  • HISTOMORPHOLOGY AND HISTOCOMPATIBILITY OF ACELLULAR NERVE PREPARED BY DIFFERENT METHODS

    Objective To observe the histomorphology and the biocompatibil ity of acellular nerve prepared by different methods, to provide the experimental evidence for the selection of preparation of acellular nerve scaffold. Methods Forty-eight adult Sprague Dawley rats, male or female, weighing 180-220 g, were selected. The sciatic nerves were obtained from 30 rats and were divided into groups A, B, and C (each group had 20 nerves). The acellular sciatic nerves were prepared by the chemical methods of Dumont (group A), Sondell (group B), and Haase (group C). The effect to remove cells was estimated by the degree of decellularization, degree of demyel ination, and intergrity of nerve fiber tube. The histocompatibil ity was observed by subcutaneous implant test in another 18 rats. Three points were selected along both sides of centre l ine on the back of rats, and the points were randomly divided into groups A1, B1, and C1; the acellular nerve of groups A, B, and C were implanted in the corresponding groups A1, B1, and C1. At 1, 2, and 4 weeks after operation, the rats were sacrificed to perform the general observation and histological observation. Results The histomorphology: apart of cells and the dissolved scraps of axon could be seen in acellular never in the group A, and part of Schwann cell basilar membrane was broken. In group B, the cells in the acellular never were not removed completely, the Schwann cell basilar membrane formed bigger irregular hollows, part of the Schwann cell basilar membrane was broken obviously. But in the group C, the cells were completely removed, the Schwann cell basilar membrane remained intactly. Group C was better than group A and group B in the degree of decellularization, degree of demyel ination, integrity of nerve fiber tube and total score, showing significant differences (P lt; 0.05). The subcutaneous implant test: there were neutrophils and lymphocytes around the acellular nerve in 3 groups at 1 week after implant. A few of lymphocytes were observed around the acellular nerve in 3 groups at 2 weeks after implant. The inflammation was less in groups A1, B1, and C1 at 4 weeks after implant, part of the cells grew into the acellular nerve and arranged along the Schwann cell basilar membrane. The reaction indexes of the inflammational cells in group A1 and group B1 were higher than that in group C1 at 1, 2, and 4 weeks after implant, showing significant differences (P lt; 0.01), but there was no significant difference between group A1 and group B1 (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion The acellular sciatic nerves prepared by Haase method has better acellular effect and the histocompatibil ity than those by the methods of Dumont and Sondell.

  • Experimental study on reconstruction of anterior labrum of shoulder joint by chemical extraction of allogeneic tendon and allogeneic chondrocytes

    ObjectiveTo study the effect of chemical extraction of allogeneic tendon and allogeneic chondrocytes for reconstruction of anterior labrum of shoulder joint in rabbits.MethodsThe body weight of 45 adult New Zealand white rabbits ranged from 2.5 to 3.0 kg. The Achilles tendons of 15 rabbits were taken and the allogeneic tendons were prepared by chemical extraction with antigen inactivation. The extracted tendons were compared with untreated tendons by HE and Masson stainings. Chondrocytes were isolated and cultured by trypsin method and identified by immunohistochemical staining of collagen type Ⅱ. The remaining 30 rabbits were used to prepare the model of anterior labrum defect of shoulder joint. After the allogeneic tendon was transplanted to the damaged labrum, the rabbits was randomly divided into two groups (15 in each group). In group A, the allogeneic chondrocytes were injected into the joint immediately after transplantation, while in group B, no treatment was made. At 4, 6, and 8 weeks after operation, 5 transplanted tendons of each group were taken. After general observation, HE staining was used to observe the number of nuclei, Masson staining was used to observe the expression of collagen fibers in muscle fiber tissues, and AB staining was used to detect the glycosaminoglycan level after transplantation, to evaluate the cell growth in the tissues of the two groups of allogeneic tendon.ResultsBy HE and Masson stainings, the allogeneic tendon antigen prepared by chemical extraction method was inactivated and the fibrous tissue structure was intact; collagen type Ⅱ immunohisto-chemistry staining showed that the cultured cells were chondrocytes. After tendon transplantation, the content of glycosaminoglycan in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (P<0.05). At 6 weeks after operation, HE staining showed that the nuclear in tendon tissue of group A was significantly more than that of group B (t=20.043, P=0.000). Masson staining showed that the number of nuclei in tendon tissue of group A was significantly increased, the muscle fibers and collagen fibers were interlaced, the tissue structure was more compact, and the tendon tissue was mainly blue stained; while the number of nuclei in group B was less, mainly collagen fibers of the original graft.ConclusionThe allogeneic tendon inactivated by chemical extraction can be used to reconstruct the defect of anterior labrum of shoulder joint in rabbits, and the combination of allogeneic chondrocytes can promote the healing of tendon transplantation.
