人血浆作为真皮支架对自体皮肤增殖的影响：组织学和免疫组织化学试验●☆

背景：组织工程是一个多学科研究的交叉学科，其目标是使人体损伤的组织和器官再生，通过这种假设，几乎所有的动物组织都可以在实验室进行培养。一般的方法是从需要移植的患者身上提取干细胞，在一定的支持条件下允许其生长、增殖、生产为可替换的组织。另一方面，寻找细胞能够互相联结并形成分层结构的合适的支持条件，如基质或支架等非常必要。目前用于烧烫伤治疗的材料有很多种，如胶原，透明质酸、纤维蛋白和聚乳酸及其共聚物。 目的：讨论以新型的生物材料自体血浆为支架对自体成纤维细胞和角质化细胞生长、扩张、增殖的影响。 设计：建立一种真皮再生的方法，将自体成纤维细胞浸于人血浆基质中，排除各种影响样本安全性和排斥反应的问题，应用同样的方法在新的真皮上获取角质化细胞。 时间及地点：实验于2008年在意大利曼多瓦C. Poma医院动物工厂完成。 材料：人角质化细胞和成纤维细胞取自1例58岁乳房切除患者的皮肤碎片。实验得到C. Poma医院独立伦理委员会批准，患者知情同意。 方法：从自体活组织皮肤样本中分离人角质化细胞和成纤维细胞，置于培养瓶中增殖，随后将自体血浆作为皮肤移植形成构造的支架，免疫和免疫组织化学特征显示与正常皮肤相似。 主要观察指标：将血浆样本用甲醛固定，埋入石蜡，苏木精-伊红染色，用显微镜进行细胞计数。所有样本均经免疫组织化学评估。 结果：在血浆基质上获得了多层规则形状的角质化细胞和成纤维细胞，基底膜的形成说明自体血浆是角质化细胞和成纤维细胞的生长、分化、扩展的良好支架，真皮和表皮细胞联结重建皮肤移植与正常皮肤无异。 结论：血浆作为角质化细胞和成纤维细胞分化、扩展的支架表现出良好的性能，同时实验还特别发现成纤维细胞浓缩血浆可以暂时替代皮肤，也是角质化细胞生长的强有力的支架。此外血浆还具有廉价，易于制备等优点。自体角质化细胞和成纤维细胞及自体血浆的应用，可以避免血种类型的免疫排斥反应。这种治疗方法给有慢性缺损并且需要连续移植的患者带来了希望。 doi:10.3969/j.issn.1673-8225.2009.47.001     

Clinical parameters that predict histology of postchemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node mass in testicular cancer

BACKGROUND: Since the advent of cisplatin-based chemotherapy, the majority of metastatic testicular cancers can be cured by chemotherapy followed by retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND). However, postchemotherapy RPLND confers no therapeutic benefit if the residual mass contains no viable cells. Therefore, to determine which parameters predict a patient's likelihood of having only necrosis in the residual mass, we retrospectively analyzed clinical parameters of patients who underwent postchemotherapy RPLND. METHODS: Data from 27 patients with metastatic testicular cancer were analyzed. The histology of the primary tumor was seminoma in 11 cases and non-seminoma in 16 cases. All of the patients with non-seminoma showed a normalization of tumor markers after chemotherapy. Analysis of clinical parameters included data for the initial histology, pretreatment tumor marker levels, postchemotherapy retroperitoneal mass size, and the histology of the dissected RPLNs. RESULTS: Histological examination of dissected RPLNs showed residual tumor in 27% of seminoma patients and 38% of non-seminoma patients. In seminoma patients, no viable cells were found in all six patients with pretreatment lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels below 7.5 times the upper limit of normal, or in all five of the patients with postchemotherapy RPLNs less than 2.5 cm. In non-seminoma patients, no viable cells were found in nine of 10 patients with pretreatment alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels less than 2700 ng/mL, or in eight of nine patients with residual mass less than 2.5 cm. CONCLUSIONS: Both postchemotherapy RPLN mass size and pretreatment tumor marker levels are possible predictors for necrosis of the residual mass in testicular cancer patients.     

Testicular cancer with tumor thrombus extending to the inferior vena cava successfully removed using veno-venous bypass: A case report

A 33-year-old man with a left testicular tumor was referred to Shinshu University Hospital for advanced therapy. Radiographic imaging revealed multiple metastases in the retroperitoneal lymph nodes (RPLN) and bilateral lungs, as well as tumor thrombus that extended from the left renal vein to the inferior vena cava (IVC) adjacent to the right atrium. After orchidectomy, a diagnosis of embryonal carcinoma was made with a clinical stage of T1N2M1bS3, which has a poor prognosis, based on the International Germ Cell Cancer Collaborative Group consensus. After eight courses of chemotherapy, the patient's tumor markers normalized and the lung metastases disappeared, but the RPLN and tumor thrombus remained. Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection and thrombectomy were performed using a veno-venous bypass (VVB). The pathological examination of the thrombus revealed a mature teratoma. The patient has been disease-free since surgery.

