The vaseularization of tissue-engineered bone is the key problem which the development and employment of large sized tissue-engineered bone.The vascular endothelial cell has a great effect on promoting vascularization in tissue-engineered bone.Vascularizations fall into two modes of vaseulogenesis and angiogenesis according to differences in source of endothelial cells.Co-culture of osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells has better result than single culture of each kind of cells.Different ways of improving the vascularization,such as searching for new source of vascular endothelial cell,co-culture and in vivo experiment are investigated to meet the challenge of bone tissue engineering.

BACKGROUND: It has been verified vascular endothelial cells can propagate and differentiate into vessel by planted in the tissue-engineered material in vivo, but it may cause severe trauma when obtain vascular endothelial cells, and it has limited sources. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can differentiate into vascular endothelial cells by combined induction of vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 by experimental observation. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The control cell observation experiment was conducted at the Central Laboratory of First Affiliated Hospital, Liaoning Medical University from November 2006 to June 2007. MATERIALS: An 8-week-old Japanese big ear rabbit was used to isolate BMSCs. VEGF, bFGF and IGF-1 were purchased from Peprotech Company. METHODS: After anaesthesia, bone marrow was extracted from the rabbit. Enough BMSCs were harvested by adherence and trypsinization and randomized into two groups. BMSCs in the induction group were inoculated in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 10 ?g/L VEGF, 1 ?g/L bFGF and 2 ?g/L IGF-1 for 2 weeks. BMSCs in the control group were inoculated in DMEM containing 10% FBS. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphological observation, nitric oxide (NO) content detected, immunohistochemistry staining of Ⅷ factor-related antigen and Weibel-Palade body under a electron microscope in BMSCs. RESULTS: Five days after induction, BMSCs were distributed in cluster, showing round. Non-induced BMSCs were evenly distributed, showing spindle or triangle. Fourteen days after induction, NO content in supernatant was significantly higher in the induction group than in the control group (t=3.75, P

The changes of retinal nuclear DNA content in rats after death was detected and the relationship between degradation of retinal nuclear DNA and postmortem interval (PMI) was analyzed. Ninety healthy adult SD rats, female, weighing 250+/-10 g, were randomly divided into 15 groups. At 20 degrees C, the retinal cells were withdrawn every 2 h within 0 to 28 h after death and stained with Feulgen-Vans. Index of density (ID), integral absorbance (IA) and average absorbance (AA) in retinal nucleus were analyzed by image analysis system. And the obtained data were subjected to linear regression analysis by using SPSS12.0 software. The results showed that in retinal nucleus, AA and IA were gradually declined with the prolongation of PMI, while ID had an increased tendency. Within 28 h after PMI, the regression equations were as follows: Y(AA )=-0.009X(AA )+0.590 (R(2)=0.949), Y(IA )=-0.097X(IA )+18.903 (R(2)=0.968), Y(ID)=0.122X(ID)+2.246 (R(2)=0.951). It was concluded that retinal nuclear DNA after death in rats was degraded gradually and had a good correlation with PMI.

Objective To study the ability of adhesion, proliferation and differentiation of human adipose mesenchymal stern cells,which were cultured in PLGA,and thus to provide a basis for their in vivo implantation.Methods PLA was mixed with PGA in a ratio of 1∶ 1,and PLGA was obtained by insert moldling with organic solvents.In vitro, human adipose mesenchymal stem cells were adhered to PLGA.The attachment and the proliferation of human adipose mesenchymal stem cells in PLGA were analysed by scanning electron microscope,and the morphological change of the cells was investigated before and after induction.Results Human adipose mesenchymal stem cells were able to attach, proliferate and secrete extracellular matrix in porous PLGA (pore size:100～400 pm) with porosity of 85 %, and to differentiate into round lipoblast-like cells under the induction of adipose medium.After 14 days, the particulate of PLGA was overlaid by extracellular matrix .Conclusion Human adipose mesenchymal stem cells have the capacity to adhere to PLGA and proliferate, indicating that PLGA can be used as a carrier for human adipose mesenchymal stem cells in adipose tissue engineering.

The incidence of breast cancer increased rapidly in recent years. Breast cancer has become the most frequent malignant tumor of female especially in the developed regions. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is effective in treating breast cancer, but its theories appear hysteretic, restricting the progress in clinical practice, teaching and research of TCM in the treatment of breast cancer. This article described the significance and urgency to work out the standardization of syndrome differentiation based on stages for breast cancer and put it into practice. It also analyzed the foundations, ideas and approaches of the research of standardization of syndrome differentiation based on stages for breast cancer in light of the changes of spectrum of diseases, the weaknesses of modern medicine in treating breast cancer, and the existed problems in the update clinical practice.

The study on use of traditional Chinese medicine in perioperative management of breast cancer is still in the beginning phase. With the emergence of new understanding about the biological characteristics of breast cancer, the concept of treatment has changed. For instance, the resection extent is tending to be narrower, large doses of radiotherapy may be adopted during the operation, and early use of adjuvant chemotherapy is advocated after the operation. These have bought about changes to the intervention factors in the perioperative period for breast cancer. Some related problems about the participation of traditional Chinese medicine in perioperative management of breast cancer are discussed in this article, so as to make the perioperative management perfect.
