Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2017;44(8):390-394
Objective:To investigate the application of three-dimensional visualization technology in preoperative assessment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Methods:Thirty-eight patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent surgery from March 2014 to April 2016 were enrolled in the retrospective study. Among the cases, an observational group of 18 patients had preoperative three-dimensional visualization surgical planning, while a control group of 20 patients did not have the visualization surgical plan. The preoperative diagnostic results were analyzed with the actual intraoperative findings. Related surgicall indicators between the two groups were compared. Results:No significant difference in the accuracy rates of longitudinal and vertical infiltration of cholangiocarcinoma between was observed the observational group and control group. While the vascular and ductal branching pattern of all patients are consistent with intraoperative findings, the coincidence rate was higher in the observational group than that in the control group (100%vs. 70%, P<0.05). The estimated liver volumes were also exactly consistent with the actual liver volume (r=0.986, P<0.001). In comparison with the control group, the average intraoperative blood loss and operative time of the observational group were significantly lower. However, the potential curative resection between the two groups exhibited no significant difference. Conclusion:Three-dimensional visualization technology can accurately complete the preoperative evaluation of hilarcholangiocarcinoma.

7.Organotypic cerebral slice culture and the course of neuronal development in it
Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2003;0(04):-
Objective:To establish a method of organotypic cerebral culture.So as to pave the way for building some neurodegenerative disease models.Methods:Organotypic cerebral cultures were prepared from prefrontal brain of neonatal SD rats. After culturing 7 to 14 days, 3 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks, respectively, cerebral slices were fixed, dehydrated and sectioned in cryostat. The sections proceeded with Nissl staining and neurofilament high molecular weight (NFH) immunohistochemical staining.The difference was observed between controls and cultured slices using normal rats as controls. Results:Nissl staining showed that pyramidal neurons in cultured slices were increased in volume and lightened in staining. The delaminating construction was clear from 1 to 4 weeks after culturing. In cultured slices, immunohistochemical staining showed that NFH positive pyramidal cells appeared on layer Ⅴ on the tenth day and on both layers Ⅴ and Ⅲ after culturing 12 days. In the control group, NFH positive pyramidal cells appeared on layer Ⅴin 5-day-old rats, and appeared on both layers Ⅴand Ⅲ in over 3-week-old rats. In cultured cerebral slices, the number of pyramidal neurons on layer Ⅴ in M1 area was invariable from 12 days to 2 months. Conclusion:Orgaotypic cerebral culture can be used to study postnatal development for neocortex and build some in vitro models for neurodegenerative diseases.

Objective To study the relation between mitochondria damage and glutamate excitotoxicity in motor neuron disease.Methods Organotypic cerebral cultures were prepared from prefrontal brain of neonatal SD rats. Mitochondria was damaged by malonate sodium, and a NMDA receptor antagonist, MK-801 of 0.025,0.050,0.075,0.100 mmol/L, was respectively added into the cerebral cultures simultaneously in the protective experiment. The morphology of motor neurons was shown by Nissl and anti-high molecular weight filament (anti-NFH) immunohistochemical staining, and number of motor neurons was counted. The concentration of MDA in culture medium was measured by MDA assay. Results After exposed to malonate sodium (0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 mmol/L) for 1 week, the number of motor neurons in cerebral slices showed a dose-dependent decrease (49.78?4.30, 47.89?6.81, 25.67?6.18, 4.44?3.40, 1.22?1.99). The group treated with 3 mmol/L malonate sodium was selected as damage group. In protective experiment, the number of motor neurons in 0.050, 0.075 and 0.100 mmol/L MK-801-treated groups was significantly increased as compared with damage group, still less than that of controls. However, there was no difference of number of motor neurons among these three groups. The concentration of MDA in culture medium in normal control and 3, 5 mmol/L malonate sodium was (13.47?0.49), (15.87?0.74), (20.52?0.74) mmol/L. When treating cerebral cultures with 0.050 mmol/L MK-801 and 5 mmol/L malonate sodium simultaneously, the MDA was decreased to 14.45?0.78, close to normal level. Conclusion Glutamate excitotoxicity plays a role in motor neuron diseases caused by mitochondria damage, there exists a close relationship between glutamate exicitotoxicity and mitochondria damage.

Objective To investigate the effect of necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) on the expression of liver monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) in septic rats and its mechanism. Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham group, model group, and Nec-1 group by randomized digital number method, with 16 rats in each group. The model of sepsis was reproduced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Rats in sham group received anesthesia, and flipping the cecum followed by closure of the abdomen without ligation of the cecum. Rats in Nec-1 group were given 1 mg/kg Nec-1 [25 mg Nec-1 solution dissolved in 2.5 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)] through caudal vein 30 minutes before operation, while the rats in model group were given 0.1 mL/kg of DMSO only. Blood from abdominal aorta and liver tissue in each group were collected at 0 hour and 8 hours after operation. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were determined with automatic biochemistry analyzer. The pathological changes in liver were observed under light microscope using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The MCP-1 mRNA expression in the liver was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results There was no significant differences in the levels of serum ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and expressions of liver MCP-1 mRNA at 0 hour among three groups, and the liver cellular structure was normal. At 8 hours, compared with sham group, the expressions of serum ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and liver MCP-1 mRNA were significantly increased in model group and Nec-1 group [ALT (U/L): 172.35±21.88, 129.67±18.20 vs. 60.04±11.74, AST (U/L): 511.03±34.92, 363.51±25.25 vs. 254.83±31.04, TNF-α(ng/L): 603.96±24.18, 483.87±26.60 vs. 265.74±15.14, IL-6 (ng/L): 975.62±65.37, 712.09±45.47 vs. 310.42±13.88, MCP-1 mRNA (2-ΔΔCt): 7.09±0.18, 5.51±0.45 vs. 0.99±0.06, all P < 0.05]. Levels of the above parameters in Nec-1 group at 8 hours were significantly decreased compared with those of model group (all P < 0.05). Under light microscopy, it was noted that the structure of hepatic lobules was destroyed, with exacerbation of immunocyte infiltration at 8 hours in model group. At 8 hours, it was found that Nec-1 alleviated the pathological damage in Nec-1 group. Conclusion Nec-1 can protect the liver of rats with sepsis, lower the expression of serum TNF-α and serum IL-6 and liver MCP-1 mRNA, and obviously reduce the damage of inflammation.
