1.Embryonic stem cell differentiation towards cardiomyocytes and its application in cardiac tissue engineering
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(34):-
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) show potential prospect of wide application in establishing cardiac pharmacological model system, forming three-dimensional cardiac tissues and constructing biological pacemaker. The process of ESCs differentiating into cardiomyocytes is to simulate heart growth and development in vitro. The cases of transplanting ESCs into animal models confirm that the cardiac function is improved. Moreover, the research and exploitation of tissue engineered cardiac muscle tissue with vessel system brings hope for clinical cardiac muscle restoration. ESC-derived pacemaker can functionally integrate with quiescent ventricular muscle cells to induce rhythmic electrical and contractile activities in vitro. However, the immunological rejection limits its clinical application. Although ESCs have strong differentiation potential, the problems such as the differentiation process towards cardiomyocytes, ESC induction and signal regulatory pathway, and whether induced cardiomyocytes can substitute in vivo cardiomyocytes still need exploration.

Objective:To evaluate the vestibular function of motion sickness. Method:VNG, which tests the vestibular function of horizontal semicircular canal,and CPT, which tests vestibulospinal reflex and judge proprio-ceptive,visual and vestibular status, were performed in 30 motion sickness pations and 20 healthy volunteers(control group). Graybiel score was recorded at the same time. Result:Two groups' Graybiel score (12. 67±11. 78 vs 2. 10±6. 23;rank test P<0. 05),caloric test labyrinth value [(19. 02±8. 59)°/s vs (13. 58±5. 25)°/s ;t test P< 0. 05],caloric test labyrinth value of three patients in motion sickness group exceeded 75°/s. In computerized pos-tourgrphy testing(CPT) , motion sickness patients were central type(66. 7%) and disperse type(23.3%);all of contral group were central type. There was statistical significance in two groups' CTP area, and motion sickness group was obviously higher than control group. While stimulating vestibulum in CPT, there was abnormality (35%-50%)in motion sickness group and none in contral group. Generally evaluating CPT,there was only 2 pro-prioceptive hypofunction,3 visual hypofunction, and no vestibular hypofunction, but none hypofunction in contral group. Conclusions Motion sickness patients have high vestibular susceptible, some with vestibular hyperfunction. In posturography,a large number of motion sickness patients are central type but no vestibular hypofunction, but it is hard to keep balance when stimulating vestibulum.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of decompression in the treatment of large jaw cystic lesions.Methods 42 patients suffered from large jaw cystic lesions were randomly divided into two groups,21 patients in the control group performed the traditional curettage surgery;21 patients in the experiment group performed the decompression surgery.The intraoperative blood loss,operative time,the incidence rate of postoperative pain and postoperative infection,follow-up recurrence rate were compared between the two groups.Results The intraoperative blood loss,operative time,postoperative pain and postoperative infection rates of the experiment group were significantly better than the control group,the differences between two groups were significant(P < 0.05).The recurrence rate of the control group and the experiment group was 24.0%,4.8%.The recurrence rate of the experiment group was significantly lower than the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Compared to the traditional curettage surgery,decompression surgery can reduce blood loss,shorter operative time,reduce postoperative infection,reduce the risk of recurrence,then improve the clinical efficacy.

Background Attack of primary acute angle-closure glaucoma (PAACG) often cause damage of retinal function.To measure the structural change after acute angle-closure glaucoma attack is of an important clinical significance.Flourier domain OCT(FD-OCT) is available.Objective This study was to measure and compare the thickness of peripapillary and macular retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macular volume in PAACG patients and normal subjects.Methods A case-controlled study was designed.Twenty-five eyes after acute angle-closure glaucoma attack and 25 fellow eyes were collected from April,2011 to February,2012 in Affiliated Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College,and 25 eyes of normal subjects with the matched age and gender were enrolled at the same period.The thicknesses of RNFL and macula as well as the volumes of macula were measured by FD-OCT in all the eyes 2 weeks after acute angle-closure glaucoma attack.The outcomes were compared among the attacked eyes,fellow eyes and normal control eyes.Results The average thicknesses of RNFL were (125.72 ± 28.57),(108.36 ±9.31) and (106.10± 10.97)μm in the attacked eyes,fellow eyes and normal control eyes,showing a significant increase in the attacked eyes (all at P < 0.05).The RNFL thickness values in the superior,interior and nasal quadrants at optical disc were significantly higher in the attacked eyes than those of the fellow eyes and normal control eyes (all at P<0.05),but no significant differences were found in temporal and temporal-lower quadrants among the three groups (P=0.081,0.766).The thickness values of macular area were (283.72 ± 18.33),(280.28 ± 16.85) and (289.14±10.60)μm in the attacked eyes,fellow eyes and normal control eyes,with no significant difference among them (Fgroup =2.048,P =0.136),and fellow eyes were significantly reduced in comparison with the normal control group (P<0.05),and those in the attacked eyes was not significantly reduced in comparison with the normal control group (P =0.224).The macular volumes were (5.589±0.355),(5.532±0.325) and (5.720±0.241)mm3in the attacked eyes,fellow eyes and normal eyes,without statistically significant difference among them (Fgup =1.027,P=0.363).The macular thickness values were lower in the outer race than those of the inner race and followed the pattern of nasal >superior> inferior>temporal quadrants.At the temporal,superior,nasal and inferior quadrants of inner race,the temporal quadrant of the outer race,the central area,the macular thickness and volume values were declined in the attacked eyes and fellow eyes compared with the normal control eyes (all at P<0.05).Conclusions The edema of RNFL is more serious than that of macula in the eyes within 2 weeks after acute angleclosure glaucoma attack.The retinas of macular zone are thinner,and the macular volumes are smaller in the attacked eyes and fellow eyes than those in the normal control eyes.

This research is for the purpose of comparative analysis of the microbial flora structure in the chilled beef with no packing and cling film, which under the same terms of sale. It was used the V3 area fragment of 16S rDNA to carry on PCR-DGGE, Meanwhile used the 16S rDNA sequence to analysis the microbial flora structure of the two samples, according to the technology of clone .The research discovered that the flora structure displays a biggish difference; there was 6 OTU in the chilled beef with cling film, mainly was that Lactococcus(28%), Lactobacillus (26%), Carnobacterium(18%) and Brochothrix (10%); but there was 18 OTU in the chilled beef with no packing, mainly was that Lactococcus(28%), Brchothrix(18%), Acinetobacter (11%). The result indicates that cling film played a certain inhibitory action regarding the Staphylococcus as well as the cold pole bacteria and such bacterium. And it can provide a certain theory ba-sis for the meat processing in the department of microorganism’s control.
