ABSTRACT

Background@#An in vitro study on rapid culturing method of human gingival fibroblast cells (HGFCs) was established to investigate the potential use of the leukocyte-platelet rich fibrin (L-PRF) in tissue engineering technology, different medical fields, including periodontology and implantology. @*Methods@#Eight biopsies were obtained from eight different donors and a modified culturing technique was developed to obtain HGFCs. The modified 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide MTT assay was used to compare the cell viability when the modified culturing method was used in comparison to the standard method. Blood samples were collected from the same patients and L-PRF was isolated using a standard protocol. The releases of platelet-derived growth factor-AA and transforming growth factor-beta1 at various time intervals were observed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. The proliferative effect of L-PRF on HGFCs was assessed by the cell counting kit—8 assay. @*Results@#A simple and rapid modified method for in vitro HGFC culture yielded a cellular monolayer within three to nine days after cell culture. L-PRF with three-dimensional polymer fibers released growth factors that peaked during the first three hours and continued to produce up to 10 days. The L-PRF presented a dose-dependent effect on HGFCs proliferation where HGFCs proliferation increased with an increase in L-PRF concentration. @*Conclusion@#The modified technique for the culture of HGFCs might be useful for the development of future experimental and clinical studies, besides L-PRF has great therapeutic potential in oral surgery fields.

ABSTRACT

Gastric bronchogenic cysts (GBCs) is uncommon with atypical clinical features. It is difficult to diagnose by preoperative imaging examinations. Therefore , postoperative histopatho-logical examination is regarded as the golden bacteria in ultimate diagnosis. The treatment of GBCs:ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration and endoscopic mucosal resection is only used for small GBCs with intra-cavity growth pattern. However , GBCs with extra-cavity growth pattern is featured with deeply anatomical position , large size , and prone on attaching to vital blood vessels and organs , which makes laparoscopic resection is the first choice in treatment. The authors introduce the diagnosis and treatment of a case of GBCs attaching to lesser curvature , in order to provide references for clinical diagnosis of GBCs.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To construct a prognosis associated micro RNA(miRNA) prediction model based on bioinformatics analysis and evaluate its application value in pancreatic cancer patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 171 pancreatic cancer patients from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (https: //cancergenome.nih.gov/) between establishment of database and September 2017 were collected. There were 93 males and 78 females, aged from 35 to 88 years, with a median age of 65 years. Of the 171 patients, 64 had complete clinicopathological data. Patients were allocated into training dataset consisting of 123 patients and validation dataset consisting of 48 patients using the random sampling method, with a ratio of 7∶3. The training dataset was used to construct a prediction model, and the validation dataset was used to evaluate performance of the prediction model. Nine pairs of miRNA sequencing data (GSE41372) of pancreatic cancer and adjacent tissues were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database. The candidate miRNAs were selected from differentially expressed miRNAs in pancreatic cancer and adjacent tissues for LASSO-COX regression analysis based on the patients of training dataset. A prognosis associated miRNA prediction model was constructed upon survival associated miRNAs which were selected from candidate differentially expressed miRNAs. The performance of prognosis associated miRNA prediction model was validated in training dataset and validation dataset, the accuracy of model was evaluated using the area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curves and the efficiency was evaluated using the consistency index (C-index). Observation indicarors: (1) survival of patients; (2) screening results of differentially expressed miRNAs; (3) construction of prognosis associated miRNA model; (4) validation of prognosis associated miRNA model; (5) comparison of clinicopathological factors in pancreatic cancer patients; (6) analysis of factors for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients; (7) comparison of prediction performance between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, comparison between groups was analyzed by the student- t test, and comparison between multiple groups was analyzed by the AVONA. Measurement data with skewed data were represented as M (range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Ordinal data were analyzed using the rank sum test. Correlation analysis was conducted based on count data to mine the correlation between prognosis associated miRNA model and clinicopathological factors. COX univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were applied to evaluate correlation with the results described as hazard ratio ( HR) and 95% confidence interval ( CI). HR<1 indicated the factor as a protective factor, HR>1 indicated the factor as a risk factor, and HR equal to 1 indicated no influence on survival. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve and calculate survival rates, and the Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Survival of patients: 123 patients in the training dataset were followed up for 31-2 141 days, with a median follow-up time of 449 days. The 3- and 5-year survival rates were 16.67% and 8.06%. Forty-eight patients in the validation dataset were followed up for 41-2 182 days, with a median follow-up time of 457 days. The 3- and 5-year survival rates were 15.63% and 9.68%. There was no significant difference in the 3- or 5-year survival rates between the two groups ( χ2=0.017, 0.068, P>0.05). (2) Screening results of differentially expressed miRNAs. Results of bioinformatics analysis showed that 102 candidate differentially expressed miRNAs were selected, of which 63 were up-regulated in tumor tissues while 39 were down-regulated. (3) Construction of prognosis associated miRNA model: of the 102 candidate differentially expressed miRNAs, 5 survival associated miRNAs were selected, including miR-21, miR-125a-5p, miR-744, miR-374b, miR-664. The differential expression patterns of pancreatic cancer to adjacent tissues were up-regulation, up-regulation, down-regulation, up-regulation, and down-regulation, respectively, with the fold change of 4.00, 3.43, 3.85, 2.62, and 2.35. A prognostic expression equation constructed based on 5 survival associated miRNAs = 0.454×miR-21 expression level-0.492×miR-125a-5p expression level-0.49×miR-744 expression level-0.419×miR-374b expression level-0.036×miR-664 expression level. (4) Validation of prognosis associated miRNA model: The C-index of prognosis associated miRNA model was 0.643 and 0.642 for the training dataset and validation dataset, respectively. (5) Comparison of clinicopathological factors in pancreatic cancer patients: results of COX analysis showed that the prognosis associated miRNA model was highly related with pathological T stage and location of pancreatic cancer ( Z=45.481, χ2=10.176, P<0.05). (6) Analysis of factors for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients: results of univariate analysis showed that pathological N stage, radiotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, score of prognosis associated miRNA model were related factors for prognosis pf pancreatic cancer patients ( HR=2.471, 0.290, 0.172, 2.001, 95% CI: 1.012-6.032, 0.101-0.833, 0.082-0.364, 1.371-2.922, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that molecular targeted therapy was an independent protective factor for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients ( HR=0.261, 95% CI: 0.116-0.588, P<0.05) and score of prognosis associated miRNA model≥1.16 was an independent risk factor for prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients ( HR=1.608, 95% CI: 1.091-2.369, P<0.05). (7) Comparison of prediction performance between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging: in the training dataset, there was a significant difference in the prediction probability for 3- and 5-year survival of pancreatic cancer patients between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging ( Z=-1.671, -1.867, P<0.05). The AUC of the prognosis associated miRNA model and the eight edition TNM staging for 3- and 5-year survival prediction was 0.797, 0.935 and 0.737 , 0.703, with the 95% CI of 0.622-0.972, 0.828-1.042 and 0.571-0.904 , 0.456-0.951. The C-index was 0.643 and 0.534. In the validation dataset, there was a significant difference in the prediction probability for 3- and 5-year survival of pancreatic cancer patients between prognosis associated miRNA model and the eighth edition TNM staging ( Z=-1.729, -1.923, P<0.05). The AUC of the prognosis associated miRNA model and the eight edition TNM staging was 0.750, 0.873 and 0.721 , 0.703, with the 95% CI of 0.553-0.948, 0.720-1.025 and 0.553-0.889, 0.456-0.950, respectively. The C-index was 0.642 and 0.544. Conclusions:A prognosis associated miRNA prediction model can be constructed based on 5 survival associated miRNAs in pancreatic cancer patients, as a complementation to current TNM staging and other clinicopathological parameters, which provides individual and accurate prediction of survival for reference in the clinical treatment.

