Periodontitis is a common oral disease caused by bacteria coupled with an excessive host immune response. Stem cell therapy can be a promising treatment strategy for periodontitis, but the relevant mechanism is complicated. This study aimed to explore the therapeutic potential of mitochondria from human embryonic stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hESC-MSCs) for the treatment of periodontitis. The gingival tissues of periodontitis patients are characterized by abnormal mitochondrial structure. Human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) were exposed to 5 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 24 h to establish a cell injury model. When treated with hESC-MSCs or mitochondria derived from hESC-MSCs, HGFs showed reduced expression of inflammatory genes, increased adenosine triphosphate (ATP) level, decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and enhanced mitochondrial function compared to the control. The average efficiency of isolated mitochondrial transfer by hESC-MSCs was determined to be 8.93%. Besides, a therapy of local mitochondrial injection in mice with LPS-induced periodontitis showed a reduction in inflammatory gene expression, as well as an increase in both the mitochondrial number and the aspect ratio in gingival tissues. In conclusion, our results indicate that mitochondria derived from hESC-MSCs can reduce the inflammatory response and improve mitochondrial function in HGFs, suggesting that the transfer of mitochondria between hESC-MSCs and HGFs serves as a potential mechanism underlying the therapeutic effect of stem cells.

Objective To build a comprehensive evaluation system for the operating benefit of clinical departments in cancer hospitals,so as to provide data support for the fine operation management of hospitals.Methods Literature review and semi-structured interview were used to form the index pool.Two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were used to determine the index of the evaluation system,and the analytic hierarchy process was used to determine the index weight.Finally,the weighted TOPSIS was used for empirical case analysis.Results The positive coefficient in the two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were 82.6％and 100％,the authority coefficient was 0.808,and the coordination coefficient was between 0 and 1.All indexes at all levels passed the consistency test.Finally,a comprehensive evaluation system consisting of 4 dimensions,19 indexes in surgery,16 indicators in radiotherapy and 16 indicators in internal medicine was constructed.Indicators at all levels were tested for consistency,resulting in the construction of a comprehensive evaluation system consisting of 4 dimensions,19 indicators for surgery and 16 indicators each for radiotherapy and internal medicine departments.Conclusion The comprehensive evaluation system of operating benefit of clinical departments in cancer hospitals can help hospitals and departments to find out the shortcomings of operation,build the path of operating benefit improvement,and realize the connotation improvement and high-quality development of hospitals.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and mechanism of Glycyrrhiza inflata polysaccharides （GiP） and GiP-B1 on the maturation and anti-tumor effect of dendritic cell （DC）. METHODS The immature DC （imDC） of hepatocellular carcinoma cell H22 tumor-bearing mice cultured in vitro were divided into control group， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） group， GiP group， and GiP-B1 group. The viability， positive expressions of surface markers （CD11c， CD80， CD86， MHC-Ⅱ）， the levels of interleukin-12p70 （IL-12p70） and IL-4 in mature DC （mDC） of tumor-bearing mice were detected. mDC and CD4+T lymphocytes were co-cultured to generate CD4-cytotoxic T cell （CD4-CTL）； stimulation index， the levels of IL-12p70， interferon-γ （IFN-γ）， IL-4 and IL-10， the killing activity of CD4-CTL to H22 cell were detected. mRNA expressions of IL-12， IL-12 receptor （IL-12R）， signal transducer and activator of transcription-4 （STAT-4）， as well as the protein expression of IL-12 receptor β2 （IL-12Rβ2）， phosphorylation levels of nuclear factor-kappa B （NF- κB） p65 and STAT-4 proteins in mDC were detected after co-culture. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the viability of mDC， the positive expressions of MHC-Ⅱ， and the levels of IL-12p70 and IL-4 were increased significantly in GiP group and GiP-B1 group （P＜0.05）. The positive expressions of CD11c， CD80 and CD86 showed an increasing trend， but the differences were not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. After co-culturing， the stimulation index， the levels of IL-12p70 and IFN-γ were significantly increased （P＜0.05）， while the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 （except for the GiP group） were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）； the cytotoxicity against H22 cells was significantly enhanced （P＜0.05）. mRNA expressions of IL-12 and IL-12R （except for GiP group） and STAT-4， protein expression of IL-12Rβ2 as well as phosphorylation levels of NF-κB p65 and STAT-4 protein were increased significantly in mDC （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS GiP and GiP-B1 have a good promoting effect on the maturation of DC in tumor-bearing mice， effectively stimulate CD4+T cell proliferation， enhance the anti-tumor activity of CD4-CTL，and its mechanism may be related to activating IL-12/NF-κB/ STAT-4 signaling pathway.
