Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of phosphatase and tensin homology deleted on ehromosome ten ( PTEN ) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha ( HIF-1α) in sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) of different pathological grades.Methods Fifty-five paraffin samples from patients with SNIP and a control group of 10 paraffin samples of patients with nomal nasal cavity mucosa (NM) who underwent inferior turbinectomy were consisted in this study.Among the 55 cases of SNIP, 30 cases were without dysplasia subtypes , 11 cases were with dysplasia subtypes , and 14 cases with canceration to squamous cell carcinoma ( SCC ) subtypes.PTEN and HIF-1αexpression in SNIP was detected by immunohistochemistry.The differences between NM and SNIP , and among the three subtypes were analyzed , and the relationship between PTEN , HIF-1αexpression and SNIP recurrence and the correlation between PTEN expression and HIF-1αexpression were also analyzed.SPSS 16.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results The positive expression rate of PTEN in NM and SNIP was 100% and 65.5%, the difference was significant ( U =147, P =0.014), while HIF-1αwas 0 and 30.9%, the difference was significant (U=190, P=0.045).The positive expression rate of PTEN in SNIP without dysplasia, SNIP with dysplasia and NSCC was 83.3%, 63.6%, 28.6%, respectively, the difference was significant(H =12.644, P =0.002); while HIF-1αwas 16.7%, 45.5%, 50.0%, respectively, the difference was significant(H=8.292, P=0.016).A total of 22 SNIP patients recurred.PTEN had lower expression in recurrent SNIP ( 45.5%) than that in non-recurrent SNIP ( 82.8%) , and the difference was significant(χ2 =7.834, P =0.005).However, the expression of HIF-1αhad no significant difference between recurrent SNIP and the SNIP which had no recurrence (χ2 =0.901, P=0.343).The expression of PTEN protein was negatively correlated with that of HIF-1αprotein (r=-0.503, P=0.001).Conclusions PTEN expression decreased graduately with the severity of malignancy of SNIP , but HIF-1αincreased.The expression of HIF-1αwas induced by hypoxia , which may negatively effect the expression of PTEN , and both HIF-1αand PTEN may play critical roles in the progress of SNIP.PTEN is one of the factors responsible for the postoperative recurrence of SNIP.

Objective:To compare the perioperative outcomes of laparoscopic duodenal-preserving pancreatic head resection(LDPPHR) with laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD) in the treatment of borderline and benign diseases of the pancreatic head.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. Perioperative data from 87 patients with non-malignant pancreatic head diseases who underwent LDPPHR or LPD were retrospectively collected in the Department of Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery,Tongji Hospital,Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology from January 2020 to December 2022. There were 49 male and 38 female patients with an age ( M(IQR)) of 57.0(16.5) years (range: 20 to 75 years). Forty patients underwent LDPPHR and 47 patients underwent LPD. Quantitative data following a normal distribution were compared using Student′s t-test, while quantitative data not following a normal distribution were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparisons of categorical or ordinal variables were made using χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the risk factors associated with the rate of complications. Results:There were no statistically significant differences between the LDPPHR group and the LPD group in terms of reoperation rate,total hospital stay duration,postoperative hospital stay duration,90-day mortality rate,30-day and 90-day readmission rates,and 2-year tumor recurrence rate (all P>0.05). The complication rate was higher in the LDPPHR group compared to the LPD group (80.0%(32/40) vs. 51.1%(24/47), χ2=7.89, P=0.005),but there was no difference in the rate of Clavien-Dindo classification of surgical complications ≥Ⅲ between the two groups (10.0%(4/40) vs. 12.8%(6/47), χ2<0.01, P=0.947). Additionally,the rate of delayed gastric emptying (DGE) was higher in the LDPPHR group compared to the LPD group ( χ2=10.79, P=0.001),but there was no statistically significant difference in the rate of B,C grade DGE between the two groups ( χ2=0.48, P=0.487). There were no statistically significant differences in the rates of postoperative pancreatic fistula,bile leakage,post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage,intra-abdominal infection,and pulmonary infection between the two groups (all P>0.05). The results of the univariate logistic regression analysis showed that LDPPHR (compared to LPD, OR=3.83, 95% CI: 1.46 to 10.04, Z=2.73, P=0.006) and preoperative biliary stent placement (compared to non-use of biliary stent, OR=5.30, 95% CI: 1.13 to 25.00, Z=2.11, P=0.035) were risk factors for the complication rate,but neither was an independent risk factor for complication rate (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The preliminary results suggest that LDPPHR can achieve perioperative safety and effectiveness comparable to LPD.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the expression and clinical significance of phosphatase and tensin homology deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) in sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) of different pathological grades.

