    2018, 14 (5):  241-244.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1673-0364.2018.05.001
    Abstract ( 349 )  
    Objective To investigate the feasibility of multiple-layers reconstruction of urethral tissue with 3D bioprinting technology. Methods Mixed blend of 7% GelMA and 2% Alginate with green and read microbeads respectively, or 2×106cells/mL urethral epidermal cells and smooth muscle cells, printed on the system of co-axial multiple channel bioprinting platform. The speed of inner and outer layer printing was 10-20 μL/min and CaCl2extruding was 80-200 μL/min. Then the printed structure was observed under microscopy, and the printed hollow tissues loaded urethral cells were tested with live/dead and F-actin staining from day 0 to day 7. The printed hollow structure was perfused with color medium after cultured 24 hours in vitro. Results With hydrogels mixed with microbeads, two distinct sublayers of printed hollow structure can be observed clearly under microscopy. The diameter of inner and outer layer was (663.66±51.74) μm and (976.84±63.43) μm respectively, and wall length of inner and outer layer was (62.06±10.45) μm and (93.78±10.25) μm respectively. The viability of printed urethral tissue was 84.52% and 86.26% at day 0 and day 7. F-actin expression were observed on day 7 after immunofluorescent staining and showed the spread cells. During the process of perfusion of hollow tissue, colored medium can circulate the channel smoothly without color exuding. Conclusion Urethral hollow structure can be printed with combined hydrogel by the method of co-axial multiple channel bioprinting system. And the urethral cells can survive for long term after printing.

    2018, 14 (5):  245-249.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1673-0364.2018.05.002
    Abstract ( 346 )  
    Objective To explore the feasibility of constructing tissue engineered cartilage by using gelatin/curcumin nanofibres membranes as scaffold in subcutaneous model. Methods The seed cells were obtained from rabbit ear cartilage. After in vitro culture and expansion, cartilage was constructed with gelatin nanofibers membrane (control group) and gelatin/curcumin nanofibers membrane (experimental group) as scaffolds. Gross observation was performed after the material was implanted into the back of the BALB/c nude mice; SEM observation of the material and cell-material complex were all performed; The cell proliferation rate of the cell-material complex was measured; The cell-material complex cultured in vitro for 1 week was implanted into the back of BALB/c nude mice. Histological examination was performed 3 and 12 weeks after implantation, and cartilage formation at different time points was compared. Results Gross observation showed that compared with the control group, the vascularization of the tissue around in the experimental group was significantly inhibited; The SEM observation showed that the chondrocyts in the two groups adhered well; Growth curve of the chondrocyts showed that curcumin had no significant effect on cell growth; Histological observation showed that the cell-material complex of both groups had cartilage lacuna formation after implanted for 3 and 12 weeks, but compared with the control group, the material in experimental group showed obvious absorption, and the cartilage matrix was thicker and more homogenization. Conclusion Gelatin/curcumin membranes could be successfully used as scaffold in the construction of tissue engineering cartilage in subcutaneous animal model. It is a kind of scaffold material with potential application prospect.

    2018, 14 (5):  253-257.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1673-0364.2018.05.004
    Abstract ( 399 )  
    Objective To construct a novel core-shell-structured chitosan particles with sustained-release FGF2 plasmids (the core was pFGF2-EGFP-loaded TACS and the shell was HBC), and to explore the effect of the particles on the survival rate of adipose tissue transplantation. Methods The core-structured particles (TACS-pFGF2-EGFP) and core-shell-structured particles (HBC@TACS-pFGF2-EGFP) were prepared to explore the release regulation of pFGF2-EGFP of these particles. The expression of FGF2 protein was detected by Western Blot after in vitro transfection of 293T cells. Eighteen New Zealand white rabbits were used for adipose tissue transplantation experiment. The left ears were treated as experimental group and the right ears were treated as control group. The ears in experimental group were implanted with 2 mL fat particles and HBC@TACS-pFGF2 particles while the ears in control group were implanted with 2 mL fat particles and HBC@TACS-empty plasmids. The new adipose tissues were harvested to analyze the survival rate at 4, 8, 12 weeks after transplantation. Besides, the biological characteristics of grafts and the density of new blood vessels were observed at the same time by HE staining and immunohistochemistry. Results The FGF2 protein can be slowly released by HBC@TACS-pFGF2 particles in vitro and be successfully expressed after transfection of 293T cells. At different time point, new fat tissues were observed. The volume of adipose tissues were gradually reduced after transplantation. The survival rates of adipose tissues in the experimental group were significant higher than in control group at any time point (P<0.05). HE staining showed the new fat cells arranged more regularly in experimental group than the cells in control group. Immunohistochemistry staining showed the density of new blood vessels in adipose tissue in experimental group was higher than that in control group (P<0.05). Conclusion HBC@TACS-pFGF2-EGFP particles can improve the survival rate of fat transplantation.

    2018, 14 (5):  282-284.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1673-0364.2018.05.014
    Abstract ( 377 )  
    Objective To observe the effectiveness and safety of conscious sedation with dexmedetomidine and sufentanil in liposuction surgery. Methods From January 2018 to June 2018, 40 female patients (ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ) scheduled for liposuction surgery were included. The patients were infused l μg/kg intravenously within 10minutes as loading dose followed by a continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine 0.4μg/Kg·h-1. Sufentanil 0.2 μg/Kg were administrated intravenously before infusion of tumescent solution. Sufentanil 5-10 μg was given increased because of movement caused by surgical stimulation. The drug infusion was discontinued at 5 to 10 min before the end of the surgical procedure. Hemodynamics, respiratory changes, Ramsay Sedation Score (RSS) were observed and registered at the time point of before sedation, 15, 30, 60 min after sedation and the end of the surgery.

Results All patients were satisfied with the conscious sedation (Ramsay sedation level: 2~4). The induction of sedation produced a significant decrease in HR (P<0.05). The SBP, DBP were significantly decreased 15 minutes after sedation, compared with pre-sedation (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in SBP and DBP at other time points after sedation compared with pre-sedation (P>0.05). There were no significant changes in RR and SpO2after sedation (P>0.05). Hypoxia and bradycardia were observed in 2 patients respectively. No serious adverse reactions occurred. The anesthesia duration and consumption of dexmedetomidine, sufentanil were (168±58) min, (126±36) μg, (15±5) μg respectively. Conclusion Conscious sedation with dexmedetomidine and sufentanil is an effective and safety anesthetic technique in patients for liposuction surgery.

    2018, 14 (5):  291-294.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1673-0364.2018.05.017
    Abstract ( 518 )  
    Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma. Its high recurrence rate is a clinical challenge. The complete resection of the sarcoma with the maximum reservation of normal tissue is the key to the treatment. The three-dimensional pre-operative reconstruction technique has been applied into many kinds of tumor. It contributes greatly to operative planning and precising resection of tumor. In this paper, the treatment progress of DFSP and the application prospects of 3D pre-operative reconstruction technique in DFSP were discussed, providing a new idea for the precise treatment of DFSP.

    ZHANG Peiqi,ZHOU Shuangbai,LI Qingfeng
    2018, 14 (5):  295-297.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1673-0364.2018.05.018
    Abstract ( 317 )  
    Since the use of liposuction in 1980s, adipose tissue has become a common material on soft tissue repair. However, multiple fat transplantations are still necessary for clinical use. Hence the proper methods of the adipose tissue preservation after a single liposuction enable the reinjections on proper time, which can eliminate the repeated liposuction and reduce the pain of patients. Thus it is critical to preserve the adipose tissue and improve the retention after fat transplantation. In this paper, the advances of the long-term preservation of adipose tissue were reviewed.
