目的 探寻肝移植大鼠肝窦内皮细胞(SEC)损伤的详细过程、方式及机制,为冷保存再灌注损伤的保护研究开辟新的途径.方法 雄性SD大鼠随机分为假手术组(n=6)、UW 1 h肝移植组(n:48)、Uw 12 h肝移植组(n=48).大鼠原位肝移植采用双袖套法,分别于术后不同时相点采取血液及组织标本,检测血清丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)及透明质酸(HA)水平;HE染色观察肝脏病理学变化;TUNEL法检测凋亡,免疫组化法检测Bcl-2及Cleaved Caspase-3的表达状况.结果 UW 1 h、UW 12 h组肝移植后血清ALT、HA均较假手术组明显升高(P<0.05),UW 12 h组又明显高于Uw 1 h组(P<0.05).UW 12 h组ALT水平于术后6 h达高峰,而HA水平却在术后1 h、24 h呈双峰表现.Uw 12 h组首先出现SEC的凋亡继而出现肝细胞的坏死,且UW 12 h组细胞凋亡指数(apoptosis index,AI)明显高于UW 1 h组(P<0.01).两组大鼠SEC的AI均于术后6 h达高峰,与血中ALT的高峰时相点一致.肝移植术后Bcl-2表达明显减弱(P相似文献   

大鼠肝移植术后早期肝脏损害与Ref-1蛋白的表达

目的 观察大鼠肝移植术后早期肝组织内氧化还原因子1(redox factor-1,Ref-1)蛋白表达与肝脏损伤的关系.方法 将150只Wistar大鼠动物分为三个组,肝移植组、假手术组和空白对照组.分别于肝移植术后3、6、9、12、24 h取材,采用免疫组织化学方法检测移植后各时间肝组织Ref-1蛋白表达,同时通过血清生化指标、组织病理学分析研究Ref-1蛋白表达的意义.结果 血清学检查显示,肝移植术后3 h AST、ALT显著升高,术后6 h降低.病理学分析显示:术后24 h内,部分肝组织结构不清,肝细胞变性,肝窦扩张充血,炎细胞明显浸润.肝损伤较重.免疫组化检测显示,肝移植后早期肝实质细胞内Refl蛋白增高.9h达高峰,以后逐渐下降.结论 肝移植术后发生肝损伤以术后6 h为最重,之后损伤程度逐渐减轻,这是由于移植术后缺血再灌注损伤,激活Ref-1的表达明显增加,修复了由于缺血再灌注损伤导致的细胞凋亡.

Apoptosis and regeneration of sinusoidal endothelial cells after extended cold preservation and transplantation of rat liver

BACKGROUND: Sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs) are particularly susceptible to cold ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. We have examined the process of injury and recovery of graft after cold-preserved liver transplantation, with special focus on the proliferation of SECs and regulatory mechanisms involved. METHODS: Male SD rats were divided into two groups according to length of cold preservation time in University of Wisconsin [UW] solution of graft: UW1h group and UW12h group. Graft function, incidence of apoptosis, proliferation of SECs and the expression of related regulatory factors were assessed after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). RESULTS: SECs are more sensitive to apoptosis induced by cold I/R injury compared with hepatocytes. Using bromodeoxyuridine and rat endothelial cell antigen-1 double immunostaining assay, SECs exhibited a delayed proliferation in comparison with hepatocytes, reaching a peak at 72 hr in UW1h group and 96 hr in UW12h group, respectively. Vascular endothelial growth factor increased at 24 hr after reperfusion, and peaked at 72 hr in both groups. Flt-1 and flk-1 expression was found to be mainly limited to SECs, with a peak in expression occurring between 72 and 96 hr, which coincided with the peak in SEC proliferation in UW1h group. However, flt-1 was found to be reduced significantly at any time throughout the experiments in UW12h group compared to sham. CONCLUSION: The delayed recovery of rat liver after extended cold preservation and transplantation correlates with a retarded regeneration of SECs due to increased apoptosis and reduced expression of flt-1. These results suggest that SECs play an important role in cold-preserved liver transplantation.     

Fate of hepatocyte and sinusoidal lining cell function and kinetics after extended cold preservation and transplantation of the rat liver

We investigated the chronological profile of graft damage and recovery after liver cold ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, with particular attention to the role of apoptosis on hepatocyte and sinusoidal endothelial cell (SEC) damage. Male Lewis rats underwent rearterialized orthotopic liver transplantation using grafts subjected to a short (University of Wisconsin [UW] solution for 1 hour [UW1h]) and prolonged period (UW16h) of cold preservation. Experiments were performed immediately after preservation and 4 hours, 24 hours, 3 days, and 7 days after reperfusion. At each time, graft function, incidence of apoptotic cells, expression of the epitope recognized by a monoclonal antibody specific to rat SECs (SE-1), and incidence of proliferating cells were estimated. In the UW16h group, the proportion of apoptotic SECs was markedly elevated at 4 hours. The incidence of hepatocyte apoptosis was very low, although massive hepatocyte necrosis was evident at 24 hours. The incidence of proliferating hepatocytes and SECs peaked at 3 days, then returned to normal by 7 days. SE-1 expression was reduced immediately after preservation, followed by a marked reduction at 4 and 24 hours after reperfusion, and expression returned to normal by 7 days. Although SEC apoptosis was induced in the early phase of cold I/R injury, hepatocyte damage developed without the occurrence of apoptosis. Regeneration of both hepatocytes and SECs after cold I/R injury peaked at 3 days and was complete by 7 days, whereas functional recovery of these cell populations was complete 3 days after reperfusion.

