Lamin B1 (LMNB1) is highly expressed in liver cancer tissues, and its influence and mechanism on the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells were explored by knocking down the expression of the protein. In liver cancer cells, siRNAs were used to knock down LMNB1. Knockdown effects were detected by Western blotting. Changes in telomerase activity were detected by telomeric repeat amplification protocol assay (TRAP) experiments. Telomere length changes were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). CCK8, cloning formation, transwell and wound healing were performed to detect changes in its growth, invasion and migration capabilities. The lentiviral system was used to construct HepG2 cells that steadily knocked down LMNB1. Then the changes of telomere length and telomerase activity were detected, and the cell aging status was detected by SA-β-gal senescence staining. The effects of tumorigenesis were detected by nude mouse subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiments, subsequent histification staining of tumors, SA-β-gal senescence staining, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for telomere analysis and other experiments. Finally, the method of biogenesis analysis was used to find the expression of LMNB1 in clinical liver cancer tissues, and its relationship with clinical stages and patient survival. Knockdown of LMNB1 in HepG2 and Hep3B cells significantly reduced telomerase activity, cell proliferation, migration and invasion abilities. Experiments in cells and tumor formation in nude mice had demonstrated that stable knockdown of LMNB1 reduced telomerase activity, shortened telomere length, senesced cells, reduced cell tumorigenicity and KI-67 expression. Bioinformatics analysis showed that LMNB1 was highly expressed in liver cancer tissues and correlated with tumor stage and patient survival. In conclusion, LMNB1 is overexpressed in liver cancer cells, and it is expected to become an indicator for evaluating the clinical prognosis of liver cancer patients and a target for precise treatment.

Objective To investigate the effects and safety of needle?knife precut papillotomy in diffi?cult common bile duct cannulation of endoscopic retrograde pancreatic duct radiography ( ERCP ) . Methods The data of 104 cases treated with needle?knife precut papillotomy were retrospectively analyzed. The effect of pre incision and short?term complications were observed,and compared with 1326 cases( conventional group) of con?ventional selective intubation in the same period of ERCP. Results Successful cannulation of the bile duct was achieved in 97 of 104 patients who underwent needle?knife precut papillotomy, the total success rate was a?chieved in 93. 3%. The complications of needle?knife precut papillotomy occurred in 8 patients(7. 7%),inclu?ding mild bleeding in 4 cases,mild pancreatitis in 2 cases and billiary infection in 2 cases. There were 1326 ca?ses conventional selective intubation in the same period of ERCP,and 98 cases(7. 4%) with complication. There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the needle knife cut group and the con?ventional selective intubation group(χ2=0. 055,P>0. 05 ) . Conclusion In case of difficult common bile duct cannulation of ERCP,needle?knife precut sphincterotomy surgery can be safely and effectively catch the high ?ERCP the success of treatment,is worthy of wider application.

Objective To study and correlate serum bilirubin and regulatory T cell (Treg) levels in patients with bile duct stone.Methods Flow-cytometry and Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Elisa) were used to study the peripheral blood expression level of Tregs and the bilirubin level in 27 patients with bile duct stones and jaundice.The changes in the expression level of Tregs and the bilirubin level were studied and correlated before and after treatment.Results After treatment,both the peripheral blood bilirubin level,the Tregs expression level and the cell cytokines decreased significantly.The total bilirubin level decreased from (102.8 ± 33.1) mmol/L to (15.3 ± 5.7) mmol/L (P < 0.05),the direct bilirubin level decreased from (38.1 ± 12.8) mmol/L to (5.0 ± 1.6) mmol/L (P <0.05);the percentages of CD4+ CD25 +Foxp3 + T cells in CD4+ T decreased from (4.2 ± 2.0) % to (2.4 ± 1.0) % (P < 0.05).Before treatment,the levels of IL-10 and TGF-β were 171.4 ± 13.7 and 2016 ±657 pg/ml but after treatment,the two cytokines decreased to 92.1 ± 7.4 and 1 686 ± 168 pg/ml,respectively (P < 0.05).Conclusions Patients with bile duct stones and jaundice presented with high expressions of bilirubin and Tregs level.These expressions returned to normal after effective treatment.The Tregs expression level was positively correlated with the bilirubin level.

Objective To investigate the short-term outcome of laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) for morbid obesity complicated with type 2 diabetes. Methods Eight morbidly obese patients with type 2 diabetes underwent LAGB from October 2006 to August 2007. The weight parameters, fasting (FBG) and 2-hour blood glucose (2hBG), medication for diabetes were assessed 1,3, 6 and 9 months after surgery. Results All of the patients lost weight, with a mean body mass index decreased from (38.7±7.5) kg/m2 before LAGB to (30.5±4.3) kg/m2 9 months after LAGB. The FBG and 2hBG were decreased significantly at month 6 and 9 after LAGB, with normal FBG and 2hBG in 4 patients. At month 9 after LAGB, 3 of 5 patients with insulin treatment before LAGB were changed to oral hypoglycemics, 1 was continuously administered with a reduced dose of insulin, and 4 patients stopped any medication. Conclusion LAGB is an effective procedure in the treatment of morbid obesity complicated with type 2 diabetes with a favorable short-term outcome.
