Platelet-rich plasma is a volume of autogenous plasma with a high platelet concentration. Platelet-rich gel which is polymerized from platelet-rich plasma becomes a hot topic in the repairing of jaw bones in oral and dentofacial surgery. Presently, the mechanism of platelet-rich gel in enhancement of bone defect repair has not been clarified. Generally, we believed that the unifiation of blood platelet degranulation released many high-concentration growth factor during polymerization stimulated bone formation and accelerated bone repair. In addition, the application of platelet-rich gel has some problems. Thus, wide application of platelet-rich gel in tissue engineering deserves further studies. With the development, platelet-rich gel should be widely used in bone tissue engineering.

BACKGROUND: Consummate innervation plays an important role in bone formation. Nerve injury can impact normal bone metabolism, whereas bone regeneration depends on nerve regeneration in the innervation site to some degrees. Modified implant surface structure or usage of growth factors in local region can promote osseointegretion.OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyze effects of nervous system dominance bone metabolism and denervation on bone remodeling, innervated establishment and osseoperception during osseointegration following implantation.METHODS: The first author retrieved Pubmed database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed) and Wanfang database (http://www.wanfangdata.com.cn) (1990/2008) for publications of effects of nervous system dominance bone metabolism and denervation on bone remodeling, innervated establishment and osseoperception during osseointegration following implantation,with the key words of "bone metabolism, innervation, osseointegrationosseoperception" . Articles of repetitive contents were excluded. A total of 54 literatures were primarily obtained. According to inclusion criteria, 28 literatures were selected for summary.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Signals derived from the nervous system exert potent effects on osteoclast and osteoblast function. A ubiquitous innervation of all periosteal surfaces exists and its disruption affects bone remodeling. Several neuropeptides, neurohormones, nerotransmitters and their receptors are detectable in bone, and make it clear that nervous system is involved in bone metabolism and regeneration. Establishment of innervation of soft and hard tissue around implants may play an important role in osseointegration and osseoperception. Further studies will be required to explore the basic of anatomy,neurophysiology and neuropathology, which forms osseoperception.

Objective To study the setting up a model of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) in pigs. Methods In pigs, OLT were performed based on the porcine anatomical and physiological features, and the extracorporeal veno venous bypass was established during the anhepatice stage. Results Fourteen pigs(87.5%) of 16 OLT survived after the operation, and the haemodynamics?serum biochemical parameters and core temperature were maintained in the normal value during OLT. Conclusions Extracorporeal venovenous bypass and perfect surgical techniques based on the anatomical and physiological features are the key to successful OLT in pigs.
