Purpose: To compare two different structural nanophase hydroxyapatite(HA) particles on the proliferation activity and functions of osteoblasts.
Methods: Primary culture of osteoblasts from rat calvaria was established and then cultured on the coatings of different size of nano particles (groupI 20-40nm,group II 70-100nm), the HA coatings without nano-particles was used as control group. Proliferation activity, protein content and synthesis of alkaline phosphatase(ALP) by osteoblasts were examined by MTT assay, coomassic brilliant blue method and PNPP test, and statistical significance was assessed by multiple comparison (q test, SNK) in one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with SPSS10.0 software package.
Results: Osteoblasts grew well on HA coatings. MTT assay demonstrated that there was significant difference between group I and group II at 6th day and 8th day (P<0.05).At first half stage(5th day and 10th day) ALP activity test showed no significant difference between group I and groupII (P>0.05) and as the culture going on(15th day and 20th day), there was significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Coomassic brilliant blue method showed that there was significant difference between group I and group II from 5th day to 20th day (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The diameter of nano-particles on the HA coatings could influence the proliferation activity and functions of the osteoblasts. The nano-particles of similar size with HA crystal in vivo showed better cytocompatibility.

CAR T-cell therapy has achieved remarkable clinical success in treating hematological malignancies. However, its clinical efficacy in solid tumors is less satisfactory, partially due to poor in vivo expansion and limited persistence of CAR-T cells. Here, we demonstrated that the overexpression of glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor-related protein ligand (GITRL) enhances the anti-tumor activity of CAR-T cells.

Background: Pathogenic or null mutations in WRN helicase is a cause of premature aging disease Werner syndrome (WS). WRN is known to protect somatic cells including adult stem cells from premature senescence. Loss of WRN in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) not only drives the cells to premature senescence but also significantly impairs the function of the stem cells in tissue repair or regeneration.

Recently, 3-D porous architecture of the composites play a key role in cell proliferation, bone regeneration, and anticancer activities. The osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties of β-TCP allow for the complete repair of numerous bone defects. Herein, β-TCP was synthesized by wet chemical precipitation route, and their 3-D porous composites with HBO and Cu nanoparticles were prepared by the solid-state reaction method with improved mechanical and biological performances.

Ferroptosis is a unique modality of regulated cell death induced by excessive lipid peroxidation, playing a crucial role in tumor suppression and providing potential therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment. Here, we find that aldehyde dehydrogenase-ALDH3A1 tightly links to ferroptosis in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Functional assays demonstrate the enzymatic activity-dependent regulation of ALDH3A1 in protecting SCC cells against ferroptosis through catalyzing aldehydes and mitigating lipid peroxidation.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a prevalent urinary system disorder. Despite evidence of a significant genetic component from previous studies, the specific pathogenic genes and biological mechanisms are still largely unknown. The study utilized the FinnGen R10 dataset, encompassing 177,901 individuals (36,601 cases and 141,300 controls), and the GTEx v8 EQTLs files to conduct single-tissue and cross-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS).
