BACKGROUND:We have previously prepared acellular nerve graft and implanted bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into the graft, to successful y construct tissue engineered artificial nerves.
OBJECTIVE:Horseradish peroxidase nerve retrograde tracer technique was used to evaluate protective effects on sensory neurons fol owing sciatic nerve defect bridging with tissue engineered artificial nerves constructed by acellular nerve graft and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in rats.
METHODS:Adult, clean, healthy, male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to three group:(1) Experimental group:Rat sciatic nerve detect was bridged by acellular nerve graft combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells;(2) Blank control group:Rat sciatic nerve defect was bridged by acellular nerve graft;(3) Autologous nerve control group:Rat sciatic nerve defect was bridged by autologous nerve transplantation. Regeneration of sensory neurons in the spinal dorsal root ganglia was assessed using horseradish peroxidase nerve retrograde tracer technique at 12 weeks fol owing surgery.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Sensory neuron regeneration in the spinal dorsal root ganglia at 12 weeks fol owing surgery was better in the experimental group compared with blank control group. No significant difference was detected between experimental group and autologous nerve control group. S-100 immunohistochemical staining in plantar skin showed brown positive reaction in each group. These findings indicate that tissue engineered artificial nerves constructed by acellular nerve graft and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have protective effects on sensory neurons in the spinal dorsal root ganglia, and can promote the recovery of sensory function and repair sciatic nerve defect in rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of nutrition support therapy on quality of life in patients with advanced tumors.Methods 70 patients with advanced tumors were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,each group had 35 cases.The control group was given conservative treatment,together with the ordinary liquid,semi-liquid or diet.The observation group was given nutrition support therapy on the basis of conservative therapy.The nutrition and immune index and symptom score,quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results The nutrition,immune indexes (Alb,BMI and NK) and symptom score (malaise,anorexia,insomnia,pain) of the observation group were significantly improved(t =7.92,6.98,5.56,7.41,6.47,5.61,4.52,all P ＜ 0.05),which were significantly better than those of the control group(t =4.42,4.10,4.03,6.42,5.60,4.83,4.23,all P ＜0.05).The physical function,role function,emotional function,cognitive function score and total score of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant (t =8.12,6.08,5.12,4.78,4.32,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Nutrition support therapy can improve the nutritional status of cancer patients in advanced stage,relieve symptoms,improve immune function and quality of life,which is worthy of clinical application.

BACKGROUND: To summarize the feature and clinical application of various injectable bone substitutes.DATA SOURCES: The computer-based research was done in Pubmed database for articles concerning various injectable bone substitutes published from January 1995 to May 2009 with the key words of "injectable bone substitute, bone injury" in titles and abstracts. Literatures of the same fields published in recent years or in authorized journals were selected.DATA SELECTION: Latest literatures addressing feature and clinical application of various injectable bone substitutes were selected; old and repetitive studies were excluded. Finally, 21 articles were included.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Feature and clinical application of various injectable bone substitutes were measured.RESULTS: Present various injectable bone substitutes contained complex hydroxyapatite bone substitutes, complex calcium sulfate bone substitutes, and complex calcium phosphate bone substitutes. Addition of bone morphogenetic protein-2 etc. in injectable bone substitute could significantly elevate bone union speed, promote osteoblastic proliferation, and overcome disadvantage of physical bone substitute to some degrees. Addition of platelet-rich plasma could promote repair effect of injectable bone substitute on bone defects, and promote differentiation of bone marrow stromal stem cells and proliferation of osteoblasts. Addition of cells could make up the insufficiency of physical materials to great degrees.CONCLUSION: The compound injectable bone substitute has a bright perspective of clinical application. Injectable bone substitutes combined with cells (especially stem cells) will be a new direction for biomaterial development in the future.

Objective To observe the application effect of mental nursing on perioperative nursing of patients. Methods 66 patients with cutaneous carcinoma were randomly divided into the conventional nurs-ing group and the psychological intervention group. The conventional nursing group received perioperative mu-fine nursing,the psychological intervention group was given mental intervention before,during and after operation based on routine nursing. The anxiety value was measured before and 30 minutes after the operation, pain de-gree was assessed 30 minutes after the operation,the results underwent t test and X2 teat. Results Compared to the conventional nursing group, the anxiety value before the operation and 30 minutes pestoperation as well as pain degree 30 minutes pestoperation of the psychological intervention group were significantly decreased. Conclusions Mental nursing of patients with cutaneous carcinoma can efficiently eliminate or re-duco patients' psychologic obstacle and significantly reduce patients' painful feeling.

BACKGROUND:Although core decompression can contribute to the reconstruction of necrotic bone, its single use appears to have some deficiencies and cannot completely realize the reconstruction of the femoral head.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod in the repair of stage II femoral head necrosis
METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 79 cases of stage II femoral head necrosis admitted at the South Branch of Tongchuan People’s Hospital from February 2011 to February 2013. According to the therapeutic methods, these cases were divided into control group (40 cases) and observation group (39 cases), and were given conventional core decompression and arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod. Patients were fol owed up for 24 months, and the range of hip flexion and Harris scores on hip function and adverse events were observed and compared between two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al the 79 patients successful y completed the 24-month fol ow-up. By the last fol ow-up, the range of hip flexion and Harris score were significantly higher in the observation group than the control group (P<0.05). There was no failure case due to surgical material rejection. To sum up, arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod is safe and effective for repair of stage II femoral head necrosis.

[ABSTRACT]AIM:ToobservetheeffectofthesignalingpathwayofproteinkinaseC(PKC)-nuclearfactor-ery-throid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) on the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) induced by cigarette smoke extract (CSE) in the rat airway epithelial cells .METHODS:After exposed to CSE , the airway epithelial cells of male SD rats were di-vided into control group , CSE3 group, RO318220 group, Nrf2 siRNA group and RO318220+Nrf2 siRNA group.The pro-tein levels of HO-1, Nrf2 and PKC were semi-quantified by Western blotting .The protein expression of HO-1 was assessed by immunocytochemistry .The mRNA expression of HO-1 was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) .Nrf2 protein location was observed by immunofluorescence staining .HO-1 activity was also determined .RE-SULTS:After exposure to CSE for 3 h, the Nrf2 protein was mainly located in the nucleus , and the expression level of Nrf2 protein in the nucleus was stronger than that in the control cells .CSE also significantly enhanced the levels of p-PKC protein, and HO-1 mRNA, protein and activity .Pretreatment with RO318220 significantly decreased the levels of PKC pro-tein, Nrf2 protein, and HO-1 mRNA, protein and activity.Meanwhile, Nrf2 protein significantly decreased , and the activ-ity, mRNA and protein levels of HO-1 were also significantly attenuated by pretreatment with siRNA to knock down Nrf2. Pretreatment with RO318220 and Nrf2 siRNA significantly decreased the PKC protein , Nrf2 protein, and HO-1 mRNA, protein and activity .CONCLUSION:CSE up-regulates the HO-1 expression through PKC-induced nuclear translocation of Nrf2 in the rat airway epithelial cells .
