AIM:To reconstruct the tissue engineering blood vessel by using acellular matrix of porcine thoracic aorta tissue as the scaffold, and by inoculability of vascular endothelial cells (EC) from human umbilical cord vein. METHODS: The porcine thoracic aorta was treated with 1% Triton X-100 for preparing acellular vessel matrix, and the mechanical characterization was in succession modified by freeze-drying and thermal cross-linking techniques. Meanwhile, the mechanics capability of the vessel was measured. The endothelial cells isolated from umbilical cord vein were seeded on the acellular matrix scaffolds by tissue culture in vitro. The structure of acellular matrix was analyzed by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS: By treatment with 1% Triton X-100 for 84 h, the cells of thoracic aorta were fully come off and the three-dimensional structure of the matrix still remained. After modification by freeze-drying for 24 h and then thermal cross-linking under vacuum at 120 ℃ for 12 h, the tensile strength of the acellular matrix remarkable increased and reached the maximum breaking strength of 1.70 MPa. It was also showed that cultured endothelial cells grew on the surface of acellular matrix for 7 days and the typical structure of vessel-like intimal formation was observed under scanning electron microscopy. CONCLUSION: The acellular matrix and endothelial cells have favorable compatibility. The modified acellular matrix could be a good candidate scaffold for rebuilding the tissue engineering blood vessel.

Objective To evaluate the in vitro inhibitive activities of mycophenolic acid against hepatitis B virus in vitro. Methods The different concentrations of the test drugs in DMEM were added to the well with the monolayer growth of HepG2.2.15 cells. The culture medium was refreshed with DMEM containing the appropriate drugs every 3 days. At 3rd, 6th and 9th days, the supernatant was collected for HBsAg quantitative assay, total RNA was isolated from cells for RT-PCR and realtime-PCR assays.

BACKGROUND: Studies have demonstrated that intermittent high glucose can have a more severe impact on vascular endothelial function in comparison with persistent hyperglycemia.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of intermittent high glucose on the proliferation and apoptosis of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) from human peripheral blood in vitro as well as the production of malondialdehyde (MDA) and antioxidant. METHODS: Total mononuclear cells were isolated from human peripheral blood by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation and then the cells were placed on fibronectin-coated culture dishes. After 7 days of culture, the adherent cells were identified as EPCs by laser scanning confocal microscope. The cells were synchronized and then stimulated with glucose 5.5 mmol/L (normal control group), 20 mmol/L (constant high glucose group), and 5.5/20 mmol/L (intermittent high glucose group, 5.5 and 20 mmol/L glucose culture solution was changed every 8 hours) for 72 hours. EPCs proliferation and apoptosis was measured by MTT assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The content of MDA and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in culture solution were detected with colorimetry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After EPCs were exposed to constant high glucose (20 mmol/L) and intermittent high glucose (5.5/20 mmol/L) for 72 hours, proliferated cells were significantly reduced and the apoptosis rate was significantly increased compared with those exposed to normal glucose (P < 0.01). Furthermore, there was a significant increase in MDA contents as well as a significant reduce in SOD activities in the constant high glucose and intermittent high glucose group (P < 0.01), especially in the latter group. These findings indicated that both intermittent high glucose and constant glucose could inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of EPCs; however, intermittent high glucose appears to worsen the effects on EPCs. This is maybe due to the increased oxidative stress.

