Objective To investigate the effects of collagen concentration and pre-freezing temperature on structure and properties of the scaffold. Method A series of porous collagen scaffolds were fabricated with different collagen concentration and pre-freezing temperature by freezing-drying. The effective pore sizes and other properties of the porous scaffolds were evaluated and compared with each other. Chondrocytes of rabbit were separated and cultured on these scaffolds to evaluate their biocompatibility. Result The collagen scaffolds had interconnected pore ranging from 50 to 200 ?m in pore size. With increasing the collagen concentration density and tensile strength of the scaffolds increased, while pore size and degradation rate of the scaffolds decreased, as well as become less homogeneous. Reducing pre-freezing temperature resulted in smaller poresize and slower degradation rate of scaffolds. MTT analyses demonstrated that all the scaffolds availed to cell attachment and proliferation, while increasing collagen concentration and decreasing pre-freezing temperature evidently restrained chondrocytes attachment and proliferation. Conclusion The collagen concentration and pre-freezing temperature have crucial influence on the structure and properties of collagen scaffolds. The suitable collagen scaffolds were obtained by adjusting the collagen concentration and pre-freezing temperature. The bigger of the pore size was. The faster cell proliferation was achieved.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of folic acid on transient ischemic attack(TIA)patients with homocysteinaemia (Hcy ). Methods 129 patients of primary TIA with Hcy were divided into two groups randomly. The observation group ( n = 65 )was administered with conventional therapy and folic acid, and the control group ( n=64 ) was only given conventional therapy. The variances of the plasma HCA level three months later were compared, and remission rate of TIA and complete stroke incidence one year later were analyzed between two groups. Results The Hcy incidence rate of TIA patients was up to 41.4%. Three months later, the plasma HCA level of observation group was lower than control group( ( 14.27 ± 6. 13 ) μmol/L vs (24.99 ± 6.87 )μmol/L, t=2.799, P<0. 01 ) ,and much lower than that of the control group post-treatment ( ( 14. 27 ±6. 13)μmol/L vs (24.68 ± 6.89) μmol/L, t = 2.735, P < 0.01 ). One year later, the complete stroke incidence of TIA in observation group was lower than that of the control group(9.8% vs 25.0%, P<0.05 ) ,and complete remission rate was higher than the latter(73.8% vs 50.0%, P < 0. 01 ). Conclusion Folic acid can decrease the plasma HCA level of TIA patients with Hcy efficiently,and improve the prognosis of such patients.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of ischemic postcondioning on cochlea following cochlear ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. METHODSForty two healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, namely, the sham operation control group, the ischemia reperfusion group and ischemic postcondinging group. There were 14 rats in each group. The content of molondialdehyde(MDA) as well as the activity of catalase(CAT)in cochlea was measured by histochemistry. The ultrastructural changes of stria vascularis capillaries of the cochlea in experimental rats were examined by transmission electron microscopy(TEM). RESULTS In the ischemia reperfusion group, the CAT activities were decreased and MDA concentrations were increased significantly compared with those in the control group. However, in the ischemic postcondinging group, the activities of CAT were increased and MDA concentrations were decreased compared with those in the ischemia reperfusion group. Moreover, lesions were detected in the stria vascularis capillaries in all the three groups. The capillaries of stria vascularis were injured severely in ischemia reperfusion group. In the ischemic postcondinging group, the damage of capillary of stria vascularis were reduced significantly compared with that in ischemia reperfusion group, the structures were near normal, and no obvious destruction was observed. COCLUSION Ischemic postconditioning may markedly reduce the excessive generation of oxygen free radical during the process of ischemia-reperfusion injury and might be a potential strategy for its therapy.
