To evaluate the effect of bFGF on the calcium influx in SGCs and its antagonistical effect on streptomycin. The SGCs of guinea pig were isolated using an enzyme machine methods and loaded with 10?mol/L Fluo 3/AM for 30 min at 37℃,then cultured 60min at room temperature. Individual Fluo 3 loaded SGCs were examined with a confocal microscope (ACAS Ultima, USA) using a 20 x objective lens and linear scan mean.The level of SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i was steady within the process of normal extracellular liquid perfusion. SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i was increased when SGCs were perfused with 150mmol/L high potassium media(10/10) and normal media containing 1nmol/L bFGF(8/9), but the level of SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i did not change in high potassium free calcium media(9/9) and free calcium media containing 1nmol/L bFGF(10/11). After the treatment with 1 mmol/L streptomycin, the level of SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i was increased 1/11 and 5/12, respectively, when perfused high potassium media and bFGF media. And after being treated with 1nmol/L bFGF, high potassium media, SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i was increased more obviously and persisted for a longer time. After being treated with 1 mmol/L streptomycin, 0 1nmol/L, 1nmol/L and 10nmol/L bFGF, respectively, and 14/14 the level of SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i was increased 5/11, 9/12, and 14/14 when perfused high potassium media. High potassium media and bFGF perfusion could result in an increase of SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i ,and SGCs[Ca 2+ ] i increase was the result of calcium influx, and there was a synergic effect between high potassium and bFGF. Streptomycin could block the process of calcium influx induced by high potassium media, the blocking effect could be antagonized by bFGF, and the antagonistic effect was bFGF concentration dependent.

Objective To explore the influence from I Ching perception of febrile disease theory to the syndrome differentiation and treatment of Viral myocarditis.Methods Documentary study.Results The febrile disease theory gained certain reference from simple ontology and motion concept in ancient Chinese philosophy.VMC was caused by disorder of five evolutive phases and six climatic factors,transition from Kan diagram to Li diagram,together with the mixture of pathogenic qi.Treatment should mainly focus on eliminating pathogen and nourishing yin to coordinate water and fire,conforming to universe rules,and smoothing Qi to reduce blockage.Conclusion The cognitive perception,pathogenesis and treatment of febrile disease theory are all deeply influenced by I Ching.Therefore,the combination of I Ching and febrile disease theory in diagnosis and treatment of VCM will improve clinical effects,as well as featuring the cultural nature of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

BACKGROUND:In previous experiments, TiO2-xNy OBJECTIVE:To study the friction properties of orthodontic brackets coated with TiO-coated bracket has been confirmed to have excelent antibacterial properties and biological safety performance. 2-xNy METHODS: TiO film. 2-xNy film was prepared by radiofrequency magnetron sputtering on MBT bracket (0.022″). The TiO 2-x N y RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: TiO-coated brackets were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy observations. The coefficient of static friction and coefficient of kinetic friction between the wires (0.012″, 0.014″, 0.016″) and orthodontic brackets were calculated. 2-xNy film on the bracket was of anatase structure, which was compact and had good crystalinity. Under dry condition, the coefficient of static friction and kinetic friction of the brackets coated with TiO2-xNy were less than those of ordinary brackets; under wet condition, the coefficients of static friction and kinetic friction of the brackets coated with TiO2-xNy were less than those of ordinary brackets, but the difference was not statisticaly significant. Nano-TiO2-xNy film can reduce the friction between bracket and archwire, which wil offer a novel opportunity to significantly reduce the friction during tooth movement.

Objective To investigate the association between carotid atherosclerosis(AS) and serum magnesium(Mg) in hemodialyzed (HD) patients.Methods Clinical index was measured,and intimamedia thickness (IMT) of extracranial common carotid artery and presence of atherosclerotic plaques were determined by high-resolution B-mode ultrasonography.The data were analyzed between plaque positive group and plaque negative group.Results The age,serum phosphate (P),total cholesterol (TCH),low density lipoprotein (LDL),serum C-reactive protein (CRP),serum albumin(Alb),and serum Mg all had significant difference between two groups(t =4.153,2.908,2.301,6.322,5.791,2.341,7.778,P ＜0.01 or P ＜ 0.05).The risk factors of HD patients with AS were serum Mg and CRP(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The occurrence of AS was related to low Mg and high CRP in HD patients.

ObjectiveTo explore the radiological features of hypophosphatasia.MethodsFive cases of hypophosphatasia were definitely diagnosed,which included 3 males and 2 females aged from 5 months to 23 years.The laboratory assays were analyzed,radiological appearances of bone were determined and differential diagnoses were made.ResultsThe alkaline phosphatase in blood serum of five patients decreased,which were 8,20,13,21,and 18 U/L respectively.Phosphoethanolamine increased in blood serum of the five patients,which were 16.5,13.5,21.6,18.7,and 28.9 μmol/L respectively.Phosphoethanolamine also increased in urine,which were 2350,9120,3520,5280,and 1820 μmol/L respectively.Calcium in blood serum increased,which were 4.2,5.6,4.9,6.1,and 3.5 mmol/L respectively.X-ray images displayed that the density of bone decreased in 5 cases,the metaphyses exhibited widening and cupping in 4 cases,the provisional calcification zone of the metaphysis became thinning or disappearing in 4 cases,long bone bended in 4 cases and pathologically fractured in 1 case.Conclusion Hypophosphatasia can be indicated by its relatively special radiological appearance,and it can be diagnosed and differentiated from rickets,osteomalacia and osteogenesis imperfect by the laboratory examination combined with its clinical presentation.

Objective To explore the dose rate response characterization of four kinds of dosimeters for clinical application.Methods Within the range of 100-600 cGy/min,the dose rate responses of the PTW 0.6 cm3 ion chamber,0.015 cm3 ion chamber,Matrixx Evolution 2D diode array and MapCHECK 2D diode array under the same measuring conditions were measured.The dose rate response of the PTW 0.6 cm3 ion chamber under different energy and working voltage were analyzed.Results All ionization chambe.r types of measured equipment showed certain dose rate dependence for 6 MV X-rays.All the differences were below 1％.The dose rate dependence disappeared for 15 MV X-rays.The 2D diode array had strong dose rate dependence and the response difference was about 2％.Conclusions It is necessary to test and analyze the dose rate response of the measured equipment in treatment technology with dose rate varying,in order to ensure the precision of daily calibration and dose verification.

Objective To investigate whether the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) metastasis associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) can act as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to promote the migration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.Methods Transient transfection of small interfering RNA (siRNA) against MALAT1 was used to knockdown MALAT1 in HepG2 cells.Transwell assays were employed to assess the migration capabilities of HepG2 cells upon MALAT1 knockdown.RNA pull-down assays were performed to validate the direct binding between MALAT1 and miR-126*.Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting assays were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of the miR-126* target genes.The dysregulation and prognostic significance of MALAT1 and miR-126* were analyzed in the public dataset of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).Results Compared with the control group, MALAT1 knockdown significantly inhibited the migration of HCC cells.MALAT1, with three miR-126* response elements, directly sponged miR-126* in a sequence-specific manner.The mRNA and protein levels of CXCL12, which was the miR-126* target gene, were significantly down-regulated upon MALAT1 knockdown.The TCGA database showed that MALAT1 was significantly up-regulated in HCC and high expression levels of MALAT1 were significantly associated with poor disease-free survival, whereas an opposite pattern of miR-126* was observed.Conclusion This study suggests that MALAT1 directly sponges miR-126* and upregulates the expression of CXCL12, which in turn promotes the migration of HCC cells.
