BACKGROUND:Acelular matrix which is decelularized but retains the matrix components in the nature materials can reduce the immunogenicity of natural materials effectively and keep the material mechanical strength. OBJECTIVE:To prepare the natural biological scaffold material by using elution method to remove the cels in the rabbit costicartilage matrix. METHODS:After removal of the surrounding tissues, the costicartilage samples from New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided them into three groups: costicartilages untreated as normal control group, detergent-enzyme digestion for 48 hours as 48-hour treatment group, detergent-enzyme digestion for 96 hours as 96-hour treatment group. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and electron microscope were used to observe decelularized effects. At 7 days of induction, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels, 3×109/L, were colected and co-cultured with alogeneic acelular costicartilage matrixin vitro. At 3 and 7 days of co-culture, the composite was taken for observation of cel growth on the cel-free substrate surface under electron microscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Two or three cartilage cels were closely packed in each cartilage pit, began to depigment using the detergent-nuclease digestion method, and then completely depigmented at 96 hours after treatment. At 3 days of co-culture, there were a large amount of polygon-shaped adherent cels with pseudopodiasobserved on the acelular matrix surfacein vitro, and cels could proliferate and divide in partial regions. At 7 days of co-culture, adherent cels spread mostly throughout the acelular matrix surface, these cels were flat-shaped and extended with multiple interconnected processes. Mass of secreted excelular matrixes were deposited on the matrix surface and showed frost-like changes, indicating the prepared acelular matrix has favorable cytocompatibility.

Objective To study the main causes of hearing disability in Beijing residents. Methods The second national sample survey on disability of China was carried out in Beijing on April 1,2006. Muhiphase, stratified, proportional and cluster samplings were adopted to investigate 74 795 residents in Beijing, including 36 753 males and 38 042 females. 55 773 were urban residents while 19 022 from rural areas. The method of descriptive study was used to analyze the data of hearing disabitity in Beijing. Results Top five causes of hearing disability (including multiple disabilities) in Beijing were presbycusis, unknown, systematic diseases, noise induced, and odds media. The prevalence was 1.10%, 0.30%, 0.30%, 0.20% and 0.17%, respectively. Heredity, unknown and others were the main causes of children under 0～14 years. Unknown, ototoxicity, and otitis media were the main causes of people aged 15 ～59 years. Presbycusis, systematic diseases, noise induced and unknown were main causes of people aged 60 years and older. Presbycusis was the top cause of hearing disability for male and female residents as well as people live in urban and rural areas in Beijing. Conclusion Presbyeusis, unknown, systematic diseases, noise induced, and otitis media were main causes of hearing disability (including multiple disabilities) in Beijing.

Objective:To compare the proliferative and periodontal specific differentiation abilities of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) at different passages,and to investigate whether long term culturing would have a negative influence on their proliferation and specific differentiation capacity,thus providing a theoretical basis for further in-depth research on periodontal regeneration and the possible clinical applications of iPSCs.Methods:IPSCs derived from human gingival fibroblasts at passages 5,10,15 and 20 were recovered and cultured in vitro.Their morphology and proliferation rates were observed respectively.We further induced the iPSCs at different passages toward periodontal tissue under the treatment of growth/differentiation factor-5 (GDF-5) for 14 days through the EB routine,then compared the periodontal differentiation propensities between the different passages of iPSCs by detecting their calcified nodules formation by Alizarin red staining and assaying their relative periodontal tissue related marker expressions by qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence staining,including bone related markers:osteocalcin (OCN),bone sialoprotein (BSP);periodontal ligament related markers:periostin,vimentin;and cementum related markers:cementum attachment protein (CAP),cementum protein 1 (CEMP1).The untreated spontaneous differentiation groups were set as negative controls respectively.Results:iPSCs at different passages all showed a high proliferative capacity when cultured in vitro and turned into a spindlelike shape similar to fibroblasts upon periodontal specific differentiation.All iPSCs formed typical calcified nodules upon GDF-5 induction by Alizarin red staining in comparison to their untreated controls.The relative calcium deposition at all passages had been significantly upgraded under the treatment of GDF-5 (P5:t =2.125,P =0.003;P10:t =2.246,P =0.021;P15:t =3.754,P =0.004;P20:t =3.933,P =0.002),but no significant difference in their calcium deposition were detected within passages 5,10,15 and 20 (periodontal differentiation:F =2.365,P =0.109;spontaneously differentiation:F =2.901,P =0.067).Periodontal tissue related marker expressions of iPSCs at all passages had also been significandy upgraded under the treatment of GDF-5 (P ＜ 0.05),but still,no significant difference in their expression levels of periodontal tissue related proteins were detected within passages (BSP:F =0.926 7,P=0.450;vimentin:F=0.917 1,P=0.455;CEMP1:F=2.129,P=0.1367).Conclusion:Our results preliminarily confirmed that long term culturing won't influence the proliferation capacity and periodontal specific differentiation propensity of iPSCs,as they can still proliferate and differentiate toward periodontal cells with high efficiency upon growth factor induction after continuous passaging.Therefore,iPSCs could be recognized as a promising cell source for future possible application in periodontal tissue regeneration.
