Objective To investigate the influence of transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6) on the proliferation of hUVEC induced by the supematant from human prostate cancer cells (DU145). Methods Experiment group was treated with the mixture of DU145 cells supernatant and DMEM medium in different ratio, control group was treated with DMEM medium. The change of cell proliferation was detected by MTT method, and TRPC6 gene and protein was detected by PCR and Western-blot methods respectively. Results After incubated for 48h with the supematant from cultured DU145 cells,the population of hUVECs increased obviously, and the expression of TRPC6 genes and protein had clearly up-regulation. Conclusion The supernatant from cultured DU145 cells could effectively enhance the proliferation of hUVECs. The mechanisms might be that the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells was mediated by TRPC6.

Objective Attenuated strains of Shigella are attractive live vaccine candidates for eliciting mucosal immune responses which is a suitable carrier for the prophylactic human papillomaviruses (HPV) vaccine development, To examine the potential of a live Shigella based prophylactic HPV vaccine, HPV16L1should be expressed in attenuated shigella strain. Methods A Shigella large invasive plasmid (icsA/virG) based prokaryotic expression plasmid pHS3199 was constructed. HPV16L1 gene was inserted into plasmid pHS3199 to form pHS3199-HPV16 L1 construct, and pHS3199-hpv16L1 was electroporated into a live attenuated shigella strain sh42. The expression of HPV16L1 protein was demonstrated by Western blotting with monoclonal antibody to HPV16L1, The genetic stability of recombinant strain sh42-HPV16 L1 was monitored by consecutive passage culture. Invasive ability of sh42-HPV16L1 was evaluated by Hela cell infection assay. Results HPV16 L1 protein can be expressed in recombinant strain sh42-HPV16 L1, and the protein stably expressed over 140 generations. The invasive ability of sh42-HPV16L1 was diminished dramatically compared to its parent strain, but not abolished completely. Conclusion HPV16L1 protein was constitutively expressed in the attenuated strain of shigella flexneri sh42, and maintained partial invasive ability. Our strategy may represent a promising vaccine candidate against genital HPV16 infection.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of tensile band wire fixation and plate fixation for treating children with olecroanon fracture.Methods Sixty-three children with olecroanon fracture at Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2006 to January 2014 were selected.In those cases of fracture by means of open reduction,41 cases were treated with tensile band wire,and 22 cases were treated with internal fixation with anatomical plate.Operation time,bleeding during operation,recovery time postoperatively,postoperative complications and joint function recovery were analyzed by using independent sample t-test and chi-square test.Results In the group of tensile band wire,there was no case of Kirschner wire loosening and displacement fracture.In group of steel plate,there were 2 cases of myositis ossificans.In the 2 groups,there was no case of bone nonunion.The average operation time:plate fixation group was (65.3 ± 8.4) min and tension band wire group was (58.4 ± 12.6) min,and there was a significant difference between the both groups (t =7.419,P ＜ 0.05);blood loss:plate fixation group was (5.3 ±0.8) mL and tension band wire group was (4.7-± 1.2) mL,and there was a significant difference between the both groups (t =2.595,P ＜ 0.05);fracture healing time:plate fixation group was (74.1 ± 8.4) d and tension band wire group was (61.7 ±9.3) d,and there was a significant difference between the both groups (t =10.636,P ＜0.05).With Broberg-Morrey to evaluate two groups'quality rate of function recovery,there was no significant difference in statistics with 85.3％ (35/41 cases) in tensile band wire group and 81.8％ (17/22 cases) in steel plate group(x2 =0.651,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Olecranon fracture in children using tension band wire fixation may be a better way,more suitable for promotion and implementation at basic hospital.

Ideal sutures can provide great fixation, wound closure and a stable environment for healing of the surgical site. Tension-free apposition sutures are important for tissue regeneration and could tackle insufficient amounts of soft and hard tissue, especially in missing tooth sites that require implantation. The internal horizontal mattress suture, similar to the conventional horizontal mattress suture, forms a rectangle that can be bisected by the incision with both intrusion and extrusion of the needle on each side. On the basis of the rectangle, the internal horizontal mattress suture emphasizes that the suture should be located below the incision, so the eversion of the wound margin is the highlight of this procedure. The internal horizontal mattress suture could stabilize the graft on the targeting tissue, realize the fixation of the collagen membrane, apically repositioned flap and soft tissue graft, reduce the tension on the incision, and further release the tension of the incision margin. Beyond the primary need for fixation and wound closure, internal horizontal mattress sutures can also achieve stress interruption that reduces the interference of the surrounding muscle and can better master wound tension with the assistance of interrupted sutures. Given the above advantages, horizontal internal mattress sutures have great potential in the application of implant-related regenerative surgery. In this review, according to our experience in clinical practice and the literature, we summarize the advantages of internal horizontal mattress sutures in tissue augmentation. In addition, the sites and sequence to insert the needle and the spatial relationship between the suture and incision are clarified with the rationale of the naming pattern, which is conducive to experience exchange and clinical practice.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayers secreted by a variety of cells that contain nucleic acids, proteins, etc. They can be used as a carrier for cell-to-cell communication. In related research on bone regeneration, mechanisms for transmitting regeneration signals to target cells to achieve the desired goal of osteogenesis have become one of the most important and unsolved topics. Therefore, this review aims to explore the role of mesenchymal stem cells and EVs derived from osteoblasts in bone regeneration in four processes, immunity, angiogenesis, osteogenesis and mineralization, and to provide new ideas for basic and clinical research.

Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) are two important signaling molecules for natural bone repair that are widely applied in the field of bone tissue engineering. BMP-2 accelerates the maturation and mineralization of osteoblasts, and bFGF exhibits significant effects on the promotion of cell division and angiogenesis. The osteogenesis mechanism of BMP-2 differs from that of bFGF, leading to a potentially complementary role between the two proteins. The use of a suitable dose of bFGF in combination with BMP-2 in bone tissue engineering synergistically promotes the formation of new bone and exhibits a better repair effect than either single growth factor. However, the suitable dose range of BMP-2 and bFGF in combination should be further clarified. The mechanism of the synergism and antagonism between BMP-2 and bFGF must be further delineated, and a drug delivery system that better simulates the growth factor release pattern during natural bone repair remains to be designed.

The foreign body reaction refers to a chronic inflammatory reaction and a wound-healing reaction that mainly involve macrophages and foreign body giant cells, which occur after a biological material is implanted into the body. Since macrophages in the foreign body reaction are recruited to the surface of the material after implantation of the material, subsequent secretion of a series of inflammatory factors and fusion into foreign body giant cells may lead to the degradation of the biological materials and environmental stress cracking. Moreover, the prolongation of macrophage polarization and the influence of related receptors may also lead to the phenomenon of fiber encapsulation, resulting in poor prognosis. Some scholars are committed to reducing the response of foreign bodies from the perspective of macrophages and foreign body giant cells, specifically by regulating the secretion of related inflammatory factors, reducing the subtypes of M1 macrophages, promoting their polarization to M2 macrophages, and regulating the fusion of macrophages and selective expression of macrophage-associated receptors to regulate fibrosis. The new immunological view holds that macrophages have the potential to repair bone tissue via angioplasts and osteogenesis in foreign body reactions. Therefore, the gold standard that has long been considered in regenerative medicine, which is that an inert material does not cause a foreign body reaction, is expected to be gradually replaced by tissue engineering that regulates tissue activity and function.

Autogenous dentin is a promising biological material that can be used as a substitute for autologous bone. It has been used in postextraction site preservation, maxillary sinus floor elevation, and alveolar ridge augmentation. The clinical application methods of autologous dentin have showed great diversity without uniform standard. The present article reviewed the clinical application of autogenous dentin to provide new ideas for its future development. The literature review results show that dentin materials require several preparations before transplantation, among which the demineralization is a common chemical processing method. Demineralization can enhance the osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties of dentin, but the complex and time-consuming operation process has limited its application to a certain extent. Partial demineralization may be a more appropriate choice. During transplantation, the morphology of dentin depends on the condition of the bone defect and the surgical method. Granular materials with different diameters are convenient for filling irregular defects. Block materials are conducive to maintaining the space of the reconstruction site. Hollow frame materials are slightly more complicated to process but can combine the advantages of granular and block grafts. In addition to being used alone, dentin can also be transplanted in combination with multiple biological materials. Platelet-rich plasma combined with dentin materials has shown ideal results in clinical studies. Plaster of paris and calcium phosphate ceramics have also been combined with dentin materials in animal experiments. But since they have not been applied in humans, their clinical effects require further research.

Objective: To propose a digitally modified and guided bone regeneration technique supported by a nonabsorbable titanium plate and explore its effect on vertical bone regeneration. Methods: A total of 8 patients with severe vertical bone defects in the edentulous area who wanted to be treated with implants were included in this study. A digitally modified and guided bone regeneration technique supported by a nonabsorbable titanium plate (fence technique) was used for bone augmentation. The patient's jaw, dentition, and soft tissue data were obtained for prosthetically guided implantation and bone regeneration. After virtual bone augmentation, a model of the jaw was obtained through 3D printing technology, and the titanium plate was bent accordingly. The virtual design was transformed through the template (including the base template and the attachment of a periosteal screw and bone block), so the actual osteogenesis space consistent with the design could be realized in the operation. Guided bone regeneration was performed according to the improved procedure and technical process. After 6 ~ 8 months of bone augmentation, cone beam CT was taken to evaluate the effect of bone augmentation. The implant was implanted according to the initial implant design, and bone tissue was obtained for HE and Masson staining. Results: After 6 ~ 8 months of bone augmentation, the vertical linear bone increment reached (5.44 ± 1.73) mm. The implant was implanted according to the initial implant design, and the bone tissue was obtained for histological examination to show the formation of new bone. Conclusion Digital improved fence technique can simplify the preoperative and surgical procedures, and obtain good vertical bone augmentation results. In short, it is a kind of vertical bone augmentation technique worth popularizing and applying.
