To study the influence of different processing technigue in preparing allogeneic bone on proliferation rate and activity of rabbit osteoblasts in vitro, Osteoblasts were cultured combined with allogeneic bone prepared with different processing techniqne. Cell proliferation and activity were assessed 48 and 96h with MTT colorimetry and assay of alkaline phosphatase activity. The results showed that freezed bone (FB) and lyophilized bone (LB) inhibited cell growth and activity, while mineralized bone matrix (DBM),bone matrix gelatin (BMG), and autolyzed antigen extracted allogeneic bone(AAA) enhanced them. With the exception of FB and LB, the three others were biocompatible for osteoblasts.

Cell sheet engineering is an important technology to harvest the cultured cells in the form of confluent monolayers using a continuous culture method and a physical approach. Avoiding the use of enzymes, expended cells can be harvested together with endogenous extracellular matrix, cell-matrix contacts, and cell-cell contacts. With high efficiency of cell loading ability and without using exogenous scaffolds, cell sheet engineering has several advantages over traditional tissue engineering methods. In this article, we give an overview on cell sheet technology about its applications in the filed of tissue regeneration, including the construction of soft tissues (corneal, mucous membrane, myocardium, blood vessel, pancreas islet, liver, bladder and skin) and hard tissues (bone, cartilage and tooth root). This techonoly is promising to provide a novel strategy for the development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. And further works should be carried out on the operability of this technology and its feasibility to construct thick tissues.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel combined with cisplatin and fluorouracil for gastric cancer with liver metastases via indwelling hepatic arterial catheter. METHODS:56 gastric cancer patients with liver metastases were randomly divided into control group(28 cases)and observation group(28 cases). Control group received Paclitaxel injection 135 mg/m2,d1+Cisplatin injection 75 mg/m2,d1+Fluorouracil injection 750 mg/m2,d1-5,pumping administrated via central venous. Ob-servation group received Paclitaxel injection 135 mg/m2,d1+Cisplatin injection 75 mg/m2,d1+Fluorouracil injection 750 mg/m2,d1-5, administrated via indwelling hepatic arterial catheter. 3-4 weeks were a course,it lasted 8 courses at most. Magnesium isoglycyrrhiz-inate injection 200 mg/d was intravenously infused for liver protection in 2 groups during treatment. Clinical efficacy,serum car-cinoembryonic antigen (CEA),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels before and after treat-ment,and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups observed. RESULTS:Short-term clinical efficacy in observation group was significantly higher than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.01). Before treatment,there were no significant dif-ferences in CEA,ALT and AST levels(P>0.05). After treatment,CEA,ALT and AST levels in 2 groups were significantly high-er than before,ALT and AST levels in observation group were significantly higher than control group,while CEA level in observa-tion group was lower than control group,with statistical significances(P<0.05). The incidences of bone marrow suppression,nau-sea,vomiting and fever in observation group were significantly lower than control group,with statistical significances (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Paclitaxel combined with cisplatin and fluorouracil has good efficacy for gastric cancer with liver metastases via indwelling hepatic arterial catheter,while it exists liver dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the changes of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor typeⅠ(IP3RⅠ)expression in the myocardial tissue of rats with endotoxic shock and probe the possible mechanisms of myocardial depression.Methods Thirty-three male Wistar rats were divided into four groups:control group (n=6) were injected normal saline(4ml/kg),and the other 3 groups (n=9) were injected endotoxin via femoral vein with a different dose of 10mg/kg,5mg/kg,and the artificial sacrificed group(10mg/kg,the rats were sacrificed when the mean arterial pressure was first rapidly decreased,then gradually increased to the normal level).IP3RⅠexpression in the myocardial tissue of rats was detected by immunohistochemistry,Western blot and colloidal gold immunoelectron microscopy technique.Results IP3RⅠexpressions were increased significantly in each group of rats with endotoxic shock than in the control group (P<0.01),and most obviously enhanced in the the artificial sacrificed group.The expression of IP3RⅠwas related to the level of mean arterial pressure.Ectopic expression of IP3RⅠwas observed around the cell membrane of the cardiac myocytes.Conclusion (1)The expression of IP3RⅠenhances in the myocardial tissue of rats with endotoxic shock,and exists ectopic expression.(2) The expression of IP3RⅠwas related to the level of mean arterial pressure.(3) IP3RⅠ may be related to the cardiac contractility and involved in the regulation of mean arterial pressure.

BACKGROUND:Deep vein thrombosis is a common complication following bone surgeries,so its prevention and treatment become critical.However,there are few studies on the incidence of deep vein thrombosis after spine surgery in the elderly.OBJECTIVE:To explore the diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis after spine surgery in the elderly and its incidence after intervention with low-molecular-weight heparin.METHODS:All patients undergoing spine surgery were randomly divided into experimental and control groups.Patients in the experimental group were subjected to the subcutaneous injection of 0.4 mL of low-molecular-weight heparin (4 100 IU) at 12 hours postoperatively,once daily for 7-14 days from the next day.Those received no intervention served as controls.The thromboplastin time,thrombin time,activated partial thromboplastin time,and level of plasma fibrinogen were detected before and after treatment.Color Doppler ultrasound results of the lower extremity vessel before and after treatment and postoperative drainage volume were recorded.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) In the experimental group,the lower level of plasma fibrinogen and slightly prolonged thromboplastin time,thrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time were observed,but all were within the normal range.(2) The incidence of deep vein thrombosis in the experimental group (0％) was significantly lower than that in the control group (5％,P ＜ 0.05).(3) To conclude,low-molecular-weight heparin therapy significantly reduced the incidence of deep vein thrombosis after spine surgery.

The patient received the corresponding treatment plan in different periods, but eventually died due to hemophagocytic syndrome and rapid progress of the disease.Conclusion:CAEBV may cause lymphocytes to gradually evolve from polyclonal to monoclonal state.

The mechanical properties of natural and synthetic extracellular matrices affect cellular processes and regulate tissue formation. In order to explore the optimal environment for chondrocytes growth in vitro, we investigated the relationship between the mechanical properties of the alginate beads and the ability of chondrocyte proliferation in this study. We measured the compressive properties of alginate with different concentrations by INSTRON 3365,and found that compressive moduli significantly increased with increasing alginate concentration. The rabbit chondrocytes were encapsulated in 1%, 2% and 3% (w/v) alginate beads at high (1 x 10(7)/ml) density. After 4 week's culturing, all the three groups resulted in the limited proliferation of the chondrocytes and the formation of cell clusters resembling cartilaginous tissues. Chondrocytes proliferation was more rapid on lower concentrate gels (1%, 2%) than on the higher concentrate gels (3%). These results suggested that the mechanical properties of scaffold architecture had certain effect on chondrocytes proliferation.
