Exploration of the Clinical Effect of Different Autotransfusion Methods on Patients With Femoral Shaft Fracture Surgery.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical effect of predeposit, salvage, and hemodilution autotransfusion on patients with femoral shaft fracture (FSF) surgery. METHODS: Selected patients with FSF were randomly divided into three groups: intraoperative blood salvage autotransfusion, preoperative hemodilution autohemotransfusion, and predeposit autotransfusion. Five days after the operation, the body temperature, heart rate, blood platelet (PLT), and hemoglobin (Hb) of patients were determined. The concentrations of EPO and GM-CSF in the three groups were calculated by ELISA. The content of CD14+ monocytes was calculated by FCM assay. The growth time and condition of the patient's callus were determined at the 30th, 45th, and 60th day after operation. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between EPO, GM-CSF, CD14+ mononuclear content, callus growth, and autotransfusion methods. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in body temperature and heart rate between the three groups (p > 0.05). PLT and Hb in the Predeposit group were markedly increased compared with that in the Salvage and Hemodilution groups. The concentrations of EPO and GM-CSF in the Predeposit group were markedly increased compared with that in the Salvage and Hemodilution groups. The content of CD14+ monocytes in the Predeposit group was significantly higher than that in the Salvage and Hemodilution groups. Predeposit autotransfusion promotes callus growth more quickly. CONCLUSION: Predeposit autotransfusion promoted the recovery of patients with FSF after the operation more quickly than salvage autotransfusion and hemodilution autotransfusion.

Intraoperative blood auto-transfusion restrained the malignancy of Liver Cancer via regulating functions of tumor cells and Kuffer cells.

The role of IBA in regulating the recovery of liver cancer was investigated using a rat model of liver cancer and an intraoperative blood return model (IBA). SD rats were used to construct the IBA model. Kupffer cells were isolated from liver cancer tissues, and their biological characteristics were analyzed by flow cytometry. Comet assay was used to detect DNA damage in tumor cells; clone formation assay and transwell assay were used to detect tumor cell proliferation and migration ability. Western blot analysis was used to determine the changes in related signaling pathways. After the IBA treatment, the production of KCs was significantly promoted in rat liver cancer tissues, and the expression levels of cell cycle arrest proteins P53, AEN and CDKN1A were also significantly increased. In tumor cells, IBA induced cell cycle arrest and cellular DNA damage in a p53-mediated manner. In addition, the proliferation and migration of cancer cells were also significantly inhibited. Similar to the in vivo data, the expression of TP53, AEN and CDKN1A was also up-regulated. Our study showed that IBA can inhibit the malignant transformation of hepatocellular carcinoma by modulating the function-dependent p53-mediated pathway of tumor cells and KCs.

Autologous blood transfusion impedes glycolysis in macrophages to inhibit red blood cell injury in type 2 diabetes through PI3K/Akt/PKM2 signaling axis.

AIMS: To explore the effect and mechanism of autologous blood transfusion impeding glycolysis in macrophages and inhibiting red blood cells (RBCs) injury in type 2 diabetes through PI3K/Akt/PKM2 signaling axis. METHODS: Cell transfection were performed and diabetic mice model was constructed. The group were divided into control (NC) and type 2 diabetes model (T2D). T2D model mice were injected with preserved autologous blood, si-PI3K, si-PKM2, si-NC Tran+T2D, (Tran+T2D+si-PI3K, Tran+T2D si-PKM2, Tran+T2D+si-NC) through tail vein. The anti-oxidative effects of transfusion of autologous blood in CD14+ monocytes were detected. The expression of PI3K/Akt/PKM2 protein in CD14+ monocytes were examined by western blot. Effect of autologous blood transfusion ameliorating RBCs injury by regulating PI3K and PKM2 in T2D mice were detected. RESULTS: Effects on oxidative stress in T2D mice were all overturned after autologous blood transfusion in T2D mice. The results manifested that the levels of PI3K, pAkt and PKM2 were downregulated, while the expression of HIF-1α was upregulated in CD14+ monocytes from T2D mice, whereas these influences were all effectively reversed by autologous blood transfusion in T2D mice. The survival rate of RBCs in the serum of T2D mice was declined in the serum of T2D mice, while the effect was reversed by the autologous blood transfusion. CONCLUSION: Autologous blood transfusion can reduce glycolysis in macrophages and inhibit the release of inflammatory factors through the PI3K/PKM2 signal axis, thereby inhibiting red blood cell damage and improving the oxygen-carrying capacity and survival activity of RBCs in diabetic patients.
