ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) on tumor metastasis in a experimental mouse model of hematogenous metastasis after I/R; we also quantitated expression of matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9) during I/R.Methods An experimental mouse model of metastasis after partial hepatic I/R was designed to determine the effects of I/R on tumor metastasis to liver.Tumor loads were valued 7 days after operation.In addition,tissue analysis for alanine transaminase,aspartate transaminase (AST) and matrix metalloproteinases and 8 h reperfusion were performed.Results After 2 h hepatic reperfusion,ALT and AST in I 45 min group were higher than the sham group and I 30 min group (P <0.05).ALT and AST in the sham group were both a little higher than the normal.ALT and AST in the I 45 min group and I 30 min group at 8 h were both higher than those at 2 h reperfusion(P <0.05).The tumor load (valued by Hepatic replacement area) and the expression of MMP-9 in ischemic lobe in I 45 min group were greater than that after 30 min group and sham group.(P =0.013,P =0.007).There was no statistical difference on tumor load between the right lobe of sham operated mice and the right lobe (non-ischemic lobe) of mice subjected to I/R(P =0.089).Mouse survival were compared among the groups.Mice in Sham group lived longer than I 30 min group (P =0.041).And there were no statistical significance between I 45 min group and I 30 min group (P =0.055).MMP-9 expression in I 45 min group was higher than I 30 min group(P < 0.001).Conclusion Hepatic I/R promotes liver hematogenic metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma in mice through induction of MMP-9 expression.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on enhancing rat islets viability and function in vitro by a pretransplant co-culture.Methods4-week-old Wistar rats were used as donors, bone mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and subcultured. Islets of Wistar rats were isolated and purified by one-step single-layer Histopaque-1077. Then islets were divided into four groups randomly, 2 groups co-cultured with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) (one using low-glucose medium; the other using high-glucose medium ); 2 groups were cultured alone (low-glucose medium; high-glucose medium), each group was further stratified into 3 subgroups(3, 7, 14 d); the survival and functionality of these islets were observed and evaluated. The amount of glucose stimulated secreted insulin were measured wth a rat/mouse insulin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit and stimulation index was also calculated.ResultsCompared with those not co-cultured, islets co-cultured with MSCs demonstrated significantly higher survival rates and viability both in 3th, 7th and 14th day ( P < 0. 01 ); furthermore, cocultured islets revealed higher levels of glucose stimulated insulin secretion and secretion indexes in 7th day (P<0.01).ConclusionRat islet cells co-cultured with MSCs have longer in vitro survival and better functions.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value of modified pancreatoduodenectomy in the treatment of ampullary carcinoma by comparing the efficacy of pancreatoduodenectomy with preservation of ascending portion of duodenum and that of Whipple procedure. Methods The clinical data of 133 patients with ampullary carcinoma who had been admitted to the Qilu Hospital from 1990 to 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 133 patients, 88 received Whipple procedure (group A) and 45 received pancreatoduedenectomy with preservation of ascending portion of duodenum (group B). The preoperative condition of the patients and short- and long-term efficacy of the 2 procedures were compared by Fisher exact probability, t test, chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Log-rank test, and the differences between the efficacy of the 2 procedures were compared. Results The operation time, time of gastrointestinal function recovery, hospital stay and ratio of patients with blood transfusion were (366±111) minutes, (7.4±1.4) days, (24±9) days and 76% (67/88) in group A, and (325±32)minutes, (4.3±1.4)days, (31±14)days, 42% (19/45) in group B, with significant difference between the 2 groups (t = 2.34, 2.08, 1.98 ; χ2 = 14.99, P < 0.05). The medium survival time of patients in groups A and B were (19.0±1.5)months and (16.9±1.7) months, with no significant difference between the 2 groups (χ2 = 0.46, P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of postoperative complications between the 2 groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions Pancreateduodenectomy with preservation of ascending portion of duodenum can be applied for patients with ampullary carcinoma.

