Abstract:
Objective To explore the expression changes and possible molecular mechanisms of Neuritin and HSP60 during the repair of liver injury,and to provide an experimental basis for the study of the repair of liver injury. Methods Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into control group without any treatment(n=6)and experimental group(n=42)underwent 70% hepatectomy to induce acute liver injury,and 6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,3 d,7 d and 14 d after the operation,the left lobe resection of the residual liver was per-formed. Immunoblotting technique (Western blot) was used to detect the expression difference of Neuritin and HSP60 in liver tissue of the corresponding time points. Hematoxylin eosin staining(hematoxylin-eosin staining, HE)was used to observe the expression changes at each time point in liver pathology,and tail vein blood to detect ATL and AST changes. Results (1)Compared with those in the control group,the serum ALT and AST levels in the experimental group were increased at 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after the operation,and reached the peak at 48 h postoperatively but those began to decrease 3 d postoperatively and was almost normal 7 d postoperatively. The difference was statistically significant(P < 0.05). Pathological findings:compared with that in the control group, the hepatic lobule structure in the experimental group was disorderly. The obvious balloon like change reached the peak 48 h postoperatively.(2)In the whole process of repair of liver injury,the expression of Neuritin and HSP60 showed differences in the opposite. There was a significantly negative correlation between Neuritin expression and the repair or the aggravation of the injury(P<0.001)and the lowest expression was observed 48 h postoperatively. There was a significantly positive correlation between HSP60 expression and the repair or the aggravation of the injury(P < 0.001)and the highest expression was observed 48 h postoperatively. Conclusions (1)With simple 70% left hepatic lobectomy,the repair of liver injury model of SD rats is successfully established and the heaviest injury is observed 48h postoperatively. With a high success rate(100%,42/42),simple and practical,the method provides a reliable and convenient animal model for the study of liver regeneration,liver injury and liver transplan-tation.(2)The expression of Neuritin decreases gradually after liver injury and reaches the lowest 48 h postopera-tively,while the expression of HSP60 increases gradually and reaches the highest 48 h postoperatively.(3)The change of expression of Neuritin and HSP60 is closely related to the process of liver injury repair(P < 0.001), showing a certain change rule. They may have some biological effects through interactions,and participate in and promote the regeneration and repair of liver injury.
