Objectives:To study the preparation techniques of gelatin microspheres encapsulated with sodium fluoride and evaluate the anticaries functions in dental plaque model in vitro. Methods:Fluoride gelatin microspheres were prepared by emulsion polymerisation method. The encapsulation rate and drug contents were tested by ISE. In vitro inhibition of demineralization were also examined. Results:The mean size of fluoride GMS was (16.81?8.77)?m.The encapsulation rate was 76.73%.The drug content was 5.61%.The release profile in vitro showed sustained effects. Fluoride GMS can prevent demineralization more efficiently. Conclusions:Fluoride gelatin microspheres may be an promising topical fluoride release system.

AIM: To investigate the changes of cardiac function, oxidative stress and apoptosis in myocardium of rat model of heart failure induced by adriamycin (ADR). METHODS: At the end of the study, we observed content of malondialdehyde (MDA), activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and apoptosis. Expression of P53 protein and p53 mRNA were measured with immunohistochemical method and RT-PCR, respectively. RESULTS: Our data showed that content of MDA increased, activity of SOD decreased and apoptosis in myocardium happened while cardiac function decreased after ADR treatment. p53 gene expression and P53 protein obviously increased in heart failure group. CONCLUSION: There were oxidative stress and apoptosis occurred significantly in a model of heart failure induced by ADR. p53 gene might play an important role in the apoptosis. Correlation analyses suggested that apoptosis in myocardium is related to oxidative stress in ADR-induced heart failure.

Objective To investigate the residual risks of transfusion-transmitted HBV/HCV/HIV in current donor screening system of Qingdao area.Methods After the ELISA tests(HbsAg,anti-HCV,anti-HIV) were performed,NAT tests of HBV-DNA,HCV-RNA,and HIV-RNA on plasma samples were conducted.Such specimens as have discrepant ELISA and NAT results(N+/E-,or N-/E+) were subject to further follow-up confirmation tests.Results Among 12000 donor samples,no sample with anti-HCV(-)/HCV-RNA(+) or with anti-HIV(-)/HIV-RNA(+) was detected.However,2 individuals were detected as HBsAg(-)/HBV-DNA(+).One donor had negative ELISA test results in HBsAb,HBeAg,HBeAb,and HBcAb at the first screening.But the HBsAg,HBeAg and HBcAb were confirmed positive along with HBV-DNA after 11 weeks.The other donor was negative for HBsAb,HBeAg,and HBeAb but positive for HBcAb.Follow up tests after 3 weeks indicated the same serological results,with a similar low viralload at about 1000 IU/mL.Conclusion Due to the window period and occult HBV infection,current blood donor screening system has some residual risks of transfusion-transmitted HBV.NAT and HBcAb tests should be implemented to reduce the residual risks of transfusion-transmitted HBV.

BACKGROUND: It has been demonstrated that electromagnetic field (EMF) can adjust proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, but the specific mechanism is not clear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of EMF-activated ERK1/2 pathway on proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.METHODS: The 3rd passage of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were received EMF treatment (15 Hz, 1 mT, sine wave), 20 μmol/L PD98059 + EMF treatment, or only PD98059 treatment. Simultaneously, a normal control group was established. Western blotting was applied to detect the activation of ERK signal pathway after EMF exposure. MTT assay was used to determine the activation of proliferation of cells. And alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in cells was detected by an ALP kit. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The ERK1/2 phosphorylation, proliferation and ALP activity of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were remarkably increased after exposure to EMF (P < 0.01). PD98059 could effectively block the increasing of ERK1/2 phosphorylation and cell proliferation (P < 0.01), but elevate ALP activity in a certain level (P < 0.01). EMF stimulation can fast activate ERK1/2 signal pathway and then promote the proliferation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, however, ERK1/2 signal pathway activation has a less effect on osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

Objective To study the function, effect and mechanism of prevention of pressure sore formation with stimulation of the dorsal ramus of spinal nerve root by transcutaneous pulse using plateshape surface electrode. Methods According to the odd number and even number of admission date, 81 patients were divided into the control group (41 cases) and the observation group (40 cases). The control group received standard pressure sore prevention nursing according to Basic Nursing, the observation group received stimulation of the dorsal ramus of spinal nerve root by transcutaneous pulse using plate-shape surface electrode based upon routine nursing. Results 1 case caught grade Ⅰ pressure sere,1 case with grade Ⅱ pressure sere, and the incidence rate was 4.88% in the observation group, while in the control group, 5 cases caught grade Ⅰ pressure sore,4 cases with grade Ⅱ pressure sore, and the incidence rate was 22.50%. Conclusions Combination of routine prevention method with stimulation of the dorsal ramus of spinal nerve root by transcutancous pulse to prevent pressure sore formation can reduce the incidence rate of pressure sore in high risk population. This technique is easy, painless, noninvasive, and is a novel method for early prevention of pressure sore.

Objective To investigate the expression of helper T cells (Th)17/regulatory T cells (Treg) balance associated factors in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and their correlation with serum midkine (MK).Methods A total of 60 RA patients were divided into active RA patients (n=32) and inactive RA patients group (n=28).MK level in sera was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 60 patients with RA and 30 healthy controls (HCs).The fraction of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ Treg cells and IL-17+CD4+ Th17 cells in RA patients and healthy controls were determined by flow cytometry (FCM), and the expreasion of Foxp3, RORγt, Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3 and STAT5 mRNA were detected with real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Results were evaluated using ANOVA followed by q tests for comparisons of Th17 population between active RA patients, inactive RA patients and HCs, t test was used for comparing of Foxp3, RORγt, STAT3, STAT5 mRNA between RA group and HCs.The correlations between serum MK concentration and peripheral Treg cells, Th17 cells, Foxp3, RORγt, STAT3, STAT5 mRNA were analyzed by Pearson's correlation analysis.Results The percentages of Treg cells from active RA patients, inactive RA patients and HCs were significantly different (F=129.6, P<0.01), the percentages of Treg cells of active RA patients [(1.41±1.05)%] were lower than that of the inactive RA patients [(3.6±1.6)%;q =7.92, P<0.05] and healthy group [(7.7±1.7)%;q=22.45, P<0.05], and there was significant difference between healthy group and inactive RA group (q=14.53, P<0.05).The percentages of Th17 cells of the three groups were also significantly different (F=36.3, P<0.01),the percentage of Th17 cells of active RA patients [(1.84±1.01)%] was significantly higher than that of inactive RA patients [(0.71±0.28)%;q=9.59, P<0.05] and healthy group (0.53±0.16)% [(P<0.05;q=1 1.10, P<0.05], there was no significant difference between the inactive RA group and healthy group (q=1.51, P>0.05).The expression of RORγt and STAT3 mRNA in RA patients was higher than that of healthy controls (t=5.84, P<0.01;t=4.52, P<0.01).The expression of Foxp3 and STAT5 mRNA in RA patients were lower than healthy controls (t=6.01, P<0.01;t=2.18, P<0.05).Serum MK values were correlated with STAT5 (r=-0.55, P<0.01), but not with Foxp3, RORγt, STAT3 mRNA or the percentage of Treg/Th17 cells.Conclusion Serum MK expression and the percentage of Th17 cells increase, while the percentage of Treg cells decrease in RA patients.Serum MK values are negatively correlated with STAT5 mRNA which is associated with Th17/Treg balance.This may be important in the pathogenesis of RA.
