展开更多

Methods: Thirty one rabbits were randomized into control (CG, n=10) and experimental groups (EG, n=21). The rabbits in EG were injected with homogeneous bone marrow extract (0.35 ml/kg, 2 ml/h) at a slow and continuous rate through the jugular vein to establish the model of ALI. At 6 h after the injection, the number of circulating endothelial cells (CECs) in the blood, contents of granule membrane protein 140 (GMP 140), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and endothelin 1 (ET 1) in the plasma and the content of GMP 140 in the pulmonary tissue were determined at various time intervals. Then the animals were killed and routine pathological examination and electron microscopy were performed to observe the changes in the pulmonary tissue. Results: The levels of plasma GMP 140, ACE, ET 1 and CECs were significantly increased in the early stage ( 0.5 h) and remained higher for 6 h. The marked increase of plasma GMP 140 (3.25 times) in the early stage was negatively correlated to PaO 2, but positively to other parameters. IHC staining showed that the GMP 140 on the surface of PVECs became weak. Conclusions: BME injection at slow and continuous rate can establish an acceptable model of ALI. Determination of plasma GMP 140 might be an important measure for the early surveillance and the evaluation of prognosis of ALI in clinical management of serious traffic accidents.展开更多

Methods: Local cerebral ischemia-reperfusion rat model was established with modified Zea-Longa thread-occlusion method, and MSCs were injected into the caudal vein, and Buyang Huanwu Tang(补阳还五汤)was administrated. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and Ki-67 expression in the ischemic side of the brain in the cerebral ischemic-reperfusion rat were detected with immuno-histochemical staining method. Results: VEGF and Ki-67 expressions were significantly up-regulated in the MSCs group and the combination group, with significant differences as compared with the model group and the sham operation group (P<0.05), and with the most strongest effect in the combination group. Conclusion: Buyang Huanwu Tang(补阳还五汤)combined with MSCs transplantation repairs the injured blood vessels and lesion tissues possibly by up-regulation of VEGF and Ki-67 expression.展开更多
