OBJECTIVEThis study aimed to improve students' ability in practical and theoretical courses of oral health education and to promote students' learning interest and initiative.

METHODSFourth-year students of the oral medical profession from 2006 to 2008 at Weifang Medical University were chosen as research objects for oral health education to explore the experimental teaching reform. The students were divided into test and control groups, with the test group using the "speak out" way of teaching and the control group using the traditional teaching method. Results of after-class evaluation of the test group, as well as final examination and practice examination of the two groups, were analyzed and compared.

RESULTSAfter-class evaluation results of the test group showed that the "speak out" teaching method was recognized by the students and improved students' ability to understand oral health education. The final examination and practice examination results showed that the score of the test group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSION"Speak out" teaching methods can improve students' ability for oral health education, in accordance with the trend of teaching reform.

Objective To generate the spaO-ompA fusion gene of Salmonella paratyphi A and its prokaryotic expression system,and to determine the immunoprotection of the recombinant expression product rSpaO-OmpA.Methods A flexible peptide sequence was used to link spaO and ompA genes and a prokaryotic expression system of spaO-ompA fusion gene was subsequently generated.SDS-PAGE and Bio-Rad Agarose Image Analyzer were applied to examine the expression as well as the yield of the target recombinant protein rSpaO-OmpA.The antigenicity and immunoreactivity of rSpaO-OmpA were determined using immunodiffusion test,Western Blot assay and micro-Widal's test.By a mouse infection model,the immunoprotection of rSpaO-OmpA against the lethal challenge of S.paratyphi A was determined.In the animal protective test,the recombinant expressed SpaO (rSpaO) and OmpA ( rOmpA ) were used as the controls.Results The generated spaO-ompA fusion gene had 100％ nucleotide and amino acid sequence identities compared to the single spaO or ompA gene.The constructed prokaryotic expression system IPTG E.coli BL21DE3pET42a-spaO-ompA expressed the recombinant protein rSpaO-OmpA.rSpaO-OmpA combined with the antiserum against wholecell of S.paratyphi A to present positive hybridization signal and induced specific antibody in the immunized rabbits.Immunization with 100 or 200 μg rSpaO-OmpA contributed 66.7％ (8/12) or 83.3％ (10/12) immunoprotective rates in mice when the animals were attacked with S.paratyphi A.The immunoprotective rates produced by rSpaO-OmpA were significantly higher than that of equal rSpaO or rOmpA( P＜0.05 ).The sera from rSpaO-OmpA immunized mice presented 1∶5-1∶40 agglutination titers to the H antigens of different S.paratyphi species,and 1∶1-1∶16 immunodiffusion titers to rSpaO,rOmpA and rSpaO-OmpA proteins,respectively.Conclusion The artificially fusion antigen,rSpaO-OmpA,has more powerful immunogenicity and immunoprotection that the equal rSpaO or rOmpA.

Objectiye To explore the expression of COX-2 and VEGF and its clinical significance in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Methods The expression of COX-2 and VEGF were detected by immunohistochemistry in 42 cases of NHL and 20 cases of lymph node with benign pathological change. Results The positive rate of COX-2 and VEGF was 45.24% and 73.81% in NHL respectively. The expression rate of VEGF was positively correlated with that of COX-2 in tissues of NHL ( x2 = 4. 63, P ＜ 0. 05).The expression of COX-2 was related to clinical stage and histopathologic grade of NHL ( x2 = 5.43, P ＜0. 05), but it had no association with gender, age, B symptoms, and IPI. The expression of VEGF was significantly related with aggression, B symptoms and IPI ( x2 =8. 979, 8. 893,6. 434, P ＜0. 05), but it had no association with age, gender and clinical stages. Conclusion COX-2 and VEGF may be involved in NHL tumorgenesis, and COX-2 may accelerate angiogenesis by increasing VEGF expression. Specific COX-2 inhibitors may be a novel therapeutic approach for NHL.

Objective To compare three methods for the extraction of mycobacterial DNA.Methods Two commercial DNA extraction kits and an ordinary freeze-thawing method were used to extract DNA from the pure suspensions of three species of Mycobacteria (M.tuberculosis,M.leprae and M.smegmatis) at different densities (1 × 10 to 1 × 105 cells/ml),simulated clinical specimens containing different concentrations of mycobacterial cells (1 × 10 to 1 × 104 cells/ml).The purity and concentration of the extracted DNA were evaluated.Then,PCR was performed to amplify the 16S rRNA region of Mycobacteria.The performance of the three methods was compared by the purity and concentration of extracted DNA as well as the results of PCR.Further more,76 clinical skin specimens suspected to be infected with Mycobacteria were used to further validate the performance of these methods.Results All the extracted DNA samples could be detected by PCR.The highest purity of DNA was obtained by the kit A,followed sequentially by the freeze-thawing method and the kit B.When pure suspensions were used,the detection limit was consistently 1 × 102 cells/ml for all the three methods.With simulated specimens,the detection rate was consistently 100％ for all the three methods at the concentration of 1 × 103 cells/ml,60％ (12/20),55％ (11/20) and 55％ (11/20) for the kit A,kit B and freeze-thawing method respectively at the concentration of 1 × 102 cells/ml.The analysis of clinical specimens showed that the kit B could be used to extract DNA from paraffin-embedded specimens,with the detection rate similar to that of kit A and freeze-thawing method.Conclusions The kit A could rapidly yield high-quality genomic DNA of Mycobacteria by repeated cleaning of columns,and may serve as the optimal method for scientific and clinical studies,and the kit B is suitable for extracting mycobacterial DNA from fresh tissue specimens besides paraffin-embedded specimens.
