[Objective]To explicate whether the telomerase activity is regulated by human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) in human bone marrow mesenchyme stem cells(hBMSC).[Method]hBMSC were cultured and transfected with eukaryotic expressing plasmid pCIneo-hTERT encoding hTERT. After selection with G418 to stabilize the transfection,expression of hTERT mRNA was detected with TR-PCR, detecting the expression of hTERT protein was detected with Western Bolt, and the telomerase activity in untransfected and transfected cells were detected by RT-PCR.[Result]The hMSCs grew well after transfecting plasmid pCIneo-hTERT.The cells began to suspend and die after the day of the G418 selection. At the tenth day,all the untransfected cells were dead, but the transfected cells began to clone proliferation. So the density of G418 subdued to 100 ?g/ml for maintaining selecting, at the twentieth day,there were obvious anti-G418 cell clones. After stable transfection, hTERT was expressed at mRNA and protein level in these anti-418 cell clones, and meanwhile telomerase activity was positive and obviously raise up in these transfected cells.[Conclusion]In human' bone marrow mesenchyme cells,telomerase could be activated by exogenous hTERT. This is a foundation to establish immortalized human bone marrow mesenchyme stem cell line.

Objective To explore the effect of the prevention and treatment of unstable bladder after suprapubic prostaectomy by capsaicin instilled into the bladder preoperatively combined with patient-controlled epidural analgesia(PCEA)for benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH).Methods Sixty patients with BPH underwent suprapubic prostatectomy under epidural anesthesia were randomly divided into control group (30 cases)and treatment group(30 cases),100 ml of 100 μmol/L capsaicin was instilled into the bladder preoperatively for 30 minutes combined with PCEA after operation in treatment group,the control group was only given PCEA.Observed the incidence and continuous time of unstable bladder after operation in two groups.Results Unstable bladder was found in 3 cases of treatment group and they were Ⅰdegree,12 cases happened unstable bladder in control group,3 cases Ⅰdegree,5 cases Ⅱdegree,3 cases Ⅲ degree,1 case Ⅳ degree.There was obvious significance between two groups (P＜0.05).Conclusion Capsaicin instilled into the bladder combined with PCEA can cut off the reflex arc of detrusor contraction more completely and has obvious effect of decrease the incidence of unstable bladder after suprapubic prostatectomy and can be used widely.

Root canal therapy is the most widely used method to treat the teeth with pulpal and periapical disorders. However, due to the complexity of root canal system, the existence of extraradicular biofilms and occurrence of true cyst, some teeth with pulpal and periapical diseases couldn′t be treated effectively by non-surgical therapies. Then the combination of the surgical treatment, i.e., endodontic surgery, is necessary. The endodontic microsurgery, under the magnification and illumination provided by the dental operation microscope and with the proper use of micro instruments, ultrasonic retrotips and bioceramics root end filling materials, can treat the teeth with pulpal or periapical disorders precisely and less traumatically with high success rate. This article reviews the indications, contraindications, clinical strategy and latest advancement in endodontic microsurgery.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the outcome and the potential prognostic factors of apical microsurgery.

METHODSThe teeth with persistent periapical diseases were treated by microsurgery using micro instruments, ultrasonic retrotips and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) under dental operate microscope. The procedure includes incision and flap retraction, osteotomy, apicoectomy, retro- preparation and retro- filling of root canal. Patients were recalled at 1, 3, 6, and 12- month intervals. The outcome was evaluated by clinical and radiographic examinations, and the potential prognostic factors were analyzed.

RESULTSOne hundred and eighty cases (240 teeth), including 132 upper anterior teeth, 22 lower anterior teeth, 31 upper premolars, 18 lower premolars, 19 upper molars and 18 lower molars, were treated by microsurgery between July 2010 and December 2012. A total of 152 cases (207 teeth) were recalled. The application of the apical microsurgery included failure of previous endodontic treatment, periapical lesion with post, periapical cyst, calcified canals, separated instruments, overfilling, open apex, root facture, failure of previous apical surgery, apical fenestration, and special root canal system. The success rate was 90.8% (188/207). Age, sex, tooth position, type of periapical radiolucency, fistula and clinical application type appeared to have a negative effect on the outcome. Endo-perio lesion was a significant factor. Eighteen cases (19 teeth) failed mainly because of periodontally involved lesion and vertical root fracture.

CONCLUSIONSApical microsurgery, which combines the magnification and illumination provided by the microscope with the proper use of micro instruments, can treat the teeth with persistent periapical diseases precisely and less traumatically with high success rate. Case selection and standardized operations play a key role for success.

Regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) is a biologic-based treatment modality for immature permanent teeth diagnosed with pulp necrosis. The ultimate objective of REPs is to regenerate the pulp-dentin complex, extend the tooth longevity and restore the normal function. Scientific evidence has demonstrated the efficacy of REPs in promotion of root development through case reports, case series, cohort studies, and randomized controlled studies. However, variations in clinical protocols for REPs exist due to the empirical nature of the original protocols and rapid advancements in the research field of regenerative endodontics. The heterogeneity in protocols may cause confusion among dental practitioners, thus guidelines and considerations of REPs should be explicated. This expert consensus mainly discusses the biological foundation, the available clinical protocols and current status of REPs in treating immature teeth with pulp necrosis, as well as the main complications of this treatment, aiming at refining the clinical management of REPs in accordance with the progress of basic researches and clinical studies, suggesting REPs may become a more consistently evidence-based option in dental treatment.

The dental operative microscope has been widely employed in the field of dentistry, particularly in endodontics and operative dentistry, resulting in significant advancements in the effectiveness of root canal therapy, endodontic surgery, and dental restoration. However, the improper use of this microscope continues to be common in clinical settings, primarily due to operators' insufficient understanding and proficiency in both the features and established operating procedures of this equipment. In October 2019, Professor Jingping Liang, Vice Chairman of the Society of Cariology and Endodontology, Chinese Stomatological Association, organized a consensus meeting with Chinese experts in endodontics and operative dentistry. The objective of this meeting was to establish a standard operation procedure for the dental operative microscope. Subsequently, a consensus was reached and officially issued. Over the span of about four years, the content of this consensus has been further developed and improved through practical experience.
