During the last three decades liver cell adenoma and liver cell adenomatosis have emerged as new clinical entities in hepato-logical practice due to the widespread use of oral contraceptives and increased imaging of the liver. On review of published series there is evidence that 10% of liver cell adenomas progress to hepatocellular carcinoma, diagnosis is best made by open or laparoscopic excision biopsy, and the preferred treatment modality is resection of the liver cell adenoma to prevent bleeding and malignant transformation. In liver cell adenomatosis, the association with oral contraceptive use is not as high as in solitary liver cell adenomas. The risk of malignant transformation is not increased compared with solitary liver cell adenomas. Treatment consists of close monitoring and imaging, resection of superficially located, large (>4 cm) or growing liver cell adenomas. Liver transplantation is the last resort in case of substantive concern about malignant transformation or for large, painful adenomas in liver cell adenomatosis after treatment attempts by liver resection. 相似文献

Red cell exchange transfusion is frequently of use in the management of patients with sickle cell disease either electively or therapeutically. Modern cell separators allow this procedure to be performed rapidly, effectively and safely. These machines have a number of advantages over manual exchange procedures. The patient remains isovolaemic, there is little loss of plasma or platelets, the procedure is relatively short and in elective circumstances can be performed on an outpatient basis. In this series 66 exchanges were performed on 21 patients with an overall increase in HbA of 70%. The COBE Spectra gave a mean increase in HbA of 77%, with the majority of patients achieving an HbA of > 90% post exchange. Automated redcell exchange was well tolerated by most patients, and adverse effects were limited to symptoms of hypocalcaemia which were easily treated, and to transfusion reactions. Cell separators can therefore be recommended for exchange transfusion in patients with sickle cell disease, who require an increase in HbA levels either prophylactically or therapeutically. They are safe, effective, easy and quick to use. 相似文献

Erythrocyte-endothelial cell adherence in sickle cell disorders 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2
Detachment of individual sickle erythrocytes from cultured endothelial cell monolayers has been evaluated by a fluid-shearing technique in an effort to quantitate adherence at shear forces that would be anticipated in the in vivo circulation. Nonirreversibly sickled cells (non-ISC) were more adherent at normal oxygen tensions than control cells. More than 1% non-ISC remained attached to the monolayer at forces greater than physiologic shear stresses in capillary and venous circulations, and many of the most avidly attached cells, once separated, immediately reattached to adjacent endothelial cells. These data suggest that hemoglobin S-containing erythrocytes may have a higher frequency of adherence in vivo in regions of low shear stress where prolonged erythrocyte-endothelial cell contact could occur. Some of these cells detached by shear force would subsequently reattach in in vivo conditions. Plasma-enhanced attachment frequency and plasma from blood in a case of sickle crisis caused further increase. These observations further support the concept that sickle erythrocyte- endothelial cell interaction may be a significant factor in initiation of vascular occlusive events in sickle cell disease. 相似文献

