Objective To report a familial dentinogenesis imperfecta type Ⅱ (DGI type Ⅱ) with a novel splicing mutation in DSPP (dentin sialophosphoprotein) gene.Methods Based on the result of linkage analysis performed previously to map the candidate gene DSPP in the family, the promoter,the first four exons and exon-intron boundaries of DSPP were directly sequenced for the members of the DGI type Ⅱ family. Denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) analysis was performed to confirm the results of sequencing.Results A novel splicing mutation of 23 bp deletion in intron 2 of DSPP gene was identified by DNA sequence analysis. The mutation changed acceptor site sequence from CAG to AAG, and might result in functional abolition of possible branch point site in intron 2. DHPLC result was consistent with that of sequencing. The mutation may be identified in all affected individuals, but not found in normal members of the family and 50 controls.Conclusion These results suggest the deleted mutation of DSPP gene causes DGI type Ⅱ in the family. The mutation has not been reported before.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ilaprazole enteric tablets on intragastric pH in duodenal ulcer patients. Methods A randomized, double blind, positive controlled clinical trial was carried out. A total of forty-two patients with duodenal ulcer were randomized into low dose ilaprazole group (5 mg/d), medium dose ilaprazole group (10 mg/d), high dose ilaprazole group(20 mg/d) and omeprazole group(20 mg/d). An ambulatory 24 hour intragastric pH study was performed at the fifth treatment day. Fraction time pH above 3, 4 or 5, median values of 24 hour diurnal pH and 12 hour nocturnal pH, the percentage of patients with total time pH above 3, 4 or 5 at least for 18 hours were evaluated. Results There were no significant differences of fraction time pH above 3 or 4, median values of 24 hour diurnal pH and 12 hour nocturnal pH and the percentage of patients with total time pH above 3, 4 or 5 at least for 18 hours among all the groups with different doses of ilaprazole and the omeprazole group. The fraction time pH above 5 in medium and high dose ilaprazole groups were (87.96 ± 12. 29)% and (89.86±15. 18)% respectively, which was higher than that in low dose ilaprazole group [(67. 17± 30. 16)%] and omeprazole group[(76. 14 ± 16. 75)%], P <0. 05. Conclusion Ilaprazole has a strong effect on intragastric acid control with a dose dependent trend.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of internal fixation with absorbable pins on treatment of displaced radial head fractures.
METHODSFrom May 1999 to May 2004, 16 patients with displaced radial head fractures (Mason types II and III) were treated with internal fixation by absorbable pins. The duration of follow-up averaged 22.6 months (12-58 months). The outcome was assessed on the basis of elbow motion, radiographic findings and the functional rating score delineated by Broberg and Morrey.
RESULTSAll fractures healed within 10 months without avascular necrosis of radial head. The mean elbow flexion loss was 15 degrees (0 degrees-35 degrees), and pronation and supination decreased by 10 degrees (0 degrees-30 degrees) on average compared with those of the contralateral elbow. Five patients had an excellent result, 6 a good result, and 3 a fair result according to the criteria of Borberg and Morrey.
CONCLUSIONSInternal fixation with absorbable pins is an effective method in treating displaced radial head fractures. It can maintain the biomechanical stability of forearm, improve the elbow function and avoid second operation.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effect of ERbeta on the penile vascular endothelium in mice.
METHODSWe randomly selected 12 ERbeta knockout (ERbetaKO) and 12 C57BL/6 male mice, and divided them into four groups: normal control, ERbetaKO, ERbetaKO + TNFalpha, and wild-type + TNFalpha group. The former two were treated with normal saline, while the latter two by intraperitoneal injection of TNFalpha at 6 microg/(kg x d) for 14 days. Then we observed the spontaneous erectile response induced by APO and changes of the endothelial cells by immunohistochemical staining of CD34 and vWF, and detected cell apoptosis in the penile cavernous tissue by TUNEL.
RESULTSCompared with the normal control group, the ERbetaKO group showed significantly increased erectile latency (P<0.05), but no significant difference in the number of erections; the ERbetaKO + TNFalpha and wild-type + TNFalpha groups, too, exhibited remarkably longer erectile latency (P<0.05) but fewer erections (P<0.05), with even more obvious changes in the ERbetaKO + TNFalpha group. The expressions of CD34 and vWF were significantly reduced in the ERbetaKO group (2.25 +/- 0.50 and 2.00 +/- 0.00), ERbetaKO + TNFalpha group (0.25 +/- 0.50 and 0.33 +/- 0.58) and wild-type + TNFalpha group (1.50 +/- 0.58 and 1.25 +/- 0.50) as compared with those in the control (3.00 +/- 0.00 and 2.75 +/- 0.50) (P<0.05), even lower in the ERbetaKO + TNFalpha than in the wild-type + TNFalpha group (P<0.05). Apoptotic cells were found only in the ERbetaKO + TNFalpha group.
CONCLUSIONAfter ERbeta knockout and especially after treated with the endothelial injury factor TNFalpha, endothelial cells are decreased in the penile vessels in mice, which suggests that ERbeta has a protective effect on the penile cavernous sinus endothelium.

OBJECTIVETo test whether nuclear factor kappa B plays an important role in the apoptosis-inhibitory effect of hepatitis B virus (HBV) P22(e) protein.
METHODSHepG2 cells were transfected with recombination plasmid pEGFP-HBVP22(e). The Act-D and TNF alpha were used to induce apoptosis. NF-kappa B inhibitor ALLN were used to inhibit the signaling pathway. The activation of NF-kappa B was EMSA, and the nulear translocation of NF-kappa B was determined by immuno-staining.
RESULTSLaser scanning confocal microscopy and EMSA indicated that HBV P22(e) protein enhanced the nuclear translocation of NF-kappa B after apoptosis induction. ALLN treatment inhibited the nuclear translocation of NF-kappa B, and blocked the apoptosis-inhibiting effect of HBV P22(e) protein.
CONCLUSIONThis study indicates that HBV P22(e) protein inhibits apoptosis of hepatocyte via the NF-kappa B signaling pathway.
