Cartilages of 19 human fetuses were studied by microangiographic and histological methods. Blood vessels were enclosed in a special structure, the cartilage canal which were present in individual cartilages from 2～3 months of the fetus. The cartilage canals developed either from the superficial blood vessels which was gradually embedded in the cartilage as it grew, or blood vessels in the cartilage canal grew and divided themselve progressively and penetrated into the deeper part of the cartilage. In addition to the nutritional supply for the centers of the growth of cartilage, the cartilage canal participates directly in the osteogenesis of the secondary centers of ossification.

Objective To study cell apoptosis and differentiation in postnatal developing spiral ganglion(SG)of rat.Methods By means of transmission electron microscope(TEM),cell apoptosis and the ultrastructure of rat SG neurons were investigated during postnatal days 1,3,5,7,10,14,and 30.Results In P5 and P7,neural cell apoptosis was observed in rat SG neuron.The typical morphological alterations of apoptotic cells included a crescent-shaped band of condensed chromation round the nuclear periphery,apoptotic bodies,and cell shrinkage.The first appeared type 2 neurons with densely packed neurofilaments in the cytoplasm could be recognized with confidence at postnatal day 7.The type 2 neurons at this time showed obvious signs of cell shrinkage.Cell apoptosis disappeared subsequently.In subsequent developing period,the morphological characteristics of type 1 and type 2 neurons became more remarkable and gradually achieved their mature structure.Conclusion The neural cell apoptosis was an important event in the postnatal development of rat SGCS.Cell apoptosis,occurred prior to appearance of the type 2 neurons,may be related to remodeling of the outer hair cell innervation and type 2 neuron differentiation.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of operative treatment for grade Ⅳ pronation-external rotation ankle injury.Methods 60 patients with pronation extorsion type Ⅳ degree of ankle injury were selected as the research subjects.According to the digital table,they were divided into two groups,30 cases in each group.The group A adopted ordinary steel plate,the group B adopted locking plate fixation.The clinical curative effect,postoperative recovery index,AOFAS score and complications were observed.Results The total effective rate of group A was 93.3％,which of group B was 90.0％,the difference was not statistically significant (x2 =0.218,P ＞ 0.05).The swelling subsided time [(24.2 ± 5.0) d vs.(22.9 ± 4.1) d],fracture healing time [(42.4 ± 9.5) d vs.(41.3 ± 9.4) d],postoperative recovery time of walking [(46.6 ± 9.2) d vs.(45.7 ± 9.0) d],AOFAS score [(87.3 ± 2.6) vs.(88.4 ±2.2)] between the two groups had no statistically significant differences(t =1.101,0.451,0.383,1.769,all P ＞0.05).The group A had 1 case in infection,the incidence rate of complications was 3.3％.The group B had no complication.The difference was not statistically significant in the incidence of complications between the two groups (x2 =1.017,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion In the operative treatment for patients with grade Ⅳ pronation-external rotation ankle injury,whether choose ordinary steel plate fixation,or choose the locking plate fixation,the clinical effects of the two methods are both good,and the postoperative healing is fast.

Aim To observe the anti-hepatitis B virus effect of total phenolics acid extracted from Oenanthe Javanica(OJTPA) with in vitro experiments.Methods HePG2 2.2.15 cells were treated with OJTPA,which were diluted into 500 mg?L-1,250 mg?L-1 and 125 mg?L-1 groups.The test set up positive control group(entecavir,3 mg?L-1) and normal control group.The cells of the 4 th,8 th and 4 th day ceasing treatment were collected.The content of HBV-DNA and cccDNA was determined with Quantitative Real-Time PCR method,and the inhibition rates were calculated.Results OJTPA could obviously inhibit HBV-DNA and cccDNA under the dosages used in the experiment,and showed a dose-dependent relationship.The inbhibitory rates reached the peak of 62.3% and 62.7% for HBV-DNA and cccDNA respectively,and a high inhibitory rate was retained within 3 days of OJTPA withdrawal.Conclusion OJTPA has significant inhibition on HBV-DNA and cccDNA and there is no significant rebound phenomenon.

