Integrins in human hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and therapy / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

Integrins are a family of transmembrane receptors that connect the extracellular matrix and actin skeleton, which mediate cell adhesion, migration, signal transduction, and gene transcription. As a bi-directional signaling molecule, integrins can modulate many aspects of tumorigenesis, including tumor growth, invasion, angiogenesis, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance. Therefore, integrins have a great potential as antitumor therapeutic targets. In this review, we summarize the recent reports of integrins in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), focusing on the abnormal expression, activation, and signaling of integrins in cancer cells as well as their roles in other cells in the tumor microenvironment. We also discuss the regulation and functions of integrins in hepatitis B virus-related HCC. Finally, we update the clinical and preclinical studies of integrin-related drugs in the treatment of HCC.

Computational analysis suggests putative intermediate animal hosts of the SARS-CoV-2

The recent emerged SARS-CoV-2 may first transmit to intermediate animal host from bats before the spread to humans. The receptor recognition of ACE2 protein by SARS-CoVs or bat-originated coronaviruses is one of the most important determinant factors for the cross-species transmission and human-to-human transmission. To explore the hypothesis of possible intermediate animal host, we employed molecular dynamics simulation and free energy calculation to examine the binding of bat coronavirus with ACE2 proteins of 47 representing animal species collected from public databases. Our results suggest that intermediate animal host may exist for the zoonotic transmission of SARS-CoV-2. Furthermore, we found that tree shrew and ferret may be two putative intermediate hosts for the zoonotic spread of SARS-CoV-2. Collectively, the continuous surveillance of pneumonia in human and suspicious animal hosts are crucial to control the zoonotic transmission events caused by SARS-CoV-2.

Comparison of Yang-Monti ileal ureter-bladder anastomosis versus Yang-Monti ileal ureter-ureteral anastomosis for the treatment of ureteral stenosis: a randomized controlled trial in a miniature pig model.

BACKGROUND: The aim of the present study was to establish an animal model of Yang-Monti ileal ureter-bladder anastomosis and Yang-Monti ileal ureter-ureteral anastomosis and compare the advantages and disadvantages of the two surgical methods. METHODS: Fourteen 12-month-old male Chinese miniature pigs weighing 21 ± 1.38 kg were randomly divided into two groups. Group A (n = 7) underwent end-to-end anastomosis of the left Yang-Monti ileal ureter, left ileal ureter and left lower ureter; group B (n = 7) underwent anastomosis of the left Yang-Monti ileal ureter, left ileal ureter and bladder. In both groups, the contralateral kidney was removed at 1 week postoperatively. The incision length and operation time of the two groups were compared. Changes in serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were observed preoperatively, and at 2, 6 and 12 weeks postoperatively. Venous pyelography and cystography were performed at 12 weeks postoperatively to determine the ureteral patency and vesicoureteral reflux. At 12 months postoperatively, urinary culture was performed, and the diameter and histological changes of the intestinal ureter were assessed. RESULTS: Surgery was successfully completed in all 14 pigs. In group A, one pig died due to an anesthetic accident, and one pig died from a lung infection on postoperative day 4. In group B, one pig died from adhesive intestinal obstruction on postoperative day 7. The overall survival rate was 78.6%, and the 11 surviving pigs had no urinary or intestinal fistulae. Compared with group B, group A had a significantly longer surgical incision (30.86 ± 2.41 cm versus 26.71 ± 3.64 cm; p = 0.01) and shorter operation time (181.29 ± 15.10 min versus 157.71 ± 20.49 min; p = 0.02). The serum creatinine and urea nitrogen concentrations did not significantly differ between groups. All pigs had normal renal function pre- and postoperatively. There was no stenosis or obstruction on venous pyelography. The narrowest diameter of the ureter was significantly smaller in group B (5.90 ± 0.30 mm) than in group A (7.26 ± 1.06 mm; p = 0.01), but no contrast agent returned to the upper urinary tract in either group. Escherichia coli was detected on urine culture. In group A, one pig had obstruction of the ureteral ureter, while another had stenosis of the lower ureteral anastomosis. In group B, one pig had pelvic and intestinal ureteral dilatation; however, all anastomoses were patent. The ileal ureteral diameter was significantly larger in group A (9.40 ± 2.35 mm) than group B (6.62 ± 0.37 mm; p = 0.02). Two pigs in group A had separation of the transitional epithelium and columnar epithelial mucosa, with granulation tissue hyperplasia. The pigs with stenosis and obstruction had smooth fibrous tissue and smooth muscle of the anastomosis. In both groups, the two types of epithelial tissue were close together, and the intestinal villi were mildly atrophied and shortened. CONCLUSIONS: An animal model of Yang-Monti ileal ureter-bladder anastomosis was successfully established. Compared with Yang-Monti ileal ureter-ureteral anastomosis, Yang-Monti ileal ureter-bladder anastomosis is simpler, more reliable, and results in fewer complications.

