Objective: To develop a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-based instrument which may be used to measure bite force in natural teeth as well as in denture. Methods: The PVDF film was used as transducer. Electricity amplifier, lowpass filter, secondary magnifier in metrical circuit, and collection with disposal system were employed to produce the instrument for bite force measurement. The demarcating system was MTS-858. The instrument was used to measure the dynamic force in laterotrusion in 9 volunteers with Angle I occlusion. Results: The instrument was produced.By the used of the instrument the peak value of bite force (N) in the 9 subjects was 277.3?78.4 on the main functional side (MFS) and 258.7?83.3 on the subfunctional side (SFS).The time(ms) needed in the four phases on MFS was 65.6?7.3,354.4?66.1,116.3?25.0 and 226.9?35.8;that on SFS 67.5?6.6,394.4?65.3,141.9?25.6 and 167.5?41.9,respectively.Conclusion: The new system is steady and sensitive for bite force measurement.

Objective In our previous work, the prevalence of anti-endothelial cell antibodies(AECA) in patients with systemic vasculitis and other autoimmune diseases was analyzed. AECA against a 47 000 endothelial cell antigen was found in patients of a variety of systemic vasculitis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It was suggested to be α-enolase by the combination of immunoblotting and proteomics methods. The aim of this work is to demonstrate that α-enolase is one of the targets of AECA, and to detect the prevalence of anti-α-enolase antibody in sera of patients with autoimmune disorders including systemic vasculitis. Methods The CDS of human Enol gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), with template of human placenta λzap express Cdna library. The product was then recombined with expression vector. After expression and purification from E.coli, the recombinant protein was analyzed by mass spee-trometry. The prevalence of anti-α-enolase antibody in patients with autoimmune disorders including systemic vasculitis was tested by Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The CDS of human Enol gene was subcloned to the expression vector. Recombinant human α-enolase was expressed and purified in E.coli. The recombinant protein was demonstrated to be his-tagged human a-enolase by mass spectrometry. Results of Dot-Blot revealed that the prevalence of anti-α-enolase antibody was 76.7% in systemic vasculitis [including 74.0% in Behcet's disease (BD), 81.5% in Takayasu artefitis (TA), 62.5% in Wegener's granulomatosus (WG), 92.3% in microscopic polyangitis (MPA) and 80.0% in Churg-Stranss syndrome (CSS)], 78.3% in SLE, 63.6% in Sjogren's syndrome (SS) and 78.9% in rheumatoid arthritis(RA). No positive signals were detected in sera of normal controls or patients with polymyositis/ dermatomyositis (PM/DM). There was no statistical significance among positive rates of anti-α-enolase antibody in systemic vasculitis, SLE, SS or RA patients. The prevalence of positive signals at the most extensive level (+++～++++) was 51.7% in patients with systemic vasculitis, 33.3% in SLE, 42.9% in SS and 20.0% in RA. There was statistical significant difference between RA and systemic vasculitis. Conclusion The identification of human α-enolase as one of the targets of AECA and its prevalence in a variety of autoimmune disorders will shed some light on the understanding of the pathogenesis of vascular injury in autoimmune diseases.

Objective To study expression and activation of p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) in vascular endothelial cells dysfunction in preeclampsia. Methods From Sept. 2009 to Mar.2010, 54 pregnant women underwent deliveries in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were enrolled in this study, including 20 patients in mild preeclampsia group, 16 patients in severe preeclampsia group and 18 women with term cesarean section without perinatal complications as control group. Placental endothelial cells were labeled by CD34 to assay microvessel density (MVD) of each group. Immunohistochemical SP and western blot were used to detect localization and expression of p-p38 MAPK protein, respectively. The levels of sera soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1)and soluble endoglin(sEng) were measured by ELISA. Results ①The MVD of placenta were 103 ± 3 in control group, 81 ±5 in mild preeclampsia group and 63±4 in severe group, respectively, which showed statistical difference among each group (P＜0.05).②The expression of p38 MAPK protein were 0.84±0.05 in control group,0.90±0.14 in mild group and 0. 86 ±0.18 in severe group, which did not reach remarkable difference among each group (P＞0.05). The expression of p-p38 MAPK protein were 0.13±0.05 in control group,0.59±0.12 in mild group and 1.16±0.18 in severe group, which show statistical difference among each group(P＜0.05).(3) The localization of p-p38 was in trophoblast, endothelial cells and a few (5.2±0.3)and(10.9±0.4)μg/L in control group,(12.5±1.2) and (20.4±5.3)μg/L in mild group and (19.3±3.0) and (29. 5 ±3.7) μg/L in severe group. When drawing paired comparison in those p-p38 MAPK protein levels and the concentrations of serum sFlt-1, sEng in preeclampsia groups (r=0.68,P＜0.05;r=0.87,P＜0.05). Conclusions The remarkable activation of the p38 MAPK in the placenta of patients with preeclampsia induced the increased levels of sFlt-1 and sEng in maternal serum, which confer the injury of vascular endothelial cells that caused the significant decline of MVD in placentas. p38 MAPK signaling might be one of the key pathways in vascular endothelial cell dysfunction in preeclampsia.

Objective To establish burn-induced esophageal lesion model by adding NaOH with different concentrations in rabbits, and investigate the effect of modified sijunzi decoction on the p53 and Bcl-2.Methods After injection with different concentrations of NaOH, esophagus was dissected and observed anatomically.Rabbits were given a gavage of modified Sijunzi decoction daily for 20 days, and then were injected with NaOH.Esophageal epithelium isolated from each group was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.p53 and Bcl-2 protein and mRNA expression was measured with western blot and qRT-PCR, respectively.Results The degree of corrosion of esophageal epithelium was positively correlated with the concentration of NaOH.p53 protein and mRNA levels were increased after NaOH challenge; this increase was inhibited by treatment with modified Sijunzi decoction.Additionally, NaOH decreased Bcl-2 protein and mRNA, which was attenuated by modified Sijunzi decoction.Conclusion Modified sijunzi decoction can relieve the esophageal alkali burning in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that modified Sijunzi decoction may be a useful strategy to treat chemical injuries in esophageal tissue.
