BACKGROUND:The poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyoctanoate) osteochondral scaffold which has been constructed in previous experiments has good biocompatibility and biodegradability and generates non-toxic degradation products.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the vascularization of rabbit renal microvascular endothelial cels co-cultured with poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyoctanoate) osteochondral scaffold.
METHODS:The poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyoctanoate) osteochondral scaffold having a three-layer structure (layer of bone/bone and cartilage interface layer/layer of cartilage) was prepared by solvent casting/particle leaching method. The renal microvascular endothelial cels at passage 3 were seeded onto the scaffold of bone layer. The proliferation of the renal microvascular endothelial cels growing on the scaffolds was examined using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide method, the growth of cels in the scaffold was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining under electron microscope after 10 days.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The integrated osteochondral scaffold had a clear appearance of three-layer structure, which had closed connections between the three layers. Porous bone layer was visible as wel as uniform and interlinked pores, and the porosity was 78%. The renal microvascular endothelial cels seeded onto the scaffold proliferated wel and presented a three-dimensional growth after 10 days of co-culture, but there were no cels on the interface layer. Cels which adhered and grew between the pores of the bone layer were observed through hematoxylin-eosin staining. Cels showed a luminal-like structure growing on the scaffold with the porous structure, but they did not grow into the interface layer of bone and cartilage.

Background Vitretomy and lenstomy with silicone oil tamponade is an effective method for complicated vitreous retinopathy.The severe anisometropia after silicone retention is usually treated by two-point transscleral suture fixation for posterior chamber intraocular lens(IOL)implantation.In order to reduce the number and difficulty and complication of the operation,the surgical method should be improved.Objective The goal of this study was to observe the resuh of silicone oil removal combined with four-point trans-scleral suture fixation of posterior chamber IOL after vitrectomy.Methods A retrospective case-observational study design was adopted.Twenty eyes with silicone oil tamponade from 20 patients without lens and posterior capsule after vitrectomy were included in this study.Silicone oil removal with four-point trans-scleral suture fixation of posterior chamber IOL was performed.The anterior ocular inflammatory response,intraocular pressure,uncorrected and corrected acuities before and after operation,corneal endothelial cell counting and postoperative complications were observed and analyzed.Written informed consent was obtained from all patients prior to the operation.Results All of the operative eyes in this study showed improvement of visual acuity after operation.Of the 20 eyes,a visual acuity of ≥0.8 was seen in 2 eyes,0.6-0.7 in 6 eyes,0.3-0.5 in 8 eyes and 0.05-0.2 in 4 eyes 3 months after the removal of silicone oil.The uncorrected acuity postoperation was significantly improved in comparison with preoperation(H=10.147,P＜0.01),but no significant difference was found in the corrected acuity between preoperation and postoperation(X =2.089,P＜ 0.01).The number of the corneal endothelial cells was(2064±329)cells/mm2 before operation,and that after operation was(1987±269)cells/mm2,showing an insignificant change between them(t =1.660,P ＞ 0.05).No abnormality of IOL position was found in all 20 operated eyes.There was not serious postoperative complication in all 20 patients.Conclusions The combination of silicon oil extraction with four-point transscleral suture fixation IOL is effective in eyes without posterior capsule or lens after vitrectomy.It can reduce the operation time and improve the postoperative acuity and the quality of life of patients.

Visual perceptual learning refers to the special improvement of perceptual performance benefit from repetitive training with a visual task.A typical time course of visual perceptual learning presents an initial rapid improvement,and then gradually processes like an asymptote in gain.During the process of perceptual learning,the influence of critical amount and perceptual learning rules on learning effect,memory consolidation and interference,and the role of sleep on preventing interference and promoting consolidation in perceptual learning,all get involved.This article reviewed the aforesaid content and then elaborated some strategies in application of visual perceptual learning in the treatment of amblyopia.

Objective To investigate the effect of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC) on monocyte chemotactic protein1 (MCP-1) in rejection of cardiac allograft and its mechanisms.Methods Heterotopic cervical heart transplantation was performed by cuff-technique.The SD rat recipients were randomly divided into 3 groups:AR group (Acute rejection,n =12),both the recipients and donors were without any treatment.CsA group(n =12),the recipients were treated with 10 mg/kg cyclosporine A after transplantation.PDTC group(n =12),the recipients were treated with 100 mg/kg PDTC after transplantation.All the cardiac allografts were harvested at different time post transplantation according to requirements.We studied allograft myocardial fibrosis wih the help of Masson stain,immuno-histo-chemistry and western blot also were used to detect the expression of MCP-1.Results The survival time of the cardiac allografts was significantly longer in PDTC group than in acute rejection group and CsA group(P ＜ 0.01),and myocardial fibrosis of cardiac allografts in PDTC group was significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.01).The IOD in PDTC group was markedly lower than in CsA group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion As the inhibitor of NF-κB,PDTC can significantly relieve rejection of cardiac allograft by inhibiting the expression of MCp-1.
