砄bjective: To establish an immortalized chondrocyte cell line derived from rabbit mandibular condyle without loss of chondrocyte phenotype. Methods: SV 40 large T antigen gene was conducted into primarily cultured mandibualr condylar chondrocytes (MCCs) of 1-2 week old New Zealand rabbits using an recombinant retroviral vector's transfecting method. After cultured in selective medium containing 400 ?g/ml G418 for 3 weeks, colonies were isolated and expanded for further study. Slot blot analysis was used to detect the transcript of type I and type II collagen of the transgenic cells. Results: One of the positive clones had been maintained for 100 passages for nearly one and half year, without any sign of senescence, and termed immortalized mandibular condylar chondrocyte (IMCC). Transcripts of pro ?1 ( I ) and ?1 ( II ) collagen was observed in IMCCs and MCCs by RNA blot. Conclusion: IMCC is an immortalized chondrocyte cell line derived from rabbit mandibular condyle and might be a good model for studying the biological character of MCC.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of the treatment of chronic symptomatic internal carotid artery long?segmental occlusion. Methods Fifty?one cases of chronic symptomatic internal carotid artery long?segmental occlusion (arterial occlusion more than 2 anatomical segments) who were treated with hybrid surgery (plaque located at the carotid sinus) or endovascular revascularization (plaque located at the distal end of the internal carotid artery occlusion) from May 2015 to May 2018 were reviewed. Recanalization, perioperative complications, stroke events, and reocclusion events during the follow?up period were recorded. Results The occlusion was recanalized successfully in 45 of 51 patients (88.2%, 45/51), 6 patients failed because the guidewire could not cross the distal arterial occlusion. And the technical success rate was 96.0% (24/25) in hybrid surgery and 80.8% (21/26) in endovascular revascularization. Perioperative complications occurred in 2 patients who underwent combined endovascular treatment. One patient had a small branch embolism due to intraoperative thrombus shift, and 1 patient had large area cerebral infarction. The complications occurred in 2 patients who underwent thybrid surgery, including 1 case of internal carotid cavernous fistula and 1 case of acute reocclusion of internal carotid artery. Forty?four patients with successful operation received clinical follow?up, with the median follow?up time of 24 months (7-43 months). No recurrent stroke and death occurred during the follow?up period. Clinical symptoms were improved in 34 cases. Totally 44 patients received imaging follow?up, and during the median imaging follow?up time of 8 month (4-28 months), 6 cases had reocclusion, and 2 cases had restenosis. Conclusion The treatment of chronic symptomatic internal carotid artery long?segmental occlusion is technically feasible and safety with good short?term efficacy. However, its exact efficacy remains to be confirmed by long?term follow?up studies with large samples.

Objective To explore the feasibility,safety and effect of endovascular revascularization for chronic long segment internal carotid artery occlusion. Methods The cases of chronic long segment internal carotid artery occlusion who were treated by endovascular revascularization in our center from May 2015 to April 2017 were reviewed. Eleven cases met the inclusion criteria:the duration of the occlusion was more than three weeks and the segment of the occlusion was beyond the petrosal segment of internal carotid arteries from the initial segment. All of the cases had the related symptoms and had declining cerebral perfusion. The analysis index included:baseline information,radiological information,perioperative results, clinical follow-up and imaging follow-up. The imaging follow-up index were the re-stenosis or re-occlusion of the revascularized artery. Results The occlusion was recanalized successfully in 9 of 11 patients,the two procedures were abandoned after repeated attempts and the guide wire could not reach the true lumen when navigating in the cavernous segment. Six cases of the nine successfully recanalized cases accepted perfusion-weighted imaging scan. Cerebral perfusion of all the cases were improved. Thrombus shifting was observed in one case and occluded a subbranch,mechanical thrombectomy was performed successfully,the case was recovered well without sequela. No symptomatic stroke or death was happened in the perioperative period. All of the nine cases who successfully recanalized acquired clinical follow-up,median follow-up time was ten months(4—28 months). No ischemic stroke and death happened after the procedures. Seven of nine cases improved in the clinical symptoms. Five cases accepted the imaging follow-up. The meantime was six months. No re-occlusion was happened. Conclusions Endovascular revascularization for chronic long segment internal carotid artery occlusion is feasible,safe,and short-term effective. More clinical research is needed to verify the long-term effect.
