OBJECTIVE: To explore curative effect with pedicle flap of nasal septum-basis nasi and temporal muscucofascial flap to repair nasal septal perforation. METHOD: Dissecting mucoperichondrium and mucoperioseptum around the perforation and taking dowm and out xia-ward to the floor of nasal cavity to make a inferior extremity pedicle flap. Then,the flap was tumbled and sutured onto raw surface of contralateral side through perforation. Reapplicating autoallergic temporal musculofascial flap to repair another side perforation. RESULT: Repairing perforation Sin twelve cases were sucessfully healed in endoscope. CONCLUSION The pedicle flap of nasal septum-basis nasi and temporal muscucofascial flap is easy to acquire and no rejection. The flap has good blood supplying, high survival rate and provides adequate transplantating materail to repair comparatively large perforation.

ObjectiveTo test a three-dimensional dose verification system,which reconstructing dose to anatomy based on modeling and online measurements ( RDBMOM ),and to evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of its application in clinical intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) quality assurance.Methods Phantom plans of regular and irregular fields were selected for the testing.All test plans were implemented and the dose distributions were measured using the thimble ion-chamber and two-dimensional ion-chamber array,the accuracy of RDBMOM were then evaluated by comparing the corresponding results.Two practical treated nasopharyngeal carcinoma IMRT plans were verified with RDBMOM and the clinic significancy were valued.ResultsCompared with measurements of the thimble ion-chamber,deviations of RDBMOM were within 1％ in all tested cases except small field of 3 cm ×3 cm.The largest deviation of reconstructed dose in IMRT cases was 2.12％.The dose profile reconstructed by RDBMOM coincided with the measurement using two-dimensional ion-chamber array.The γ rates (3％/3 mm) were 94.56％ - 100％.The RDBMOM verification of IMRT cases shown that the γ rate ＞ 99％ in total and ＞ 98％ in planning target volume,deviation in D95 ＜0.4％,but the largest deviations in mean dose of the parotids and lens were 2.97％ and 59.58％ respectively.ConclusionsAccuracy of the tested system satisfies the demand of IMRT dose verification.RDBMOM is able to provide information of volumetric dosimctry and anatomical location of dose error,which is benefit for evaluating the clinical value of verification results.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of content and entrapment efficiency of HIV-1 virus in-fection factor Vif inhibitor VEC-5 liposomes. Methods:VEC-5 liposomes were prepared by a method of freeze-drying and reconstruc-tion. The separation of free drug from the liposomes was achieved by ultracentrifugation, and an HPLC method was used to determine the content and entrapment efficiency of VEC-5 liposomes. Results:The linear range of VEC-5 was 20-100 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 0). The average recovery was 100. 25% and RSD was 0. 93%(n=9). The content of three batches of VEC-5 liposomes was 98. 63%, 100. 43% and 102. 65%, respectively within the range of 90%-110%, and the entrapment efficiency was 94. 89%, 93. 68% and 94. 56%, respectively, which was above 90%. Conclusion:The method is accurate and reliable, which can be used to determine the content and entrapment efficiency of VEC-5 liposomes.

AIM:To observe the effect of folic acid(FA)on C2C12 myoblast proliferation and differentia-tion,and to explore its mechanism.METHODS:During the proliferation stage,C2C12 myoblasts were treated with vari-ous concentrations of FA(0,2.5,5,10 and 20 μmol/L).The cell status was observed under a microscope,cell viability was detected using the MTT method,and cell proliferation was assessed using the EdU method.In the differentiation stage,C2C12 cells were divided into control(Ctrl)group(0 μmol/L FA)and FA group(10 μmol/L FA).On day 2 or 4 of differentiation,immunofluorescence staining and Western blot were employed to detect the expression of myoblast differen-tiation-related proteins,myoblast determination protein 1(MyoD),myogenin(MyoG)and myosin heavy chain(MyHC).The myotubule formation in each group was analyzed.On day 4 of differentiation,C2C12 cells were treated with FA for 0,1,3 and 6 h,and the protein levels of p-JNK,JNK,p-p38 MAPK and p38 MAPK at each time point were detected by Western blot.Additionally,C2C12 cells after 4-day differentiation were divided into Ctrl group,FA group,FA+ SP600125(specific inhibitor of JNK)group,and FA+SB203580(specific inhibitor of p38)group.The cells in FA+ SP600125 and FA+SB203580 groups were treated with 10 μmol/L SP600125 or SB203580 for 1 h,followed by treatment with 10 μmol/L FA for 24 h.The cells in FA group were treated with 10 μmol/L FA for 24 h,while the cells in Ctrl group were left untreated.The protein levels of p-JNK,JNK,p-p38 MAPK,p38 MAPK and MyHC were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:(1)Compared with 0 μmol/L FA group,the number of the cells in other concentration groups in-creased,cell viability was raised(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),and the rate of EdU positive cells increased(P＜0.05).(2)Com-pared with Ctrl group,the expression levels of MyoD,MyoG and MyHC in FA group were increased(P＜0.05),and the myotube fusion index was raised(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(3)Compared with 0 h group,the ratios of p-JNK/JNK and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK were elevated after FA treatment for 1,3 and 6 h(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),and showed a trend of gradual increase with the extension of treatment time.(4)After FA treatment,the ratios of p-JNK/JNK and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK,and the expression of MyHC were elevated(P＜0.01).Treatment with SP600125 decreased the ratio of p-JNK/JNK and the expression of MyHC(P＜0.05),while SB203580 intervention cut down the ratio of p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK and the expression of MyHC(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:Folic acid can promote the differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts by activating the JNK/p38 MAPK signaling pathway.

Colorectal cancer （CRC） is a malignant tumor of the intestinal tract with changes in bowel habits， blood in the stool， and pain as the main clinical manifestations. With the change in lifestyle and diet structure in recent years， the incidence of CRC has been increasing year by year. The pathogenesis of CRC is closely related to abnormal immune response and chronic inflammation， intestinal microbial dysbiosis， and the production of oncogenic metabolites. There is a two-way communication between the intestinal microbiota and the body's immunity， which not only plays a key role in maintaining the body's health but also has a close relationship with the development of diseases. An increasing number of studies have shown that abnormal immune responses accelerate the disease process by producing inflammatory factors， causing chronic inflammation in the body， disrupting the intestinal mucosal barrier， and increasing mucosal permeability， thus resulting in dysbiosis of the intestinal microbial ecology and a large number of pathogenic microorganisms and their metabolites. In addition， dysbiosis of intestinal microbes， by suppressing the normal immune response， leads to the disruption of multiple metabolic pathways in the body， affecting the internal and external stress response of the intestine， inducing inflammation， and thus producing disease. Therefore， the complex crosstalk mechanism between the immune response and intestinal microbial axis is closely related to the development of CRC. Based on traditional Chinese medicine theory and clinical research， it was found that dietary factors are an important causative factor in the development of CRC. The deficiency of positive energy is the root cause of the disease， and damp-heat accumulation is the key pathogenesis. Through modern medical and biological research， it is believed that abnormal immune response is the microscopic manifestation of damp-heat entrapment， while intestinal microbial dysbiosis is the biological basis of toxic injection into the large intestine， and in the pathogenesis of CRC， the imbalance of immune response-intestinal microbial axis is compatible with damp-heat accumulation in traditional Chinese medicine. This study aims to explore the biological connotation of CRC due to damp-heat accumulation from the immune response-intestinal microbial axis， so as to interpret the pathogenesis of CRC due to damp-heat accumulation with objective data and provide new ideas and theoretical basis for the pathogenesis and treatment strategies of CRC due to damp-heat accumulation.
