Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 1985;0(06):-
Objective:To investigate whether celecoxib(CXB), a specific COX-2 inhibitor,can inhibit the proliferation of cyst lining epithelial cells through blocking mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) signal transduction pathway.Methods: Primarily cultured cells were treated with different concentrations of CXB(0,2.5?10~(-6),5?10~(-6),1?10~(-5),2?10~(-5),3?10~(-5),4?10~(-5),5?10~(-5)mol/L) and the proliferative status was evaluated by BrdU assay.The levels of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA);the production of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) and phosphoMAPK were measured by real-time reverse transcription-PCR assay;and the expression of PCNA,MAPK and phospho-MAPK protein was detected by Western blotting.Results: BrdU assay revealed that CXB inhibited cell growth in a concentration-dependent manner;the maximum inhibition rate([63.9?1.2]%) was found when cells were treated with 2?10~(-5) mol/L CXB for 24 h.VEGF secretion by cyst lining epithelial cell was reduced by CXB in a concentration and time-dependent manner.The mRNA and protein levels of PCNA,phospho-MAPK in CXBtreated group were lower than those in control group(with no CXB treatment).Conclusion: CXB can obviously inhibit the proliferation of cyst lining epithelial cell and the secretion of VEGF,which might be through interfering with the phosphorylation of MAPK and partly blocking MAPK signal transduction pathway.

3.Effects of transcranial and trans-spinal low frequency magnetic stimulation on the expression of growth associated protein-43 after spinal cord injury
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2012;34(8):565-569
Objective To compare the effects of transcranial and trans-spinal low frequency magnetic stimulation (MS) on the expression of growth-associated protein-43 (GAP-43) in the spinal neurons of rats after spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods Forty-five Sprague-Dawley female rats were divided randomly into a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) group,a trans-spinal cord magnetic stimulation group and a model control group with 15 in each group.Another 6 rats served as a normal control group.Spinal cord injury at the T9-10 level was modeled according to the modified Allen's method.The rats in the two MS groups received magnetic stimulation at 0.5 Hz and 75% of the maximum output intensity ( 1.9 T) of the magnetic stimulator beginning 24 h post injury.They received 30 pulses daily for 28 days while the rats in the model control group were not exposed to MS.Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) scale scores and motion evoked potentials (MEPs) were measured at the 1st,7th,14th,21 st and 28th day post injury.The expression of GAP-43 protein was studied using immunohistochemical methods and semi-quantified by Western blotting. Results At the 4th week post injury the average BBB scores in the model control group,the TMS group and the trans-spinal cord magnetic stimulation group were all significantly different. MEP amplitudes decreased significantly in all groups after the injury,and the latency was prolonged,but there were no significant differences among groups at any time point.GAP-43 expression also increased after SCI,and it was significantly higher in the MS groups than in the model control group at 4 weeks. Moreover,the expression of GAP-43 in the trans-spinal cord MS group was significantly greater than in the TMS group.Conclusion Magnetic stimulation can promote nerve regeneration and improve locomotor recovery after spinal cord injury,at least in rats.The effect of trans-spinal cord magnetic stimulation is superior to that of TMS.The mechanism may be related to the activation of central pattern generators.
4.Therapeutic Observation of Moxa Smoke Fumigation in Healing Wounds and Releasing Pain After Perianal Abscess Surgery
Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2017;36(4):423-426
Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy of moxa smoke fumigation in promoting the wounds healing and improving the pain at dressing changes after perianal abscess surgery.Method A hundred eligible patients with perianal abscess were divided into a treatment group and a control group by the random number table, 50 cases in each group. The subjects all received dressing change from nurses of the Anorectal Department. In addition, the treatment group received moxa smoke fumigation at wounds for 30 min and the control group received microwave radiation at wounds for 30 min, both after dressing change, for a total of 14 times. The wounds-healed time, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores on the day 1, 2, 3, 7, and 14 after the surgery, and Verbal Rating Scale (VRS) scores of the two groups were observed.ResultPatients in the treatment group took significantly shorter time to heal the wounds compared to those in the control group (P<0.05); the VAS score on the first day after the surgery in the treatment group was insignificantly different from that in the control group (P>0.05), while the scores in the treatment group on day 2, 3, 7 and 14 were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05); the VRS scores on day 1, 2, 3, 7, and 14 in the treatmentgroup were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Moxa smoke fumigation can promote the healing of the wounds after perianal abscess surgery, reduce the pain brought by dressing change, and this analgesic effect is consistent.

8.Occlusion on implants---Is there a problem?
Journal of Practical Stomatology 2015;(2):266-277
Oral rehabilitation restores form and function and impacts on general health.Teeth provide a discriminating sense of touch and directional specificity for occlusal perception,management of food with mastication and swallowing,and awareness of its texture and hard-ness.Peripheral feedback for control of jaw muscles includes the enamel-dentine-pulp complex and mechanoreceptors in the periodontal tis-sues.The implications of feedback from periodontal and other intra-oral mechanoreceptors as well as changes in central representation are significant for function and adaptation to oral rehabilitation.With implants,in the absence of the periodontium and periodontal mechanore-ceptor feedback,fine motor control of mastication is reduced,but patients are still able to function adequately.Further,there is no signifi-cant difference in function with full-arch fixed prostheses on teeth in comparison with implants.Predictable implant outcomes depend on bone support.Optimum restoration design appears to be significant for bone remodelling and bone strains around implants with occlusal loading. Finite element analysis data confirmed load concentrations at the coronal bone around the upper section of the implant where bone loss is com-monly observed clinically.Load concentration increased with steeper cusp inclination and broader occlusal table and decreased with central fossa loading and narrower occlusal table size.It is recommended that occlusal design should follow a narrow occlusal table,with central fossa loading in intercuspal contact and low cusp inclination to minimise lateral loading in function and parafunction.Acknowledging these features should address potential problems associated with the occlusion in implant therapy.
