Objective To observe the changes of body weight,fat mass and skeletal muscle mass of rats after 4 weeks of intermittent fasting,and explore relationship with autophagy in skeletal muscle,so as to provide theoretical basis for intermittent fasting.Method Twenty male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control group (Con) and an intermittent fasting group (IF),each of 10.The rats of IF group were forbidden to eat food every Wednesday and Friday,and the body weight of both groups was recorded weekly.After 4 weeks,Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorption (DEXA) was used to analyze the body fat mass,then the bilateral soleus was separated to record the wet weight and measure the cross-sectional area of the soleus fibers by testing laminin with immunofluorescence confocal laser scanning microscope.The form of autophagic vacuole of soleus was observed using a transmission electron microscopy.The expression of autophagy-related protein LC3,p62 and regulating protein AMPK,pAMPK and ULK1 were measured using Western blotting.Result After 4 weeks of intermittent fasting,the weight and fat mass of IF were significantly lower than those of Con (P＜0.01),but there were no significant differences between them in wet weight and cross-sectional area of soleus (P＞0.05).The expressions of AMPK,p-AMPK,ULK1 in IF were significantly higher than those in Con (P＜0.01).Compared with Con,the expression of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ of IF increased significantly,while the expression of p62 decreased significantly (P＜0.01).Conclusion Four weeks of intermittent fasting decreases the fat mass significantly,and control the weight efficiently.Intermittent fasting can maintain the skeletal muscle mass by promoting moderate autophagy through the AMPK-ULK1 pathway.It should be a potential lose weight method for further research.

Objective To investigate the effects of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate on liver regeneration and hepatic function following partial hepatectomy in thioacetamide induced cirrhotic rats.MethodsForty-five cirrhotic Wistar rats undergoing 2/3 hepatectomy were randomly assigned to control group ( Group A), Group B and Group C starting the day of hepatectomy, rats in Group B were injected 60mg per kg body-weight magnesium isoglycyrrhizina daily intraperitoneally until the day of sacrifice. Rats in Group A recevied same dose of sodium chloride. In Group C, magnesium isoglycyrrhizina was administered daily 3 days before hepatectomy until the rats were sacrificed. Liver function, serum HGF, serum PLA2,BrdU labelling index and percentage of intial liver weight on days 1, 2 and 7 post hepatectomy were assessed. ResultsRats in Group A had significantly lower BrdU labelling index and serum HGF level than Group C ( t = 2. 831, P ＜ 0.05; t = 3.427, P ＜ 0.05 ) and a markedly higher level of serum PLA2 than the other groups on day 1 posthepatectomy ( Group B t = 2. 794, P ＜ 0.05; Group C t = 2. 902, P ＜ 0.05 ).Rats in Group A had a lower BrdU labelling index and a more increased level of serum PLA2 than Group B and Group C on day 2 posthepatectomy ( BrdU labelling index: Group B t = 2. 736, P ＜ 0.05; Group C t =3.083, P＜0.05; PLA2: Group B t =2.794, P＜0.05; Group C t =2.902, P＜0.05), but had no significant difference in HGF level with the other two groups. The three groups were similar in ALT, AST,TP and intial liver weight on days 1,2 after operation. On the 7th day posthepatectomy, rats in Group A had a higher level of AST ( Group B t = 4. 508, P ＜ 0.05; Group C t = 2. 967, P ＜ 0.05 ) and a lower level of TP ( Group B t = 2. 838, P ＜ 0.05; Group C t = 2. 743, P ＜ 0.05 ), lower liver weight than the other two groups ( Group B t = 3.316, P ＜ 0.05; Group C t = 4. 093, P ＜ 0.05) but there was no difference between the three groups in BrdU labelling index, HGF and PLA2 level. Rats in Group C had significantly higher BrdU labelling index and serum HGF level than the rats in Group B on day 1 after hepatectomy( t = 2. 831, P ＜0.05; t = 2. 836, P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionsMagnesium isoglycyrrhizinate inhibits aminopherase release and enhancing liver regeneration in cirrhotic rats after partial hepatectomy.

