BACKGROUND: Hepatic fibrosis is a reversible disease, interfering in course of disease promptly can decrease hepatic cirrhosis and fatal complication. Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is a key factor in pathogenesy of hepatic fibrosis.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of Shugan granule on HSCs activation and trans-membrane signal transduction stimulated by transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) in rats, and to explore the anti-fibrosis mechanism.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Controlled observational trials based on cytology were performed in the Central Laboratory of Molecules, Luzhou Medical College between June 2008 and February 2009. MATERIALS: HSC-T6 cell line was purchased from Institute of Liver Diseases, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, its phenotype was the activated hepatic stellate cells. Shugan granule was offered by Drug Institute, Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical College at a Batch No. 20071120.METHODS: The influence of different concentrations (0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08 g/L) of Shugan granule on HSCs proliferation was determined by MTT. 0.01 g/L was defined as the dose of Shugan granule contributing no influence on cell proliferation. HSCs were cultured in a culture plate and then divided into 4 groups: control group without management, TGF-β1 group with 5 μg/L TGF-β1 solution in culture medium, Shugan granule group with 0.01 g/L Shugan granule in a culture medium, and TGF-β1 + Shugan granule group with 5 μg/L TGF-β1 solution and 0.01 g/L Shugan granule in culture medium. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Morphological features of HSCs were detected by microscopic. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of Smad3 and Smad7 in HSCs. RT-PCR was applied to observe the HSCs activation and trans-membrane signal transduction. RESULTS: ①The cell morphology of TGF-β1 group was similar with that in the control group, and the extension was more obvious. In the TGF-β1 + Shugan granule group, the cell morphology was close to that in TGF-β1 group. There was no karyopyknosis or apoptosis observed in each group. ②Immunohistochemical method showed the expression of Smad3 and Smad7 in control groups were increased. TGF-β1 could slightly increase the expression of Smad3 and Smad7 (P < 0.05), while Shugan granule group and TGF-β1 + Shugan granule group increased the expression of Smad7 significantly, accounting for 1.99 times compared with control group (P < 0.01). ③RT-PCR result showed that Shugan granule could increase the expression of Smad7 (P < 0.05), but the expression of Smad3 was not regulated. 5 μg/L TGF-β1 could up-regulate the expression of Smad3 and Smad7 (P < 0.05). In the TGF-β1 + Shugan granule group, Smad7 expression was increased by 101% (P < 0.05), but Smad3 transcriptional level was not changed(P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: ①TGF-β can stimulate the gene expression of Smad3 and Smad7, it also obtain a balance of feedback regulation mechanism between R-Smads and I-Smads. ②Shugan granule may prevent and cure hepatic fibrosis through decreasing the proliferation of HSCs in a dose-dependent manner. ③Shugan granule can inhibit the TGF-β-Smad signaling pathway through increasing the expression of Smad7.

Objective To observe the results of crown lengthening surgery on the teeth with subgingival defect.Methods Crown lengthening surgery was performed on 54 terior teeth,which were divided into two groups based on probing depth of pre-operation:group A (<3 mm) and group B (3-4 mm).All teeth were restored 8 weeks after operation and followed-up to 1 year.The parameters of plaque index (PLI),suleus bleeding index (SBI),maximal defect probing depth (PD) and mobility degree (MD) at different times were measured,respectively.Results PLI,BI and PD were significantly improved during the follow-up period (P<0.01).The success rates of both groups were 96.8% and 69.6%, respectively (P<0.01).No significant difference about MD in the group A one year after restoration (P>0.05),but a significant improvement in the group B (P<0.01).Conclusion Crown lengthening surgery is a good method on the teeth with subgingival defect,but one must select the right indication.

Objective:To evaluate the significance of the combination of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-filaggrin antibodies (AFAs) in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods:Sera from 266 RA patients and 186 controls were studied. RF and some kinds of AFAs (including antikeratin antibodies, anti-perinuclear factor and anticyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies) were detected using immunofluorescence and ELISA respectively. The distributions of these antibodies were compared to determine the significance of the combination of RF and AFAs. Results:The sensitivity and secificity of RF for the diagnosis of RA were 65.8% and 81.8% respectively, as compared with those of anti-CCP or RF positive were 86.5% and 80.6% respectively. Only a slight change was found in the secificity and negative predictive value between them. RF could not be detected in 91 patients while 64.8% of them could be found to have at least one kind of AFAs. Conclusion:AFAs, particular anticyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies, could be helpful for the diagnosis of RA especially in RF-negative patients.
