1.Clinical application and research progress of skull repair materials
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(10):-
The performance and clinical application of the skull repair materials differ depending on their variety. Organic glass has ever been widely applied, but its biocompatibility is poor with the high infection rate of subcutaneous effusion; Bone cement is good at histocompatibility but bad at absorption, thus can be only used for parts of skull repair; Medical silica gel polyester grid is cheap and effective, however, local infection and material's expose occur, leading to unsatisfactory appearance; Titanium and Titanium-alloy, as one kind of high polymer materials, have achieved widely application on the clinical practice for repairing skull defects due to their good biocompatibility and physicochemical property, but many shortages are also observed. With the development of the society, patients require more and more, some insufficient materials for the repair have been abandoned, and the materials for repairing skull defects should be selected according to the individual condition. In this paper, various materials of the skull repair were compared concerning the property and clinical application, to search an optimal material for the skull repair, with the good biocompatibility and good clinical efficiency.

3.Research progress of a new therapeutic target in hepatocellular carcinoma glypican-3
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2016;32(11):1486-1489
Glypican-3 ( GPC3 ) plays very important role in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation in hepatocellular car-cinoma ( HCC ) . GPC3 is closely related to the occurrence and development of HCC. A dramatic elevation of GPC3 expression has been reported in a large proportion of HCC, which suggests that GPC3 is remarkably sensitive and specific to the diagnosis of HCC. GPC3 is a potential therapeutic target of HCC. This paper reviews the structure and function of GPC3, the progress of im-munotherapy based on GPC3 of HCC, and discusses the prospect of therapeutic target of liver cancer in the future.

Bioremediation is one of the most effective ways to treat and dispose of chlorinated hydrocarbons, and methanotrophs are potentially useful to do so. Recent studies found that facultative methanotrophs can use compounds containing C-C bond as sources of carbon and energy, thus overcoming the limitation that obligate methanotrophsone uses only C1 compounds for this process. This is a unique metabolic approach that is becoming increasingly attractive in the field of contaminant biodegradation. Here, we summarized the bioremediation of chlorinated hydrocarbons by obligate and facultative methanotrophs. This process involves the degradation of various chlorinated hydrocarbons by diverse strains, including pure cultures and mixed cultures. We also compare the activity expression and catalytic properties of different types of methane monooxygenases in various substrates. We furthermore summarize the kinetic characteristics of the degradation of chlorinated hydrocarbons using the model strain Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b, and outline the degradation and potential of chlorinated hydrocarbons by facultative methanotrophs. Lastly, we discuss current problems and future research directions for degradation of chlorinated hydrocarbons by methanotrophs.

Aim To investigate the apoptosis of human gastric carcinoma AGS cells induced by cecropinXJ. Methods Human gastric carcinoma AGS cells and human normal epithelial cells GES-1 were co-cultured with different concentrations of cecropinXJ ranging from 0. 01 to 1 000 mg·L-1 for 24 h. MTT assay was used to observe the effects of cecropinXJ on the proliferation of AGS cells and GES-1 cells. The ultrastructural changes of the AGS cells were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Hoechst staining was used to de-tect cell apoptosis. The changes of intracellular reac-tive oxygen species ( ROS) and mitochondrial potential were analysed by flow cytometery. The expression of Bax, Bcl-2, caspase-3 and cytochrome C in mRNA level was investigated by qRT-PCR. Western blot was used to determine the protein expression of Bax, Bcl-2, caspase-3 and cytochrome C. Results CecropinXJ significantly suppressed the proliferation of AGS cells in vitro (P<0. 05) in a dose-dependent manner, IC50 =61. 19 mg·L-1 , but had no inhibitive effects on the proliferation of GES-1 cells. After treatment for 24 h, cecropinXJ induced AGS cells nuclear condensation, and increased ROS production, disrupted mitochondri-al integrity. The results of qRT-PCR and Western blot demonstrated cecropinXJ could up-regulate the expres-sion of Bax and down-regulate the expression of Bcl-2 , promote the release of cytochrome C and activate caspase-3. Meanwhile, cecropinXJ promoted caspase-3 activity in a dose-dependent manner, and cell death ratio of AGS cells induced by cecropinXJ was signifi-cantly reduced by caspase-3 and caspase-9 specific in-hibitors treatment. Conclusion CecropinXJ can in-duce apoptosis of AGS cells by downregulating Bcl-2 , upregulating Bax and activating caspase-3 , which may be one of its anti-tumor mechanisms.

Objective To study the expression of TFIIB-related factor 2 (BRF2) in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) and to determine its clinical significance.Methods 80 HCC patients who received ‘curative' hepatectomy at the Qilu Hospital were studied.Immunohistochemistry analysis was performed to examine the expression of BRF2 and CD34 (microvessel density) in tumor tissues,matched paraneoplastic tissues,and normal liver tissues.Statistical methods were performed to analyse the relationships of expressions of BRF2 and CD34 with clinicopathologic factors.Results BRF2 protein was expressed at a high rate of 61.3% in HCC tumor,which was significantly higher than that in normal liver tissues and matched paraneoplastic tissues (31.6%,28.8 %,respectively,P < 0.05).BRF2 was significantly associated with tumor differentiation,number of nodules,tumor encapsulation,TNM stage,and microvessel density.Prognosis of the high expression BRF2 group was poor.The recurrence and metastasis rates in the high expression group were significantly higher than the low expression group (P < 0.05).The survival rate in the high expression group was significantly lower than the low expression group (P < 0.05).Conclusions The expression of BRF2 increased in HCC tissues,and its expression was closely associated with pathological features and prognosis of patients,indicating that it can be used as a predictor in assessing prognosis of patients with HCC.

Objective: To observe influence of sensation of uncertainty in illness on curative effect of two-week rehabilitation program in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: A total of 85 AMI patients recently treated in our hospital were selected continuously. They received two-week rehabilitation program treatment and were assessed by Missals uncertainty in illness scale (MUIS). According to MUIS scores, AMI patients were divided into middle-high score group (74.8~117.4 scores, n=51) and low score group (32~74.7 scores, n=34), and they were compared with 43 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) angina pectoris (CHD control group) received treatment in the same period. Results: Compared with CHD control group, there were significant increase in each dimension score and total score of MUIS [total score (60.61±12.42) scores vs. (78.34±15.20) scores]in AMI patients (P<0.05~0.01). The exercise peak heart rate of MUIS middle-high score group was significantly higher than that of low score group [(137.80±26.49) times/min vs. (126.12±20.51) times/min, P<0.01]. Compared with low score group, there were significant decrease in total scores of activity of daily living (ADL) scale [(84.15±16.38) scores vs. (73.92±14.21) scores] and the 36-item short-form general heath survey [SF-36, (45.22±6.86) scores vs. (37.95±6.43) scores], and significant increase in total score of symptom checklist (SCL)-90 [(138.35±36.47) scores vs. (151.87±42.61) scores], mean days in CCU [(2.53±0.26)d vs. (2.77±0.29)d], mean days on bed [(4.46±0.25)d vs. (5.38±1.22)d], mean hospital day [(20.48±3.16)d vs. (25.37±3.82)d] and mean inpatient fee [(39.1±8.2) thousand RMB vs. (45.7±9.3) thousand RMB] in middle-high score group, P<0.05~0.01. Conclusion: There is significant sensation of uncertainty in illness in patients with acute myocardial infarction, and it makes curative effect of two-week rehabilitation program significantly decrease.
