Objective To simulate the three-dimensional(3-D) growth pattern of stem cells in vivo by a 3-D culture system in vitro constructed by rat tail collagen scaffold.Methods Circular strands were prepared by mixing suspended murine embryonic stem cells(mESCs) with rat tail collagen.Growth profile of mESCs within the collagen strand was observed with phase contrast microscopy.Their metabolic activity was evaluated by glucose/lactic acid contents.To evaluate the effect of 3D culture system on ESCs differentiation,ES-derived cardiomyocytes were detected by immunohistochemistry,RT-PCR and transmission electron microscopy respectively.Results ESCs grew well in the 3-D culture system constructed by rat tail collagen.Cell connections can be found in those cell clusters formed within collagen stands,which indicated that tissue-like cultures should be produced during the process of 3-D culture in vitro.ESCs cultured by 3-D collagen strand differentiated into cardiomyocytes spontaneously.Conclusion Collagen provides an ideal growth matrix for ESCs proliferation in vitro and promotes ESCs differentiation towards tissue-like structures.Thus,the three dimensional culture system constructed by rat tail collagen can be applied to study ESCs differentiation in vivo.

Objective:To Construct 3-D standard external nasal morphological database for nasal prostheses.Methods:12 plaster models of 6 types of external nose were prepared and scanned by a lasser scanner.The data documents were primarily saved as .asc format. The digital noses were partitioned to six areas by the nasal anatomical features: Nasal bridge area,nasal tip and collumella area,left and right dorsal areas,left and right ala nostril areas, the surface model of each area was constructed and connected to a group. With adding the background color, the surface model of external nose was visualized from any observing angles; then the nasal length and width were measured and the original data were replaced by HAN standard data.12 digital nose models with the same size were obtained and the documents were saved by each type with both .asc format and .igs format.Results:Point-cloud data and surface model data of 6 types of standard external digital noses were obtained.Conclusion:The nasal morphological database may be used as the foundation for CAD/CAM technique preparation of nasal prostheses

Objective To explore the role of ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy in diagnosis and treatment of thyroid nodules.Methods 778 cases undergoing ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy in our department from Jan.2012 to Dec.2014 were retrospectively analyzed,and the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy were calculated.Results All the patients were operated successfully.Except for 21 nodules undiagnosed,16.4% (124/757) were histologically diagnosed as malignant and 83.6% (633/757) were benign.15 samples of the 124 malignant nodules were less than 10 millimeter in diameter.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy were 100%,94.8% and 95.6%,respectively.Of the ultrasound features,blood flow,boundary,internal situation and calcification were statistically significant between benign and malignant nodules,but not so between the groups of different greatest dimentions.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy is safe and effective for obtaining thyroid nodule tissue,and it is helpful for diagnosis of thyroid diseases.
4.Research progress on multimodality treatment for primary tracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma
Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2021;30(8):858-861
Primary tracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma (TACC) is exceedingly rare. Surgical resection is the main treatment for TACC. Whether the operation is radical or not is a key prognostic factor. Postoperative radiotherapy may be suitable to improve the local control rate and long-term survival for patients with positive surgical margin. For unresectable, recurrent and metastatic TACC patients, definitive radiotherapy, chemotherapy and molecular targeted therapies have yielded certain clinical efficacy. The aim of this review is to summarize the research progress on multimodality treatment for TACC.
