RESUMEN

Oral cavity is one of the main organs involved in chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD). Oral cGVHD seriously affects the patient's quality of life. Topical use of glucocorticoid and other agents is the primary topical treatment of oral cGVHD, oral photochemical therapy and various new methods have also been applied in patients recently. These important adjuvant therapies are based on the systemic use of drugs such as immunosuppressive agents, and sometimes, may be the only effective treatment for oral cGVHD. This review will focus on the application of topical agent treatment and oral photochemotherapy in oral cGVHD patients.

RESUMEN

Objective:To evaluate the effects of crown lengthening surgery by apically repositioned flap for the treatment of the teeth with inadequate width of attached gingiva. Methods:17 teeth with inadequate width of attached gingiva were included. The gingiva flap was repositioned apically. The distance between gingival margin to the root surface was recorded, the width of attached gingiva and other indicators were compared before and 6 months after surgery. Results:Edge of the defects the 17 teeth was below gingiva margin before surgery, root surface was exposed to the coronal gingival margin 6 months after surgery in 16 of the 17 cases (94. 11%). Api-cally displacement distance of the gingival margin was (3. 88 ± 0. 49) mm. The width of attached gingiva before and 6 months after sur-gery was (2.35 ±0.61) mm and (2.65 ±0.49) mm respectively(P>0.05). Conclusion: Crown lengthening with apically reposi-tioned flap surgery can effectively expose the root surface and create conditions for restoration of dental defects for teeth with inadequate attached gingiva, and can prevent over removal of the keratinized gingiva.

RESUMEN

Objective To investigate the expression of TLR 4 and its downstream factor TNF-αin the patients with human immunodeficiency virus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( HIV/MTB) co-infection. Methods A total of 119 subjects including 32 patients with HIV infection (HIV group), 30 patients with HIV/MTB co-infection (HIV/MTB group), 28 patients with MTB infection (MTB group) and 29 healthy subjects ( control group ) were recruited continuously from the Fourth People′s Hospital of Nanning City , Guangxi.The expression of TLR4 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from the patients was de-termined by flow cytometry .ELISA was performed to detect TNF-αin plasma samples .The HIV-1 viral load was determined by standard method .Results The mean fluorescence intensity ( MFI) for TLR4 expression in PBMCs from HIV, HIV/MTB, MTB and control groups were 21.62±4.67, 18.29±3.87, 16.79±4.45, and 22.85±5.80, respectively, showing significant differences among four groups (F=8.105, P<0.01). The TLR4 levels in MTB and HIV/MTB groups were significantly lower than those in control group ( both P<0.01) and HIV group (P<0.01, P=0.014).The plasma concentrations of TNF-αin HIV, HIV/MTB, MTB and control groups were 15.892 (10.494-21.646) pg/ml, 13.142 (8.014-22.038) pg/ml, 16.284 (11.916-24.005) pg/ml, and 26.657 (16.321-34.541) pg/ml, respectively, that were significantly dif-ferent from each other (F=4.350, P=0.006).The levels of TNF-αin plasma from patients with HIV and HIV/MTB infection were significantly lower than those of healthy subjects (P=0.009 and P=0.001).The viral load in patients from HIV/MTB group (5.113 ±1.018 copies/ml) was significantly higher than that from HIV group (4.416±1.020 copies/ml) (t=3.449, P=0.001).Conclusion MTB infection might promote HIV replication by inhibiting the expression of TLR 4.HIV infection might increase host′s suscepti-bility to MTB infection by reducing the production of TNF-α.Suppressed expression of TLR and TNF-αpro-duction could contribute to the occurrence of HIV /MTB co-infection .

