2.Differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells towards nucleus pulposus-like cells induced by three-dimensional scaffold in vitro
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(38):7417-7421
BACKGROUND: The nucleus pulposus tissue engineering is regarded as an ideal method in repairing intervertebral disc degeneration. However, the resource of nucleus pulposus cells is limited, so seed cell plays a vital role in nucleus pulposus (NP) tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE: To verify whether adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) can differentiate into NP-like cells induced by three-dimensional scaffold. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: An in vitro observation based on cell-materials level was performed at the Orthopaedic Research Institute, General Hospital of Beijing Military Area Command of Chinese PLA from July to December 2008. MATERIALS: Three Japanese big-eared rabbits with 3-months old were provided by Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd., and the medical chitosan was purchased from Golden-shell Biochemical Co., Ltd. METHODS: The ADSCs were isolated from the rabbit adipose and then subcultured with collagenase digestion. The second ADSCs were prepared 50 uL cell suspension (5×10~6 cells), and mixed with 150 uL chitosan-alginate (C/A) and cultured in a12-well plate for 20 minutes in room temperature to obtain C/A gel. The experiment divided into 3 groups, in the control group, 2 mL DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum was added; DMEM containing bovine serum albumin, transforming growth factor-1 (TGF), hexadecadrol, vitamin C, bone morphogenetic protein-7,1% ITS was added, and then cultured with 2% O_2 or 20% O_2. All the samples were placed in incubator at a humidified atmosphere of 5% O_2 at 37 V for 21 days. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Histomorphological observation; levels of proteoglycan, as well as type II collagen. RESULTS: The scanning electron microscopy showed that ADSCs grew well on the chitosan-alginate scaffolds, which was positive to oil-O staining and Alcian blue staining. More proteoglycan was produced. With time increasing, there was no significant change in the proteoglycan content and type II collagen in the control group. The content of proteoglycan and collagen type II was higher in the induced group, which had difference to the control group (P < 0.001, P < 0.05). Meantime, the expression of collagen type II and proteoglycan was greater in hypoxia-induced group than that of normoxia-induced group (P<0.05, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Rabbit ADSCs growing on the scaffolds of chitosan-alginate gel may differentiate towards NP-like cells under certain conditions, especially better under hypoxia state.

Objective To explore the relationship of personality and coping style between parents and male inpatients with internet addiction disorder. Methods 51 male inpatients with internet addiction disorder and their parents were investigated with Cattell 16PF and Coping Style Questionnaire to evaluate their personality and coping style. All data were analyzed by partial correlate analysis. Results Multi-factors of 16PF( warmth, reasoning, emotional stability, dominance, vigilance, sensitivity, abstractedness, privateness, openness to change, perfectionism, apprehension, tension ) of male inpatients were significantly correlated with father' s ( r = 0.72 ~ 0. 85 or - 0. 71 ~ - 0.93 ) or mother' s 16PF( r = 0.73 ~ 0.92 or - 0. 72 ~ - 0.81 ), bu+ non of those factors corrected with the same factor of parental. Male inpatients' coping style did not corrected with father' s, but their problem sloving, rationalization and self-accusation corrected with mother's seeking support, rationalization and avoidance respectively. Conclusion The personality of male inpatients with internet addiction disorder is affected by parental personality, but under the impact of internet addiction disorder, this kind of influence is weakened. In coping style, the father' s influence is far weaker than the mother' s, suggesting that there is father function flaw during the process of those inpatients growing up.

The stability of the intraocular lens ( IOL ) after cataract surgery is composed of decentration, tilt, rotation, and the change of anterior chamber depth. Its stability is an important factor affecting postoperative visual quality. By analyzing the related factors which influence the stability of intraocular lens, improvements can be identified for future cataract operations. The stability of intraocular lens is influenced by many factors: intraocular structure, the size and the symmetry of intraoperative capsulorhexis, the position of the intraocular lens, the material and design of the intraocular lens, etc. In order to improve the patient's vision, cataract surgeries have been experiencing an evolution. IOL material have also been contributing to such innovations.

Abstract? AIM: To analyze the ocular manifestations of meningiomas in the trigone of the lateral ventricle, discuss the relevant factors of visual impairment in these patients and things need attention clinically.?METHODS:Retrospectively study on the clinical data of 90 eyes in 45 patients diagnosed of trigonal meningiomas treated at Beijing Tian Tan Hospital from October 2011 to October 2015.Preoperative examinations including visual acuity, optic disc findings, visual field, size of tumors and other change in MRI were analyzed.?RESULTS: Patients'age was 12-68 years old ( mean 41.7 ±13.7 years ). Male/female ratio was 1 ∶4.6. Decreased visual acuity occurred in 18 eyes.Optic disc edema was found in 24 eyes and optic disc pale in 6 eyes. Fourty -seven eyes had visual field defect, mostly homonymous hemianopia or defect. The maximum diameter of tumors was 2.1-9.6cm (4.8±1.7cm).Range of tumor volume was 3.02-193.2cm3(48.3±47.8cm3).A positive correlation of preoperative visual field defect was found with tumor volume, tumor maximum diameter, and brain midline shift respectively. While the preoperative visual field defect was not found any correlation with age, gender, course, and the enlargement of the ventricle and the edema of the tissue around the tumors. After Mann-Whitney U test, the differences on tumor volume, the maximum diameter of tumors, and brain midline shift between the two groups were significant.? CONCLUSION: Patients with trigonal meningiomas often have ocular signs and symptoms.The major reason of visual field defect is the damage of optic radiation around the tumor.The specific position of injured optic radiation determines the type and extent of visual field defect.Both ophthalmologist and neurosurgeon should pay attention to tumors nearby posterior visual pathway. Doing neurophthalmology examinations for these patients and realizing the position between the tumor and posterior visual pathway will be helpful and necessary in surgical planning.
