Objective:To investigate the temporal and spatial distrib ut ions of collagenⅠ and Ⅲ during mouse tooth germ development and their function s during tooth mineralization.Methods:Immunohistochemistry stain ing technique was used to test the expressions of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ during mous e tooth germ development. Results:collagen Ⅲ was positive in or al epithelial cells in bud stage,in oral epithelial cells and in stellate reticu lum cells in cap stage. During bell and differentiation stage,collagen Ⅲ was positive in oral epithelial cells, stellate reticulum cells, dental papilla cell s and dental sac cells. During P2-10 d(crown development stage), collagen Ⅲ was expressed possitively in ameloblasts,enamel matrix,odontoblasts,predentin, dental papilla cells,dental sac cells and pulp tissues. During P10-30 d(toot h root development stage),collagen Ⅲ was strongly positive in Hertwig's epithe lial root sheath, cementum, alveolar bone and periodontal ligament cells apart f rom above mentioned cell types. CollagenⅠ was not expressed in bud stage and wa s positive in oral epithelial cells,stellate reticulum cells in cap stage. Durin g bell and differentiation stage,collagen Ⅰ was positive in oral epithelial ce lls, stellate reticulum cells, dental papilla cells and dental sac cells.After P2 d (crown and root development stage), the distribution and expression of co llagen Ⅰ were similar to those of collagen Ⅲ.Conclusions:Coll agenⅠand Ⅲ are involved in tooth germ and tooth tissue development. But the fu nction of collagenⅢ is more extensive than that of collagenⅠ.

Objective:To prepare and identify a polyclonal antibody againstadam28 gene product.Methods:Theprotein coding region of ADAM28 was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into pMD18-T Vector to produce the newconstruct, pMD18-T-adam28. The cloned ADAM28 segment was cut with two restriction enzymes and theadam28fregment was directed into the prokaryotic expression vector, pGEX-4T-1,to produce the expression vector pGEX-4T-adam28. The recombinant plasmid was transformed intoE. coliDH5?and GST-ADAM28 fusion protein was ob-tained after the inducement by IPTG. The fusion protein was extracted and purified by SDS-PAGE,and the newpro-tein band of 35 300 was isolated as antigen, the antigen was injected into rabbits to produce polyclonal antibody a-gainst ADAM28 product.Results:The expression vector pGEX-4T-adam28 was constructed successfully,and GST-ADAM28 fusion protein was obtained. The rabbit serum containing polyclonal antibody against ADAM28 productwas obtained and the antibody was purified by salting out method. Western blot analysis displayed that the antibodyhad high specificity. ELISA analysis confirmed that the titer for the antibody reached 1∶16 000.Conclusion:Thepolyclonal antibody against ADAM28 product with high titer is successfully prepared,it may be used for further studyof the role and expression of ADAM28 during tooth development.

To investigate the influence of mixing ratios on the hardness,wear resistance and compressive strength of the cements clinically used,Zinc Oxide Eugenol cement,Glass ionomer cements,Zinc Phosphate Cement,and Dual-curing composite cement were mixed at different ratios separately,then made into test pieces.Vickers hardness,wear resistance and compressive strength of these test pieces were measured by related machines.The results showed that vickers hardness,wear resistance and compressive strength of Zinc Oxide Eugenol cement,Glass ionomer cements and Zinc Phosphate Cement reduced with the decrease of powder/liquid ratios.As to Dual-curing composite cement,Vickers hardness,wear resistance and compressive strength decreased with the difference between A/B ratio and 1∶1 increase.Conclusively,mixing ratios could influence the mechanical proprieties of the cements clinical used,so the use of cements should be under the instructions of the product.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of patients with hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) in autoimmune diseases (AID). Methods We collected the data of 11 patients with AID complicated with HPS in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2004 to 2009. The underlying diseases, clinical features, laboratory findings and treatment outcomes were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 11 patients,3 were male,8 were female. Mean age was (30. 7 ± 18. 3) years. The underlying diseases included Still disease ( n = 4 ), systemic lupus erythematosus ( n = 3 ), and rheumatoid arthritis, primary Sj(o)gren's syndrome, Wegener granulomatosis and Crohn disease in each one case. HPS was associated with the onset of AID ( n = 4), active infection alone ( n = 1 ) and both factors ( n = 6 ). HPS was clinically characterized by high fever ( 100% ), hepatosplenomegaly ( 72. 7% ) , lymphadenopathy ( 63.3% ) and central nervous system involvement (36. 3% ). 4 patients presented with disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC) (36. 3% ). Laboratory data mainly manifested with cytopenia ( 100% ), liver dysfunction ( 100% ), hypofibrinogenemia ( 62. 5% ), hypertriglyceridemia ( 81.8% ), serum ferritin ＞ 500 μg/L (100%), low NK-cell activity(80% ) and hemophagocytosis in bone marrow( 100% ). Based on treating underlying infections and use of corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents in combination with intravenous immunoglobulins(IVIG) therapy, 5 patients recovered , 6 patients died. The mortality rate was 54. 5%. DIC were associated with mortality ( r = 0. 69, P = 0. 019 ). Conclusion The episode of HPS always occurs simultaneously with multiple system involvement that was often difficult to distinguish from active AID. The present of DIC on HPS related with poor prognosis and high mortality. Corticosteroids and immunodepressant and IVIG may improve the prognosis of HPS, while anti-infection therapy is very important and necessary for the patients accompany with active infection.

Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy of continuous arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with radiofrequency hyperthermia in the treatment of patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Methods A total of 21 advanced colorectal cancer patients with various distant metastasis were treated by the combined continuous intra arterial infusion chemotherapy and radiofrequency hyperthermia. For the chemotherapy, a dose of 200mg/m 2 surface body area of calcium folinate (CF) was given for 1 to 3 days. 80mg/m 2 of cisplation was infused intravenously for the first day and replaced by etoposide Vp 16, 60mg/m 2 for 1～3days in patients with renal dysfunction. For intra arterial infusion, a dose of 500mg/m 2 5 FU 2 was given for 72 hours. For patients with liver metastases, chemoembolization(ADM 30mg/m 2+MMC 6mg/m 2 mixed with ultra liquefied lipiodol) was carried out. Radiofrequency hyperthermia with a frequency of 41MHz was performed on the second day after chemotherapy. Results Response rates were assessed by CT scan and ultrasonography. The overall response rate of the cases was 66.67%. No serious side effect or complication was found in the course of chemotherapy. Local pain and lipid nodule were occasionally observed in some patients after hyperthermia. Conclusion Continuous intra arterial infusion chemotherapy in combination with radiofrequency hyperthermia is an useful and safe method for the treatment of patients with advanced colorectal cancer.
