ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the choice of artificial thigh bone prosthetic material and curative effects of artificial thigh bone prosthesis for treating femur intertrochanteric comminuted fracture of senior patients.METHODS:We retrieved China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) in Chinese (1977/2009) and Medline database in English (1977/2009) with the key words of "femur intertrochanteric fracture;artificial femoral head arthroplasty;elderly patient".Totally 83 articles were retrieved,and 34 articles were included in accordance with inclusion and exclusion criteria.Literatures addressing artificial thigh bone prosthesis,intertrochanteric fracture in elderly patients and artificial femoral head replacement in treatment of femur intertrochanteric fracture were summarized,and curative effect of artificial thigh bone prosthesis for treating intertrochanteric fracture in elderly patients was explored.RESULTS:Artificial thigh bone prosthesis had been widely used in treatment of various femur intertrochantedc fractures.There are many types of artificial thigh bone prosthesis such as metal material,high polymer polyethylene,ceramic material and carbon material,which had obtained significant outcomes.Function of artificial thigh bone prosthesis was improved gradually,and became widely in clinic.Artificial thigh bone prosthesis has presently been an optimal method for treating femur intertrochanteric comminuted fracture in elderly patients.However,this method exist many problems that require to be solved such as high operation risk and many complications.CONCLUSION:There are many materials for choosing artificial thigh bone prosthesis,with various advantages and disadvantages.Presently,complex artificial thigh bone prosthesis is commonly used in clinic.Artificial thigh bone prosthesis is an ideal method to treat femur intertrochanteric comminuted fracture of elderly patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-3 (PAI-3) in normal adult skin. Methods Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR were used to detect the expressions of PAI-3 and uPA. Results mRNA of PAI-3 and uPA were detected. PAI-3 was mainly expressed in stratum basale, stratum spinosum and stratum granulosum, and its expression enhanced in the well differentiated keratinocytes of the epidermis. uPA was located in basal layer. Conclusion PAI-3 exists in normal adult skin and is related with the differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the expression of ?-catenin and cox-2 in the bulge cells of hair follicle and investigate the relationship of their expression on cell proliferation. Methods The hair follicle was prepared from the resected cheek skin of 20 Wistar rats aged 7 days. The bulge cells were resected from the intact hair follicle and cultured in vitro. Immunocytochemical technique (ICC) was applied to detect ?-catenin and cox-2 expression in bulge cells at culture day 3, 5, 8, 13. Results ?-catenin and cox-2 strongly expressed in bulge cells and the expression correlated with the culture days. ?-catenin appeared in both plasma and nucleus, while cox-2 only in nucleus. Conclusion ?-catenin and cox-2 were correlated with bulge cells proliferation, and cox-2 might be the target gene of ?-catenin signaling pathway in nucleus.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the regulating roles of PAI 2 in the differentiation mechanism of the human epidermis. Methods Human skins were take from the early, middle and late human embryos respectively and observed with immunocytochemistry and in situ hybridization techniques. The cell culture and dot blot were also used in the observation of the materials from late embryo. Results 1 PAI 2 exhibits a very high experssion in the development of embryonic period, with the highest level in the middle embryonic phase while the transcripts of PAI 2 still keep a rather high level in the late human embryonic stage. 2 PAI 2 is mainly localized in the superficial, more differentiatied layers of the epidermis.3 PAI 2 is localizated in peripheral cytoplasm of the vitro or vivo keratinocyte.Conclusion PAI 2 is involved in the regulation of the keratinocyte differentiation.
