Objective To establish attenuated S. typhimurium expressing Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) urease subunit B (UreB) and determine whether it could be used as oral vaccine against H.pylori Methods H.pylori (SS1 strain) UreB gene fragment amplified by PCR was cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector PTc 01 after sequencing, then transformed into attenuated S.typhimurium SL3261 to acquire SL3261/PTc 01 UreB. The expression of H.pylori UreB in SL3261 was detected by Western blot. Twelve weeks after oral immunization of mice, antibody responses were evaluated using serum and intestinal fluid by ELISA. In vitro stability of PTc 01 UreB plasmid in S. typhimurium SL3261 was confirmed by growing in Luria Bertani medium to 60 generations. Results The UreB gene fragment amplified by PCR was consistent with the sequence of the H.pylori UreB by sequence analysis. Enzyme digestion revealed that the correct PTc 01 UreB was obtained. Western blot showed that 61kD protein was expressed in SL3261/PTc 01 UreB which could be recognized by anti H.pylori UreB antiserum. Anti UreB IgA antibodies in mouse intestinal fluid and IgG antibodies in serum were determined by ELISA. After 60 generations of continuous culture, the recombinant plasmid PTc 01 UreB was stable in SL3261 and had no obvious toxicity. Conclusion The attenuated Salmonella typhimurium expressing H.pylori UreB may be used as oral vaccine against H.pylori infection.

Objective To histomorphometricly assess changes occurred in the alveolar ridge following different methods of socket preservation and to compare them against natural healing without interventions. Methods The second、 third and fourth mandibular premolars were extracted from six beagles. Six extraction sites in each dog were randomly assigned to three treatments as follows:natural healing (T1), Bio-Oss Collagen (T2) and immediate implant with Bio-Oss (T3). Six month after surgery, the dogs were euthanized and tissue samples were sectioned, fixed and mounted, then were stained with toluidine blue. The histologic studies and morphological measurements were performed by using an optical microscope and a digital image software. Results Reabsorption in the buccal aspect of the alveolar crest of ridge was showed in all groups. With respect to the mean vertical bone loss of the buccal bone plate, T3 is lower than T1 and T2(P<0.001 ), while no significant differences were observed between T1 and T2. With regard to horizontal dimension of the alveolar process , a statistical significance could be found at 3mm and 4mm below the crest of ridge in group T1 and T3(P=0.017, P=0.042), while no statistical differences were found between other groups. Conclusions Both techniques of alveolar ridge preservation were not able to completely preserve the original bone volume after tooth extraction. Immediate implant placement in combination with Bio-Oss seems to have the potential to limit the reabsorption of the alveolar process efficiently , but the bone preserving effect of Bio-Oss Collagen is undesirable.
