International Journal of Biomedical Engineering 2014;37(3):151-155,封3
Objective To prepare and characterize nanoparticles in-loaded one-way release-controlled chitosan membrane,and to explore the release-controlled rule of the film in vitro.Methods The chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by inverse crosslinking-emulsion method.The one-way release-controlled membrane was prepared by a casting method.Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to evaluate the morphological properties and particle size analyzer was used to analyze particle size distribution.The morphology of the membrane was inspected through scanning electron microscope (SEM).MTT assay was applied to determine the biological safety of chitosan nanoparticles.The distribution of the nanoparticles was observed by fluorescence microscope.The in vitro release studies were adopted to evaluate the release-controlled rule.Results The four kinds of nanoparticles had spherical shapes and uniform particle size.The size of the hyaluronic acid-coated chitosan nanoparticle was (255.40±39.10) nm.Hyaluronic acid-coated chitosan nanoparticles showed the best property of sustained release and biocompatibility.The membrane had a loose inner layer and a dense outer layer,and the distribution of the nanoparticles was uniform in the inner layer of the membrane.The release of protein from membrane was unidirectional and the membrane displayed good controlled release property.Conclusions The nanoparticles in-loaded one-way release-controlled chitosan membrane presents good one-way sustained release performance.It is potentially useful in delivery system of growth factors.

Objective To prepare three kinds of biodegradable film materials used for protein drug carrier,and compare their degradation and drug release behavior.Methods Three different biodegradable and controlled release films,gelatin,chitosan oligosaccharides and crosslinked chitosan oligosaccharides films were prepared.Protein release behavior was determined by the Bradford.At the same time,degradation rate and swelling rate were tested,and the biocompatibility of film was investigated by MTT assay.Results The release time of crosslinked chitosan oligosaccharides film was 168 h,which was longer than that of chitosan oligosaccharides film,and different in different solution.The degradation rate and the swelling rate of crosslinked chitosan oligosaccharides was 60% (360 h) and 110.45%,respectively,while the chitosan oligosaccharides membrane was 80% (360 h) and 113.03%.The MTI assay revealed that the crosslinked chitosan oligosaccharides film had better biocompatibility.Conclusions By comparing different properties,the crosslinked chitosan oligosaccharides film is the best choice for protein drug carrier.

Objective ThrouGh the detection of heat shock protein 90(HSP90)Gene expression in the peripheral blood in in patients with hypertensive disorders complicatinG preGnancy( HDCP ),to understand its role in the pathophysioloGy of HDCP. Methods The expression of HSP90 was observed in Groups of normal preGnant women,Gestational hypertension patients,mild preeclampsia patients,severe preeclampsia patients by ELISA. Results The expression of HSP90 in peripheral blood of Gestational hypertension Group,mild preeclampsia Group,severe preeclampsia Group were siGnificantly hiGher than normal preGnant Group( P<0. 0l ) . Conclusion HSP90 may have close relationship with the onset and development of HDCP. It can predict HDCP by detectinG the level of HSP90 in peripheral blood.
