Oridonin is a deterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescences. It has excellent antitumor effect, whose mechanism is to induce apoptosis of tumor cells by mitochondrial pathway. Signal transduction pathway play an important part in cell proliferation,differentiation,apoptosis and so on. Recent studies suggested that Oridonin may trigger mitochondrial apoptosis pathway by four signal transduction pathways,which were p53, Ras/Raf/ERK, PI3K/Akt and NF-κB pathway. Further investigation on mitochondrial signal transduction pathway would be helpful to clarify the intracellular target and the antitumor molecular mechanism of ORI.

Schwann cells are the seed cells of tissue engineedng in the regeneration of peripheral nerve.so whether we can harvest enough Schwann cells of high purity is very important in the tissue engineering.Culture and purification technology of Schwann cells has been improved day by day.The classical cultural methods include tissue-clump cultural method and enzyme digestion cultural method.On the basis of the classical cultural methods,someone uses new technologies to delete fibroblasts,such as addition of cytosine arabinoside,addition of antimitogenic agents.The latest purified methods include magnetic activated-cells separation,co-culture with three-dimensional scaffolds and laminin-coated wells purified method.The aim of the skills above is to provide enough Schwann cells for the tissue engineering repeir of degenerated peripheral nerves.There are many ways of Schwann cells culture and purification.and we have made a primary progress,but it still needs further studies before the entire achievemenL such as long cycle,low activity in cultured calls,and the instable biological characteristics during passage culture,etc.

BACKGROUND: In recent years, increasing studies focus on digital complete denture. Digital complete denture has many advantages such as reducing patient visit times, saving chairside time, improving manufacturing precision in comparison with traditional complete denture.OBJECTIVE: To review the development of technology and clinical application of digital complete denture,and to analyze the existing insufficiencies.words were CAD/CAM complete dentures, digital complete dentures, rapid prototyping dentures, manufactured dentures, computer dentures, machined dentures, designed dentures, milled dentures, artificial tooth, 3D scanning, 3D printing in English and Chinese, respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Currently, the production of complete denture using digital technology cannot be fully realized. During digital impression, to scan the traditional dental casts is still the mainstream technology for data acquisition technology. Future investigations on scanning the patient alveolar ridge and its surrounding soft tissue directly and digitally recording the jaw relation directly are warranted. To develop 3D-printed artificial teeth and base materials with proper strength, aesthetics, comfort levels as well as 3D printing of the artificial tooth and the base as the final denture will make digital denture technology more mature.

Objective To explore the effect of early intervention on myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) expression of white matterin neonatal rats with cerebral brain injury caused by intrauterine infection. Methods 17 days or 18 days pregnant Wistar rats were consecutivelyinjected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) intraperitoneally. 100 neonatal rats born from LPS group were randomly divided into interventiongroup and non-intervention group with 50 in each group. Another 10 pregnant rats were injected with normal saline, 50 neonatal rats born from the the normal saline group were taken as control group. The intervention group received early intervention and rehabilitationtraining. All the groups underwent hanging test and modified BBB test on the 14th, 21st and 28th day. 6 rats in each group were tested by immunohistochemicalstaining to observe the MAG expression in white matter on the 1st, 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th day. Results The scores of hangingtest and modified BBB test were significantly higher in the control group than in the LPS group (P<0.01), and higher in the interventiongroup than in the non-intervention group (P<0.01). The expression of MAG was higher in LPS group than in the control group (P<0.01), innon-intervention group than in the intervention group (P<0.01). Conclusion Early intervention and rehabilitation training can improve themotor function in rats with brain injury and reduce the expression of MAG.

Objective To investigate the cognition level of clinical nurses to peripheral venous indwelling needles, and provide a reference for nursing administrators to carry out targeted intravenous catheter standardized training operation. Methods By convenience sampling, 129 clinical nurses of the certain grade A class three hospital were selected, and their perception about indwelling intravenous catheter were investigated by using self-designed questionnaire in November 2015. Results 125 questionnaires were effectively rewnered. Average score of 125 nurses′cognition to indwelling intravenous catheter was (57.52 ± 10.23) points, pass rate was 65.6%(82/125), and influencing factors were education background, the job tittle, work experience and so on. Conclusions The clinical nurses′assessment, cognition and knowledge master to indwelling intravenous catheter is not ideal, lacking a comprehensive clinical peripheral venous catheter assessment tools. Clinical nurse managers should focus on strengthening vein management, reasonable and better trained clinical nurse intravenous catheter cognitive level, so as to ensure that the effect of catheter using.
