3.Progress and hot spots of comprehensive treatment for primary liver cancer
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2021;20(2):163-170
The treatment principle for primary liver cancer referring as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in this article is comprehensive treatment based on radical hepatectomy. Focusing on improving the resection rate and reducing the recurrence rate after operation, the conversion therapy, preoperative neoadjuvant therapy and postoperative adjuvant therapy have emerged to become potentially curative strategies and research hotspots. HCC is highly invasive and often complicated with cirrhosis, so comprehensive treatment is essential for better prognosis. However, due to the controversy of surgical indications and heterogeneity among individuals, the concepts and treatment methods of above three therapies, especially between the conversion therapy and the preoperative neoadjuvant therapy, remain overlap and puzzle sometimes. Moreover, because of the different therapy goals, the above three therapies are different in the selection of treatment methods, duration of therapy and evaluation criteria. Based on clinical practice, the authors investigate the progress and hot spots of the conversion therapy, preoperative neoadjuvant therapy and post-operative adjuvant therapy of HCC, expecting more clinical evidence-based medicine to standardize the development of comprehensive treatment, so as to become a breakthrough to improve the diagnosis and treatment of HCC.

Objective To understand the mechanism of vitamin A deficiency(VAD) impairing the mucosal immunity and the influences of VAD on cytokines response of intestinal mucosa in rats. Method The rat model with VAD was established,and intestinal infection was induced by typhoid salmonella orally administered. The fresh ileum tissue samples were taken,and ELISA and RT-quantity PCR were used to detect the production of cytokines,including IFN-?,IL-2,IL-4,IL-6,IL-10 and IL-12,by intestinal mucosa in protein and mRNA levels. Results IL-12,the cytokine produced by dendritic cells,was markedly increased in VAD rats,and the level was further raised when the VAD rats were complicated by intestinal infection. The Th1 cytokines,IFN-? and IL-2,were reduced in VAD rats. IL-4,the main Th2 cytokine,was significantly decreased after intestinal infection,especially in VAD rats. IL-6 mRNA was lower in VAD rats and after intestinal infection compared with that of the VA normal control. IL-10 mRNA was also declined in VAD rats,and more markedly reduced after intestinal infection. Conclusion The regulation of VAD onproduction of cytokines in local intestinal mucosa is likely to be an important mechanism of VAD affecting intestinal mucosal immunity.
