Glioma is the most common intracranial malignant tumor,with high incidence and recurrence rate,high fatality rate and the characteristics of low cure rate.Current treatment is given priority to with surgical treatment,auxiliary comprehensive therapy such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy.Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a intermediate product of the cell oxygen metabolism which is a universal phenomenon in aerobic organisms.H2O2 is indispensable at various stages of tumor cell proliferation,infiltration and metastasis.Studies of the production of H2O2 and its function,the mechanism of apoptosis and the relationship between H2O2 and glioma cells can provide corresponding guidances for looking for a target gene for the treatment of gliomas.

BACKGROUND: The osteogenesis effects of concentrated growth factors (CGF) gel have been studied, but little has been reported on CGF liquid.OBJECTIVE: To explore the bone mass changes after CGF is used in the dental implant surgery with guided bone regeneration (GBR) in patients with upper anterior tooth labial bone defect, and to evaluate the effect of CGF liquid combined with Bio-Oss bone meal on bone augmentation.METHODS: Fifty patients with single anterior tooth labial bone defect were enrolled and randomly divided into experimental and control groups (n=25 per group). Patients in both groups underwent dental implant surgery with GBR.CGF liqiud, Bio-Oss bone meal and biological membrane were used in the experimental group, and Bio-Oss bone meal and biological membrane used in the control group.RESULTS AND CONCLSUION: All patients healed well according to the successful criteria. Six months postoperatively,there was no significant difference in the thickness changes of labial bone between two groups (P > 0.05). From 6 months to 12 months after operation, the thickness changes of labial bone in the experimental group was significantly less than that in the control group (P < 0.05). Our findings indicate that CGF liquid combined with Bio-Oss bone meal makes good effect on dental implantation of patients with anterior tooth labial bone defect. CGF liquid also contributes to reduce the labial bone resorption of the implant after functional loading.

[ ABSTRACT] Chemokines and their receptors have been implicated mostly in tumor progression and metastasis. Atypical chemokine receptors ( ACKRs) comprise a group of 7-transmembrane domain proteins structurally similar to G pro-tein-coupled receptors.However, ACKRs do not induce classical signaling via the typical G protein-mediated pathways. ACKRs efficiently internalize the cognate chemokine ligands and act as scavengers instead.ACJRs are composed of at least 3 members of chemokine receptors: Duffy antigen receptor for chemokines ( DARC, also known as ACKR1 ) , D6 ( also known as ACKR2) and ChemoCentryx chemokine receptor (CCX-CKR, also known as ACKR4).These receptors bind to and/or internalize their chemoattractant ligands without activating signal transduction cascades leading to cell migration.In this review, we summarize the recent progress regarding the roles of ACKRs in the progression and metastasis of tumor.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of mild hypothermia on vital signs of the elderly patients with anterior circulation brain infarction (massive hemispheric infarction) and hyperpyrexia.Methods46 elderly patients with massive hemispheric infarction and hyperpyrexia within the first 24 hours after onset were randomly divided into the control group and the hypothermia group with 23 cases in each group. The patients of the hypothermia group were treated with mild hypothermia therapy (33℃～35℃). Those of the control group were treated with routine hypothermal treatment. The temperature and heart rate of all patients were measured after 10 days; the prognosis was evaluated according to mortality and scores of Neurological Deficit Scale (NDS).ResultsFor patients of the hypothermia group, the temperature and heart rate significantly reduced, death rate was significantly lower, the neurological function distinctly improved and prognosis was better than the control group after 10 days treatment ( P<0.05).Conclusion Mild hypothermia is safe and effective to elderly patients with massive hemispheric infarction and hyperpyrexia.

Objective To explore the adjustment effects of suckling nutrition on hypothalamus gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons(GnRH) expression level and adolescence sexual development by establishing different nutrition models for suckling female rats.Methods One-day-old female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to 3 groups.Two suckling rats were fed by one lactation rat in overnutrition group,10 suckling rats were fed by one lactation rat in normal control group,20 suckling rats were fed by one lactation rat in malnutrition group.The animals were weaned at day 21 of age in groups of 5 rats per cage with free access to pelleted food and tap water.To comparatively observe vaginal opening,10 rats in each group were randomly sacrificed when the overnutrition rats showed complete vaginal opening and when the normal control rats showed complete vaginal opening.The amount and percentage of the positive GnRH neurons in hypothalamus arcuate nucleus were detected with immunohistochemistry.The influence of suckling nutrition to female rats adolescence sexual development was assessed by statistical analysis.Results 1.When the overnutrition rats showed complete vaginal opening(at 35-day-old),the amount of positive GnRH neuron in hypothalamus arcuate nucleus was respectively 247?111 in overnutrition group,143?73 in normal control group and 74?70 in malnutrition group.It was showed that the amount of the positive GnRH neuron of hypothalamus arcuate nucleus in overnutrition group was more than the other groups(Pa0.05).3.Overnutrition female rats showed complete vaginal opening at a mean age of (29.60?1.96) days,(39.10?1.66) days in normal control female rats and (41.30?3.33) days in malnutrition female rats.It was proposed that the sexual development of overnutrition rats was earlier than the other groups(Pa

