Objective To discuss the influence of dental occlusion on mandibular movements. The characteristic tracings of mandibular movements at the condyle of unilateral posterior crossbite patients were investigated using a computerized axiography. The differences between patients with normal occlusion and unilateral posterior crossbite were compared by some recordings of condylar movements in three dimensions. Methods Seven unilateral posterior crossbite patients (at least two posterior teeth were crossbite) were chosen as experiment group, and five with normal occlusion without signs or symptoms of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) were chosen as controls. By computer-aided axiography (CADIAX) and gamma dental software for windows 2.3.2.22 (GDSW) from Grbh company (Germany), the tracings of condylar movements in right and left parasagittal planes during opening/closing were recorded, and the data were input into the computer and analyzed using GDSW software. The drifts in X, Y and Z coordinated with condylar movements, respectively, and the transverse condylar inclination from the orbital axis line and the horizontal condylar inclination were calculated, respectively. Results The lengths of the axiographical in opening/closing movement were significantly shorter in the experiment group than that in normal occlusion group; the bilateral condylar tracing of opening/closing movement was symmetric in younger cases but asymmetric in older cases; the lateral deviation of opening/closing movement was significantly larger in unilateral posterior crossbite than that in control group. Conclusion The condylar tracings of envelope of movement in unilateral posterior crossbite patients are significantly different in the patients with normal occlusion. With age increasing, tracings of the affected side and contralateral side vary from symmetry to asymmetry. The results suggest that the functional opening movements are limited in the patients with the unilateral posterior crossbite.

The association between psychogenic illness and human endogenous viruses (HEVs), including human endogenous retrovirus and Borna disease virus, remains unclear. As the component of human genome, HEVs may become the joint of various pathogenic factors of schizophrenia (SZ), such as heredity, environment, and immunity. In this review, we strive to uncover the clinical and laboratory evidence for the roles and possible pathogenic mechanism of HEVs in the development of SZ.

Objective To investigate the effects of Tubastatin A Hcl,a selective HDAC6 inhibitor,on the development of chronic asthmatic mice with airway inflammation,airway remodeling and airway hyperresponsiveness. Methods BALB/C mice were randomly divided into control group, asthma group,dexamethasone group and Tubastatin A Hcl group. The airway resistance,total cells and different cells in BALF,IL?4,IL?5,TGF?β1 were detected by ELISA. HE、AB?PAS and Masson trichrome staining were carried out to assess the airway inflammation and remodeling. Immuno?histochemical staining and western blotting were adopted to determine the expression ofα?SMA and TGF?β1. Results After drugs treatment,air?way resistance decreased,and levels of IL?4,IL?5,TGF?β1,total inflammatory cells and eosinophils in BALF were relieved. Meanwhile,inflamma?tory cells infiltration,goblet cells metaplasia and collagen deposition in lung tissue were also reduced,but all of above the effects of dexamethasone were better than Tubastatin A Hcl. The expression ofα?SMA and TGF?β1 in the lung tissue decreased significantly after treatment ,in which Tu?bastatin A Hcl were slightly better than dexamethasone treatment. Conclusion Tubastatin A Hcl can effectively relieve airway inflammation ,air?way remodeling and airway hyperresponsiveness in chronic asthmatic mice ,but its effect of anti?inflammatory is worse than dexamethasone treat?ment,while it is better than dexamethasone in the effect of relief airway remodeling.

BackgroundThe study of myopia development is always the hotspot worldwide. Recently,scientist found that some growth factor secreted by retinal nerve epithelium cells and retinal pigment epithelium(RPE)cells are associated with the development of myopia. Whenever, the absorption of RPE cells to different wave-length lights is different. ObjectiveThis study was to investigate the effects of different wave-lengths lights on the proliferation of human RPE cells, and explore the influence of different wave-lengths lights on RPE cells secreting hepatocyte growth factor(HGF) ,basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β).Methods The fourth to fifth passages of human embryonic RPE cells were exposed to blue light( λ =480 nm),red light( λ =775 nm) and white light. The cells of control group were harvested in normal condition. The proliferation and growth of RPE cells were assayed by MTT,and the ultrastructure of cells was examined under the transmission electron microscopy at 48 hours after light exposure of RPE cells. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was adopted to determine the concentrations of HGF,bFGF and TGF-β in the culture medium in 12,24,48,72 hours. The expression of HGF mRNA in RPE cells was detected by RT-PCR. This study was approved by Ethic committee of Fudan University. ResultsThe A490 values of the cells exposed to blue light,red light,white light and white light were 0. 0218±0. 0014 ;0. 0353±0. 0025 ;0. 0371 ±0. 0024 and 0. 0445 +0. 0046 respectively with the significant difference among 4 groups ( F =12. 579, P＜0.05 ), and A490 value in blue light group, red light group were significantly lower than that of the control group ( t =2.043 ; t =2.024, P＜0.05 ). ELISA showed that the concentrations of HGF and TGF-β in culture medium were evidently elevated as the prolongation of light exposure in various light exposure groups in 72 hours(HGF) and 48 hours(TGF-β) compared with 12 hours with a predominating rise in the control group. The statistically significant differences were found in the concentrations of HGF and TGF-β between control group and blue light group or red light group in the( all P＜0. 05 ). The bFGF level was decreased with the time increase of various light exposure with the significant differences in 72 hours compared with 12 hours( P＜0.05 ). RT-PCR revealed the considerable difference about expression of HGF mRNA in RPE cells among these four groups( P＜0. 05 ), and the lest expression in HGF mRNA was in the blue light group compared with control group( t =3. 972,P＜0.05 ). Thinning of the chromatin, decreasing of organelle and loss of cellular membrane were seen in the blue light group, but no obvious change of ultrastructure of human embryo RPE cells was found in the ret and white light groups. ConclusionsThe irradiation of different wave-length light can effect the growth and proliferation and secretion of HGF,bFGF and TGFβ in human RPE cells in vitro,implying myopia formation is associated to exposure of different wave-length light.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the compatible stability of Voriconazole for injection after mixed with Fructose injec-tion or Invert sugar injection. METHODS:Referring to package inserts,Voriconazole for injection 200 mg was dissolved with Wa-ter for injection to 20 mL,and then combined with Fructose injection 250 mL and Invert sugar injection 250 mL,respectively. At room temperature,the appearance of mixtures were observed 0,1,2,3,4,5 h after mixing,and pH value and the number of in-soluble particles were determined;the content of voriconazole was determined by HPLC. RESULTS:Under above condition,the appearance and pH value of mixtures had no significant change within 5 h;the number of particles ≥10 μm and ≥25 μm were all in line with the standard of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 edition);the relative content of voriconazole was decreasing (95.28%-100%),but it changed within ±5%(RSD<2%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:Voriconazole for injection could keep stable within 5 h after mixed with Fructose injection or Invert sugar injection.
