人脂肪干细胞复合脱细胞软骨基质支架在生物反应器中构建组织工程软骨

目的:观察人脂肪干细胞复合脱细胞软骨基质支架在生物反应器中初步构建组织工程软骨的可行性。方法:实验于2005-04/2006-05在解放军总医院骨科研究所完成。脂肪组织和关节软骨均来自膝关节置换术中切除的组织,并经患者知情同意。关节软骨冻干后经粉碎机粉碎,过筛,选取25～38μm大小的软骨微粒。在样品中先加入2.5g/L胰蛋白酶,37℃消化24h,再加入1%Triton X-100震荡72h。将软骨微粒和蒸馏水按1∶3的比例混合后滴加在模板中,置入冷冻干燥机冻干后行紫外线交联。紫外线照射8h完成。最后经25kGy 60Co辐照灭菌完成支架制备。取膝关节置换术中切除的髌下脂肪垫,酶消法获得脂肪干细胞,扩增后复合于脱细胞软骨基质制成圆柱状三维支架上(细胞密度5×1010L-1),置于生物反应器中进行诱导培养,同时设静态培养组作为对照,3周后观测大体形态和组织学形态变化,同时进行组织化学(包括番红花O,阿利新蓝染色)和Ⅱ型胶原免疫组织化学分析。结果:生物反应器组诱导培养3周苏木精-伊红染色显示支架结构消失,只有中心区域残存少量支架结构;静态培养组支架结构尚存在,有少量基质分泌。番红花O染色显示生物反应器组细胞外有大量蛋白聚糖沉积,阿利新蓝染色表明有软骨特异性蛋白多糖的聚集;而静态培养组只有部分区域染色且淡于生物反应器组。Ⅰ型胶原免疫组化的结果显示,在生物反应器组细胞能够合成大量软骨细胞特异性胶原成分,而静态培养组呈弱阳性。结论:生物反应器培养明显促进了脂肪干细胞的增殖与软骨分化,是体外构建组织工程软骨的良好方法。     

Percutaneous umbilical blood sampling and umbilical vein transfusions. Rapid serologic differentiation of fetal blood from maternal blood

Percutaneous umbilical blood samples (PUBS), obtained under ultrasound guidance, are used for prenatal diagnosis and management of hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) and other fetal disorders. Rapid testing at the time of sampling is vital to distinguish fetal from maternal blood. Blood typing was performed by slide technique in the treatment room during 38 procedures on 25 patients. Anti-I was used to test 50 presumed PUBS; venous I-positive maternal blood was tested in parallel. Because anti-I cannot detect fetal blood after umbilical vein transfusion (UVT) of I-positive donor blood, ABO and Rh blood typing reagents were used to test 29 samples when maternal and fetal or donor blood groups differed. Monoclonal reagents were used for optimal detection of weak AB antigens in fetal blood. Avid, chemically modified anti-D was used for Rh typing. Blood typing showed 27 (34%) of 79 samples to be maternal blood. Fetal blood was obtained in 8 of 10 cases investigated for fetal disorder and in 16 cases of potential HDN (anti-D, 5; -CD, 5; -cE, 2; -K, 2; -c; -E). The absence of HDN (antigen-negative fetus) was determined in 4 cases. UVT afforded live birth of 9 of 10 infants with HDN and was not indicated in two cases.     

Electronic verification of donor-recipient compatibility: the computer crossmatch

