Objective:To investigate the significance of periodontal treatment on the levels of MMP-3 and IFN-γin the serum of patients with oral lichen planus(OLP) and chronic periodontitis(CP) before and after treatment.Methods:60 patients with erosion OLP and CP were divided into 2 groups randomly (n =30).The patients in experimental group received basic periodontal treatment combined with drug therapy,those in control group received drug therapy only.Before and after treatment the periodontal indexes of PD,AL,BI and PLI were measured in the experimental group,the levels of MMP-3 and IFN-γ in serum were tested by ELISA in the 2 groups,the differences of the data between 2 groups were statistically analysed.Results:After treatment the periodontol indexes were decreased in the experimental group(P < 0.05),the serum MMP-3 and IFN-γ levels were lower than those before treatment in 2 groups(P<0.05),and the decline of MMP-3 and IFN-γ in experimental group was more obvious than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Periodontal initial therapy has positive influence on the treatment of OLP and can reduce the level of inflammation.

Objective:To observe the anti inflammatory action of Yangfeihuoxue Decoction and its effects on inflammatory mediums. Methods: The mouse and rat inflammatory models were established by dimethylbenzene, carrageenin and paper strip investing method, and the rat model of pulmonary fibrosis was established by bleomycin. The inhibition of Yangfeihuoxue Decoction on various inflammatory reactions (with swelling rate, swelling degree and height of granuloma as markers) and its effects on levels of histamine (H) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in blood were studied. Results: Yanfeihuoxue Decoction can obviously inhibit acute, subacute and chronic inflammatory disease ( P

Objective:To screen for simulation peptide binding specifically to the first and the second extra-cellular domain of CC chemokine receptor 5(CCR5),and to observe their therapeutic effect on mice with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis(EAE).Methods:Phage display peptide library was used to screen for peptide sequence binding specifically to CCR5;ELISA was used to identify its binding activity and analyze its DNA sequence.The simulation peptide was synthesized and was injected into abdominal cavity of the EAE mice.Spinal cord tissues were obtained and the pathologic changes were studied by H-E staining in EAE control group and simulation peptide group.Results:Twenty phage clones were randomly chosen for identification and ELISA showed that there were eighteen clones had a strong binding activity with CCR5.The positive clones were sequenced and four peptides of high frequency were obtained:STFTTTL,TPIPQLL,SLPLPKP,and QTSSAAL.Mean clinical score of mice in the EAE model group was 3 and that of the simulation peptide group was 1.H-E staining found that the spinal cord tissues in EAE model group had great number of inflammatory cells and evident demyelination changes;the simulation peptide group had less inflammatory cells and no demyelination changes.The four short peptides had an effect of suppressing and delaying the development of EAE,with the average inhibition rate being 43%(P

Objective To reduce the animal component contamination for human embryonic stem cells ( hESCs ) and to simplify hESCs culture process , we develop a new coating substrate which can support the hESCs growth without dif -ferentiation, and is easy to store and use. Methods Mouse embryonic fibroblasts(MEF)were fixed on the surface of plate by methanol.hESCs were cultured on this new substrate and were passaged every 5 to 6 days.After 10 passages, we checked the cell morphology , alkaline phosphatase expression , embryonic specific markers and the differentiation ability in vitro.Results After 10 passages , the hESCs grew well on this new substrate and maintained the typical hESCs morpholo -gy.Alkaline phosphatase staining was positive .Immunofluorescence staining showed that the expressions of Oct 4, SSEA4, Tra-1-60 were positive .The cells formed embryoid body in vitro .Conclusions This methanol-fixed MEF substrate can support the growth of undifferentiated hESCs .The coating material can be produced in large scale and stored for a long time.It provides a new and relatively easy way to amplify hESCs .

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of transpedicular intracorporeal bone graft with allogenic bone in treatment of thoracolumbar osteoporotic compression fracture. Methods A total of 45 patients with thoracolumbar osteoporotic compression fractures were treated with posterior short segment pedicle screw fixation and transpedicular intracorporeal bone graft with allogenic bone. Anteroposte-rior and lateral X-ray photographs were taken before and after operation and at follow up period to determine the ratio of anterior and middle compressed body height to the normal height, the vertebral angle and the superior-inferior endplate angle. The extent of local pain was measured by VAS score. The implant failure was also recorded during follow-up. Results The operative reduction and interbody bone grafting exerted a satisfactory effect on the ratio of anterior and middle body height to the normal height, the vertebral angle and the superior-inferior endplate angle. Local back pain disappeared immediately after surgery in 34 patients out of 38 patients followed up for more than two years. No implant failure was found during follow-up. Conclusions Early treatment with posterior short segment pedicle screw fixation and transpedicular intracorporeal bone graft with allogenic bone can effectively correct local deformity, prevent late vertebral collapse and implant failure and is an ideal treatment method for thoracolumbar osteoporotic compression fracture.

Objectives:To study the pathological behavior and the value of transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1) in predicting prognosis in pulmonary hypertension associated with congenital heart disease. Methods:Lung tissues from 29 patients with congenital heart diseases associated with pulmonary hypertension were examined by surgical biopsy of the lung. All samples were examined for the expression and localization of TGF-β1 by immunohistochemical technique with anti-TGF-β1 antibody. Results:Twenty-six out of 29 showed positive staining of intracellular endotheliocyte TGF-β1(89.65%),16 samples showed extracellular matrix TGF-β1 staining(55.17%).Statistically, there was significant difference between Ⅰ~Ⅱ and Ⅲ~Ⅵ pathological degrees in extracellular matrix(P<0.05). Conclusions: TGF-β1 plays an important biological role in the formation of pulmonary hypertension after congenital heart disease. It is conductive in predicting prognosis.

Objective To discuss the CT manifestations of renal leiomyosarcoma. Methods 9 cases of renal leiomyosarcoma proved by pathology were analyzed retrospectively. Results CT imaging showed homogeneous hyperattenuation in two cases. Heterogeneous in density with necrosis inside was observed on the CT scan in six cases. After contrast medium administration heterogeneous enhancement with cystic and necrotic areas could be revealed in all cases on both CT scan. Conclusion Large renal mass with intra-tumor necrosis,cystic and hemorrhagic change is the characteristic manifestations of renal leiomyosarcoma. But differential diagnosis from renal carcinoma by CT clinical setting is difficult before surgery, and final diagnosis should depend on pathology examination.

Objective To explore the characteristics of cesarean scars pregnancy(CSP)and discuss differ-ent therapeutic methods and clinical outcomes. Methods Clinical data of 96 cases of CSP were collected from Sep-tember 2013 to October 2016 and patients′ clinical features,intra-operative findings,β-HCG,vaginal bleeding duration,hospital stay and cost and effects of different treatments were recorded and analyzed. Results The types of CSP were the determinant of lesion resection ,followed by the tumor size and blood β-HCG levels. The cases of uterine lesion resection and general uterine curettage with UAE had less blood loss than those without UAE. The cases of uterine lesion resection had short hospital stay and those with general uterine curettage had longer vaginal bleeding duration. Conclusion TVCD and MRI have important values in the diagnosis of CSP. During the treatment of CSP,personalized treatment planning,early diagnosis and treatment exert influence on reducing complications.
