Fifteen pelvic extremities from adult dogs were used to perform 60 cross tunnelization of tibial diaphysis with a wire having a pointed groove, 1.8-mm in diameter, at 1,500 rpm. Thirty five leg X-ray films in the lateral projection, which show changes on days 30, 60, 90, 120, 520 after the experiment, were studied. Bony diaphysis tunnelization was found to give rise to a regeneration focus wherein an area of tissue element degradation and an area of introduction of bony fragments into soft tissues were detectable. Changes in the regeneration focus were determined by a response to osseous fragments, which involved the formation of an bony regenerate during a month and to the resorption of the bony matter of an osseous regenerate and osseous fragments in future. Healing of diaphysis defects began with the resorption of a damaged cortical layer. Osteogenesis prevailed at month 2 and ensured healing of cortical layer defects following 4-6 months. 相似文献

The rich vascular network in the deep fascia has been emphasized by various scientists, but the actual demonstration of live circulation in the deep fascia has not previously been witnessed. Encouraged by the sight of live circulation in the web membrane of toad hind limb, a successful attempt was made to demonstrate the live circulation in the vascular network of the deep fascia. Fascial extensions of inferiorly based fasciocutaneous flaps were dissected in five patients with distal leg and heel defects. The fascial extension in continuity with a proximal retrograde fasciocutaneous flap was mounted on a glass slide and examined under a microscope. The authors witnessed the live microcirculation and the movement of individual red blood corpuscles in vascular channels of the deep fascia. The authors also noticed that the deep fascia has two layers with circulations that are independent of one other. A video recording was made to document these important features. 相似文献

Many organisms across the Metazoa have regenerative abilities with potentially conserved genetic mechanisms that can enlighten both medicine and evolutionary studies. Here, the role of canonical Wnt signaling was examined in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum in order to explore its role during metamorphosis and larval leg regeneration. Double-stranded RNA mediated silencing of Wnt-1 signaling resulted in a loss of wings and appendages with a dramatic reduction in width, indicating that the Wnt-1 signaling pathway is necessary for proper post-embryonic appendage development in T. castaneum. Furthermore, disruption of canonical Wnt signaling led to the complete impairment of limb regeneration in T. castaneum. Our findings suggest that Wnt-1 signaling is a conserved mechanism for appendage development across all holometabolous insects and indicate that the role of Wnt-1 signaling in limb regeneration has been retained across all insects as various modes of limb development evolved. Importantly, this study shows that the availability of the genome sequence and the ease of performing leg ablations make Tribolium an excellent holometabolous insect model for studying regeneration. 相似文献

In order to study endocrine influence upon cholinesterase activity during regeneration, adult newts were hypophysectomized either prior to limb transection or during regeneration. Homogenates of limb tissues were assayed for cholinesterase activity during each stage of regeneration.In animals with pituitaries intact, cholinesterase activity in regenerating limb tissues decreases soon after amputation, and then it rises to the level of activity in intact limbs of normal animals, during the period of differentiation. In hypophysectomized newts there seems to be no alteration of this basic pattern of activity, but removal of the pituitary does result in more elevated levels of enzymatic activity. In the intact forelimbs of control newts undergoing regeneration, cholinesterase activity greatly increases as the other transected limb begins to regenerate but it returns to normal as regeneration progresses. If these animals are hypophysectomized, no such increase is observed during the early stages of regeneration. Rather, there is an initial decrease in cholinesterase activity that is followed by an increase in such activity.These data are compatible with the hypothesis that the pituitary modulates cholinesterase activity in the limb tissues of adult newts. 相似文献

In the present study, we used organ balance across the kidney, splanchnic organs, and lower limb in subjects undergoing diagnostic central venous catheterizations to gain insight into the renal and extrarenal exchange of aminothiols in humans. Although Hcy was released only in low amounts from leg tissues, Cys-Gly (a peptide derived from GSH hydrolysis) was released by both the leg and splanchnic organs, whereas Cys was released by the kidney and taken up by splanchnic organs. The kidney removed approximately 90% of the Cys-Gly released into the circulation. Removal of Cys-Gly by the kidney depended on Cys-Gly arterial levels and showed a high fractional extraction ( approximately 26%), with clearance rates slightly higher than the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Although the average kidney removal of Hcy was not statistically significant, the fractional extraction of Hcy across the kidney varied directly with renal plasma flow. Our data show that thiol metabolism in humans is a compartmentalized interorgan process involving fluxes of individual aminothiols that are parallel and of opposite sign among peripheral tissues, splanchnic organs, and kidney. Cys-Gly is released by peripheral tissue and splanchnic organs from GSH hydrolysis and is taken up by the kidney by GFR; the kidney returns Cys to the circulation to preserve substrate availability for GSH synthesis. On the other hand, Hcy is released by peripheral tissues in low amounts, and its removal by the kidney seems to depend on blood supply. These findings may help explain several alterations in aminothiol metabolism observed in patients with chronic diseases. 相似文献

