Objective: To investigate the regulation of respiratory syncytial virus CTL epitope fused with G protein antigen fragment G1 to the specific immunoresponses. Methods: The recombinant plasmid pET-DsbA-G1 or pET-DsbA-G1F/M2 was transferred into E.coli BL21(DE3) and the fusion protein DsbA-G1F/M2 or DsbA-G1 was expressed.The expressing product was induced and purified by affinity chromatography. The two proteins were used to immunized BALB/c mice i.p, respectively. Serum and spleen cells were collected regularly. RSV-specific CTL responses were measured by MTT, IgG and IgG1 and IgG2a antibodies by ELISA, neutralizing antibodies by plaque reduction assay. Results: The recombinant proteins were expressed successfully and the purity was over 90% after purified by affinity chromatography. The protein DsbA-G1F/M2 induced significant RSV-specific CTL responses, while DsbA-G1 without CTL epitope did not induce detctable CTL responses. Strong IgG antibody responses were elicited,indicated by both. IgG1 and IgG2a titers induced by DsbA-G1F/M2, while only IgG1 was induced by DsbA-G1.The ratio of IgG1/IgG2a was downregulated significantly. Both antigens induced high level of neutralizing antibodies, but the latter was a little lower. Conclusion: DsbA-G1F/M2, the fusion protein of a CTL epitope and G protein fragment G1 can induce both cellular immunity and humoral immunity. The activation of CTLs downregulates the ratio of IgG1/IgG2a.The more balanced immunoresponse is advantageous for improving safety of the candidate vaccine.

Objective To investigate the outcome of the free double-skin paddle string-type composite fibular flap in the reconstruction of the combined defects of ulna and radium. Methods From June 2005 to July 2009, 5 cases with combined defects of ulna and radium were reconstructed using the free double-skin paddle string-type composite fibular flap. The length of fibular segment for the reconstruction of ulnar defect ranges from 4.5 to 7.5 cm. The length of fibular segment for the reconstruction of radial defect ranges from 5.5 to 7.0 cm. The size of the flap varies from 5.0 cm × 3.0 cm to 8.0 cm × 5.5 cm. At the 12 month follow-up, the function of reconstructed forearm was evaluated based upon Enneking scoring system.Results Ten flaps in the 5 cases all survived. The time for the transplanted fibula healed on the radium and ulna was 4-6 months. The 5 patients were followed up from 14 months to 2 years. The forearm rotation functions were excellent in 2 cases, good in 2 cases and poor in 1 case. The eligible rate was 80%. The average Enneking score was 24.8, which indicated an average of 81.3% recovery of limb function. Conclusion Bone graft with blood supply can ensure the activity of osteocytes, which facilitates the fracture union.Whilst, the procedure can reconstruct multi-location and multi-tissue defects in the forearm. Therefore, the double-skin paddle string-type composite fibular flap is an ideal alternative for the reconstruction of the combined defects of ulna and radium and the skin.

Objective To explore the effect of oral local anesthesia injection into the pin-point applied with lidocaine gel to the elderly. Methods 84 cases of the elderly patients which need to receive the oral local anesthesia injection were randomly divided into two groups, each has 42 cases. The experimental group was applied with lidocaine gel on the surface of the pin-point before the oral local anesthesia injection, the control group was injected with local anesthesia directly. The pain level when the elderly was being injected, the change of blood pressure and heart rate before and after the oral local anesthesia injection were compared. Results Between the two groups, Significant differences were found in the pain level and the change of pressure before and after the anesthesia (P< 0.05), while no significant difference was found in heart rate before and after the anesthesia. Conclusions Oral local anesthesia injection into the pin-point applied with lidocaine gel can reduce the injection pain, eliminate the elderly fear and prevent the blood pressure from rising. It is an economic, practical, and convenient method of oral local anesthesia.

Objective To investigate the expression of CXCR4 in cultured human dental pulp cells (HDPC) in vitro and the corresponding ligand SDF-1α level of HDPC supernatants stimulated by lipopolysaccharide(LPS)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and to explore the role of SDF-1αon the proliferation and the migration of HDPC.Methods The expression of CXCR4 in HDPC was detected by immunocytochemistry technique and indirect immunofluorescence technique.The culture supernatants of HDPC were collected after HDPC had been simulated by LPS and TNF-α of difierent concentrations for 48h and then the SDF-1α level was assayed by quantitative sandwich ELISA.Meanwhile,the effects of recombinant human SDF-1α(rhSDF-1α)on the proliferation and the migration of HDPC at different concentrations were observed by MTT and Boyden Chamber Assay.Results CXCR4 was expressed in cytomembrane of HDPC and SDF-1α was secreted into their normal cell supematants with a concentration of(4513.55±962.92)ng/L. The secretion of SDF-1α was both significantly decreased by stimulation with LPS and TNF-α(P<0.05).In addition,rhSDF-1α stimulated the HDPC proliferation at the concentrations of 50,100,200μg/L(P<0.01)and increased the chemotactic migration of HDPC significantly after 9h's incubation with the concentrations of 50,100μg/L(P<0.05).Conclusions SDF-1α accelerated the proliferation and the migration of HDPC which expressed CXCR4.SDF-1-CXCR4 axis may play a role in repair of pulp injury.

ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnostic value of EUS-FNA for pancreatic masses and correlated influential factors. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 101 patients with pancreatic lesions who underwent EUS-FNA from January 2008 to January 2010. The clinical data enrolled 10 factors including patient gender, patient age, lesion location, lesion size, lesion characteristics, negative suction pressure, times of access, real-time cytological diagnosis, type of EUS and operators' experiences.ResultsThe overall diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of EUS-FNA were 85. 1%, 81.1%, 96. 3%, 98. 4% and 65.0%, respectively. Univariable logistic regression analysis indicated that lesion size, lesion characteristics, negative suction pressure, operators' experience were correlated factors of EUS-FNA positive rate, while lesion size was the only correlated factor of EUS-FNA diagnostic accuracy ( OR =1. 984,95 % CI: 1. 141 ~ 3. 451, P =0. 015 ). Every 1 cm the lesion increased, by 1.67 times of opportunity the positive rate became, by 1.83 times of opportunity the accuracy was. The lesion size and lesion characteristics were independent correlated factors of EUS-FNA positive rate (OR=2.012, P=0.000; OR =10.218, P=0. 002). The positive rate of EUS-FNA in solid lesions was 10. 2 times of that in cystic lesions. Lesion size was the independent correlated factors of EUS-FNA diagnostic accuracy (OR =1. 984, P =0. 015 ). ConclusionEUS-FNA can effectively make a pathological diagnosis of pancreatic masses with high diagnostic accuracy and specificity. EUS-FNA diagnostic positive rate and accuracy were both positively correlated with pancreatic lesion size. EUS-FNA positive rate of solid pancreatic lesions is significantly higher than that of cystic lesions.