Background: This article describes standard operating procedures (SOPs) for a computer crossmatch to replace the immediate-spin crossmatch for ABO incompatibility between patient blood samples submitted for pretransfusion testing and the blood component selected for transfusion. These SOPs were developed following recent changes to the Standards for Blood Banks and Transfusion Services of the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB). Study Design and Methods: SOPs were developed, utilizing currently available software, for pretransfusion testing. The SOP for donor unit processing entails bar code entry of the unit number, component name, and ABO/Rh type; computer entry and interpretation of serologic reactions; warning of discrepancies between bar code-entered blood type and result interpretation; and quarantine of the donor unit in such instances. The SOP for patient sample testing requires bar code entry of specimen accession number, which accesses patient demographics; computer entry and interpretation of ABO/Rh tests; repeat blood typing at the time of crossmatch if only one patient blood type is on record; and warning if there are nonconcordant current and historical blood types. The computer crossmatch SOP requires bar code entry of specimen accession and donor unit numbers; release of group O red cells pending resolution of discrepancies; and immediate-spin crossmatch during computer downtime. Tables validated on- site prompt warning messages and prevent both computer crossmatch and release if blood components of the wrong ABO type are selected. Results: These SOPs meet the requirements of the 15th edition of the AABB Standards. Projected annual time savings at this institution are > 100,000 workload recording units. Further benefits include reduced patient sample volume requirements, less handling of biohazardous material, and elimination of unwanted positive or negative reactions associated with the immediate-spin crossmatch. Release of incompatible blood components when the wrong patient blood type is on record is addressed by requiring the use of group O red cells in the absence of two concordant blood types, one of which must be from a current sample. Conclusion: A combination of existing computer programs and carefully developed SOPs can provide a safe and efficient means of detecting donor-recipient incompatibility without performance of serologic crossmatch.     

Discrepancies in reverse ABO typing due to prozone

Three group O sera manifesting prozone in reverse ABO tests are reported. All were implicated in erroneous blood typing results. One sample failed to react with A1 red cells (RBCs) in immediate-spin (IS) tests, had anti-A and -B titers of 8192 and 2048, respectively, by indirect antiglobulin technique (IAT), and was from a diabetic patient; the parenteral administration of A substance present in porcine insulin is a possible cause of hyperimmunity in this case. The second sample was from the recipient of a single unit of group B fresh-frozen plasma; the serum anti-A and -B titers were 10,240 by IAT, but only weak reactions with A1 and B RBCs were noted in routine IS reverse typing tests; the hyperimmunity in the patient concerned was likely due to crossreacting anti-A, B stimulated by B-active glycoproteins and/or glycolipids in the transfused plasma. The third serum also had anti-A and anti-B IAT titers of 10,240 but did not react with A1 and B RBCs by IS; the hyperimmunity in this case may be related to sepsis from intestinal flora carrying A- and/or B-like antigens. These antibodies lysed A1 and/or B RBCs in tests incubated at room temperature (RT) and strongly agglutinated those RBCs by IS when diluted 10-fold with saline. The absence of the prozone phenomenon in tests with RBCs suspended in diluents containing EDTA is consistent with the previously published mechanism for anti-A prozone: namely, the steric hindrance of agglutination by the C1 component of human complement.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Can the reading for serologic reactivity following 37 degrees C incubation be omitted?

The need to detect antibodies that agglutinate and/or hemolyze red cells (RBCs) directly at 37 degrees C, but do not react in subsequently performed indirect antiglobulin tests (IATs), is of concern relative to the streamlining and automation of antibody detection methods. To determine incidence and significance of such reactions, data from 87,480 tests, which used low-ionic-strength saline, 10-minute incubation at 37 degrees C, and anti-IgG, were analyzed for unexpected antibodies. There were 3590 positive tests, of which 475 showed reactions at 37 degrees C but not in subsequently performed IATs (37 + IAT-). Of these, 196 reactions were due to autoantibodies or other factors usually considered insignificant with respect to the survival of transfused incompatible RBCs, 176 were due to alloantibodies of questionable clinical significance (M, Lea, P1, etc.), and 103 were associated with alloantibodies of potential clinical significance (63 E, 27 K, 5 Jka, 4 D, 3 cE, and 1 C). This latter reaction was seen in 72 patients, with two 37 + IAT-antibodies occurring in each of 3 patients. Of the 75 potentially significant 37 + IAT-antibodies, 57 were seen in patients recently exposed to homologous RBCs, 13 in patients with a history of transfusion and/or pregnancy, and 5 in patients with no known exposure to homologous RBCs. IAT reactivity was observed in subsequent samples with 27 of these antibodies. The predictive value of a 37 + IAT-test was 21.7 percent for a potentially significant antibody. The incidence was 0.12 percent of all tests for unexpected antibodies.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Lung tumor-associated derepressed alloantigen coded for by the K region of the H-2 major histocompatibility complex

