Objective To explore induced eruption techniques of the impacted maxillary canine with labial medial inclination. Methods A total of 38 cases with upper impacted canines with labial medial inclination were selected. The impacted canine was connected to the buccal hook of the upper first molar band, moved distantly and uprightly and then drawn to the dental arch after the pressure to the adjacent teeth was removed. Results After average 18 months treatment, 38 patients had good functions. The deeper impacted canines in 5 patients were extracted, and then the dental arch spaces closed. The lateral incisors of root resorption in 4 patients were extracted. The premolars in 19 patients were removed, and 10 patients without extractions. Then the impacted canines were moved into dental arch. There was no aggravated root resorption during the treatment process. Conclusion When the maxillary canine with labial medial inclination is impacted, it is moved distantly and uprightly by elastic line connected to the buccal hook of the maxillary first molar band, and then drawn to the dental arch. The process is smoothly and the neighbor teeth are protected.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of NF-κB and Pglycoprotein(P-gp) in cervical cancer tissue before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NACT). Methods The mRNA and the protein expression levels of NF-κB and P-gp were determined by Real time-PCR and immunohistochemical assay respectively in cancer specimens from 40 cevical cancer patients, which were collected before and after NACT. Results The mRNA expression levels of NF-κB were 50. 340 ± 0. 780 and 67. 595 ± 0. 914 before and after NACT respectively, which showed significant difference statistically ( t = -73. 384 ,P < 0. 01 ). We also found significant difference in the comparison between MDR1 mRNA expression before and after NACT(45. 800 ±0. 636 vs 62. 381 ±0. 743 ,t = -66. 582,P <0. 01 ). The positive rate of NF-κB protein expression before and after NACT were 50% ( 20/40 ), 80% ( 32/40 ) respectively, which showed significant difference statistically( χ2 = 7. 912, P = 0. 005 ). The positive rate of P-gp protein expression after NACT was significantly higher than that before NACT [ 40% ( 16/40 ) vs 70% ( 28/40 ), χ2 = 7. 273, P = 0. 007 ]The mRNA and protein expressions of NF-κB were positively correlated with those of P-gp before and after NACT( r = 0. 408,r = 0. 327 respectively, Ps < 0. 05 ). Conclusion NF-κB and P-gp may play an important role in multi-drug resistance of cervical carcinoma. Chemotherapy drugs in our NACT strategy may induce the activation of NF-κB and multi-drug resistance. Activation of NF-κB may correlate with multi-drug resistance mediated by P-gp.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on the survival rate of and the expression ofinducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the cultured hippocampal neurons.Methods Hippocampal neuronsisolated from new-born SD rats were dispersed and cultured in B27 culture medium for 9-10days.The culturedhippocampal neurons were randomized to one of 4 groups: (1)control group; (2) anoxia group; (3)propofol 4?g?ml~(1) + anoxia group; (4) propofol 12 ?g?ml~(-1)+ anoxia group. For anoxia the cultured hippocampal neurons wereplaced in a tightly closed vessel filled with 95 % N_2~5% CO_2 at 37℃ for 4h,followed by 24 h reoxygenation. Inthe propofol groups (group 3 and 4) propofol was added before anoxia. Survival rates were measured by MTTassay The levels of iNOS expression were determined by immunocytochemistry method.Results In the twopropofol groups (group 3 and 4) propofol attenuated the levels of iNOS expression in the cultured hippocampalneurons and increased the survival rates as compared with anoxia group (group 2). Depofol reduced the levels ofiNOS expression in a concentration-dependent manner.Conclusion Propofol can decrease the level of iNOSexpression in cultured hippocampal neurons induced by anoxia-reoxygenation and increase the survival rate ofhippocampal neuron after anoxia-reoxygenation. Inhibition of iNOS expression may explain partly the mechanism ofcerebral protective effects of propofol.
