BACKGROUND:The tumor tissue engineering can build an integrated culture model to ful y simulate the in vivo microenvironment of tumor growth, which can be used to study tumor developmental dynamics and related treatment strategies.
OBJECTIVE:To review the three-dimensional culture of tumor cells using tumor engineering technology.
METHODS:PubMed database was retrieved for articles related to tumor engineering, three-dimensional culture of tumor cells, biological scaffold materials and tumor microenvironment published from January 1992 to March 2013.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Three-dimensional culture, because of its reproducible tissue and cellgrowth in vivo, has become an important platform for study of tumor resistance, invasiveness and tumor microenvironment. The three-dimensional culture has showed a trend to gradual y replace the flat culture technique in many fields, and provides a research platform which is very close to in vivo environment. In recent years, with the development of tumor engineering, a variety of new polymer materials have been used in the three-dimensional culture of tumor cells. Three-dimensional culture technology is becoming a hotspot in the field of tumor biology, in which, using a variety of methods and materials, the cells show a growth in the spatial manner to form a biological support or matrix similar to in vivo growth environment. Biomaterials have become the soil on which seed cells can grow wel , and plays an alternative to the extracellular matrix or the matrix of tissues and organs in the tumor engineering. Therefore, the three-dimensional cellculture has been widely used in cancer research, which has become a powerful tool to tumor drug resistance, angiogenesis, cel-cellinteraction, signal transduction, stem cells and other research.

BACKGROUND:Hypoxic death limits application of cells in transplantation and tissue regeneration.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effects of mangiferin on bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells against hypoxia injury-induced apoptosis resulted from cobalt chloride.
METHODS:Rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells were in vitro cultured and hypoxia cellmodel was established by cobalt chloride. Model cells were treated with mangiferin. Protective effects of mangiferin were detected using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide;cellapoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential were detected using flow cytometry.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Cobalt chloride significantly inhibited growth of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in a dose-dependent manner. The apoptosis rate of cells was (42.49±3.96)%after treated with 200μmol/L cobalt chloride for 12 hours, (46.37±4.49)%after treated for 24 hours. With increasing concentration of mangiferin, apoptosis of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in hypoxic model was gradual y reduced (P<0.01), indicating that mangiferin has a protective effect in a concentration-dependent manner on rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in hypoxic injury. Cobalt chloride can induce hypoxic model successful y in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. There are some advantages of accurate dose control, no special equipment requirements, and easy operation. Mangiferin can effectively inhibit bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells apoptosis under hypoxic injury.

BACKGROUND:3D printing technology for preoperative planning has been a trend at present. Moreover, this technology has been extensively used in bone tumor resection and maxilofacial surgery, but seldom used in fracture repair. OBJECTIVE: To explore the value of 3D printing technology application in preoperative evaluation of pelvic fracture, planning and during surgery. METHODS:Pelvic fracture patients underwent preoperative CT scan. Pelvic models of the patients were printed using 3D printing technology at 1:1. Preoperative processing was conducted, including choice of approach, design of incision exposure range, design of fracture reduction, pre-implantation position of the steel plate, optimal plastic design of steel plate, measurement of screw length and design of screw direction. Matta score of pelvic fracture reduction and Majeed score of pelvic function after repair were measured during folow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The operation time was 55-130 minutes, averagely (84.75±20.15) minutes. Intraoperative blood loss was 200-800 mL, averagely (417.00±173.58) mL. After operation, no incision infection, fracture nonunion, fixator loosening or breakage appeared. Al patients were folowed up for 8-24 months. The fracture healing time was 10-16 weeks, averagely 12.5 weeks. Fracture reduction was assessed according to Matta scoring: excelent in 15 cases, good in 3 cases, average in 2 cases, and poor in 0 case, with an excelent and good rate of 90%. Postoperative function was assessed according to Majeed scoring: excelent in 13 cases, good in 5 cases, average in 2 cases, and poor in 0 case, with an excelent and good rate of 90%. These findings showed that the application of 3D printing technology in pelvic fracture can determine the fracture’s displacement, is helpful for accurate reduction and plate modeling, reduces surgery duration and intraoperative blood loss and complication, finaly achieves better surgical result. 3D printing technology can better evaluate and plan the pelvic fracture before repair, and can be used as a routine project preparation of pelvic fracture repair.

BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have particularly applied prospects in tissue engineering. However, the death of transplanted cells limits the tissue regeneration. To search a new drug of anti-free radicals and protecting bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells is of great significance. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effects of mangiferin on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells against hypoxia. METHODS:Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in vitro and hypoxia cellmodel was established by cobalt chloride. cells were divided into normal control group, hypoxia group (treated with cobalt chloride), and mangiferin groups (cobalt chloride+20, 40, 80, 160 μmol/L mangiferin). After 12 and 24 hours of hypoxia, superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, and catalase levels in the cellsupernatant were determined. After 3, 6, 12, 24 hours of hypoxia, reactive oxygen species change was detected in each group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Mangiferin significantly improved the survival rate of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells exposed to hypoxia, increased the intracellular superoxide dismutase and catalase activities, decreased intracellular malondialdehyde and reactive oxygen species levels, thereby effectively protecting bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells against hypoxia. These findings indicate that mangiferin has effective protection against hypoxia and strong antioxidant ability, and can significantly reduce oxidative damage.

Objective To study nano-structured porous polycaprolactone combined with bone marrow stromal cells on CTGF expression in rabbit impaired cartilage. Methods 50 rabbits were randomly divided into normal group, model group, NSP-PCL group, BMSCs group, or NSP-PCL + BMSCs group. A model of rabbit impaired cartilage was surgically established. Then NSP-PCL, BMSCs, and NSP-PCL + BMSCs were separately administered to the latter three groups once a week from the 2nd week to the 5th week after the procedure. The impaired cartilage tissues were collected 24 h after the last administration. The cartilage tissues were pathologically examined by H & E staining. Number of surviving BMSCs was detected by Hoeehst33342 Markers 1 week and 3 weeks after transplantation. Levels of CTGF protein in cartilage were determined by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Results In the model group, cartilage layer became thinner, with proliferation of fibroblast cells and a obvious cartilage surface hollow; New cartilage cells appeared in the surface hollow of the impaired cartilage in each treatemnt group, with a thicker layer. The number of transplanted BMSCs after 3 weeks was significantly increased in BMSCs group and NSP-PCL + BMSCs group. As compared with the model group, levels of CTGF protein were increased in each treatment group, with significant differences (P < 0.05). Conclusions Nano-porous polycaprolactone combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can repair cartilage damage by enhancing the expression of CTGF protein.
