Objective:To construct mammalian cell expression vector of human leukocyte antigen C gene and express it in JAR cell and study its functions.Methods:Total cell RNA was extracted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells and the cDNA was amplified by RT PCR;the cDNA fragments were directly inserted into Pbluescript KS(+/-) and the recombinant PBS HLA C was identified by restriction endonuclease digestion and sequencing;then the plasmid of pcDNA HLA C was transfected into JAR cells.Lactate Dehydrogenase(LDH) release assay was employed to detect the cytotoxicities of NK cells proliferated in vitro against HLA C transfectants JAR cells.Results:The recombinant mammalian cell expression vectors of pcDNA3 HLA C was constructed,the sequences of the insert was identical to the published sequences encoding HLA Cw *0602 gene.Several transfected JAR clones were obtained,which expressed HLA Cw *0602 in high level and constitutively.The specific lysis was detected for NK cells stimulated by IL 2 against JAR cells and HLA C transfectants JAR cells.But both cells were resistant to freshly isolated PBL cells.Conclusion:The recombinant mammalian cell expression vectors of pcDNA3 HLA Cw *0602 was successfully constructed,JAR cells resistance to NK lysis could involve an HLA C independent mechanism.

Objective:To investigate the effects of recombinant human interluekin-1 receptor antogonist (rhIL-1Ra) on the cartilage repair in rat temporomandibular joint(TMJ) with osteoarthritis(OA).Methods:Collagenase-Ⅱ was injected into bilateral TMJs of 24 adult rats for the induction of bilateral TMJOA,1 week after injection,5μg rhIL-1Ra(diluted in 0.05 ml normal saline) was injected into each right TMJ and the left joint received the same amount of normal saline injection as the control.12 animals were sacrificed at 2and 4 weeks after the first injection respectively.HE staining,immunnohistochemical method and RT-PCR examination were conducted.Mankins scere was used to evaluate the TMJOA degree.1 adult SD rat was used as healthy control,and sacrificed at 2 weeks of the experiment.Results:The TMJs of both sides showed typical OA-related cartilage degradation 2 week after IL-1Ra treatment,the Mankin~ score of the IL-1Ra treated and control joints was 1.33±0.52 and 2.00±6.63 (P>0.05),4 week after treatment that was 3.00± 0.63 and 6.50 ± 0.84 (P<0.05),respectively.Lower expression of ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 was observed in the treated joints than in the controls (P<0.05).Conclusion:Intra-articular injection of IL-1Ra into TMJ can alleviate the cartilage lesion,the mechanism may lie in the inhibition of the expression of ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5.

Objective:To investigate the effect of silver diamine fluoride(SDF)on the bonding strength between dentine and glass ion-omer cement(GIC).Methods:1 2 extracted sound molars were prepared into dintine samples and distributed into sound dentine group and demineralized dentine group.According to the treatment methods,the samples in each group were respectively divided into 3 sub-groups:A(control group),B[coated with 38% Ag(NH3 )F2 ]and C(SDF treatment with additional lighting-curing)(n =20).Then a hand-mixed conventional glass ionomer cement Fuji IX was placed on the dentine surface.After 24 h,micro tensile bond strength test and scanning electron microscope (SEM)analysis were conducted.Results:The bonding strength of demineralized dentine was higher than that of sound dentine(P <0.01 ).SDF with additional lighting-curing treated dentine showed a higer bonding strength value than only SDF treated dentin(P <0.01 ).Conclusion:SDF may improve the bonding between dentine and GIC.

[Abstrct] Objective The deformity of severe varus knee (varus angulation > 15°) can be treated by many ways in primary total knee arthroplasty , but the efficacy and cost are different. The topic of this study provides a new surgery: autograft (wedge grafts) implant and substitute medial tibial bone defects. Methods From Jan. 2006 to Jan. 2014 , a retrospective study was conducted in the First Affiliated Hospital of BaoTou Mendical College. Out of 687 patients, 721 primary knees were operated. Bone defects in proximal tibia (varus angulation >15° ) were encounted in 16 patients in 21 knees in the pattern of non-inclusive slope bone defects in the mean varus degree of 27°. Their IBM was 31 kg/m2. The average age of patients was (63 ± 5) years. The score of clinical knee society score (KSS) before operation was 18 on average. Among of them, the pain score were 12 points, the average range of motion (ROM) were 12 points. the average funtional score were 20 points. During operation,the slope bone defect of the medial tibial plateau was tailored into wedge-shaped ladder bone defect by osteotomy,and then the defect was filled with the resected tibial plateau autograft in which the thickness and shape were matched completely. The high-intensity cortical part of the autograft was placed in the rim to sustain the tibial prosthesis. Three months after operation ,patients started to walk without the help of crutch. Results The average followup period was 5.3 y , We observed that an average postoperative scores of clinical KSS from 42 points to 88 points with the score of functional KSS from 57 points to 92 points. Fusion was observed by trabeculae crossing from the graft to the tibial metaphysis on plain films at least 6 mouths without collapse, stress fracture, untight and bone ununion. Confirmation of vascularization of the graft was observed in bone scans of nuclide. showing increased uptake in the operated area. Inflammatory makers were normal. Conclusion Autograft (wedge grafts) reconstruction of medial tibial bone defects, is of high rate of healing in implant bones, good restoration of the function and low cost.

ObjectiveTo determine optimal positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) in mechanical ventilation in children with severe asthmatoid disease based on the quasistatic pressure-volume (P-V) curve.MethodsA serf-control study was done on 23 children with severe asthmatoid disease in the pediatric intensive care unit( PICU ).Quasistatic lung P-V curve of these patients was analyzed and the lower inflection point (LIP) from P-V curve was determined.Three different PEEP (0 cm H2O,LIP,LIP+2 cm H2O,1 mm H2O =0.098 kPa) were given to the patients.The effects of PEEP at different levels on gas exchange,hemodynamic and airway pressure were observed.ResultsThe quasistatic LIP were (2.70 ±2.00)cm H2O.When PEEP was increased to the level of LIP + 2 cm H2O,PaO2 / FiO2 and lung compliance improved significantly (P < 0.01 ) and dynamic lung compliance was the highest,peak inspiratory pressure was (22.30 ± 3.00) cm H2O and mean airway pressure was( 14.11 ± 1.01 ) cm H2O,without obvious adverse effects on mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate.There was no difference in PaCO2,when compared PEEP =0 cmH2O to PEEP =LIP + 2 cmH2O.ConclusionThe application of PEEP is safe.LIP + 2 cm H2O from quasistatic P-V curve could be set as the optimal PEEP under which mechanical ventilation has the best efficacy and do not aggravate CO2 retention and abnormality of hemodynamics in children with severe asthmatoid disease.

PurposeTo study the changes of serum nitric oxide(NO)and endothelin(ET)levels by L-Arg therapy in acute hypoxic model. MethodsNADPH diaphorase histochemical staining method, Griess biochemical assay and radioimmune assay were applied to investigate the changes of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) ,NO, cGMP and ET in normal, hypoxic and L-Arg treated hypoxic rats. Resultsduring acute hypoxia, while serum ET rose up significantly, both the levels of serum NO and cGMP and the activity of NOS were significantly lower. After the application of L-Arg therapy, the activity of NOS did not change significantly, but the levels of serum NO and cGMP rose up significantly, and the level of serum ET was to the opposite direction. ConclusionsNO and ET may modulate hypoxic pulmonary hypertension, and acute hypoxia can result in acute hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. L-Arg can reverse the acute hypoxic hypertension.
