OBJECTIVE:To summarize the materials, design, fit-shape and fixation techniques and clinical application of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) prosthesis.DATA SOURCES: An online search was undertaken to identify English articles about TMJ prosthesis published in Pubmed database from January 1998 to December 2006 using the key words of "temporomandibular joint, joint prosthesis".STUDY SELECTION: The collected literatures about TMJ prosthesis were sorted, and those with good pertinence were selected. For the literatures of the same field, those published recently or in authorized journals were selected.DATA EXTRACTION: Totally 69 literatures were collected, 28 were enrolled, and the other 41 were excluded, including 23 were irrelative with the aim of this study, and 18 were repetitive studies.DATA SYNTHESIS: Joint prosthesis is one of the fields that develop the fastest in orthopedic surgery in recent 30 years.TMJ replacement aims to enhance the function of TMJ, alleviate pain, and prevent serious complication. With the rapid developments of material science, tissue engineering, joint biomechanics and other related subjects, TMJ prosthesis has been significantly improved in the materials, design, fit-shape and fixation techniques. People have developed from simply imitating the outline form and mechanical motor of TMJ to pay more attention to its pathological function. It is very significant to trace the new progress in hip prosthesis and knee joint, and apply the good outcomes in the design and manufacture of TMJ prosthesis.CONCLUSION: Prosthetic material plays leading and promoting roles in the development of joint prosthesis, good design,fit-shape and fixation are the necessary conditions for prosthesis to act its role, and it is also necessary to investigate joint biomechanics. TMJ prosthesis should be further investigated, and it has good prospect.

Objective To investigate the effects of exercise on the activity of heme oxygenase-1 ( HO-1 ) and the expression of HO-1 mRNA and the mechanisms involved in the vascular smooth muscle tissue of rats with spontaneous hypertension (SHR). Methods Twelve male Wistar rats with normal blood pressure were used as control group ( group C ).Another 24 male rats with SHR were randomly assigned to one of 2 experimental groups ( 12 rats per group):an SHR group (group S) and an SHR treated group (group T).Rats in group T were treated with 60 minutes of unloaded swimming exercise 6 times a week for 9 weeks.Their blood pressure was measured once a week.After the nine weeks HO-1 activity as well as the expression of HO-1 mRNA in vascular smooth muscle and the concentration of carbon monoxide in plasma were measured. Results After the 9 weeks of training,average systolic blood pressure in group T was close to that of group C.The systolic blood pressure of group S continued to rise,and was significantly higher than that of the other 2 groups at each time point.Average HO-1 activity in group S (637.94 ± 73.637 ) reduced significantly compared with that of group C (786.20 ± 74.698) or with that of group T ( 1036.53 ± 140.63 ).That of group T was significantly higher than that of group C.The average expression of HO1 mRNA in group S (80.85 ± 6.953 ) was significantly higher than that of group C (45.15 ± 7.651 ) and lower than that of group T (90.70 ± 11.20),and the differences were statistically significant at the 5% level of confidence.The average level of expression of HO-1 mRNA in the T group was significantly higher than that of group C.The plasma carbon monoxide content of S group was significantly lower than that of groups C and T. Conclusions Exercise can enhance the activity of HO-1 and the expression of HO-1 mRNA in vascular smooth muscle in rats with SHR to reduce blood pressure.

Objective To evaluate the expression and significance of P-glycoprotein(P-gp) in colorectal carcinoma. Methods The expression patterns of P-gp in 48 patients with colorectal carcinoma were examined by immunohistochemistry SP mothod and were analyzed its correlation to clinic opathological features. Results The expression of P-gp was related to lympy node metastasis. Its expression was not related to sex and age of the patients, localization of the primary tumor, tumorsize, histological grade, localinvasion, distant metastasis and Duke's stage. Conclusion Detecting the expression of P-gp might play an important role in chemotherapy strategy of colorectal carcinoma.

Objective: To develop injectable tissue-engineered bone. Methods: Bone marrow cells isolated from lilac bone of New Zealand rabbits were cultured and induced to differentiate Into osteoblasts. The osteoblasts were mixed with 20 g/L alginate sodium solution to generate osteoblasts/alginate composite with final cellular density of 5 ? 10 6/ml. Calcium chloride was used as cross-linking agent. The osteoblasts/alginate composite was injected into the dorsal subcutaneous tissue of nude mice. The injected material with surounding tissue were examined with X-ray and histopathologic technique. Results: Four and eight weeks after injection, the hard knobbles were easily palpated under the dorsal skin of the animals. On X-ray photograph the knobbles showed calcified tissue image. In histological analysis, new bone formation was observed in the osteoblasts/alginate composite. The osteogenesis was in association with regenerated hematopoietic bone marrow. Conclusion: New bone tissue can be created through the injection of alginate sodium mixed with marrow stromal osteoblasts.
