0.05), whereas the value of new bone grafted with pDBM was significantly lower than that of the normal group (P0.05); but the CUS of the pDBM grafted group was significantly lower than that of normal radius (P0.05). Histological analysis exhibited that most of the DBM was absorbed and substituted by matured new cortical bone in the treated defects of both groups 6 weeks postoperatively, whereas in the untreated group, the defects were only filled with fibrous connective tissue in their mid-portion. Conclusion The sDBM and pDBM are both effective in repairing segmental bone defects. The properties of new bone induced by grafts with sDBM are superior to that of pDBM in biomechanics. These materials can be used in clinical practice as bone graft extenders or enhancers.

Background and purpose: Locoregional infusion chemotherapy such as hepatic artery, or hepaticportal vein infusion is one of the most important treatments for hepatocelluar carcinoma. This study was aimed to investigate the distribution of fluorouracil(5-FU) in rat hepatoma, liver tissue and plasma after administrated by caudal vein or locoregional routes of hepatic artery, hepaticportal vein, and hepaticportal vein with ligated hepatic artery. Methods:Twenty-four tumor-bearing rats were divided into 4 groups randomly, and they were infused with 5-FU through peripheral vein(caudal vein), hepatic artery, hepaticportal vein or hepaticportal vein with ligated hepatic artery, which dose was 20 mg/kg. High performance liquid chromatography was adopted to measure the content of 5-FU in hepatoma, liver tissue and plasma, and the drug penetration rate among them were calculated. Results:The group of hepaticportal vein with ligated hepatic artery reached the highest concentrations of 5-FU in live tissue and hepatoma, which concentrations were (22.1±9.5)μg/g and (16.4±7.2)μg/g. Then was the hepatic artery group, and the concentration of the hepaticportal vein group in the hepatoma focus was much smaller than the former 2 groups, which was (8.9±3.7)μg/g. The peripheral vein group got the lowest concentrations both in the liver tissue and hepatoma, which were (9.4±3.7) and (4.3±2.2)μg/g. The concentrations of 5-FU in the plasma in the peripheral vein group, the hepatic artery group, the group of hepaticportal vein with ligated hepatic artery and the hepaticportal vein group were (26.8±12.5), (16.4±9.7), (15.9±10.1) and (14.9±8.5)μg/mL, which indicated that the drug concentrations of the latter 3 groups were much lower than the former group. The hepatoma/plasma penetration rate of 5-FU in the group of hepaticportal vein with ligated hepatic artery, the hepatic artery group, the hepaticportal vein group and the peripheral vein group were 103.47%, 92.94%, 59.58% and 16.08%. Conclusion: Compared to the peripheral venous bolus injection, locoregional infusion could significantly increase the concentrations of chemotherapy agent in hepatoma focus and liver tissue, and decrease the drug distributions in peripheral blood. And the infusion through hepaticportal vein with ligated hepatic artery and through hepatic artery reaches higher concentrations in the hepatoma focuses, which indicate that they are 2 practical and promising routes for the locoregional chemotherapy of hepatoma.

BACKGROUND:The growth of mesenchymal stem cells in vitro in different conditioned media is different evidently. So it is necessary to choose a more suitable medium. OBJECTIVE:To contrast and observe the proliferation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in three kinds of media and to check the immunophenotype and differentiation ability of mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS:Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were col ected by explant method in sterile conditions. After subculturing by T75 incubation bottles, the third generation of mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/Ham’s nutrient mixture F-12 medium containing 5%fetal bovine serum, Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/Ham’s nutrient mixture F-12 containing 10%fetal bovine serum and Mesen PRO RSTM medium. After 1, 3, 5, 7 days of culture, the cells were counted to draw a growth curve. Immunophenotype of the third generation of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were determined by flow cytometry and the ability of osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation was also detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The third generation of cells cultured highly expressed CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105, but did not express CD29, CD31, CD34, HLA-DR. The oil red O staining showed a lot of little red lipid drops after adipogenic induction;alizarin red staining showed osteoblast-like cells after osteogenic induction, indicating umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in vitro have the potential of multi-directional differentiation. After observation and counting, the colony and shape of cells cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/Ham’s nutrient mixture F-12 containing 10%fetal bovine serum were superior to those cultured in the other two media. Therefore, it is concluded that Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/Ham’s nutrient mixture F-12 containing 10%fetal bovine serum is preferred for cellsubculture.

