Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2008;12(1):180-184
BACKGROUND: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is about 1 mm in diameter and about 1-10 μm in length cylinder-like material, and it only contains the spiral of carbon atoms arranged on the surface. Because of its unique tubular structure, lower density than that of graphite and with a high enough intensity, CNTs are expected to substitute bone.OBJECTIVE: To primarily study the influence of the content of polycarbosilane (PCS) and the sintering pressure on CNTs, look for the most optimum condition for the preparation of chunk CNTs, analyze the physical properties and biocompatibility of the material, and provide a choice for candidate implant denture material.DESIGN: The content of cement and the sintering pressure are adjusted in the experiment to make sure the most optimum condition for the preparation, and the capabilities of the material are observed and analyzed to make sure if that the material is suitable for implant denture.SETTING: Department of Stomatology, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University; Prosthodontics Staff Room, Oral Medical College of Central South University. MATERIALS: 80% pure molecules of CNT (Nano Lab Company USA), 20-40 nm in diameter, 5-20 mm in length, was provided by Nacheng Technology Development Corporation of Beijing. PCS was compounded by 502 Development Room of Defense Technology University, and the molecular weight is 1 300; Ten male white Wistar rats with 8 weeks old were provided by Animal Experiment Center of Guangxi Medical University. The treatments with the animals accorded to animal ethical standard in the experiment.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the Experimental Center of Material College, Central South University from January to August 2005. By using the spark plasma sintering (SPS), at the sintering temperature of 1 200 ℃, the pressure from 20 MPa to 60 MPa, PCS was used as the cement to produce the new chunk multi-wall CNTs.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: By using Archimedes method and adsorption of gases method, Japanese MitutoyoHM-101 little burden Vickers hardness meter was used to test the apparent bulk density, specific surface area, Vickers hardness at the different contents of PCS and sintering pressures. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to observe the microstructure of the material.RESULTS: ① Microstructure: SEM and TEM indicated that the nanotube structure of the material was retained after sintered. ② Conforming phase of material: X-ray diffractometer indicated that carbon nanotubes were felt by PCS pyrolysis product of SiC; along with the PCS content and sintering pressure increased, the specific surface area was reduced, and Vickers hardness and density increased. Specific surface area decreased. ③ Histological compatibility: The inflammatory reactions of the CNTs/PCS were little more serious along with the increase of the content of PCS. The physical property of carbon nanotubes was prepared in this way, it was closed to bone tissues, it had the better biocompatibility, and it was the suitable candidate implant denture material.CONCLUSION: Appropriate to PCS for the bonding agent, through SPS, at 1 200 ℃, 20-60 MPa sintering pressure, CNTs/PCS which the material property is closed to bone tissues can be prepared, and CNTs/PCS subcutaneous implantation in rats does not show significant rejection; therefore, it is suitable candidate for dental implants material.

Objective To investigate the effect of high uric acid(HUA) on insulin sensitivity (IS) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and its mechanism. Methods 3T3-L1 adipocytes were pretreated with HUA with or without NAC,and then stimulated by insulin. The cell viability of 3T3-L1 adipocytes was detected by CCK-8 assay. The glucose consumption was measured by glucose oxidase method. The levels of phospho-IRS-1,phospho-Akt and GluT4 protein were tested by western blot. Results HUA could inhibit insulin-induced glucose consumption,phosphorylation of Akt (Thr308),dephosphorylation of IRS-1 (Ser307) and the GluT4 protein expression (P<0.05). All the above could be blocked by NAC(P<0.05). Conclusion HUA can inhibit inulin stimulated IRS-1/Akt signaling and GluT4 expression,and thus induced insulin resistance in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of patients who underwent remnant-preserved anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with those who underwent conventional ACL reconstruction (ACLR).Methods From January 2010 to October 2012,93 eligible patients suffered from ACL injuries were randomly allocated into remnant-preserved group (ACLR with remnant preservation;n=48;Male/Female=34/14;Left/Right=25/23) and conventional group (ACLR without remnant preservation;n=45;Male/Female=33/12;Left/Right=22/23).The mean age of patients,time from injury to surgery,rates of combined meniscal injuries,and medial collateral ligament injury all showed no significant difference between the two groups preoperatively.All the patients underwent ACL reconstruction using 4-strand hamstring autografts.The postoperative assessments included knee functional scales (IKDC grade classification and Lysholm score),stability examinations (Lachman,pivot-shift,and KT-1000 arthometer),proprioceptive evaluations,and second-look arthroscopy.Results The average follow-up time was 25.4 months for the remnant-preserved group and 25.2 months for the conventional group.For IKDC grade classification,there were 32 patients with grade A,9 with grade B,1 with grade C in remnant-preserved group,whereas 30 with grade A,8 with grade B,2 with grade C in conventional group,which showed no significant difference between the two groups.Moreover,the Lysholm score (95.9±5.2 vs.95.4±1.7),Lachman test,pivot-shift test,KT-1000 arthometer (1.1±1.2 mm vs.1.2±0.9 mm),proprioceptive evaluations (joint position sense:3.6°± 1.8° vs.3.9°±2.2°) all showed no significant differences between the two groups.Additionally,the synovial coverage of grafted tendon under second-look arthroscopy was categorized as grade A in 11,grade B in 6,grade C in 2,grade D in 2 in remnant-preserved group,whereas grade A in 10,grade B in 5,grade C in 2,and grade D in 2 in conventional group,which still showed no significant difference.Conclusion In terms of the knee functional scales,stability examinations,joint position sense and graft synovial coverage,remnant-preserved ACLR group showed no superiority to the conventional ACLR group.
