Abstract：

Objective To investigate the immunosuppressive effect of cytotoxic T Iymphocyte associated antigen 4 Ig fusion protein (CTLA4-Ig) in rat allograft hepatocyte transplantation model and the mechanisms. Methods Acute liver failure (ALF) model was established by intraperitoneal injection of 10% D-gal solution to SD rates. Collagenase perfusion was performed on SD rats to separate liver cells. SD rats with ALF were subjected to intrasplenic hepatocyte transplantation and randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group received intraperitoneal injection of CTLA4-Ig. The concentrations of interleukin (IL)-2 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF), liver function and histologicy were observed at the 1st,3rd, 5th, 7th day after operation and the T lymphocyte subsets were detected by using immunohistochemistry at the 7th day after operation. Results The levels of ALT and TBil were respectively (6. 5 ±7.3) IU/ml and (5.1 ± 1.6) mmol/L at the 7th day after operation and significantly decreased after injection of CTLA4-Ig ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). IL-2 concentration in the experimental group was ( 1.3138 ± 0. 8508 ) ng/L at the 7th day after operation and significantly decreased (P ＜0. 05). TNF had no significant difference between two groups after operation ( P ＞ 0. 05 ). T lymphocyte subsets, mainly CD4 + , in the experimental group was significantly decreased as compared with control group ( P ＜ 0. 05 ), so did the CD4 +/CD8 +. Histological changes: At the 7th day after operation, there were some hepatocytes in the spleen of the experimental group. But in the control group, the changes in the spleen were characterized by severe lymphocyte infiltration. There were no hepatocytes both groups. Conclusion CTLA4-Ig can induce rat allogeneic hepatocytes intrasplenic transplantation immune tolerance. It may improve the liver function of rats with ALF.CTLA4-Ig can decrease T lymphocyte subsets, mainly CD4 + and concentrations of IL-2.

Abstract：

Objective To investigate the effects of ischemia reperfusion injury before partial hepatectomy on liver regeneration in rats. Methods Seventy-five male healthy SD rats were randomly classified into 5 groups: group control, in which rats were only subjected to 70% hepatectomy; group I10R30, 70% liver hepatectomy after 10 min of ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion in the resected liver; By analogy, group I60R30, group I90R30 and group I90R60 were constructed. At 6th, 12th and 24th h after operation, RLW was determined; serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) activities were measured by using autoanalyzer; the levels of serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were determined by ELISA and the expression level of Ki-67 was detected by using immunohistochemical methods in the residual liver tissues. Results At 12th h after partial hepatectomy, the rate of RLW in group I60R30, group I90R30 and group I90R60 was (1.80±0.03)%, (1.82±0.10)%, (1.87±0.05)% respectively; the rate of Ki-67 was (58.35±2.18)%, (59.73±3.06)%, (62.65±2.24)% respectively, which was significantly higher than that in the group control (P<0.05). The levels of ALT and AST in rats with ischemia reperfusion injury were higher than in the group control (P<0.05). At 6th h and 12th h after operation, the expression levels of TNF-α in groups I60R30, I90R30 and I90R60 were significantly higher than those in the group control (P<0.05). Conclusion Ischemia reperfusion injury in the resected liver before partial hepatectomy could improve liver regeneration of the remnant liver in rats. The high expression of induced TNF-α may be one of the reasons.     

脾切除对肝纤维化大鼠肝脏PDGF-B表达及血清PDGF-BB水平的影响

Objective To explore the effects of splenectomy on hepatic fibrosis and on the expression of PDGF-B in the liver and PDGF-BB in the serum of rats with hepatic fibrosis. Methods By hypodermic injection CCl4, we established 65 rat models with hepatic fibrosis, splenectomies were performed in the three groups at different phases: before hypodermic injection CCl4 (A group), five weeks after hypodermic injection CCl4 (B group), and ten weeks hypodermic injection CCl4 (C group). The control groups were established at the same time, with samples of the livers and serum of the rats taken in different phases. The expressions of PDGF in the liver were detected by immunohistochemistry technique and the degree of hepatic fibrosis was detected by HE staining. The serum levels of PDGF-BB were analyzed by ELISA technique. Results Absorbance values of PDGF-B in the experimental group were significantly lower than the control groups (P＜0. 05). Serum levels of PDGF-BB of the rats after splenectomy were significantly lower than those in the control groups (P＜0.05). HE and Masson's staining showed that the progression of Hepatic fibrosis was slow in the A group. Hepatic pathologic state was significantly relieved in the B group and the inflammation and fibrosis was relieved in the C group. Conclusion Earlier period splenectomy could delay the proceeding of experimental hepatic fibrosis. After splenectomy the decline in the level of PDGF may be one of the mechanisms causing the delay.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-paracrine substance on fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) rat, and to study the effect on liver function and hepatocyte proliferation. Methods Mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)were separated from human umbilical cord, and surface makers of cells were detected by flow cytometry. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells-conditioned medium(MSC-CM) was prepared. FHF rat model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of D-galactosamine and they were randomly diveded into three groups: MSC-CM group, NS group, PHGF group. 24 h later, 1 ml MSC-CM, 1 ml 0. 9% NaCl solution and lml PHGF solution was injected into the tail vein of MSC-CM, NS, and PHGF rats, respectively. In each group (n=8 per group), blood samples were collected at 12, 24, 36, and 60 h after treatment from inner canthus for analysis of blood ALT and TBIL levels. We used five rats per group for tissue collection after sacrifice at 36 h after treatment and 10 animals per group for survival analysis. PCNA immunohistochemical staining was used in the sections of liver tissue to detect hepatocyte proliferation. Results 24 h after treatment, the levels of ALT and TBIL in the MSC-CM and PHGF groups were lower than those in the NS group(P＜0. 05), but there was no significant difference between the MSC-CM and PHGF groups. There were more PCNA-positive hepatocytes in the MSC-CM and PHGF groups than in the NS group(P＜0.01), but there was no significant difference between MSC-CM and PHGF group. Survival analysis found that the survival rate of rats in the MSC-CM and PHGF groups was higher than that of rats in the NS group (P=0. 049), but there was no significant difference between the MSC-CM and PHGF group. Conclusions The paracrine substance of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can stimulate hepatocyte proliferation and improve liver function of FHF rats, potentially creating a new avenue for the treatment of FHF.

