Objective To investigate the effect of fluoride on expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in bone tissue of rats. Methods Fourteen SD rats were randomly divided into two groups: control group(tap water with fluoride < 0.06 mg/L), and fluorosis group(fluoride 50 mg/L in water). After 4 moths, expressions of both mRNA and protein of Runx2 in rat bone tissue were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results The results showed that the expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in fluoride-treated bone tissue were 2.287 ± 0.261 and 0.929 ± 0.229, respectively, both of which were significantly higher than those of control group(0.995 ± 0.123,0.317 ± 0.068, t = 11.85,6.78, P < 0.05). Conclusions Fluoride can increase the expression of Runx2 mRNA and protein in bone tissue of rats, and Runx2 may be involved in the pathogenesis of bone injury caused by fluoride.

Objective To investigate the apoptosis induction effect of recombinant caspase-3 expression on osteosarcoma cell line SOSP-9901. Methods Recombinant caspase-3 gene was subcloned into the GFP reporter vector pEGFP-C1 to generate the expression vector pEGFP-caspase-3 by DNA recombinant technique. pEGFP-caspase-3 was transfected into human osteosarcoma cell line SOSP-9901 by Lipofectamine 2000. The expression of recombinant caspase-3 was determined by RT-PCR. The morphological changes of transfected cells were observed under flurescent and electronic microscope. The cell survival rate of transfected cells was assayed by MTT method. Results Recombinant caspase-3 gene could be stably expressed in the transfected SSOP-9901 cells. Recombinant caspase-3 could obviously induce SOSP-9901 apoptosis, and inhibit SSOP-9901 cell proliferation in vitro. Conclusion Recombinant caspase-3 could inhibit the growth of the osteosarcoma cell line SOSP-9901 and induce it into apoptosis.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of muscle stimulating instrument on patients with spasticity of lower limbs after surgical treatment.Methods49 adults with spasticity of lower limbs after surgical treatment were divided into the treatment group (21 cases) and the control group (28 cases). Patients of two groups were treated with routien rehabilitation training, but muscle stimulating instruments treatment was added to patients of the treatment group. The muscle strength and motor ability of patients of two groups were followed up and compared.ResultsThe muscle strength and motor ability of the treatment group were better than that of the control group during follow-up period (P<0.05,P<0.01).ConclusionMuscle stimulating instrument can accelerate the recovery of muscle strength and motor ability in adults with spasticity of lower limbs after surgical treatment.

OBJECTIVE To study the HBV-DNA level and its replication with only HBsAb positive for transplantation. METHODS Serial serum samples were studied with the quantitative determination of HBV-DNA by a quantitative PCR assay and determination of HBsAb by ELISA. RESULTS The positive rate of HBV-DNA was 8.4% in the patients with only HBsAb positive and that was 11.11% in the patients who had not been injected with vaccine;the level of HBV-DNA in 11 samples was less than 10~4 copies/ml and five samples showed the amount between 10~4-10~6 copies/ml.The positive rate of HBV-DNA was 8.4% in the patients with only HBsAb positive and that was 11.11% in the patients who had not been injected with vaccine;the level of HBV-DNA in 11 samples was less than 10~4 copies/ml and five samples showed the level between 10~4-10~6 copies/ml. CONCLUSIONS Patients with only HBsAb positive are still infective,which should be paid attention in transplantation.

AIM:To observe the changes of tear film on the patients after laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASIK) with corneal flap created by femtosecond laser with Oculus corneal topography.
METHODS:Totally 120 myopic patients (240 eyes) were collected who underwent femtosecond laser surgery LASIK from August to September 2013, and these patients can be followed up for 3mo. Tear break-up time ( BUT) and tear meniscus height ( TMH ) with Oculus corneal topography were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively at 1wk;1, 2 and 3mo.
RESULTS: Oculus BUT: there existed obvious differences (P=0. 012, 0. 000, 0. 023<0. 05) in 1wk, 1 and 2mo compared with the preoperative level. While no such obvious difference ( P = 0. 236 > 0. 05 ) existed in 3mo compared with the preoperative level. TMH:there existed obvious differences (P=0. 025, 0. 019, 0. 026<0. 05) in 1wk, 1 and 2mo compared with the preoperative level. No such obvious difference ( P = 0. 375>0. 05 ) existed in 3mo compared with the preoperative level.
CONCLUSION: Femtosecond laser surgery affects the stability of the tear film at a certain time and a certain extent. The mechanism related to many factors. It is temporary and lighted.

