In this paper, the SV40 viral enhancer is coupled to a human renin promoter/chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene construct, to determine whether promoter regulatory elements can be identified in the context of enhanced transcription in the normally non-renin-expressing HeLa cell line. The present results indicate that the SV40 enhancer can overcome tissue-specificity of the human renin promoter, and confer correctly initiated transcriptional activity to HeLa cells. Analysis of a series of 5'-end deletions of the human renin promoter linked to the CAT gene and SV40 enhancer identified negative regulatory elements between positions-275 and -225, and between-142 and -102 of the human renin promoter, as well as a positive regulatory element between -225 and -142. Thus, studies of renin promoter regulatory elements need not be limited to renin-expressing cells, but can be performed in non-renin-expressing cells with the addition of an enhancer. This strategy can be generally applicable to the study of tissue-specific gene regulation in cases where there are no specific cell lines available.","PeriodicalId":22311,"journal":{"name":"The Bulletin of Tokyo Medical and Dental University","volume":"40 2","pages":"79-91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19375666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mechanical properties of the artificial teeth by the static compression test and the impact test. Specimens were the lower first molar porcelain and resin teeth (Livdent FB-20 teeth by G. C. Co., Tokyo, Japan). All were of the same shape. In the static compression test, the fracture load and deformation of the artificial teeth were measured with an Instron-type universal testing machine at a cross-head speed of 1.0 mm/min. Elastic modulus, ultimate strength and absorbed energy were calculated. In the impact test, the acceleration of a falling impactor was measured with a drop impact apparatus. The load applied to the specimen was equivalent to 300N. Absorbed energy and deformation were calculated. The resin teeth showed a lower elastic modulus, higher fracture toughness and shock-absorbing ability than the porcelain teeth. Resin teeth should be selected when the first requisite is high shock-absorbing ability, and porcelain teeth should be selected when the first requisite is high masticating efficiency.","PeriodicalId":22311,"journal":{"name":"The Bulletin of Tokyo Medical and Dental University","volume":"8 1","pages":"13-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78552996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