Cancer mortality among northern Georgia carpet and textile workers

Proportionate cancer mortality was analyzed among white male carpet and textile workers in five northwest Georgia counties for the years 1970-1984. Compared with other Georgians, carpet and textile workers had higher proportions of lymphocytic leukemia (proportionate cancer mortality ratio [PCMR] = 2.9; 95% CI = 1.4-5.4]) and testicular cancer (PCMR = 3.2; 95% CI = 1.0-7.5). The excess mortality from lymphocytic leukemia was even higher when the analysis was limited to workers deemed most likely to work directly in production areas (PCMR = 4.2; 95% CI = 1.7-8.7). Further studies are needed to determine if the observed excesses are the result of workplace exposures.     

Andrology: Transrectal electroejaculation in combination with in-vitro fertilization: an effective treatment of anejaculatory infertility after testicular cancer

Treatment of non-seminomatous testicular cancer often leadsto infertility due to anejaculation/retrograde ejaculation andpoor sperm quality. In these men spermatozoa may be obtainedby transrectal electroejaculation (TE), but the optimal strategyfor assisted procreation in these couples is not known. Ouraim was to examine whether TE and conventional in-vitro fertilization(IVF) would be successful. A total of 10 couples, with long-standinginfertility due to anejaculation or retrograde ejaculation aftertreatment for testicular cancer 5–14 years earlier, werereferred to our unit. All men underwent diagnostic TE undergeneral anaesthesia. Spermatozoa were recovered in nine cases.The antegrade fraction was prepared and used for IVF. Spermquality was variable and conventional IVF was considered impossiblein three cases. Altogether six IVF treatment cycles in six couplesresulted in five pregnancies, of which four resulted in a deliveryand one resulted in a spontaneous abortion. One additional pregnancyis ongoing after transfer of cryopreserved embryos. The fertilizationrate was 54% (33/61) and the cleavage rate was 97% (32/33).No complications relating to the procedure have been encountered.     

胎儿脑动脉分叉部中层平滑肌细胞的结构特点

目的探讨人类胚胎脑动脉分叉部中层平滑肌细胞(smoothmusclecell,SMC)的构筑发育过程及特点。方法收集12~28周人类胚胎共17例,胎龄各相差1周,男女不限。对不同胎龄胚胎Willis环周围的脑动脉分叉部行三维组织切片,观察中层SMC的构筑发育过程及其有无先天缺陷。结果胎儿Willis环周各脑动脉中层SMC在1.1~9.0层之间;70.6%的胎儿在脑动脉个别分叉部发现中层SMC缺陷;所取标本的30.3%发现中层SMC缺陷。结论胎儿脑动脉中层SMC随胎龄增长而增多,但28周内不超过9.0层;本研究发现胎儿脑动脉分叉部存在先天性SMC缺陷,这将有助于对脑动脉瘤病因假说的理解和验证。     

Age-related effects of transection of the testicular blood vessels on subsequent testicular development in the pig

Pigs of different ages were studied to assess the effect of age on the development of the testes after intra-abdominal transection of the testicular artery and vein. Transection of the testicular artery and vein at different stages of sexual development had a variable effect on the growth and differentiation of the testes. Transection performed at a young age (2 months) had no effect on the development of the testes (previous study). The animals used in this study were between 3 and 12 months (adult) at the time of surgical intervention. Their testes appeared to be more sensitive to disturbance of the main blood supply. The alternative vascular pedicle (vasal artery) was unable to adapt sufficiently to the increased physiological requirements of the testis during development in more than 50% of the animals. The results obtained from adult males indicate that intra-abdominal transection of the testicular vessels invariably has a deleterious effect on the testis.     

睾丸微石症2例报告及文献复习

目的:认识睾丸微石症(TM)的临床意义和诊断方法。方法:回顾性报告2例TM病例的临床资料,结合文献进行讨论。结果:2例分别因左精索静脉曲张和附睾炎就诊的患者行阴囊超声检查时发现睾丸内散在多发点状强回声,如针尖样,1～2mm,后无声影。分别诊断为局部TM、左精索静脉曲张和TM,左附睾炎。甲胎蛋白、人绒毛膜促性腺激素、乳酸脱氢酶和睾酮等检查均正常。对睾丸微石症未做特殊处置,随访6～8个月,体检和睾丸瘤标未见异常,阴囊超声睾丸图像无特征性改变。结论:TM是一种少见、无明显临床症状、相对稳定的疾病。多因阴囊其他疾病行超声检查时偶然发现,其是否属于癌前病变尚有争议,但是定期随访和阴囊超声检查是必要的。
