[The experimental study on optimal cell density and formation time of tissue engineered autologous cartilage].

OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to investigate the suitable cell density and the best formation time of tissue engineered autologous cartilage and to provide theoretical basis and parameters for clinical application. METHODS: The chondrocytes isolated from mini swines' ears were mixed with injectable biocompatible matrix (Pluronic), and the density of cell suspensions were 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 x 10(4)/ml. The chondrocyte-polymer constructs were subcutaneously injected into the abdomen of autologous swine. The specimens were observed grossly and histologically after 6 weeks, and investigated the suitable cell density. Then the chondrocyte-polymer constructs with suitable cell density were transplanted into the abdomen of autologous swine and evaluated grossly and histologically in 1, 3, 6, 9, 15 weeks after transplantation to investigate the best formation time of tissue engineered cartilage. RESULTS: The experiments demonstrated that the tissue engineered autologous cartilage was similar to the natural cartilage on animals with normal immune system in histological characteristics. The optimal chondrocyte density is 50 x 10(6)/ml, and the proper harvest time is the sixth week. CONCLUSION: With tissue engineering skills, we have identified the optimal chondrocyte density and the proper harvest time.

[The clinical analysis of 39 cases of oral mucosal hyperplasia]

This study was reviewing in analysed the clinical,histopathological and treatment features of 39 cases suffered in oral mucosal hyperplasia.It definited the sorts of disease which may be malignant changed and the histopathological grading criteria of hyperplasis.The different treatment methods were administered according to the different grade of the malignant change.The results of the post-treatment observation showed that the drug method only be fit for the cases suffered slight hyperplasia without nuclei differentiation.

[Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma on parotid gland clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical study.].

A clinico-pathologic and immunohistochemical study of 20 cases of primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma on the parotid gland was made.The result showed 45% of the cases originated from B cells,white 40% from T cells,the rest 15% from the small lymphocytes.Immunohistochemical study was made on 11 cases,the result of immunophenotype was in concordance with the histopathologic diagnosis in 10 cases,except in one case which was initially diagnosed as plasmocytoid lymphocytic lymphoma,but the immunmophenotype suggested that it was T cell type of malignant lymphoma(ML).Follow-up data can be collected in 16 cases(80%).Three of the 16 cases(18.75%) died of the tumor within one year,they were diagnosed initially as B cleaved cell,lymphoplastic cell and polymorphic T cell type of ML,each in 1 case.Other cases survived from 15 months to 9.25 years,among them 2 were diagnosed as low-grade ML(both of small lymphocyte type),7 cases as middle-grade ML(5 of B cleaved cell,2 of B mixed type),and 4 cases as high-grade ML (2 of clear T cell,2 of polymorphic T cell type).They were treated by surgical removal and combined western and traditional Chinese medicine,their prognosis was quite good.

[Comparative study on healing process between vascularized and non-vascularized autogenous bone grafts]

This study made a histological comparison (light microscope and transmission electron microscope) between vascularized bone graft (VBG) and non-vascularized bone graft (NVBG) in mandible of dog.The study showed:the healing process of VBG was the same as that of bone fracture.The "creeping substitution" process of NVBG was imbued with the inflammation induced by dead bone.There was no significat difference on the bone union between VBG and NVBG perhaps for the recipient region was better vascularized.

Immune function in transplanted small intestine. Total secretory IgA production and response against cholera toxin.

Secretory IgA is the dominant immunoglobulin produced in the small intestine and one important component of the local defense against dietary and infectious agents present in the gut lumen. The effect of small intestine transplantation on total production of sIgA and on the response to a newly presented antigen, cholera toxin, was determined in a rat segmental heterotopic intestinal transplant model. Lewis x Brown Norway F1 (LBNF1) allografts in Lewis hosts made normal amounts of sIgA, when compared with LBNF1 Thiry-Vella loops or LBNF1 isografts. In contrast, the allografts failed to make a significant specific sIgA response when immunized with cholera toxin at days 0 and 7 following transplantation. This failure was not the result of surgical manipulation, as isografts made normal amounts of specific sIgA directed against cholera toxin. Cyclosporine immunosuppression delayed, but did not prevent, the secretion of specific antibody in isografts. This failure to respond to a new antigen may have important implications for the safety of small bowel transplantation.
