Objective:AFM1-BSA and AFM1-OVA were synthesized and then identified in this experiment.Methods: Using oximation method ,AFM1 was transformed to oxime compounds while the reaction process was monitored via TLC method aiming to identify the compounds.Coupled with carrier protein BSA and OVA respectively , we obtained AFM1-BSA and AFM1-OVA, then identified synthetic antigen via UV spectrophotometry and SDS-PAGE.Antigens were injected into experimental animals , finally obtaining the murine multi-antiserum.Eventually , the multi-antiserums were detected via indirect inhibition ELISA method to judge whether the antigens were effectively or not.Results:After oximation reaction ,the migration distance of oxime compounds in the thin layer plate was shorter.The maximum absorption peak of AFM1-BSA occurred in 274 nm,and was inconsistent with both UV absorption peaks of BSA and AFM 1.The electrophoretic velocity of AFM 1-BSA was less than that of BSA.All the titers of three immunized mice were 1×10-4 approximately;the multi-antiserum from No.3 sample had the best sensitivity ,its IC50 was 359.9 ng/ml.Conclusion:In this study,we obtained AFM1 artificial antigen and murine multi-antiserum of high sensitivity.

BACKGROUND:At present, there are stil differences in the studies of total-etch, self-etch and self-bonding resin cement effect on the coronal microleakage and bonding strength of fiber posts.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the coronal microleakage and the bonding strength of fiber posts treated with three kinds of resin cements.
METHODS:Total y 32 upper incisors were randomly divided into five groups, including three experimental groups and two control groups. After the root canal preparation, three kinds of resin cements (EMBRACE WetBond, LuxaCore, Medental Multi-cure) were used to fiber posts with the bond diameter of 1.4 mm. Stereomicroscope was used to observe the microleakage. Then, the specimens were cut into 2 mm wafer along the axis of tooth, and universal testing machine for push-out test was used to observe the failure mode. In the positive control group, no root canal preparation was done, the root was coated with nail polish, and the crown was directly exposed to the dye. In the negative control group, no root canal preparation was done, the root canal orifice was covered with the resin, the tooth was overal coated with nail polish and then embedded 1 mm below the section.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The microleakage was observed in al the three resin cements, Medental Multi-cure showed the least microleakage and LuxaCore showed the largest microleakage, and there was significantly different among the three kinds of resin cements (P<0.05). The bonding strength of three cements had significant differences (P<0.05), and ranked from high to low:Mdental Multi-cure, LuxaCore, and EMBRACE WetBond. The main fracture modes were binder/fiber post fracture and mixed failure. The results suggest that the total-etch resin cement binds tightly with the dentin, and owns a superiority in the microleakage and bonding property as compared with the self-etch resin cements and self-bonding resin cements.

Objective To explore the relationship among the expression level of MMP?13, AGG and Col?II in the chon?drocytes caused by nutritional deficiencies in rabbits. Methods 30 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into autolo?gous chondrocyte transplantation group (control group, n=10), nutrition block group (surgery group, n=10), and peripheral nutrition block group (sham surgery group, n=10). 4 weeks after treatment, the rabbits were sacrificed for undergoing the observations on general and histological level;real?time PCR assay was employed for testing the expression level of MMP?13, AGG and Col?II;cel?lular apoptosis percentage was observed through TUNEL stain. The relationship among the apoptosis level, cartilage cells histologi?cal Mankin score as well as the expression level of MMP?13, AGG and Col?II were analyzed. Results Based on the Mankin score, there was a statistic difference between surgery group and control group. On the other side, there were no statistic differenc?es between sham surgery group and control group. 4 weeks after treatment, surgery group presented a higher apoptotic percentage compared with control group;this value between sham surgery group and control showed no significant differences. There was an increased mRNA expression level of MMP?13 and a decreased mRNA expression level of AGG and Col?II in surgery group com?pared with control group;no statistic differences of all these values was found between sham surgery group and control group. His?tological Mankin score and apoptotic percentage presented positive correlation (r=0.922, P<0.001), the regression equation:Y=-0.548+0.404X, R2=0.844 (F=157.735, P<0.001); the mRNA expression level of MMP?13 and apoptotic percentage presented positive correlation (r=0.942, P<0.001), the regression equation:Y=0.951+0.116X, R2=0.883 (F=219.054, P<0.001). There was a nega?tive correlation between the mRNA expression level of MMP?13 and the mRNA expression level of AGG as well as Col?II (r=-0.956,-0.945, P<0.001). Conclusion Damage of cartilage cells causes the up?regulation of the MMP?13 expression which could ex?acerbate the degeneration of cells. It could induce the down?regulation of AGG and Col?II mRNA expression, which will cause the extracellular matrix synthesis disorder.

Objective To explore the relationship between plasma homocysteine levels and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPNP). Methods A crossectional analysis was conducted on 227 patients with type 2 diabetes. Peripheral neuropathy was confirmed using electromyography (EMG). The risk factors possibly associated with diabetic neuropathy or plasma homocysteine levels were analyzed in relation to likelihood of occurrence of DPNP. Results Eighty patients with neuropathy and 147 patients without neuropathy were included. Plasma homocysteine levels were significantly higher in patients with diabetic neuropathy [( 12. 6 ± 3.6 ) μmol/ L] than without diabetic neuropathy [( 8. 2 ± 0. 9 ) μmol/L] ( P ＜0. 001 ), and the relationship remained significant after adjusting for duration of diabetes, glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), age, renal status, serum folate acid and vitamin B12, and metformin [OR 1.15( 1.02-1.28 ) ,P ＜ 0. 05]. In addition, per increase of 4. 0 μmol/L plasma homocysteine was closely related to the occurrence of neuropathy after controlling for per unit increase of other confounding factors [OR 1.17(0. 94-1.33), P ＜ 0. 05]. Conclusions Hyperhomocysteinemia was an independent risk factor for the occourence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

BACKGROUND:Microleakage between restoration, tooth structure and bonding agent can cause the entry of bacteria and liquid in the mouth into the gap, thereby damaging the bonding interface between the restoration and tooth tissues, and leading to bond failure. Microleakage detection can directly show whether the closure of the root canal of post and core system is good or bad. The severity of microleakage directly affects the restorative effects of post and core. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of different root canal cleaning methods on the microleakage between the fiber post and root canal dentin. METHODS: Thirty fresh non-caries premolar posts with free root canalin vitro were randomly divided into five groups, and the root canal wal was respectively washed with saline, 5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution+17% ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA)+saline, 3% hydrogen peroxide solution+5.25% sodium hypochlorite+ saline, 3% hydrogen peroxide solution+2% chlorhexidine solution+saline, and 2% chlorhexidine solution+17% EDTA+saline in different groups. Super-bond C&B adhesive agent was used for bonding fiber post, and the microleakage of each sample was observed under stereomicroscope. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The severity of microleakage in the al groups was ranged as folows: saline group > 3% hydrogen peroxide solution+5.25% sodium hypochlorite+saline group > 5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution+17% EDTA+saline and 3% hydrogen peroxide solution+2% chlorhexidine solution+saline groups > 2% chlorhexidine solution+17% EDTA+saline group.
