Macrophage-like cells from explant cultures of rat sciatic nerve produce apolipoprotein E

Apolipoprotein E is synthesized and secreted by degenerating peripheral nerve, but the role of resident endoneurial cells in this process is not clear. To exclude the involvement of nonresident cells, we examined the cellular source of endoneurial apolipoprotein E in explant cultures of rat sciatic nerve. The cellular outgrowth from these explant cultures released apolipoprotein E into the culture medium. The cellular outgrowth contained fibroblasts, Schwann cells, and a population of cells with many phenotypic characteristics of macrophages, including the production of apolipoprotein E. No other cell type in the cultures appeared to contribute to this production. These data suggest that apolipoprotein E is produced by resident endoneurial cells in explant cultures and that these cells are macrophages.

目的　建立一种可行的培养和纯化嗅鞘细胞的方法以对其进行研究。方法　利用显微外科技术 ,从新生大鼠脑中取出嗅球的嗅神经组织 ,去除脑膜和微血管 ,消化后细胞以 1× 10 6个细胞 /ml接种在含有 10 %的DMEM/F12 ( 1∶1)培养液中于体外进行培养 ,利用阿糖胞苷Arac和Thy1.1单抗去除成纤维细胞 ,胰酶传代时通过仔细的监测将星形胶质细胞去掉 ,通过纯化获得大量的嗅鞘细胞。结果　嗅鞘细胞较容易培养 ,其增殖速度较快 ,污染的星形胶质细胞和成纤维细胞可有效地被去除 ,显微镜下嗅鞘细胞有卵圆形的胞体和长的、细的突触 ,为双级或多级的细胞 ;透射电镜显示细胞具有锯齿状的核 ,伴有大块染色体和电子密度的胞浆及散在的纤维。形态学和超微结构显示我们获得了较纯的细胞。结论　所建立的培养方法可行 ,适宜从新生大鼠中获得嗅鞘细胞。     

The utilization of traditional Chinese medicine and associated factors in Taiwan in 2002

Background Previous studies have noted that there is a high utilization rate of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) services in Taiwan, China and in western countries, but few studies investigated factors associated with the utilization of TCM in Taiwan. This study analyzes the utilization rate and the factors associated with the utilization of TGM in Taiwan. Methods Data for this study were from the 2002 HPKAP Survey that conducted the face-to-face questionnaire interviews of people aged 15 years and over from October 2002 to March 2003 in Taiwan. This study analyzed the utilization of TCM outpatient services, including admission to the hospital and clinic visits. Results A total of 26 755 participants completed the survey in the six-month period. The data revealed that 10.4% of participants had utilized TCM services in the past one month while 4.2% of participants utilized TCM only (without using Western medicine outpatient services (WM) or Folk therapy (F'I')). The average visits of TCM services per patient was higher among people who had utilized TCM and FT services (2.68 visits) than among those who had utilized WM and FT services (2.15 visits) or TCM services alone (2.15 visits) during the previous one month. Younger people (odds ratio OR= 1.78, 95%C/= 1.47-2.16), women (compared with men), and people with higher education levels (OR = 1.58, 95%CI =1.25-1.98) were more likely to visit TCM than compared groups. People with self-reported poor health status (OR = 2.07,95%CI = 1.76-2.44) and people who exercise regularly (OR = 1.17, 95%CI = 1.07-1.27) had higher ORs to visit TCM service than comparison group.Conclusions There is a high utilization of TCM in Taiwan. Further studies are needed to investigate the related factors and determinants between the utilization of TCM and the utilization of FT in Taiwan.     

应用胶原凝胶构建组织工程化皮肤的研究

目的探讨以胶原凝胶为支架材料构建组织工程化皮肤的可行性。方法体外分离、培养人皮肤表皮细胞和成纤维细胞;利用自制的胶原蛋白制成胶原凝胶作为组织工程支架材料;在成功构建人工真皮的基础上种植表皮细胞,构建复合人工皮肤;采用HE染色与免疫组织化学的方法对复合人工皮肤进行组织学检测。结果HE染色可见,构建的复合人工皮肤具有表皮和真皮双层结构;免疫组织化学染色显示,Ⅳ型胶原、纤维连接蛋白和层粘连蛋白阳性,在形态结构上与正常皮肤相似。结论培养的人表皮细胞和成纤维细胞种植于胶原凝胶支架上,气-液界面培养可构建出具有类似正常皮肤结构的组织工程化皮肤。
