Objective To compare the effect of 2 decellularizing methods,sodium deoxycholate plus Triton X-100 or plus DNase and Rnase,in the preparation of acelluar allograft spinal cord scaffold in order to provide an ideal natural spinal cord scaffold to bridge the nerve gap.Methods Spinal cord was removed from health rats,and then decellularized by the method of freeze thawing(immersing in 3% sodium deoxycholate followed by the mixture of 1?103 U/ml DNase and RNase),or by chemical extraction(immersing in 1% Triton X-100 and then 1% sodium deoxycholate).HE staining,myelin staining and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) were employed to evaluate the spinal cord scaffold after the 2 methods of decellularization.Results Both cells and myelin were completely decellularized with the 2 methods.In cross section,network of the extracellular matrix was presented without axon,sheath and cells nucleus being seen in the scaffold.Typical network of empty tubes were viewed in longitudinal sections.Conclusion An ideal spinal cord scaffold can be produced with these 2 decellularizing methods in tissue engineering.The scaffold made by the 2 methods have similar three dimensional structure with normal spinal cord,so can be used as a graft to bridge the nerve gap directly or as a scaffold to implant the seeding cells in spinal cord tissue engineering.

Objective To investigate the expression of CKLF?2 mRNA in rats′ myocardium at different development phase. Methods Total RNA was extracted from fetal rat hearts at day12 and day 18 after coitus, and from new-born rat hearts right after birth, day 3, day 7 and day 21 after birth, as well as from adult rat hearts. The expression of CKLF?2 mRNA was tested by competitive polymerase chain reaction (CPCR). Results Compared with the postnatal myocardium, the expression of CKLF?2 mRNA obtained its peak level in the 12-day-post coitus, which then decreased gradually to a relatively low level until birth. It increased slightly at birth and subsided to the lowest level in adulthood. Conclusion CKLF?2 probably takes part in the procession of the myocardial proliferation and the development of rat′s heart.

Objective To evaluate the in vitro biological safety of acellular spinal cord scaffold so as to provide theoretical basis for constructing the ideal tissue engineering scaffold of spinal cord.Methods A piece of thoracic spinal cord for 2 cm removed from SD rats was harvested and then was treated by freezing and thawing and chemical extraction with 3% sodium deoxyeholate and 1 KU/ml DNaseI and RNaseA. Gross observation and histological examination of the acellular spinal cord scaffold were carried out to learn the condition of the extracellular matrix scaffold. The biological safety of the acellular spinal cord scaffold was evaluated. Results In cross section, network of the extracellular matrix was presented in the scaffold. The cells, myelin and axons disappeared after the spinal cord was treated with sodium deoxycholate, DNaseI and RNaseA. Typical network of empty tubes were viewed in longitudinal sections. General toxic reaction, pyrogen test, hemolysis test and cytotoxicity test were conforming to the standard of materials. Conclusion As neotype tissue engineering material, the acellular spinal cord scaffold has satisfactory biological safety.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of succus entericus reinfusion with continuous enteral nutrition on the barrier function of intestinal mucosa and nutritional status in patients with stomal type fistulas. Methods Sixteen patients with stomal type fistula from July 1995 to May 2008 were enrolled in the study. A]l patients met the following conditions: gut function returned normal; abdominal infection was controlled; total enteral nutrition was provided ; and the length of small intestine for succus entericus reinfusion was more than 50 cm. Intestinal mucosa was taken at 25 to 30 cm away from stoma of fistula by endoscope 0, 7, and 14 days after reinfusior. Hematoxylineosin staining was performed to count the number of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IIELS). In addition,proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was measured with immunohistochemical staining. Serum protein levels were determined by immunonephelometry. ResultsThe percentage of IIELS in intestinal mucosa ( 19.06％ ±4.81％ vs. 12.81％ ±2.95％, P=0.000) and the percentage of PCNA positive cells ( 12.13％ ±4.33％ vs.6.44％ ± 2.34％, P =0.000) 14 days after succus entericus reinfusion were significantly higher than those on the day of reinfusion. Serum fibronectin level increased from ( 152.80 ± 16.50 ) to ( 227.05 ± 45.36 ) mg/L ( P =0.000), and transferring protein level increased from ( 2.16 ± 0.52 ) to ( 2.62 ± 0.41 ) g/L ( P =0.017 ) 14days after succus entericus reinfusion. ConclusionSuccus entericus reinfusion is effective in protecting the intestinal mucosa in patients with stomal type fistulas.

Clinical data of 14 patients with iatrogenic duodenal injuries treated in hospital from January 2000 and January 2010 were retrospectively reviewed.Iatrogenic duodenal injuries were found intraoperatively in 9 cases,in whom repair or additional jejunostomy was performed and all were cured and discharged.In 2 patients the duodenal injuries were found within 24 hours postoperatively,1 was cured,another had low flow duodenal fistula and cured with conservative treatment.Duodenal bypass and extraoral drainage were performed in 2 patients whose duodenal injuries was found 72 hours after surgery and died from severe infection of retroperitoneal space and multiple organ failure respectively.One patient whose duodenal injury was found 7 d postoperatively suffered from septic shock and died in 4 h after admission.The results suggest that early detection and early management would result in satisfied outcome for patients with iatrogenic duodenal injuries,the first 24 hours are crucial.
