氢氧化钙糊剂与根管内感染控制

感染控制对根管治疗的成功至关重要。尽管随着器械及设备的进步，对根管的清理及成形取得了很大的进展；然而，由于根管系统解剖结构错综复杂，使得获取清洁根管面临各种问题。例如：机械预备的宽度有限，不能彻底清理感染牙本质；冲洗技术的运用虽然可以去除根管器械预备后形成的玷污层，但对细菌内毒素的清除还是难以达到理想的效果，而残留的微生物、毒素等若得不到清除可能会在根尖周组织形成持续感染。因此，除外机械预备和冲洗，根管封药也是感染根管治疗过程中的重要步骤。氢氧化钙糊剂以其高效的抗菌作用在临床得到广泛使用。文章将对根管封药的必要性、氢氧化钙的作用机制及临床应用做一介绍。     

The increase in bone mineral density by bisphosphonate with active vitamin D analog is associated with the serum calcium level within the reference interval in postmenopausal osteoporosis

Objectives: To examine the factors associated with increase in lumbar spine bone mineral density (LS-BMD) by bisphosphonates (BPs) with active vitamin D analog (aVD).

Methods: Two independent postmenopausal osteoporotic patients treated by BPs with aVD for 24 months (Study 1: n?=?93, Study 2: n?=?99) were retrospectively analyzed.

Results: In Study 1, LS-BMD of the patients significantly increased for 24 m (5.4%, p?r²: 0.088, p?=?.02). While average sCa of the patients was 9.2?mg/dL before treatment, it increased time-dependently to 9.6?mg/dL for 24 m by treatment. As each patient had their LS-BMD five times during the study, there were four instances of %LS-BMD in each patient, resulting in 372 instances of %LS-BMD in Study 1. The smallest Akaike’s information criterion value for the most appropriate cut-off levels of sCa for %LS-BMD by treatment every 6 m was 9.3?mg/dL. The %LS-BMD by treatment for 6 m during 24 m period in patients with sCa ≥9.3?mg/dL (1.5%) was significantly higher than that in patients with sCa <9.3?mg/dL (0.8%, p?=?.038). The results of Study 2 were similar to those of Study 1, confirming the phenomena observed.

Conclusion: sCa was associated with an increased LS-BMD by BPs with aVD.     

基于BGP、TGF-β1的表达探究蛇床子素对去卵巢致骨质疏松大鼠的作用

目的观察蛇床子素对去卵巢致骨质疏松大鼠的影响。方法选取3月龄雌性SD大鼠30只,随机分为蛇床子素组(A组)、模型对照组(B组)、假手术组(C组),各10只。A、B 2组摘除卵巢构建去势大鼠骨质疏松模型,C组仅进行手术、不摘除卵巢。造模成功后,分别给予相应药物灌胃,连续给药12周,处死。然后测量骨密度,检测治疗后血清BGP、TGF-β1、钙指标。结果B组大鼠股骨骨密度较C组明显降低(P<0.05);经12周治疗,A组股骨骨密度较B组明显升高(P<0.05)。与C组比较,B组大鼠血清中BGP含量升高、TGF-β1降低(P<0.05);与B组比较,A组大鼠血清中BGP降低、TGF-β1含量升高(P<0.05)。与C组比较,B组大鼠血清Ca水平明显降低(P<0.05);与B组比较,A组大鼠血清Ca水平明显升高(P<0.05)。差异均有统计学意义。结论蛇床子素能够有效通过调节大鼠体内激素分泌改善去卵巢大鼠的骨代谢异常,提高骨密度,对骨质疏松症起到一定的防治作用。     

载As2O3 pH敏感钙砷复合物脂质体的制备及体外评价

目的 制备pH敏感释药的As₂O₃脂质体，并进行体外评价。方法 采用薄膜分散法制备含钙离子脂质体，然后用离子沉淀法孵育制备钙砷复合物脂质体（CaAs-LP）。测定CaAs-LP的粒径、Zeta电位及多分散系数（PDI）；透射电子显微镜观察脂质体的形态；电感耦合等离子体发射光谱仪测定纳米药物的载药量与包封率；透析袋法考察其体外释药特性。噻唑蓝（MTT）法考察未载药脂质体及CaAs-LP对人源性乳腺癌MCF-7细胞、人源性脑胶质瘤U87细胞和人源性肝癌HepG2细胞的毒性；共聚焦显微镜考察U87细胞对CaAs-LP的摄取效率。结果 制备的CaAs-LP呈规整类球型，粒径约为（117.16±1.94）nm，包封率和载药量分别为（74.31±2.11）%、（8.31±0.13）%。体外释放研究表明，CaAs-LP具有明显的缓释以及pH响应释药特征。未载药的脂质体在MCF-7、U87、HepG2和L02细胞中的生物相容性良好；CaAs-LP抑制肿瘤细胞生长的作用较原药有所上升，半数抑制浓度（IC₅₀）值分别为11.91、4.90、19.41、27.59 μmol/L。细胞摄取研究表明肝癌细胞对脂质体具有良好的摄取。结论 CaAs-LP具备显著的缓释以及pH响应释药的特性，在肿瘤治疗方面具有较好的应用前景。
