[Objective]To establish a method for obtaining well-differentiated goat chondrocytes quickly in large scale by RCSS using microcarriers technique. [Method]Articular chondrocytes were harvested from goat by sequential digestion with trypsin and collagenase , and then grown in RCSS bioreactor culture system which contained the Cytodex-3 microcarriers in the culture medium (DMEM) . Growth of chondrocytes on Cytodex-3 microcarriers was observed dynamically under phase contrast microscope . Immunocytochemical analysis was performed for type Ⅰcollagen and type Ⅱcollagen. [Result]The articular chondrocytes attached rapidly to the surface of Cytodex-3 microcarriers. Quick growth of these cells was observed after they fully spread onto the microcarriers. The density of chondrocytes increased by 15~17 times in later stage of culture as compared with the initial density. The harvested chondrocytes had no detectable staining for collagen type Ⅰ, but stained intensively for collagen type Ⅱ. [Conclusion]Microcarrier culture of chondrocytes can yield a large quantity of goat cells within a short time ,which will be of benefit for banking cartilage cells for reconstruction of impaired cartilage by way of tissue engineering.

Objective To explore the effects of partial body weight support treadmill training (PBWSTT) on motor function of lower extremities, walking ability and activities of daily living (ADL) in chronic hemiplegic patients after stroke. Methods28 patients with stable stroke (hemiplegic limbs Brunstrom s' scale≥Ⅲ) exceed 12 months after the onset were divided into PBWSTT group (n=14) and control group (n=14) randomly. Routine rehabilitation were used in the control group, and the PBWSTT group received PBWSTT in addition. They were assessed with Ashworth Spasticity Scale (ASS), Functional Ambulation Category (FAC), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), and the Functional Independence Measurement (FIM) before and 8 weeks after the treatment. ResultsThe ASS,FAC, FMA and FIM scores were all improved after treatment in both groups (P<0.05). The scores of FMA, FAC and FIM in the PBWSTT group after treatment exceeded that of control group (P<0.05), but there was no difference in the ASS (P>0.05). ConclusionPBWSTT may improve the motor function of lower extremities, walking ability, and ADL in chronic hemiplegic patients after stroke.
