Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;11(48):9817-9820
BACKGROUND : Chitosan, derived from chitin, has a poor solubility which limits its application greatly. For improving its dissolubility, according to the feature that intramolecular hydroxy and amino group in chitosan are easy to be chemically modified, and functional groups are introduced to improve its solubility and functionality to widen the range of its application, which has become one of the new trend of development for investigating the application of chitosan. OBJECTIVE: To sum up the research advancements in the application and modification of chitosan in carboxylation,acylation, alkylation, etherification, etc.RETRTEVE STRATEGY: The relevant articles published in English between 1998 and 2007 were searched for in Pubmed database with the key words of "chitosan, modification", and the relevant articles published between 1998 and 2007 were searched for in Elsevier Science database with the key words "chitosan, modification" and search "derivate" within search results in English. Articles closely related to the structural modification and application of chitosan were involved, and repetitive and old studies were excluded.LTTERATURE EVALUATION: Totally 154 articles were selected, and 30 of them are accorded with the inclusive criteria,including 5 are reviews, and the others are clinical or experimental studies.DATA SYNTHESTS: The intramolecular hydroxy and amino groups in chitosan are mostly modified because they are easy to be chemically modified. Recently, reports lay particular emphasis on the modification in carboxylation, acylation,alkylation, etherification, etc. Functional groups are introduced to improve its solubility and functionality to widen the range of its application.CONCLUSTON: The water-solubility of chitosan can be improved through structural modification and introducing multifunctional group, which can also bring about much more special efficacies.
4.Intrauterine management of fetal arrhythmia
Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2021;24(4):241-244
Fetal arrythmia is a common cardiac abnormality, which can be categorized into three major types: extrasystoles, tachycardia and bradycardia. Most fetal arrythmias do no harm to the fetus, but few severe fetal arrythmia, including supraventricular tachycardia, atrial flutter and conduction block do, resulting in congestive heart dysfunction, hydrops fetalis and even intrauterine death. Therefore, timely intrauterine management may help to improve the fetal outcomes. This article reviews intrauterine treatment strategies for different types of fetal arrythmia.

Objective To study the relationship of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM) and ~family history of diabetes (FHD), clinical characteristics and maternal and infant outcomes of GDM and gestational impaired glucose tolerance (GIGT). Methods A prospective case-control study was performed in 244 women with GDM/ GIGT, including 93 patients with family history of diabetes and 151 without FHD, and 244 normal OGTT cases as control from Feb. 2004 to Aug. 2004 in Dept of OB &GYN of Peking University First Hospital. Univariate analysis was used to estimate the odds ~ratios with 95% CI. Results (1)FHD was a risk factor of GDM/GIGT, OR=2.9.The co-effect of parents DM on transmission was excessive. (2)Maternal≥30 years old with FHD were greater than those without FHD (75.3% vs 62.9%). More intakes of fruits and carbohydrate per day and more weight gain during pregnancy in pregnant women with FHD were lower than those in patients without FHD. (3) The prevalence of GDM was indifferent ~between patients with and without FHD. 50 g OGCT plasma glucose (PG), fasting PG and 3 h PG in 75 g OGTT of patients with FHD were higher than those of patients without FHD. The number of pregnant women treated by insulin was significantly different between patients with and without FHD. (4) No difference was found between family and non-family history of diabetes in the prevalences of pre-eclampsia, FGR, polyhydramnios, preterm labor, LGA and SGA. Conclusions (1) FHD is a risk of GDM/GIGT, and exposure to a diabetic intrauterine environment is a mechanism responsible for this excessive maternal inheritance. (2)~Besides family history of diabetes, more intake of fruits or carbohydrate and larger gain of body weigh during pregnancy may result in GDM/GIGT.

