519 Effect of Partialthickness Tear of Supraspinatus on the Distribution of Tendon Stress:Finite Element Analysis
Xing Qiujuan 1,Zhao Dongfeng 2,Dai Weiwei 3,et al
Objective  To study the effect of partial-thickness tear of the supraspinatus tendon by finite element analysis.Methods  The shoulder of volunteer was scanned by CT.The CT images were imported into Mimics 16.0,and segmented scapula,proximal humerus,supraspinatus muscle,and thenthe models were imported into Geomagic studio 2012 to fit the NURBS surface of the models.The supraspinatus tendon was divided into 3 regions.According to the damage depth,3 model were build (A group 20%,B group 40%,C group 60%).All models were meshed in Hypermesh 13.0,and normal supraspinatus muscle injury model was uesed as control.Through changing the relative position of glenoid humeral joint,the above models were fixed at different abduction degree (0°、30°、60°、90°).Then all models were exported to Abaqus 6.14.Results  a)During the abduction of the shoulder,the middle region of the supraspinatus was the most stressed,followed by the anterior and posterior regions.b)With the increase of shoulder abduction angle,the stress produced by supraspinatus muscle was maximal at abduction of 30°,which was significantly different from other abduction angles (P<0.05).The stress of tendon in 90 °abduction angles was still significantly greater than that of 0°angles,and there was a significant difference (P<0.05).c) In the three groups of anterior and posterior region injury,the tendon stress in group C was significantly greater than that in group A and group B (P<0.01),and there was no significant difference between group A and B group (P>0.05).d) In the three groups of middle area injuries,the tendon stress in group B and group C was significantly greater than that in group A (P<0.01),and there was no significant difference between group B and group C (P>0.05).Conclusion  The stress in the middle supraspinatus is significantly higher than that in the anterior and posterior regions.The depth of injury is 40% at the middle part of supraspinatus,and 60% at the anterior and posterior parts,that can cause the stress concentration around the injured tendons and extend to full thickness injury,that should be actively reconstructed.

523 Study on the Mechanism of SIRT1 Toregulates Osteoblast Differentiation Through the PI3K/AKT Pathway
Zhi Liqiang 1,Yang Yixin 2,Xu Mao 3,et al
Objective  To studying the interaction between the SIRT1 gene and the PI3K-AKT pathway and investigate the effect of SIRT1 on osteoblast differentiation. Methods  Osteoblasts were extracted from the skull of Sprague Dawley rats and cultured for 3~4 passages.Then Cells were randomized into control group,resveratrol group and resveratrol + EX-527 group.Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to determine the cytotoxicity of resveratrol and EX-527.Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red S staining were used to detect ALP levels and calcium nodules,respectively.Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the production of type I collagen to determine the differentiation of cells.The expression of SIRT1,Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2),Osteopontin (OPN) and the phosphorylation levels of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase(PI3K)andprotein kinaseB(AKT).Results  Resveratrol and EX-527 had no effect on cell proliferation (P>0.05).ALP level and calcium nodules increased significantly after addition of resveratrol,but decreased significantly after addition of EX-527.The amont of Type I collagen were up-regulated because of the resveratrol.The expression of RUNX2 and OPN in osteoblast increased with the increase of SIRT1 expression (P<0.01 or P<0.001).When SIRT1 was inhibited,the protein expression of related factors also decreased (P<0.001).Concurrently,the phosphorylated levels of PI3K and AKT also showed SIRT1-dependent up-regulation and down-regulation (P<0.05 or P<0.001).Conclusion  The effect of SIRT1 on rat osteoblast differentiation may be mediated through the PI3K-AKT pathway.
