        Mechanical Stimulation and Diameter of Fiber Scaffolds Affect the Differentiation of Rabbit Annulus Fibrous Stem Cells

        Zhou Pinghui,Wei Bangguo,Guan Jingjing,Chen Yu,Zhu Yansong,Ye Yuchen,Meng Yue,Guan Jianzhong,Mao Yingji 한국조직공학과 재생의학회 2021 조직공학과 재생의학 Vol.18 No.1

        BACKGROUND: Degeneration of the annulus fibrosus (AF), an important structure of the intervertebral disc, is one of the main causes of degenerative disc disease. Fabrication of scaffolds replicating the stratified microstructure of the AF is critical for the successful regeneration of AF. METHODS: In this study, we cultured rabbit AF-derived stem cells (AFSCs) using fabricated electrospun fibrous poly-L-lactic acid scaffolds with different diameters. We applied cyclic tensile strain (CTS) on the scaffolds to regulate the differentiation of AFSCs into specific cell types that resided at the inner, middle, and outer zones of the AF. RESULTS: We found that the morphologies of AFSCs on the smaller-fiber-diameter scaffolds were nearly round, whereas spindle-like cells morphologies were observed on large-diameter scaffolds. CTS enhanced these phenomena and made the cells slender. The expression levels of collagen-I in cells increased as a function of the fiber diameter, whereas collagen-II and aggrecan exhibited opposite trends. Moreover, the application of CTS upregulated the gene expressions of collagen-I, collagen-II, and aggrecan. CONCLUSION: Overlaying the scaffolds with different CTS-stimulated cells could eventually lead to engineered AF tissues with hierarchical structures that approximated the native AF tissue. Thus, the proposed methodologies could be potentially applied for AF regeneration.

        M-RAS Regulate CDH1 Function in Blastomere Compaction during Porcine Embryonic Development

        Zhou, Dongjie,Niu, Yingjie,Cui, Xiang-Shun The Korean Society of Animal Reproduction and Biot 2020 한국동물생명공학회지 Vol.35 No.1

        Cell adhesion plays an important role in the differentiation of the morphogenesis and the trophectoderm epithelium of the blastocyst. In the porcine embryo, CDH1 mediated adhesion initiates at compaction before blastocyst formation, regulated post-translationally via protein kinase C and other signaling molecules. Here we focus on muscle RAS oncogene homolog (M-RAS), which is the closest relative to the RAS related proteins and shares most regulatory and effector interactions. To characterize the effects of M-RAS on embryo compaction, we used gain- and loss-of-function strategies in porcine embryos, in which M-RAS gene structure and protein sequence are conserved. We showed that knockdown of M-RAS in zygotes reduced embryo development abilities and CDH1 expression. Moreover, the phosphorylation of ERK was also decreased in M-RAS KD embryos. Overexpression of M-RAS allows M-RAS KD embryos to rescue the embryo compaction and blastocyst formation. Collectively, these results highlight novel conserved and multiple effects of M-RAS during porcine embryo development.

        Simulation of the Field Emission from a Hemisphere-on-Post Nanowire: Revision of the Fowler–Nordheim Formula in Terms of Nonuniformity and Resistance

        Jindi Wei,Gengmin Zhang,Yingjie Xing,Jin Yang,Wensheng Zhou 성균관대학교(자연과학캠퍼스) 성균나노과학기술원 2019 NANO Vol.14 No.8

        The electric field on a hemisphere-on-post nanowire is numerically calculated using the finite element method (FEM). The FEM calculation results show that the field is sufficiently strong for extracting a significant field emission current only in a small area at the top of the hemisphere, while the contribution to the field emission from the other part of the hemisphere and the flank side of the cylinder is negligible owing to the rapid drop of the electric field. Both the local current density at the top of the hemisphere (Jc) and the average current density across the nanowire cross-section (Ja) are calculated and the Ja-to-Jc ratio (α) is introduced to reflect the non-uniformity of the field emission. An empirical formula with proper parameters that can best fit the simulation results is derived for describing the dependence of α on the macroscopic electric field (Fm). As a result, the Ja–Fm relationship is attained and the revision to the traditional Fowler–Nordheim (FN) formula caused by the nonuniformity of field distribution is found in both the pre-exponent part and the exponent part, so that the deviation of the FN plots from linearity often observed in experiments is partly accounted for. Moreover, the resistance at the emitter-substrate interface is shown to cause saturation in the field emission current and a downward bending of the FN plot in the high-field region.
