Objective To evaluate the effect of two different acid etching agents on the bonding strength between deciduous enamel and composite resin at different etching times.Methods Seventy primary incisors were made into test specimens and randomly divided into 7 groups(n=10),6 experimental groups,and 1 blank control group.The specimens were divided into groups and etchedwith two different acid etching agents(35%H3PO4,15%HCl)for different durations(15,30,60 s).After bonding with the composite resin,shear force testing was performed.Additionally,two deciduous molar dental crowns were cut vertically along the gingival axis,with each tooth divided into seven sections and randomly assigned to seven groups.Enamel acid etched specimens were produced and the surface morphology was observed using scanning electron microscopy.Finally,24 deciduous molars were randomly divided into 3 groups(n=8)according to the etching time(15,30,60 s),and each tooth was vertically cut into 2 pieces along the buccal lingual direction,namely the phosphoric acid group and the hydrochloric acid group,and etched for the same time(n=8),for a total of 6 groups.They were bonded with resin and made into specimens.The specimen was cut vertically to the bonding surface into 2 parts.One measurement point was selected for each part,and each group had a total of 16 measurement values.Resin protrusion length was measured under scanning electron microscopy and was statistically analyzed.Results When comparing acid etching for 15,30,and 60 s,the bonding strength of the phosphate group was higher than that of the hydrochloric acid group.Under scanning electron microscopy,there was no significant difference in the acid etching mode between the two groups,both of which were type 2 acid etching modes dissolved along the glaze column direction.At 15 seconds of acid etching,the enamel surface was uneven,and continuous and uniform dissolution ap-peared at 30 seconds.The length of resin protrusion increased with the increase of acid etching time,and the phosphoric acid group was greater than the hydrochloric acid group at 15,30,and 60 s compared between groups.Conclusion The etching time is positively correlated with the shear bonding strength.The best bonding effect is achieved when deciduous teeth are etched with 35% H3PO4 for 60 seconds,and the effect of 35%phosphoric acid etching on deciduous tooth enamel is better than that of 15%hydrochloric acid.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and one of the deadliest cancers worldwide.According to the distribution of tumor tissue,breast cancer can be divided into invasive and non-invasive forms.The cancer cells in invasive breast cancer pass through the breast and through the immune system or systemic circulation to different parts of the body,forming metastatic breast cancer.Drug resistance and distant metastasis are the main causes of death from breast cancer.Research on breast cancer has attracted extensive attention from researchers.In vitro construction of tumor models by tissue engineering methods is a common tool for studying cancer mechanisms and anticancer drug screening.The tumor microenvironment consists of cancer cells and various types of stromal cells,including fibroblasts,endothelial cells,mesenchymal cells,and immune cells embedded in the extracellular matrix.The extracellular matrix contains fibrin proteins(such as types Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ,Ⅵ,and Ⅹcollagen and elastin)and glycoproteins(such as proteoglycan,laminin,and fibronectin),which are involved in cell signaling and binding of growth factors.The current traditional two-dimensional(2D)tumor models are limited by the growth environment and often cannot accurately reproduce the heterogeneity and complexity of tumor tissues in vivo.Therefore,in recent years,research on three-dimensional(3D)tumor models has gradually increased,especially 3D bioprinting models with high precision and repeatability.Compared with a 2D model,the 3D environment can better simulate the complex extracellular matrix components and structures in the tumor microenvironment.Three-dimensional models are often used as a bridge between 2D cellular level experiments and animal experiments.Acellular matrix,gelatin,sodium alginate,and other natural materials are widely used in the construction of tumor models because of their excellent biocompatibility and non-immune rejection.Here,we review various natural scaffold materials and construction methods involved in 3D tissue-engineered tumor models,as a reference for research in the field of breast cancer.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the effect and mechanism of miR-125a-5p targeted regulation of scavenger receptor B1 (Scarb1) gene on anoxia/reoxygenation injury of rat cardiomyocytes.
METHODS:
H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes were randomly divided into blank control group, hypoxia/reoxygenation group, transfection control group and mir-125a-5p transfection group. The expression of miR-125a-5p, cardiomyocyte viability, apoptosis rate, ATP content and the expression of Scarb1, Cyt C, Bax, Bcl-2 and NF-κB signaling pathway related proteins were determined. Target gene of miR-125a-5p was predicted with Targetscan software, and the targeting of miR-125a-5p on Scarb1 was verified by double luciferase reporter gene experiment.
RESULTS:
Compared with the blank control group, the expression of miR-125a-5p, Bax, Cyt C and the apoptotic rate of cardiomyocytes in the hypoxia/reoxygenation group were significantly increased (P<0.05), while the expression of Scarb1, Bcl-2 and the content of ATP were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the situation of mir-125a-5p transfection group was just the opposite. Double luciferase reporter gene experiment has confirmed Scarb1 to be the target of miR-125a-5p. Hypoxia/reoxygenation can promote the expression of NF-κB p65, C-myc and Cyclin D1 in cardiomyocytes, while down-regulating the expression of miR-125a-5p can inhibit the expression of such proteins.
CONCLUSION
Hypoxia/reoxygenation can induce the expression of miR-125a-5p in rat cardiomyocytes. Inhibition of miR-125a-5p can protect cardiomyocytes from hypoxia/reoxygenation by up-regulating the expression of Scarb1. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of activation of NF-κB signaling pathway.

Collaboration of c-KIT mutations with AML1-ETO (AE) has been demonstrated to induce t(8; 21) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Targeted therapies designed to eliminate AE and c-KIT oncoproteins may facilitate effective treatment of t(8; 21) AML. Homoharringtonine (HHT) features activity against tumor cells harboring c-KIT mutations, whereas oridonin can induce t(8; 21) AML cell apoptosis and AE cleavage. Therefore, studies should explore the efficacy of combination therapy with oridonin and HHT in t(8; 21) AML. In this study, we investigated the synergistic effects and mechanism of oridonin combined with HHT in t(8; 21) AML cell line and mouse model. The two drugs synergistically inhibited cell viability and induced significant mitochondrial membrane potential loss and apoptosis. Oridonin and HHT induced significant downregulation of c-KIT and its downstream signaling pathways and promoted AE cleavage. HHT increased intracellular oridonin concentration by modulating the expressions of MRP1 and MDR1, thus enhancing the effects of oridonin. The combination of oridonin and HHT prolonged t(8; 21) leukemia mouse survival. In conclusion, oridonin and HHTexert synergistic effects against t(8; 21) leukemia in vivo and in vitro, thereby indicating that their combination may be an effective therapy for t(8; 21) leukemia.
