Objective To explore clinic effect and advantages of the free arm lateral neurocutaneous flap in repairing cutaneous defects of opisthenar.Methods Between July,2012 and December,2013,12 patients with skin and soft tissue defects in opisthenar caused by trauma factor,accident,machine injury,hot crush injury etc were treated with free arm lateral neurocutaneous flap at our institution.Vessels both in recipient and donor site were detect-ed by color Doppler ultrasound preoperatively.Relative cutaneous nervers were reserved in the flap during selective operation.The flap size resected range from 6 cm × 4 cm to 10 cm × 6 cm.The posterior cutaneous nerve of the forearm were included in the flap to restore sensory sesation after transection.The wound in the donor site was closed in in-tradermal suture primarily.Postoperative algesia,touch,temperature sensation,Weber test of flap were tested and reco-rded.The critia of follow-up in this study were donor site morbidity,abnormal sensations,functional outcomes and sat-isfaction.Results The success rate was 100 percent in the series cases.The average length of follow up was 35 months (range,24 to 41 months).The wound in recipient area healed primarily and flaps showed no pigmentation but fine overall appearance,texture,and elasticity.The functional recovery of protective sensation was S3+ in 4 cases,S3 in 6,S2 in 2.Patients with liner scar in donor site were higly satisfied with the flaps for the sake of no significant joint functional outcomes.In terms of sensory sesation,the excellent and good rate of flap reached to 83 percent.Conclusion The free arm lateral flap represented a constant vascular anatomy,rich blood supply.Easy dissection,pliable texture,skin colour close to dorsum of hand and the possibility to be innervated through the posterior cutaneous nerve of the arm acceptable donor side morbidity provide a good option for the reconstruction of cutaneous defects of opisthena.

Objective To examine the effect of valproic acid (VPA) on concentration of Intracellular Ca2+ and on cell apoptosis in spinal cord motor neurons after brachial plexus injury in rats. Methods Totally 210 adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into Sham operation group (disposed the brachial plexus nerve root, but not cutted it off), control group (rats with brachial plexus nerve root amputating wound)and VPA group(rats with brachial plexus nerve root amputating wound and fed by VPA water),with 70 rats in each group.The specimens were taken at 12,24,48,72 h,1,2 and 4 weeks after operation.Whole-cell patch-clamp recording techniques were used to assayed the L-type calcium channel of motoneuron and monitored the changes in intracellular concentration of Ca2+ with spectrofluorometer. The motoneruron apoptosis was detected by TUNEL. Results The set of indicators did not change in the sham group.From 12h to 1 weeks after the operation, the electrical current of L-type calcium channel and the intra-cellular Ca2+ concentration of the neuron were obviously more in control group than in sham operation group (P <0.05). From 12 h to 4 weeks after the injury, there were more apoptosis neurons in control group than in sham operation group (P < 0.05). There was no obviously difference in electrical current of L-type calcium channel between the VPA group and the control group at each time point(P > 0.05).Compared to the control group,the intra-cellular Ca2+ concentration was lower in VPA group from 48 h to 1 week after nerve injury (P < 0.05) ; the number of apoptosis neurons were less in VPA group from 24 h to 2 weeks after the injury (P < 0.05). Conclusions Brachial plexus nerve root amputating wound in rats can increase the intra-cellular Ca2+ concentration and apoptosis of the motor neuron.VPA can reduce the intra-cellular Ca2+ concentration and apoptosis,but has no effect on the L-type calcium channel of the motor neuron.

Objective Shunaoxin Dropping Pills (SDPs), a Chinese patent medicine, has been used widely in China for the treatment of headache, amnesia, and insomnia. The aim of the present study is to observe the effect of SDPs on inducing angiogenesis and neurogenesis in vitro. Methods The present testing system using the serum obtained from animals ig treated with SDPs and a co-culture system in vitro was used to investigate if SDPs promotes brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) tube formation and neural differentiation of neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs), which plays important roles in angiogenesis and neurogenesis. Results The SDPs serum sampled from rats ig treated with SDPs for 3 d dose-dependently promoted the tube like structure formation of cultured BMECs, and enhanced the fraction of MAP-2 positive cells of NSPCs, which co-cultured with the BMECs and astrocyte. In addition, there was no significant change in the percentage of glial fibrillary acidic protein positive cells. Conclusion Our results show that SDPs serum can induce neural differentiation and BMECs tube formation in vitro.

Objective:To explore the expressions of Disabled-1 (Dab1 )in human breast epithelial cells and breast cancer cells,and to clarify its role in cell cycle.Methods:Real-time PCR was used to analyze the Dab1 mRNA expressions in breast epithelial cells MCF-10A and breast cancer cells MCF-7,BT-549,and MDA-MB-231. The Dab1 protein expressions in those cells were tested by Western blotting method. The BT-549 cells at logarithmic growth phase were divided into control,pKH3,and pKH3-Dab1 groups;the cell cycle was investigated by flow cytometry.Results:The Real-time PCR results showed that the Dab1 mRNA expression levels in MCF-7 cells (0.504 ± 0.037),BT-549 cells (0.302 ± 0.027),and MDA-MB-231 cells (0.330 ± 0.031 )were reduced compared with MCF-10A cells (0.998±0.020)(P <0.05).The Western blotting results showed that the Dab1 protein expression levels in breast cancer cells MCF-7 (0.134±0.014),BT-549 (0.076±0.01),and MDA-MB-231 (0.074±0.005)were reduced compared with MCF-10A cells (0.227±0.021)(P <0.05).Compared with control group and pKH3 group,the cell cycle in pKH3-Dab1 group was inhibited at G1 phase detected by flow cytometry analysis. Conclusion:The expression of Dab1 is down-regulated in breast cancer cells,and the over-expression of Dab1 can inhibit the cell cycle at G1 phase.
