ObjectiveTo evaluate selectave blocking of hepatic artery tor hepatectomy in onder to reduce blood loss. MethodsPatients with liver cancer in right hepatic lobe were randomly divided into study group (n =25 ) and control group (n =31).Conventional posterior approach for liver tumor resection was applied.In study group,right hepatic artery was first freed and inflow was temporarily blocked before the right liver lobe was freed from its peripheral attachment.Then hepatectomy was performed under Pringle's manouver. Result in term of blood loss was compared with that in control group in which hepatectomy was performed under Pringle's. ResultsThere were no significant differences between two groups in age,sex,tumor size,liver cirrhosis,HBsAg,AFP and tumor emboli in portal vein.Blood loss in study group was significantty less (272 ± 113 ) ml than that in control group (547 ± 221) ml,the difference was statistically significant(t =-5.6,P < 0.01).The length of hospital stay was significantly shorter than that in control group ( t =- 2.12,P < 0.05 ). ConclusionsInitial hepatic artery blochade before liver freeing during the process of hepatectomy significantly reduced intraoperative in blood loss liver cancer patients.

Objective To observe the role of lycopene played in the liver ischemia reperfusion injury,and its effort on autophagy.Methods Eighty SPF male SD rats(Animal Laboratory of the Yang Zhou University) were divided into 4 groups by random number table.Sham-operated group:after anesthesia,just opened the abdominal cavity.Treatment group:after molding,lycopene (10 mg/kg) was dissolved in medicinal corn oil (2 ml/kg) and intraperitoneal injection was performed.The lycopene was injected 60 minutes before surgery.Control group:after molding,intraperitoneal injection of equal volume of normal saline was given.Inhibiting group:lycopene (10 mg/kg) + 3-ma (15 mg/kg) were injected into the abdominal cavity after injection.20 rats in each group.The determination of sample collection and observation of indicators at 1 h,6 h,12 h,24 h after ischemia reperfusion.The serum ALT and AST levels were checked.The mRNA expression of TNF-α and IL-6 was measured by real-time PCR and the expression of Beclin-1,was detected by western blotting.Hematoxylin and Eeosin staining was used to evaluate the pathological change of liver tissues.The measurement data were expressed as (Mean ± SD),comparisons between the two groups were analyzed by independent sample t test,and comparisons among groups were analyzed by One-way anova and Newman-keuls method.Results The serum ALT levels of Sham-operated group in 1 h,6 h,12 h,24 h were (39.81 ±13.54),(39.65 ±14.24),(39.61 ±13.68),(38.72± 12.85) U/L,the serum ALT levels of liver ischemia-reperfusion control group in 1 h,6 h,12 h,24 h were (128.43 ± 33.49),(637.26 ± 89.53),(289.76 ± 43.59),(124.26 ± 35.32) U/L.Compared with Shamoperated group,the serum ALT levels of liver ischemia-reperfusion control group were significantly increased (P < 0.05).The serum ALT levels of treatment group in 1 h,6 h,12 h,24 h were (73.26 ± 23.24),(419.27 ± 56.49),(196.23 ± 26.23),79.76 ± 20.43) U/L.Compared with liver ischemia-reperfusion control group,the serum ALT levels of treatment group were significantly declined (P < 0.05).The serum ALT levels of inhibiting group in 1 h,6 h,12 h,24 h were (142.59 ±42.86),(592.45 ±48.36),(268.23 ±42.36),(131.23 ± 24.36) U/L.Compared with treatment group,the serum ALT levels of treatment group were significantly increased (P < 0.05).Compared with liver ischemia-reperfusion control group,the serum AST levels and the expression of inflammatory factor TNF alpha and IL-6 of treatment group were significantly declined(P < 0.05).The results of light microscope indicated that treatment groups significantly reduce the liver cell damage compared with liver ischemia-reperfusion control group.The lycopene could promote the autophagy of mice which related to protein of Beclin-1.Drugs of 3-ma which inhibit autophagy,reduces the expression of Beclin-1.Conclusion Lycopene preconditioning can protect liver from ischemia reperfusion injury by promoting autophagy in liver cells.

OBJECTIVE:
To clarify the anti-depressive potential mechanisms of Kaixin Powder (KP), a drug that helps to prevent and treat depression and other mentaldiseases, from genome-wide transcriptome profiling.
METHODS:
Transcriptome and KEGG pathway analysis were conducted on the hippocampus of depressed rats, then the differentially expressed genes were validated and serum concentration of lipid parameters were identified by enzymatic assays. Furthermore, high-fat diets induced depression-like behaviors in Syrian golden hamsters were conducted to verify the predicted molecular mechanisms acquired from the transcriptome analysis.
RESULTS:
Transcriptome results revealed that the 24 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in chronic mild stress (CMS) rats could be reversed after two weeks of KP treatment. The mechanisms of KP in treating depression firstly involved the regulation of several pathology modules, including lipid metabolism, synapse function and inflammation. KP could regulate imbalances of lipid homeostasis in high-fat diet induced depressive symptoms. Furthermore, it was validated that cholesterol metabolism dysfunction can be ameliorated by KP, which was correlated with upregulation of the AdipoR1-BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) co-regulatory pathway.
CONCLUSION
Taken together, our results demonstrated that KP not only alleviates depression via traditional mental illness targets, but it may also simulates the cholesterol metabolism and adiponectin signaling with multi-target characteristics.
