OBJECTIVEThis study aimed to explore the effect of the up-regulation of Notch1 on osteoclastogenesis induced to osteoclasts by receptor activator for nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony-stimulating factors (MCSF) in vitro.
METHODSThe bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) of Rosa(-notch1) mice were cultured and induced to osteoclasts by RANKL and MCSF. The BMSCs were transfected with the Ad-Cre-green fluorescent protein (GFP) virus or Ad-GFP virus. Total RNA from cells was extracted, and the gene expression levels of Notch1, Notch2, Notch3, Notch4, Deltal, Delta3, Delta4, Jagged1, Hes1, and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) were detected at the defined stage by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Osteoclast formation was analyzed by TRAP assay.
RESULTSThe number of TRAP-positive multinuclear cells of the experimental group significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. The mRNA expression levels of Notch1, Notch3, Jagged1, Delta3, and Hesl of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group, whereas the TRAP mRNA expression of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONUp-regulation of Notch1 inhibit osteoclastogenesis of BMSCs induced by RANKL and MCSF in vitro.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effect of the oral-appliance in the treatment of ED induced by obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).
METHODSThis study included 40 cases of OSAHS-induced ED. Based on the apnea-hyponea index (AHI) and lowest SaO2, we divided the patients into groups A (AHI < or = 30/h and lowest SaO2 > or = 80%) and B (AHI > 30/h and lowest SaO2 < 80%), and treated them with the oral-appliance for 3 months, followed by evaluation of the therapeutic effect using polysomnography, IIEF-5 questionnaire and Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) diaries.
RESULTSThirty-seven of the patients accomplished the treatment, 16 in group A and 21 in group B. Compared with the baseline, the AHI was significantly decreased in both groups A (21.4 +/- 7.3 vs 14.2 +/- 6.6, P < 0.05) and B (51.4 +/- 9.5 vs 29.7 +/- 8.1, P < 0.05) after treatment, the IIEF-5 scores increased, even more remarkably in B than in A (3.36 +/- 2.48 vs 1.12 +/- 1.27, P < 0.05). The positive rates of SEP2 and SEP3 were markedly lower in A than in B (37.5% vs 76.2% and 25.0% vs 61.9%, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONThe oral-appliance can improve the erectile function of OSAHS-induced ED patients, particularly for those with severe OSAHS.

Objective To investigate the level change of interleukin-4(IL-4) and IL-12, and their effect on airway inflammation in rat asthma. Methods Rat model of asthma was set up by ovalbumin sensitization. Total cell count and eosinophil count in branchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) were performed, and levels of IL-4 and IL-12 in BALF were measured by ELISA. Results After ovalbumin sensitization, airway occurred obvious inflammation. Eosinophil count began increasing at 1 hour after sensitization, obviously increased at 8 hours, reached a maximum at 24 hours, started declining at 96 hours, and decreased to near normal range at 7 to 14 days. The changes of total cell count had the same tendency as eosinophil count changes. The level of IL-4 in BALF elevated at 1h after sensitization, reached a maximun at 8 to 96 hours, and reduced to near normal level at 7 to 14 days. The changes of IL-12 in BALF had the same tendency as IL-4 level changes. Eosinophil count was positively related with IL-4 level(r=0.74,P0.05). There was a close correlation between IL-4/IL-12 ratio and eosinophil count (r=0.85,P
