Abstract
Estrone (E1) is a common environmental contaminant found in rivers and streams due to the farming of animals, such as swine and cattle. Our study evaluated the effects of chronic E1 exposure at environmentally relevant concentrations on spermatogenesis and the semen quality of zebrafish (Danio rerio). We exposed the fish to E1 at concentrations of 20, 200, and 2000 ng/L diluted in 0.001% ethanol (v/v) for 49 days. There were two control groups: one was exposed to water only and the other to ethanol at the same concentration used in the E1 groups. Following exposure, we analyzed the proportion of testicular cell types and other components (%), rate of cell proliferation and death, and sex steroid concentrations. Furthermore, we analyzed the expression of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), IGF2, IGF1 receptor (IGF1R), and inducible nitric oxide synthase and assessed the semen quality. E1 exposure increased spermatogonia, spermatids, Sertoli cells, Leydig cells, and the proportion of inflammatory infiltrate but decreased the spermatozoa amount. These changes were reflected by reductions in the gonadosomatic index and levels of 11-ketotestosterone in the testes. On the other hand, E1 exposure increased testicular estradiol, IGF1R expression, and nitric oxide production. After an evaluation using a computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA) system, we observed reduced progressive motility, curvilinear velocity, and beat cross frequency of 20 and 2000 ng/L E1 groups. Our findings support that E1 causes deleterious effects on the testicular function and semen quality of D. rerio even at environmental concentrations. Thus, E1 concentrations should be monitored in surface waters for the purposes of fish conservation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nitric oxide and GnRH are biological factors that participate in the regulation of reproductive functions. To our knowledge, there are no studies that link NO and GnRH in the sympathetic ganglia. Thus, the aim of the present work was to investigate the influence of NO on GnRH release from the coeliac ganglion and its effect on luteal regression at the end of pregnancy in the rat. METHODS The ex vivo system composed by the coeliac ganglion, the superior ovarian nerve, and the ovary of rats on day 21 of pregnancy was incubated for 180 min with the addition, into the ganglionic compartment, of L-NG-nitro arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a non-selective NO synthase inhibitor. The control group consisted in untreated organ systems. RESULTS The addition of L-NAME in the coeliac ganglion compartment decreased NO as well as GnRH release from the coeliac ganglion. In the ovarian compartment, and with respect to the control group, we observed a reduced release of GnRH, NO, and noradrenaline, but an increased production of progesterone, estradiol, and expression of their limiting biosynthetic enzymes, 3β-HSD and P450 aromatase, respectively. The inhibition of NO production by L-NAME in the coeliac ganglion compartment also reduced luteal apoptosis, lipid peroxidation, and nitrotyrosine, whereas it increased the total antioxidant capacity within the corpora lutea. CONCLUSION Collectively, the results indicate that NO production by the coeliac ganglion modulates the physiology of the ovary and luteal regression during late pregnancy in rats.

Abstract
Kartogenin (KGN) can effectively promote the differentiation of adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) into chondrocytes. With the help of three-dimensional slow-release technology, nano-microspheres are generated and used for cartilage repair. First, KGN solution was prepared, which was dissolved in distilled water, and NaOH solution, HEPES buffer, sodium chloride particles, and hydroxyapatite (HA) solution were added to prepare KGN-HA gel solution containing KGN. ADSCs were isolated from the posterior iliac of four-week-old New Zealand rabbits. After 0.5 mL of rabbit second-generation ADSCs suspension was taken, 2 mL KGN-HA gel solution was added, and they were mixed well to obtain ADSCs/KGN-HA gel. After drying treatment, ADSCs/KGN-HA nanospheres were precipitated. In the experiment, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Staphylococcus aureus (MIC) > 2 μg/mL in each group of KGN-HA gel solution was reached within 30 days. Group K3 had the highest KGN encapsulation rate and the largest cumulative release. The biological activity of ADSCs was good in the ADSCs/KGN-HA nanoparticle solution. After two weeks of incubation, the nanospheres were positive for type II collagen staining/toluidine blue staining, that was, chondrocyte phenotype. The rabbit knee articular cartilage defect model was established. The defect part was filled with ADSCs/KGN-HA gel, which was similar in color to the surrounding tissues. The two sides of the tissue section and the surrounding cartilage tissue healed well, and no carrier material remained. Moreover, the cells were round, with cartilage lacuna formed around them, and after the simple periosteum was covered and repaired, the surface was sunken. The cell structure changed, and the healing with the surroundings was poor. In summary, under the slow release of KGN, ADSCs/KGN-HA nanospheres made ADSCs maintain a good biological form, which grew and proliferated normally. The ADSCs/KGN-HA nanoparticles cultured in vitro had a good repair effect on the animal model of articular cartilage defects.

Abstract
The therapeutic potential of nitric oxide (NO) has been highly attractive to tumor treatment, especially for surmounting the multidrug resistance (MDR) of cancer. However, the NO-involved therapy remains extremely challenging because of the difficulty to simultaneously control the NO release rate and real-time concentration. Herein, we construct NO-containing polymersomes with high amount of NO donors inherently grown on the polymer chains to keep the stability. These polymersomes can be simultaneously loaded with photosensitizer of IR780 iodide on the membrane layer and chemotherapeutic of DOX·HCl in the lumen. NO release can be triggered by the reduction conditions, and further accelerated by remote NIR irradiation due to the increased local temperature. The instantaneous NO release with high concentration significantly inhibits the P-gp expression and sensitize the chemotherapy, thus overcoming the tumor MDR and improving the anti-tumor activity. Meanwhile, DOX·HCl release is highly promoted at the intracellular conditions because of the cleavage of acid-labile cis-aconitic amide at endo/lysosomal pH, and the improved hydrophilicity of the membrane layer after NO release. The in vivo results show that the single intravenous injection of polymersome formulation companying with NIR irradiation exerts multi-modal therapies of chemotherapy, PTT/PDT, and NO-therapy on the MCF-7/R tumor models, showing superior and combinational treatment efficacy with the complete eradication of tumors and few side effects.

