Objective To study the testicular breeding function and p63 expression in seminiferous tubules in androgen receptor(AR)knockout mice.Methods Eight AR knockout mice selected by Cre-lox and 8 Wistar male mice were studied.Testicular breeding function was determined by Makler score and p63 was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Seminiferous tubules inner diameter deflated in AR knockout group than in Wistar group(60.0±1.5 μm vs 92.05±2.0μm,P＜0.01),peri-tube membrane thickened(4.0±0.7 μm vs 2.85=0.9 μm,P＜0.01),the number of cell layer decreased(2.0±0.3 vs 4.0±0.2,P＜0.01),generative eell maturation arrested(3.0±1.2 score vs 5.05±0.5 score,P＜0.01),Makler score was lower(8.0±0.3 vs 16.0±0.5,P＜0.01).p63 expression was lower in AR knockout group than in Wistar group and the expression was located at the stage of spermatogenous cell and spermatocyte.Conclusion Testicular breeding sperm function is damaged in AR knockout mice,lower expression of p63 mainly affects early differentiation in generative cells.

Objective:To assess the periodontal diseases as a possible risk factor for preterm and low birth weight. Methods: A population-based, cross-sectional study was carried out in Hubei. The samples were chosen randomly by the rule of admittance. Socio-demographic information relating to health and maternal habits was collected through a questionnaire. The clinical parameters were debris index-simplified (DI-S), sulcus bleeding index (SBI), probing pocket depth (PD) and clinical attachment loss (CAJ). The birth time and weight were recorded. The result was analyzed with chi-square test and logistic regression analysis.Results: The incidence of preterm low birth weight was 12.3%. The gingivitis and periodontitis were diagnosed in 86.6% and 64.2% of preterm low birth weight cases. The odds ratio of having gingivitis and preterm low birth weight was 1.30(95%confidence interval: 0.53-3.22). The odds ratio of having periodontitis and preterm low birth weight was 2.69(95%confidence interval: 1.37-5.27). Conclusion: The periodontal diseases of pregnancy can be regarded as an important risk factor for preterm low birth weight.

Objective To explore the efficacy of different bulbourethral sling procedures in the treatment of male acquired urinary incontinence.Methods A retrospective study of 105 patients with acquired urinary incontinence was performed.The patients underwent 3 different bulbourethral sling procedures under urodynamic monitoring between October 2000 and June 2013.Mean age was 54 years (range 15-81).Urinary incontinence was secondary to post-prostatectomy in 70 patients and posterior urethroplasty in 35.Preoperatively,10 patients were completely urinary incontinence and 95 patients were stress urinary incontinence.Mean duration of urinary incontinence was 3 years (1-12).The surgical techniques were composite device suspension in 54 patients,pedicled rectus abdominalis muscle and fascial flaps suspension in 10 and transobturator sling in 41.Results The patients were followed up for 3-128 months (mean 54 months).The urethral catheter was left in situ for 5-7 days in 103 patients.Of the 103 patients,5 patients were difficulty in voiding but corrected by indwelling of urethral tube for another 1 week in 4 patients and transurethral bladder neck resecting in 1.In the remainder 2 patients,the maximum urethral pressure was 110 and 158 cm H2O (1 cm H2O=0.098 kPa) at the end of surgery and both patients were able to void on day 14 and 21 respectively and achieved complete continence.In this study,complete continence was achieved with good voiding in 74 patients (70.5％),completed control of urination rate was 81,4％ (57/70) in group of prostate and 48.6％ (17/35) in group of posterior urethroplasty.Twenty-six patients were improved and 5 patients were failed.Conclusion Bulbourethral sling procedure under urodynamic monitoring is an effective option in the treatment of male acquired urinary incontinence,especially for patients of incontinence of post-prostatectomy.

BACKGROUND: Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) can be induced toward the chondrogenic lineages with chondrogenic medium contained transforming growth factor-β_1(TGF-β_1). However, it remains concerned about the disadvantage with use of TGF-β_1 in vitro, which can induce chemotaxis, activate inflammatory cells, cause local defect and want an ideal matrix to deliver proteins. Therefore, with advanced gene-delivery techniques, TGF-β_1 can be long-lasting expressed by transduced stem cells, which is very useful for Chondrogenic Tissue Engineering.OBJECTIVE: To master the method of construction and transfection of eukaryotic expression vector for rat transforming growth factor-β_1 and to study the possibility of gene transfection to ADSCs with this vector.METHODS: Recombining DNA techniques were applied to construct recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1-TGF-β_1. And this plasmid was verified by restriction endonuclease mapping and DNA sequencing; Then the plasmid with TGF-β_1 gene or not was transfected into ADSCs by use of LipofectamineTM2000. After infection, transduced ADSCs were diluted and cultured with neomycin (G418). Gene transfer efficiency compared on the basis of green fluorescent protein expression was assessed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Digestion of the plasmid with double restriction endo- nuclease XboⅠand Hind Ⅲ showed about two specific electrophoretic strips (1.35 bp and 5.4 kb), and the sequence of the rat TGF-β_1 gene in recombinant was concorded with that reported in Genbank. There were 80 percent of the cells which were transduced, and the expressions of mRNA and protein of TGF-β_1 in ADSCs were discovered positively. These indicated that the eukaryotic expression vector for rat TGF-β_1 (i.e. pcDNA3.1-TGF-β_1) , which is able to transfect the ADSCs, can be constructed through genetic recombination.

Objective To explore the outcome of modified bladder neck reconstruction in treating the urinary incontinence due to the sphincter dysfunction.Methods Between January 2010 and December 2014,a total of 23 patients,including 16 male and 7 female cases,with incontinence due to sphincter dysfunction had undergone a procedure of modified bladder neck reconstruction.The mean age was 36 years (range 17-61 years).Etiology of incontinence was secondary to pelvic fracture and urethral rupture procedure in 19 patients and other failure procedures in 4 cases.The mean duration of incontinence was 2 years (range 1-5 years).Urodynamic examination was performed in all patients and the mean maximum urethral pressure was 34 cmH2O (range 21-43 cmH2O).The modified bladder neck reconstruction was performed in 23 patients.Under the general anesthesia and vertical bladder incision,triangular mucosal strips,from the bladder neck to ureteral office,were denuded and leaving the central urethral plate,which was 2.0-2.5 cm in width.In order to form a neourethra and bladder neck,the multilayer triangular muscles were sutured interruptedly over a 14-16 F catheter using 2-0 or 3-0 polyglactin.And the anterior wall of the bladder was then closed over the new bladder neck using continuous sutured.Results The 23 patients were followed up for 6 months to 3 years,mean 1.4 years.Continence achieved in 5 patients.Of them,2 patients had difficulty in voiding but corrected by indwelling the catheter for another 2 weeks.Social continence was achieved in 7 patients.Incontinence status was improved in 7 cases and failed in 2 cases.Urodynamic examination was performed in 4 patients and the mean maximum urethral pressure was 64 cmH2O (range 52-72 cmH2O).Conclusions Our study suggested that the modified bladder neck reconstruction was a good procedure for the treatment of urinary incontinence due to sphincter dysfunction,particularly for the incontinence secondary to the traumatic urethral stricture or other operation.