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the features of oral lesions in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 127 HIV-seropositive patients were interviewed for health information and examined for their HIV-related oral lesions according to the EC Clearing House Criteria on Oral Problems related to HIV-Infection (1992). The examinations were conducted by dental specialist and HIV specialist. The CD4 T cell count in peripheral blood of the patients was tested by flow cytometry. The patients were divided into HIV- infected group (42) and AIDS group (85) according to CDC Classification System for HIV- Infected Adults and Adolescents (revised in 1993). Chi-square test was used to test the relationship between systemic disease and oral lesions, and the difference of the prevalence of oral lesions between the two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Among the 127 patients, oral candidiasis (51/127), oral hairy leukoplakia (24/127) were common oral manifestation. There was no relationship between the oral manifestation and systemic disease (P = 0.397). The occurrence of oral lesions and oral candidiasis was significantly different between the two groups (χ² = 7.684, P = 0.006; χ² = 14.410, P < 0.001). The CD4 count was related to the prevalence of oral lesions (P = 0.006) and oral candidasis (P = 0.003).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Most oral lesions appeared before the appearance of systemic disease. Oral candidiasis and oral hairy leukoplakia were the most common lesions.Oral lesions had no relationship with systemic disease but could be still an indicator for disease progress.</p>

RESUMEN

Objective To explore the expressions of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2 ) and the downstream proteins in patients with human immunodeficiency virus /Mycobacterium tuberculosis (HIV /M TB) co-infection .Methods A total of 119 subjects were randomly enrolled .The subjects were divided into four groups :HIV group (n = 32) ,HIV /M TB group (n = 30) ,M TB group (n = 28) and healthy control group (n= 29) .Peripheral venous blood was collected and the HIV-1 viral load was determined by standard method .The expression levels of TLR2 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were determined by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) and mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of TLR2 protein was detected by flow cytometry .The plasma interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α levels were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits .The data were statistically analyzed by chi-square test ,students t test ,analysis of variance and rank sum test when appropriate .Results The viral load in HIV /M TB group ([5 .113 ± 1 .018] lg copy/mL ) was significantly higher than that in HIV group ([4 .416 ± 1 .020] lg copy/mL ; t = 3 .449 , P among HIV ,HIV/M TB ,M TB and healthy control groups were 1 .397 ± 0 .601 ,1 .463 ± 0 .702 ,1 .429 ± 0 .630 ,and 0 .970 ± 0 .488 ,respectively ,which was significantly different among the 4 groups (F =4 .197 , P= 0 .007) .The MFI of TLR2 protein expressions on PBMC among HIV ,HIV /M TB ,M TB and healthy control groups were 28 .12 ± 4 .55 ,38 .11 ± 11 .77 ,31 .13 ± 12 .10 and 23 .33 ± 5 .14 ,respectively . The TLR2 protein expression levels were significantly different among 4 groups (F= 13 .976 ,P< 0 .01) . The plasma IL-6 and TNF-α concentrations were significantly different among 4 groups (Z = 19 .088 , 15 .475 ,both P< 0 .01) .The IL-6 concentrations in three patient groups were higher than that in healthy control group ,but the TNF-α concentrations were lower than healthy control group .Conclusions The co-infection of HIV-1 and M TB may enhance the activation of TLR2 signaling pathway ,which leads to the increased expression of IL-6 .

RESUMEN

Objective: To investigate the expression of LL37 in oral lichen planus (OLP) lesions. Methods: 25 OLP and 7 health controls were included in this study. IHC and RT-PCR methods were used to detect the LL37 expression on protein level and mRNA level. T-test was used for data analysis. Results: Positive staining of LL37 was found in all the samples in cytoplasm of epithelium cells using IHC method, and mostly in prickle and basal layers. But the reaction intensity in health control was weak, compared to the strong signal in OLP group(P<0.05). The expressions of LL37 mRNA in OLP were significantly higher than those in health controls(P<0.05). Conclusion: The expression of LL37 on normal oral mucosa suggests that it may play a role in maintaining the health of oral mucosa as a part of innate immunity. The up-regulation of LL37 under inflammation status might participate in the immunopathological development of OLP.