Abstract
A variety of gadolinium (Gd) based nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized due to the unique magnetic properties of Gd-containing rare earth compounds and the particularity of micro/nano-materials, which were then incorporated into hydroxyapatite (HA) to obtain inorganic-organic composite materials. Then, HA/Gd NPs containing slow-release transforming growth factor (TGF-β1) were harvested. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were extracted from the adipose tissue of a four-month-old New Zealand white rabbit. HA/Gd NPs were attached to absorbable gelatin sponge to obtain HA/Gd NPs/gelatin sponge composite scaffold. In addition, the third generation ADSCs were taken and cultured in the composite scaffold, so that ADSCs-HA/Gd bio-nanocomposites were obtained. The in vitro culture test of osteoblast MC3T3-E1 showed that Gd-containing NPs had good biocompatibility. The prepared HA/Gd NPs loaded with TGF-β1 were spherical, with an average particle size of (9.16 ± 3.16) μm. The NPs were easy to aggregate and adherent. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test results showed that TGF-β1 in NPs was sustained and released continuously for 29 days. HA/Gd NPs/gelatin sponge composite scaffold combined with ADSCs were co-cultured for three days, and the electron microscope showed that the HA/Gd NPs were dispersed, and the cells could adhere and grow well. Then, animal models of rabbit knee articular cartilage defects were established and were rolled into three groups (ADSCs-HA/Gd nano group, HA/Gd nano scaffold group, and blank control). The repair area of the rabbit knee of ADSCs-HA/Gd nano group was smooth and flat, the scaffold was absorbed, the toluidine blue stain was positive, and the type II collagen immunohistochemical stain was positive. In general, ADSCs-HA/Gd nanomaterials were helpful for chondrogenic cell differentiation and had certain adoption prospects in the field of tissue engineering to repair cartilage defects.

Abstract
It is assumed that nitric oxide synthase and nitric oxide are involved in the regulation of female reproduction. This study aimed to assess the roles of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in follicular development. The endothelial NOS (eNOS) inhibitor L-NAME, inducible NOS (iNOS) inhibitor S-Methylisothiourea (SMT) and NOS substrate L-arginine (L-Arg) were used in the NOS inhibition models in vivo. Neonatal female rats were treated with phosphate buffer saline (PBS, control), L-NAME (L-NG-Nitroarginine Methyl Ester, 40 mg/kg), SMT (S-Methylisothiourea, 10 mg/kg), L-NAME + SMT, or L-Arg (L-arginine, 50 mg/kg) via subcutaneous (SC) injection on a daily basis for 19 consecutive days, with the samples being collected on specific postnatal days (PD5, PD10, and PD19). The results indicated that the number of antral follicles, the activity of total-NOS, iNOS, neuronal NOS (nNOS), and eNOS, and the content of NO in the ovary were significantly (p < 0.05) increased in the L-Arg group at PD19, while those in L + S group were significantly (p < 0.05) decreased. Meanwhile, the ovarian expression in the L-Arg group in terms of p-AKT, p-FoxO3a, and LC3-II on PD19 were significantly (p < 0.05) upregulated, while the expressions of PTEN and cleaved Caspase-3 were (p < 0.05) downregulated as a result of NOS/NO generation, respectively. Therefore, the results suggest that NOS is possibly involved in the maturation of follicular development to puberty via the PI3K/ AKT/FoxO3a pathway, through follicular autophagia and apoptosis mechanisms.

Abstract
Our aim was to investigate if acetylcholine (Ach), added to the celiac ganglion-superior ovarian nerve-ovary system (CG-SON-ovary) or in ovary incubations, modifies the release of progesterone (P4), androstenedione (A2), dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), and alters the expression of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD), 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20α-HSD), and apoptotic genes in ovarian tissue during the diestrous II (DII) in rats. The CG-SON-ovary system or the ovary alone were removed and placed into separate cuvettes both containing Krebs-Ringer solution (control groups). In experimental groups, 10-6 M Ach was added into the ganglion compartment or into the ovary compartment. P4, A2 and GnRH were measured by RIA, mRNA expression by RT-PCR, and catecholamines by HPLC. In addition, a routine histological technique was applied. In ex-vivo system, 10-6 M Ach into the ganglion compartment decreased P4 and NE release, altered 3β-HSD and 20α-HSD expression, and decreased bax/bcl-2 ratio, while increasing the release of A2 and DA, and bcl-2 expression. In ovary incubations, 10-6 M Ach decreased P4 and GnRH release, decreased 3β-HSD and bcl-2 expression, increased A2 release, increased 20α-HSD and bax expression, and the bax/bcl-2 ratio, and induced disorganization of the corpus luteum structure. The peripheral nervous system protected the ovary from the apoptotic mechanisms while in the ovary incubation the effect was reversed. Our results indicate that Ach in DII regulates steroidogenesis and apoptosis in the ovary, by modulating the concentration of neurotransmitters. In vivo, an alteration in the extrinsic cholinergic innervation of the ovary could disrupt the endocrine control of the reproductive function.
