BACKGROUND:Pretreatment is a dominant way to increase the histocompatibility of biomaterials,but many pretreatments are not satisfactory due to some reactions,such as calcification,cytotoxic reaction and reducing the tension resistance.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of immunogenicity,scaffold tension and cell growth factor on the non-pretreated scaffold biomaterials,and to prepare the homograft decellularized scaffolds.DESIGN:Contrast observation for the histomorphology.SETTING:The experiments were carried out in the Department of General Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from June 2006 to March 2007.MATERIALS:Wistar rats of SPF grade were adopted in this study.Sodium dodecyl sulfate from BioteehGrade Company(U.S.A.);basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) from Peprotech Company(UK);dynamometer from Suzhou Electrical Element First Factory (China).METHODS:The vena cava inferior from rats were selected as experimental materials,we decellularized the epithelial cells from vein according to the improved Booth's methods with low osmotic Tris buffer containing sodium dodecyl sulplate,and then reserved the extracellular matrix.After fixing,the decellularized scaffold was stained by hematoxylin and eosin,the collagen fibers were observed and photographed by light microscope and scanning electron microscope.Changes of the intensity of the scaffolds were measured before and after decellularization.The deceilularized scaffolds were transplanted subcutaneously at homogeneity rats to observe whether the scaffolds had induced immunological rejection.In combination with bFGF and/or VEGF,the scaffolds were transplanted subcutaneously at homogeneity rats and took out two weeks later,in order to exam the new vessels in the scaffolds by immunohistochemistry.Dynamometer was applied to compare the change of the intensity of the scaffolds before and after transplantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Change of the intensity of the scaffolds after decellularization and transplantation.Formation of new vessels in scaffolds.Local rejection of the scaffold subcutaneously transplanted into rats.RESULTS:The endothelial cells of the vein were completely removed when incubated with Tris buffer containing 0.03% sodium dodecyl sulfate for 48 hours.Results of hematoxylin and eosin staining,light microscope and scanning electron microscope showed that,the main components of extracellular matrix (collagen fiber) were reserved.There was no significant difference in the morphological structure and the intensity of collagenous scaffolds before and after decellalarization (P>0.05).There was no apparent reject reaction at the embedded site,local incisions healed well.New vessels could be observed in the scaffolds two weeks later.There was no significant difference in the intensity of collagenons scaffolds before and after inoculation (P>0.05).CONCLUSION:The low osmotic Tris buffer containing 0.03% sodium dodecyl sulfate is suitable for decellularizing the vein.The homograft collagenous scaffolds exhibit no rejection after transplantation,and the intensity of the scaffolds does not descend.VEGF and bFGF can improve the growth of new vessels in the decellularized scaffolds,and have a synergistic effect.

Objective To summarize our experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of giant colonic lipoma,and enhance awareness of the disease and avoid misdiagnosis.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 5 cases of giant colonic lipoma that were mistaken for colon cancer,and evaluate the possible reasons of misdiagnosis.Results Colonic lipoma is an uncommon benign tumor.Most cases with larger tumor size were misdiagnosed as colon cancer when they suffered from the symptoms of abdominal pain,bloody stool,abdominal mass,even bowel obstruction and intussusception.Barium enema and colonoscopy are important diagnostic means.Contrast enhanced CT scan can provide definitive topographical information identifying a colonic lipoma.Surgical resection was performed in all the 5 cases.Conclusion Giant colonic lipoma with intussusception can mimic a colonic carcinoma leading to misdiagnosis.

Objective To investigate the underlying mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) modulating the inflammatory response during the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), especially the expression of inflammatory cytokines, which will provide new theoretical and experimental basis of MODS in clinic. Methods BMSC of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat (female, 4 weeks) was extracted and cultivated, and the 4th passage were used in experimental study. According to the random number table, 60 female SD rats were divided into three groups (n = 20 per group): sham group, MODS group, BMSC group. MODS model in rats was induced by lipopolysaccaride (LPS, 1 mg/kg) via femoral vein injection. Sham group was injected with the sterile phosphate buffer saline (PBS) in the same volume. BMSC group, in which BMSC infusion was started at 2 hours after 0.5 mL LPS stimulation (1×106/cells) through the tail vein. The survival rate was observed after 72 hours in each group. Abdominal aortic blood was collected for routine blood and biochemical examination at 72 hours after operation. Protein microarray was used to detect the related 34 inflammatory cytokines. Signal ratio was defined as the differentially expressed factors when it was more than 2.0 or less than 0.5. And enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was be applied to validate the significant inflammation factor. Meanwhile, the heart, kidney, intestine tissue was harvested, then their pathological changes were observed by hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining.Results 20, 12, 16 rats lived in sham group, MODS group and BMSC group respectively at 72 hours after operation. Compared with the sham group, the indicators (routine blood, liver and kidney function, myocardial enzyme) were apparently unusual, and the heart, kidney, intestine tissue were injured obviously in the MODS group. After BMSC administration, the organ function was improved and tissue damaged was alleviated significantly. Protein microarray showed that interleukin-4 (IL-4) and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) were significantly different in 34 goal cytokines. The signal ratio change of IL-4 was 0.397, 1.124, 2.826 respectively, and the signal ratio of RAGE was 6.197, 1.552, 0.250, respectively in MODS/sham group, BMSC/sham group, BMSC/MODS group. ELISA validated the result that the expression level of IL-4 decreased significantly (ng/L:3.59±1.21 vs. 29.10±5.78) and the expression level of RAGE increased significantly (ng/L: 1.09±0.04 vs. 0.11±0.03) in MODS group as compared with sham group (bothP < 0.05). Compared with the MODS group, the level of IL-4 was obviously higher than that in BMSC group (ng/L: 9.59±2.21 vs. 3.59±1.21,P < 0.01), and RAGE decreased significantly (ng/L: 0.29±0.07 vs. 1.09±0.04,P < 0.05).Conclusions BMSC administration can regulate the expression of IL-4 and RAGE in the rats subjected to MODS. Moreover, BMSC can promote the restoration of tissue and organ function, thus improve the survival rate. BMSC may be the target in cell therapy for the inflammatory disease.
