Objective To investigate the donor-related risk factors for long-term biliary complications after liver transplantation (LT) from organ donation by citizens after death.Methods The clinical data of 140 donors who donated the organs after death for LT in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between April 2016 and April 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.The incidence of long-term biliary complications after LT in the recipients was observed,and the relationship between the incidence and the clinical indexes of the donors was analyzed.The influencing factors for long-term biliary complications after LT were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results The incidence of long-term biliary complications after LT in the recipients was 9.29% (13/140).The incidence of donation after cardiac death (DCD) group and donation after brain death (DBD) group was 9.68% (6/62) and 8.97% (7/78) respectively.There was no significant difference between the two groups.Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed the long-term biliary complications after LT was related with cerebrovascular accident cause,the second warm ischemia time,steatosis of liver,history of cardiopulmonary resuscitation,dosage of dopamine before procurement and hypoproteinemia.Multivariate logistic regression analysis (removing warm ischemia time) revealed the independent influencing factors for long-term biliary complications after LT from organ donation were the second warm ischemia time (OR =1.106,95% CI:1.034-1.181;P<0.05),steatosis of liver (OR =5.319,95% CI:1.020-27.752;P<0.05) and dosage of dopamine before procurement (OR =1.279,95% CI:1.021-1.601;P < 0.05).Conclusion Postoperative long-term biliary complication is one of the major complications after LT from organ donation.The independent risk factors should be strictly controlled,as the second warm ischemia time,steatosis of liver and dosage of dopamine before procurement are contributed to the incidence of long-term biliary complications.

Objective Proteolysis of the C-terminal fragment (CTFβ) of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) generates the Aβ peptides associated with Alzheimer' s disease (AD).The metabolism of CTFβ may play key roles in early stage of AD before Aβ generation.The aim of this study was to express,identify and purify the CTFβ,so as to provide evidence for its application in the development of AD detection system.Methods APP gene was used as the template,and the gene of CTFβ was cloned to pMD18-T vector through PCR.After sequencing,the CTFβ gene was cloned into the expression vector pET-30a(+) to construct the recombinant expression plasmid pET30a-CTFβ.The expression plasmid was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 and the expression of CTFβ was induced by Isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG).The effect of expression was confirmed by Western blottng.The recombinant protein was purified by using Ni-NTA affinity chromatography column,and the immunoreactivity of recombinant protein was detected by Western blotting and indirect ELISA.Results Western Blot results showed that recombinant protein was solubly expressed in E.coli and its molecular weight was about 10 × 103 to 25 × 103,and the size of fusion protein was consistent with prediction.In addition,the data of Western blotting showed that there were still some thick bands above the position of 80 × 103.Furthermore,the immunoblotting demonstrated that the 10× 103 to 25 × 103 of monomer of fusion protein was recognized by anti-histidine (his) tag and anti-Aβ (17-24) (4G8) antibody,while the high molecular aggregates were above 80 × 103 which were detected respectivly by anti-his,anti-Aβ antibody NU1,NU4 and A8.However,our data suggested that the bands above 80 × 103 were poorly recognized by fibril specific antibody NU6.These results demonstrated that the purified recombinant protein showed a specific immunoreactivity.Finally,indirect ELISA showed that the optimal concentration of CTFβ to coat the ELISA plate was 1 ng/well when it was used to detect Aβ antibody.Conclusion In this study,one of the aggregate-prone fragment of APP,CTFβ,was successfully expressed,purified,and identified,which would provide experimental clue to futher application in biochemical diagnosis of AD.
