Journal of China Medical University 2009;(10):781-782,789
Objective To investigate the expression and localization of S100B protein in the placenta and umbilical cord tissue of the pregnant women at different gestational ages. Methods The placenta and umbilical cord tissues were obtained from 60 healthy pregnant women at different gestational ages:13~27 weeks (a = 20),28~36 weeks (n = 20),37~41 weeks (n = 20). The localization and expres-sion of S100B protein was detected by S-P immunochemical method and Western blotting. Results In the placenta,the S100B protein lo-cated in the trophoblast.myofibroblasts.macrophages and smooth muscle cells. The intensity of immunostaining and protein concentration in-creased with advancing gestation. In the umbilical cord,the S100B protein was found in the smooth muscle cells,myofibmblasts,amnion ep-ithelium, macrophages and monocytes. S100B piotein expression showed no significant difference in the different cells of the umbilical cord. Conclusion S100B protein expression in the placenta and umbilical cord tissues is throughout the gestation and increases with advancing gestation in the placenta.

Artery pulse theories are closely tied to body circulation theories.This design aims to build up a bridge between Chinese medicine and Western medicine through the method of engineering.It uses microscope to enlarge the simulated artery and get the blood pulse curve in an image processing way.In the same condition,there are quite close relations between blood pulse curve and artery pulse curve.It's easy to simulate the changes of the viscoelasticity through changing the artery materials,which can bring up a new artery pulse curve.The differences between the new artery pulse curve and the former one are comprehensively analyzed.This design explains the differences in Windkessel theory,and makes a conclusion.

BACKGROUND: The biliary stents commonly used in clinic are made of plastics and metal, both of which have some irresolvable defects. New type of material characterizing by great biocompatibility and degradation for the making of biliary stents needs to be found and studied.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the biodegradation law and the change in radical force of five different mole-ratios of biliary stents made of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) in human bile in vitro.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A Completely random design was performed at the Laboratory of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical College, Xi'an Jiaotong University between July and December 2006.MATERIALS: Five different mole-ratios of PLGA hiliary stents (90L/10G, 80L/20G, 70L/30G, 60L/40G, and 50L/50G) were provided by Dalgang Biological Science and Technology Co., Ltd., Jinan; Human fresh bile was obtained from the patients who underwent external drainage of bile in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical College, Xi'an Jiaotong University.METHODS: Thirty-two PLGA biliary stents of each proportion were respectively divided into eight groups, with four stents in each group. All of them were independently submerged into test tubes with 10 mL fresh human bile which were then placed in constant temperature oscillator. The temperature was set at 37 ℃. The bile was changed every day. After incubated for one week to eight weeks, the PLGA biliary stents were respectively taken out of test tubes from the first to the eighth group each week. They were washed with distilled water and dried in calorstat for 24 hours.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Gross morphology, color and integrality of PLGA stents; ② Scanning electron microscope; ③ the mass and the radical force of PLGA stents.RESULTS: ① Five different mole-ratios of PLGA stents followed a similar changing law as to gross morphology: stents remained intact → stents became soft → the surface ofstents became coarse and cracked → stents collapsed → stents were degraded into pieces → stents were completely degraded. ② Before degradation: limpid stereo reticular structure of PLGA; One week after degradation: PLGA was corroded and the reticular structure was decreased; Three weeks after degradation: airspace was gradually disappeared and the reticular structure was further decreased; Five weeks after degradation: airspace and the reticular structure were completely damaged, which was in an indefinite form. ③ The mass loss of each proportion of PLGA stents gradually speeded up along with the time extension. Furthermore, with the content of PGA increasing, the mass loss of the stents became faster. The initial radical force was different among five different mole-ratios of hiliary stents. With the content of PLA increasing, the radical force of the stents became stronger.CONCLUSION: The material of PLGA possesses adjustable biodegradation and good mechanical feature, so it is suitable for preparation of biliary stents.