AIM: To observe the changes of tear film on the patients after laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASIK ) with corneal flap created by femtosecond laser with the different gender.
METHODS: The 120 myopic patients ( 240 eyes ) who underwent femtosecond laser surgery LASIK from August to September 2013 were collected, and these patients were followed up for 3mo. The patients were divided into two groups according to the gender, group A was male (110 eyes of 55 patients); group B was female (130 eyes of 65 patients). Dry eye symptom score, tear break-up time ( BUT ) , Schirmer Ⅰ test, corneal fluorescein staining were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively in 1wk,1,2,3mo.
RESULTS: Dry eye symptom score: it was statistically significant between two groups after operation in the 1wk, 1, 2mo(P = 0. 000,0. 023, 0. 030). It had no statistical significance between the two groups in 3mo(P=0. 283). BUT: it was statistical significance between two groups after operation in the 1wk, 1, 2, 3mo ( P= 0. 000, 0. 017, 0.026, 0. 032 ). Schirmer Ⅰ test: it was statistically significant between two groups after operation in the 1wk, 1, 2mo(P = 0. 012,0. 024, 0. 018). It had no statistical significance between the two groups in 3mo ( P=0. 206 ) Corneal fluorescein staining:it was statistically significant between two groups after operation in the 1wk, 1, 2, 3mo (P=0. 022,0. 015, 0. 036, 0.041).
CONCLUSION: The influence of tear film after femtosecond laser surgery for men less than that for women.

To observe the changes of tear film on the patients after laser in situ keratomileusis(LASlK)with corneal flap created by femtosecond laser and microkeratome.
●METHODS: Totally 150 patients (300 eyes) with myopia received operation of LASlK. Patients were divided into two groups according to the methods of making corneal flap. The patients of group one were assigned to receiving LASlK with corneal flap creation by lntralase femtosecond laser (190 eyes of 95 patients), group two were assigned to receiving LASlK with corneal flap creation by microkeratome ( 110 eyes of 55 patients ). Dry eye symptom score, tear break-up time (BUT), Schirmer Ⅰtest(Slt), corneal fluorescein staining(FL)were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively at 1wk; 1, 3 and 6mo.
●RESULTS: Dry eye symptom score: there existed obvious differences at 1wk; 1, 3mo between two groups(P<0. 05). While no such obvious differences existed in the 6mo between two groups(P>0. 05). BUT: there existed obvious differences at 1wk, 1, 3mo between two groups(P<0. 05). While no such obvious differences existed at 6mo between two groups(P>0. 05). SchirmerⅠ test: there existed obvious differences in the 1wk, 1, 3mo between two groups(P<0. 05). Whileno such obvious differences existed in the 6mo between 2 groups(P>0. 05). FL: there existed obvious differences in the 1wk, 1, 3mo between two groups(P<0. 05). While no such obvious differences existed in the 6mo between two groups(P>0. 05).
●CONCLUSlON: The early stability of tear film decrease after operation in both of the two groups. The dry eye symptoms are lighter and recover faster.

N-carbamoylase is a part of hydantoinase operon which can transform N-carbamoylamino acid to corresponding ammo acids. The L-N-carbamoylase of Arthrobacter BT801, codied by the HyuC gene, is the rate-limiting and the only stereoselective enzyme. HyuC DNA fragment was amplified by PCR from the plasmid of pUC18-169. The target fragment was introduced into pPIC3. 5K plasmid to construct the pPIC3. 5K-hyuC expressing vector which was then transduced into Pichia pastoris GS115 cells after being linearized by BglⅡ digestion. Multi-copies insertion transformants were screened on G418 plates. The recombinant protein was proved to have biological activity of hydrolyzing N-carbamoylphenylalanine into phenylalanine through enzyme activity determination.
