Abnormal electroencephalographic activity was detected during seizures, and high-amplitude epileptic discharge waveforms were observed during intermission in approximately 50% of patients.展开更多

In s (BMdMSCs) can differentiate into cardiomyocyte-like cells this study, by inducing BMdMSCs with p53 inhibitor (p-fifty three inhibitor-alpha, PFT-a), 5-azacytidine (5-AZA), angiotensin-II (Ang-II) and bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2) we compared the influences of four inductors on the differentiation of rat BMdMSCs into caridomyocyte like-cells. Methods BMdMSCs were collected from the bone marrow of Sprague Dawley rats and after the fourth generation, the purified cells were divided into five groups: 5-AZA (10 μmol/L), Ang-II (0.1 μmol/L), PFT-α (20 μmol/L), BMP-2 (10μg/L) and control. The purity of the BMdMSCs and the cardiac differentiation rates were obtained by flow cytometry. The expressions of cTnT in the BMdMSCs after four weeks of induction were detected by immunofluorescence and the expressions of cTnl and Cx43 detected by Western blotting. The green fluorescent levels reflecting intracellular calcium transient function were determined by laser scanning confocal microscopy. The total potassium current levels of cells were measured on patch clamp. Results All inductors affected to a different degree the differentiation of BMdMSCs into cardiomyocyte-like cells and the expressions of cTnT, cTnl and Cx43 suggesting that the combination of inductors could be an improved method for cardiac regenerative medicine. In addition, the total potassium current level and calcium transient in PFT-a cardiomyocyte-like cells were higher than other groups. Conclusions The cardiac differentiation of BMdMSCs induced by PFT-α, 5-AZA, Ang-II and BMP-2 has been improved at different levels. PFT-a has an advantage of differentiation rate and electrophysiological function over other inductors.展开更多