Analysis of the etiology and prognosis of severe complications after percutaneous nephrolithotomy / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objective To analyze the etiology and prognosis of severe complications of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).Methods The clinical data of patients with severe complications after PCNL from December 2004 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Age of the patients ranged from 25 to 69 years old,with an average of 41 years.There were 64 cases with 29 male and 35 female.Fifty-five cases were diagnosed as renal calculi,including 21 cases of left renal calculi,19 cases of right renal calculi;15 cases of bilateral renal calculi;2 cases of the patients were bilateral upper ureteral calculi;7 patients were renal calculi upper ureteral calculi on the other side.In all cases,the maximum diameter of calculus was 1.8-4.3 cm (mean 2.6 cm) and hydronephrosis depth was 0-5.9 cm (mean 2.3 cm);15 cases were previously treated with nephrolithotomy.The modified Clavien grading system was used to evaluate surgical complications,and ≥grade Ⅲ complications were considered as serious complications.Results Among the 64 cases,28 cases were classified as Clavien Ⅲ class.There were 2 cases of bleeding in operation due to renal parenchyma laceration or multiple access,patients were treated with later open surgery.Postoperative bleeding were revealed in 22 cases,16 of which were hemorrhage from the nephrostomy tubes,4 of which complained of discontinuity gross hematuria and 2 postoperative bleeding were encountered during the nephrostomy tube remove.All the cases received renal arteriography and were diagnosed with pseudoaneurysm,bleeding were stopped after embolization.3 cases of pleural injury were treated with closed thoracic drainage,1 colon injury was treated with open colostomy.There were 32 cases of urinary sepsis considered as Clavien Ⅳ complications,and these patients were transferred to the Intensive Care Unit.Clavien Ⅴ class 4 cases:1 died of hemorrhagic shock due to pleural injury,2 cases died of urinary sepsis and multiple organ failure and another case died of pulmonary embolism.Conclusions PCNL has high risk of serious complications,which should be always strictly follow the principles.Adequate preoperative preparation,appropriate surgery access,carefully and gently operate,appropriate antibiotic use and postoperative management are the key measures to reduce the incidence of complications.

The study of selective segmental renal artery clamping aggravating pathological injury of the solitary-kidney in a porcine model / 中华泌尿外科杂志

