Introduction: The low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is one of the popular treatment modalities allowing to boost the proliferation, differentiation, and migratory activity of cells, which might be a powerful strategy for anti-aging. Seeking a novel setup for LIPUS would benefit the development of ultrasound therapeutics. Methods: Here, we proposed a novel underwater exposure setup of LIPUS. C57BL/6 mice were reared in the designated age-groups, which consisted of a middle-aged group (12–14 months) and an old-age group (20–23 months). The age-related changes of body composition, imbalance of energy supply and demand, imbalance of signal network maintaining internal stability, and representative phenotypes of neurodegeneration and neuroplasticity with the presence and absence of underwater LIPUS in middle-aged and aged groups were evaluated. Results: The results showed that there were obvious aging changes, imbalance of energy supply and demand, imbalance of signal network maintaining homeostasis, neurodegeneration, and damage of neural plasticity in the middle-aged and aged group with or without the LIPUS. Although middle-aged group and aged group responded differently to LIPUS, they mostly generated positive results in relieving bone loss, improving ovarian structure, regulated immune system, and enhanced endurance ability, which should have declined over age. Discussion: These findings indicate that underwater extracorporeal LIPUS exposure could be employed as single or combined anti-aging strategies that generated positive outcomes against the process of aging.

Objectives: To explore the ameliorating effects of low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on Sprague Dawley rat myelosuppression induced by cell cycle specificity drugs (docetaxel, mitotic phase sensitive; and etoposide, gap 2 phase sensitive). Methods: Rats were respectively administered docetaxel (100 mg/kg) or etoposide (110 mg/kg) by intraperitoneal injection for 4 consecutive days. Then the rats were divided randomly into a LIPUS group and a non‐LIPUS group. In the LIPUS group, the right femoral metaphysis of rats was treated by LIPUS (acoustic intensity, 200 mW/cm2; frequency, 0.3 MHz; and duty cycle, 20%) for 20 minutes on 7 consecutive days from day 5. The rats of the non‐LIPUS group were treated without ultrasound output. A blood cell count, an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay, a real‐time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and hematoxylin–eosin staining were applied to detect the results. Results: Low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound significantly promoted the counts of bone marrow nucleated cells, white blood cells, immunoglobulin A (IgA), IgG, granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor, stem cell factor, and intercellular cell adhesion molecule 1 and reduced the counts of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 whether in the docetaxel or etoposide group (P <.05). Low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound only increased the expression level of IgM in the docetaxel group but decreased the level of interleukin 6 in the etoposide group (P <.05). Conclusions: Low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound has potential to be a noninvasive treatment for myelosuppression caused by different cell cycle–sensitive chemotherapy drugs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In terms to investigate the effect of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) for differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and the feasibility of simultaneously inducing into osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells within the cell culture medium in which two inductive agents are added at the same time with or without LIPUS. Cells were divided into a non-induced group, an osteoblast-induced group, a vascular endothelial-induced group, and a bidirectional differentiation-induced group. Each group was further subdivided into LIPUS and non-LIPUS groups. The cell proliferation in each group was measured by MTT assay. Cell morphological and ultrastructural changes were observed by inverted phase contrast microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The differentiation of BMSCs was detected by confocal microscopy, flow cytometry and quantitative RT-PCR. Results demonstrated that both osteoblast and vascular endothelial cell differentiation markers were expressed in the bidirectional differentiation induction group and early osteogenesis and angiogenesis appeared. The cell proliferation, differentiation rate and expression of osteocalcin and vWF in the LIPUS groups were all significantly higher than those in the corresponding non-LIPUS group (p <.05), suggesting LIPUS treatment can promote the differentiation efficiency and rate of BMSCs, especially in the bidirectional differentiation induction group. This study suggests the combination of LIPUS and dual-inducing agents could induce and accelerate simultaneous differentiation of BMSCs to osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells. These findings indicate the method could be applied to research on generating vascularized bone tissue with a shape and function that mimics natural bone to accelerate early osteogenesis and angiogenesis.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on cyclophosphamide (CTX)‐induced rabbit myelosuppression. Methods: Rabbits (n = 90) were randomly divided into a mild myelosuppression group (n = 40), a severe myelosuppression group (n = 40), and a normal control group (group Cu28; n = 10). The mild and severe myelosuppression models were established by daily ear vein injection of 15‐ and 40‐mg/kg CTX for 4 continuous days, respectively. Then they were randomly divided into LIPUS groups (Au and Bu) and control groups (Ac and Bc). LIPUS was applied once per day for 20 minutes for 7 (Au7 and Bu7) and 28 (Au28 and Bu28) days. Physical conditions, mortality, blood cell counts, and bone marrow proliferation were calculated. Erythropoietin interleukin 3, and granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor levels were measured by an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect the granulocyte phagocytosis rate. Hematoxylin‐eosin staining was performed to analyze changes of skin and muscle. Results: Compared with the control group, LIPUS improved the number of peripheral blood cells (P < .05) and bone marrow nucleated cells and reduced the mortality of rabbits with myelosuppression of different degrees. Long‐term treatment for 28 days had no effect on the levels of erythropoietin, interleukin 3, and granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor and granulocyte phagocytosis (P > .05). The parts of the skin where LIPUS was applied did not show any burning marks, and the muscle tissue in the path of LIPUS acoustic channels showed no obvious pathologic changes. Conclusions: Low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound is a safe and effective method to relieve CTX‐induced myelosuppression. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
