Journal of Chongqing Medical University 2007;0(09):-
Objective:To compare the effects on the size and distribution of stress of different adhesives on post-core crown restored posterior stump of teeth dentin, to discover reasonable post-crown adhesive material of posterior stump of teeth post-core crown,by three dimensional finite element analyses. Methods:Establish three dimensional finite element models of maxillary first molar post-core crown by CT scanning, Mimics and Abaqus software,which include post core,crown,tooth root, pericementum,alveolar bone and adhesive material. Divide above models into experimental and control group according to the relative adhesive material. Choose three load spots on the occlusal surface of this model, and exert 80N loading strength on each. Then calculate the peak value and distribution mode of Von mises stress,max-principle stress and shear stress. Results:In the different adhesive material experimental groups,the peak value of the stress on the dentin of the composite resin group was lower than those in zinc phosphate groups. Conclusion:On the condition of this experiment,different adhesives have different effects on the peak value and distribution of the stress on the post-core crown restored posterior stump of teeth dentin.
2.Research progression of ?-SYN in Cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2006;0(11):-
?-Synuclein (?-SYN ) .previously identified as a breast cancer specific gene, has a wildly tumor expression profile mainly in advanced stage. As a special chaperone,?- SYN stimulates the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells through interacting with estrogen receptor and (or) BubR1. Meanwhile, it is also detectable in the serum or urine from tumor patients, which indicates that?- SYN could be potential as a tumor marker for diagnosis and prognosis.
3.Research advances in herpesviruses glycoprotein N gene and its encoded protein.
Chinese Journal of Virology 2014;30(2):208-212
Glycoprotein N is encoded by glycoprotein N (gN) gene of herpesviruses. The amino acid composition and expression level of this protein vary among difference species of herpesviruses. According to present studies, gN protein is expressed in cytoplasm of host cells, mainly in endoplasmic reticulum. The gN forms a complex with glycoprotein M in host cells. The complex is involved in the processes of viral replication and inter-cellular infection. Moreover, this protein plays a role in immune evasion from host immune system. The study will provide a theoretical basis for further study of herpesvirus gN gene and its encoded protein.

Previous work showed that there was high ratio of Mycoplasma hyorhinis infection in human gastric carcinoma. P37 protein is a membrane lipoprotein of Mycoplasma hyorhinis. It was reported that P37 inhibited cell adhesion and induced tumor invasiveness. To investigate the function of P37 in cancer development, the p37 gene was subcloned into shuttle vector of pAdTrack-CMV. Linearized pAdTrack-CMV-p37 was co-transformed into BJ5183 cells with adenoviral genomic plasmid pAdEasy-1. The identified recombinant DNA was transfected into 293 cells to package adenovirus. From the supernatant and cell lysis, the presence of recombinant adenovirus P37 was proved by PCR. And then BICR cells with this recombinant adenovirus of P37 were successfully infected. RT-PCR and Western blot demonstrated the transcription and expression of P37 in infected BICR cells. And the soluble P37 protein can be secreted into the culture supernatant of infected BICR cells. In the migration assay in vitro, the number of migration BICR cells infected with Ad-p37 was 52.03% more than that of control. The construction of recombinant adenovirus provided a good tool for studying P37 function and its molecular mechanism, which will be further used for in vivo migration and invasion experiments.

Objective To investigate the clinical manifestation and outcome of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS).Methods The clinical data of 233 patients with SARS admitted to China-Japan Friendship Hospital from April 2003 to June 2003 were analyzed,including clinical manifestations,laboratory findings,chest radiograph,outcome and mortality of SARS.Results There were 115 male and 118 female patients in this cohort,aged 13-86 (mean 42 8?18 5yr);43 3%of the patients had one or two kinds of underlying diseases;73 0% of the patients had a history of SARS close contact. Incubation period was 1-21 days (mean 4 9?4 1d).The initial symptoms were fever in 86 3% of the patients.The respiratory symptoms were found after the onset of 1-2 weeks.The laboratory abnormalities were decreased in WBC (56 7%) and lymphocytes (78 5%).Corticosteriod was used in 69 5% of the patients.There were 10 deaths (4 3%).The elder age,underlying diseases,continued high fever, thrombocytopenia,leucocytosis and bilateral lung involvement were the risk factors.Conclusion SARS is a new and strongly contagious disease,which mainly affects youth and people in their prime life.It has its own characteristic clinical manifestations.There is high mortality in severe cases.The prognosis is poor in patients complicated with diabetes,leucocytosis,lymphocytopenia,thrombocytopenia and elevated serum LDH and CPK.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between intraplaque hemorrhage of cerebral arteries and acute cerebral infarcts. Methods 35 patients with severe stenosis in M1 segment of middle cerebral arteries (MCA)were included in this study.Intracranial TOF MRA (time of flight MR angiography)was performed to detect the stenosis in MCA,and DWI (diffusion weighted imaging) was performed to detect cerebral acute infarcts.T1 MPRAGE sequence was positioned on the stenosis in M1 segment of MCA,and intraplaque hemorrhage was determined according to high signal on T1 MRRAGE images.35 patients were divided into two groups:one group with intraplaque hemorrhage and the other group without intraplaque hemorrhage.Whether there was significant differ-ence in the incidences of acute cerebral infarcts between the two groups were determined byχ2 test.Results Intraplaque hemorrhage was detected in 1 5 patients,in which 12 patients had acute cerebral infarcts.There were no intraplaque hemorrhage in 20 patients,in which 9 patients had acute cerebral infarcts.There was significant difference in the incidences of acute cerebral infarcts between the two groups (P =0.046 <0.05).Conclusion There is a higher incidence of acute cerebral infarcts in patients with intraplaque hem-orrhage than those without intraplaque hemorrhage.Intraplaque hemorrhage in severe stenosis of cerebral arteries is a high-risk indi-cation for acute cerebral infarction.

Objective To observe conditioned enhancement of antibody production against influenza vaccine. Methods 36 female BALB/c mice were injected with 3 μg/mouse influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) as the unconditioned stimulus (UCS),and camphor odor was served as the conditioned stimulus (CS). After a CS/UCS pairing was made,animals were re-exposed to the CS at Weeks 6. Results Through one conditioned stimulus,the optical density of anti-HA antibody of the conditioned group (Weeks 9:0.68±0.06; Weeks 10:0.60±0.06)was significantly increased compared with the unconditioned group (Weeks 9:0.53±0.06; Weeks 10:0.48±0.04) ( P <0.01). The level of anti-HA antibody of the conditioned group was also significantly greater than other controlled groups( P <0.05). Conclusion Through a single exposure to camphor odor which was paired with immunization of influenza virus HA in a single trial learning protocol,a significant conditioned anti-HA IgG production occurred.
