Objective To construct tissue engineered cartilage with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and allogeneic bone matrix gelatin (BMG). Methods Bone marrow was aspirated and MSCs were separated by consecutive 0.70(70%)(V/V) Percoll gradient centrifugation and fibronectin adhesion. In experimental group, rhTGF-?1 and rhIGF-Ⅰ were applied into DMEM to induce proliferation and chondrogenic transformation, while in control group only DMEM was used. Colony forming efficiency (CFE) of MSCs was calculated, procollagen ?1(Ⅱ)mRNA expression in cells was detected by RT-PCR, hexuronic acid in culture medium was measured by carbazole-sulfuric acid method. Allogeneic bone matrix gelatin (BMG) was prepared by successive defatting and decalcification, observed by scanning electronic microscope. Chondrocyte progenitor cells induced from MSCs were seeded into BMG to construct tissue engineered cartilage. Culture masses were sectioned and stained by Masson's trichrome. Results CFE was 21/106 in experimental group, significantly higher than that of control group, which was 3/106 (u=3.878, P

Objective To evaluate the root canal deviations in vitro teeth curved root with TF and Protaper instru-ments by cone beam computer tomography( CBCT) . Methods 40 teeth in vitro in the standard collection were ran-domly assigned to two groups, prepared with the crown-down method, the TF group ready to 0. 06/#25; the Pro-taper group ready to F2 . CBCT scans were taken to measure the mesial and distal thicknesses of the tube wall in vitro teeth before and after preparation. The root canal deviation and the rate of shaft center were measured with ref-erence to the formula proposed by Gambill. Results The TF group need less time in preparation and has more effi-ciency(P<0. 05) than the Protaper group; both TF and Protaper devices appeared deformation after 5 root canal preparations in average, no instruments broken. Comparing the offset of the internal and external wall of root canal in 3, 5, 7 mm from the apex, the root canal deviation prepared by the TF group was less than the Protaper group, and its rate of axis center was greater than the Protaper group, closer to 1. Conclusion TF can maintain original root canal morphology in preparing curved root canal, also has higher efficiency;under the noninvasive condition, the root canal forming ability of preparation instruments can be evaluated by CBCT.

Background Deficiency of neurotrophic factor is associated with the damage of optic nerve in glaucoma.Reaserches showed that ectopically applied neurotrophic factor has a transient neuroprotective effect in glaucoma model,and the viral expression of adeno-associated neurotrophie factor may provide long-term supplementation of neurotrophic factor and neuroprotection in tissues.Objective The present study Was to investigate the neuroproteetive effect of adeno-associated viral(AAV)-mediated brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)on retinal ganglion cells(RGCs)in DBA/2J mice with experimental glaucoma. Methods 10 clean DBA/2J mice were administered intravitreal injection with 1 microliter of AAV-BDNF-GFP in the left eyes at the age of 6 months,and the right eyes were injected with the same volume of saline solution as control.Intraocular pressure (IOP)was measured with Tonolab in the mice every month.Retinas were obtained after 3 months for the investigation of GFP expression in RGCs using fluorescence microscopy.Immunohistochemistry Was performed by applying TUJ1 and Cy3 antibodies to identify surviving RGCs. Results The IOP of DBA/2J mice were 11.90 mmHg and 11.40 mmHg in the right eyes and left eyes,respectively,at 4 months.The IOP of DBA/2J mice began to rise at 5 months and reached its peak in 8 month-old mice.There was no statistically significant difference in IOPs between the right eyes and the left eyes from 4 month-through 9 month-old mice(t=-1.78-0.61,P=0.11-0.90).Three months after intrlavitreal injection of AAV-BDNF-GFP,GFP was positively expressed in RGCs of retinas with the expression rate of 46.33%±8.08%.The over-expression of BDNF led to more RGCs survival than the control eyes (3168.13±1319.33/mm2 vs 2024.81±796.38/mm2,t=2.75,P=0.02). Conclusion These data suggest that BDNF can exert a protective effect in DBA/2J glaucoma mice.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture treatment for migraine. Methods: Forty cases were randomly allocated to a treatment group and a control group, 20 cases in each group. Cases in the treatment group were treated with acupuncture, while cases in the control group were treated with oral Sibelium. After that, the changes of cerebral blood flow were observed before and after treatment. Results: There was significant difference in clinical efficacies between two groups (P<0.05). There were also significant differences in arterial blood flow velocities of before and after treatment. Acupuncture can produce substantial differences (P<0.05) in blood flow velocities of vertebral artery (VA), middle cerebral artery (MCA) and anterior cerebral artery (ACA) during an increased flow rate. It can also produce statistical differences in blood flow velocities of VA during a decreased flow rate (P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture can effectively alleviate the pain of migraine sufferers and exert a two-way regulation on the cerebral blood flow.

Objective To discuss the efficacy and safety of triamcinolone acetonide (TA)retrobulbar injection combined with panretinal photocoagulation (PRP)in the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME), and to explain the advantages of this combination treatment method in treating DME.Methods Sixty-four cases (64 eyes) with macular edema due to diabetic retinopathy(DR)were randomly divided into combination treatment group(n=34,treated with TA retrobulbar injection combined with PRP)and PRP group(n=30,received PRP treatment only).The changes in the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), the fovea centralis thickness (CMT), and the intraocular pressure(IOP)before treatment and in 1 month, 3 months, 6 months after treatment were compared. Results The BCVA was improved in both groups after treatment. However, the BCVA improvement in combination treatment group was statistically more significant (P<0.05)compared with PRP group in 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after treatment. The resolution of DME after treatment as compared with that before treatment,the CMT reduced in two groups in 1 month,3 months,6 months after treatment.At each stage,the CMT in combination treatment group was lower than PRP group (P<0.05 ). No complications of glaucoma, cataract,vitreous hemorrhage,retinal detachment,choroidal detachment,and endophthalmitis were found in all patients.Conclusion For the patients with DME,the combination treatment with TA retrobulbar injection and PRP has a better therapeutic effect than the sole PRP treatment in reducing the macular edema and improving the BCVA.The operation is simple and has less complication.