Coronaviruses (CoVs) are generally associated with respiratory and enteric infections and have long been recognized as important pathogens of livestock and companion animals. Mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) is a widely studied model system for Coronavirus replication and pathogenesis. In this study, we created a MHV-A59 temperature sensitive (ts) mutant Wu"-ts18(cd) using the recombinant vaccinia reverse genetics system. Virus replication assay in 17C1-1 cells showed the plaque phenotype and replication characterization of constructed Wu"-ts18(cd) were indistinguishable from the reported ts mutant Wu"-ts 18. Then we cultured the ts mutant Wu"-ts 18(cd) at non-permissive temperature 39.5℃, which "forced" the ts recombinant virus to use second-site mutation to revert from a ts to a non-ts phenotype. Sequence analysis showed most of the revertants had the same single amino acid mutation at Nsp16 position 43. The single amino acid mutation at Nsp16 position 76 or position 130 could also revert the ts mutant Wu"-ts 18 (cd) to non-ts phenotype, an additional independent mutation in Nsp13 position 115 played an important role on plaque size. The results provided us with genetic information on the functional determinants of Nsp16. This allowed us to build up a more reasonable model of CoVs replication-transcription complex.

BACKGROUND:We have found that oriented fibers can guide the alignment of smooth muscle cells in our previous experiments. Thus, we designed the experiment to prepare wel aligned polymeric fibers using electrospinning technology, aiming at guiding the growth of esophageal smooth muscle cells to maintain cellmorphology and biological function. OBJECTIVE:Using electrospinning technology, to fabricate isotropic and directed nano-fibrous scaffolds made of polycaprolacton, gelatin and silk fibroin. METHODS:Polycaprolacton/silk fibroin fibers at a ratio of 4:1 were prepared with proper parameters, including solution concentration, voltage and injection speed, under the self-made spinning system. The polycaprolacton/gelatin sheets with mass ratio of 2:1, 1:1 and 1:2, respectively, were also fabricated under suitable process parameters. Using the rol er col ector instead of the metal plate, polycaprolacton/gelatin nano-fibrous scaffold with good alignment of fibers was manufactured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The isotropic polycaprolacton/silk fibroin scaffold with fiber diameter of (535.9±126.7) nm was prepared under conditions of solution concentration (0.08 g/mL), injection speed (1.6 mL/h) and voltage (22.5 kV), and these fibers were uniform with no beads. The isotropic polycaprolacton/gelatin scaffold with fiber diameter of (257.9±117.8) nm was prepared under conditions of solution concentration (0.10 g/mL), injection speed (0.8 mL/h) and voltage (22.5 kV). Using the rol er col ector instead of the previous metal plate, polycaprolacton/gelatin (w:w, 1:2) nano-fibrous scaffold with good alignment of fibers was manufactured. The process parameters were 3 000 r/min of rol ing speed, 0.8 mL/h of injection speed and 15 kV of voltage.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features of primary renal lymphomas ( PRL) , and to discuss the diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the tumors. Methods Clinical data of 19 patients with PRL from January 2005 to October 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Result The 19 patients in this study, there were 11 males and 8 females and the age ranged from 37 to 85 years old (averaged 55). Patients were mainly presented with unilateral renal masses, with lumbodynia as the main symptom. 13 patients underwent nephrectomy, 6 patients underwent renal biopsy and 17 patients received CHOP or R-CHOP chemotherapy. All of them were diagnosed as non-Hodgkin’ s lymphoma, with 14 cases of diffuse large B cell lym-phoma (DLBCL) (73. 684%, 14/19), 4 cases of B cell small cell lymphoma (21. 053%, 4/19), and 1 cases of T cell lymphoma (5. 263%, 1/19). Follow-up information was available in 15 patients. 12 were still alive and survived for 1~78 months, while the other 3 were dead with 1 case who died of cerebral infarction, and survived for 3~38 months ( averaged 23 months) . Conclusion PRL is an extranodal lymphoma which is rare in kidney and is often misdiagnosed as renal carcinomas due to its nonspecific clinical manifestations. The diagnosis of PRL can be confirmed by histopathological examination, immunohistochemistry and molecular analy-sis. The majority of the lymphomas are B cell lymphomas and most of them are DLBCL. The recommended treatment is surgery com-bined with chemotherapy and the prognosis is associated with the age, clinicopathological characteristics, tumor types and treatment.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of blocking the JAK/STAT signal pathway on the activity of Caspase-3 in the synovial tissue of rheumatoid arthritis rats.MethodsFifty rat models of collageninduced arthritis,which had arthritis index more than 2 were divided into the model group,the low dosage of AG490 group,the medium dosage of AG490 group and high dosage of AG490 group.Inaddition,6 rats were treated as normal control group.Normal saline,AG490 1,5,10 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 were given by intraperitoneal injection.Then the volume claws and pathologic scores of the rat models were recorded and the activity of Caspase-3 in the synovial tissue were compared.The results were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and LSD-t or Tamhane's T2 test.ResultsThe arthritis of the CIA models progressed fast,the volume of the claws and the pathological score of them were significantly higher than those of the control group.At the same time,no Caspase-3 positive express could be detected in the control group,whilethe model group had slightly increased expression.After different dosages of AG490 were applied,the swollen of joints was significantly improved compared with the model group.The histopathological score of the medium AG490 dosage of group and high dosage group(2.7±0.8,1.8+0.9) were remarkably decreased than those of the model group(4.3+1.2),the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.01).In addition,the Caspase-3 expression in the low,medium and high AG490 dosage group ( 1.90±0.15,3.13±0.33,3.56+0.34) was significantly higher than that of the model group(1.48±0.18)(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ).ConclusionBlocking JAK/STAT signal pathway can increase the activity of Caspase-3,reduce the excessive proliferation of synovial tissue,and improve arthritis symptoms.
