Objective To determine the effect of isopsoralen (ISO) on the healing of tibia fracture in mice and explore its underlying mechanism. Methods Fifty male C57BL/6 mice (2 month old, 20±2 g) were randomly divided into model group and ISO treatment group, with 25 animals in each group. From the 3rd day after modeling, the mice from the ISO group were given an intragastric gavage of 40 mg/kg ISO, once per day for 28 consecutive days, while those of the model group was given same volume of normal saline in same way. On the 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th day after gavage, the tibia on the surgical side was taken, and the fracture area was quantified by bone volume/total volume (BV/TV) after micro-CT scanning. The healing and shaping of the fracture end were observed through HE staining. ELISA was used to detect the serum contents of bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP) and procollagen type Ⅰ N-terminal peptide (PINP) on the 14th day of gavage. Western blotting was employed to determine the expression levels of Collagen Ⅰ, Runx2, BMP2, OSX, and VEGF in the tibial callus tissue in 7 and 14 d after gavage. Vascular perfusion was applied to observe the callus microvessels in 28 d to quantitatively analyze the vascular volume fraction and vessel diameter. Immunohistochemical staining was conducted to observe the expression of VEGF in the callus in 14 d after gavage. Results HE staining displayed that the ISO group had faster healing process than the model group. Micro-CT quantification results showed that the ISO group had higher BV/TV ratio in 7 d after gavage though no statistical difference, significantly higher ratio in 14 d (P < 0.05), but obviously lower ratio in 21 and 28 d after gavage (both P < 0.05) when compared with the model group. The serum contents of BALP and PINP were also remarkably higher in the ISO group than the model group (P < 0.05). Western blotting results indicated that the expression levels of Collagen Ⅰ, Runx2, BMP2, OSX and VEGF in the ISO group were higher than those in the model group (P < 0.05). The results of angiography revealed that the vascular volume fraction and vessel diameter were notably increased in the ISO group than the model group (both P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical assay showed that the expression of VEGF was higher in the ISO group than the model group (P < 0.05). Conclusion ISO can improve the activity of osteoblasts, increase the expression of osteogenesis-related proteins, and accelerate the angiogenesis to promote fracture healing.

OBJECTIVE:To explore effects of isopsoralen (ISO) with different doses on fracture and vascular healing in mice.METHODS:Sixty 2-month-old male C57BL/6 mices with body mass of (20±2) g were selected and divided into 4 groups by random number table method:model group (model), low dose group (isopsoralen-low dose, ISO-L), medium dose group (isopsoralen-medium dose, ISO-M) and high dose group (isopsoralen-high dose, ISO-H), with 15 animals in each group. The right tibial fracture model was established. After operation, ISO-L group, ISO-M group and ISO-H group were given ISO concentration of 10 mg·kg-1, 20 mg·kg-1 and 40 mg·kg-1, respectively. Model group was given same volume of normal saline once a day for 28 days. Weighed once a week. X-ray was performed on 7, 14, 21 and 28 days, respectively, and modified I.R. Garrett scoring method was used to evaluate callus growth. After 28 days, the main organs were stripped and weighed, and organ coefficients were calculated. Hematoxylin eosin staining (HE staining) was performed on the organs to observe whether there were pathological structural changes. Micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) was used to scan fracture area and conduct three-dimensional reconstruction to obtain the effect map, and quantify bone volume fraction (bone volume/total volume, BV/TV). After decalcification, the tibia was embedded in paraffin wax and sectioned. The healing and shape of fracture end were observed by HE staining and ferruxin solid green staining. The right tibia was removed and decalcified after intravascular infusion of Microfil contrast agent. Micro-CT was used to scan the callus microvessels in the fracture area, and the vascular volume fraction and vessel diameter were quantified.RESULTS:After 28 days of administration, there was no significant difference in body mass and organ coefficient among all groups (P>0.05), and no significant pathological changes were found in HE staining of organs. The results of X-ray and improved I.R. Garrett score showed that ISO-M group was higher than that of Model group at 28 days (P<0.05). Scores of ISO-H group at 14, 21 and 28 days were higher than those of the other 3 groups (P<0.05). Micro-CT results showed intracavitary callus in ISO-M group was significantly reduced, which was lower than that in Model group (P<0.05), most of the callus in ISO-H group were subsided, and BV/TV in ISO-H group was lower than that in the other 3 groups (P<0.05). The results of HE staining and ferrubens solid green staining showed fracture area of ISO-H group was closed, continuous laminar bone had appeared, and the fracture healing process was higher than that of other groups. Angiographic results showed vascular volume fraction in ISO-H and ISO-M groups was higher than that in Model and ISO-L groups (P<0.05), and the vascular diameter in ISO-H and ISO-M groups was higher than that in Model and ISO-L groups (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:In the concentration range of 10-40 mg·kg-1, ISO has no obvious toxic and side effects, and could improve bone microstructure, promote formation of callus microvessels, and accelerate healing of fracture ends in a concentration-dependent manner.

