Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(15):-
AIM: To establish the co-culture mode of tissue-engineered tracheal seeding cells, and compare with the routine culture, so as to provide the fundament of tissue-engineered trachea construction by cell compound materials. METHODS: The experiment was completed at the laboratory, Department of Respiratory Diseases, Tangdu Hospital, the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from May 2006 to May 2007.①Three healthy New Zealand male rabbits, weighed (250.00?0.75) g, were used in this study.②Co-culture mode: The tracheal epithelial cells and fibroblasts were isolated and then co-cultured for 7-10 days. The two kinds of cells were distinguished according to their different tolerances to trypsin. Subsequently, A hole received 0.5 g/L trypsinization, cells were suspended in DMEM medium containing 0.05 volume fraction of CO2 and then transplanted into B hole (fibroblasts); again, A hole was added with 2.5 g/L trypsin for digestion, afterwards cells were suspended with K-FSM medium and transplanted into C hole (tracheal epithelial cells). Routine culture: after isolation, tracheal epithelial cells were cultured and fibroblasts were purified, respectively.③The co-cultured cells and the traditionally cultured cells were compared via cell growth curve and cell proliferation detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazo-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. RESULTS: ①Cell growth: Co-cultured cells grew well, those in A hole increased intercellular apace after trypsinization, while cells in B hole were shaped as fusiform, without the manifestation of typical road stone-like cells, and cells in C hole were apposite, showing lamellar road stone-like morphology.②Cell growth curve: The growth curve of co-cultured cells was identical with that of cells by routine culture method.③Cell proliferation: MTT detection revealed no significant difference in the proliferation of co-cultured cells and cells cultured by traditional method (P

Apoptosis is an organized suicide program which is evolutionally conserved from yeast to mammals. Research on yeast apoptosis has made rapid progress, though it remained unrecognized until recent years. Initial observations show that yeast can be induced to undergo apoptosis and a number of conserved pro- and antiapoptotic proteins have been identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Yeast has been validated as a model organism to investigate mechanisms of apoptosis. Recently, yeast has also been used as a model to study apoptosis-related disease, such as Huntington's disease and Parkinson′s disease. The feasibility, the advantages and the perspectives of yeast model for apoptosis research are reviewed.

Objective:To evaluate the role of esophagogastric junction contractile index (EGJ-CI) in distinguishing patients with refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (RGERD) from functional heartburn (FH).Methods:From March 2014 to January 2018, 82 patients with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) refractory heartburn and/or regurgitation, who visited the Outpatient Department of Gastroenterology at The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University were enrolled, among them 50 patients with RGERD (RGERD group) and 32 patients with FH (FH group). EGJ-CI of RGERD group and FH group were compared. The sensitivity and specificity of EGJ-CI to distinguish RGERD from FH patients. The correlation between EGJ-CI and high resolution esophageal manometry parameters, baseline impedance level and 24 h impedance-pH monitoring parameters were analyzed. Mann-Whitney U test, receiver operator characteristic curve analysis and Spearman correlation analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results:The EGJ-CI of RGERD group was lower than that of FH group (25.8 mmHg·cm (14.1 mmHg·cm, 35.9 mmHg·cm)(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs. 39.2 mmHg·cm (23.0 mmHg·cm, 60.8 mmHg·cm)), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.833, P=0.005). When the cut-off value of EGJ-CI was 35.8 mmHg·cm, the sensitivity and specificity to distinguish RGERD from FH were 76.0% and 62.5%, respectively; area under the curve was 0.69 (95% CI 0.57 to 0.81). EGJ-CI was positively correlated with lower sphincter resting pressure, integrated relaxation pressure, distal contractile integral, distal esophageal pressure, and mean nocturnal baseline impedance ( r=0.812, 0.631, 0.451, 0.490 and 0.401, all P<0.01). EGJ-CI was negatively correlated with DeMeester score, acid exposure time, total reflux episodes, acid reflux episodes, long reflux episodes and longest reflux time ( r=-0.363, -0.372, -0.346, -0.318, -0.300 and -0.291, all P<0.01). Conclusions:EGJ-CI can help to distinguish patients with FH from RGERD.
