In this study, the adsorption behavior of epirubicin hydrochloride (EPI) on carboxylated single-walled carbon nanotubes (c-SWNTs) obtained by mixture acid treatment was investigated. The results indicated that the dispersion of c-SWNTs in water was obviously improved. The absorption of EPI on c-SWNTs came to equilibrium after 240 min and could be explained by pseudo-second-order model. Moreover, there were heterogeneous distribution of active sites onto c-SWNTs surface and the Freundlich isotherm model was better fit to describe the absorption precess of EPI on c-SWNTs. The absorption capacity of EPI on c-SWNTs increased obviously with the increasing pH and decreasing temperature. Compared with multi-walled carbon nanotubes, carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes, SWNTs, c-SWNTs possessed higher absorption capacity for EPI. The controlled, targeted and sustained release of EPI from c-SWNTs-EPI could be instructive for the development of nano-carrier.

BACKGROUND: Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) proliferation and transmigration and platelet activation cause thrombogenesis and lead to grafted vessel restenosis. Nitric oxide (NO) can inhibit the above-mentioned biological responses, but whether endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene transfection can inhibit the neointimal hyperplasia in graft seeded with SMCs remains uncertain.OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to further investigate the effect of eNOS gene transfection on neointimal hyperplasia in the grafts seeded with SMCs.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: This study, a repeated observation and measurement experiment, was performed at the Central Laboratory and Laboratory of Molecular Biology of Xi'an Jiaotong University Medical College from April 2006 to May 2007.MATERIALS: One 1-month-old New Zealand rabbit was used to acquire SMCs. Another 18 adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=6).In normal control group,the vessel graft with no SMCs were transplanted; In SMC/lacZ group, the vessel grafts with SMCs transfected with lacZ were transplanted;In SMC/eNOS group,the vessel grafts with SMCs seeded with eNOS were transplanted.METHODS: Rabbit SMCs were transduced with pseudotyped retroviral vectors, Murine leukemia virus/vesicular stomatitis virus G glycoprotein, carrying genes coding for eNOS or lacZ gene. The SMCs then were seeded on the vessel grafts and implanted into the rabbit abdominal aorta using vessel bypass transplantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Nitric oxide (NO) content in the supernatant of cells transfected with eNOS and lacZ gene was detected by citrulline method. The grafts were stained with X-gal to visualize the seeded cells: the seeded SMCs were stained blue,while eNOS were stained red. The thickness of the neointima on a graft was measured with a microscope.RESULTS: Eighteen rabbits were all included in the final analysis. NO content in the SMC/eNOS group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group (P<0.05). The SMCs transfected with lacZ gene showed blue after X-gal staining under the inverted microscope. Thirty days after implantation, there was no difference in neointimal thickness between normal grafts and grafts seeded with eNOS or lacZ transduced SMCs (P>0.05).100 days after implantation,the neointimal thickness on grafts seeded with eNOS transduced SMCs was similar to that of unseeded grafts (P>0.05 ), but was significantly thinner than that on grafts seeded with SMCs transduced with only lacZ gene (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: eNOS gene transfection inhibits nenintimal hyperplasia in the vessel graft seeded with SMCs.

Objective To investigate the effects of RNA interference (RNAi) targeting angiotensinconverting enzyme (ACE) on blood glucose,insulin resistance,as well as oxidative stress in type 2 diabetic rats.Methods Type 2 diabetic rats were divided into diabetes control group (caudal intravenation with control adenovirus named Ad5),gene treatment group (caudal intravenation with recombinant adenoviral vectors named Ad5-ACE-shRNA,expressing ACE gene-specific shRNA),and enalapril group (intragastric administration with enalapril every day).At the same time,the normal blood glucose control group was set up.All rats were injected two times during the experiment period.Blood glucose was measured before and after the intervention.At the third day of the experiment,expressions of ACE mRNA and protein in pancreas were evaluated by RT-PCR and Western blot,and serum concentrations of ACE and Ang Ⅱ were measured by ELISA.By the end of the experiment,insulin sensitivity index was calculated and expressions of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) protein of epididymal adipose tissue and NAD (P) H (p22phox) protein of pancreas were measured.Results Blood glucose levels in the gene treatment group [(17.8 ±1.1) mmol/L] and the enalapril group [(17.9 ± 1.2) mmol/L] were lower than that in the diabetes control group [(24.9 ± 1.3) mmol/L] when the experiment was finished.ACE mRNA and protein expressions in pancreas of the gene treatment group were significantly decreased compared with the diabetes control group (P ＜ 0.05).Serum concentrations of ACE and Ang Ⅱ in the gene treatment group were (16.37 ± 3.01) ng/ml and (18.24 ± 3.69)pg/ml,significantly lower than those of the diabetes control group [(46.67 ± 3.92) ng/ml and (44.93 ± 4.12) pg/ml respectively,both P＜0.05].Insulin sensitivity indexes of the gene treatment group and the enalapril group were (-5.14 ± 0.41) and (-5.17 ± 0.38),being all significantly higher than that of the diabetes control group (-6.18 ±0.46,both P＜0.05).Expressions of GLUT4 protein in epididymal adipose tissue were higher and expressions of p22phox protein in pancreas were lower in the gene treatment group and the enalapril group than those of the diabetes control group (both P＜0.05).Conclusions RNAi targeting ACE gene may delay the progress of hyperglycaemia and improve the situation of insulin resistance and oxidative stress.The RNAi technology may be used as a new strategy of gene therapy for diabetes mellitus.