Regenerative abilities are found ubiquitously among many metazoan taxa. To compare mechanisms underlying the initial stages of limb regeneration between insects and vertebrates, the roles of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling were investigated in the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum. RNA interference-mediated knockdown of MMP2 expression delayed wound healing and subsequent leg regeneration. Additionally, pairwise knockdown of MMP1/2 and MMP2/3, but not MMP1/3, resulted in inhibition of wound closure. Wound healing on the dorsal epidermis after injury was also delayed when MMPs were silenced. Our findings show that functionally redundant MMPs play key roles during limb regeneration and wound healing in Tribolium. This MMP-mediated wound healing is necessary for the subsequent formation of a blastema. In contrast, silencing of FGF receptor did not interfere with the initial stages of leg regeneration despite the alterations in tanning of the cuticle. Thus, insects and vertebrates appear to employ similar developmental processes for the initial stages of wound closure during limb regeneration, while the role of FGF in limb regeneration appears to be unique to vertebrates. 相似文献

In urodele amphibians, limb regeneration is dependent on innervation and is blocked by the administration of colchicine. The objective of this experiment was to determine if colchicine blocks limb regeneration by a direct action on the blastema cells or by an indirect action on the nerves, specifically, if colchicine treatment of the brachial nerves would inhibit limb regeneration in the newt Notophthalmus viridescens. Colchicine was applied to the nerves by implanting a colchicine-loaded silastin block adjacent to the brachial nerves of an amputated newt limb. With appropriate dose levels of colchicine, limb regeneration was completely inhibited. Contralateral control limbs, carrying unloaded silastin blocks, and control limbs with colchicine-loaded blocks implanted equidistant from the blastema, but not adjacent to the brachial nerves, regenerated normally. Thus, the results indicate that the colchicine inhibition of limb regeneration is mediated by colchicine effects on the nerves. The possible mechanism of colchicine action on nerves may involve either wallerian degeneration, or inhibition of axoplasmic transport, or both. 相似文献

Studies of the mechanism of amniotic sac puncture-induced limb abnormalities in mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The principal advantage of chorionic villus sampling (cvs) over amniocentesis for the determination of the genetic constitution of the embryo is that it may be undertaken earlier in pregnancy. If carried out too early in pregnancy, it has the risk of inducing craniofacial and limb abnormalities, a condition termed the oromandibulofacial limb hypogenesis (OMFL) syndrome in genetically normal infants. It is believed that the defects observed have a vascular origin, possibly due to anoxia of tissues due to fetal blood loss or thrombus formation at the site of biopsy with distal embolization. We believe that this does not adequately explain the findings from the experimental animal literature involving amniotic sac puncture (ASP). Based on these experimental findings, we have hypothesised that (i) the defects observed following cvs may result from the consequences of oligohydramnios following the inadvertent puncturing of the amniotic sac during this procedure, and (ii) that cleft palate and the postural limb defects observed (e.g., clubfoot and clubhand) are secondary to embryonic/fetal compression. Our experimental studies shed new light on the mechanism of induction of the limb defects seen, but particularly syndactyly. Evidence of hypoperfusion of the peripheral part of the developing limb bud is observed, which interferes with apoptosis that occurs in the digital interzones, or induces an abnormal degree of cellular proliferation and/or tissue regeneration in these sites, possibly because of over-expression of critical genes involved in limb pattern specification. Cleft palate, tail abnormalities and abnormalities of sternal ossification are also observed in our model. 相似文献

