Objective:To evaluate the effects of different denture cleansers on the physical and mechanical properties of heat-cured denture base resin.Methods:Heat-curing denture base resin samples were prepared and respectively immersed in Polident,Stera-dent,0.5% sodium hypochlorite solution and distilled water for 60 h.The flexural strength and elastic modulus were measured(n =10)using 3-point bending test in a universal testing machine.A surface analyzer was used to measure the surface roughness of each specimen(n =10).Results:There were no significant differences of flexural strength and elastic modulus among Polident,Steradent and distilled water(P >0.05).The 0.5% sodium hypochlorite treatment produced lower flexural strength and elastic modulus than the other cleaners(P <0.05).No statistical significance of roughness was found among the solutions(P >0.05).Conclusion:Both Poli-dent and Steradent don't affect the physical and mechanical properties of the heat-cured acrylic resin.0.5% sodium hypochlorite solu-tion doesn't affect the surface roughness,but decreases the flexural strength and elastic modulus of the resin.

Objective To investigate the effects of ultrashortwave therapy associated with home-based rehabilitation on lung function and quality of life (QOL) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. Methods Ninety patients with stable COPD were equally and randomly divided into a combination group (received uhrashortwave therapy combined with home-based rehabilitation and regular treatment), a rehabilitation group (received home-based rehabilitation and regular treatment), and a control group ( received regular treatment). Spirometry and diaphragm function were measured, and St George's respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ) was administered for QOL assessment at the beginning and after 6-month of treatment. Results FEVI% pred and FEV1% increased and average SGRQ scores decreased in the combination group and rehabilitation group. FEVI% pred and SGRQ scores improved most in combination group (all P < 0.05 ). FEV1% pred, FEV1 % and SGRQ scores in control group did not show any obvious change. Diaphragm function in all groups did not change significantly. Conclusions Ultra-shortwave therapy combined with home-based rehabilitation might have combinative effects in improving lung function and QOL of COPD patients.

Aim To determine the protective effect of NADPH oxidase against focal cerebral ischemia/reper-fusion ( I/R) injury in rats. Method A thread occlu-sion method was used to make a middle cerebral artery occlusion ( MCAO ) model. Apocynin ( 2. 5 mg · kg-1 ) was injected by tail vein 15 min before ischemi-a. Then, the neurological behavior, cerebral infarction volume, pathological morphological changes and the expression of Cx36, PKC, Bax, Bcl-2 of rats were de-tected after ischemia for 2 h, followed by reperfusion for 24 h. Results Compared with cerebral I/R group, administration of apocynin significantly reduced the neurological behavior scores and the cerebral in-farction volume percentage, alleviated the pathological morphological damage, increased the protein expres-sion of Cx36 and PKC, and reduced the Bax/Bcl-2 ra-tio of rats with focal cerebral I/R injury. Compared with apocynin group , apocynin combined with PKC inhibitor significantly reduced above protective effects. Conclusion Inhibition of NADPH oxidase could alle-viate cerebral I/R injury, increase the levels of Cx36, PKC proteins and reduce the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio.

Objective: To screen the best genetic engineering bacterium for the production of peptide antibiotic hPAB-? and evaluate its fermentation level in bottle. Methods:After analysis of the interest fusion protein expression levels of 8 recombinant bacteria containing 1-8 copies of human peptide antibiotic hPAB-? expressing plasmid respectively,2-5 copies expressing bacteria were chosen for the further study of their bacteria yield,expression forms of the target protein, dissolution of the inclusion bodies and the efficiency of fusion protein purification by affinity chromatography, then the best engineering bacterium with the certain copies of interest peptide expressing plasmid was screened out and its optimal fermentation parameters in bottle were also studied. Results:The recombinant bacterium transformed by 3 copies of interest peptide expressing plasmid was the best candidate for its bacteria yield (3.153 g/L) and fusion protein expression level (27.7%) were the highest among 1-8 copies candidates. The inclusion bodies of 3 copies target fusion protein could be easily dissolved by 8 mol/L urea and captured by Ni-NTA column. The elution of the fusion protein could be directly cleaved to monomer by adding 2 mol/L hydroxylamine, adjusting pH to 9.0 and incubating at 45℃ for 2 h. The optimal fermentation conditions of the selected recombinant bacteria were: culture the organisms with modified M9-CAA media at 37℃ and 160 r/min to (A 600 )≈2.5, then add IPTG to the final concentration 100 ?mol/L to induce the expression of target fusion protein for 5 h. Conclusion:The engineering bacterium containing 3 copies interest peptide recombinant expressing plasmid is the best candidate for the production of peptide antibiotic hPAB-?,and its fermentation parameters are confirmed.

Only a small number of people may develop severe alcoholic liver disease after continuous or excessive drinking, which is different from the harm caused by smoking, and some people may even develop alcoholic liver disease associated with inflammation, liver cirrhosis, or primary liver cancer. There are complex risk factors for liver injury in these people; besides ethnic and genetic factors, drinking volume, and drinking duration, more important factors are involved in the pathophysiological changes of the liver, such as the type and quality of alcohol, drinking pattern, socioeconomic status, and government public policy, which may be the determining factors for the development of alcoholic liver disease. On the basis of literature review, this article proposes the concept that "liquor does not equal to alcohol" , which has important guiding significance for healthy drinking and the prevention of alcoholic liver disease.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effect of propofol against focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats and its relation with gap junction.

METHODSSeventy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, I/R group, low-, moderate-, and high-dose propofol groups (25, 50, 100 mg/kg; P25, P50, P100 groups, respectively), I/R+CBX group and P100+CBX group. Thread occlusion was used to induce middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in the mice for 2 h followed by reperfusion for 24 h. Longa's scores were used to evaluate the neurological behavior of the rats. TTC staining was used to measure the cerebral infarction volume and Western blotting was performed to detect the expressions of Cx43, PKC, Bax, and Bcl-2 in the brain of the rats.

RESULTSCompared with the I/R group, the rats pretreated with moderate and high doses of propofol showed significantly reduced neurological behavior scores and cerebral infarction volume percentage, and the effect was more obvious in high-dose propofol pretreatment group. CBX obviously enhanced the protective effect of propofol against I/R injury. Compared with those in the sham-operated group, the protein expression of Cx43 and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio were increased and the protein expression of PKC was reduced in I/R group, and these changes were significantly reversed by high-dose propofol pretreatment; the effects of propofol were further enhanced by CBX.

CONCLUSIONThe protective effect of propofol against cerebral I/R injury may involve the inhibition of the gap junction via PKC signaling and by reducing the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio.
