ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of lncRNA HOTAIR on the radiosensitivity of glioma cells and its underlying mechanism.Methods:The negative control plasmid, HOTAIR silencing plasmid, miR-NC over expressing plasmid, miR-17-5p over expressing plasmid were transfected into U87R cells, and assigned intothe silencing control, HOTAIR silencing, miR-NC over expressing and miR-17-5 pover expressing groups. Cells in the the above groups were irradiated at a dose of 4Gy, and recorded as silencing control+ 4Gy group, HOTAIRsilencing+ 4Gy group, miR-NC over expressing+ 4Gy group and miR-17-5p over expressing+ 4Gy group. The HOTAIR silencing plasmid, miR-NC suppressing plasmid and miR-17-5p suppressing plasmid were co-transfected into U87R cells and recorded as the HOTAIR silencing+ miR-NC suppressing group and HOTAIR silencing+ miR-17-5p suppressing group. All procedures were transfected by the liposome method. The expression of miR-17-5p and HOTAIR was detected by qRT-PCR. The radio sensitivity of glioma cells was evaluated by cell clone formation assay. The cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. The fluorescence activity was assessed by dual luciferase reporter assay.Results:HOTAIR was highly expressed in the radiation-resistant glioma cells. Silencing HOTAIR and over-expressing miR-17-5p could increase the radiosensitivity of U87R cells and promote radiation-induced apoptosis of U87R cells. HOTAIR could target and regulate the miR-17-5p expression. Suppressing miR-17-5p reversed the effect of silencing HOTAIR on U87R cell sensitization and promoting radiation-induced U87R cell apoptosis.Conclusions:Silencing lncRNA HOTAIR yields radiation sensitization and promotes radiation-induced apoptosis in glioma cells. The mechanism may be related to the regulation of miR-17-5p.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs) among dentists and explore its influencing factors. METHODS: A total of 455 dentists from 9 medical organizations of Beijing and Fuzhou cities were selected as study subjects. The disease occurrence and mental workload were investigated using China Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire and Subjective Workload Assessment Technique. The influencing factors of WMSDs were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS: The total prevalence of WMSDs was 58.9%(268/455) among dentists. The top three body parts of WMSDs were neck(41.5%), shoulder(33.6%) and lower back(28.1%). The median of mental workload score was 58. Multivariate logistic regression analysis results indicated that female dentists showed a higher risk than male dentists(P<0.01) after excluding the influence of confounding factors. The higher the length of service, the higher their risk for WMSDs(P<0.01). Dentists who hold their heads sideways for long time, bent frequently, and use vibrating tools had relatively high risks of developing WMSDs(P<0.01). Dentists who use armchairs had a relatively low risk of WMSDs(P<0.01). There was no correlation between the mental workload and the prevalence of WMSDs in dentists(P>0.05). CONCLUSION: The prevalence of WMSDs among dentists is high. Individual factors, awkward posture and using vibrating tools are risk factors of WMSDs among dentists.Armchair use can help reduce the risk of WMSDs.

ABSTRACT

With the rapid development of imaging technology, the application of dental imaging in diagnosis, treatment planning, intraoperative surgical navigation, monitoring of treatment or lesion development and assessment of treatment outcomes is playing an essential role in oral healthcare. The increased total number of dental X-ray examinations is accompanied by a relatively significant increase in collective dose to patients as well as to dental healthcare workers, which is harmful to human bodies to a certain degree. Some radiation protection standards and guidelines in dental radiology have been published in European countries, US, Canada and Australia, etc. Adherence to these standards and guidelines helps to achieve images with diagnostic quality and avoid unnecessary and repeated exposures. However, no radiation protection standard or guideline with regard to dental X-ray examinations has been put in force so far in mainland China. Therefore, a literature review on available radiation protection standards and guidelines was conducted to provide reference to the development of radiation protection standards or guidelines in mainland China.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the changes in the quantity of colonizing Streptococcus mutans(S. mutans) and Actinomyces on the root surface plaque before and after post-core crown restoration of the mandibular first molars in the elderly patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 30 elderly patients, each with one post-core crown restoration of the mandibular first molar, were randomly chosen to participate in the studies. Patients with mandibular first molars with post-core crown restoration and those with healthy contralateral mandibular first molars were divided into the test and control groups, respectively. Root surface plaques of the two groups were collected before tooth preparation, 72 h after preparation, one week after preparation, and one month after restoration. S. mutans, Actinomyces naeslundii (A. naeslundii) and Actinomyces viscosus (A. viscosus), were identified using colony morphology, biochemical techniques, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Plaque count was measured using microbial colony count.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The number of S. mutans and A. viscosus and A. naeslundii in the test group, which was statistically significant (P<0.05), increased 72 h after preparation. The quantities of S. mutans, A. viscosus, and A. naeslundii one week after preparation were significantly different (P<0.05). The plaque count of S. mutans, A. viscosus, and A. naeslundii in the test group decreased one month after restoration (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The quantities of S. mutans, A. viscosus and A. naeslundii increase one week after preparation but decrease one month after restoration. The finding suggests that dentists should educate patients about plaque control during the early period after tooth preparation.</p>

ABSTRACT

Proteins are the final executive actor of cell viability and function. Protein-protein interactions determine the complexity of the organism. Research on the protein interactions can help us understand the function of the protein at the molecular level, learn the cell growth, development, differentiation, apoptosis and understand biological regulation mechanisms and other activities. They are essential for understanding the pathologies of diseases and helpful in the prevention and treatment of diseases, as well as in the development of new drugs. In this paper, we employ the single decision-tree classification model to predict protein-protein interactions in the yeast. The original data came from the existing literature. Using software Clementine, this paper analyzes how these attributes affect the accuracy of the model by adjusting the predicted attributes. The result shows that a single decision tree is a good classification model and it has higher accuracy compared to those in the previous researches.