Incompetent perforating veins in the leg were localized separately by clinical and thermographic methods. Clinically, the methods used were a multiple tourniquet test and palpation for fascial defects. Thermographically, the diagnosis of an incompetent perforator was made by finding rapid and localized heat flow to the skin in a cooled limb with occlusion of circulation in the superficial veins distally and proximally. Exploration of all the sites marked clinically or thermographically showed that the clinical method detected 60%, missed 40%, and gave false-positive results in 40%, while thermography detected 94·5%, missed 5·5%, and contributed 13% false-positive results. All these findings show a highly significant difference (P<0.0005) in favour of the thermographic technique as against the clinical method. 相似文献

In spite of numerous investigations of regenerating salamander limbs, little attention has been paid to the details of how joints are reformed. An understanding of the process and mechanisms of joint regeneration in this model system for tetrapod limb regeneration would provide insights into developing novel therapies for inducing joint regeneration in humans. To this end, we have used the axolotl (Mexican Salamander) model of limb regeneration to describe the morphology and the expression patterns of marker genes during joint regeneration in response to limb amputation. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that the mechanisms of joint formation whether it be development or regeneration are conserved. We also have determined that defects in the epiphyseal region of both forelimbs and hind limbs in the axolotl are regenerated only when the defect is small. As is the case with defects in the diaphysis, there is a critical size above which the endogenous regenerative response is not sufficient to regenerate the joint. This non-regenerative response in an animal that has the ability to regenerate perfectly provides the opportunity to screen for the signaling pathways to induce regeneration of articular cartilage and joints. 相似文献

Limb regeneration in amphibians is a representative process of epimorphosis. This type of organ regeneration, in which a mass of undifferentiated cells referred to as the "blastema" proliferate to restore the lost part of the amputated organ, is distinct from morphallaxis as observed, for instance, in Hydra, in which rearrangement of pre-existing cells and tissues mainly contribute to regeneration. In contrast to complete limb regeneration in urodele amphibians, limb regeneration in Xenopus, an anuran amphibian, is restricted. In this review of some aspects regarding adult limb regeneration in Xenopus laevis, we suggest that limb regeneration in adult Xenopus, which is pattern/tissue deficient, also represents epimorphosis. 相似文献

The accessory limb model has become an alternative model for performing investigations of limb regeneration in an amputated limb. In the accessory limb model, a complete patterned limb can be induced as a result of an interaction between the wound epithelium, a nerve and dermal fibroblasts in the skin. Studies should therefore focus on examining these tissues. To date, however, a study of cellular contributions in the accessory limb model has not been reported. By using green fluorescent protein (GFP) transgenic axolotl tissues, we can trace cell fate at the tissue level. Therefore, in the present study, we transgrafted GFP skin onto the limb of a non‐GFP host and induced an accessory limb to investigate cellular contributions. Previous studies of cell contribution to amputation‐induced blastemas have demonstrated that dermal cells are the progenitors of many of the early blastema cells, and that these cells contribute to regeneration of the connective tissues, including cartilage. In the present study, we have determined that this same population of progenitor cells responds to signaling from the nerve and wound epithelium in the absence of limb amputation to form an ectopic blastema and regenerate the connective tissues of an ectopic limb. Blastema cells from dermal fibroblasts, however, did not differentiate into either muscle or neural cells, and we conclude that dermal fibroblasts are dedifferentiated along its developmental lineage. 相似文献

We performed preoperative arteriography and postamputation dissection on a human limb having complete tibial aplasia and preaxial polydactyly. The tibia was replaced by a tendinous band with an attached connective tissue mass. In the leg, the muscles were normal. Muscles usually arising from the tibia arose from the tendinous band, Intrinsic muscles of the foot were absent where skeletal elements were absent and there were supernumerary muscles where there were supernumerary skeletal elements. The tendinous insertions of the muscles that originated in the leg followed the skeletal pattern of the foot. The nerves were normally distributed with the exception that extra branches innervated the supernumerary toes. Both the anterior tibial and peroneal arteries were smaller than normal and progressively reduced in size as they coursed distally and could not be identified below the ankle. The dorsalis pedis artery was absent. The other arteries of the leg and foot were normal with the exception of extra branches supplying the supernumerary toes. The anatomy indicates that the foot is probably a double posterior duplication. Such a defect implies abnormal specification of the foot pattern due to a prespecification event. The tibial remnant with normal leg soft tissues indicates normal specification of the leg pattern and subsequent interruption of tibial morphogenesis due to a postspecification event. The presence of these different types of malformations in the same limb may seem to be contradictory. We suggest, however, that a single teratogenic event occurring at one moment in time could cause combined pre- and postspecification malformations. We further suggest that a diminished anterior tibial artery reduced the number of vessels available for collateral circulation and thus put the limb at risk for subsequent malformation. 相似文献

