The permanent cast embolization of the hepatic arteria with cyanoacrylate was per formed in 28 cases with inoperable hepatocarcinoma (10 cases of ⅡA stage, 12 cases of ⅡB stage, 6 cases of Ⅲ stage) since March 1985. The serum AFP level fell and 5 returned to normal. The tumout was undetected either by CT or US in 8 cases.The maximun surviving time was above 32 months with one-year survival rate averaged 52.99%(9/17) and two-year survival rate of 20% (2/10). For better results we suggest: 1. early hepatecotomy after embolism. 2. synthetic therapy for cancer emboli in the 1-3 grade portal branch. Embolization in hepatic artery co bimned with gastric coronary vein have been performed in 3 cases with portal vena hypertension and varices The average surviving time is above 15 months.

Objective To determine the changes of gene expression profile in small intestinal allograft in rats after ischemic preconditioning(IPC),and to study the mechanism of graft protection of IPC.Methods Rats are randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operation(S group),small bowel transplant(SBT group)and IPC small bowel transplant group(ISBT group).Total RNAs was extracted from intestine of the 3 groups 1h after the intestine remored and cold preservation/reperfusion,and then purified to mRNA.mRNAs was then reversely transcribed to cDNA and to prepare hybridization probes.The mixed probes were hybridized to the cDNA microarray.After high-stringent washing,the fluorescent signals on cDNA microarray were scanned and analyzed.Results Among the 4 096 target genes,297 differentially expressed genes were identified between normal intestine and intestinal allograft in ISBT group;among those 84 genes which have been reported,including 18 genes expressing down and 66 genes expressing up regulation.Differentially expressing genes could be related to the protective effect of IPC.Conclusions The mechanisms of protective effect of IPC on cells of the graft are by modulation of genes related to cell adhesion,related to cellular energy and metabolism,and related to the signal transmission of the cells.

Objective To improve the surgical technique to establish a simple model of heterotopic segmental small bowel transplantation in rats. Methods The segmental intestine was harvested with "non-injury"technique and consisted of donor aortic segment with superior mesenteric artery and portal vein, after perfused in situ with lactated Ringer's solution, the graft was stored in 4℃ lactated Ringer's solution for about 1 h. The heterotopic segmental intestine transplantation was performed by end-to-side anastomosis of donor aorta to recipient aorta. The left kidney of the recipient was resected and the donor's portal vein was anastomosed to the recipient left renal vein by" cuff anastomosis". Results A total of 87 intestine transplantations were performed, 26 of them was regarded as formal experiment group.The average time for the arterial and venous anastomosis were 25～30min and 5 min.Among the 26 recipient rats,21 survived more than 3days.The average survival was 8.93?2.59 days, The longest survival was 14 days in this group. Conclusions It is indicated that the keys of success of small intestinal transplantation are as follows:the high quality graft,excellent anastomosis of blood vessels and adequate liquid supplement.

Objective To investigate the role of splenic macrophage(M) in the occurrence of hypersplenism in patients with portal hypertension(PHT). Methods The changes in the quantity, distribution, ultrastructure of M, the quantity acid phophatase in M ,and the quantity of M phagocytizing blood cells were determined by immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy in the normal and PHT spleen. Results Compared with normal spleen, the cell density of the M in PHT spleen decreased;and the quantity of acid phophatase in M increased; the surface folopodia of M increased and lengthened;and the quantity of lysosome in M and the quantity of M phagocytizing blood cells increased. Conclusions The splenic M may play an important role in the occurrence of hypersplenism in PHT.

Objective:To study the protective effects of exogenous nucleotides on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)immunnostimulation and its mechanism.Method:Forty healthy Kunming mice were randomly divided into five groups:control group,nucleotides(NT)groups(4h,18h),nucleotides free(NF)groups(4h,18h).Control group and NF groups were fed with nucleotide-free diet.NT groups were fed with nucleotide-supplemented diet(0.25% nucleotides).On D 15,mice were lavaged with physiological saline(control)or LPS,and were killed 4 or 18 h later.Serum,liver,small intestine,and peritoneal macrophage were sampled in germfree state.Results:Hepatic Na+K+-ATPase,intestinal superoxide dismutase(SOD),serum total anti-oxidation ability,peritoneal macrophage-produced interleukin 10(IL-10)were increased,and intestinal malonaldehyde(MDA),serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT),intestinal myeloperoxidase(MPO),peritoneal macrophage-produced interleukin 1(IL-1)were decreased with nucleotides supplement.Conclusion:Exogenous nucleotides can help to maintain oxidation-antioxidation and inflammation-antiinflammation balance,and protect mice from injury under LPS immunostimulation.

Objective:To investigate the antihypertensive effects of mung bean protein,peanut protein and rice protein alcalase hydrolysates with in vitro angiotensin I-converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR) . Method:The impact of digestive proteases on ACE inhibitory activity of hydrolysates of peanut,mung bean and rice protein isolates were evaluated under simulated gastrointestinal digestion and their antihypertensive effects were investigated in SHR after single oral administration. Results:All of three kinds of protein hydrolysates showed antihypertensive activities after single oral administration at a dose of 600 mg/kg bw,most potent in mung bean protein while least in peanut protein. There were no significant changes in the heart rate of SHR after oral administration of protein hydrolysates. Conclusion:Mung bean protein,peanut protein and rice protein hydrolysates all showed antihypertensive activity,but their potent inhibitory activities on ACE did not correlate with their antihypertensive activities found in SHR.

Neurogenic tumors located in the posterior mediastinum, generally require surgery which be confronted with greater risk,therefore, to design the best surgical approach and surgical methods is essential. A 67-year-old female patient had pharyngeal foreign body sensation and dysphagia. Thyroid ultrasound showed the right thyroid had a little nodule, and the left thyroid had a hypoechoic lumps. Neck enhanced CT showd mediastinal mass, esophageal tumor origin or stromal tumor? We used the jugular approach to resect the tumor which eventually diagnosed as schwannoma. The meditational benign tumor with an envelope easy to peel can employ the jugular approach to resect it completely.
