Collagen fibrils and hydroxyapatite might recognize each other at the mesoscale by multiple cooperative interactions due to their intrinsically repetitive structured surfaces, and thus effectively directing the biomineralization, a biological process involving regulating the growth of bones, teeth and other organs. In this work, we developed a simple technique to prepare nanowire arrays of biological macromolecules by reversely using the biomineralization mechanism, with results similar to the hot wall epitaxy, a molecular beam deposition technique under vacuum. With this technique, we successfully cultured 5-10 μg/mL rat tail type I collagen monomer solutions into collagen nanowire arrays on the mica (001) lattice plane along one unique direction across the whole cleavage surface. The atomic force microscope experiments indicated that the nanowires in the arrays became more crowded with higher monomer concentration, but their width and height remained unchanged, about 60.0 nm and 1.5 nm, respectively. The collagen nanowire coating enhanced the hydrophilicity of the mica surface, reducing the contact angle from 25.8° to 9.5°. Based on the characterization results of electron back scattering diffraction and transmission electron microscope, the collagen nanowires were most likely to be oriented along the mica [110] direction, which validated the quasiepitaxial growth mechanism in more details.

Objective To investigate the demands and problems of the sharing and construc-tion of teaching resources in medical universities. Method A self-designed questionnaire named The questionnaire of the present situation and demand of teaching resources sharing platforms in medical universities in China was used to conducted in all the attainders during a national teaching resources meeting, and SPSS 17.0 was used to analyze the data. Results Among 125 valid questionnaires, 117 people (93.6%) think it's necessary to establish the resources sharing platform, what's more 108 people (86.4%) believe that education resources sharing platform is very helpful for teaching, and multimedia materials, online courses, course wares, teaching cases, website of subject resources and other educa-tion resources should be widely shared. Our investigation has involved 48 medical universities from all over the country, in which 33 medical universities have teaching resources sharing platform. However, 20 (60.6%) of the universities have still not updated the content on time. There are 10 main factors which influence the using of the education resource sharing platform, in which 105 (84%) of them have con-sidered the factor as backward concepts, 91 (72.8%) think that there exist problems in resource con-struction mechanism, 76 (60.8%) think to be the standardized and universal problems. Conclusion It is necessary to build the education resource sharing platform. In all, we should change the traditional education concept and consciousness, strengthen mechanism of management, and exploit high quality education resource to improve the sharing level of education resource in medical universities.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of pancreatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Methods We reported a case and reviewed the medical literature on pancreatic malignant GIST. We searched the Pubmed and main domestic database. The clinical data of the reported cases were studied, and their predictive factors for postoperative recurrence and metastasis were analyzed. Results Between January 1980 and July 2010, 16 cases of pancreatic GIST were reported. There were 7 males and 9 females, with a median age pf 56.5 (31-72)years. The clinical symptoms were nonspecific. The main presentation was upper abdominal pain or discomfort. A preoperative diagnosis was suspected on radiological examination. The tumor mainly appeared as a well-defined solid-cystic mass. Irregular enhancement appeared in the circumferential and solid portion of the tumor on enhanced CT scan sequences. The pancreatic and biliary ducts were rarely dilated. Endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration cytology (EUS-FNA) was helpful in preoperative diagnosis. Of the 15 surgical patients, 14 underwent complete resection, while the remaining received cyst-jejunostomy. A correct diagnosis was made on histopathology and immunohisto-chemistry. On a mean follow up of 21 months (range, 1-60) in 14 patients, all patients were alive.Recurrence or metastasis occurred in 4 patients with tumors of high malignant potential. On univariate analysis, the only significant predictor for adverse outcome was mitoses≥10/50 HPF. Conclusions Pancreatic GIST is a rare tumor of relatively low malignant potential. It has a better prognosis than ductal adenocarcinoma. It is important to arrive at a correct diagnosis and treat the tumor with radical resection. Aggressive surgical resection is potentially curative. Imatinib is recommended in the treatment of patients with tumors with high malignant potential.
