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.

ObjectiveTo explore the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation in chronic complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).Methods124 patients with chronic complications of type 2 DM were scored by 5 grades according as the severities of their symptoms. There were 5 kinds of patterns such as deficiency of Qi, deficiency of Yin, deficiency of Yang, blood stasis and retention of phlegm and fluid by which the TCM syndrome differentiation was generalized.ResultsThe sequence of TCM patterns was deficiency of Yin, blood stasis, deficiency of Qi, deficiency of Yang and retention of phlegm and fluid, and the syndrome of the two formers were greater than 50%. The proportion of unity of deficient and excessive pattern was 80.5%. Three larger syndrome types were deficiency of both Yin and Yang combined with blood stasis (17.7%), Qi-Yin deficiency with blood stasis ( 16.9 %) and Yin deficiency with blood stasis (16.9%). There was a statistically significant difference in TCM syndromes which were divided into different groups by course of diseases (P<0.05). At onset of DM, the typical symptoms were less observed in the group whose course of disease was less than 5 years, and only 39.1% of patients had the typical symptoms. But at the same time, the prevalences of hypertension and hyperlipidemia were higher in this group than in the others, respectively 63.0% and 87.0%.ConclusionThe primary syndrome is unity of deficient and excessive pattern in chronic complications of type 2 DM and deficiency of Qi and blood stasis are the commonest patterns in course of DM.

BACKGROUND: A few mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can be found in peripheral blood.OBJECTIVE: To isolate rabbit peripheral blood MSCs and induce its differentiation into osteoblasts.DESIGN, TIME AND SE'I-I'ING: The cytological in vitro study was performed at the Central Laboratory of Shangdong Provincial Hospital from June to December 2008.MATERIALS: A total of 6 New Zealand rabbits were purchased from Shandong Academy of Agricultural Sciences. α-MEM and L-DiEM were bought from Hyclone.METHODS: Full-thickness skin (3 cm×3 cm) (dorsal muscular layer was left) was incised at various sites of rabbit back, every 3days. Incised skin was dressed following orthotopic transplantation. Each rabbit received four consecutive wounds. Peripheral blood was collected from femoral vein before injury and 1 week after injury. MSCs were harvested from peripheral blood by density gradient cantrifugation. MSCs were divided into 2 groups, which were respectively incubated in α-MEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and L-DiEM. Cells at passage 2 and 1 ×105/cm2 were incubated in a 12-well plate and induced with H-DiEM containing osteogenic inductor.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The following parameters were measured: cell morphology before and after injury; colony forming efficiency of MSCs; outcome of osteogenic induction.RESULTS: Following primary medium change and before injury, obtained cells were normal. Twenty-four hours following incubation and after injury, MSCs were spindle or polygonal, and adhered to the wall. 5-6 days later, cell colonies appeared.Compared with the L-DiEM group, the number of primary culture colony formation in α-MEM group was significantly greater (P < 0.05). Peripheral blood MSCs were spindle, tdangle or polygonal, with the presence of processes, 2-3 nuclei and cell division phase, and slowly proliferated following osteogenic induction. At day 7 after differentiation of MSCs into osteoblasts, positive rate of alkaline phosphates was above 80%. At day 21, calcium deposition was detected by Alizarin Red S (positive staining).CONCLUSION: MSCs could be harvested from peripheral blood of wounded rabbits, with characteristics of osteogenic differentiation, α -MEM was more suitable than L-DiEM for peripheral blood MSCs to growin vitro.