Objective Study the effects of early overfeeding in the adult offspring of mother with severely hyperglycaemia in pregnancy to islet development and insulin resistance. Methods Thirty healthy female Wistar rats were mated with 10 male Wistar rats and the morning on which sperm were found in three different visual fields of the vaginal smear was designated pregnancy day 1. The pregnant rats were intraperitoneally administered with Streptozotocin (STZ, 50 mg/L) on 5th day of pregnancy, and blood glucose exceeded 20 mmol/L to induce severely gestational diabetes mellitus (SDM) model. The pregnant Wistar rats were assigned to two experimental groups: SDM (n = 16) and control (n = 8). Litter size reduction in the lactation period induced early postnatal overfeeding model. Offspring were divided into three groups according to the level of blood glucose in pregnancy and feeding patterns in lactation: ( 1 ) control group (CG):euglycemia in pregnancy, eight pups in lactation;(2) severely gestational diabetes mellitusnormal feeding (SDM-N):severely gestational diabetes mellitus, eight pups in lactation; (3) severely gestational diabetes mellitus-overfeeding (SDM-O): severely gestational diabetes mellitus, four pups lactation. At the end of the lactation period, all pups were fed standard laboratory chow adlibitum until the date of the experiments. Offspring body weight was measured weekly after ablactation. Serum insulin was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and pancreatic islet morphology was analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in all three groups at 26 weeks of age. Results (1) Blood glucose of pregnant Wistar rats: SDM (28.3 ±5.1 ) mmol/L was statistically higher than control (6.3 ± 1.4) mmol/L ( P < 0.05 ). (2) Growth rates of body weight in 3 - 7 weeks and 3 - 9 weeks: SDM-N: (4. 6 ± 1.3) % and (6.8±2.5)%, SDM-O:(3.2±0.7)% and(4.6±1.2)%,CG:(2.9 ±0.6)% and(4.1 ±0.8)%.The growth rates of body weight in SDM-N and SDM-O were both significantly higher than those in CG ( P <0.05 ). (3) Body weight at 26 weeks: CG: (486 ± 132) g, SDM-N: ( 387 ± 115 ) g, SDM-O: ( 382 ± 122) g.There was no statistical difference among the three groups (P >0.05). (4) Fasting plasma glucose ( FPG),fasting insulin (FINS), homeostasis model of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and insulin sensitivity index (ISI): at 26 weeks, the SDM-offspring has nomal FPG, but more insulin was needed to keep it normal. The insulin level of SDM-O[ ( 12.6 ± 3.3) mU/L ] was statistically higher than those of SDM-N [ ( 10.9 ± 3.3 )mU/L] and CG [ ( 8.6 ± 0.8 ) mU/L ] ( P < 0.05 ). The ISI of SDM-O ( 0.020 ± 0.006 ) was significantly smaller than its HOMA-IR(2.40 ±0.62,P <0.05). (5)The morphological change of pancreatic islet: The islets of CG and SDM-N were round or ellipse and have clear boundary between endocrine and exocrine parts and the β cells distributed equally. However, SDM-O islets were not of uniform size and most of islets were hyperplasia and hypertrophy. (6) Relative β cell area of pancreas, β-cell area and islet size: SDM-O:(1.81 ±0.31)%, (57.1 ±3.2)% and(39 067 ±3308)μm2; SDM-N:(1.34 ±0.43)%,(60.9 ±0.6)% and ( 30 570 ± 4824 ) μm2; CG: ( 1.11 ± 0.26 )%, ( 63.7 ± 2.7 )% and ( 26 443 ± 4431 ) μm2.SDM-O has significantly increasing β-cell mass, hypertrophic islet size and slightly decreasing β-cell percentage compared with other two groups (P < 0.05 ). Conclusions The exposure of severely hyperglycemia in pregnancy induces low weight infant and postnatal catch-up growth leading to the possibility of insulin resislance (IR) in adult and early postnatal overfeeding will accelerate such course. Islet morphology of SDM-N has no significant change, indicating that maternal diabetes mainly affected β-cell function but not islet morphological features. SDM overfeeding results in early impairment of islet morphology and function, indicating that the compensation ability of islets has already been impaired and the risk of further development of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and diabetes. In conclusion, the nutritonal environment in early life ( duration of pregnancy and lactation) participate in the metabolic programming in adulthood.

Objective To establish the animal model of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM to observe the long-term effect of maternal hyperglycemia and postnatal overfeeding on the metabolism of offsprings. Methods Streptozotocin (STZ, 50 mg/kg) was administered to Wistar rats intraperitoneally on the 5th day of gestation to induce animal GDM model. Offsprings were allocated into 3 groups: Group CP (n=8) were exposed to normal maternal hyperglycemic environment, group DP-1 (n=8) exposed to intrauterine hyperglycemia and every 8 pups breast-fed by one GMD mother and group DP-2 exposed to intrauterine hyperglycemia and every 4 pups breast-fed by one GDM mother (n=8). Weight gain between 3-10 weeks were recorded, OGTT at 10 weeks and hyperinsulinemia-euglycemia clamp technique was performed, and plasma insulin level was measured by ELISA at 11 weeks. Results Offsprings in DP-1 and DP-2 group had greater weight gain than group CP at 3-10 weeks after birth [(6.68±1.70)% and (6.03±1.85)% vs (4. 74±0.93)%, P< 0. 05], but no difference was found among the three groups in OGTT results (P> 0. 05). The baseline plasma insulin level was lower in the DP-1 group than in the DP-2 and CP group [(0. 76± 0. 37)μg/L vs (1.13±0. 25)μg/L and (1.06±0. 14)μg/L](P<0. 05). GIR60-120 was higher in DP-1 Offsprings of Wistar rats, exposed to intrauterine hyperglycemia, experience excessive weight gain at 3-10 weeks after birth. Overfeeding in early life expedites the decrease of insulin sensitivity in these offspings.