Comparison of University of Wisconsin (UW) and Eurocollins (EC) preservation solutions in a rat liver transplant model

The Eurocollins (EC) and University of Wisconsin (UW) preservation solutions were compared in a rat liver transplant model. After hepatectomy, 48 rat livers were flushed with either EC or UW preservation solution and were randomly assigned to 1, 12, 24, and 30 h of preservation at 4°C, resulting in eight groups each containing six livers. Following preservation, orthotopic liver transplantation with reconstruction of the hepatic artery was performed. The efficacy of the preservation solution was assessed at 48 h post-transplantation by survival histological features and aspartate transaminase assay (AST) values. None of the rats survived 30 h of liver preservation with EC whereas five out of six rats did with UW preservation. After 24 h of liver preservation, three of the six rats in the EC group survived, compared to all six rats in the UW group. Histological evidence of severe ischemia was found in both groups in all but one survivor (UW, 24 h). After 12 h of EC preservation, one rat died within 48 h and severe ischemic changes were found in the remaining five rats. Among the rats with 12 h of UW preservation, only two out of six showed ischemic changes, and all six rats survived beyond 48 h. Without preservation (1 h), ischemic damage was found in two out of six rats in each group and all rats survived. The median AST values were higher in the EC groups than in the UW groups; the difference became significant after 12-h preservation (EC 900 IU/l versus UW 465 IU/l) and 24-h preservation (EC 5220 IU/l versus UW 631 IU/l). However, the median AST value in the five surviving rats whose livers had been preserved for 30 h in UW climbed to 1880 (950–2240) IU/l.. We conclude that UW solution provides better long-term preservation than EC solution. However, even with UW solution, the observed mortality, the severity of ischemic changes, and the pronounced increase in the median AST value cast doubt upon the safety of liver preservation beyond 24 h.     

HIV-1反式激活蛋白-血红素氧合酶-1融合蛋白对大鼠供肝冷保存期肝细胞凋亡的影响

Objective To study the effects of TAT-HO-1 fusion protein,HIV-1 transactiviting protein (TAT) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1),on hepatic cell apoptosis of rat donors in cold storage stage.Methods Forty-eight male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups.Rat livers were flushed and preserved with 4℃ HTK solution containing(group P) or uncontaining(group C) 50 mg/L of TAT-HO-1.The preserved solution and hepatic tissue were collected at 0,6,12,18 h of cold storage stage.TAT-HO-1 transducing into liver,alanine aminotransferase(ALT) level in preserved solution,hyaluronic acid(HA) level and the expression of caspase-3 in hepatic tissue,and the apoptotic index (AI) of hepatocytes and sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs) were measured or detected.Results ALT level in preserved solution,HA level and the expression of caspase-3 in hepatic tissue,and the AI of hepatocytes and SECs increased time-dependently in cold storage stage in both groups (P＜0.05),with lower increasing extent in group P than that in group C (P＜0.05) at 6h,12h and 18h of cold storage stage.A stronger accumulation of HO-1 staining was also detected at the same time-points in group P than that in group C(P＜0.05).Conclusion TAT-HO-1 may transduce efficiently into rat livers,exerting protective effects on both hepatocytes and SECs during cold storage stage.Protein transduction technology may be a novel therapeutic means to reduce donor liver injury in preservation period for transplantion.

Comparison of University of Wisconsin (UW) and Eurocollins (EC) preservation solutions in a rat liver transplant model

Abstract. The Eurocollins (EC) and University of Wisconsin (UW) preservation solutions were compared in a rat liver transplant model. After hepatectomy, 48 rat livers were flushed with either EC or UW preservation solution and were randomly assigned to 1, 12, 24, and 30 h of preservation at 4C, resulting in eight groups each containing six livers. Following preservation, orthotopic liver transplantation with reconstruction of the hepatic artery was performed. The efficacy of the preservation solution was assessed at 48 h post-transplantation by survival histological features and aspartate transaminase assay (AST) values. None of the rats survived 30 h of liver preservation with EC whereas five out of six rats did with UW preservation. After 24 h of liver preservation, three of the six rats in the EC group survived, compared to all six rats in the UW group. Histological evidence of severe ischemia was found in both groups in all but one survivor (UW, 24 h). After 12 h of EC preservation, one rat died within 48 h and severe ischemic changes were found in the remaining five rats. Among the rats with 12 h of UW preservation, only two out of six showed ischemic changes, and all six rats survived beyond 48 h. Without preservation (1 h), ischemic damage was found in two out of six rats in each group and all rats survived. The median AST values were higher in the EC groups than in the UW groups; the difference became significant after 12-h preservation (EC 900 IU/1 versus UW 465 IU/1) and 24-h preservation (EC 5220 IU/1 versus UW 631 IU/1). However, the median AST value in the five surviving rats whose livers had been preserved for 30 h in UW climbed to 1880 (950–2240) IU/1. We conclude that UW solution provides better long-term preservation than EC solution. However, even with UW solution, the observed mortality, the severity of ischemic changes, and the pronounced increase in the median AST value cast doubt upon the safety of liver preservation beyond 24 h.
