Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(10):-
China Journal Full-text Database (CJFD) was undertaken to identify relevant articles. This article aims to classify data on ossicular replacement prosthesis (ORP) and to analyze the application of different kinds of ORP to auditory rehabilitation. Studies demonstrated that different ORP had different advantage or disadvantage. Autologous cartilage is convenient to obtain and difficult to absorb such as antilobium cartilage, nasal septum cartilage and so on. But degeneration and absorption are detected in a long-term. Homograft tooth with good histocompatibility, tooth sound conduction, weak rejection and high stability is easy to collect, to store for a long time, and to apply in clinic, as well as without organic matter after disposing. However, this kind of tooth is easy to move and cannot be used by most physicians. Titanium ORP possesses good biocompatibility and histocompatibility, avirulence, corrosion resistant properties, light mass, and is hard to dislocate, can firmly connect to the stirrup bone, resulting in a postoperative significant outcome. Bioceramic ORP is widely used in ear surgery, because it has inorganic salt component, good biocompatibility, and low dislocation rate. With deep studies on biomaterials and discovery of new materials, many scholars have designed a compound auditory ossicle to combine the predominance of various materials and to avoid their shortcomings.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) on high glucose-induced rat mesangial cells proliferation and phenotype transformation. Methods Rat mesangial cells were cultured and incubated in media containing either 5 mmol/L D-glucose or 30 mmol/L D-glucose with or without addition of wortmannin, or uPA (105 U/L) for different time periods. At the end of the incubation period, mesangial cells proliferation was assessed by MTT assay and flow cytometric analysis. Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) and p27kip1 expression and activation of Akt were evaluated by Western blotting and Akt kinase assay respectively. Furthermore, the expression and distribution of α-SMA were detected with laser confocal microscopy. Results MTT assay and flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that high glucose induced mesangial cells proliferation (P<0.05) and an incresed proportion of cells in G2/M+S stage after 24 h incubation (P<0.01), which were attenuated by uPA or wortmannin (P<0.01). High glucose induced the enhance of Akt activity after 3 h (P<0.05), and the effect was inhibited by wortmannin or uPA (P<0.01). High glucose did not alter CDK2 expression (P>0.05),but significantly inhibited p27kip1 expression (P<0.05), which was attenuated by wortmannin or uPA (P<0.01). High glucose induced the up-regulation of α-SMA expression and perinucleus location in mesangial cells after 24 h (P<0.01), which were alleviated by wortmannin or uPA (P<0.01). Conclusion uPA up-regulates p27kip1 expression and counteracts high glucose-induced mesangial cells proliferation and phenotype transformation via blocking PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

Objective How to avoid the rejection of the synthetic patch and human tissue has become an urgent problem to be solved.The article investigated thein vivobiocompatibility of polypropylene mesh scaffold with adipose -derived stem cells(ADSCs) in rabbits. Methods Rabbit ADSC suspension were prepared.ADSCs were seeded onto polypropylene mesh scaffolds after passage and amplification and cultured invitro for 1 week .The polypropylene mesh and ADSC fixed polypropylene mesh were implanted respec-tively into the surface of rectus abdominis in rabbits.4 weeks later, adhesion and erosion of the meshes were evaluated, HE staining was used in histological observation and RT-PCR was applied to detect the dynamic changes of VEGF mRNA level.ADSCs were isola-ted from rabbit subcutaneous adipose tissue after collagenase digesting, filtrating and centrifuging. Results The results of flow cy-tometry showed that the expressions of CD44, CD73, CD90, CD45, CD14 and CD34 were 98.54%, 95.32%, 98.49%, 1.21%, 3.01%, 2.14%, respectively.Polypropylene mesh, ADSC-fixed polypropylene mesh had different degrees of corrosion and adhesion , but polypropylene mesh showed denser adhesion.In comparison with polypropylene,ADSC fixed polypropylene meshes induced a mil -der chronic inflammation response,with lower scores for inflammation (1.1 ±0.2 vs 0.6 ±0.1, P=0.001), higher scores for neovas-cularization (17.0 ±0.0 vs 2.6 ±0.3, P=0.000) and fibroblastic proliferation(0.9 ±0.1 vs 2.2 ±0.2, P=0.001).Relative a-mounts of VEGF mRNA of were significantly lower for ADSC-fixed polypropylene compared with the remaining polypropylene meshes (t=94.6, P<0.05). Conclusi on Polypropylene mesh scaffold with ADSCs exhibits excellent cellular compatibility and have a bright future in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the effect of nobiletin,a citrus polymethoxy flavonoid,on hepatocarcinoma Heps in mice and to explore its immunological mechanism.Methods Mice tumor models were made by transplantation of Heps hepatocarcinoma cell strain.The tumor mass was weighed to calculate the tumor-inhibitory rates.The whole cellular immunity was observed by delayed type hypersensitivity(DTH).MTT assay was used to detect the proliferation of T and B lymphocyte,and the activities of cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTL) and natural killing cells(NKC) were measured by lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) releasing method.Results Nobiletin could markedly inhibit the growth of hepatocarcinoma Heps(solid tumor).The decreased DTH in hepatocaricinoma mice was enhanced significantly,and T and B lymphocyte proliferation were increased by nobiletin.Meanwhile,the killing activities of CTL and NKC were promoted obviously.Conclusion Improvement of the immune function may be a vital route of nobiletin in inhibiting the proliferation of hepatocarcinoma Heps in mice.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of stent insertion combined with high-intensity focused ultrasound(HIFU) ablation for malignant obstructive jaundice caused by pancreatic carcinoma.Methods From January 2013 to February 2017,a total of 80 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice caused by pancreatic carcinoma underwent biliary stent insertion in our center,who were divided into combined treatment(stent insertion with HIFU ablation) group(n=38) and solitary stent insertion group(n=42).The stent patency time and survival time were compared between the two groups.Results Relief of jaundice were archived in all patients in both groups.Cholangitis was observed in 7 cases in both two groups.Reobstruction of stent was observed in 15 patients in both two groups.The median stent patency time was 179 days in combined treatment group and 119 days in solitary stent insertion group(P<0.01);the median survival time was 209 days in combined treatment group and 145 days in solitary stent insertion group,the differences were significant(P<0.01).Based on the univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses,the predictors of prolonging survival included subsequent HIFU ablation after stent insertion and earlier tumor stage(P<0.05).Conclusion Combined biliary stent insertion and HIFU ablation is a safe and effective method for malignant obstructive jaundice caused by pancreatic carcinoma,and seems to extend stent patency time and survival when compared with biliary stent only.