The formation of the branched actin networks is essential for cell polarity, but it remains unclear how the debranching activity of actin filaments contributes to this process. Here, we showed that an evolutionarily conserved coronin family protein, the Caenorhabditis elegans POD-1, debranched the Arp2/3-nucleated actin filaments in vitro. By fluorescence live imaging analysis of the endogenous POD-1 protein, we found that POD-1 colocalized with Arp2/3 at the leading edge of the migrating C. elegans neuroblasts. Conditional mutations of POD-1 in neuroblasts caused aberrant actin assembly, disrupted cell polarity, and impaired cell migration. In C. elegans one-cell−stage embryos, POD-1 and Arp2/3, moved together during cell polarity establishment, and inhibition of POD-1 blocked Arp2/3 motility and affected the polarized cortical flow, leading to symmetric segregation of cell fate determinants. Together, these results indicate that F-actin debranching organizes actin network and cell polarity in migrating neuroblasts and asymmetrically dividing embryos.Cell polarity is a fundamental feature of virtually all eukaryotic cells and plays crucial roles in a wide range of cellular processes, including cell motility, asymmetric cell division, and cell signaling (1). The establishment of cell polarity involves the asymmetric assembly of distinct cellular components to perform specialized functions. The actin-related protein (Arp) 2/3 complex-dependent branched actin networks and the pushing force they produce provide the principal means for cells to remodel the plasma membrane during cellular polarization (2). For example, in the leading edge of a migrating cell, the local Arp2/3-nucleated actin polymerization powers asymmetric projections of the plasma membrane (3). During asymmetric cell division of the Caenorhabditis elegans zygote, an actomyosin flow is central to the transport of the polarity PAR proteins into defined subcellular domains (4).Actin filaments'' continuous assembly must be balanced by actin depolymerization to ensure a constant supply of actin monomers for new growth. The Arp2/3 complex potency in actin nucleation empowers this complex as an essential regulator to organize the actin cytoskeleton. While Arp2/3 by itself is biochemically inactive, interactions with nucleation-promoting factors (NPFs) such as the Wiskott Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP)/WASP family verproline-homologous (WASP/WAVE) family proteins shift the Arp2/3 complex from its open, inactive conformation to a closed, active conformation (5, 6). The conformationally activated Arp2/3 complex then binds to the side of preexisting actin filaments to nucleate a branch from the mother filament (7–12). Conversely, nucleation by Arp2/3 can be inhibited by several binding partners, including glia maturation factor (GMF), Gadkin, Arpin, and Coronin, whose activities replenish available pools of actin monomers and Arp2/3 complexes for sustained actin assembly (13–18).The coronin family proteins are conserved actin regulators (19). The phylogenetic analysis grouped coronin genes into three types (19, 20). The best-characterized coronin is the Type I coronin (e.g., Coronin 1B) that binds to actin filaments through the β-propeller structure and to the Arp2/3 complex via its N terminus. These interactions block the docking of Arp2/3 onto actin filaments or facilitate debranching the existing actin network (20). Coronin 1B simultaneously interacts with the Slingshot phosphatase to dephosphorylate and activate ADF/Cofilin proteins that sever actin filaments, thereby promoting the actin network disassembly (13). Despite significant progress on Type I coronin, the activity and function of other coronins remain unclear. In particular, Type III coronins, known as POD-1 in C. elegans and Drosophila or Coronin7 in Dictyostelium and humans, contain two tandem coronin repeats, making them distinct from other coronins (19–21). POD-1 was biochemically isolated from C. elegans oocytes (22), and its mutations disrupted the polarity and architecture in early C. elegans embryos and impaired midlife touch sensitivity of the nematode (21, 23). However, it remains unclear how the Type III coronin functions. The Drosophila homolog of POD-1 is required for correct axon guidance, and the purified Dpod-1 cross-links the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons (24), whereas the mammalian Coronin7 was implicated in the Golgi morphology and function (25, 26), demonstrating the functional divergence of this family of coronin. Here, we show that the C. elegans POD-1 debranches Arp2/3-nucleated actin filaments in vitro and that POD-1 regulates cell polarity by remodeling the actin cytoskeleton during cell migration and asymmetric cell division. 相似文献

Alloimmunization to red cell antigens contributes to morbidity in transfused patients. It has been recommended that blood for sickle cell patients need not be matched for antigens other than ABO and Rh(D), as there is no greater incidence of antibody production than in other multitransfused patient populations. Post transfusion alloimmunization was studied in a group of 34 sickle cell disease patients attending a U.K. haemoglobinopathy clinic. Red cell antibodies were formed in 17.6% of the transfused patients and Rhesus and Kell antibodies accounted for 66% of this total. In order to reduce alloimmunization, a policy of performing extended red cell phenotyping on the patients, and providing blood matched for Kell, and in certain circumstances the Rhesus antigens other than Rh(D), is recommended. 相似文献

