Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2017;21(26):4143-4148
BACKGROUND: Fluorine used for light-cured fluorine-containing resin can reduce and prevent dental caries, as well as play a long-term effect against tooth decay. However, there are rare reports on the composite preparation and performance.OBJECTIVE: To study the preparation and performance of the light-cured fluorine-containing resin. METHODS: Triethylamine as a catalyst, bisphenol A, bisphenol S, glycidyl methacrylate, trifluoroacetic anhydride and inorganic fillers (modified silicon dioxide, hydroxyapatite or titanium dioxide at mass fraction of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%)were mixed to prepare the light-cured fluorine-containing resin. Then, the tensile strength, bending modulus,polymerization conversion and water of the composites were tested, and the morphology of the resin was observed under transmission electron microscope.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At the same mass fraction, the tensile strength was highest in the titanium dioxide group, higher in the hydroxyapatite group, and lowest in the silicon dioxide group (P < 0.05). At the same mass fraction, there was no difference in the bending modulus between the titanium dioxide group and the hydroxyapatite group (P > 0.05), while the bending modulus in the silica group was significantly higher than that in the other two groups (P < 0.05).At the same mass fraction, the polymerization conversion of the composite resin was higher in the titanium dioxide group than the hydroxyapatite and silicon dioxide groups (P < 0.05), but there was no difference between the latter two groups (P > 0.05). With the increasing of mass fraction, the water absorption of the composite resin kept an increasing trend.Under the transmission electron microscope, the fracture surface of the silicon dioxide group was relatively flat, and the resin body exhibited good biocompatibility with the filler; in the hydroxyapatite group, the fracture surface was rough with obvious ups and downs, and the biocompatibility between the resin body and the filler was relatively poor; in the titanium dioxide group, the fracture surface was layered and the filler settled in the resin body, and moreover, titanium dioxide particles were deposited on the bottom of the resin, resulting in larger voids and filler particles as well as poor biocompatibility. To conclude, the light-cured fluorine-containing resin has good mechanical properties, curable properties and absorption rate.

Objective To analyze the clinical and pathologic features in patients with ldiopathic cytopenia of undetermined signif-icance (ICUS) ,and provide the diagnostic basis .Methods 10 ICUS patients who did not fulfil minimal diagnostic criteria for MDS but suffered from constant (>6 months) progressive cytopenia ,with no marked dysplasia (<10% in three-major cell lineages) and abnormal karyotype were reported .Results 2 of 10 patients transited to MDS ,bone marrow review showed that ≥2 cells appeared diagnostic pathology development .Karyotype analysis showed that 1 case was still normal ,1 case lost a normal chromosome 20 (20q-) ,the rest 8 cases had been efollowed up for 6 to 25 months and still maintain ICUS .Conclusion Patients with MDS who fail to meet the diagnostic criteria of ICUS ,must carry out regular follow-up .There are some patients can transition to public MDS after a certain incubation period ,in fact it is Pre-MDS or MDS-early before ,which shows that ICUS should cause clinical attention ,so that avoid missed diagnosis .

Objective:To observe the analgesic effect of acupuncture and to explore its central analgesic mechanism in rheumatoid arthritis rabbits.Methods:A total of 60 flap-eared white rabbits were randomly assigned into a normal control group (n=6),a model group (n=6),a body-acupuncture group (n=24),and a buccal acupuncture group (n=24).The later 2 groups were further randomly assigned into 0,0.5,1,and 2 h subgroups,with 6 cases in each group.The rheumatoid arthritis model was established by induction of eggalbumin.In the body acupuncture group,bilateral Xiyan and Zusanli were punctured for 15 s while in the buccal acupuncture group,acupuncture was applied to Xi for 15 s,with the needle retaining for 30 min.The pain threshold was detected with PL-200,taking struggle movements of rabbits as a measurement index,response latency from irradiation to struggling movements as the rabbit's pain threshold.The contents of β-endorplhin (β-EP) and cholecystokinin-8 (CCK-8) in cerebrospinal fluid were examined by radioimmunoassay.Results:Compared with the control group,pain threshold and CCK-8 levels decreased significantly (P<0.01) and the concentration of β-EP significantly increased (P<0.05) in the model group.The pain threshold in the body-acupuncture group and the buccal acupuncture group at 0 and 1 h (P<0.05 or P<0.01) increased significantly,while the β-EP and CCK-8 contents in the bodyacupuncture group and the buccal acupuncture group were significantly higher than those in the model group (P<0.01 or P<0.05).Both β-EP and CCK-8 contents in the buccal acupuncture group at 0 h were significantly higher than those in the body-acupuncture group (P<0.05).Conclusion:The analgesic effect of buccal acupuncture is superior to that of body-acupuncture.Both buccal acupuncture and body-acupuncture can effectively raise the pain threshold in acute arthritis rabbits,which is closely associated with their effects in the up-regulation of β-EP and CCK-8 contents in cerebrospinal fluid.

BACKGROUND:Acupuncture is proved to have therapeutic effect on cerebral palsy of immature rats.
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the possible effect on cerebral amino acids and neurotransmitters in immature rats with cerebral palsy by using fire-needle.
METHODS:Cerebral palsy models were established in 45 Wistar rats aged 1 week by left common carotid artery ligation and randomly assigned into model, acupuncture and positive groups (n=15 per group). The other five rats were defined as controls, without any management. At 3 days, positive group rats were oral y administrated with brain enzyme solution, and acupuncture group given fire-needle treatment at points of Neiguan (P 6), Yongquan (K 1), Quchi (LI 11) and Baihui (Du 20) for 21 days. Hanging test, inclined plane test and Y maze test were performed 1 hour after the last treatment, and the cerebral cortex and hippocampus were extracted and homogenized after execution. Lelves of acethl choline, norepinephrine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, glutamic acid andγ-aminobutyric acid were recruited, and morphology of hippocampus was observed by pathological section.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Within 21-day treatment, positive and acupuncture treatment rats were more active than model group. Compared with the control group, the body mass in the model group was significantly decreased (P<0.05);compared with the model group, the body mass in the positive and fire-needle groups were significantly increased (P<0.05), while it showed no significant difference between latter two groups. (2) The hanging time of model group rats was significantly shorter than that of control group (P<0.05), and significantly lengthened in the positive and fire-needle groups compared with the model group (P<0.05). Compared with the control rats, the error numbers of model group rats were significantly increased (P<0.05), and conversely, significantly decreased in the positive and fire-needle groups (P<0.05). (3) In the model group, the levels of norepinephrine, 5-hydroxytryptamine andγ-aminobutyric acid were significantly decreased, while glutamic acid significantly increased compared with the control group (P<0.05);compare with the model group, the positive and fire-needle group rats held significantly increased levels of norepinephrine, 5-hydroxytryptamine andγ-aminobutyric acid and decrease of glutamic acid (P<0.05). (4) Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that in the mode group, there were abundant neurons damaged, cel volume reduced, nucleus pycnosis and unclear border with nucleus;both positive and fire-needle groups could improve neuron structure induced by cerebral ischemia. (5) In conclusion, fire-needle can treat cerebral palsy effectively.
