Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2000;0(08):-
Hepatitis B recurrence is one of the most frequent complications that will probably result the treat failure of liver transplantation. As many as 80% of patients with HBV are reinfected by this virus after liver transplantation. This has been the most deadly case that threatens patient survival amongst all problems emerging from liver transplantation executed for Hepatitis B ralated hepatocirrhosis. In recent years a great deal of prophylaxis practices have been adopted, which has greatly reduced the possibility of Hepatitis B recurrence. The present paper reviews the causes and treatment of Hepatitis B recurrence after liver transplantation.

Objective To summarize the experience of liver retransplantation, as well as the factors i nfluencing the surgical effects. Methods The clinical data of 8 patients who received liver retransplantation in our cent er were analyzed retrospectively. Results Among 8 cases, complications of biliary tract occurred in 5 cases, chronic rejec tions in 2 cases, embolism in hepatic artery in one case. Infections occurred in 7 cases before engraftment. Case 1 had develope d renal function failure before the surgery, and he died of severe infections an d multi-organ failure after transplantation. Case 4 had massive hemorrhage duri ng the operation and also died of multi-organ failure after transplantation. Case 7 developed in tracanial hemorrhage and abdominal infection and died early after transplantatio n. Other 5 cases has recovered and left hospital. Conclusions Liver retransplantation is the only measure that can be taken to save the lives of patients whose liver allograft fails to function. It's very important that the indications and time of retransplantation should be carefully selected. Factors that may lead to harmful effects on liver retranspl antation include bad preoperative condition of the recipient, tough and long ope ration, massive hemorrhage during the operation, and severe complications after the surgery.

Objective To study the effect of fragile histidine triad (FHIT) gene on pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells growth and tumorigenicity and explore the mechanism of FHIT gene in suppressing the deve lopment of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Methods By the method of liposome transfection, pRC/CMV FHIT plasmid was transfected into 1990 cell lines which lose all of FHIT gene. Integration and expression of exogenous FHIT gene were confirmed by RT PCR and Western blot technique. 1990 pFHIT cell growth was observed in regular culture medium and tumorigenicity in nude mice. Its DNA was analyzed by electrophoresis. Results The growth of the cells transfected with FHIT gene (named as 1990 pFHIT cells) was suppressed significantly, and the tumorigenicity of the 1990 pFHIT cells was dramatically inhibited in nude mice as compared with that of the parental 1990 cells. Significantly increased apoptosis in 1990 pFHIT was found. Conclusions The growth and tumorigenicity of pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell can be inhibited by transduced exogenous FHIT gene. It's spectulated that FHIT suppress the development of pancreatic adenocarcinoma by the path of apoptosis.

Objective To compare F-Z solution with UW solution in preserving efficacy at cell level. Methods The LDH content in supernatant of endothelial cells after preservation-rewarming to determine the injury after preservation-rewarming. MTT was used to determine the activity of endo-thelial cells after preservation-rewarming. Results After being preserved for 24 h, the LDH content in supernatant of endothelial cells in UW group was not significantly different from that in F-Z group.After preservation for 48 h, there was no marked difference in the activity of endothelial cells between the 2 groups. Conclusion F-Z solution and UW solution have the same effect in reducing injury and maintaining activity of endothelial cells after preservation-rewarming at cell level.