Objective To investigate the expression of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) in liver cancer and its clinical significance. Methods The specimens of liver cancer tissues, adjacent tissues, cirrhotic tissues and chronic hepatitis tissues were collected from 50 patients who received radical resection at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from July 2007 to April 2008. The mRNA and protein expressions of DNMT1,DNMT3a and DNMT3b in liver cancer tissues, adjacent tissues, cirrhotic tissues and chronic hepatitis tissues were detected by real-time quantitative PCR and immunohistochemical staining. The mRNA expression of DNMTs in the liver cancer tissues was compared with those in the adjacent tissues, cirrhotic tissues and chronic hepatitis tissues by using t test and Mann-Whitney U test. The correlation between the protein expression of DNMTs in the liver cancer tissue and the clinicopathological features was analyzed by chi-square test or Fisher exact test, and the tumor-free survival time was analyzed by using Kaplan-Meier method and the difference in tumor-free survival rate between different patients was analyzed by Log-rank test. Results The mRNA expressions of DNMT1, DNMT3a and DNMT3b in the liver cancer tissue were 2.57, 2.29 and 4.86 times higher than those in the adjacent tissues (t = 3.94, 2. 72, 4. 06, P ＜ 0.05 ). The mRNA expressions of DNMT1, DNMT3a and DNMT3b were 2.38,2.14 and 4.66 times higher than those in the cirrhotic tissues, and 6.12, 4.58 and 12.99 times higher than those in the chronic hepatitis tissues. The mRNA expressions of DNMT1, DNMT3a and DNMT3b in the liver cancer tissue were significantly higher than those in the cirrhotic tissues and chronic hepatitis tissues ( U = 587.5,730. 0,562.5; 65.5, 64.5, 71.0, P ＜ 0.05). The protein expression of DNMT1 was correlated with the size, number,TNM stages and vascular invasion of tumors ( x2 = 4.08, 5.95, 4.08, P ＜ 0.05 ). The protein expression of DNMT3a was correlated with the size, number and TNM stages of tumors (x2 = 4.08, 5.95, 4.08, P ＜ 0.05 ).The mean tumor recurrence time of patients with low expressions of DNMT1 and DNMT3a were 9.4 and 8.7 months, which were significantly longer than 5.0 and 3.2 months of those with high expressions of DNMT1 and DNMT3a (x2 =3.89, 9.91, P＜0.05). Conclusions DNMTs play an important role in hepatocarcinogenesis.High expressions of DNMT1 and DNMT3a are correlated with the postoperative recurrence of liver cancer, which are valuable prognostic factors for liver cancer.

ObjectiveTo investigate portal hemodynamic features and its changes following devascularization in cirrhotics. MethodsHemodynamics of portal trunk (PT), right anterior branch (RAB) and splenic vein (SV), including maximum cross-sectional velocity(CS-Vmax), flow volume and congestion index(CI), were assessed in 69 cirrhotics and 46 normal volunteers by using a recently-developed color Doppler velocity profile(CDVP). Of 28 patients undergone devascularization procedure, portal hemodynamics were studied and compared before and after operation. ResultsCSVmax of PT and RAB was significantly lower in cirrhotic group than normal group;PT and SV flow volume and the ratio of SV to PT flow volume(SV/PT)were significantly greater in cirrhotic group compared with those of normal group;CI of PT, RAB and SV was significantly higher in cirrhotic group than normal group. Postoperative PT flow volume was significantly reduced( P ＜0.01),and the reduction was closely related to preoperative SV flow volume( r = 0.65, P ＜0.001). CS-Vmax and flow volume in RAB were decreased significantly following operation( P ＜0.01), and the reduction of RAB flow volume was highly related to preoperative RAB flow volume( r =0.74, P ＜0.001). After operation, free portal pressure(FPP)was declined by (6 ± 5)cmH2O[ (0.59 ± 0.49)kPa] ( P ＜ 0.001 ). There were no significant changes in CS-Vmax, CI in PT and CI in RAB following operation. ConclusionIn cirrhotics with portal hypertension, portal venous system coexists the elevated vascular resistance and hyperdynamics, but with different redorainance at different portion. SV hyperdynamics is the main source of increased portal blood flow. Devascularization procedure could markedly relieve portal hyperdynamics by elimination of SV inflow, which is one of the main mechanisms in obmining therapeutic goal. But the operation has no favorable effects on the increased portal resistance,and portal perfusion to the liver would be further declined after relieving portal hyperdynamics, which is unfavorable to maintenance of liver function.
