Application methods of a nano layered double include: applying the nano layered double hydroxide in promoting chondrogenic differentiation of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells, and applying the nano layered double hydroxide in preparing drugs for promoting cartilage regeneration, promoting intervertebral disc repair, or treating intervertebral disc degeneration. Compared to human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells without an addition of the nano layered double hydroxide, the human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells with the addition of the nano layered double hydroxide have a better and faster ability to differentiate into chondrocytes and broad application prospects.

Application of nano layered double hydroxide in cartilage regeneration and preparation thereof

Disclosed is a nano-layered dual hydroxide-biological factor combined system for promoting nerve regeneration to repair a spinal cord injury. The preparation method therefor comprises: 1) synthesizing a nano-layered dual hydroxide CL1; and 2) co-incubating 10 mg CL1 and 200-2000 ng of biological factors NT3, VEGF or bFGF in a low-speed shaker at 4&#xb0; C. for 2 hours using an ion exchange method, centrifuging same and then obtaining the precipitate. Experiments on transection and resorption spinal cord injury models show that this combined system has a significant recovery effect on the behavior of model mice, can reconstruct the neural circuit of a damaged area over time and achieves an ideal repair effect with regard to a spinal cord injury.
