Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery 2014;20(3):232-235
Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the pancreas is uncommon in clinic,which has a low malignancy,maintains indolent patterns of growth,and has a good long-term prognosis.However,because of its atypical clinical manifestation,its delayed presentation often results in distant metastasis,in which the liver is the most common site.Currently,the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine liver metastasis is limited and requires a diverse and multidisciplinary combination of therapy.This manuscript will discuss the current status of treating pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma liver metastasis.

Objective To construct double expression retroviral vectors targeting chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) b3a2-type mRNA and investigate its effect on the phenotype of K562 cells. Methods The eGFP coding sequence was inserted into the retroviral vector pMSCV-neo to construct pMSCV/GFP, then H1-RNA pol III-based transcription cassettes was subcloned into it to form pMSCV/GFP-H1-BCR/ABL40AS. Two control vectors pMSCV/GFP-H1-BCR/ABL40S & pMSCV/GFP-H1-BCR/ABL80AS were constructed in addition. All these constructions were identified by restriction enzyme analysis and DNA sequencing. After that, the recombinant vectors were transferred into retrovirus packaging cell line PT67 by using lipofectamine2000, and G418 were used to select stable virus-producing cell lines. Viral titer was determined by infection of NIH3T3 cells sequentially. The cell-growth curve was assayed, cell apoptosis was checked with Annexin V-PE/7AAD double staining and flow cytometry analysis after 24-hour infection, the PKR phosphorylation was assayed by Western blotting. Results The plasmids were successfully constructed. Four cell lines, named as PT67-MSCV/GFP, PT67-40as, PT67-40s and PT67-80as were gained by G418 selection, and virus titers were 6.2?10~ 5 , 5.6?10~ 5 , 4.6?10~ 5 and 6.0?10~ 5 CFU/ml respectively. PT67-40as suspensions could induce K562 cell apoptosis by (22.54?3.19)%, significantly different from PT67-MSCV/GFP or PT67-40s (P

Malignant biliary obstruction is often in an advanced stage at the time of diagnosis, and palliative relief of obstruction has become the main treatment option. Biliary stent implantation is currently the most widely used treatment for the relief of biliary obstruction, but stent reobstruction has become a common problem in clinical practice. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combined with intraductal radiofrequency ablation can solve the problem of direct obstruction in malignant biliary obstruction and improve stent patency rate, survival time, and survival rate, with few complications and a low surgery-related mortality rate, and therefore, it can be used as a safe and feasible palliative treatment method for malignant biliary obstruction.

Objective To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of ABO-incompatible living donor liver transplantation (ABO-I LDLT) and compare with ABO-compatible LDLT (ABO-C LDLT). Methods A systematic search of multiple databases at home and abroad was conducted to retrieve the literatures related to the statistical comparison of clinical efficacy between ABO-I LDLT and ABO-C LDLT. The literature screening was conducted, the quality of literatures was evaluated and data extraction was performed. Using Rev Man 5.3 software, a Meta-analysis was performed by random effect model or fixed effect model. Results A total of 432 articles were searched, and 6 articles published in English were eventually included according to the inclusion criteria. The Meta-analysis demonstrated that there was no significant difference in the postoperative 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rate of the recipients and grafts and the incidence of rejection responses between the ABO-I LDLT and ABO-C LDLT groups (all P≥0.05). The incidence of postoperative biliary complications and hepatic artery embolization in the ABO-I LDLT group was significantly higher than that in the ABO-C LDLT group [odds ratio (OR)=2.08, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.25-3.45, P=0.005; OR=2.24, 95%CI 1.03-4.89, P=0.04]. Conclusions Compared with the ABO-C LDLT, ABO-I LDLT yields lower clinical efficacy, whereas it is still an effective method for the treatment of end-stage liver disease.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the antioxidant and anti-endotoxin effects of propofol on endothelial cells and the possible mechanisms.
METHODSCultured endothelial cells were treated with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), propofol + H(2)O(2), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and propofol + LPS, respectively. Endothelial cell damage was monitored for possible lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) release. The transcription and the protein expression levels of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) were measured.
RESULTSLDH release was higher in groups treated with H(2)O(2) or LPS than in the control group. After pretreatment with propofol, the effects induced by H(2)O(2) were attenuated, but propofol did not decrease the LDH release induced by LPS. Both H(2)O(2) and LPS significantly increased the eNOS transcript levels and the increases were significantly attenuated after pretreatment with propofol. Both H(2)O(2) and LPS significantly increased the eNOS protein expression and the increase was attenuated after pretreatment with propofol.
CONCLUSIONPropofol could protect endothelial cells against oxidative stress by inhibiting eNOS transcription and protein expression, but could not antagonise endotoxin induced cell injuries.
