1.Homotypic and Heterotypic Interactions of SatBaMV-encoded P20 Protein
Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2006;33(12):1165-1176
Satellite RNA ofBaMV (satBaMV), a single-stranded positive-sense RNA of 836 nucleotide [excluding 3′ poly(A) tail]containing a single open reading frame which encodes a nonstructural protein of 20 ku (P20), depends on BaMV for its replication and encapsidation. P20 is a nucleic-acid-binding protein, which facilitates the long distance movement of satBaMV in plants.Protein-protein interactions were analyzed by a bacterial two-hybrid system and pull-down assays to investigate whether P20 could self-associate and/or interact with the helper virus proteins. Self-interaction of P20 was the strongest among the viral protein-protein interactions detected in vivo and in vitro. Significant interactions of P20 with methyltransferase (MET) and capsid protein (CP) of BaMV were evidenced. Interactions among triple gene block protein 1, 2 and 3 (TGBp1, TGBp2 and TGBp3) of BaMV were also significant. BaMV CP also exhibited a strong self-interaction and strong affinity to TGBp1, TGBp2 and TGBp3. By deletion analysis,the minimal region delineated for the self-interaction of P20 was the N-terminal 15 amino acids which include the RNA binding motif of P20. N-terminal deletion resulted in the loss of self-interaction of P20. Deletion analysis also confirmed the importance of β-sheet structure of P20 in the P20-P20 interaction. P20 showed significant interactions with two host (Nicotiana benthamiana) proteins,cytochrome-C reductase and β-tubulins. The homotypic and heterotypic interactions of BaMV proteins and P20 in vivo thus suggest that the protein-protein interactions may directly exert an effect on the BaMV and satBaMV RNA movement as a protein complex in the infected host plants.

Objective To investigate the indications, techniques and results of laparoscopic hepatectomy. Methods The clinical data and follow-up results of 463 patients who received laparoscopic hepatectomy at our institute were retrospectively analyzed. Results From March 1, 2007 to March 31, 2011, 463 cases of laparoscopic hepatectomy were successfully carried out. Of the 463 patients,165 were with primary liver cancer, 29 with metastatic liver cancer, 143 with hepatic hemangioma, 81with hepatolithiasis and 45 with other benign liver diseases (including hepatic angiomyolipoma, hepatocellular adenoma, focal nodular hyperplasia and chronic liver abscess). The surgical approaches included laparoscopic left lateral lobectomy (93 cases), left hepatectomy (71 cases), extended left hepatectomy (4 cases), right hepatectomy (29 cases), right posterior lobectomy (24 cases), hepatectomy of segment Ⅵ (56 cases), extended right hepatectomy (2 cases), central hepatectomy (8 cases) and hepatectomy of segments Ⅶ/Ⅷ, Ⅳa, caudate lobe and the junction of segment Ⅵ and Ⅶ (41 case).Nonanntomic and wedge resection were performed on 121 patients, and combined resection on 14 patients. The mean operation time, blood loss, length of hospital stay and incidence of postoperative complications were (244.71 ± 105. 07) minutes, (460. 26±425.81) ml, (15.51 ±4.36) days and 9.29%, respectively. And no operative death occurred. In the 194 cases with malignant liver lesions,185 cases were followed up for 2 to 50 months. The 1 year and 3 year overall and disease free survival rate were 90. 8% and 87.9% , 84.2% and 73. 7% respectively. Conclusions As a means of minimally invasive surgical approach, laparoscopic hepatectomy can be selectively adopted for the treatment of all kinds of liver diseases which located at different parts of the liver, with the advantages of smaller trauma, quick recovery and cosmetic benefits. The short-term results of laparoscopic hepatectomy is superior to and its long-term results is equal to that of open surgery. Benign liver diseases, small hepatocellular carcinoma and metastatic liver cancer are the good indications for laparoscopic hepatectomy.

Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic left hepatectomy in patients with primary hepatic carcinoma. Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted in clinical data of left hepatectomy from 2007 to 2014,including 47 cases of laparoscopic hepatectomy and 46 cases of open hepatectomy. The intraoperative and postoperative data of the two surgical methods were compared to evalu-ate whether laparoscopic left hepatectomy is safe and feasible. Results The tumor size were bigger in the open hepatectomy [(56. 57 ± 24. 56) mm vs. (64. 11 ± 33. 39) mm,P=0. 218]. The laparoscopic left hepatectomy resulted in shorter operation time [(217. 53 ± 60. 22) min vs.(306.80±119.91)min],andtherewasasignificantlydifference(P<0.05).Theintraoperativebloodlosswerelesserinthelaparo-scopic left hepatectomy [(350. 21 ± 197. 98) mL vs. (556. 74 ± 471. 41) mL],and there was a significantly difference (P<0. 05). The lap-aroscopic left hepatectomy had a smaller intraoperative blood transfusion rate (12. 8% vs. 32. 6%,P<0. 05). The length of ICU stay,time for gastroentestinal function recovery, postopetative hospital stay were shorter than those of open left hepatectomy (P<0. 05). There was no significant difference of postoperative complication rate between them (14. 9% vs. 23. 9%,P=0. 271). The survival rates of 1-and 3-year after operation in patients with laparoscopic left hepatectomy were 91. 5% and 83. 0% respectively,while 84. 8% and 76. 1% in patients un-derwent open hepatectomy. The tumor-free survival rates 1-and 3-year after operation were 74. 5% and 59. 6% in patients with laparoscopic left hepatectomy respectively,while 65. 2% and 54. 3% in patients underwent open hepatectomy. Conclusion Laparoscopic left hepatectomy for primary hepatic carcinoma is safe and feasible. Laparoscopic left hepatectomy could be a consideration as the standard surgical methods for hepatic carcinoma.
