Objective To detected the motor cortex reorganization and compared the influence on reorganization process as regard to different transfer modes of contralateral seventh cervical nerve root (C7)in young rats model of total brachial plexus root avulsion. Methods The young Sprague-Dawley rats model of total brachial plexus root avulsion was established. The left radix dorsalis and radix ventralis from the fifth cervical nerve root (C5) to the first thoracic nerve root (T1)were exposed and the roots from C5 to T1 were avulsed from the spinal cord. Then, the contralateral C7 transfer operation was performed. Three different operative modes were applied randomly which included contralateral C7 transference to anterior division of the upper trunk (group A, n=30), to both musculocutaneous and median nerves (group B, n=30), or to median nerve (group C, n=30). The movement evocation of motor cortex was measured by intracortical microstimula-tion in both hemispheres, and functional reorganization was assessed dynamically in 1.5, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after operation. Results After contralateral C7 transference, the ipsilateral motor cortex initially acti- vated the injured limb at 1.5 month, and subsequently the motor cortex of both hemispheres activated the in-jured limb at the 3rd and 6th month. The injured limb was activated mainly by the contralateral motor cortex in group A at the 9th month. The contralateral motor cortex exclusively controlled the injured limb in all three groups at the 12th month after the operation. Meanwhile, the extent of functional reorganization was better in group B than that of group C. Conclusion After contralateral C7 transfer operation, motor cortex in charging injured limb developed a transhemispheric functional reorganization in young rats with total brachial plexus root avulsion. Different operative modes contributed to the functional reorganization of motor cortex. Transferring contralateral C7 to anterior division of the upper trunk or to both musculocutaneous and median nerves provided better functional reorganization than to median nerve.

Objective Through detecting the levels of von willebrand factor (vWF) ,vWF-cleaving protease (vWF-cp)before and after percataneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease ,to evaluate the relationship between them .Methods According to the results of coronary angiography ,study objects were divided into control group (normal) and PCI group ( the diagnosis of coronary heart disease with PCI operation ) .Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was carrout to determin the levels of plasma vWF concentration and vWF-cp activity in plasma and statistical analysis .Results The pre-operative ,postoperative vWF levels in plasma in PCI group were significantly higher than that in the normal control group ;The plasma vWF levels after PCI were significantly higher than that in the group before PCI (P< 0 .05) ;vWF-cp level of the PCI group were lower than in the control group ,and postoperation is lower than preoperation ( P < 0 .05) .With the coronary artery lesion worsen ,the plasma level of vWF increased ,while the level of vWF-cp activity decreased .Conclusion vWF and vWF-cp levels with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis and thrombosis risk was increased in different decreased ,which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndromes .Changes of vWF and vWF-cp level after PCI indicate that interventional therapy can increase the risk of thrombosis to some extent .

Objective To investigate the difference of the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor and its receptor content of proximal neurons after nerve grafting was used to reconstruct C5 root in young rats.Methods Model of C5 resection was set up in 12 18-day-old SD rats.Experimental animals were divided in to two groups, one group for C5 resection, another for nerve grafting to reconstruct the C5 defection.At 4 weeks postoperatively, the immunohistochemical staining was performed and the number of GDNF and GFRa1 immunohistochemical positive neurons were calculated respectively.Results The number of GDNF positive neurons in spinal cord and dorsal root ganglion of C5 repairing group was 786.3 ± 176.84 and 2997.0 ±357.99, and that of C5 resection group was 335.0 ± 49.50 and 1632.0 ± 305.55.On the other hand, the number of GFRa1 positive neurons in spinal cord and dorsal root ganglion of C5 repairing group was 787.5 ±178.55 and 3111.0 ± 445.72, that of the other group was 397.3 ± 41.78 and 1588.3 ± 229.00.The statistical analysis result showed GDNF and GFR immunohistochemical positive neurons in spinal cord and dorsal root ganglion of C5 repairing group was statistically more than that of C5 resection group(P < 0.01 ).Conclusion The neuronal protective effect of nerve grafting after reconstructing brachial plexus nerve injury in young rats may be attributed to the increase of GDNF and its receptor GFRa1 content of proximal neuron.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the inhibiting effects of mitomycin C（MMC） on fibroblasts of human pterygium （HPF） in vitro．MethodsThe fibroblasts derived from the 5 th to 8 th generation of the cultured tissues in human pterygium．These fibroblasts were exposed to culture plates with MMC at 6 gradient concentrations，adjusting the concentration value of the culture medium to 105，104，103，102，10 and 1 μg/L．The cells had been treated with PBS in the control group．After 48 h of incubation，the absorbency had been determined individually by MTT［3-（4，5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2，5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide］ method.The inhibitory rates were calculated accordingly．All the data were analyzed with student t test and linear regression．ResultsThe extensive breakage of fibroblasts was observed．There was a statistical difference between the tested group and control group in absorbency (P＜0.05)，especially at the concentrations of more than 100 μg/L (P＜0.01)．The degree of growth inhibition increased with exposure of cells to MMC over 48 h．It showed that there is a positive correlation between the doses of MMC and the antiproliferative effects on HPF．ConclusionMMC significantly inhibites the proliferation of HPF in a dose-dependent manner．