Abstract：

Objective To. investigate the effect of electroacupuncture at acupoint Zusanli (ST36) on the liver injury during the early stage after bum in rats. Methods Forty adult male SD rats weighing 220-250 g were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 8 each) : group sham operation (group Ⅰ ) ; group burn (group Ⅱ ) ; group acupoint at Zusanli (ST36) (group Ⅲ ); group non-acupoint stimulation (group Ⅳ ) and group ST36 + alphabungarotoxin (alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist) (group Ⅴ ). Rats were subjected to 3rd degree burn covering 30% of the total body surface area. Rats were resuscitated with lactataed Ringer's solution according to Parkland formula (4 ml/kg per 1% body surface area) immediately after burn. Bilateral acupoints Zusanli were stimulated with constant voltage (3 V, 3 Hz,2ms) for 20 min 3 times a day for 2 days starting immediately after resuscitation in H and V groups. In group V alpha-bungarotoxin 1.0 μg/kg was administered iv immediately after fluid resuscitation before acupuncture. In group Ⅳ same electric stimulation was performed at a point 0.5 cm lateral to Zusanli. The animals were sacrificed at 48 h after burn. The content and expression of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein in liver were measured. Liver specimens were obtained for microscopic examination (with light and electronic microscope). Results Compared with group Ⅰ , hepatic HMGB1 protein level significantly increased in Ⅱ and Ⅳ groups. There were significant ultrastructural changes in the liver in burn rats in group Ⅱ and group Ⅳ. Electric stimulation of ST36 significantly attenuated the histologic changes in the liver and decreased the hepatic HMGB1 protein level in group Ⅲ . Pretreatment with specific alpha.7 nicotinie acetylcholine receptor antagonist alpha-bungarotoxin reversed the beneficial effect of electroacupuncture at Zusanli. Conclusion Electric stimulation of acupoint ST36 can ameliorate liver injury during the early stage of burn by activating alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor-mediated pathways for anti-inflammation.

免疫隔离技术在异种肝细胞移植中的应用

目的探讨微囊化猪肝细胞腹腔内移植对药物性肝衰大鼠的治疗作用，观察移植大鼠存活率、肝功能的变化。方法以海藻酸钠体外包裹经胶原酶灌注法分离的乳猪肝细胞，以SD大鼠为受体，D-氨基半乳糖腹腔内注射诱导大鼠急性肝衰竭，48h后将微囊化的猪肝细胞移植于大鼠腹腔内，观察移植大鼠存活率、绘制生存曲线，并测定肝功能的变化。结果腹腔内肝细胞移植可显著改善大鼠肝功能，转氨酶及胆红素均较对照组明显下降（P〈0．05）。与裸肝细胞移植组相比．微囊化肝细胞移植组1周存活率（78．6％ vs 66．7％）及2周存活率（42．9％ vs 25．0％）均显著提高（P〈0．01）。结论对异种肝细胞经微囊化处理后移植治疗急性肝衰大鼠，可给予肝功能代谢支持，提高移植治疗效果。     

Transplantation of human hepatocytes cultured with deleted variant of hepatocyte growth factor prolongs the survival of mice with acute liver failure

BACKGROUND: Considering the scarcity of donor livers, it is extremely important to establish a functional culture method for isolated hepatocytes. As a tool for maintaining hepatocyte functions in vitro, dHGF, a variant of HGF (hepatocyte growth factor) with a deletion of five amino acids, attracted our attention because it is less cytotoxic compared with HGF. METHODS: We evaluated growth, albumin production, metabolizing abilities of ammonia, lidocaine, and diazepam of human hepatocytes in the presence of dHGF (10-1000 ng/ml). The gene expression of liver markers was comparatively analyzed. The effect of intrasplenic transplantation of dHGF-treated human hepatocytes into severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice was evaluated in an acute liver failure (ALF) model induced by D-galactosamine (D-gal). RESULTS: When 100 ng/ml of dHGF was utilized, metabolism rates of ammonia, lidocaine, and diazepam and albumin production per unit cell significantly increased. The gene expression analysis demonstrated the enhanced expression of albumin, HNF-4alpha, and C/EBPalpha in the hepatocytes treated with 100 ng/ml of dHGF. Transplantation of such hepatocytes prolonged the survival of the SCID mice with ALF induced by D-gal. CONCLUSIONS: The present work clearly demonstrates the usefulness of dHGF (100 ng/ml) for maintaining the differentiated functions of human hepatocytes in tissue culture.
