Medical dispute has become a hot issue in current China. As to the new rules carried out and the importance of medical data in edical disputes litigation,it is necessary that the medical data should reflect the reality of medical behavior comprehensive,authentic and without delay during the writing in order to avoid the occurrence of medical treatment disputes.
2.Law of brain death and liver trasplantation in China
Chinese Medical Ethics 1994;0(06):-
China is one of the minority countries which have not passed through the law ot brain death in the world. After efforts of decades, the liver transplantation in China have got great achievements, however, owing to unimplementation of the law of brain death, the main source of grafts was the donor of cardiac death which resulted in the bad quality of grafts and poor curative effect after liver transplantation compared with the international advanced level. The implementation of the law of brain death will promote the improvement of liver transplantation level in China greatly.

Objective Proliferation and apoptosis play a major role in the development of tumor cells,and the intranuclear transcriptional factor c-fos is significantly up-regulated in the primary hepatocellular carcinoma and involved in early carcinogenesis.The purpose of the present study is to investigate the apoptotic effect of c-fos antisense oligodeoxynucleotide(ASO) on human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and the participation of Caspase3 in this process.Methods Cell culture,Hoechst 33258 staining,real-time PCR and Western blotting were used in present study.Cultured HepG2 cells were divided into 3 groups: 1) control group: cultured with 10?l saline;2) sense oligodeoxynucleotide(SO,used as a negative control) treated group: co-cultured with 10?l SO(5?g/?l);3) ASO treated group: co-cultured with ASO 10?l(5?g/?l).The subsequent experiments were performed 1h after cultivation for each group.Hoechst 33258 staining was performed to detect the apoptosis by observing the staining of nuclear chromatin.Real-time PCR and Western blotting were used respectively to detect the expression of Caspase 3 at mRNA and protein levels after different treatments.Results Hoechst 33258 staining revealed that the nuclei of HepG2 cells showed diffuse and adqulis fluorescence in control and SO-treated groups,while dense and dark fluorescence was observed in ASO-treated group,which indicated that c-fos ASO had significantly induced apoptosis of HepG2 cells.The expression of Caspase 3 in ASO group was enhanced both at mRNA and protein levels compared to that in control groups.Conclusions C-fos ASO significantly induces apoptosis in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells,as shown by Hoechst 33258 staining and higher expression of Caspase 3 mRNA and protein.Moreover,Caspase 3 activation is involved and probably plays an important role in c-fos ASO-induced apoptosis of HepG2 cells.

Cell therapy has a very promising potential for end-stage liver diseases (ESLD).Fetal liver stem/progenitor cells (FLSPCs) have advantages of safety,high survival and proliferation rates,and a small volume,all which make them ideal for liver disease stem cell therapy.During the early phase of our study,we applied a three-step separation method to enrich FLSPCs and obtained a separation efficiency similar to that of the flow-cell sorting method.Additionally,using a fulminant hepatic failure model in rats,we have demonstrated that FLSPCs can contribute to morphological and functional recovery of the liver.This manuscript will discuss how FLSPCs can be induced to accurately differentiate into hepatocytes and cholangiocytes and how FLSPCs maintain self-renewal.The Notch signaling plays a critical role in regulating the differentiation and self-renewal of many types of stem cells.Our previous findings have shown that the Notch signaling plays an important role in FLSPCs differentiation into hepatocytes.Therefore,the Notch signaling might be involved in the differentiation and self-renewal of FLSPCs.We conducted a study on the regulatory effects and relative molecular mechanisms of the Notch signaling on FLSPCs and found the corresponding interfering target,which might become an index for the clinical application of FLSPCs.

Objective To investigate the relationship between canceration and primary operation mode for congenital choledochal cysts(CCC). Methods The clinical data of 21 patients with CCC treated in the last 30 years were analysed retrospectively. Results In this series, the incidence of carcinoma was 14.8%; the canceration rate after internal drainage operation was significantly higher than that after resection of the cyst(P<0.001); the age of canceration after internal drainage was younger than that of resection of the cyst(P<0.01) and patients without operation(P<0.01); the interval time of canceration after internal drainage operation was significantly less than that of resection of the cyst(P<0.01); the age of carcinoma would be 15.4 years younger in internal drainage operation patients than that in patients without operation. Conclusions Internal drainage, which could accelerate the occurrence of canceration of CCC, should be abandoned; resection of the cyst is recommended as the therapy of the first choice.