Objective To evaluate the effect of selective segmental renal artery clamping ( SSRAC) on the solitary-kidney, providing a foundamental basis for the using of SSRAC in partial nephrectomy. Methods A total of 18 pigs were randomized equally into 2 groups according to the method of renal artery clamping such as main renal artery clamping ( MRAC) group or SSRAC group.Each case underwent right radical nephrectomy and either MRAC or SSRAC for 60 minutes on the left kidney.Serum creatinine ( SCr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured before surgery and at 6 time points thereafter (the 1st, 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th, 90th day).Magnetic resonance imaging was performed before surgery and at 4 time points thereafter (the 1st, 7th, 28th, 90th day) and T2 relaxation time and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) were determined.Inflammatory cell infiltration and interstitial fibrosis were detected using renal histology on the 1st and 90th day after operation.Results SCr and BUN of the two groups increased to peak value on the 1st day, and then decreased gradually to normal on the 90th day after the operation.On the 1st day, SCr [(266.43 ±31.12)umol/l] and BUN [(13.63 ±2.54)mmol/l)] of SSRAC group were significantly lower than that of MRAC [(386.37 ±40.40)umol/l,(26.83 ±5.96)mmol/l] (P0.05) on the 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th, 90th day.In the MRAC group, the T2 relaxation time of upper, middle and lower pole of the left kidney increased and the ADC decreased on the 1st day after operation.It arrived to the peak value on the 7th day, and decreased or increased respectively from then on to normal level on the 90th day.In the SSRAC group, there were no significant changes of T2 relaxation time and ADC in the upper and middle pole of left kidney (P>0.05), but it was similar to that in the MRAC group for lower pole.On the 1st, 7th, 28th day after operation, the T2 relaxation time of upper and middle pole of the left kidney in the MRAC group [(45.50 ±1.87),(51.82 ±2.27), and(40.37 ±1.93)ms ) ] were significantly higher than those in the SSRAC group [(36.67 ± 1.33),(35.15 ±1.27), and(37.48 ±1.37)ms](P0.05).On the 1st, 7th, 28th day after operation, the ADC of upper and middle pole of the left kidney in the MRAC group [(2.29 ±0.08) ×10 -3 mm2/s, (2.10 ±0.08) ×10 -3 mm2/s, (2.41 ±0.09) ×10 -3 mm2/s] were significantly lower than that of the SSRAC group [(2.69 ± 0.08) ×10 -3 mm2/s, ( 2.63 ±0.06 ) ×10 -3 mm2/s, ( 2.68 ±0.05 ) ×10 -3 mm2/s ] ( P <0.05 ) . However, on the 1st,7th, 28th, 90th day after operation, the ADC of lower pole of the left kidney in the SSRAC group [(1.93 ±0.08) ×10 -3mm2/s,(1.91 ±0.09) ×10-3mm2/s,(2.33 ±0.07) ×10 -3mm2/s, and (2.43 ±0.07) ×10 -3 mm2/s] were significantly lower than those of the MRAC group [ (2.37 ±0.05) ×10 -3 mm2/s, (2.06 ±0.07) ×10 -3 mm2/s, (2.46 ±0.09) ×10 -3 mm2/s, (2.61 ±0.08) ×10 -3 mm2/s](P<0.05).The whole left kidney in MRAC group experienced extensive tubular hydropic degeneration and limited inflammatory cell infiltration on the 1st day after operation.Moreover, renal tubular hydropic degeneration alleviated and no glomerular changes, fibrous tissue hyperplasia or inflammatory cell infiltration was found on the 90th day after operation.In SSRAC group, no changes were found in upper and middle pole of left kidney at the two time points, while the pathological injury of the lower pole of left kidney was more severe.Conclusions SSRAC has obvious protective effect on renal function in the early stage. However, compared with MRAC, the renal tissue injury in the ischemic area was more serious.Therefore, to protect renal function in partial nephrectomy, the ischemic renal area should be reduced as much as possible, even to zero-ischemic, when adopting SSRAC.

Objective To investigate the clinical outcomes derived from Ningmitai combined with tamsulosin to prevent double-J stent syndrome after laser lithotripsy with ureteroscope. Methods 117 patients underwent laser lithotripsy with ureteroscope and then placed a double-J stent for draining were collected from January 2010 to January 2013. Patients with double-J stent placement were divided into four groups determined by dosage regimen. Tamsulosin group (30 cases) was treated with tamsulosin (0.4 mg once daily) lonely, Ningmitai group (29 cases) was treated with Ningmitai (1.52 g, trice time a day) lonely, tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group (30 cases) was treated with tamsulosin and Ningmitai at the same time, operation control group (28 cases) was neither tamsulosin nor Ningmitai. The catheter was removed on the 3rd day post-lithotripsy and then remained double-J stent for 1 month. The scores of urinary tract, pain and the incidence of gross hematuria were assessed. Results The significant differences in the improvement of symptom score (χ2=22.038, P=0.000), pain score (χ2=9.876, P=0.020) and hematuria (χ2=8.000, P=0.046) were found among tamsulosin group, Ningmitai group, and tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group. The number of patients with symptomless, slight symptom in tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group were higher than those of tamsulosin group, Ningmitai group, operation control group (symptomeless:14 vs. 6, 3 and 2 cases;slight symptom:13 vs. 9, 5, 4 cases). The number of patients with>Ⅱpain score (7 vs. 9, 14, 17 cases) and incidence of hematuriag [26.6%(8/30) vs. 56.7%(17/30), 58.6% (17/29), 53.6% (15/28)] were lower in tamsulosin combined Ningmitai group than those of tamsulosin group, Ningmitai group, operation control group. The drug combination of Ningmitai with tamsulosin had the synergism to relived symptom and pain, and showed the more obviousthan lonely use. Conclusion The drug combination of Ningmitai with tamsulosin can be used in clinic for prophylactic purpose to prevent double-J syndrome.

