AIM:To study the changes of ?-adrenoceptors in peripheral lymphocytes at different stages of asthma. METHODS:?-adrenoceptors in peripheral lymphocytes, cAMP and cGMP levels in blood plasma were measured by radioligand binding assay and radioimmunoassay.RESULTS:Bmax and Kd of ?-adrenoceptors in asthma at remission stage were markedly higher than that in normal subjects, while cAMP levels in blood plasma were not different between them. Bmax of ?-adrenoceptors and cAMP levels in blood plasma in asthma at acute exacerbation stage were significantly lower than that in normal subjects, Kds between these two groups were not much different. There was no correlation between ?-adrenoceptors, cAMP and cGMP levels in blood plasma and ventilatory functions.CONCLUSIONS:Changes of ?-adrenoceptors in asthma rather be a pathological change accompanied by the course of the disease than a primary defect.

Six hundred and eight fungi strains were isolated from seventy-eight samples of mangrove plants and soil that collected from Qinglan harbor. Cyctotoxic activity was detected by observing the growth inhibition or killing of the tumor cells under microscope. The result showed that 81 strains (about 13.32% of the total strains isolated) displayed cytotoxic activity against B16 tumor cell. The most fungi strains were isolated from mangrove plant Sonneratia alba, and most of cytotoxic active fungi strains were isolated from mangrove plant Heritiera littoralis.

Objective To report the clinical results and the advantages/disadvantages of anterolateral thigh flap (ALT) and forearm flap (FAF) in reconstruction of head and neck defect after cancer ablation. Methods 20 FAFs and 12 ALTs were performed to repair the head and neck tumor ablation defects. Of the 20 FAFs, 7 were used for repair of the through and through buccal defects, 4 for circumferential bypopharyngeal defects, 2 for plate defects, 1 for parotid area skin defect, 4 for floor of the mouth defects, and 2 for defect, of the base of the tongue, while of the 12 ALTs, 3 were used for repair of the defects of the base of the tongue, 4 for plate defects, and 5 for the floor of the mouth and/or lower gum defects. Survival of the flaps, function of the recipient site, and impact to the donor site were compared between these two groups to analyze the advantages/disadvantsges and key technique details of these two flaps. Results 19 FAFs totally survived. Vascular crisis occurred in 2 cases of FAF, of which 1 flap survived after conservative treatment, while the other 1 developed partial necrosis. All the 12 ALTs survived, without vascular crisis. 2 of the 14 planed ALTs were abandoned and replaced by FAFs, of which 1 because of absence of the perforating branch and the other 1 because of injury of the perforating branch. Secondary defects of the ALTs could be closed primarily, while secondary defects of the FAFs should be closed with skin grafts. Conlusion Both ALT and FAF can be performed with high survival rate. Each has its own advantages. Selection of the donor site deponds on situation of the defect and purpose of the reconstruction.

[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVEThis study was designed to compare the quality of life between patients who
underwent a tongue reconstruction with radial forearm flap (RFF) and infrahyoid myocutaneous flap (IHMCF) after hemiglossectomy for their tongue cancers, and to figure out an optimal reconstructive method for the defects resulted from hemiglossectomy.METHODSA non-randomized case-control study was performed on 24 patients with tongue squamous cell carcinoma who underwent a standard hemiglossectomy combined with perfectly tongue reconstruction from June 2005 to June 2012. All of the cases were without tongue base invasion. Of the 24 cases, 19 had T2 disease, 5 had T3 disease, and they were divided into RFF group (n=10) and IHMCF group (n=14). The quality of life were evaluated one year after operation using EORTC-QLQ30 and FACT-H&N35 and compared between the two groups.RESULTSThe scores were comparable between the two group with regard to all domains of EORTC-QLQ30,with all P values>0.05.The scores of swallowing(P=0.005), speech (P=0.008), teeth (P=0.014), and cough (P=0.009) domains were significantly higher in IHMCF group than in RFF group, with P value of 0.005, 0.008, 0.014 and 0.009 respectively, while the other domains of FACT-H&N35 were comparable between the two groups, with allP values>0.05.CONCLUSIONOverall quality of life was similar in the two groups. Oral function domains were better in IHMCF group than in RFF group. When guarantee of flap survival is available, IHMCF could be used as a good alternative flap to RFF in tongue reconstruction after hemiglossectomy.
