Objective To explore the immunogenicity of a novel bionic scaffold of nucleus pulposus tissue engineering. Methods The biocompatibility of a subcutaneously implanted scaffold of nucleus pulposus tissue engineering was studied in SD rats by analyzing tissue reactions up to 3 months using histological and ultrastructural methods. The expression of IFN-?, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA was measured by RT-PCR, and the levels of serum antibodies to porcine type Ⅱ collagen were measured by ELISA. Results There was less inflammatory reaction in rats induced by subcutaneously implanted scaffold. By degrees, a granulation tissue had developed within the implant, which had disappeared by 3 months. The expression of IFN-?, IL-2 mRNA by RT-PCR was of no changes. But the expression of IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA increased, which meant the implant induced Th cell into Th2 cell and the induction inhibited the inflammatory reaction. No antibodies to porcine type Ⅱ collagen were found in the sera of implanted rats. Conclusion There was less immunogenicity in rats induced by implanted scaffold of nucleus pulposus tissue engineering.

Objective To design and construct a new bionic scaffold of nucleus pulposus tissue engineering. Methods The collagen-hyaluronic acid (HyA) matrices were prepared, and mixed with Collagen type Ⅱ (pH 1-2) and lyophilized. 6-chondroitin sulfate (CS) was covalently attached to collagen using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS). Afterwards the initial structure of bionic scaffolds was evaluated. Results The bionic scaffolds were porous structure, of which the pore size was 89-132 ?m, the porosity was 94.8%. Water-binding capacity of resulting matrices was 79.2%, and the denaturation temperature was 74.6 ℃. Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content was 224 mg/g, and the elastic modulus was 0.673 MPa. Conclusion Composition and tissue structure between the scaffolds are similar to the extracellular matrices of nucleus pulposus. The bionic scaffold is an ideal scaffold material of nucleus pulposus tissue engineering in structure. Further experiment is required on the biocompatibility of the novel scaffolds.

Objective To summarize the technique and evaluate the effect of anesthesia for off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB). Methods From 1997 through March of 2005, five hundred and forty-three consecutive patients undergoing OPCAB were retrospectively studied. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.05~0.12mg/kg, ketamine 0~0.5mg/kg and fentanyl 5~15?g/?kg. Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane 0.3%~1.5% and oxygen, combined with propofol 1~3mg/(kg?h). Intraoperative hypotension resulting from either surgical procedure or anesthetics should be dealt with inotropes immediately. Results Intraoperative hemodynamics deviation was tolerated with the support of inotropics. The mean extubation time was 5.8?1.6h. The ICU stay was 0.5 to 2.0 day. The patients were discharged in 8.0?1.2 days. Two patients met sudden death in the second postoperative day. Conclusion Rational use of anesthetics and inotropics to stabilize hemodynamics during operation plays a key role in successful OPCAB.

Objective To assess the clinical diagnostic value of left atrial function index (LAFI) for heart failure with normal left ventricular ejection fraction (HFNEF).Methods One hundred and ten patients with HFNEF were divided into 3 groups by New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac functional grading:NYHA Ⅱ grade group (43 cases),NYHA Ⅲ grade group (40 cases) and NYHA Ⅳ grade group (27 cases),and another 33 healthy subjects were selected as control group.The 4 groups were examined by ultrasoundcardiogram,LAFI and E/E' were calculated,and the plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)levels were determined.The relation between LAFI and NYHA cardiac functional grading and the correlation between LAFI and plasma BNP,E/E' were observed.Results The worse heart function,the higher plasma BNP and E/E',and the lower LAFI,and there were statistical differences [control group:(40.9 ± 26.1) ng/L,6.4 ± 2.0,0.73 ± 0.10,NYHA Ⅱ grade group:(230.1 ± 85.9) ng/L,10.0 ± 3.7,0.46 ± 0.30,NYHA Ⅲ grade group:(398.6 ±98.7) ng/L,16.9 ±4.0,0.26 ± 0.30,NYHA Ⅳ grade group:(680.3 ± 146.6) ng/L,23.8 ± 3.9,0.17 ± 0.20,P < 0.05].The correlation analysis results showed that LAFI and plasma BNP,E/E' were negatively correlated in patients with HFNEF (r =-0.868,-0.873,P < 0.01).Conclusions In HFNEF patients,there is significant correlation between LAFI and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.LAFI can well diagnose diastolic heart failure early and evaluate the diastolic function of the left ventricle.
