【Objective】 To explore the effect and mechanism of Fasudil in the treatment of experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) in mice so as to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical use of Fasudil in treating myocarditis. 【Methods】 Balb/c male mice were used as the research objects, and the EAM mice model was constructed using MyHC-α614-629 polypeptide. Mononuclear cells were isolated and cultured to detect the number of mononuclear cells in mouse spleen. Inflammation infiltration, fibrosis and IL-6 expression in mouse myocardial tissue were detected by HE staining, Masson staining and immunohistochemistry, respectively. The protein expressions of Notch1 and IL-6 were detected by Western blotting. qRT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of pro-inflammatory factors (IL-1α, IL-1β and IL-6) as well as key genes of TLRs and NOTCH signaling pathway. 【Results】 EAM mice showed increased HW, decreased BW, increased HW/e-BW, and increased inflammatory infiltration and fibrosis in myocardial tissue. The above-mentioned symptoms or pathological features were improved in EAM mice treated with Fasudil. The analysis showed that the pro-inflammatory factors IL-1α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the myocardial tissue of EAM mice were significantly increased, but only the expression of IL-6 was statistically different after Fasudil treatment compared with the control group. In addition, TLRs signaling pathway might also play an important role in the EAM mice treated with Fasudil. The expressions of IL-6 and Notch1 were consistent, and the expressions of the key genes of NOTCH signaling pathway (Notch1, Hes1 and Jag2) were down-regulated after Fasudil treatment. 【Conclusion】 Fasudil exerts a protective effect on down-regulation of IL-6 expression by inhibiting the NOTCH signaling pathway in EAM mice.

Objective:
To explore the application effect of secondary personalized chairside education on changing the knowledge and behavior of patients with oral periodontal disease.
Methods:
A total of 124 patients experiencing initial periodontal disease were selected. Sixty-two patients were observed in the observation group, and 62 patients were observed in the control group. After the doctor checked and determined the periodontal condition of the patients, the nurse conducted a targeted, personalized secondary one-on-one chairside mission for the observation group; in the control group, the nurses provided routine one-to-one health education to the patients before treatment. Statistical analysis was conducted to assess periodontal knowledge mastery, self-care behaviors, rate of return for periodontal treatment and patient satisfaction after 3 months. The plaque index and scale index were statistically analyzed before and 3 months after treatment.
Results :
No statistical difference was found in the general data between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05); however, the degree of mastery of periodontal knowledge in the observation group was higher than that in the control group. The degrees of mastery of the clinical manifestations, hazards and treatment methods were 96.7%, 93.5%, and 91.9% in the observation group and 72.5%, 48.3%, and 69.3% in the control group, respectively; the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The patients in the observation group were more likely than those in the control group to brush more than 2 times daily, use dental floss and use an interdental brush; 100%, 96.7%, and 77.4% of patients in the observation group and 80.6%, 56.4%, and 40.3% of patients in the control group participated in these oral health care behaviors, respectively. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The rate of recovery and patient satisfaction were higher in the observation group than in control group at 3 months; the rate of recovery and patient satisfaction were 80.6% and 96%, in the observation group and 41.9% and 88.7% in the control group, respectively. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After 3 months, the plaque index in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (1.71 ± 1.12, 2.35 ± 0.78), and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
Secondary personalized chairside education can significantly improve the patient’s cognition of the disease, allow the formation of accurate oral health awareness, and change the patient’s bad oral hygiene habits and medical behavior. Thus, this method is an effective oral health education method and can change the knowledge and beliefs of patients with oral periodontitis.

In this study, we attempted to establish a culture system for in vitro spermatogenesis from spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) of Bama mini-pig. Dissociated testicular cells from 1-month-old pigs were co-cultured to mimic in vivo spermatogenesis. The testicular cells were seeded in minimum essential medium alpha (α-MEM) supplemented with Knockout serum replacement (KSR). Three-dimensional colonies formed after 10 days of culture. The colonies showed positive staining for SSC-associated markers such as UCHL1, PLZF, THY1, OCT4, Dolichos biflorus agglutinin, and alkaline phosphatase. Induction of SSCs was performed in α-MEM + KSR supplemented with retinoic acid, bone morphogenetic protein 4, activin A, follicle-stimulating hormone, or testosterone. The results showed that STRA8, DMC1, PRM1, and TNP1 were upregulated significantly in the colonies after induction compared to that in testis from 1-month-old pigs, while expression levels of those genes were significantly low compared to those in 2-month-old testis. However, upregulation of ACROSIN was not significant. Replacement of α-MEM and KSR with Iscove's modified Dulbecco's medium and fetal bovine serum did not upregulate expression of these genes significantly. These results indicate that SSCs of Bama mini-pig could undergo differentiation and develop to a post-meiotic stage in α-MEM supplemented with KSR and induction factors.
