Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(36):-
From March 2004 to June 2007, the effect of the 32 Endopore implants which were placed in 25 patients with the inadequate alveolar jaw bone treated in the Implant Center of Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, the Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Anhui Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with Endopore implants of 5 mm ? 7 mm without any bone grafts simultaneously. Second-stage restoration was conducted 3-6 months later. Regular follow-up was between 1 and 4 years. All of the 32 implants gained osseointegration and were restored. During the follow-up, no implant loosed or lost. No inflammation was observed in the soft tissue around the implants. All the patients were satisfied with the final prostheses. With the unique root surface of porous microscopic titanium particle and the shorter design, Endopore implants can be used in the posterior area of inadequate alveolar jaw bone. They could improve the indication of the dental implant.

Objectives To observe the effect of amphiregulin (Areg) via lateral ventricle injection on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats and to investigate its possible mechanism. Methods A total of 96 3-month old health specified pathogen free SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=16 in each group):sham operation group (sham group),only exposure of common carotid artery and bifurcation;I/R group,making I/R model;solvent control group,lateral ventricle injection of standard protein solution(5 μl);Areg group,lateral ventricle injection of Areg(2 μg/5 μl);AG1478 group [AG1478,a blocker of Areg receptor epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR),lateral ventricle injection of AG1478 (2.5 μg/5 μl);Areg combined AG1478 (AAG) group,lateral ventricle giving AG1478 (2.5 μg/5 μl),and then giving Areg (2 μg/5 μl) after 30 mm.The model of focal cerebral I/R injury was induced after 30 min administration of the above last 4 groups.After 24 h of reperfusion,the volume of cerebral infarction, the neurobehavioral score and the number of apoptotic cells in the brain tissue were compared among the groups. After 6 h of reperfusion,the phosphorylation levels of EGFR and protein kinase B(Akt)in ischemic brain tissue were detected. Results Compared with the sham group,the cerebral infarction volume and the number of apoptotic cells in brain tissue were increased significantly,while the neurobehavioral score was decreased(all P<0.05).Compared with the I/R group,the volume of cerebral infarction,the number of apoptotic cells in the brain tissue were decreased significantly,and the neurobehavioral score was increased in the Areg group,the levels of EGFR and Akt phosphorylation were significantly higher (all P <0. 05). Compared with the I/R group,the volume of cerebral infarction and the number of apoptotic cells of the AG1478 group were increased,the levels of EGFR and Akt phosphorylation were decreased(all P<0.05);Compared with the Areg group,the volume of cerebral infarction and the number of apoptotic cells of the AAG group and AG1478 group were increased significantly,and the levels of EGFR and Akt phosphorylation were decreased significantly(all P<0.05). Conclusions Areg reduces the infarct volume in ischemic brain tissue,improves nerve function,and inhibits apoptosis by activating EGFR-Akt signaling pathway. Therefore,it has some protective effect for cerebral I/R injury.

Objective To construct a scientific and rational post competency model of human organ donation coordinators. Methods Based on the onion model, the index pool was initially constructed by literature research and behavioral event interview. The index system was screened, modified and improved using Delphi method. The weight of indexes at all levels was determined by analytic hierarchy process. Results The effective response rates of two rounds of Delphi expert inquiries were both 100%, indicating that the expert opinions were highly dependable. The experts' judgment coefficient (Ca), familiarity (Cs) and authoritative coefficient (Cr) were all above 0.7, indicating that the experts' opinions were highly reliable. The expert coordination coefficients (W) were 0.294 and 0.342 (both P<0.001), indicating that experts delivered coordinated opinions and yielded slight difference in understanding the importance of indexes. Finally, according to the "onion model" theory and experts' opinions, a set of coordinator's post competency model including 6 first-level and 55 second-level indexes was established, which comprised an index surface layer, a middle layer and a core layer. Among them, the core layer represented core professional values, the middle layer was personal quality and professional ethics and quality, and the surface layer was interpersonal communication capability, organizational cooperation capability and professional knowledge and lifelong learning capability. Conclusions The post competency model of organ donation coordinators established in this study consists of 6 first-level and 55 second-level indexes, which is highly effective and reliable.

