Objective To construct a extracellular matrix-like collagen mimetic peptide-PEG hybrid hydrogel and to study the usage of this hydrogel in 3D culture of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs).Methods The hybrid hydrogel was synthesised by conjugating the cysteine at the end of the collagen mimetic peptide with the maleimine-modified multi-arm PEG.The circular dichroism spectra were used to characterize the triple helix structure and thermal stability of the collagen mimetic peptides.The rheology test and scanning electron microscopy were used to study the gelation process,mechanical strength and internal structure of the hydrogel.The rBMSCs were embedded in the hybrid hydrogel for 3D culture.The cell compatibility of the hydrogel and its effect on differentiation of the cells was studied.Results Collagen mimetic peptides could promote spontaneous formation of triple helix structure in the natural collagen,and the thermal transition temperature was 49.4 ℃.The formation process of the collagen mimetic peptides-PEG hybrid hydrogel was rapid,in which the porous network-like fibrous structure was formed.After the encapsulation of rBMSCs within the hydrogel for 24 h,most of the cells remained viable.Gene expression analysis showed that the hybrid hydrogel could affect the differentiation of rBMSCs.Conclusions The collagen mimetic peptide-PEG hybrid hydrogel possesses the characteristics of mild preparation condition,good mechanical strength and good cell compatibility,and is favorable to chondrocyte differentiation of rBMSCs.

OBJECTIVE To explore the sterilizing effect of low-temperature vacuum formaldehyde.METHODS The test group used the own-produced 140 L low-temperature vacuum formaldehyde sterilizer for sterilization;and the control group used "Xinhua" hydrogen peroxide plasma sterilizer.Sterilization effect of the two groups was monitored by biological indicator.RESULTS After 50 sterilization procedures run in test group,the biological indicators the bacterial were all killed,the qualification rate of sterilization was 100%.But after 30 sterilization procedures run in control group,only 8 procedures were qualified,the qualification rate of sterilization was 26%.The sterilizing effect of the two groups was significantly different(P

Objective:To study the relationship between genetic polymorphisms of GSTM1 GSTT1 and the susceptibility of laryngeal and hypopharyngeal carcinomas(LHC).Method:The GSTM1 an GSTT1 genotypes were determined by multiplex PCR analysis in 76 LHC patients and 76 population controls.The association be tween the genotypes and LHC risk was measured by odds ratios(ORs)and 95% confidence intervals(95%Cls).Resuit:The frequency of GSTM1 null genotype was 59.2% in the LHC patients and 42.1% in controls(OR=1.935,95%CI=1.069-3.510),the difference was significant(P＜0.01).The frequency of GSTT1 null genotype was 57.9% in the LHC patients and 51.3% in controls.The difference was not significant(P＞0.05).In smokers,the risk of the LHC increased in subjects of GSTM1 null genotype(OR=5.545,95%CI=2.158-13.528).Conclusion:GSTM1 polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to the LHC.It has the synergistic effects with smoking in the development of the LHC.GSTT1 genotypes might have no association with risk of the LHC in urban Linyi.

Objective To compare the diagnostic value of MRE and DWI in staging hepatic fibrosis in pa-tients with CHB. Methods In this retrospective analysis ,we investigated 93 patients with CBH and live fibrosis. Ninety-three patients were grouped according to their pathological grading of fibrosis ,from S0 to S4. Sixteen healthy patients were enrolled as the control group. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correla-tion between the stiffness and ADC value and their staging fibrosis. ROC analysis was conducted to compare the per-formance of the stiffness and ADC value in staging hepatic fibrosis. Results Both liver stiffness value(r=0.962, P<0.01)and ADC value(r=-0.823,P<0.01)were highly correlated with the stage of liver fibrosis. The area un-der ROC(AUC)for the detection of≥S1≥S2/≥S3/S4 stage fibrosis with the stiffness and ADC value were 0.963/0.868、0.995/0.947、0.998/0.948、0.996/0.889 respectively ,with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05 , resectively). Conclusions MRE and DWI have higher value ,and MRE is more accurate than DWI for staging hepatic fibrosis in patients with CHB.

In recent years, the development of bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) has been rapid, with many new structures and target combinations being created. The boom in bsAbs has led to the successive issuance of industry guidance for their development in the US and China. However, there is a high degree of similarity in target selection, which could affect the development of diversity in bsAbs. This review presents a classification of various bsAbs for cancer therapy based on structure and target selection and examines the advantages of bsAbs over monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Through database research, we have identified the preferences of available bsAbs combinations, suggesting rational target selection options and warning of potential wastage of medical resources. We have also compared the US and Chinese guidelines for bsAbs in order to provide a reference for their development.
