BACKGROUND:The biological function of human periodontal ligament stem cells is a hot area of research in the treatment of periodontal disease. Human periodontal ligament cells are one of the end cells derived from human periodontal ligament stem cells;meanwhile, it can also provide supports to the development of human periodontal ligament stem cells. However, few studies are reported about the difference of biological characteristics between human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells. OBJECTIVE:To compare the differences of biological characteristics between human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells. METHODS:The human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells were isolated and purified using tissue explant method and cellclone method, respectively, and then were observed under light microscope to compare the differences of morphology. cellproliferation curves of human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells were drawn respectively with cellcounting kit 8 assay. Flow cytometry analysis was used to detect their cellcircles and their surface markers expressions. The alkaline phosphatase gene, proliferating cellnuclear antigen gene and Scleraxis gene of human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells were detected by Real-time PCR assay.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells showed a notable difference in morphology under the light microscope observation. During the first 5 days, the cellproliferation curve of human periodontal ligament stem cells was lower than that of human periodontal ligament cells, but 5 days later, the curve of human periodontal ligament stem cells was significantly higher than that of human periodontal ligament cells. The cellcircles of human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells were 41.1%and 23.9%, respectively. The surface markers of human periodontal ligament stem cells and human periodontal ligament cells were similar, but their expression rates had significant difference. The expressions of alkaline phosphatase gene, proliferating cellnuclear antigen gene and Scleraxis gene of human periodontal ligament stem cells were significantly higher than those of human periodontal ligament cells. The above results suggest that human periodontal ligament stem cells have much stronger potential ability than human periodontal ligament cells in osteogensis and cellproliferation.

In order to screen EGFR-regulated secreted proteins in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC), and to reveal the role and mechanism of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) in the pathogenesis of NPC. NPC cell line CNE2 cells were cultured in serum-free medium and stimulated by transforming growth factor-? (TGF-?) for 24 h in experimental group. Control CNE2 cells were cultured at the same condition but without TGF-? stimulation. The culture medium of control and experimental cells was desalted and concentrated through ultrafiltration to prepared the total secreted proteins. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) was used to separate the secreted proteins of control and experimental cells, PDQuest software was applied to analyze 2-DE images, and the differential protein spots between the control and experimental cells were identified by desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The 2-DE patterns of the secreted proteins of TGF-? stimulated and un-stimulated CNE2 cells were established, 22 differential proteins spots between the two groups of cells were found, and 8 non-redundant proteins were identified with MALDI-TOF-MS, the functions of which were involved in invasion, metastasis, apoptosis and proliferation of cancer cells. The data will be valuable for further to study the role and mechanism of EGFR in the pathogenesis of NPC.

Objective:To investigate the optic nerve subarachnoid space area (ONSSA) in patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and its correlation with related factors.Methods:Fifty-three patients with NTG (Group A) and 46 patients with POAG (Group B) were selected from January 2016 to May 2019 in Gaozhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Guangdong Province. None of them received any treatment. Another 40 patients with health examination (Group C) were selected. Body mass index, blood pressure, 24-hour intraocular pressure, visual field damage, visual axis length and central corneal thickness were measured in each group. Two-dimensional ultrasound was performed to analyze the difference of ONSSA in the retrobulbar 3 to 7 mm range in each group, and the correlation between ONSSA and clinical related factors was analyzed.Results:The ONSSA in group A was significantly smaller than that in group B and group C: (5.07 ± 0.83) mm 2 vs. (6.19 ± 0.90) and (6.57 ± 1.43) mm 2, the differences were statistically significant ( t = 5.219 and 6.107, P < 0.05). ONSSA in group A was positively correlated with the mean intraocular pressure and maximum intraocular pressure of 24 hours ( r = 0.658 and 0.479, P < 0.05), while ONSSA in group B and C was not correlated with the mean intraocular pressure and maximum intraocular pressure of 24 hours ( P > 0.05). ONSSA was not correlated with age, body mass index, mean arterial pressure, central corneal thickness, visual field damage and visual axis length ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:ONSSA of NTG patients is lower than that of POAG patients and healthy people, and the ONSSA of NTG patients is correlated with the mean intraocular pressure and maximum intraocular of 24 hours.

Differential proteome profiles of human lung squamous carcinoma tissue compared to paired tumor-adjacent normal bronchial epithelial tissue were established and analyzed by means of immobilized pH gradient-based two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). The results showed that well-resolved, reproducible 2-DE patterns of human lung squamous carcinoma and adjacent normal bronchial epithelial tissues were obtained under the condition of 0.75-mg protein-load. The average deviation of spot position was 0.733+/-0.101 mm in IEF direction, and 0.925+/-0.207 mm in SDS-PAGE direction. For tumor tissue, a total of 1241+/-88 spots were detected, 987+/-65 spots were matched with an average matching rate of 79.5%. For control, a total of 1190+/-72 spots were detected, and 875+/-48 spots were matched with an average matching rate of 73.5%. A total of 864+/-34 spots were matched between tumors and controls. Forty-three differential proteins were characterized: some proteins were related to oncogenes, and others involved in the regulation of cell cycle and signal transduction. It is suggested that the differential proteomic approach is valuable for mass identification of differentially expressed proteins involved in lung carcinogenesis. These data will be used to establish human lung cancer proteome database to further study human lung squamous carcinoma.
