  • Publication number: 20240261463
    Abstract: The invention relates to the field of biomedical engineering, and discloses a hemostatic agent for jaw central hemangioma hemorrhage and a preparation method and application thereof. The invention is as follows: chitosan powder and organic weak acid are added into organic alcohol to react, so as to prepare chitosan weak acid salt, and then the chitosan weak acid salt is mixed with carboxymethyl chitosan in proportion to obtain the hemostatic agent of the invention. The hemostatic agent of the invention has good fluidity and plasticity. When applied to the hemostasis of jaw central hemangioma hemorrhage, the hemostatic agent of the invention can quickly reach the point of jaw central hemangioma hemorrhage without any stimulatation and damage to the tissue. In addition, the hemostatic agent of the invention can inhibit the growth of bacteria, eliminate cross infection, and is easy to clean and remove.

  • Patent number: 10639399
    Abstract: Provided is a use of one or more MicroRNA genes selected from miRNAs of Family Let-7, miR-21 or miR-222 in the construction of tissue engineered nerves and in the repair of peripheral nerve defects. An outer and/or internal surface or pores of a tissue engineered nerve graft are coated or adsorbed with polymeric nanomicrospheres carrying a Let-7 family miRNA inhibitor, miR-21, or miR-222, or a mimetic thereof, wherein the polymeric material is composed of biocompatible fibronectin and heparin. The regeneration of peripheral nerves and the construction of tissue engineered nerves are promoted by regulating the expression of MicroRNA genes which can effectively promote the proliferation of primary Schwann cells cultured in vitro and have an anti-apoptotic effect on neuronal cells. In-vivo test proves that bridging of the tissue engineered nerve graft can facilitate the regeneration of peripheral nerves, thus being useful in the treatment of peripheral nerve injury.
