Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2017;33(5):915-918
Objective To investigate the risk factors for recurrence after surgery for biliary pancreatitis.Methods A total of 284 patients with biliary pancreatitis who were treated in The Fourth Hospital of PLA from January 2008 to December 2014 were followed up,and the risk factors for postoperative recurrence were analyzed.The chi-square test was used for categorical data,and the unconditional logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis.Results The follow-up period ranged from 6 to 27 months (mean 36.4 ± 8.4 months).Of all patients,27 experienced recurrence,and the recurrence rate was 9.51%.The univariate analysis showed that postoperative recurrence was associated with a family history of gallstone disease,high-fat diet,sand-like stones,intrahepatic bile duct stones,biliopancreatic duct opening stenosis,and diverticulum around the ampullar region (x2 =8.721,5.979,8.641,15.996,33.833,and 27.203,all P <0.05).The multivariate logistic analysis showed that high-fat diet (OR =2.296,P =0.012),biliopancreatic duct opening stenosis (OR =2.280,P =0.007),and diverticulum around the ampullar region (OR =2.522,P =0.009) were independent risk factors for recurrence after surgery for biliary pancreatitis.Conclusion Biliary pancreatitis patients with high-fat diet,biliopancreatic duct opening stenosis,or diverticulum around the ampullar region tend to experience recurrence after surgery.Intervention and close follow-up should be performed for these patients to prevent recurrence.
4.Primary study on the differentiation mechanism of embryonic stem cells to epidermal like cells induced by human amnion
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2000;0(07):-
AIM: To investigate the mechanism by which human amnion induced mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells to differentiate into epidermal like cells. METHODS: ES-BALB/c cells were cocultured with human amnion in transwells for 4-5 days, and those cultured alone without amnion were taken as control group. The morphological differentiation were observed. The committed differentiation of ES cells into epidermal like cells were detected by integrin-?_1, CK19, CK15 and involucrin immunohistochemistry, respectively. RESULTS: After 4-5 days of coculture, ES cells differentiated into single layer of epidermal like cells, fitted tightly, with polyhedral in shape. The immunohistochemical staining results showed that, most of the cells were integin-?_1 positive, only a few cells were CK19 and CK15 positively stained. Most of the cells in control group died, the survived ones were different in morphological shapes, and no integrin-?_1, CK19 and CK15 positive cells were found. CONCLUSION: Soluble substances secreted by human amnion may play an important role in inducing the differentiation of mouse ES cells into epidermal like cells. [

7.Expression and clinical significance of ZNF580 mRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma: An analysis based on The Cancer Genome Atlas database
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2019;35(10):2231-2235
ObjectiveTo investigate the expression and clinical value of ZNF580 mRNA in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), as well as the role of ZNF580 mRNA in the development and progression of HCC. MethodsHCC dataset was downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to obtain the gene expression profile and clinical information of ZNF580 mRNA. The bioinformatics method was used to analyze the association between the expression of ZNF580 mRNA in HCC and clinicopathological indices and the influence of ZNF580 mRNA on prognosis. A gene enrichment analysis was used to predict the possible pathways of ZNF580 mRNA involved in the regulation of HCC. The t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The Cox proportional-hazards regression model was used to investigate the risk factors for prognosis, and hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. ResultsIn the TCGA dataset, the expression of ZNF580 mRNA in tumor tissue was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissue (8.440±0.705 vs 7.736±0.387, P<0.05), and there was a significant difference in the expression of ZNF580 mRNA between the patients with different tumor grades (t=-2.068, P<0.05). The patients with high expression of ZNF580 mRNA had a significantly shorter overall survival time than those with low expression (χ2=5.456, P<0.05). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that ZNF580 mRNA expression [HR(95%CI)=1.600(1.079~2.372)] and TNM stage [HR(95%CI)=2.006(1.394~2.888)] were independent risk factors for overall survival time of HCC patients (both P<0.05). The samples with high expression of ZNF580 mRNA showed enrichment of genes in the pathways of ribosome and Huntington’s disease (all P<0.05, FDR=0.198,0.243). ConclusionZNF580 mRNA may act as an oncogene in HCC and is expected to become an indicator for prognostic evaluation of HCC and a potential therapeutic target for HCC.

Objective To detect infection of Angiostrongylus cantonensis and examine effection of treatment to prepare monoclonal antibodies(McAbs). Methods Six-week-old BALB/c mice were imrnunized by the intraperitoneal injection of e/s antigens of Angiostrongylus cantonensis. Fusion of splecn cells from immunized mice with prepared SP2/0-Ag14 myeloma cells was performed in RPMI 1640. Fused cells were suspended in RPMI 1640 containing 1% HAT and 20% fetal calf serum and dispensed into 96-well cell culture plates. The supernatants of clones were screened by ELISA with sera of patients of angiostrongyliasis.Distribution of cohere antigen of 12D5 and 21B7 monoclonal antibodies was analyzed with immunohistochemistry. Two McAbs ( 12D5 and 21B7) were applied to detect the circulating antigen (CAg) in the sera of rats infected with A. cantonensis and angiostrongyliasis patients respectively by double antibody sandwich ELISA.Results 12D5 McAb was identified as IgG1 and 21 B7 McAb was IgM. Western blot result showed two McAbs could used to identified 55 × 103 protein of adult worms of A. cantonensis. Cohere antigen of 12D5 and 21B7 monoclonal antibodies were distributed on intestine surface of A. cantonensis. The detection rates of CAg in the sera of infected rats 100% (48/48), the detection rates of CAg in the sera of angiostrongyliasis patients was 100% (32/32). No cross-reaction to sera of patients with other infection of parasites, such as clonochiasis, fasiolopsiasis, ancylostomiasis, trichinosis, anisakiasis as well as schsitosomiasis, and health srea did not reacted with 12D5 and 21B7 McAbs,and detaction rate of antibody of angiostrongyliasis patients only reached 75% (24/32) with antigen of A. cantonensis. Conclusion Cohere antigen of 12D5 and 21B7monoclonal antibodies were antigens of enteric epithelium. Sandwich ELISA with 12D5 and 21B7 McAbs showed high specificity act as detecting CAg of A. cantonensis in sera of infection animal and patients. It is apparent that Sandwich ELISA with 12D5 and 21 B7 is not only rapid and simple without requirement of special instrument, but also rather sensitive and specific for the detection of current infection with A. cantonensis.