ABSTRACT

At the present day, curettage and periodontal surgery comprise the main strategy for the treatment of periodontitis, however, these methods are limited in regenerating cementum. It has been found that some biological factors such asenamel matrix derivative (EMD), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) could promote cementum regeneration. In the cementum regenerationstudies, there has been a lack of criteria to distinguish cementum from alveolar bone and other types of cementum. Therefore, this article will briefly review the biological factors that affect the cementum regeneration and the molecular markers used to judge the regenerating cementum.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To explore the effects of ambient fine particulate matter(PM2.5)exposure on semen quality in healthy adult men .@*Methods@#The semen quality data were collected from the pre-pregnancy check outpatient of Taizhou Central Hospital from August 2014 to December 2017,excluding the patients with any disease of reproductive system. The data of daily pollutant concentration of this area during the same period were also collected to estimate the exposures of PM2.5,PM10,SO2,NO2,O3 and CO during 90 days before each semen examination. Logistic regression model was applied to estimate the association between PM2.5 exposure and semen quality .@*Results@#A total of 3 456 healthy adult men were included in this study. The median (interquartile range)of the total sperm count of the 3 456 subjects was 161.00(122.00)×106,and 94.40% of the subjects could reach the lower reference limit for sperm count. The median(interquartile range)of the sperm concentration was 22.20(18.80)×106/mL,and 69.50% of the subjects were qualified. The median(interquartile range)of the sperm vitality was 55.30%(23.37%),and 44.10% of the subjects were qualified. The median(interquartile range)of daily average concentration of PM2.5 at 0-90 days before semen examination was 37.82(12.33)μg/m3. The results of multivariate logistic regression model showed that,with each 12.33 μg/m3 increase of PM2.5 exposures at 0-90 days before semen examination,the odds ratios of unqualified sperm concentration,sperm motility and sperm vitality were 1.236(95%CI:1.041-1.466),1.493(95%CI:1.260-1.770)and 1.462(95%CI:1.246-1.715),respectively .@*Conclusion@#The results suggested that high concentration of ambient PM2.5 exposure during the sperm development period negatively affects sperm concentration,sperm motility and sperm vitality.
