Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of augmenter of 1iver regeneration(ALR)on hepatocytes transplanted intraperitoneally in acute hepatic failure(AHF)rats.Methods AHF SD rats were induced by D-gal.The rats were divided into 5 groups randomly:blank control group(only receiving normal saline),transplantation control group(transplanting 2 X 107 hepatocytes from SD rats),ciclosporin A group(CsA group,receiving hepatocytes and CsA 6 days after transplantation),ALRgroup(receiving hepatocytes plus ALR 6 days after transplantation),ALR control group(only receiving ALR 6 days after transplantation).All drugs and cells were intraperitoneally injected.There was a observation period of 14 days after transplantation.The survival rate of receptors and transplanted hepatocytes was observed.The expression levels of CD4,CD8 and CD68 in abdominal cells,the levels of IL-1β and TNF-a in serum and douche of peritoneal cavity were detected.Results The 2-week SuFvival rate in blank control group,transplantation control group,CsA group,ALR group and ALR control group was 0,46.7%,20%,66.7%and 14.3%respectively.Survival rate in AI.R group was higher than in blank control group(P=0.001).Serum levels of d1-2 TNF-a in ALR group was all lower than in blank and transplantation control groups(P＜(0.01).Serum levels of d1-2 IL-18 in ALR group were lower than in transplantation control group.Ascitic levels of d1-2 TNF-a and IL-1β in transplantation control group were higher than in other groups(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The serum levels of TNF-a and IL-1β in all survival groups were similar tO normal levels on the 14th day after transplantation.The positive expression rate of d1-2 CD68 in grafts of ALR group was(0.5±0.3)%.The positive expression rate of CD68 in grafts of ALR group was obviously lower than in transplantation control group and CsA groups(P＜0.01).The expression of d1-2 CD68,CD4 and CD8 in ALR group was respectively(1.3±1.2)%,(0.1±0.3)%and(0.2±0.1)%,all obviously lower than in transplantation control group(P＜0.01,P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Assembled conglobate hepatocyte noduses were observed in abdominal cavity in rats receiving hepatocytes transplantation during first to third day after transplantation.The number of survival grafts in ALR group was more than that in transplantation control group and CsA group,and infihrated inflammatory cells were less.On the 14th day posttransplantation.small amounts of normal hepatocytes in grafts were observed only in ALR group.Conclusion After HcT plus ALR intraperitoneally,the survival rate of AHF rats was increased.ALR improved survivorship of transplanted hepatocytes in short term.
