Objective To manufacture adriamycin-porous tricalcium phosphate (A-PTCP) ceramic drug delivery system (DDS)as a possible method for bone defect treatment after bone tumor operation. Methods A-PTCP DDS was made from putting adriamycin into PTCP. Thirty rabbits were divided randomly into group A(24 rabbits) and group B(6 rabbits). A-PTCP was implanted in the greater trochanter of the right femur in group A. Adriamycin were injected into veins in group B. Muscle around A-PTCP and plasma were taken out at different period. Adriamycin concentrations in muscle and plasma were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Results A-PTCP could gradually release adriamycin over 10 weeks. Adriamycin concentrations in the muscle were higher than that in plasma. Conclusion A-PTCP may be a new method for repairing bone defects after bone tumor operation.

BACKGROUND:Machinable bioglass-ceramics became a new inorganic biomaterial; moreover, strength, toughness and machinability are significantly studied.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives on the microstructure and properties of machinable bioglass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system.DESIGN: Observational contrast study.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Laboratory of Materials, Wuhan University of Technology from October 2003 to April 2004. K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2Os-F system, ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives, D/Max-ⅢA X-ray diffractometer (Japan), JSM-5610LV scanning electron microscope (SEM), HVS-1000 microhardnessmeter and 3257-35 magnetic testing device (Japan) were used in this study.METHODS: In the glass-ceramic of K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system, three kinds of additives ZnO, ZnO-Fe2O3 and ZnO-Fe2O3-ZrO2 were added respectively. These three kinds of ceramics were prepared by being melted at 1 400 ℃ for 1 hour. After fire, crystal temperature was set based on differential thermal analysis curve. ① Physical properties: Microhardness was determined with microhardnessmeter (HVS-1000). The flexural strength and fracture toughness were established measured with ceramic mechanical test system (MTS) method and single edge notched beam (SENB) method, respectively. Saturation magnetic moment and Curie temperature were determined with 3257-35 magnetism test machine made in Japan. Holing method was used to measure machinability. ② Test of crystalline phase and microstructure: Crystalline phase analysis was carried out with X-ray diffraction (XRD: D/Max-ⅢA) and microstructure analysis were conducted on an etched fracture surface using SEM (JSM-5610LV,Japan). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Effects of ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives on physical properties, mineral composition and crystalline phase.RESULTS: ① The addition of ZnO to the glass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system was beneficial to crystal growth, increasing aspect ratio of crystal, decreasing microhardness and improving toughness and machinability. ② The addition of ZnO-Fe2O3 to the glass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system can form minority Mg-Zn ferrite with magnetism. The main crystalline phase present in the glass- ceramic was diopside with small size and hardness was improved, which led to worse machinability. ③ Because of the addition of ZnO-Fe2O3-ZrO2, magnesia fluormica and fluorapatite became the main crystalline phases, and the minor phases including Mg-Zn ferrite, t-ZrO2 and m-ZrO2, etc.also presented in the glass-ceramic. This material possessed high strength and toughness, good machinability and magnetism, which could stimulate formation of new bone, and was good substitute of bone restorations. Bioassay and in vitro test indicated that the glass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system was bioactive and biocompatible. CONCLUSION: ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives play a significant role in changing crystalline structure, enhancing strength,toughness and machinability of machinable bioglass-ceramic and generating magnetism.

Objective To study the causes and theoretical basis for good bone healing ability of magnetic Porous Ca3 (PO4) 2 ( MPTCP). Methods Seven MPTCP specimens with size of 2 cm × 1 cm × 0.5 cm were placed in the material physical system for detecting 42 times and the mean detection value was used to measure the MPTCP curve. The attachment 16451B of impedance spectrometer HP RLC was employed to measure dielectric spectroscopy and dielectric spectroscopy of MPTCP. Four-wire method was used to measure the impedance of MPTCP. Results The magnetic intensity changed rapidly when magnetic field was in a range of-10,000-10,000 Oe. The peak of dielectric spectroscopy and impedance of magnetic bioceramics was in the range of 103-104 Hz. When the external electromagnetic wave of frequency was ≤ 1 000 Hz, electrical impedance of MPTCP was large;while when the electromagnetic wave frequency was≥1 000 Hz, the impedance was relatively small and stable. Conclusion The environmental magnetic fields may change the magnetic and electric behavior of MPTCP and promote the biological healing, which may be the cause for the good bone healing ability of MPTCP.

Objective To investigate the possibility of transforming growth factor β (TGF-p) inducing chondrogenesis of precartilaginous stem cells (PSCs) and discuss expression mechanism of extracel-luar matrix. Methods PSCs were induced into a chondrogenic pathway in alginate bead culture in the absence of serum and in the presence of TGF-β1, β2, or-β3. The temporal pattern of expression of cartilage-specific extracellular matrix during chondrogenesis were analyzed by immunocytochemistry, immunoflu-orescence, RT-PCR, immunoprecipitation, Western blot and spectrophotometer. Results Type Ⅱ collagen staining was positive at days 7, 14 and 21 in alginate bead culture, showing most intense staining in the TGF-p3-treated culture. Expression of type Ⅱ collagen was increased in TGF-β3 group. Immunocytochemi-cal analysis of a number of other extracellular matrix components showed widespread expressions of aggre-can, fibromodulin and COMP in alginate bead culture that presented TGF-p3 for 21 days. The expressions of Aggrcan, fibromodulin, type Ⅰ and ⅹ collagen, and COMP were detected by RT-PCR in TGF-β3 group within 8 days, while type Ⅱ collagen began expression at days 8-21. COMP or type X collagen was present in TGF-β3 group at days 7, 14 and 21 by immunoprecipitation or Western blot analysis respectively. The extracted glycosaminoglycan content or the glycosaminoglycan/DNA rate in TGF-βl group was significantly lower than those in TGF-β2 group or TGF-β3 group at days 14 and 21 (P <0.01). Conclusions TGF-β can evocate chondrogenesis of PSCs, when rapid deposition of cartilage-specific extracellular matrix is involved. The sequential events in this pathway leading from the undifferentiated stem cells to mature chon-drocytes can be investigated by analysis of key matrix elements.

OBJECTIVETo study the protective effect of panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) against apoptosis of the superficial cells of rat renal cortex following femoral fracture in rats.
METHODSNinety Wistar rats were randomized into 3 groups, namely the fracture group (n=36), fracture with PNS treatment group (n=36), and normal control group (n=18). At 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 h after femoral fracture, 6 rats from first two groups and 3 from the control group were sacrificed to observe renal pathologies with HE-staining. Immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization were used to detect Bcl-2 and Bax expression, and TUNEL staining was employed to detect the distribution of apoptotic cells.
RESULTSIn the fracture group, the renal cortex showed telangiectasia and granular degeneration of proximal tubule, which were lessened in the PNS treatment group. Compared with the control group, the fracture group showed significantly increased Bcl-2 and Bcl-2 mRNA expressions in the renal cortex at 1-12 h (P<0.01) and increased Bax protein expression at 12-36 h (P<0.01) with increased Bax mRNA expression at 24-48 h (P<0.01). In PNS treatment group, Bcl-2 protein expression at 1 h and Bcl-2 mRNA expression at 12-48 h were significantly higher (P<0.01), but Bax protein and mRNA expressions at 24-48 h were significantly lower (P<0.01) than those in the fracture group.
CONCLUSIONFemoral fracture obviously affects Bcl-2 and Bax protein and mRNA expressions in the superficial cells of the renal cortex, PNS can suppress the cell apoptosis by down-regulating Bax expression and up-regulating Bcl-2 expression.
