牵张应变作用下人牙周膜细胞内磷脂酶C-γ1水平的变化

目的:观察机械牵张应变作用下,人牙周膜细胞(HPDLCs)内磷脂酶C-γ1(PLC-γ1)水平的变化。方法:通过原代和传代培养,获得性状稳定的人牙周膜细胞,使用动态机械应变细胞加载仪对细胞进行1%、10%和20%动态牵张应变加载。加载不同时间,通过流式细胞仪对细胞进行PLC-γ1水平检测。采用SPSS13.0软件包对数据进行方差分析。结果:在加载牵张应变初期,细胞内的PLC-γ1水平维持较低水平;随着牵张应变加载时间的延长,牙周膜细胞内的PLC-γ1水平逐渐升高。50min时,PLC-γ1水平达到各应变组的最高值(P<0.01)。随着加载时间的继续延长,60min时,各应变组的PLC-γ1水平都显著下降(P<0.01)。结论:牵张应变可引起细胞内PLC-γ1水平的变化。

Clinical evaluation of patients with temporomandibular joint implants

PURPOSE: An undetermined number of patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) symptoms have been treated with intra-articular disc implants composed of Teflon ethylene/propylene or Teflon polytetrafluoroethylene and aluminum oxide (Proplast-Teflon; Vitek, Houston, TX). These implants have shown the potential to fragment in situ resulting in nonbiodegradable particles that stimulate a giant cell reaction and lead to degeneration of local structures, pain, and limitation of mandibular opening. We examined the possible relationship between TMJ implants and persistent pain, responses to sensory stimuli, quality of life, and systemic immune dysfunction. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This case series (32 patients) were referred from university-based orofacial pain centers and private practices from across the United States. Laboratory and clinical assessments evaluated orofacial pain symptoms, neurologic function, clinical signs and symptoms of rheumatologic disease, physical function, systemic measures of immune function, and behavioral measures. RESULTS: We found that TMJ implant patients appeared to have altered sensitivity to sensory stimuli, a higher number of tender points with a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, increased self-report of chemical sensitivity, higher psychologic distress and significantly lower functional ability. Systemic illness or autoimmune disease was not evident in this series of TMJ implant patients. CONCLUSIONS: Significant problems were noted on clinical assessment of TMJ implant patients. This is a US government work. There are no restrictions on its use.     

IL—1,IL—6,TNF对人TMJ滑膜细胞蛋白合成的影响

目的：研究人ＴＭＪ滑膜细胞（ＳＭＣ）蛋白质合成能力，与其它组织细胞的差异，及细胞因子对这方面的影响。方法：采用体外培养的ＳＭＣ、ＴＧＣ、ＮＭＣ３种细胞及无血清培养液，应用紫外分光光度仪在２８０ｎｍ波长处，对培养上清中的蛋白含量进行测定，并与加用ＩＬ－１、ＩＬ－６、ＴＮＦ后蛋白质合成的量进行对比观察。结果：正常状态下，ＴＧＣ蛋白合成量最高，ＯＤ值达０．１４，而ＳＭＣ最低，为０．０７９。在加用细胞因子作用４８ｈ后，ＳＭＣ蛋白含量达到０．１１７，提高３０％，而ＴＧＣ、ＮＭＣ却下降１０％～３０％。结论：正常状态下ＳＭＣ合成蛋白质成份较其它细胞少，而细胞因子可刺激ＳＭＣ蛋白质合成增加，这些蛋白成份中可能具有影响关节炎症的物质。
