Background: Alcohol is a significant risk factor for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To date, no rodent model has demonstrated the formation of hepatic neoplasia in the setting of chronic alcohol consumption alone. Methods: We investigated whether rats selectively bred for high alcohol preference (P rats), allowed free access to water, or water and 10% (v/v) alcohol, for 6, 12, or 18 months, develop hepatic neoplasia. Results: At necropsy, liver tumor incidence and multiplicity were significantly increased in 18‐month alcohol‐consuming versus water‐consuming P rats. These data were confirmed histologically by glutathione‐S‐transferase pi‐class (GSTp) staining. Phosphorylated mitogen‐activated protein kinase/extracellular signal‐regulated kinase 1/2 (MAPK/ERK) staining was also increased in the sinusoidal lining cells within livers of alcohol‐consuming versus water only P rats. In addition, cytochrome p450IIE1 (CYP2E1) mRNA, protein expression/activity, and intrahepatic oxidative stress were significantly increased in alcohol‐consuming P rat livers versus water only. In contrast, acetaldehyde dehydrogenase expression decreased in alcohol‐consuming versus water only P rats. No significant difference in alcohol dehydrogenase expression was detected. Conclusions: These data demonstrate that chronic alcohol consumption is associated with hepatic neoplasia, MAPK/ERK activation, increased CYP2E1 activity, and intrahepatic oxidative stress in P rats. As these rats are well characterized as a model of alcoholism, these findings identify a novel rodent model of alcohol or “alcoholism”‐induced liver neoplasia. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to compare helical CT (with reformation of coronal images from the axial data set) with conventional direct axial and coronal CT of the temporal bones. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Nineteen patients underwent both conventional 1-mm direct axial and coronal CT and helical 0.5-mm axial CT. The helical data set was reconstructed at 0.2-mm increments, and axial and coronal images were reconstructed in a plane similar to that of the conventional study, with a slice width of 0.5 mm and 0.5-mm increments. Forty small structures were evaluated independently by three observers, who were unaware of the method of imaging. Observers graded the 40 structures using a modified Likert scale. The graded differences between the two techniques were evaluated using a paired t test. Correlation between observers' gradings was evaluated using analysis of variance. RESULTS: The helical CT technique scored significantly higher than the conventional technique for many individual structures and groups of structures (scutum [p = .041], stapes footplate [p = .006], stapes crura [p = .004], oval window [p = .026], crista falciformis [p = .006], whole temporal bone [P = .012], middle ear [p = .033], inner ear [p = .021], ossicles [p = .044], and stapes [p = .010]). The correlation coefficient among observers was .91 for the whole temporal bone. CONCLUSION: Helical CT using 0.5-mm technique and reconstruction produces diagnostic images comparable with or superior to conventional 1-mm technique because helical CT can obtain thinner slices. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to define the CT criteria for blind pouches formed after enteric anastomosis. CONCLUSION: Familiarity with the CT appearance of blind pouches avoids the mistaking of these entities for bowel obstruction or abscesses. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The inflammatory subtype of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, is becoming one of the most important causes of chronic liver disease. In this article, we discuss the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and clinical and radiologic diagnosis of the subtypes of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. CONCLUSION: We discuss the current and evolving imaging tests in the evaluation of hepatic fatty content, inflammation, and fibrosis. 相似文献

Bi-phenotypic neoplasm refers to tumors derived from a common cancer stem cell with unique capability to differentiate histologically into two distinct tumor types. Bi-phenotypic hepatocellular carcinoma-cholangiocarcinoma (HCC-CC), although a rare tumor, is important for clinicians to recognize, since treatment options targeting both elements of the tumor are crucial. Imaging findings of bi-phenotypic HCC-CC are not specific and include features of both HCC and CC. A combination of imaging and immuno-histochemical analysis is usually needed to make the diagnosis. 相似文献

Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome are at risk of developing opportunistic infections and aggressive tumors.
Computed tomographic examination is the usual method of evaluating the abdomen and pelvis in these patients. Although this
technique is reasonably sensitive in detecting pathology, findings are often nonspecific. A case of hepatic peliosis (bacillary
angiomatosis) in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome is presented. 相似文献
