Objective:To explore the efficient construction of HSF1 gene knockout mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology, and to establish the early basis for the mouse model of primary osteosarcoma.Methods:According to exon 9 of HSF1 gene structure, the corresponding GRNA (guideRNA) was selected and screened. Then the transcription template of sgRNA (small guide RNA) was amplified by PCR, and four up stream primers were obtained. Subsequently, sgRNA was transcribed in vitro and screened by Tube Screen platform to screen the sgRNA with effective cutting, and the sgRNA with the highest cutting efficiency was selected from the screening results for subsequent experiments. The transcription template of SPCas9mRNA was amplified by PCR, and then Cas9mRNA was transcribed in vitro. The sgRNA transcribed in vitro and Cas9mRNA were injected into the fertilized eggs of healthy C57BL/6 mice, and the tissue was extracted from the tail of the born mice and identified by PCR sequencing. Heterozygous female mice of F0 generation were selected to mate with wild-type male mice too btain F1 generation off spring. The mutation of gene bases of F1 generation mice was detected by AGAR gel electrophoresis and gene sequencing. The heterozygous male mice of the F1 generation and female mice of the F0 generation were back crossed to obtain the F2 generation daughter mice. The tail tissues were cut and sequenced to obtain the F2 generation homozygous knockout mice. PCR was used to observe the cutting efficiency of sgRNA and the sequencing of rat tail tissue, and SNAPGene software was used for gene sequence alignment to determine the deletion of base fragments.Results:The up stream primers sgRNA-1 Primer-f, sgRNA-2 Primer-f, sgRNA-3 Primer-f, sgRNA-4 Primer-f and down stream primers sgRNA-4 Primer -r were obtained by PCR amplification. After in vitro tran scription and screening of sgrRNA, sgrRNA-1, sgrRNA-2 and sgrRNA-4 had high cleavage efficiency and were selected for subsequent experiments. T7 promoter was added to the 5 'end of Cas9 mRNA, and Cas9 mRNA was obtained by PCR and in vitro transcription kit. Mixed Cas9-sgRNA solution was injected into the fertilized eggs of mice and cultured. The cultured two-cell fertilized eggs were injected into the ampulla of the pseudo pregnant female mice, and the F0 generation mice were obtained successfully. A total of 8 heterozygous mice of F0 generation were obtained by Agar gel electrophoresis. Three heterozygous knockout mice of F1 generation were obtained by breeding the female heterozygous mice of F0 generation with healthy wild-type male mice and PCR and sequencing. Three heterozygous male mice of F1 generation were back crossed with female mice of F0 generation 3 to obtain F2 generation mice. Through the observation of electrophoresis and sequencing results of F2 generation mice, it was confirmed that 7 mice were missing HSF1 base sequence, and the electrophoresis results showed mutant bands and no wild-type bands, which were identified as homozygous. The F2 generation homozygous mice were able to breed stably. As eries of results proved that the HSF1 gene knockout mouse model was successfully established in this experiment.Conclusion:CRISPR/Cas9 technology was successfully used to construct HSF1 gene knockout mouse model, with strong stability and high reproducibility, which laida foundation for further study of HSF1 gene expression products and establishment of mouse model of primary osteosarcoma.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The aim of this study was to investigate the primary management experience for giant liver hemangiomas greater than 20 cm in size. METHODS: Records of patients referred for evaluation of radiologically and/or histopathologically proven giant liver hemangiomas between January 2007 and March 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. The reasons for referral, results of imaging studies, preoperative and surgical treatments, and outcome were reviewed. RESULTS: A retrospective analysis was performed for 14 patients diagnosed with a giant hemangioma on the basis of an imaging study and/or a histopathological examination. All cases were diagnosed as giant liver hemangioma with at least one lesion greater than 20 cm in size. Abdominal discomfort was the main presenting complaint for the referral in 9 patients (64.2%). Abdominal ultrasound established the diagnosis in 12 patients (85.7%). Twelve patients underwent liver resection, 2 of whom underwent staged resection. Enucleation was performed in 2 patients. Selective transcatheter arterial embolization was implemented in 9 patients. Postoperative morbidity occurred in 3 patients (21.4%). No complications related to the hemangiomas occurred during follow up. CONCLUSIONS: Liver resection is indicated for giant liver hemangiomas with abdominal discomfort, especially for lesions greater than 20 cm in size. Staged operations are performed for patients with multiple lesions. Preoperative selective transcatheter arterial embolization alleviates progressive abdominal pain.

Objective To explore the indications for liver transplantation among patients with hepatolithiasis.Methods Data from 1 431 consecutive patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent surgical treatment from January 2000 to December 2006 were retrospectively collected for analysis.Surgical procedures included T-tube insertion combined with intraoperative cholangioscopic removal of intrahepatic stones,hepatectomy,cholangiojejunostomy,and liver transplantation.Results Nine hundred and sixty-one patients who had a stone located in the left or right intrahepatic duct underwent hepatectomy or T-tube insertion combined with intraoperative cholangioscopic removal of intrahepatic stones.The rate of residual stones was 7.5%(72/961).Four hundred and seventy patients who had a stone located in the bilateral intrahepatic ducts underwent surgical procedures other than liver transplantation;the rate of residual stones was 21.7%(102/470).Only 15 patients with hepatolithiasis underwent liver transplantation;they all survived.According to the degree of biliary cirrhosis,recipients were divided into 2 groups: a group with biliary decompensated cirrhosis(n=7),or group with biliary compensated cirrhosis or noncirrhosis group(n=8).There were significant differences in operative times,transfusion volumes and blood losses between 2 groups(P

Hepatic sclerosing hemangioma (HSH) is a rare benign tumor that is considered fibrosis and hyaline change caused by degenerative changes of cavernous angioma, and changes in pathological features cause the changes in imaging features, making this atypical hemangioma easily misdiagnosed as primary or metastatic malignant tumor. Although there are many studies on the imaging findings of this disease, it is still difficult to diagnose and most patients underwent resection since it is misdiagnosed as malignant tumor. There is still a low rate of confirmed diagnosis before surgery. This article elaborates on the etiology, clinical manifestations and pathological features, imaging findings, diagnosis, and treatment of HSH, in order to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Hepatolithiasis is a common biliary tract disease in China and other Asian countries.It has insidious onset,recurrent disease,and may lead to biliary cirrhosis or even cancer in the late stage without inter-vention.At present,surgery is considered to be the best choice for treatment.In the 21st century of minimally inva-sive surgery,traditional procedures such as partial hepatectomy,choledochotomy,cholangioenterostomy and liver transplantation can be performed with the assistance of laparoscopy and da Vinci robots,and emerging endoscopic techniques such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)and percutaneous transhepatic cho-ledochoscopic lithotripsy(PTCSL)have also been developed,bringing better treatment for patients with hepatoli-thiasis.As treatment options are becoming more varied,there are also some clinical problems that need to be addressed.In this article,we would like to briefly review the current surgical treatment modalities in order to provide a theoretical basis for optimizing the treatment modalities.