BACKGROUND: Embryonic pancreatic tissue is characterized by its abundance, potent in proliferation & differentiation, and minimal immunological rejection. It is widely considered as potential pancreatic endocrinological stem cells resource for treating diabetes mellitus.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the embryonic mouse pancreatic tissue isolation technique and observe the recipients' blood glucose regulatory effects of the grafted embryonic pancreas in an experimental diabetes mellitus mouse model.METHODS: Pancreatic tissue from C57B1/6 mouse embryos at embryonic days 11.5-16.5 was isolated under the stereomicroscope. C57BL/6 mouse models of streptozocin-induced diabetes mellitus were established and then randomly divided into two groups: transplantation group, in which, five pieces of pancreatic tissue of mice at embryonic 16.5 days were transplanted into mouse renal capsule, and sham-operated control group, in which, 0.05 mL RPMI1640 culture medium was injected into mouse renal capsule. When blood glucose level of the transplantation group mouse was≤ 11.2 mmol/L, the endocrine function of embryonic pancreatic tissue transplanted was detected by IPGTT and IPITT methods and then the transplanted graft was removed for observing the blood glucose relapse.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Nearly intact pancreatic tissue of mice at embryonic days 11.5-16.5 could be isolated through the use of stereomicroscope. Pancreatic tissue morphology and color of mice ≤ embryonic 12.5 days were difficultly distinguished from adjacent tissue and they could only be isolated carefully according to the relationship with adjacent organs. Pancreatic tissue of mice > embryonic 12.5 days exhibited initial endocrinological tissue morphology mimic white cauliflower. Histological and ELISA examinations showed that embryonic pancreatic tissue could express and secrete insulin and the insulin level was gradually increased with developmental time. Embryonic pancreatic tissue could grow beneath the recipient renal capsule. The insulin and glucagon expression in the post-transplantational pancreatic tissue graft was increased compared with prior to transplantation. These results suggest that pancreatic tissue is a potential stem cell resource for treating the diabetes mellitus.

PurposeTo discuss the imaging characteristics and prognostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in primary osteosarcoma.Materials and MethodsThirty patients with osteosarcoma confirmed by pathology were enrolled in the study. The imaging characteristics of preoperative whole body18F-FDG PET/CT were analyzed retrospectively. The max standard uptake values (SUVmax) and CT values of lesions were obtained, and tumor volume was calculated; disease-free survival duration was calculated according to the reoccurrence and metastasis of tumor and death; the SUVmax of different components was compared, and the SUVmax in each position was analyzed in terms of the correlation with the corresponding CT value and factors influencing the prognosis.ResultsCT images showed that 28 patients with primary osteosarcoma had bone destruction, 20 had ground-glass or cotton-like neoplastic bone, 24 with soft tissue mass and 16 with periosteal reaction had increased18F-FDG uptake, and 17 with high-density neopalstic bone had low 18F-FDG uptake. The SUVmax of high-density neoplastic bone was significantly lower than that of bone destruction, low-density neoplastic bone and soft tissue mass (F=5.196, P<0.01). There was a weak negative correlation between the SUVmax of various parts such as bone destruction, low-density neoplastic bone, high-density neoplastic bone and soft tissue mass and the corresponding CT value (r=-0.315,P<0.01). The disease free survival time was (36.9±14.9) months. The Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the disease free survival time was longer in patients with SUVmax≥9 than in those with SUVmax<9 (χ2=0.696,P<0.05). The Cox regression analysis presented that SUVmax had independent prognostic value (Wald=4.213,P<0.05).Conclusion18F-FDG PET/CT has advantages in presenting the anatomical structure changes and metabolic changes in primary osteosarcoma. Combined with semi-quantitative analysis of SUVmax, PET/CT can be helpful in finding out the highest biological activity part from the complex tumor structures. Neoplastic bone with low density/high metabolism suggests high malignancy. The higher the SUVmax, the worse the prognosis is in patients with primary osteosarcoma.

Objective To evaluate the characteristics of abdominal aorta wall motion in different stages of rats atherosclerosis with velocity vector imaging (VVI) technique. Methods Twenty-four healthy SD rats were on high-fat feeding after one week ordinary diet. Abdominal aortic intima-media thickness (IMT), end-systolic blood vessel diameter (Ds), peak systolic velocity (Vs), resistance index (RI), pulsatility index (PI) were measured before and at the end of 8th and 12nd week. Artery wall peak velocity (V_(max)), maximum tangential strain (S_(max)) and the maximum tangential strain rate (SR_(max)) were caculated with VVI. Results Abdominal aortic intima was rough and a small amount of foam cells were found under the light microscope at the end of 8 weeks of high-fat feeding. The values of Smax and SRmax measured at the end of 8th week of high-fat feeding decreased significantly than those of before high-fat feeding (P<0.05). At the end of 12nd week, abdominal aortic intimal was thicker and atherosclerotic plaque appeared somewhere. There were significant differences in artery IMT, Ds, Vs, RI, PI between before and the end of 2nd week of high-fat feeding (P<0.05);the values of V_(max), S_(max), SR_(max) decreased significantly than those of before and at the end of 8th week of high-fat feeding (P<0.05). Conclusion VVI can quantitatively evaluate the vessel wall elasticity in different stage of arteriosclerosis rats.
