Objective To observe and analyze the changes of prostaglandin E2 (PGE-2)and elastase (EA)levels in the pulp blood of the patients with carious tooth complicated with exposed pulp and its influence on the curative effects of direct pulp capping treatment.Methods 80 cases of the patients with carious tooth complicated with exposed pulp treated with direct pulp capping treatment were selected as the observation group and 40 cases of the patients treated with normal removal of impacted third molar were selected as the control group.The levels of PGE-2 and EA in the pulp blood of the patients in the two groups before the treatments were detected and compared.A one-year follow-up was employed for the patients in the observation group and the curative effects were evaluated and compared.Results The levels of PGE-2 and EA in the pulp blood of the patients in the observation group were 132.28±63.55 ng/ml and 114.36±19.57μg/ml respectively,and the levels of PGE-2 and EA in the pulp blood of the patients in the control group were 0.61±1.26 ng/ml and 19.38±6.34μg/ml respectively.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups (t=43.129,29.675,P<0.05). There was a positive relationship between the PGE-2 level and EA level in the pulp blood of the patients in the observation group (r=0.782,P<0.05).The levels of PGE-2 and EA in the pulp blood before the treatment of the patients with suc-cessful effects were 84.63±13.17 ng/ml and 68.25±8.16μg/ml,and the levels of PGE-2 and EA in the pulp blood before the treatment of the patients with failed effects were 177.35±41.42 ng/ml and 152.36±16.28μg/ml.There were statisti-cally significant differences between the two types of patients (t=31.578,21.556,P<0.05).Conclusion The patients with carious tooth complicated with exposed pulp show the significantly increased expression levels of PGE-2 and EA in pulp blood.The higher expression levels of PGE-2 and EA before the treatment could put adverse influence on the curative effects of direct pulp capping treatment.The clinicians should give the comprehensive consideration to the specific condition of pa-tients to choose the proper treatment methods.

Objective To explore the clinical application of material decomposition technique on spectral CT imaging and evaluate hemodynamic changes in different liver lobes with liver cirrhosis.Methods 30 patients with liver cirrhosis diagnosed clinically in our hospital were collected and underwent enhanced scanning of abdomen with spectral CT protocol.The monochromatic energy images and iodine-based material decomposition (MD) images were reconstructed after scanning.The iodine concentration (IC) was measured in five liver lobes (the caudate, left lateral, left inner, right anterior and right posterior lobes) and the abdominal aorta of the same axial slice in both the arterial phase (AP) and portal venous phase (VP) on the iodine-water based material decomposition images.The arterial iodine fraction (AIF) and the portal venous iodine concentration (PVIC) as well as the normalized iodine concentration (NIC) during the AP and VP were calculated.The differences of IC,the NIC,the AIF,and the PVIC in five liver lobes in AP and VP were compared by using single factor analysis of variance.Results The IC,the NIC in both AP and VP and the AIF of the caudate liver lobe were higher than those of other four liver lobes, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05), while these values in the other four lobes showed no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).The PVIC of the caudate liver lobe was slightly lower than that of the other four liver lobes, however, the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.929).Conclusion The quantitative iodine concentration measurement of liver lobes on spectral CT material decomposition technique can evaluate the hemodynamic changes in liver lobes with liver cirrhosis,and provide more information about the change of blood flow in liver cirrhosis.

The aim of this study was to obtain the alginate gels which could have proper compressive strength and excellent permeability for cell proliferation and could have more promising potentials in the application of tissue engineering. Through the reaction of the carboxyl of the alginate and the amino of methacrylic acid, methylacrylic was generated into alginate long chain which could be enhanced by the polymerization of double bond under thermal reaction condition. And then alginate gel beads were prepared using the mixture of calcium chloride and barium chloride solution as cationic crosslinker, and the compressive modulus and permeability of the prepared alginate gel beads were investigated. When the ratio of barium ions to calcium ions was 5:5, the compression modulus was 189.7 kPa, and it showed the best permeability for trypsin with molecular weight of 24 kDa and entrapment effect for bovine serum albumin with molecular weight of 67 kDa. Compared to compositions of other ratios, the alginate gel beads made in 5:5 mixture indicated excellent compressive modulus and permeability. These results indicated that the alginate hydrogel beads with the ratio of barium ions to calcium ions being 5:5 have a potential application in tissue engineering as a support material and encapsulating materials in cell culture.

Objective To investigate the effects of insulin resistance (IR)on hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)inj ury in PC1 2 cells and the protective effects of N-actyl-L-cystine (NAC)against H/R inj ury. Methods PC12 cells were treated with 100 nmol/L insulin to induce IR. The H/R injury model was established by Na2 S2 O4. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell viability. Glucose consumption was detected by glucose oxidase method. Activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD)was detected by xanthine oxidase method. The levels of malonaldehyde (MDA)were measured by thiobarbituric acid method. Flow cytometry was used to determine the apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). Results High-insulin inhibited insulin-induced glucose uptake in PC12 cells without affecting the cell viability (P<0. 05). PC12 cells with IR exhibited lower SOD activity and higher levels of MDA (P<0. 05 ),and enhanced apoptosis and depolarization of MMP induced by H/R(P<0. 05). NAC neutralized these effects induced by IR(P<0. 05). Conclusion IR aggravates H/R injury in PC12 cells by enhancing oxidative stress and NAC reduces the H/R injury in PC12 cells with IR via inhibiting oxidative stress and stabilizing MMP.
