The basement membrane (BM) is crucial in regulating the physical and biological activities of esophageal epithelial cells which attach to the underlying BM. In order to simulate the natural construction of BM, we prepared the fibrous scaffolds using biodegradable polylactide (PLA) and silk fibroin (SF) as the materials via electrospinning technology. BM's proteins containing collagen (IV), laminin, entactin and proteoglycan were extracted from porcine esophagus and coated on the eletrospun fibers. Morphology, mechanical strength, biodegradability and cytocompatibility of the coated and uncoated scaffolds were tested and evaluated using scanning electron micrography, mechanical test system, immunofluorescence assay and western blotting with CK14 as the primary antibody. The fibrous scaffold PLA or PLA/SF, generated from the present protocol had good formation and mechanical and biodegradable properties. After coating with BM's proteins, the scaffold could enhance the growth and differentiation of esophageal epithelial cells, which would contribute to remodel and regenerate the tissue engineered epithelium and further contribute to engineer the whole esophagus in future.

BACKGROUND:Polyurethane has good mechanical and physical characteristics and is extensively used in
clinical and experimental studies, but its hydrophobicity and histocompatibility are not ideal, which limits its use in tissue engineering as a biomaterial scaffold to some extents.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the hydrophilicity of polyurethane membrane grafted with silk fibroin and glutin and its compatibility with human hypopharyngeal cel s.
METHODS:The changes in hydrophilicity of polyurethane membrane grafted with silk fibroin and glutin were detected by contact angle measurements. Human hypopharyngeal fibroblasts were cultured in vitro on
polyurethane membrane, silk fibroin-polyurethane membrane, glutin-polyurethane membrane and tissue culture plate. Cel compatibility was compared using cytometry and cel morphology obsevation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Hydrophilicity of silk fibroin-or glutin-polyurethane membranes significantly increased (P<0.01). The hydrophilicity of silk fibroin-polyurethane membrane was higher than that of
glutin-polyurethane membrane (P<0.01). The number of cel s on the tissue culture plate was the most. The number of human hypopharyngeal fibroblasts on the silk fibroin-or glutin-polyurethane membrane was higher
than that on the polyurethane membrane, especial y on the silk fibroin-polyurethane membrane. These suggested that hydrophilicity and cel compatibility of silk fibroin-or glutin-polyurethane membrane were elevated.

0bjective: To establish a three-dimensional finite element model of mandible and study the transverse displacement of proximal segment after Bilateral Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy (BSSRO) with different retrogression amounts during mastication. Methods: DICOM data of a skull model were processed with MIMICS and ANSYS software, reconstructing the 3D model including the teeth and temporomandibular joint in order to simulate BSSRO and evaluate the transverse displacement of proximal segment with different retrogression amounts during mastication. Results: The mean of proximal segment width change were 2.955 mm and 3.490 mm, when retrogression amounts of distal segmentwere 3 mm and 8 mm, respectively.No significant difference between the two groups were found (P=0.131). Meanwhile the displacement color scale of the 3D finite element models showed that the apparent transverse displacement distribution of the proximal segment was measured around the gonial area, decreased from the exterior to the interior. Conclusions The mandibular angle width was significantly expanded right after BSSRO. The masticatory muscle system and single cortical fixation system played an important role in expanding the width of proximal segment. However there was no correlation between the widening effect and retrogression amounts of distal segment of mandible.

Objective:To explore the expression of long-chain noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and myocardial infarction-associated transcription (MIAT) in Leukocyte differentiation antigen (CD)4+T cells in peripheral blood of gastric cancer patients and its value of clinical application.Methods:Peripheral blood CD4+T cells were collected from 124 patients with gastric cancer, 90 benign gastric diseases patients and 80 healthy controls enrolled in Taizhou People′s Hospital from January 2019 to April 2021. The expression levels of MIAT and N6-methyladenosine(m6A) binding to MIAT promoter in CD4+T cells were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-qPCR, respectively. Spearman test was used to analyze the correlation between MIAT and clinicopathological features, as well as between MIAT and regulatory T cell levels. The receivor operating characteristic curve (ROC) of the subjects was used to evaluate the MIAT expression level in the auxiliary diagnostic value of gastric cancer.Results:The relative expression levels of MIAT in the gastric cancer patients, the benign gastric diseases patients, and the healthy controls were 2.849 (2.131, 4.062), 1.511 (0.916, 1.855) and 0.963 (0.729, 1.432), respectively. The difference among the three groups was statistically significant ( H=158.25, P<0.001). The relative expression level of MIAT in the gastric cancer patients was significantly higher than the levels in the benign gastric diseases patients and healthy controls. The difference was statistically significant ( Z=100.63, 145.14, P<0.001). The binding activity of m6A to MIAT promoter in patients with early stage (stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ) and end stage (stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ) gastric cancer was 8.590±1.483 and 4.274±0.425, respectively. The difference was statistically significant ( t=6.255, P=0.002). Furthermore, the binding activity of m6A to MIAT promoter in the gastric cancer patients was significantly lower than that in patients with benign gastric diseases (17.267±3.106) and healthy controls (27.637±3.945) ( t=-7.331,-12.832, P<0.001). The relative expression of MIAT in CD4+T cells in peripheral blood of the gastric cancer patients had no significant difference in age(χ2=0.000, P=1.000), gender(χ2=0.000, P=1.000), CEA (χ2=0.648, P=0.421) and CA199(χ2=1.554, P=0.213), but had significant difference with tumor size expression(χ2=9.443, P<0.01), TNM stage(χ2=23.571, P=0.002) and lymph node metastasis (χ2=45.248, P<0.01). In addition, there was a significant positive correlation between the relative expression of MIAT in CD4+T cells and Treg level ( r2=0.76, P<0.001). The diagnostic efficacies of MIAT in CD4+T cells, CEA and CA199 in the gastric cancer patients were analyzed by ROC curve. When compared with patients with benign gastric diseases, the areas under the curve were 0.879, 0.635 and 0.611, respectively. When compared with healthy patients, the areas under the curve were 0.953, 0.784 and 0.598, respectively. Conclusions:The level of MIAT in CD4+T cells in peripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer is significantly higher than the levels in patients with benign gastric diseases and the healthy controls, which may be related with the decreased activity of m6A binding to the promoter of MIAT. The level of MIAT in CD4+T cells may be a relevant biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer.