Objective:To study the effects of a simulated plateau environment on fracture healing in rats.Methods:A rat model of mid-femoral fracture was established by hacksaw truncation and intramedullary fixation with Kirschner wires in 60 male Wistar rats which were divide into 2 groups ( n=30) by the random number table method. The rats in the control group were raised in the animal experiment center of The 940 Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of Chinese PLA at an altitude of 1,400 m, while the rats in the plateau group were placed in an animal experimental cabin in a simulated plateau environment at a simulated altitude of 5,000 m. The body weight was weighed once a week and X-ray films were taken every 2 weeks. Blood samples were collected after 4 weeks for detection of biochemical indicators of bone metabolism. After 8 weeks, the femurs of the surgical side were taken for bone biomechanical detection and the bone mineral density of the healthy side was detected. After 4 and 8 weeks, the femurs of the surgical side were taken for in vitro Micro-CT scanning and angiography detection. After 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks, the femurs of the surgical side were taken for bone histopathologic detection. Results:During the entire experiment, no rats in the control group died while the mortality rate of the rats in the plateau group was as high as 26.7% (8/30). In the plateau group, some organs were pathologically damaged in the rats, fracture union was delayed, and the callus differentiated and matured slowly with the chondrocytes still dominant at the 8th week. The bone mineral density and the maximum load of the femur in the plateau group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P< 0.05). Angiography showed that the rats in the plateau group had microvascular proliferation which did not penetrate the fracture end at the 8th week. The bone formation indexes like osteocalcin, procollagen type Ⅰ N-terminal propeptide (PⅠNP), and osteoprotegerin of the rats in the plateau group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the 4th week ( P<0.05). The bone resorption indexes like tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b) and receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) in the plateau group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:A simulated plateau environment at an altitude of 5,000 m may lead to delayed fracture healing in rats.
Objective To determine the effect of pinoresinol diglucoside (PDG) on bone quality in growing rats and evaluate its potential as an anti-osteoporosis drug. Methods A total of 30 1-month-old female SD rats (body weight 107±7 g) were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group (Control), 25 mg/(kg·d) PDG treatment group (PDG-25) and 50 mg/(kg·d) PDG treatment group (PDG-50), with 10 rats in each group. The rats in the PDG-25 group and PDG-50 group were given corresponding doses of PDG intragastrically every day, and those of the control group was given equal volume distilled water. Their body mineral density (BMD) of the whole body was measured in 2, 4 and 6 weeks after treatment. In the end of 6 weeks, all rats were sacrificed, and organ coefficients of important organs were calculated. Micro-CT scanning, bone biomechanical test and serum biochemical tests of bone metabolism were performed. Results There were no significant differences in body weight and main organ coefficients among the groups. At 6 weeks, the BMD value was significantly higher in the PDG-25 group and PDG-50 group than the Control group (P < 0.05). The PDG-50 group had significantly higher relative bone volume, trabecular number and volumetric bone mineral density (P < 0.05), lower trabecular separation (P < 0.05) than the Control group, and the bone microstructure of PDG-25 group and PDG-50 group was significantly better than that of Control group. The PDG-50 group had elevated elastic modulus of femur (P < 0.05), larger maximum load of vertebrae (P < 0.05). The PDG-50 group had increased content of serum osteocalcin (P < 0.01), but obviously lower content of serum tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5b (P < 0.01), when compared with the Control group. The content of serum osteocalcin in the PDG-25 group was significantly higher than that in the Control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion PDG can effectively improve bone mineral density, optimize bone microstructure, enhance bone strength, promote bone formation, inhibit bone resorption and improve bone quality.

In recent years, international and domestic academics have made a series of studies on themechanism of icariin which is the main effective component of Herba Epimedii, to accelerate fracture healing.The current research results show that the mechanism of icariin accelerating fracture healing is to promote themigration and homing of BMSCs and ASCs by activating Wnts, BMP, MAPK, ER and other related signalpathways, so as to carry out osteogenic differentiation into osteoblasts. At the same time, it can promotethe maturation and mineralization of osteoblasts to form callus, and inhibit the bone resorption activity ofosteoclasts. This article reviews the mechanism of icariin in accelerating fracture healing from the aspectsof its effects on related cells and vascular remodeling, so as to provide reference for the follow-up research.