ABSTRACT

Objective To detect the effect of cell density off both integrin αγβ6 expression and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)secretion in colon cancer cells. Methods Flow cytometry was applied to analyze αγβ6 expression in human WiDr colon cancer cell lines and human HaCaT keratinocyte cells, respectively,at high-and low-cell density culture.The MMP-9 aetivity level for various coloIl cancer cell lines, WiDr and SW480 cells at high-and low-cell density culture was analyzed using Biotrak MMP-9 activity assay and Gelatin Zymography assay, respectively. Results High cell density significantly enhances integrin αγβ6 expression for WiDr cells expressing αγβ6 compared with low density,but no increase was observed for human keratinocyte HaCaT cells. Biotrak MMP-9 assay indicated that the amount of MMP-9 secreted per cell for WiDr and SW480 B6 cells at high cell density culture was(3.3±1.2)×10-7ng/cell and(27.2±3.0)× 10-7ng/cell respectively; However,at low cell density it was(1.8±0.7)× 10-7ng/cell and(10.9±2.0)×10-7 ng/cell,respectively. It was 2-3-fold higher for WiDr and SW480 β6 cells at high cell density compared with that at low cell density, but no density-dependent increase observed for SW480 wild cells lack αγβ6 expression(t=0.47,P>0.05),MMP-9 secretion for SW480 wild cells was(3.9±1.7)× 10-7 ng/cell at hish cell density and(3.8 ±0.7)×10-7 ng/cell at low eell density(P>0.05),respectively. Gelatin zymography assay also indicated that the level of MMP-9 in SW480 B6 cells expressing αγβ6 was evidently higher at high density than at low density, however no density-dependent increase observed for SW480 wild cells and HaCaT cells. Conclusions High cell density induces integrin αγβ6 expression and promotes MMP-9 secretion in colon cancer cells, which constitutes the basis for a self-perpetuating system of tumor infiltrating growth in colon cancer progression.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the long-term effect of combined intestine/auxiliary liver transplantation in rat.Methods Male Lewis rats were used. Total small bowel and 60 % liver were transplanted en bloc with an aortic segment that contained the celiac axis and superior mesenteric artery ensuring the blood supply to the graft. The end-to-side anastomosis was made between donor infrahepatic vena cava (IHVC) and recipient IHVC. The recipient small bowel was resected and the intestine continuity was restored. Sham control (laporotomy only) and transplantation groups were included. Ten rats in each group were followed-up for 18 months and then sacrificed. Liver function tests, terminal deoxynuleotidyl transferase-mediated 2'-deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate (dUTP) nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) staining of liver tissue were evaluated.Results Sixteen rats survived over the operation. There were no significant differences in liver function tests between the sham control group and transplantation group. The grafted liver was hypertrophic and native liver did not regenerate 18 months following transplantation with an increased liver/body weight ratio. TUNEL-staining showed no significant differences among grafted liver, native liver of the recipient rat in transplantation group and the liver of the rat in control group. PCNA-staining revealed that the native liver in transplantation group had a lower proportion of TUNEL-positive hepatocytes. Conclusion This experimental study confirmed the long-term consequences of combined intestine-auxiliary liver transplantation, and the results suggest that liver/body weight ratio can be increased.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of patients with benign tumor of duodenum(BTD). Methods Clinico-pathological data of 24 patients with BTD treated by surgery in our department in recent 21 years were analyzed retrospectively. Among the 24 cases, 18 cases underwent local resection, 4 segmental duodenectomy, 1 subtotal gastrectomy and 1 pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy. Results Abdominal pain, digestive tract hemorrhage and duodenal obstruction were the common clinical manifestations of BTD. The correct diagnostic rates of air barium double contrast radiography and duodenoscopy were 82.4% and 93.3% respectively. The result of surgical treatment was satisfactory, except 1 patient who died of acute myocardial infarction 6 days after the operation. Of the 24 patients, the pathological examination showed as follows 8 had a villous adenoma, 6 gastrointestinal stromal tumor, 5 Brunner′s gland adenoma, 2 leiomyoma, 2 multiple adenomas in familial adenomatous polyposis, 1 hemangioma. Conclusions Air barium double contrast radiography and duodenoscopy are mainsteps for the diagnosis of BTD. The best treatment is surgical resection.

ABSTRACT

Objective : The patients with inguinal hernia were treated with plug mesh hernia repair. Methods:The hernia sacs were isolated and dissected back to the internal ring. The unoperated sacs were allowed to drop back through the internal ring into the abdominal cavity. A cone-shaped mesh hernia plug is inserted tapered end through ring and placed into position just beneath the crura. All our repairs were reinforced a second piece of flat was placed from the pubic tubercle, overlying the direct space. Results : Com-paired with conventional suture surgical techniques, a plug repair uses less disscection and ensures tenssion free hernioplusty. Conclusion : We believe that the two factors are the most important reseasons for greater patients confort, rapit rehabilitation, decreased recurrence and lessened overall complication rates with the mesh hernia plug techniques.
