302 teeth with wedge-shaped defect in 168 patients were restored by SDR(smart dentin replacement,n =112),glass ionomer (n =98) and light-cured composite resin(n =92) respectively.12 to 15 month follow-up showed the success rate was 96.2％,84.8％ and 86.2％ respectively(P ＜ 0.01).SDR is an ideal material in restoring wedge-shaped defect.

To examine the relationship between the levels of the serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the micrometastasis of peripheral blood in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), 108 NSCLC patients, including 40 patients with benign lung diseases and 30 healthy controls, were investigated. The serum VEGF levels were detected by ELISA and CK19 mRNA in peripheral blood by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). In NSCLC group, the serum VEGF levels and the positive rate of CK19 mRNA in peripheral blood were 479.8+/-268.5 pg/mL and 66.7%, which were significantly higher than those of the other two groups respectively (P<0.01), and both of them were increased significantly with the progression of clinical stage of the tumors (P<0.01). Serum VEGF levels as well as the positive rate of CK19 mRNA in different pathological types of lung cancer had no significant differences (P>0.05). Serum VEGF levels in the patients positive for CK19 mRNA was 561.7+/-325.6 pg/mL. It is significantly higher than that in the negative patients (P<0.01). There existed a significant correlation between serum VEGF levels and expression of CK19 mRNA in peripheral blood in NSCLC patients (P<0.001). The detection of serum VEGF levels and CK19 mRNA in peripheral blood is helpful in judging the condition and the prognosis of NSCLC patients, and serum VEGF levels and CK19 mRNA are independent of the pathological types of lung cancer. The micrometastasis in peripheral blood of NSCLC patients is significantly associated with serum VEGF levels.

Conclusion CT and UU are the main pathogens in female genital tract infection in this region ,and the positive rate of genital tract infection in females aged more than 20 years is higher ,the infection rate of these 3 kinds of pathogens demonstrates the increasing trend year by year ,so more attention should be paid to the detection of CT and UU in this group for guiding the clinicians to con-duct the diagnosis and treatment .

Objective To construct the prokaryotic expression vector of human procalcitonin(PCT) and obtain the highly purified recombinant PCT protein.Methods PCT primers were designed based on the sequence of PCT gene from NCBI,and PCT gene was amplified by PCR.Then,the recombinant vector PCT/pET-22b(+) was constructed and transferred into E.coli BL21 to induce the expression of recombinant PCT protein.Last,the recombinant PCT protein was purified by the nickel column affinity chromatography and identified by Western blot and the colloidal gold method,respectively.Results The results of agarose gel electrophoresis showed that the product of PCR amplification was about 350 bp.The homology comparison analysis revealed that the PCT gene fragment(348 bp) was successfully inserted into pTG19-T vector,and that no any base mutation was found.When the recombinant plasmid of PCT/pET-22b(+) was digested with BamH Ⅰ and HindⅢ,two pieces of about 350 bp and 5 500 bp were obtained.SDS-PAGE showed that the recombinant PCT protein with about 14 000 of Mr was existed in soluble form,and was easily obtained by the nickel column affinity chromatography.Moreover,western blot and the colloidal gold method demonstrated that the recombinant PCT protein was successfully expressed and contained histidine label(His-tag).Conclusion The recombinant vector PCT/pET-22b(+) is successfully constructed by the recombinant DNA technology,and the recombinant PCT fusion protein is successfully obtained by the nickel column affinity chromatography.

Objective To investigate the effect of levetiracetam on benign childhood epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes(BECT) with early-electrical status epilepticus during sleep(ESES).Methods Since June 2010 to June 2013,35 cases of BECT with ESES were treated in our hospital.They were divided into two groups:early-ESES group and ESES group.The seizure rate and spike-wave index in different groups were observed before and after treatment.Intelligence quotient(IQ),response control quotient,attention quotient in different groups were compared before and after treatment.Results The seizure-free rate in earlyESES group was 55.00％,the total effective rate was 85.00％,EEG improvement rate was 60.00％.The seizure-free rate in ESES group was 26.67％,the total effective rate was 73.33％,EEG improvement rate was 46.67％.The seizure-free rate,total effective rate and EEG improvement rate in early-ESES group were higher than that in ESES group,but there were no statistically significant differences between two groups.The cognitive function (verbal IQ:90.29 ± 13.47 vs.83.97 ± 10.20; performance IQ:93.83 ± 11.12 vs.87.03 ± 11.15; full IQ:94.26 ± 10.96 vs.86.71 ± 11.29) and visual attention in both groups (response control quotient:100.77 ± 7.91 vs.87.40 ± 9.68 ; attention quotient:94.66 ± 7.22 vs.79.46 ± 12.52) were significantly improved after treatment(P ＜ 0.05,respectively).Conclusion Levetiracetarn is effective on BECT with ESES and early-ESES,especially on early-ESES.Levetiracetam maybe have a preventive effect on ESES.

AIM: To investigate whether RNA interference (RNAi) induced by small interference RNA (siRNA) could suppress Polo- like kinase- 1 (Plk 1 ) expression and its effects in A549 cells. METHODS: A recombinant plasmid containing siRNA targeting Plk1 ( psiRNA - hH1 - Plk1 ) was transfected into A549 cells with Lipofectamine 2000.Expressions of Plk1, cyclin B1 and p53 protein were detected by Western blotting. Cell proliferation was evaluated by direct cell counting, while cell cycle and apoptosis were examined by flow cytometry, and expression of α - tubulin was detected by immunofluorescence. RESULTS: The results demonstrated that sequence specific siRNA targeting Plk1 was capable of suppressing Plk1 expression, and reflecting in lower kinase activity in A549 cells. The level of Plk1 protein was reduced by at least 70％ after 48 h of psiRNA - hH1 - Plk1 treatment relative to controls. Expressions of cyclin B1 and p53 were increased greatly after Plk1 depletion, and cells showed absence of microtubule polymerization and spindle abnormalities in staining for α -tubulin. Growth inhibition, G2/M arrest and apoptosis were observed in psiRNA -hH1 -Plk1 transfected group. CONCLUSION: All these data suggest that siRNA targeted against human Plk1 may be a valuable tool in cancer therapy.

AlM:To discuss the protective effect ofα-mangostin on retinal light damage in mice.METHODS:Totally 30 Balb/c mice, aged 6~8wk, were randomly divided into the control group, light-exposure group and α-mangostin group. Every group contained 10 mice. Mice of α-mangostin group were treated with alpha-mangostin at the dose of 30mg/( kg · d ) body weight by intragastric administration daily for 7d, and then exposed to white light at the 5th d. The light-exposure group and α-mangostin group were exposed to 5 000 ± 200lx white light-emmiting diodes (LEDs) for continuously 1h to establish the mice model of retinal light damage. Flash -electroretinograme was recorded 72h after light exposure. The changes in retinal morphology of mice were observed by light microscopy. Retinas were extracted to detect the malondialdhyde ( MDA ) content change of the retinal homogenate.RESULTS: Flash-electroretinogram ( F-ERG ) showed that retinal dysfunction was less severe in α-mangostin group than in light-exposure group ( P<0. 05 ). Light microscopy test showed that retina structural damage was less severe in α-mangostin group than in light-exposure group (P<0. 05). The level of MDA in retinal tissue of α-mangostin group was significantly lower when compared with light-exposure group (P<0. 05).CONCLUSlON: α-mangostin inhibits lipid peroxidation induced by light damage and protect retina against light damage.
