Clinical features and micro-invasive reshaping repair of calcified epithelioma in head and face / 中华医学美学美容杂志

Objective Calcified epithelioma is a rare benign tumor in head and face. It is seldomly seen canceration. But it has local invasion behavior. The aim of this study was to explore the methodology in the diagnosis and treatment of calcified epithelioma in head and face, and to improve the accuracy of clinical diagnosis. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out in 26 patients with calcified epithelioma in head and face. Results 53. 8 % patients with calcified epithelioma were less than 13-year-old. The disease was easily misdiagnozed. In this group of patients the misdiagnosis rate reached to 42. 3 %. Btype ultrasonographic diagnosis possessed a high level of concordance with histological diagnosis. There were three major types of calcified epithelioma: type 1, a mass with internal echoic foci; type 2, a hyperechoic mass with high beam; type 3, no calcification in the parenchyma. Piomatricoma was described as a skin tumour histologically composed of shadowcells, basophillic cells, foreign body giant cells and intracellular and stromal calcification. The treatment was excision and no recurrences were found by followup. Conclusions It is important for clinicians to know the clinical features of calcified epithelioma. Imaging studies including ultrasonography would help establish the diagnosis. Surgical excision with clear margins is recommended for this tumor.

Degradation of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate-coated Mg-Zn alloy and bone formation in vivo / 上海交通大学学报（医学版）

Objective To investigate the degradation of dicalcium phosphate dehydrate-coated Mg-Zn alloy in vivo and bone formation. Methods Left femoral condyles were drilled in 72 New Zealand rabbits, and were randomly divided into experiment group (n＝24, implanted with dicalcium phosphate dehydrate-coated Mg-Zn alloy rods), Mg-Zn alloy control group (n＝24, implanted with Mg-Zn alloy rods) and poly-L-lactide acid rod group (n＝24, implanted with poly-L-lactide acid rods). Serum concentrations of Mg~(2+) were examined 1 d pre-operation, and 1 d, 1 week, 2 weeks, 5 weeks and 10 weeks post-operation in experiment group and Mg-Zn alloy control group. Operation sites were examined by X-rays at 3, 6, 12 and 18 weeks post-operation. After X-ray examination at each time point, 6 rabbits in each group were sacrificed, and subjected to histopathological observation of live and kidney tissues by HE staining. Tissues from condyles of femur were observed by HE staining and 2, 4, 6-trinitrophenol rosein staining, and mineral apposition rate of bone was calculated. Results There was no significant difference in the concentrations of serum Mg~(2+) at each time point between Mg-Zn alloy control group and experiment group (P>0.05). X-ray examination revealed gas emerged near the implants 3 weeks after surgery in Mg-Zn alloy control group. However, there was no obvious histological abnormality in liver and kidney tissues. The mineral apposition rate was higher and the degradation of material was lower in experiment group than those in the other two groups. Conclusion Dicalcium phosphate dehydrate-coated Mg-Zn alloy has a favourable biocompatibility, and degrades more slowly in vivo.

Effect of Mg-Zn alloy on integrin beta-1 expression in osteoblasts / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: A novel biodegradable Mg-Zn alloy is designed which the density and the Young's modulus are proximal to human bone. At the same time, it depletes the toxicity of aluminium and rare earth element in commercial magnesium alloys. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of Mg-Zn alloy (Mg-6%Zn) on the integrin βi expression of preosteoblasts MC3T3-E1. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A contrast study was performed at the Central Laboratory of the Sixth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University between March and May 2008. MATERIALS: The Mg-6% Zn was prepared by School of Materials Science and Engineering of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, which the density was 1.82 g/cm~3 and the Young's modulus was nearly 44 GPa. Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) was used as the controls. MC3T3-E1 cells were provided by Chinese Academy of Science Type Culture Collection. METHODS: The cell attachment was observed after cultured with Mg-Zn and PLLA at 2, 24 and 48 hours under scanning electron microscope; the integrin β1 mRNA expression of MC3T3-E1 cultured with Mg-Zn and PLLA was estimated by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR) at days 1, 3, 6, 9,12 and 15 after culture. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The MC3T3-E1 cells attachment on the material surface and the integrin β1 mRNA expression. RESULTS: MC3T3-E1 cell adhesion was better on the Mg-Zn alloy surfaces than on the PLLA surface; The integrin (31 mRNA of osteoblasts on Mg-Zn kept on expressing during experiment and increased with time (P < 0.01), but there was no significantly difference between the two groups at the same time (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: MC3T3-E1 cell adhesion is better on the Mg-Zn alloy surfaces than on the PLLA surface, but it is not mediated by inducing the integrin p1 mRNA expression.
