OBJECTIVE: To explore the curative effect and origin of antrochoanal polyp (ACP) with various approaches. METHOD: Fifty-seven patients with ACP were included in the study. All the ACP patients were examined by preoperative endoscopy and computer tomographic (CT) scans. The patients were treated by various endoscopic approaches including endoscopic middle meatus antrostomy, inferior meatus antrostomy combined with endoscopic middle meatus antrostomy or endoscopic medial maxillectomy combined with endoscopic middle meatus antrostomy respectively. The relationship between polyp location in middle meatus and lesions in the antrum was explored during the surgery. Pathological examination was carried out and patients were regularly followed up after operation. RESULT: Fifty-seven ACP develops from antral cyst. In 22 cases of endoscopic middle meatus antrostomy, two patients relapsed. In 17 cases of inferior meatus antrostomy combined with endoscopic middle meatus antrostomy, one patients relapsed. In 18 cases of endoscopic medial maxillectomy combined with endoscopic middle meatus antrostomy, no one relapsed. CONCLUSION Our data indicated that the ACP mainly originates in antral cyst, and capsule wall herniates to middle meatus through the antral ostium. ACP are common in unilateral, rare in both sides. The endoscopic approaches of middle meatus antrostomy and inferior meatus antrostomy combined with endoscopic middle meatus antrostomy might guarantee good prognosis. If the cyst is on the anterior wall of maxillary sinus, the approach of endoscopic medial maxillectomy can obtain a better vision and completely remove the lesions.

BACKGROUND:Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) in the synovial lining layer are related to the cell proliferation, invasion, migration and apoptosis as well as bone resorption in rheumatoid arthritis. OBJECTIVE:To compare the migration and invasion abilities of FLS (MH7A) in rheumatoid arthritis and normal FLS (HFLS). METHODS:The capacities of cell migration and invasion were evaluated by Transwell cell migration and invasion assays. The primers of the indicated microRNAs were designed and synthesized, and the expression levels of miRNAs were determined by real-time PCR according to the SYBR?PrimeScript?miRNA RT-PCR Kit instruction. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:MH7A possessed stronger migration and invasion abilities than HFLS. Compared with HFLS, obviously upregulated miR-132, -155, -203, -223 and -124, and significantly downregulated miR-15a, -16, 18a, -19a, -26a and -146a were found in MH7A. These findings suggest that the differentially expressed 11 kinds of rheumatoid arthritis-associated miRNAs participate in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis probably by enhancing the migration and invasion capacities of MH7A.

Objective To investigate the adjuvant effect of dimo-thylidioctyl ammonium bromide (DDA) and/or DDA-BCG polysaccharide nucleic acid( BCG-PSN), which was combined with a Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein AMM ( Ag 8 5 B - MPT64190-198 - Mtb8.4 ) to boost BCG primed immunization. Methods DDA with or without BCG PSN was mixed with the fusion protein AMM to construct the boosting vaccine. Mice were immunized with BCG and then boosted twice with AMM formulated with the adjuvant DDA with or without BCG-PSN. PBS or BCG vaccination without boosting was used as control. The humoral and cell-mediated immune responses were analyzed by ELISA and ELISPOT. Moreover, the protective efficacy of BCG prime-AMM subunit vaccine boosting against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection was analyzed. Results With in vitro stimulation of Ag85B and PPD( purified protein derivative) antigen, the number of IFN-γ secreting cells from the mice boosted twice by AMM/DDA/BCG-PSN and AMM/DDA were higher than BCG and PBS group (P <0.05). The CFU in lungs of mice boosted with AMM/DDA/BCG-PSN was less than that of PBS group(P <0.05), while the CFU of AMM/DDA-boosted mice was less than that of BCG and PBS group(P < 0.05).However, fewer lesions were seen in lungs of mice immunized with BCG alone or BCG-prime-AMM/DDA/BCG-PSN boosting than the other groups. Conclusion DDA is an idea adjuvant for tuberculosis subunit vaccine;BCG-PSN might play a role in alleviating the immunity-mediated pathology.
