Bioceramics, because of their advantages such as biocompatibility and osteoconduction, have been widely used for bone repairing and bone substitute as bone tissue engineering materials. This study primarily compares the characteristics and the application range of some kinds of bioactive ceramics and biodegradable ceramics, and introduces their latest development in degradability and strength et al. Among these materials, calcium polyphosphate is a new material as bone tissue engineering scaffold. With a controllable degradation rate and the required strength, it has been paid much attention.

· AIM: To observe the effects of PTEN and the tumor suppressor gene in proliferative LECs of the rabbit.·METHODS:Forty-two white rabbits were randomly divided into test group (36 rabbits) and control group (6rabbits). The transparent lenses of treated rabbits were operated with extra capsular cortex extraction, and the controls were kept untouched. The rabbits were sacririced at 1d, 3d, 1wk, 2wK, 1mo and 2mo after surgery.Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect proliferative cellular nuclei antigen (PCNA) as well as hybridization in situ and reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR) were applied to detect phosphatase as well as tensin homology deleted on chromosome 10(PTEN) mRNA in lens equartor.·RESULTS:PCNA expression increased significantly to a high level at 1wk, began to reduce 2wk later, and recovered to the normal level 1 or 2mo after the surgery.PTEN mRNA expressed positively in normal rabbit LECs.The relative PTEN mRNA contents reduced greatly at 1dafter operation and remained low level at 3d. It began to increase slightly at 1wk, kept rising at 2wk and regained the normal expression after 1 or 2mo. There was inverse correlation between the PTEN mRNA and PCNA expression.·CONCLUSION: PTEN mRNA expresses positively in normal rabbit LECs plasma. PTEN participates in LECs proliferation and correlates with lens proliferative conditions.

Objective To explore the value of characteristic manifestation of diffusion-weighted images at 3.0T MR system in cer-ebral disease.Methods 120 patients with cerebral disease diagnosed by MR diffusion-weighted images (fat suppression effect,T2 blackout effect,T2 shine-through effect,T2 washout effect)underwent routine MR scan,including echo planar imaging-diffusion weighted imaging (EPI-DWI)and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)map,whose characteristic manifestations of DWI were retro-spectively analyzed.Results 1 5 cases of lipoma and 8 cases without fat lesions were diagnosed with fat suppression effect.13 cases of acute cerebral hematoma,1 1 cases of hemorrhagic cerebral infarction and 1 6 cases of micro bleeding of missed diagnosis or small cavernous hemangioma were diagnosed with T2 blackout effect.1 5 cases of epidermoid cyst,5 cases of choroid plexus cyst were di-agnosed with T2 shine-through effect.1 5 cases of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome and 22 cases of brain tumor were di-agnosed with T2 washout effect.Conclusion Comprehensive use of the characteristic manifestation of EPI-DWI and ADC map can help the diagnosis of cerebral disease.

OBJECTIVEThis longitudinal study aimed to investigate the caries status of primary and permanent teeth among 6-year-old children in Sichuan Province from 2010 to 2012.

METHODSA sample that comprised 652 6-year-old children from six different elementary schools (three represented the urban areas, and the other three represented the rural areas) were examined according to a baseline, with follow-up examinations at 1, 2, and 3 years. Eruption and caries experience were re- corded using World Health Organization criteria.

RESULTSThe prevalence rates of primary tooth caries of 6-year-old children in Sichuan Province for 3 years were 74.23% (484/652), 75.61% (493/652), and 81.90% (534/652). The filling rate of the primary teeth was 5.87% (145/2,471) in 2012, with significant differences (P < 0.01) between the urban areas [10.84% (133/ 1,227)] and rural areas [0.96% (12/1,244)]. The total pit and fissure rate of the first molar was 14.11% (92/652) in 2012, with significant differences between the two areas (P < 0.01) [rural: 0.66% (2/303); urban: 25.79% (90/349)].

CONCLUSIONThe pre- valence of caries in the primary and permanent teeth of 6-year-old children was high. An increasing prevalence tendency was observed as the age increased. The prevalence of first molar caries indicated that prevention and control of dental caries should be performed as early as possible.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:In this study, we aim to obtain the induced pluripotent stem cells ( iPSCs) from the patients with sporadic Alzheimer disease ( AD) .METHODS:Three typical Alzheimer’ s patients were chosen, and the epithelial cells were isolated from their urine.We reprogrammed these cells into induced pluripotent stem cells by transfection of 4 factors (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and SV40LT) with the technique of electro-transfection.After getting these iPSCs, we continue to differentiate them into neural cells by a specific method—dual inhibition of Smad signaling.RESULTS: The primary cells from 3 AD patients were successfully reprogrammed to iPSCs, and these patients-derived iPSCs were differentiated into neural cells.There was no significant difference, during iPSCs reprogramming and neural differentiation, between cells from AD patients and normal people.CONCLUSION: The urine cells from AD patients were able to transfer to iPSCs, functional neurons and neurogliocytes.

Objective:To explore the correlation between serum cystatin C (Cys C)content and renal function in aged patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:Clinical data of 237 aged BPH patients were retro-spectively analyzed.According to international prostate symptom score (IPSS),they were divided into mild group (n=25),moderate group (n=67)and severe group (n= 145);another 110 patients without prostatic hyperplasia were enrolled as normal control group in the same period.Levels of serum Cys C,blood urea nitrogen (BUN),ser-um creatinine (Scr),fasting blood glucose (FBG),blood lipids and prostate-specific antigen (PSA)were measured in all groups,and prostate volume (PV)was calculated.Results:Compared with normal control group,PV signifi-cantly rose [(18.94±4.62)ml vs.(40.09±12.72)ml],maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax)significantly reduced [(18.67±4.60)ml/s vs.(9.93±3.54)ml/s],and serum Cys C level significantly increased [(1.03±0.23)mg/L vs.(1.53±0.61)mg/L]in BPH group,P <0.01 all.Subgroup analysis indicated that serum Cys C levels in mild, moderate and severe group [(1.32±0.45)mg/L,(1.42±0.32)mg/L,(1.61 ±0.64)mg/L]were significantly higher than that of normal control group,P <0.01 all;and that of severe group was significantly higher than those of mild group and moderate group (P <0.01 or P <0.05).Pearson correlation analysis indicated that serum Cys C level was positively correlated with of age,SBP,DBP,FBG,BUN,Scr,PV and IPSS (r=0.179~0.580,P <0.05 or P <0.01),and inversely correlated with Qmax (r=-0.243,P <0.05)in BPH patients.Conclusion:Serum Cys C level significantly rise,and related with BPH degree,correlated with renal function in aged BPH patients,which can be used to predict renal function of these patients.

Objective To reveal the genetic relationship among populations of cultivated Coptis chinensis.Methods Twenty four populations of cultivated C.chinensis from different habitats were employed to be analyzed by the approach of sequence-related amplified polymorphism(SRAP).Systematic relationship was constructed based on the UPGMA method by Treeconw software.Results A total of 276 bands were scored,among which 120 were polymorphic bands.The average percentage of polymorphic bands was 43.48%,indicating that the materials in the test have low genetic diversity.Genetic similarity coefficients were changed from 0.877 0 to 0.951 9.By cluster analysis,the geographical distribution was not very obvious,but it was also showed some of the cultivated C.chinensis from the same region were in the same group.Conclusion Different germplasms diversity of cultivated C.chinensis population is lower and genetic background is more single.