Objective To investigate the expressions of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer(EMMPRIN),matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9),lysine demethylase 6B(KDM6B)proteins and their correlation with clinicopathologic features in invasive breast cancer,and analyze the correlation among the three proteins and their value in pathological diagnosis of invasive breast cancer.Methods The surgical biopsy specimens of 124 patients with invasive breast cancer who were admitted to the Department of Pathology,the Fifth Clinical Medical College of Henan University of Chinese Medicine/People's Hospital of Zhengzhou from January 2014 to December 2017 were selected as research subjects,and 20 low-grade intraductal carcinoma tissue specimens,27 high-grade intraductal carcinoma tissue specimens,and 22 adjacent tissue specimens>1 cm away from the invasive breast cancer were selected as controls.The expressions of EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B proteins in cancer-adjacent tissues,low-grade intraductal carcinoma tissues,high-grade intraductal carcinoma tissues and invasive breast cancer tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry.The relationship between the relative expressions of EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B proteins and clinicopathologic features of invasive breast cancer was analyzed,Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation of EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B proteins in breast cancer tissues,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was adopted to evaluate the diagnostic value of EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B for invasive breast cancer.Results The relative expressions of EMMPRIN and MMP-9 proteins in high-grade intraductal carcinoma and invasive breast cancer tissues were significantly higher those in cancer-adjacent tissues and low-grade intraductal carcinoma tissues,and the relative expression of KDM6B protein was significantly lower than those in cancer-adjacent tissues and low-grade intraductal carcinoma tissues(P<0.05);the relative expressions of EMMPRIN and MMP-9 proteins in invasive breast cancer tissues were significantly higher those in high-grade intraductal carcinoma tissues,and the relative expression of KDM6B protein was significantly lower than that in high-grade intraductal carcinoma tissues(P<0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the relative expressions of EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B proteins between cancer-adjacent tissues and low-grade intraductal carcinoma tissues(P>0.05).The relative expressions of EMMPRIN and KDM6B proteins were not related to the age,tumor location and tumor diameter of patients with invasive breast cancer(P>0.05),and the relative expression of MMP-9 protein was not related to the age and tumor location of patients with invasive breast cancer(P>0.05).Relative expressions of EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B proteins were correlated with WHO grading,lymph node metastasis,and tumor,node and metastasis(TNM)staging of invasive breast cancer(P<0.05),and the relative expression of MMP-9 protein was correlated with the tumor diameter(P<0.05).In the WHO grades Ⅰ,Ⅱ,and Ⅲ of invasive breast cancer,the relative expressions of EMMPRIN and MMP-9 proteins increased sequentially,while the relative expression of KDM6B protein decreased sequentially(P<0.05);the relative expressions of EMMPRIN and MMP-9 proteins in the lymph node metastasis group were significantly higher than those in the non-lymph node metastasis group,and the relative expression of KDM6B protein was significantly lower than that in the non-lymph node metastasis group(P<0.05);the relative expressions of EMMPRIN and MMP-9 proteins in TNM stages Ⅲ-Ⅳ were significantly higher than those in stages Ⅰ-Ⅱ(P<0.05),while the relative expression of KDM6B protein was significantly lower than that in stages Ⅰ-Ⅱ(P<0.05).In the group of invasive breast cancer with diameter≤2 cm,2 to 5 cm,and>5 cm,the relative expression of MMP-9 protein increased sequentially(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the expression of EMMPRIN was positively correlated with MMP-9 protein in invasive breast cancer tissues(r=0.990,P=0.000),the expression of EMMPRIN was negatively correlated with KDM6B protein(r=-0.606,P=0.000),and the expression of MMP-9 was negatively correlated with KDM6B protein(r=-0.612,P=0.000).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of EMMPRIN protein for diagnosing invasive breast cancer was 0.875[95%confidence interval(CI):0.823-0.926,P<0.05],with an optimal threshold of 10.043,sensitivity of 79.0%,and specificity of 76.8%;the AUC of MMP-9 protein in diagnosing invasive breast cancer was 0.863(95%CI:0.808-0.917,P<0.05),with an optimal threshold of 10.070,sensitivity of 74.2%,and specificity of 76.8%;the AUC of KDM6B protein in diagnosing invasive breast cancer was 0.267(95%CI:0.196-0.338,P<0.05),with an optimal threshold of 11.003,sensitivity of 71.0%,and specificity of 98.6%.Conclusion EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B are related to the occurrence and development of invasive breast cancer.Detection of the expressions of EMMPRIN,MMP-9 and KDM6B is helpful to the pathological diagnosis of invasive breast cancer and clinical judgment of invasion and metastasis of breast cancer.