Objective To investigate gene variation and the relationship between gene variation and pathogenicity of transfusion transmitted virus(TTV).Methods The TTV DNA in the serum sample from a blood donor(BD) and a chronic non-A-G severe hepatitis(CSH) patient with TTV infection was amplified by using PCR.The purified PCR product was cloned and 10 clones from each case were sequenced.The sequences were compared among different clones and analyzed by Phylogentic tree.Results There were two different TTV strains in the BD and seven different TTV strains in the chronic non-A-G severe hepatitis patient.The TTV clones in the BD were of G1a subtype and those of the CSH were of G1a and G1b subtype.Conclusion Gene variant of TTV was much more complicated in the CSH patients than that in the BD ones.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have indicated that cellular apoptosis might be related with the pathological process of diabetic penis erection function disorder. OBJECTIVE: To observe the expression of apoptosis inhibiting gene Bcl 2 and apoptosis inducing gene Bax in the penis cavernosal tissue of diabet ic rats based on the diabetic rat model. DESIGN: A randomized controlled experimental study. SETTING: The Central Laboratory of Jiamusi University. MATERIALS: Fifty male adult Wistar rats were selected. The rats wererandomly divided into normal control group (n=10) and the model group(n=40). The rats in the model group were divided into subgroups according to whether they had diabetes mellitus, namely alloxan medicine control group (n=9) and diabetes mellitus group (n=12). METHODS: The experiment was conducted at the Central Laboratory of Jiamusi University. 20 g/L Alloxan was injected intravenously into the tails of the rats in the model group at a dose of 50 mg/kg. Urine and blood sugar were examined 48 hours after the injection. Diagnosis of diabetes was established when urine sugar was (+++)～ (++++) and blood sugar was above 16.67 mmol/L. The rats in the alloxan group (n=9) were not found to have diabetes mellitus. The rats in the diabetic group were found to have diabetes mellitus, and dead rats were excluded. The blood sugar and urine sugar were measured before experiment and 48 hours, 2, 4, 6and 8 weeks after the experiment. After 8 weeks, the penises were harvested and fixed in 10% neutral formaldehydum polymerisatum. The remaining structures were thoroughly embedded in paraffin, and sections were obtained. Then, apoptosis and the protein of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected in the erectile tissues. 0.5 cm of the middle-section of bulbocavernosus body was collected, and it was then fixed in 10 g/L neutral formaldehydum polymerisatum at 4 ℃ for 24 hours. Then, 5-7 μ m paraffin sections were obtained. The cellular apoptosis was detected with in situ end labeling method. Bcl-2 and Bax gene expressions were detected with histochemical staining. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cellular apoptosis in the erectile tissues of the rats and genes Bcl-2 and Bax expressions. RESULTS: Nineteen rats died after model establishment and 31 rats entered the stage of the result analysis. ①Cellular apoptosis of the erectile tissues of the rats: The apoptosis rate in the diabetic group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group and alloxan group (16.26±6.63)%,(0.38±0.02)%, (0.40±0.03)%,(q=4.45, P ＜ 0.01). ② Expression of Bcl-2gene of the erectile tissues of the rats: Bcl-2 gene expression of the diabetic group was significantly lower than that in the normal control group and alloxan group [(12.04±2.30)%,(20.88±3.02)%,(21.23±2.58)%,q=4.45,P＜0.01].③Expression of Bax gene in the erectile tissues of the rats: Bax gene expression of the diabetic group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group and alloxan group [(18.35±2.00)%, (9.33±0.56)%,(10.32±0.63)%, (q=4.45, P ＜ 0.01)]. ④ The ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax: The ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax of the diabetic group was significantly lower than that in the normal control group and alloxan group. CONCLUSION: That the cellular apoptosis of the erectile tissues in rats with diabetes mellitus increased suggests that cellular apoptosis is related with diabetic erectile dysfunction. Also, Bcl-2/Bax was down-regulated,and this indicates that Bcl-2 and Bax cooperates in the cellular apoptosis in the diabetic erectile tissues.

Objective To investigate the possibility of anti-liver fibrosis of 13-estradiol nanoparticle prepared by interfacial polymeri-zation method with butylcyanoacylate as carrier material (E2-PBCA-NP) and its effect on the expression of transforming growth factor β1 and connective tissue growth factor in pig serum induced animal fibrotic model. Methods Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were random divided into five groups. Except normal control group, other four groups were all given intraperitoneal injection with pig serum. Therapeutic drugs were administered to rats from the ninth week after injection of pig serum. All rats were killed at the end of the twelfth week. Several experi-ments were done as below, the tissues of liver were observed by Masson staining, and the mRNA of TGF-β1 and CTGF of liver samples were detected by RT-PCR. Meanwhile, the expression of TGF-β1 and CTGF protein were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results It showed that both E2 and E2-PBCA-NP treatment groups had lower stage of liver fibrosis, according to the observation of pathology by Masson staining (P < 0.05). The anti-liver fibrosis effect of E2-PBCA-NP treatment group was better than that of E2 treatment group (P < 0.05). The mRNA and protein level of TGF-β1 and CTGF were markedly reduced by E2 and E2-PBCA-NP treatment, compared with liver fibrotic model groups (P <0.01). There was no statistical difference between E2-PBCA-NP and E2 treatment (P >0. 05), while no significant change was observed in blank nano -particle group (P > 0.05). Conclusion Both E2-PBCA-NP and E2 had anti-liver fibrosis activity. E2-PB-CA-NP has stronger anti - liver fibrosis activity than E2, which could be resulted from the inhibition of TGF-β1 and CTGF expression.