OBJECTIVEThis longitudinal study aimed to investigate the caries status of primary and permanent teeth among 6-year-old children in Sichuan Province from 2010 to 2012.

METHODSA sample that comprised 652 6-year-old children from six different elementary schools (three represented the urban areas, and the other three represented the rural areas) were examined according to a baseline, with follow-up examinations at 1, 2, and 3 years. Eruption and caries experience were re- corded using World Health Organization criteria.

RESULTSThe prevalence rates of primary tooth caries of 6-year-old children in Sichuan Province for 3 years were 74.23% (484/652), 75.61% (493/652), and 81.90% (534/652). The filling rate of the primary teeth was 5.87% (145/2,471) in 2012, with significant differences (P < 0.01) between the urban areas [10.84% (133/ 1,227)] and rural areas [0.96% (12/1,244)]. The total pit and fissure rate of the first molar was 14.11% (92/652) in 2012, with significant differences between the two areas (P < 0.01) [rural: 0.66% (2/303); urban: 25.79% (90/349)].

CONCLUSIONThe pre- valence of caries in the primary and permanent teeth of 6-year-old children was high. An increasing prevalence tendency was observed as the age increased. The prevalence of first molar caries indicated that prevention and control of dental caries should be performed as early as possible.

BACKGROUND: Natural bilogical bone-derived materials processed with physical and chemical methods possess natural network pore system. They have good cellular compatibility, and help osteoblasts attach and grow on them, and can be used as the scaffolds of osteoblasts.OBJECTIVE: To observe the osteogenetic effect of partially deproteinised decalcified bone (PDDB) as scaffolds of osteoblasts in vivo.DESIGN: A randomized and controlled trial.SETTING: Central Laboratory of the First Hospital of Kunming Medical College.MATERIALS: Partially deproteinised decalcified bone; human embryonic periosteum-derived osteoblasts; twenty 4-week-old BALB/c nude mice,with the body mass of 25 to 28 g, of either gender.METHODS: This experiment was conducted at the Central Laboratory of the First Affiliated Hospital of Kuming Medical College from January to June 2003. PDDB composited with human embryonic periostea-induced osteoblasts were implanted into the nude mice after cultured for 1 week in vivo, 4 scaffolds in each nude mouse. Composite of scalfolds and cells implanted on the left side of the spine was set as experimental side and simple implanted material on the right side of the spine was set as blank control side. Then alkaline phosphatase activity and routine histological examination were performed 4 and 8 weeks after operation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: General observation, alkaline phosphatase activity and routine histological examination were performed after the materials were taken out.RESULTS: Twenty nude mice entered the stage of result analysis. ① General observation of the implanted materials: No necrosis, ecpyesis, or fluidifying was found around the implanted materials, but ingrowth and enwrapption of soft tissues were found. ② Measurement of alkaline phosphatase activity: alkaline phosphatase activity after PDDB composited osteoblasts in vivo was stronger at week 8 than at week 4 [(22.854±6.018) nkat/g vs(11.286±4.268) nkat/g], and was much stronger than that of the simple implanted materials [(1.217±0.083) nkat/g vs (2.717±0.583) nkat/g]. ③ Results of routine histological examination: Cartilage formed at week 4 and part of cartilage formed new bone and marrow cavity at week 8 at the experimental side, cartilage and new bone formed much more as time went by, but there was no any cartilage or bone formation at the control side.CONCLUSION: Cartilage and bone form after PDDB composited with osteoblasts are implanted, and more cartilage and new bone form as time passes. PDDB can be used as the scaffolds of osteoblasts.

Objective To construct pseudotyped retroviral vector MuLV/VSV-G and transfer it into rabbit smooth muscle cells (SMC) in order to provide a high-efficiency vector for SMC gene transfer. Methods We constructed pseudotyped retroviral vector MuLV/VSV-G containing the previously reported gene lacZ, determined the titer, and determined the efficiency of gene transfer into SMC mediated by pseudotyped retroviral vector MuLV/VSV-G.
