Wound healing is a complicated biological process, which consists of inflammatory cells, re-pairing cells, extracellular matrix, cell factors, et al. These factors participate in the process of wound heal-ing in great harmony and coordination. The sufferers of diabetes mellitus are vulnerable to skin injury ,which often results in non-healing or healing delay, which became an urgent difficulty and warm spot unsolved in clinic. So far, especially for the last few years, great progress has been made in the mechanism of wound non-healing of Diabetes Mellitus, mainly including signal pathways, angiopoiesis, neuropeptides, advanced glycation end products, cell apoptosis and matrix metaltoproteinases.

Cells and scaffolds are two key elements of tissue engineering,while the viabilitv of cells is mainly depended on the nature of scaffolds.A suitable scaffold should simulate the internal environment as well as possible,which is necessary for the growth of cells.The nanometer structured biomaterials have become more and more popular in the study of tissue engineering due to their ability to perfectly simulate the topography of the microenvironment.This paper summarized the advances in the application of nanometer structured materials in the in vitro cell cultures.The mechanisms of the promoting effect of nano.structured biomaterials on the cell growth and the application of nano-structured materials in liver tissue engineering are discussed.

Acute-on-chronic liver failure is a common form of liver failure characterized by complicated clinical manifestations and high mortality.The pathophysiology of ACLF is still unclear.More efficacious treatments are based mainly on a better understanding of the pathophysiology of ACLF.The advances in the pathophysiology of ACLF have been extremely encouraging in the last few years.In this article,we reviewed the progress of ACLF,its definition,etiology and,pathophysiology.

Hepatocyte is the core raw materials of bioartificial liver support system, primary hepatocyte is lim-ited to application because of short survival and difficult cul-ture in vitro. Porcine hepatocyte which has been used re-cently exist the risks of endogenous retrovirus transmission.With the development of molecular biology, it has been pos-sible that hepatocyte is immortalized recently. Immortalized hepatocytes have greatly significant to drug toxicology, bio-artificial liver support system and tissue engineering of liver.Therefore, we will review the prospects for research and ap-plication of immortalized hepatocytes.

ABSTRACT:Objective To investigate changes in the neutrophils in rats with D-galactosamine (D-GalN)-induced acute liver failure (ALF)and to explore the therapeutic effect of interventions treatment of neutrophils on ALF.Methods Liver function,the expressions of inflammatory cytokines TNF-αand IL-1β,and the changes of neutrophils in the peripheral blood and the liver were observed in rats with D-GalN (intraperitoneal injection)-induced ALF.SD rats were randomly divided into three groups when treated with intervention of neutrophils:control group,ALF group (intraperitoneal injection of D-GalN),and treatment group (intravenous injection of anti-PMN serum via tail vein 24 h before modeling).Biochemical analysis was used to detect serum ALT,AST, TBIL and blood ammonia.Hematology analyzer was applied to analyze the number and percentage of peripheral blood neutrophils.The number of neutrophils in the liver was evaluated by immunohistochemistry.Liver RT-PCR was adopted to detect the mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines TNF-αand IL-1β.Results We found that 6 h after D-GalN injection,serum ALT,AST,TBIL and blood ammonia in ALF rats were significantly increased (P <0.05).The mRNA expression levels of inflammatory cytokines TNF-αand IL-1βin the liver reached the peak at 6 h after modeling (P <0.001),and it was still notably higher at 24 h than before modeling (P <0.001 ).The number and percentage of peripheral blood neutrophils and the number of neutrophils in the liver were all markedly increased 12 h after modeling (P <0.001 ),and the increase continued at least until 24 h (P <0.001 ).24 h after intravenous injection of anti-PMN serum via tail vein,ALF rats had a distinct decrease in the number of peripheral blood neutrophils and neutrophils in the liver 24 h after modeling (P <0.001).Meanwhile,serum ALT,AST,TBIL and blood ammonia were all greatly decreased compared with those in ALF group (P <0.05);a significant reduction of hepatocyte apoptosis was observed.Also,the expressions of TNF-α and IL-1β in the liver were remarkably decreased after treatment (P <0.05).Conclusion Neutrophils accumulated in peripheral blood and liver of rats with D-GalN-induced ALF.The treatment of anti-PMN serum may have a therapeutic effect on liver function and immune microenvironment in ALF rats.

Objective To explore a method for establishing the hamster model of Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD)and the indicators for its evaluation.Methods Clindamycin was administered to hamsters subcutaneously (day 1),and 24 h later infected with C.difficile clinical isolates KH1 (ribotype 027,106-108 CFU/mL)or SH9 (ribotype 001 ,108-1010 CFU/mL)by gavage.Animals were observed for CDAD symptoms such as diarrhea,weight loss and death.At the end of ob-servation period (day 7 or death),the cecum was collected from each animal for histological evaluation of inflammation.Results Following a single dose of 100 mg/kg clindamycin subcutaneously,all the animals challenged with KH1 (108 CFU/mL)devel-oped diarrhea and then died within 5 days.All the hamsters challenged with SH9 (1010 CFU/mL)developed diarrhea as well but only 66.7% died at the end of observation period.Among other groups,only one or none developed diarrhea and then died. The symptoms of hamsters with diarrhea included loose stool,wet tail and weight loss.On histological examination,conges-tion,hemorrhage and neutrophil infiltration of the mucosa were observed in the hamsters died of CDAD.Conclusions We have successfully established a hamster CDAD model that allows for future investigations.
