According our practice of raical pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancretic head carcinoma and combined with these reviews, we suggested the active and palliative pancreaticoduodenectomy should be aviod. Skeletonization of hepatoduodenal ligament and the retroperitoneal resection should be the routine procedure in pancreticoduodenectomy, and at least invovle two regional lymph nodes. In addition, regardless of the metastase of No 13 lymph node, ristricted retroperitoneal resection for resectable pancretic carcinoma was needed. Exposured the superior mesenteric artery and distinguished inferior of uncinate process of pancrease with the artery, were the key point of the uncinate process of pancrease resection. Preoperative evaluation of angiography and other images, the ratio of activeness and combination with vessel resection would be improved. The style of pancreaticojejunostomy could be selected by the experience of the operator, we are apt to the double-deck invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy. Additionally, utilization of the electronic surgical workstation, should be careful and also need to accumulate more experience.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of colonoscopic metal stenting and ileus tube catheteriza-tion on left colorectal cancer with acute obstruction. Methods Clinical data of 80 patients meeting the diagnostic criteria for acute obstruction of the left half of colorectal cancer were included in this study. Patients were randomly divided into met-al stent group (n=40) and ileus tube group (n=40). The metal stent group was treated by metal stent and the ileus tube group was treated by ileus tube. Both were carried on by colonoscopy and X-line. After the relief of obstruction ( 7-10 d), patients were underwent colorectal cancer radical resection and anastomosis. The technical operations, improvement of obstruction and the efficacy of surgical treatment were compared between two groups. Results The success rate was 87.5%in metal stent group and the 97.5%in ileus tube group. There was no significant difference in the success rate between two groups (P>0.05). No complications were found in two groups. The operation time and the treatment cost were higher in metal stent group than those in ileus tube group. The relief rates of obstruction were 100%and 95%for metal stent group and ileus tube group, and there was no difference between them. Two cases were operated for emergency because of the failure of obstruc-tion relief. The relief time of obstruction and the difference between C-reactive protein values were much better in metal stent group than those of ileus tube group. After the obstruction relief, patients underwent a radical resection of the tumor and anastomosis, no anastomotic leakage was found in two groups. There were no significant differences in the operation time, in-cision infection and hospitalization time between two groups. Conclusion Anal ileus tube catheterization has a better eco-nomic value in the treatment of acute obstruction, but the efficacy of metal stent is better.

Objective To investigate whether porcine endothelial cells transfected with SP1 de-coy ODNs could resist complement-mediated cytotoxicity during the model of SV-40-PED with human serum in vitro. Methods Immortalized porcine aortic endothelial cells of the line PED were divided in-to three groups. The transfected group was SV-40-PED with SP1 decoy ODNs. The mismatched group was SV-40-PED with scrambled SP1 decoy ODNs. The negative group was cells with oligo-fectamine only. The expression of α1,3-GT mRNA and αGal was detected after 26 h by using fluores-cence microscope, Western blot, RT-PCR and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity assay. Results Fluorescence microscopy observed the decreased fluorescence of αGal after SP1 decoy ODNs transfec-tion. Dotted fluorescent decrease could be observed on some membrane while the mismatched group and negative group with bright green fluorescence. Western blot showed that the average absorbance of the PED cells transfected with decoy ODNs was decreased to 52.6% of the negative group (P<0.05). The expression of α1,3-GT mRNA in the PED cells transfected with decoy ODNs was 0.42±0.20 (isoform 1) and 0.27±0.12 (isoform 2) respectively, significantly lower than in the negative group (isoform 1, 0.72±0.17; isoform 2, 0.50±0.19; both P<0.05). The expression of α1, 3-G Tin the mismatch group was not different from that in the negative group (P>0.05). 20% normal hu-man serum (NHS) and 40 % NHS had cytotoxic effect on both mismatch and negative groups, but de-coy ODNs could confer SV-40-PED protection from the cytolysis effect (P<0.05), which made a re-markable reduction of complement-mediated cytotoxicity towards SV-40--PED. Conclusions SP1 decoy ODNs could confer porcine endothelial cells protection from complement-mediated cytotoxicity effect in vitro.

Objective To investigate whether porcine Sertoli cells eould resist xenoreactive antibodies mediated complement lysis. Methods Sertoli cells were isolated from testes of 10 to 15 day-old landrace pigs. Α-Gal expression on Sertoli cells was measured by FACS and cytoimmunofluorescence. The binding of human se-rum IgG and IgM with Sertoli cells was assayed by FACS. After the incubation of the cultured Sertoli cells with 20% human B serum in vitro, the cellular lysis and cytotoxicity assay were detected with CytoTox-ONETM homogeneous membrane integrity assay and MTT method, and then activation of the complement cascade was examined by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. The SV40-porcine endothelium cells line (SV40-PED) was served as control cells. Results α-Gal expression was found on Sertoli cells by FACS and cytoimmunofluorescence. After incubation with 20% human serum, cellular lysis ratio of the SV40-PED was 53. 13% ± 14.53%, while lysis ratio of the Sertoli cells was significantly lower (24.38% ±0.50%, P<0.01), the viability of Sertoli cells and SV40-PED were 98.73% ± 18.84% and 52.43% ± 8.08%, respectively. With immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence, C3c and C4d were found binding on both the Sertoli cells and SV40-PED cells, however, C5b-9 was only detected on SV40-PED cells. Conclusion In vitro, compared with the SV40-PED, Sertoli cells could resist xenoreactive antibodies of human serum mediated complement lysis by preventing the C5b-9 formation.

Objective To establish the method for isolation and culture of porcine Sertoli cell sand detect the expression of the immune privilege-related molecules in the cultured cells. MethodsTestes were aseptically removed from the 10-to 15-days old Large White piglets. Testes were decap-sulated, minced and then digested with 0.2% (W/V) collagenase type V, 0.25% (W/V) trypsin and 0.05% (W/V) DNaseI. In the primary isolation, Sertoli cells were cultured at 37℃with 5% CO2.Inverted phase contrast microscopy and HE staining were used to observe the morphology of Sertoliceils, and the Sertoli cells were identified under an electron microscope. Viability and apoptosis ofcultured cells were measured with the AnnexinV-PI staining by flow cytometry. The expression of sox9, FasL, TGF-β and clusterin in Sertoli cells was detected by RT-PCR. The viability of long-termcultured Sertoli cells was assayed by MTT. Results In the cultured total cells, Sertoli cells accountedfor more than 90%. The apoptosis rate and mortality of Sertoli cells was (2.61±0.96)% and (2.12±0.74)% respectively. RT-PCR revealed that the expression of sox9, TGF-β and clusterin in theSertoli cells was strongly positive, but FasL was weakly positive. Viability of cultured cells measuredby MTT conformed that the sertloli cells could survive more than 21 days. Conclusion The isolationand culture methods of the neonatal porcine Sertoli cells was established. Under the culturedconditions, the Sertoli cells can express the immune privilege molecules and successfully survive at least 21 days.