A comparative analysis of the number of bone marrow cells forming fibroblastic colonies in culture and of the roentgenological characteristics of bone regenerate during different periods of limb elongation was carried out in dogs. The increase in numbers of colony forming cells in the operated bone and decrease of their number in the intact ones were shown to correspond to the period of active osteogenesis. A distinct negative correlation between the number of colony forming cells in humerus and operated bone is considered as an indirect evidence of the migration of these cells from the intact bones. The number of colony forming cells can be used to estimate quantitatively the intensity of osteogenesis upon reparative regeneration under the conditions of limb elongation. 相似文献

Limb regeneration is a complex yet fascinating process observed to some extent in many animal species, though seen in its entirety in urodele amphibians. Accomplished by formation of a morphologically uniform intermediate, the blastema, scientists have long attempted to define the cellular constituents that enable regrowth of a functional appendage. Today, we know that the blastema consists of a variety of multipotent progenitor cells originating from a variety of tissues, and which contribute to limb tissue regeneration in a lineage-restricted manner. By continuing to dissect the role of stem cells in limb regeneration, we can hope to one day modulate the human response to limb amputation and facilitate regrowth of a working replacement. 相似文献

Urodele amphibians can regenerate their limbs. During limb regeneration, dermal fibroblasts are transformed into undifferentiated cells called blastema cells. These dermis–blastema cells show multipotency. Such so-called endogenous reprogramming of cell differentiation is one of the main targets of amphibian limb regeneration studies. It is well recognized that nerve presence controls the initiation of limb regeneration. Accordingly, nerve factors have been sought in amphibian limb regeneration. To investigate it, a relatively new study system called the accessory limb model (ALM) was developed. Using ALM, two signaling cascades (Fgf and Gdf5 signaling) came under focus. In the present study, Growth and differentiation factor-5 (Gdf5) application to wounded skin initiated limb regeneration responses and resulted in induction of a blastema-like structure in the absence of a nerve. However, the Gdf5-induced structure showed defects as a regeneration blastema, such as absence of detectable Prrx1 expression by in situ hybridization. The defects could be remedied by additional Fibroblasts growth factor (Fgf) inputs. These two inputs (Gdf5 and Fgfs) were sufficient to substitute for the nerve functions in the induction of limb regeneration. Indeed, Fgf2, Fgf8, and Gdf5 applications with the contralateral skin graft resulted in limb formation without nerve supply. Furthermore, acquisition of cartilage differentiation potential of dermal fibroblasts was tested in an in vivo and in vitro combination assay. Dermal fibroblasts cultured with Gdf5 were difficult to participate in cartilage formation when the cultured cells were grafted into cartilage forming region. In contrast, dermal fibroblasts cultured with Fgf2 and Fgf8 became easier to participate into cartilage formation in the same procedure. These results contribute to our understanding of molecular mechanisms of the early phase of amphibian limb regeneration. 相似文献

After tail and limb amputation in lizard, injection of 5BrdU for 6 days produces immunolabelled cells in most tissues of tail and limb stumps. After further 8 and 16 days, and 14 and 22 days of regeneration, numerous 5BrdU-labelled cells are detected in regenerating tail and limb, derived from most stump tissues. In tail blastema cone at 14 days, sparse-labelled cells remain in proximal dermis, muscles, cartilaginous tube and external layers of wound epidermis but are numerous in the blastema. In apical regions at 22 days of regeneration, labelled mesenchymal cells are sparse, while the apical wound epidermis contains numerous labelled cells in suprabasal and external layers, indicating cell accumulation from more proximal epidermis. Cell proliferation dilutes the label, and keratinocytes take 8 days to migrate into corneous layers. In healing limbs, labelled cells remain sparse from 14 to 22 days of regeneration in wound epidermis and repairing tissues and little labelling dilution occurs indicating low cell proliferation for local tissue repair but not distal growth. Labelled cells are present in epidermis, intermuscle and peri-nerve connectives, bone periosteum, cartilaginous callus and sparse fibroblasts, leading to the formation of a scarring outgrowth. Resident stem cells and dedifferentiation occur when stump tissues are damaged. 相似文献
