Objective:To investigate the effect of laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection (LSD) on liver synthesis and development of liver cirrhosis.Methods:This is a prospective case series study.The clinical data of liver cirrhotic patients with portal hypertension who received LSD at the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of Northern Jiangsu People′s Hospital Affiliated to Yangzhou University from September 2014 to January 2016 were included. This study analyzed the diameter of the portal vein, the velocity of portal blood flow, the routine blood parameters, the liver function, the synthetic proteins of liver (antithrombin Ⅲ (AT-Ⅲ), protein S, protein C), and the serum content of liver fibrotic markers(collagen type Ⅳ, procollagen type Ⅲ, laminin, hyaluronidase). Repeated measures ANOVA was used for comparison between multiple groups, and least significance difference was used for post-hoc multiple comparison.Results:A total of 106 patients were included in the study, including 70 males and 36 females, aged (51.8±9.8) years(range: 28 to 75 years).Compared with the preoperative results, the diameter of portal vein and the velocity of portal vein decreased after surgery ( F=14.03, 12.15, respectively, both P<0.01). Compared with the preoperative results, the total bilirubin, albumin, prothrombin time, international normalized ratio, Child-Pugh score and classification were improved ( F=17.96, 56.01, 66.63, 35.83, 33.49, and 27.50, respectively, all P<0.01), and the AT-Ⅲ, protein S, protein C,collagen type Ⅳ, procollagen type Ⅲ, laminin and hyaluronidase levels were also improved ( F=47.87, 36.26, 18.02, 2.79, 14.58, 44.35, and 14.38, respectively, all P<0.01). Compared with the preoperative period, the diameter of portal vein was reduced from the first week to the 24 th month after surgery ( t=5.45 to 9.39, all P<0.01). Compared with the preoperative period, the velocity of portal vein blood from the first week after surgery to the 24 th month after surgery was decreased ( t=4.02 to 8.43, all P<0.01). Compared with the preoperative period, routine blood parameters (white blood count, hemoglobin, platelet count), liver function (total bilirubin, albumin, prothrombin time, international normalized ratio, Child-Pugh score), liver synthetic protein (AT-Ⅲ, protein S, protein C) and liver fibrotic markers (collagen type Ⅳ, procollagen type Ⅲ, laminin, hyaluronidase) were improved to varying degrees at the 24th month after surgery ( t=-20.46 to 11.93, all P<0.01). Conclusion:Preliminary findings show that LSD can reduce portal vein pressure, restore blood cell number, and improve liver synthesis function and the degree of liver fibrosis in patients with portal hypertension in liver cirrhosis.

Objective:To investigate the expression, prognosis, and role of G protein-coupled receptor kinase-interacting protein 1 (GIT1) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tumor micro environments.Methods:Clinical data of 140 cases who underwent complete HCC surgical resection from January 2015 to December 2021 in Subei People's Hospital affiliated to Yangzhou University, Jiangsu Province, were included. Tumor tissue and adjacent tissue samples were collected for immunohistochemical analysis. The patients were divided into a high expression group and a low expression group according to the expression of GIT1. Cox regression was used to analyze the risk factors for prognosis in patients with HCC. Fifteen pairs of cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were randomly matched for quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), western blot (WB), and immunohistochemical analysis. GITI knockout or overexpression cell lines of human hepatoma cell lines HepG2, HuH7 and MHCC97-H, and mouse hepatoma cell line Hepa 1-6 were constructed. The effects on M2 macrophage polarization were analyzed by flow cytometry. A mice tumor model was constructed. The growth curve of tumor tissue overexpressing GIT1 was plotted. Bioinformatics analysis of the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data was performed using OncoLnc, Kaplan-Meier Plotter, UALCAN, and GEPIA databases to explore the differential expression of GIT1 in HCC patients and its effect on prognosis.Results:Bioinformatics analysis showed that the expression level of GIT1 was significantly higher in HCC tissues than in normal liver tissues ( P<0.05). RT-PCR and WB experiments showed that GIT1 was highly expressed in HCC. The follow-up results showed that high expression of GIT1 was associated with poor prognosis in patients with HCC. The high expression of GIT1 was an independent risk factor for the prognosis in patients with HCC ( HR=2.562, 95% CI: 0.231-0.704, P<0.05). Functional enrichment analysis combined with TIMER database analysis found that GIT1 expression level was associated with multiple immune cell infiltrations in HCC, but the correlation coefficient with macrophage infiltration was the highest ( r=0.545, P<0.001). Mice tumorigenesis experiments showed that the tumor volume of GIT1-overexpressing mice was significantly increased ( P<0.05). Additionally, flow cytometry indicated that after GIT1 overexpression, there was a low degree of M1 infiltration/polarization (wild type: 5.06%±0.11%, overexpression type: 4.09%±0.04%; P<0.05) and a high degree of M2 infiltration/polarization (wild type: 10.20%±0.33%, overexpression type: 14.7%±0.12%; P<0.05). Conclusion:GIT1 serves as a prognostic biomarker in HCC, promoting tumor progression through its high expression and enhances M2 macrophage infiltration.
