In this paper, nano-Al2O3 was added to soybean oil to improve its anti-wear and anti-friction properties, and the effects of four different dispersants on the suspension stability of nano-Al2O3 in soybean oil were compared. Using HRS-2M high speed reciprocating friction tester, the anti-wear and anti-friction effects of Al2O3 nanofluid were tested. The anti-wear and anti-friction mechanism and wetting properties of Al2O3 nanofluid were studied by using probe 3D profilometer, contact angle measuring instrument, scanning electron microscope and energy spectrometer. The results showed that sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) had the best suspension stability of nano-Al2O3 in soybean oil. Nano-Al2O3 could effectively improve the anti-wear and anti-friction performances of soybean oil. When the mass fraction of nano-Al2O3 was 2.0 %, the contact angle was the smallest and the anti-wear and anti-friction performances were the best. The action mechanism of Al2O3 nanoparticles was analyzed by combining EDS results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BACKGROUND: Icariin has been shown to have osteoprotective effects, but its feasibility as a growth factor in bone tissue engineering has not yet been determined. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of different doses of icariin on osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs), and to explore the possible mechanisms involved. METHODS: The primary hBMSCs model was established. MTT method was adopted to select the optimal concentration range of icariin for the treatment of hBMSCs without obvious cytotoxicity, and within this range, four concentration groups (10-9,10-8,10-7,10-6 mol/L) were graded to treat hBMSCs. Effects of icariin on the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs were confirmed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and mineralized nodule formation. Expression levels of Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osterix (OSX), ALP. bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and platelet-derived growth factor alpha polypeptide (PDGFA) during osteogenic differentiation were detected by real-time PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Treatment with icariin increased the activity of ALP and the number of calcified nodules in a concentration-dependent manner compared with the control group. (2) After treatment with 10-6 mol/L icariin, mRNA expressions of Runx2, OSX, ALP. BMP-2 and PDGFA were higher reative to those in the control group. That is to say, icariin can effectively promote the osteogenic differentiation hBMSCs. probably by enhancing the expression of osteogenesis-related genes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