Objective To evaluate the value of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)in the diagnosis and classification of plas-ma-cell mastitis (PCM).Methods The breast MRIs of eighteen pathologically confirmed PCM patients were retrospectively ob-served and analyzed.The manifestations of lesions,including shape,size,margin,and characteristic enhancement on T1 WI,T2 WI with fat suppression and contrast enhanced T1 WI were observed and documented respectively.Results PCM were divided into three types according to MRIs:the inflammation type 4 cases,the abscess type 9 cases,and the mixed type 5 cases.In the inflammation type,3 cases of lesions were wide extending while the other 1 limited in nipple and areola.All 4 cases of lesions were hypointensity on T1 WI and hyperintensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.And in the contrast enhanced scanning,2 cases showed patchy hyperin-tensity and 2 cases showed branch-like enhancement.In abscess type,6 cases of lesions were wide and 3 cases limited in one quad-rant.Of all 9 cases,there were 3 cases with single abscess and 6 with multiple abscess;and all cases showed hypointensity on T1 WI and hyperintensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.In the enhanced scanning,there were 4 cases with honeycomb-like hyperintensity and 5 cases with annular and patchy enhancement.In mixed type,inflammation was accompanied with abscess and fistula.All cases were hypointensity on T1 WI and hyperintensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.In the enhanced scanning,3 cases showed honeycomb-like enhancement,1 case showed multiple annular enhancement and 1 case showed annular and patchy enhancement.Regions of in-terest were selected and time-signal intensity curves were obtianed in every enhancement cases,all of which were influent.Of all ca-ses,5 showed high-protein deposition in the expansion ducts,exhibiting hyperintensity on T1 WI and hypointensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.Conclusion The abscess type is the most common in PCM and the second is the mixed type.Annular and honeycomb-like enhancement are characteristic appearance of these two types,which are helpful in the diagnosis and classification of PCM.

BACKGROUND:Due to the difficulty in the control of delivery and col ection process, antibiotics are often added into the preservation fluid in order to avoid bacterial contamination but not affect cellgrowth and proliferation. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of meropenem on the proliferation and differentiation potential of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS:There were two groups in this experiment:control group, preservation fluid with penicil in-streptomycin (final concentration of 100 U/mL);experimental group, preservation fluid with meropenem (final mass concentration of 1.0 mg/L). 100 umbilical cord samples were col ected in each group, and the positive rate was calculated. After isolation and culture, the passage 3 cells were used to draw a growth curve, flow cytometry analysis was used for phenotype determination, and osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of cells were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The contamination rates were 3%(3/100) in the experimental group and 20%(20/100) in the control group, indicating that meropenem can obviously reduce the contamination rate. In the experimental group, the morphology, differentiation potential and cellphenotype of the passage 3 cells were al normal. The proliferation ability of cells showed no difference between the two groups. Therefore, meropenem can be added to the preservation fluid.

BACKGROUND: In the research of biomaterial, especially bio-coatings field, how to find a good biological and mechanical properties basal body, and to prepare coatings with uniform and compact surface and strong bonding force, is the key factor in clinical Application of artificial prosthesis. OBJECTIVE: To review the progress of bio-coatings.METHODS: Databases of CNKI, VIP, and Science Direct were retrieved with key words of "Biocoatings, HAp, Titanium, Carbon/carbon composites" to search papers published from January 1998 to October 2009. PApers underlying bio-coatings were selected. Totally 216 literatures were initial searched, according to inclusive criteria, 31 literature were summarized. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: By contrasting the basal bodies made of titanium or carbon/carbon and different coating preparation, we found that the basal body composed of carbon/carbon composites exhibited good biocompatibility, which had similar strength to natural bone. Using hydrothermal method, the composites coating prepared by taking carbon/carbon as basal body and hydroxyApatite, chitosan, or polymethyl methacrylate as coatings provided a new idea for increasing the combing strength between coatings and basal body.