METHODSFifty-five paraffin samples from patients with SNIP and a control group of 10 paraffin samples of patients with normal nasal cavity mucosa (NM) who underwent inferior turbinectomy were consisted in this study. Among the 55 cases of SNIP, 30 cases were without dysplasia subtypes, 11 cases were with dysplasia subtypes, and 14 cases with canceration to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) subtypes. PTEN and HIF-1α expression in SNIP was detected by immunohistochemistry. The differences between NM and SNIP, and among the three subtypes were analyzed, and the relationship between PTEN, HIF-1α expression and SNIP recurrence and the correlation between PTEN expression and HIF-1α expression were also analyzed. SPSS 16.0 software was used to analyze the data.

RESULTSThe positive expression rate of PTEN in NM and SNIP was 100% and 65.5%, the difference was significant (U = 147, P = 0.014), while HIF-1α was 0 and 30.9%, the difference was significant (U = 190, P = 0.045). The positive expression rate of PTEN in SNIP without dysplasia, SNIP with dysplasia and NSCC was 83.3%, 63.6%, 28.6%, respectively, the difference was significant (H = 12.644, P = 0.002); while HIF-1α was 16.7%, 45.5%, 50.0%, respectively, the difference was significant (H = 8.292, P = 0.016). A total of 22 SNIP patients recurred. PTEN had lower expression in recurrent SNIP (45.5%) than that in non-recurrent SNIP (82.8%), and the difference was significant(χ² = 7.834, P = 0.005). However, the expression of HIF-1α had no significant difference between recurrent SNIP and the SNIP which had no recurrence (χ² = 0.901, P = 0.343). The expression of PTEN protein was negatively correlated with that of HIF-1α protein (r = -0.503, P = 0.001).

CONCLUSIONSPTEN expression decreased graduately with the severity of malignancy of SNIP, but HIF-1α increased. The expression of HIF-1α was induced by hypoxia, which may negatively effect the expression of PTEN, and both HIF-1α and PTEN may play critical roles in the progress of SNIP. PTEN is one of the factors responsible for the postoperative recurrence of SNIP.

Tripterygium wilfordii multiglycoside (GTW) is a commonly used compound for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and immune diseases in clinical practice. However, it can induce liver injury and the mechanism of hepatotoxicity is still not clear. This study was designed to investigate GTW-induced hepatotoxicity in zebrafish larvae and explore the mechanism involved. The 72 hpf (hours post fertilization) zebrafish larvae were administered with different concentrations of GTW for three days and their mortality, malformation rate, morphological changes in the liver, transaminase levels, and histopathological changes in the liver of zebrafish larvae were detected. The reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to examine the levels of microRNA-122 (miR-122) and genes related to inflammation, apoptosis, cell proliferation and liver function. The results showed that GTW increased the mortality of zebrafish larvae, while significant malformations and liver damage occurred. The main manifestations were elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), significant liver atrophy, vacuoles in liver tissue, sparse cytoplasm, and unclear hepatocyte contours. RT-PCR results showed that the expression of miR-122 significantly decreased by GTW; the mRNA levels of inflammation-related genes il1β, il6, tnfα, il10, cox2 and ptges significantly increased; the mRNA level of tgfβ significantly decreased; the mRNA levels of apoptosis-related genes, caspase-8 and caspase-9, significantly increased; the mRNA level of bcl2 significantly decreased; the mRNA levels of cell proliferation-related genes, top2α and uhrf1, significantly reduced; the mRNA levels of liver function-related genes, alr and cyp3c1, significantly increased; and the mRNA level of cyp3a65 significantly decreased. In zebrafish, GTW can cause increased inflammation, enhanced apoptosis, decreased cell proliferation, and abnormal expression of liver function-related genes, leading to abnormal liver structure and function and resulting in hepatotoxicity.