Construction of a promoter reporter array for antibiotic screening / 生物工程学报

We designed and constructed an antibiotic screening system by using antibiotic responsive genes as reporters. Plasmid pCS26 carrying a promoterless luminescence reporter, luxCDABE, was used as the vector and the promoter regions of antibiotic responsive genes/operons from Escherichia coli were cloned upstream of the lux reporter to form the first part of the screening reporter array. Random promoter library of Salmonella enterica and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were screened for antibiotic responsive clones which consist of the second part of the screening array. The selected final reporter array responded to different antibiotics in distinct patterns and enabled in vivo high-throughput screening for antibiotics. Unknown antibiotics could, in general, be classified by analyzing the response patterns. This screening system is both sensitive and efficient and should prove to be a useful tool for screening new antibiotic compounds.

Model establishment of adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum and its protection of transplanted liver / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:The selective immunosuppression on transplanted organ was realized by local drug delivery system,which is one of efficient ways to avoid many kinds of side reactions induced by systemic drug delivery.By using the characteristics that adrenal gland can secret glucocorticoid,the adrenal gland or adrenal implant as the way of local drug delivery of glucocorticoid for transplanted organ is hopeful to avoid the complications induced by systemic and amount of use of glucocoticoid.OBJECTIVE:To establish a model of adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum,and to observe the protection of the adrenal gland implant on transplanted liver.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:This randomized controlled animal experiment was performed in the Experimental Animal Center of Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital from May 2007 to October 2008.MATERIALS:Fifty male Sprague Dawley rats were assigned as donors,and fifty male inbred strain Wistar rats were assigned as recipients.METHODS:After feeding one week,the recipient rats were randomly divided into two groups with 25 rats in each group.In liver transplantation after adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum group,allogenic liver transplantation was performed after successful model establishment of adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum.In simple liver transplantation group,only allogenic liver transplantation was performed.No immunosuppressant was used after transplantation in both of the two groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The survival time of rats was observed.The morphology of the transplanted livers and the adrenal implants was observed at different time points.The activities of serum aspartate aminotransferase(AST),as well as the concentration of serum corticosteroid and total bilirubin were detected at different time points.RESULTS:The recipient adrenal implants recovered their endocrinal function at 7 weeks after adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum.After liver transplantation,histological examination showed that the adrenal implants survived well.The median survival time of rats in the liver transplantation after adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum group was more than 30 days,which is obviously longer than that(12 days) in the simple liver transplantation group.There was no significant difference in concentration of serum corticosteroid between the two groups.At 7 days after transplantation,activities of serum AST and concentration of total bilirubin of rats in the simple liver transplantation group were significantly higher than those in the liver transplantation after adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum group(P ≤ 0.05).In the liver transplantation after adrenal gland self-implantation in greater omentum group,pathological changes of transplanted livers showed as grade 0 according to Williams standard.In the simple liver transplantation group,a mild rejection appeared at 3 days after transplantation,and the pathological changes turned to severe and reached grade 3 according to Williams standard at 7 days.CONCLUSION:Adrenal implant which survives and recovers its endocrinal function after self-implantation in greater omentum has protection on the transplanted liver in early stage.
