摘要：Abstract Meniscus injury is a common disease in *** it was not treated in time,it leads to osteoarthritis which brings unbearable pain and heavy economic burden to the *** present,meniscectomy and meniscus suture are widely used in the treatment for meniscus ***,It is not ideal for poor self-healing ability of *** recruitment of endogenous stem cells is an attractive option for wounded meniscus *** reduced high-mobility group box 1 protein(HMGB1)can accelerate the regeneration of multiple tissues by endogenous stem cell activation,migration and ***(KGN)has shown to induce the chondrogenesis of the stem ***,no study has explored such effects of HMGB1 and KGN in wounded meniscus ***,in order to improve the regeneration of meniscus,we intend to use a novel bioactive microsphere which was developed by combining fully reduced high mobility group box 1(frHMGB1)and kartogenin(KGN)with alginate gel which slowly release high concentrations of HMGB1 and KGN to activate rat bone marrow stem cells(BMSCs)and promote cell *** results showed that this HMGB1–KGN microsphere released and kept high concentrations of HMGB1 and KGN in the wound area for more than 2 *** vitro experimental results showed that the HMGB1–KGN microsphere can promote cell proliferation via recruiting rat bone marrow stem cells(BMSCs)and activating the BMSCs from G_(0) to G_(Alert) stage as evidenced by cell migration testing and 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine(BrdU)incorporation *** vivo results indicated that this HMGB-KGN microsphere can recruit GFP-labeled BMSCs from tail vein to wounded meniscus and induce these GFP-labeled BMSCs to differentiate into *** results demonstrated that the HMGB1–KGN-containing bioactive microsphere induced cell migration in vitro and recruited the cells to wound area to promote wounded rat meniscus healing in vivo.

摘要：Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world underlining the importance of efficient treatments including disease modeling and drug discovery by cardiac tissue ***,the predictive power of these applications is currently limited by the immature state of the ***,we developed gelatin hydrogels chemically crosslinked by genipin,a biocompatible crosslinker,as cell culture *** rat cardiomyocytes appear synchronous beatingwithin 2 days after seeding on ***,we applied the electrical stimulation as a conditioning treatment to promote the maturation of cardiomyocytes cultured on the *** results show that electrical stimulation improves the organization of sarcomeres,establishment of gap junctions,calcium-handling capacity and propagation of pacing signals,thereby,increase the beating velocity of cardiomyocytes and responsiveness to external *** above system can be applied in promoting physiological function maturation of engineered cardiac tissues,exhibiting promising applications in cardiac tissue engineering and drug screening.