Transplacental induction of lung tumors in C3HfeB/HeN (C3Hf) strain mice can be readily achieved with the carcinogen 1-ethyl-1-nitrosourea. Several of these tumors express, as a tumor-associated transplantation antigen (TATA), a normal tissue alloantigen present in strain A and C3H/HeN (C3H) mice. In the present study it was shown that the tumor-associated alloantigen on the C3Hf-derived lung tumor 85 was present in all mice of H-2(a) and H-2(k) haplotypes tested and in CBA (532) strain mice (H-2(ka) haplotype). Studies using congenic-resistant and recombinant strains of mice indicated that the genetic locus controlling the expression of this antigen was either within or to the left of the H-2K region of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Thus the antigen was expressed in B10.A (4R) mice (kkbbbb MHC haplotype) but not in B10 (bbbbbb) or B10.AQR mice (qkkddd). The antigen was expressed in all tissues tested of C3H and A strain mice. It was not detected on any tissue tested including embryo tissue of C3Hf mice or mice of MHC haplotype other than H-2(k) or H-2(a). Because C3Hf strain mice were originally derived from C3H strain mice (H-2(k)), the MHC haplotype of C3Hf mice has been provisionally designated H-2(kb). The finding of a tumor-associated change in the expression of a H-2K region-coded antigen is consistent with the concept that MHC-coded antigens may act as targets for immunological surveillance of tumors.     

应用功能磁共振成像分析脑卒中患者康复治疗前后大脑再塑机制

目的:应用功能磁共振成像观察脑卒中后及康复过程中,在相应脑内运动功能区激活的变化情况,探讨不同运动模式下皮质功能再塑的表现。方法:选取2003-02/10大庆油田总医院康复科住院的皮质下脑梗死患者8例,在发病后1周始进行连续两个月的康复。在康复前、康复1,2个月时运用Brunnstrom分级、Caroll上肢功能量表(0￣100分,评分越高功能越好)对其手功能进行评价,并采用GEMR/iHiSpeed1.5超导磁共振扫描机进行磁共振成像功能激发检查。患者用病手执行简单运动(快速连续的拇指与其他各指的对指动作)、随意运动(用病手摸不同形状的木块),获得脑功能激发图像,观察脑内相关功能区的激活情况。结果:8例受试者均进入结果分析。①康复后所有患者Brunnstrom分级和Caroll上肢功能评分均较康复前有明显改善。②病手简单运动时脑内相关功能区的激活情况:8例受试者7例在损伤后早期手指不能对指,所以没有激活;M1,SMA,PMA脑区和小脑呈现单侧激活-双侧激活-单侧激活的变化过程;随着运动功能恢复,脑内激活数目随时间呈下降趋势,几乎接近正常人脑功能表现。③病手随意运动时脑内相关功能区的激活情况:实验中发现引起的运动相关功能区的激发情况变化多样,规律性较差,但其中5例受试者表现出损伤后激发数目明显减少,许多对运动起决定性支配作用的功能区亦不激活;随着运动功能恢复,激发区数目呈上升趋势,同损伤后简单运动的激活表现。结论:①脑卒中后病手经过康复治疗简单运动恢复较好,康复治疗2个月后脑内运动功能相关区域激活的规律已同正常人。②脑卒中后病手随意运动恢复较困难,康复治疗后不如简单运动恢复好,脑内相关运动功能区激活无明显的规律性。随着运动功能的恢复,脑内相应的运动功能区激活增多。
