Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of metallothionein(MTs)gene expression and explore the important significance of MTs during hepatocarcinogenesis.Methods One hundred and twenty-five SPF 5 -8-week old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group and model group.Diethylnitrosamine (DEN) was given to the mice at a dose of 100 mg/kg, ip, and 50 mg/kg, ip, in the first and next week, respectively.The mice were given ethanol (53%, 5 mL/kg/day, 5 days/week) from the third week of experiment till 35 weeks.At 1, 3, 9, 13, 24 and 35 weeks of the experiment, liver samples were taken for histopathological examination of liver damages and incidence of HCC. The liver index and malondialdehyde (MDA) of liver homogenate were determined.All liver tissue samples were examined by histopathology using hematoxylin and eosin (HE), Masson and reticular fiber staining.Real-time RT-PCR was used to analyze the mRNA expression level of liver metallothionein-1 /2 (MT-1 /2) in different periods.Results Progressive liver damages in model group mice were identified in different periods.Hepatocytes abnormal tission and abnormal liver plate structure, architecture often characteristic of HCC could be seen in approximately 50% of mice at 35 weeks.In addition to these, a higher liver index also were seen at 35 weeks.Increased MDA levels in the mouse liver tissues were observed in each stage.Real-time RT-PCR analysis showed that significantly increased transcription of MT-1 and MT-2 at 1, 3 and 9 weeks, then gradually declined and even below the normal level.Conclusions MTs gene expression levels in mouse liver tissues are changed from significantly increased in the early stage of injury to decreased expression combined with distinct fibrosis. Our findings further demonstrate that the down-regulation of MTs level is closely correlated with hepatocarcinogenesis.

Orthopedic Journal of China 2006;0(06):-
[Objective]To compare the purity and extraction rate of four purecollagen type I products prepared from various biomaterials by a limited enzyme digestion method for the use in tissue engineering.[Method]Bovine cortical bone, bovine achilles tendon, porcine achilles tendon and porcine skin were splitted into pieces of 0.2-0.5 mm. After being immersed in glacial acetic acid, they were extracted with pepsin. Then the crude products were dissolved, centrifuged, dialyzed and freeze drying to prepare pure collagen type I. The final products were confirmed by absorbance, amino acid analysis and'SDS-PAGE electrophoresis comparing them with the products of Sigma Company.[Result]The wave length of maximum absorbance of the final products was 230 nm, and the amino acid analysis and SDS-PAGE electrophoresis confirmed that the final products were collagen type I. The purity of product extracted from bovine cortical bone was the highest (96.12%) and higher than that from Sigma Company. The extraction rate of bovine achilles tendon collagen was the highest (75.34%).[Conclusion]Collagen type I of higher purity and higher extraction rate can be prepared using a limited enzyme digestion method.And the product from bovine cortical bone is better than the others,which has a promising prospect.