The use of the accessory nerve as a donor is one of the best possibilities for treatment of the brachial plexus in case of paralysis due to root avulsion. In this paper, a brief history of the use of accessory nerve tran sfer for treatment of brachial plexus injury and recent development in the anato my of accessory nerve are introduced. The nerve transfer methods and the effects of the accessory nerve are discussed in particular. The progress in and the dev elopment trend of the accessory nerve transfer methods are also analyzed. It is advisable that the accessory nerve is transferred to restore the suprascapular n erve so as to obtain shoulder abduction. And it is a clinical trend that the dis tal terminal branch of the accessory nerve is used and the function of the upper part of the trapezius muscle is preserved in the transfer. At last, the factors affecting functional outcome in accessory nerve transfer are discussed.

Cancer cells can secrete programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) to bind with inhibitory regulatory protein of programmed death 1 (PD-1) which lies on T-cell lymphocyte.Consequently,the activity of the T cells reduces,and the apoptosis cells increase.It's one of the pathways of newly discovered tumor immune escape.Primary hepatic cancer is one of the common malignant tumors of digestive system and closely related to viral hepatitis B in China.PD-1/PD-L1 pathway plays an important role in tumorigenesis and development of primary liver cancer.In this paper,the research updates of PD-1/PD-L1 in primary hepatic carcinoma were summarized.

Cholangiolocellular carcinoma (CLC) is a rare type of primary liver cancer,which is thought to originate from hepatic progenitor cells.CLC is categorized as a different tumor type from the conventional intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (cICC) due to its unique histological and embryological features.This review summarizes the clinical,radiological and pathological characteristics and surgical outcomes of cICC and CLC.This pathological classification may provide important clinical implications for the treatment and outcome evaluation of this disease.

Objective To compare the differences of chemotaxis at the tissue specific level and topographic specificity level during peripheral nerve regeneration after the severance injury of the sciatic nerve in rats of different ages. Methods 40 specific pathogen free Sprague Dawley 18 day old rats (called as young group) were chosen to correspond as nearly as possible to humans of about 1 year of age. 40 adult rats (called as adult group) were chosen to correspond as adult humans. The tissue and topographic specificity models were set up respectively after the severance of the sciatic nerve at the right side. Electromyography and morphological evaluations were conducted for determination of the nerve regeneration on 3 and 6 weeks postoperatively. Results On 3 and 6 weeks after operation, the recovery rate of nerve conduction velocity, the exact rate of nerve regeneration, the ratio of nerve conduction velocity between tibial and peroneal nerve, the ratio of amplitude of CMAP between tibial and peroneal nerve, the ratio of the number of myelinated axon between the tibial and peroneal nerve at the distal part in the young group were lower than those in the adult group respectively. There were statistically significant differences between the 2 groups. The recovery rate of amplitude in compound muscle action potential (CMAP) was lower in the young group than in the adult group, but the difference was not significant enough. Conclusion Since the tissue and topographic specificities in the young rats are both inferior to those in the adult rats, co contraction between agonists and antagonists may result from cross innervation during the peripheral nerve regeneration.
