AIM: To investigate the effect of FAK - related non - kinase ( FRNK) on the expression of membrane - type matrix metalloproteinase -1 ( MT1 - MMP) in hepatic stellate cells ( HSC). METHODS:FRNK were trans-fected into HSCs by cationic liposome method. The protein levels of FRNK in HSC were assayed by Western blotting. The levels of MT1 - MMP were determined by RT - PCR for mRNA and by Western blotting for protein, respectively. RESULTS: The up -regulated expression of FRNK protein was observed and it was at 48 h after transfection that the FRNK protein content was the highest ( P < 0.05 ). The expressions of MT1 - MMP mRNA and protein were also up - regulated by the transfection of FRNK, and it was at 48 h after transfection that the MT1 - MMP protein content was significantly increased. CONCLUSION: The mRNA and protein of FRNK were over - expressed in HSC transfected with the gene of FRNK. The inhibitory effect of FRNK on the collagen synthesis in HSC may be through the up - regulation of MT1 - MMP.

Objective To study the changes of portal vein pressure before and after interventional embolization with α-cyanoacrylate alkyl and their clinical significance. Methods Thirty five patients with esophageal-gastric variceal bleeding were included. Esophageal-gastric fundal varices were embolized with e-cyanoacrylate alkyl in 35 patients, and 10 of them were treated with combination of partial splenic emblization. Portal pressure was measured directly before and after interventional embolization. The patients were followed up for 3-18 months. The changes of the liver functions and complications after the embolization were observed. Results All bleeding were controlled successfully. The main portal pressure in those who received variceal embolization only increased significantly from (32.54±5.23) cm H2O (1 cm H2O=0. 098 kPa) to (37.45±5. 11) cm H2O; superior mesenteric vein pressure increased from (31.46±4.35) cmH2O to (34.33±4.68)cm H2O; and the level of serum albumin raised from (30.45±5.78) g/L to (34.57±6.84) g/L 3 weeks after embolization. Whereas the main portal pressure in those who received both variceal and partial splenic embolizations, decreased significantly from (32. 68±4. 89) cm H2O to (28. 70±4. 58) cm H2O; superior mesenteric vein pressure decreased from (31.46±4.35) cm H2O to (28.03±4.12) cm H2O; and splenic vein pressure decreased from (32.89±4.79) cm H2O to (28.81±5. 12) cm H2O.Conclusions Esophageal-gastric variceal embolization is effective for varieeal bleeding. The increase of main portal pressure after embolization may be benefit for liver function, while the rise of superior mesenteric vein pressure may increase the risk of portal hypertensive gastrointestinal re-bleeding.Esophageal-gastric variceal embolization combined with partial splenic embolization may reduce the incidence of portal hypertension and gastrointestinal re-bleeding, but will increase the risk of ascites.

Background and purpose: As the most common tracer used for PET/CT to detect malignant tumors. ~(18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (~(18)F-FDG) can reflect the metabolism of glucose. However, there exists physiologic uptake in the intestinal tract of healthy people. Because ileocecal foci is predilection site of malignant tumors and inflammatory disease, the purpose of this study was to investigate the discrimination of PET/CT detection of incidental ileocecal high FDG uptake. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 28 unexpected ileocecal focal uptake of ~(18)F-FDG localized by PET/CT, and then semi-quantitatively analyzed the extent of radioactive uptake in ileocecal foci. After PET/CT, the etiology of the findings was confirmed histologically by surgery, endoscopic or by long-term follow-up. All the data were assessed for statistical significance using one-way ANOVA. Results: In all the ileocecal foci, there were 14(50%) physiologic FDG uptake, 8 (28.6%) benign diseases and 6 (21.4%) malignant tumor. Maximal standardized uptake value was 5.2±1.6 in physiologic uptake, 6.8±4.1 in benign lesions and 12.8±5.5 in malignant lesions. There was statistically significant difference between malignant tumors and the other 2 groups. According to ROC analysis, when SUN_(max) was 6.75, the sensitivity and specificity of ileocecal malignant tumor were 100% and 86.4%, respectively. Conclusion: The significant value of discrimination between benign and malignant lesions of ileocecal focal FDG uptake by PET/CT was affirmative. It is very important to recognize physiologic uptake of ileocecal conjunction in the interpretation of image. Semi-quantitative analyze was not helpful to identify benign lesions from physiologic uptake.
