Objective To investigate the significance of cortactin in primary liver cancer. Methods Fiftythree paraffin embedded primary liver cancer specimens were collected at General Hospital of Air Force of PLA from January 2002 to May 2008. The expression of cortactin was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the relationship between cortactin expression and clinicopathologic parameters was analyzed. All data were analyzed via Wilcoxon rank sum test and Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results There was a significant difference in cortactin expression among tumor capsule integrity, TNM staging, portal vein tumor thrombus and extrahepatic metastasis (u =2. 19, 3. 584, 2. 796, P ＜ 0.05 ). There was a positive correlation between tumor invasion and cortactin expression ( r = 0. 5794, P ＜ 0.05 ). Conclusions Overexpression of cortactin may be one of the factors enhancing the invasion of primary liver cancer. The level of cortactin expression can be used in evaluating the invasive potential of primary liver cancer.

Objective: To investigate the cinlical features and therapeutic methods of unex-pected gallbladder carcinoma. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed in 19 cases of unexpected gallbladder carcinoma treated in our hospital from April 2002 to April 2008. Results: Ten cases in early stage were perfomed gallbaldder resection and local lymph node removal, and the average survival time was 18.7 months; 4 cases were perfomed extend radical resection, and the average survival time was 12.3 months; 5 cases were performed palliative resection, and the survival time was less than 6 months. Conclusions: Frozen section examination during opera-tion is key to diagnose unexpected gallbladder carcinoma. Radical resection is the first option once the diagnosis is confirmed, and the method can be decided according to Nevin classification and B ultrosound scaning during opreation.

Objective To develop a rapid donor liver harvesting method in orthotopic liver transplantation in rats,and to study the stability and the success rate of the model.Methods A total of 200 healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group(rapid donor liver harvesting transplant group),and the control group(conventional liver transplant group).The operation time,cold(ischemic) time and warm ischemic time of the donor liver, recipient post-transplation liver function and the success rate of the operation between the 2 grous were cpmpared.Results In the control group,the(operation) time of donor harvesting was(33.8?4.2) min,warm ischemic time and cold ischemic time of donor liver was(3.5?1.2) min and(62.0?4.2) min,with a 80% rate of success.The new method reduced the time for donor surgery to(13.1?2.2)min,and reduced the warm ischemic time and cold(ischemic) time of donor liver to 0 min and(38.0?3.1)min respectively,and with a 94% rate of success(all P

BACKGROUND:The key of stem cells for treating nervous tissue injury is the transplantation of stem coils that have regeneration capacity.The structure and function of central nervous system were re-established by multiple action mechanisms.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects and mechanisms of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)locally transplanted into rats with spinal cord injury on neurological recovery.METHODS:BMSCs were separated with density gradient centrifugation and cell attachment.10 mg/L BrdU was used for labeling before cell transplantation.Adult female Wistar rats were used to establish spinal cord injury models using an aneurysm clip,and they were then randomly divided into control group,saline group and transplantation group.In the transplantation group,BMSCs were transplanted into the damaged spinal cord by stereotaxis at day 7 following damage.In the saline group,an equal volume of saline was utilized.In the control group,the rats were left intact.Basso,Beattie and Bresnahan(BBB)locomotor rating scale was used before and at 7,14,30,60 and 90 days following damage.Rats were sacrificed at day 90.BrdU-positive cells,Brdu+neuron specific enolase,Brdu+glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP),Brdu+basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF),and Brdu+brain-derived nerve growth factor(BDNF)immunohistochemistry double-staining cells and simple staining positive calls were observed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The recovery of BBB function score was better in the transplantation group than in the control group(P＜0.05).The recovery speed of BBB function score was slower in the saline group than in the control group at 30 days following damage(P＜0.05).No significant difference was determined at day 90 compared with the control group(P＞0.05).BrdU-positive cells and double-staining cells of immunohistochemistry could be found at the center of damage site and 1 cm from caudal end to damaged site in rats of the transplantation group.The number of NSE,GFAP,bFGF and BDNF simple staining cells was significantly greater in the transplantation group than in the control and saline groups(P＜0.05).Results indicated that BMSC transplantation can improve the recovery of nervous function of rats with spinal cord injury.Its mechanism may be correlated with the differentiation of transplanted cells into neuron-like and glial cell-like cells,secretion or promoting secretion of neurotrophic factors in host.

Objective To investigate the expression and the early diagnostic significance of heat shock protein 70 in acute allograft rejection of liver-transplamed rats. Methods The model of rat orthotopic liver transplantation was made by using a modified "two-cuff technique". The rats were randomly divided into 3 groups. For each group, donors and receptors all included 15 rats respectively. The control group: Wistar to Wistar liver transplantation; The untreated group: SD to Wistar liver transplantation, not receiving any immunosuppressant after liver transplantation; The treatment group: SD to Wistar liver transplantation, receiving intramuscular injection of tacrolimus (FKS06, 2mg kg-1. day-1) after operation. Five rats were executed randomly in every group on the post-transplantation day 3, 5 and 7 and the graft samples were obtained for optical microscopic observation. The expression of HSPT0 in grafts was detected by using immunohistochemical method and RT-PCR. The correlation between acute rejection following liver transplantation and the expression of HSP70 in grafted liver was studied. Results There was no acute rejection examined in the control group. The untreated group showed typical allograft rejection and the rejection activity index (RIA) went up gradually after the operation (P<0.01). The treatment group showed no rejection or borderline allograft rejection. The level of HSP70 was increased transiently after operation, then reduced in the control group (P<0.05). The level of HSP70 in the untreated group was higher than in the control groupand gradually increased with the prolongation of time after transplantation (P<0.01). A significant correlation was found between HSP70 and pathological score in the untreated group (P<0.01). The treatment group showed low levels of HSP70 of all the time. Conclusions The expression of HSP70 in grafts is closely related to the occurrence and development of the acute rejection and can be useful for early diagnosis of acute allograft rejection following liver transplantation.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of microwave tissue coagulation assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy for the treatment of hepatic tumors.Methods 29 patients underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy using microwave liver tissue coagulation from December 2011 to June 2014 in the General Air Force Hospital.All patients underwent intraoperative ultrasound guided microwave coagulation assisted laparoscopic local hepatectomy.Intraoperative blood loss,operation time,postoperative hospital stay and complications were observed.Results All the operations were successfully performed without conversion to open surgery.There were 18 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),2 cases of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma,2 cases of hepatic metastases from the rectal carcinoma,5 cases of hepatic hemangioma,1 case of hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia and 1 case of hepatic cystadenoma.Drainage tubes were placed in 3 patients and removed 5-7 d after the operation.The operation time was 150 (125-210) miu,the median amount of intraoperative bleeding was 120 (30-250) ml,the postoperative hospital stay was 7 (5-10) d.All patients recovered well after the operation and no complications such as intraabdominal bleeding and bile leakage were observed.The cutting edges of liver cancer of these 22 cases were negative.The postoperative follow-up time of these 22 cases were 3-36 months and no tumor recurrence and metastasis were observed.Conclusions Laparoscopic liver resection using intraoperative ultrasound guided microwave hepatic tissue coagulation can effectively control the bleeding,improve the safety of laparoscopic liver resection,which makes it a safe and effective minimally invasive technique.
