Teaching and research section of orthodontics of the Affiliated Hospital of Stomatology of Chongqing Medical University took the lead in carrying out ‘ three early education' Students of stomatology in Chongqing Medical University established ‘ social practice volunteer team' and conducted ‘ three early education' in orthodontic clinic during winter,summer holiday and weekend.This let students of low grades contact with society,clinical practice and scientific research at early stage thus to comprehensively improve their overall quality.Questionnaire for student volunteers of the Affiliated Hospital of Stomatology of Chongqing Medical University showed that ‘ three early education' can effectively improve medical students' comprehensive quality.In the early stages of learning for students of stomatology,we cultivated students' occupation spirit,innovation consciousness,scientific literacy,clinical thinking and teamwork ability by strengthening training of students' social practice ability,communication ability,organization and coordination ability,professional interests,professional senses of belonging,team spirit and moral emotion.We achieved certain results and our experiences are worth extending.

0 05) Conclusion N CTCP had a better visualization of the whole biliary tree than PTC or ERCP in patients with obstructive biliary diseases, and had similar results in identifying obstructive location and nature with that of the direct cholangiopancreatography As one of the noninvasive techniques, N CTCP provided another way to diagnose extrahepatic bile obstructive diseases and was an effective alternative to unsuccessful direct cholangiopancreatography or for those patients who were unsuitable for the direct cholangiopancreatography

Objective To explore the expression of urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 ( UCA1 ) in pancreatic cancer cell lines and its influence on the invasion and metastasis of the pancreatic cancer cells .Methods The expression of UCA1 in pancreatic cancer tissues and paired adjacent normal tissues ( 11 cases ) and 5 pancreatic cancer cell lines was analyzed by real-time PCR.The level of UCA1 in BxPC-3 was knocked down by small interfering RNA . The ability of invasion and migration in vitro of transfected BxPC-3 was detected by Transwell invasion assay and wound healing assay .The protein levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were measured by Western blot experiment .Results The expression level of UCA1 in pancreatic cancer tissues was higher than that in paired adjacent normal tissues , and UCA1 differentially expressed in 5 pancreatic cancer cell lines .Down-regulation of UCA1 by siRNA suppressed the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in BxPC3, and dramatically impaired the ability of invasion and migration of BxPC-3.Conclusions UCA1 is over-expressed in pancreatic cancer , and down-regulation of UCA1 attenuates the capacity of invasion and metastasis in vitro of BxPC-3 by decreasing MMP-2 and MMP-9.

Langerhans cell tumor is a kind of tumor that originates from Langerhans cells (LC) and maintain their specific phenotype profile and ultrastructural features. Based on cell morphology, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural characteristics, Langerhans cell tumor has two main subcategories: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) and Langerhans cell sarcoma (LCS). LCH is a benign clonal proliferative disease of the LC, whereas LCS is an extremely rare neoplastic proliferation of Langerhans cells with overtly malignant cytologic features and spreads aggressively, which is considered to be a high level malignant type of LCH. Both LCH and LCS can involved various tissues and organs and have complex and diverse clinical manifestation, which cause different severity. The diagnosis depends on histopathological morphology and immunohistochemistry; the electron microscopy was used to assists diagnosis when necessary. The treatment includes surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, etc, but lack of generally accepted optimal treatment options currently, individualized treatment is needed. The prognosis of LCH is primarily related to the number of damaged organ, while LCS has a poor overall prognosis as its invasion and rapid progress. This article reviews the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of both LCH and LCS.

Objective To investigate the expression of hypoxia-inducible 1 alpha(HIF-lα)and glucose transporter 1(Glut1)in human breast cancer and its relationship to proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)protein and clinical pathologic factors.Methods Immunohistochemical staining was used to measure the expression of HIF-lα.Glut1 and PCNA in human breast fibroadenoma,usual hyperplasia and breast carcinoma.Results HIF-1α expression was not found in breast fibroadenoma and hyperplastic Iesions.In contrast.the positive rate of HIF-1α was found in the ductal carcinoma in situ 55%(DCIS,11/20)and the invasive breast carcinoma 85%(51/60).Glut1 positivity in breast carcinoma was 58.8%(47/80).The totsl positive rate of PCNA in breast carcinoma was 75%(60/80),that in DCIS was 65%(13/20)and that in invasive carcinoma was 78.3%(47/60).There was a positive correlation between HIF-lα and Glut 1 level (r=0.653,P＜0.01),a positive correlation between HIF-1α and PCNA level(r=0.693,P＜0.01);and also a positive correlation between Glutl and PCNA level(t=0.742.P＜0.01).conclusion The overexpression of HIF-lα and its target gene Glut1 played important roles in carcinogenesis and progression of breast carcinoma and closely correlated with cell proliferation of breast carcinoma and may become a new target for treatment of breast carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the effect of miR-200 a mimic on transforming growth factor β1-mediated acti-vation and collagen secretion of rat pancreatic stellate cells .Methods PSCs were isolated and cultured from pan-creatic tissue and identified by desmin , GFAP and α-SMA immunofluorescence staining .PSCs of 2nd generation were divided into control group , TGF-β1 group, TGF-β1+miR-NC group and TGF-β1+miR-200a mimic group.α-SMA and collagen Ⅰ protein were measured by Western blot and immunofluorescence staining .The mRNA ofα-SMA and collagen Ⅰ and the expression of miR-200a were detected by quantitative real-time PCR.Results TGF-β1 stimulates the activation of PSCs and promote collagen synthesis in time-dependment manner ( P<0.05 ) . After transfection of the mimic , treating with the same concentration of TGF-β1, the expressions of protein and mR-NA of both α-SMA and collagen Ⅰ decreases significantly ( P<0.01 ) .Conclusions Over-expression of miR-200 a significantly attenuates α-SMA activity and further affects the collagen synthesis of TGF-β1-dependent activa-tion of PSCs.The mechanisms are potentially related to the biological effects of TGF-β1.