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) represents the most common histological subtype of malignant kidney tumors. Based on symptoms alone, clear cell RCC is indistinguishable from other histological classes of RCC unless the tumor is present in the context of an RCC syndrome. Histopathological examination is, therefore, important to accurately identify clear cell RCC. Clear cell RCCs have characteristic morphological criteria; these tumors can be easily identified upon typical presentation, but diagnosis can be challenging when tumor cell pattern is unusual or when availability of tissue samples is limited. In this Review, the clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics of clear cell RCCs are described, as well as the potential tumors that can be confused with clear cell RCC and need to be considered in the differential diagnoses. Finally, the importance of an accurate diagnosis is highlighted in the context of the increasing use of preoperative tissue sampling and the prevalence of clear cell tumors associated with hereditary syndromes, which could have different therapeutic and prognostic implications for patients and their families. 相似文献

The human red cell has a life span of 120 days. The mechanism that determines cell removal from the circulation with such precision remains unknown. Most studies of red cell aging have been based on analysis of cells of progressively increasing age separated by density. The relationship between red cell age and density has been recently challenged, and the hypothesis has been put forward that cell death is not the result of a progressive deterioration of essential cell constituents. This theory was based on preliminary observations in transient erythroblastopenia of childhood, which could not later be confirmed. When the relationship between cell aging and increasing density is critically reviewed, it appears to be based on firm experimental evidence, confirmed by in vivo demonstration of decreasing survival of cells of increasing age. Analysis of studies using buoyant density gradients reveals that this technique can easily distinguish the single exponential slope of decline for those cell components that change progressively throughout the red cell life span from the biphasic decline of those that decrease drastically at the reticulocyte-mature red cell transition. The view that the aging of the red cell and its removal from the circulation result from a progressive series of events during the 120 days of its life span appears to be the most consistent with the available data. Density separation, validated by much experimental evidence, remains a most useful technique for the study of the mechanism of aging of the red cell. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

We used multiple optical trapping to study the mechanism of red cell (dis)aggregation. Two sets of optical 'tweezers' were used to bring two red blood cells together to form a two-cell aggregate and then to pull them apart, to study the interaction between the cells.
We found that cross-bridging occurred in normal reversible aggregation as we observed binding and the occurrence of small tethers between opposite cell membranes. Furthermore, the cells could only be parted by sliding them side by side with a maximum velocity in the order of μm/s indicating accumulation of the cross-bridges. 相似文献

Background
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are regarded as the cause of tumor formation and recurrence. The isolation and identification of CSCs could help to develop novel therapeutic strategies specifically targeting CSCs.Methods
Human hepatoma cell lines were plated in stem cell conditioned culture system allowed for sphere forming. To evaluate the stemness characteristics of spheres, the self-renewal, proliferation, chemoresistance, tumorigenicity of the PLC/PRF/5 sphere-forming cells, and the expression levels of stem cell related proteins in the PLC/PRF/5 sphere-forming cells were assessed, comparing with the parental cells. The stem cell RT-PCR array was performed to further explore the biological properties of liver CSCs.Results
The PLC/PRF/5, MHCC97H and HepG2 cells could form clonal nonadherent 3-D spheres and be serially passaged. The PLC/PRF/5 sphere-forming cells possessed a key criteria that define CSCs: persistent self-renewal, extensive proliferation, drug resistance, overexpression of liver CSCs related proteins (Oct3/4, OV6, EpCAM, CD133 and CD44). Even 500 sphere-forming cells were able to form tumors in NOD/SCID mice, and the tumor initiating capability was not decreased when spheres were passaged. Besides, downstream proteins DTX1 and Ep300 of the CSL (CBF1 in humans, Suppressor of hairless in Drosophila and LAG1 in C. elegans) -independent Notch signaling pathway were highly expressed in the spheres, and a gamma-secretase inhibitor MRK003 could significantly inhibit the sphere formation ability.Conclusions
Nonadherent tumor spheres from hepatoma cell lines cultured in stem cell conditioned medium possess liver CSC properties, and the CSL-independent Notch signaling pathway may play a role in liver CSCs. 相似文献20.
