BACKGROUND: Simply used natural materials-prepared scaffolds such as collagen, gelatin and fibrin solve problems of biocompatibility, but its degradation is rapid, and cannot induce new tissues, but collapse is found as cell scaffolds.OBJECTIVE: To explore and determine the property of biological degradable three-dimensional porous scaffolds using silk fibroin-chitosan composite.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The material observational study was performed at the Institute of Bioengineering, Zhejiang Academy of Medical Science from June 2008 to June 2009.MATERIALS: Spring silk cocoon was presented by a silkworm farmer from Huangdunmiao village, Maqiao town, Haining City,Zhejiang Province, China. Chitosan was produced by Shanghai Bo'ao Biological Technology.METHODS: 15 g/L silk fibroin solution was made by degumming, salvation and dialysis. Chitosan was dissolved in 2% acetic acid solution to prepare 25 g/L chitosan-acetic acid solution. Two solutions were mixed to prepare six silk fibroin/chitosan solutions, and mass ratio was 10: 0, 5: 5, 4: 6, 3: 7, 2: 8, 0:10. These solutions were separately sucked in a 24-well plate. Following exhausting gas vacuole at 4 ℃, precooling was performed at -20 ℃ for 12 hours, followed by cryodesiccate for 30 hours. Samples were then hydrated in ethanol, neutralized in NaOH-alcohol for 1 hour, washed and then frozen to dry.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Optical microscope and scanning electron microscope were used to observe pore size and structure of various mass ratio-prepared scaffold. Modified liquid substitution method was utilized to measure porosity of various scaffolds. The degradable rate of various scaffolds was determined at 4 weeks in vitro.RESULTS: Silk fibroin/chitosan of 10: 0 mass ratio-prepared scaffold had rough fluffy pore, was brittle, with high dissolve-loss rates. On the contrary, chitosan-prepared scaffold was hard, without enough elasticity following freeze-dry. The composite scaffold of 5: 5, 4: 6, 3: 7 and 2: 8 following freeze-dry was loose and soft, similar to sponge. With increased chitosan concentration,scaffold hardness increased. There were evenly distributed, detailed eyelets on the scaffold. Under the optical microscope,various pores were irregular; each pore closely connected and linked together; pore size was even, 20-100 μm. With increased chitosan concentration, pore size was gradually reduced. Scaffold porosity determination results displayed that mass ratio of silk fibroin/chitosan 4: 6 group > 5: 5 group > 3: 7 group > 2: 8 group. Compared with 2: 8 group, the porosity was significantly increased in the 5: 5 and 4: 6 groups (P < 0.05). No significant difference was detected in volume expansibility in the silk fibroin/chitosan composite scaffold of various mass ratios (P > 0.05). The degradation was slowest in the 2: 8 group, and fastest in the 5: 5 group at 4 weeks.CONCLUSION: Regarding physical and chemical properties, composite scaffold made by silk fibroin/chitosan showed significant superiority compared with scaffold made by silk fibroin or chitosan alone. Of them, silk fibroin/chitosan mass ratio of 5: 5 and 4: 6 are accorded with the requirement of cartilage tissue engineering.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of glargine(Lantus) versus biphasic insulin aspart 30 (30% free and 70% protamine-bound, BIAsp 30) after continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion treatment (CSII) in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods A 20 week open and random study was performed. All 60 patients with newly diagnosed T2DM were randomly divided into two groups. Group B patients was treated by glargine and group A received treatment with BIAsp 30 administered immediately before dinner and breakfast. Blood glucose at 7 time points, glycosylated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c) and hypoglycemia were observed. Results The postprandial glucose(PPG) was significantly lower in group B than in group A (P<0.05), and the frequency of hypoglycaemic episodes was lower in group B than in group A (P<0.05). The fasting blood glucose(FBG) was not different between two groups (P>0.05). And there was no difference between two groups in HbA1c and other adverse events. Conclusions Glargine is surperior to BIAsp30, not only in controlling the PPG but also in reducing the incidence of hypoglycemia.

OBJECTIVE: To prepare chitosan microspheres encapsulated transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), and to analyze its property. METHODS: The chitosan was dissolved in 2% acetic acid to prepare chitosan microspheres encapsulated TGFβ1 with emulsification cross-linking method, Tween 80 and sodium polyphosphate were served as emulsifying agent and cross-linking agent, respectively. Meanwhile, chitosan microspheres and containing bovine serum albumin chitosan microspheres were prepared as blank control and experimental control groups. The morphology and diameter of 3 kinds of microspheres were observed, and the dispersion and in vitro release of chitosan microspheres encapsulated TGFβ1 were detected, furthermore, the water absorption expansion rate of blank control and experimental control groups were measured. RESULTS: Scanning electron microscopy showed that the microspheres diameter in the blank group was approach 15 μm, with smooth surface and plenty of tiny pores. However, the microspheres in the other 2 groups were distributed uniformly with approximately 1 μm in diameter, the surface was smooth. The chitosan microspheres encapsulated TGFβ1 released fast at begin 12 hours, and then gentled gradually, with 53.5% release ratio within 6 days. The increased mass of microspheres in the blank control and experimental control groups reached a balance after 1 hour, both of which were over 700%,in particular larger in the acid environment. CONCLUSION: Chitosan microspheres encapsulated TGFβ1 prepared by emulsification cross-linking method exhibit high yield and good drug release. The strong water absorption expansion rate of chitosan microspheres requires aperture size, as well as intensity of bone tissue engineered scaffold.
