Objective:To study the characteristic of mandibular kinesiography(MKG) of the patients wearing linear occlusal denture or anatomic occlusal denture, and its relation with masticatory function. Methods:The characteristic tracks, range and speed of mastication movement of two groups of patients, 33 wearing linear occlusal dentures and 30 wearing anatomic occlusal dentures, were recorded by MKG and statistically compared.Results:Differences of mandibular movement track in linear occlusal denture group from that of the anatomic occlusion group were found as following:①There was no occlusal contact slide on the frontal plane track. The track of protrusion movement on sagittal plane was a straight line.②The maximum speed of closing of linear occlusal dentures was apparently slower than that of anatomic occlusal dentures (P

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare subtype of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs). MCL comprises distinct subtypes with different pathological characteristics and clinical features. However, MCL remains incurable by intensified first-line regimens con-taining cytarabine and involving consolidation with high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. Recently discovered somatic mutations and aberrant intracellular signaling pathways have been demonstrated to play an essential role in the pathogenesis of MCL. The related novel therapeutics, such as Btk inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, and immune modulators, have exhibited promising ther-apeutic effects on untreated or even relapsed/refractory MCL. The development of an efficient combination therapy is urgently need-ed to improve the survival of MCL patients in the future.

This paper reviews the recent advances in recombinant expression and purification of defensins, including the choice of host cells, vectors and expression strategies in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell ex- pression systems, as well as the status of purification processes. By summarizing the problems existed in the production and clinical applications of defensins, the authors here also pointed out the research directions for defensins, and conceived the prospects for its exploitation in the future.
