[Experimental study on repairing segmental bone defects with three bio-bone derived materials].

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the osteogenesis of three bio-bone derived materials in repairing segmental bone defects. METHODS: Sixty Japanese rabbits were made 10 mm radius segmental defects and divided into 5 groups (groups A, B, C, D and E, n=12). Composite fully deproteinised bone (CFDB, group A), partially deproteinised bone (PDPB, group B), partially decalcified bone (PDCB, group C), autogenous iliac bone graft (group D) and no implant (group E) were implanted into the radius segmental bone defects of rabbits. The specimens were examined after 4, 8, 12 and 24 weeks; the osteogenesis was evaluated through X-ray radiograph and undecalcified solid tissue histological examination. RESULTS: The border between the material and host's bone was distinct after 4 weeks and blurred after 8 weeks; the density of partial edge of the material was similar to that of radii after 12 weeks. The medullary cavity of bone reopened in group B; the density of most defect area was similar to that of the host bone and there was a few high density shadow in group C; the density of most defect area was higher than that of host bone in group A after 24 weeks. There was no significant difference in radiograph scoring between groups A, B and C after 4 weeks and 8 weeks (P>0.05); the scores of group B and C were higher than that of group A after 12 weeks (P<0.05); and the scores were arranged as follow: group D > group B > group C > group A after 24 weeks (P<0.05). Bone callus grew toward defect area and new bone adhered to the material after 4 weeks and 8 weeks; more new bone formed, and the materials were absorbed and degraded with time. The quantity of bone formation was more in group D than in group B and in group B than in group C and in group C than in group A after 24 weeks (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: PDPB had good osteogenesis in repairing the segmental bone defect, PDCB was inferior to it, both PDPB and PDCB are fit to repair segmental bone defect. Both of them were inferior to autogenous bone.

Protocol for Detecting and Sequencing Chikungunya Virus from Field-Collected Mosquitoes.

Arboviral diseases represent a major public health challenge, especially in tropical regions where environmental conditions may favor the proliferation and spread of mosquito vectors. Thus, early and accurate detection of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) in mosquito populations can be a valuable tool for effective surveillance of circulating variants and for identifying new viral introductions. Given the challenges of detecting arboviruses in field-captured mosquitoes, we describe an integrated workflow for CHIKV molecular detection and whole-genome sequencing. This protocol includes mosquito homogenization using a bead-based mechanical disruptor, RNA extraction using TRIzol reagent with minor modifications, molecular screening using CHIKV-specific RT-qPCR, and whole-genome amplification followed by sequencing on Illumina platforms. Despite the protocol being optimized for individual mosquitoes, it results in high-quality RNA suitable for both entomological surveillance and genomic analysis. As this protocol allows recovery of complete CHIKV genomes from mosquito specimens, it can serve as a basis for genomic epidemiology studies, enabling monitoring of viral diversity and lineage dynamics, and facilitating early detection of emerging variants to support timely and targeted public health interventions in endemic and at-risk regions.

Genomic Profiling of Chromatin State Using CUT&Tag.

Alterations in chromatin state, mediated through histone modifications and the incorporation of histone variants, are fundamental to establishing transcriptional networks and cell identity. Recent advances in low-input epigenome profiling methods, such as CUT&Tag and CUT&RUN, have enabled the study of chromatin states from very limited starting materials. In this chapter, we describe procedures for generating CUT&Tag libraries to profile histone modifications and histone variants in early-developing zebrafish embryos.

Relaxin-2: Shaping the Proteomic Landscape of Skeletal Muscle Physiology, Glucose Trafficking, and Mitochondrial Function in Rat.

Relaxin-2 is a hormone with robust beneficial effects on the heart and blood vessels and potential as a therapy for cardiovascular (CV) disease. Considering the interorgan communication between skeletal muscle and heart, and the relation between muscle quality/composition and CV events, we hypothesize that relaxin-2 may regulate skeletal muscle physiology and metabolism. We aim to evaluate the impact of relaxin-2 on the proteome of skeletal muscle from healthy Sprague-Dawley rats. Animals were treated with 0.4&#x2009;mg/kg/day of serelaxin (recombinant form of human relaxin-2) or vehicle (PBS) for 2&#x2009;weeks employing subcutaneous osmotic minipumps. Skeletal muscle protein identification and quantification were performed by LC-MS/MS using a Data-Independent Acquisition (DIA)-Sequential Window Acquisition of All Theoretical Fragment Ion Spectra (SWATH) method. SWATH/MS quantitative analysis identified that relaxin-2 significantly decreased 95 proteins and significantly increased 32 proteins in rat skeletal muscle when compared to control rats. From these, 34 proteins were associated with muscle function, myogenesis, muscle differentiation and/or regeneration, 20 are mitochondrial proteins (six from the complexes of the electron transport chain), and 10 proteins participate in glucose metabolism. Qualitative data-dependent workflow analysis identified 35 proteins exclusive to the skeletal muscle of the relaxin-2-treated group: eight proteins related to processes of skeletal muscle function (size, ion homeostasis or organization of caveolae structures and cytoskeleton) and myogenesis, and two proteins involved in muscle differentiation. Our work highlighted for the first time the role of relaxin-2 in crucial processes of muscle physiology and energetic metabolism, which could influence several processes involved in myopathy and CV.
