Study of nerve regeneration in centrocentral anastomosis

Summary Nerve regeneration was studied in a model of centrocentral anastomosis (CCA) performed on the sciatic nerve of the rat. Experimental CCA was made by suturing the proximal end of the peroneal branch on the proximal end of the sural branch, placing between them a peroneal nerve graft (Group I, 20 rats) or a silicone chamber (Group II, 12 rats). Nerve grafts had a length of 5mm and silicone chambers 7 mm. In six silicone chambers an 1 mm nerve graft was placed in the centre of the tube. In group I animals anterograde degeneration was studied by cutting the graft 60 days after surgery. In group II, nerve regeneration was studied 2, 4 and 8 weeks after surgery. Results indicate that in CCA: 1) regenerated axons coming from one nerve end grow into the graft but do not cross the contralateral suture line; 2) regeneration is poorer in silicone chambers than in nerve grafts; and, 3) in silicone chambers regeneration is related to time. The reduction in the regenerative capability in CCA seems to be related to the alteration of nerve sprouts aiming for the peripheral targets.     

Comparative effects of plateletderived growth factor-BB and insulin-like growth factor-I, individually and in combination, on periodontal regeneration in Macaca fascicularis

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) in combination have previously been shown to enhance periodontal regeneration. The objective of this study was to further characterize the biological effects of this combination of growth factors in non-human primates and compare the effects to those of each growth factor individually. Ligature-induced periodontitis was initiated in 10 cynomolgus monkeys. After periodontal lesions were established, surgery was performed, and either a methylcellulose gel vehicle or vehicle containing 10 μg each of either PDGF-BB, IGF-I or both PDGF-BB and IGF-I was applied to exposed root surfaces. Biopsies were taken 4 and 12 wk after treatment and the extent of periodontal regeneration was assessed by histomorphometry. At both 4 and 12 wk vehicle-treated lesions generally revealed minimal osseous defect fill (ODF) (8.5±2.1% and 14.5±5.7%, respectively) and new attachment (NA) (34.1±5.2% and 26.6±10.5%, respectively). IGF-I treatment did not significantly alter healing compared to vehicle in any parameter at both 4 and 12 wk. PDGFBB-treated sites exhibited significant (p<0.05) regeneration of NA (69.6±12.0%) at 12 wk; trends for PDGF-BB treatment effect were also observed in other parameters at 4 and 12 wk. although these increases were not statistically significant. Treatment with PDGF-BB/IGF-I resulted in 21.6±5.1 % and 42.5±8.3% ODF at 4 and 12 wk, respectively, and 64.1±7.7% and 74.6±7.4% NA at 4 and 12 wk, respectively (all significantly greater than vehicle, p<0.05). The results from this study demonstrated that: 1) IGF-1 alone at the dose tested did not significantly alter periodontal wound healing; 2) PDGF-BB alone significantly stimulated NA, with trends of effect on other parameters; and 3) the PDGF-BB/IGF-I combination resulted in significant increases in NA and ODF above vehicle at both 4 and 12 wk.

Treatment of hepatitis B and C after liver transplantation. Part 2, hepatitis C

Abstract End-stage liver disease caused by the hepatitis C virus is a major indication for liver transplantation. However, recurrence of hepatitis in the graft is a major issue. HCV re-infection after transplantation is almost constant, and recent data confirm that it significantly impairs patient and graft survival. Factors that may influence disease severity and consequent progression of HCV graft injury remain unclear. Chronic HCV infection develops in 60%–80% of patients, and 6%–28% ultimately progress to cirrhosis within 5 years. Pre-transplantation antiviral treatment is not easily related to poor tolerance. Attempts to administer prophylactic post-transplantation antiviral treatment are under evaluation but are limited by antiviral drug side effects. Treatment of established graft lesions with interferon or ribavirin as single agents has been disappointing. Combination therapy gave promising results, with sustained virological response in 25% of patients, but indications, modality and duration of treatment should be assessed.

原发性肝癌患者肝切除术前、后免疫细胞表型分析

目的研究原发性肝癌(PrimaryLiverCarcinoma,PLC)患者肝切除术前、后免疫细胞表型的变化。方法采用直接免疫荧光标记,流量血细胞计数法(FlowCytometry,FCM)检测方法,动态观察120例PLC患者肝切除术前后外周血T淋巴细胞亚群、NK细胞和HLA鄄DR含量变化。结果肝切除术前肝功能Child鄄PughB级、OGTTL型和术前施行肝动脉栓塞化疗患者外周血CD8+T细胞含量明显低于正常人组,CD4+/CD8+比值则较高(P<0郾05)。全部肝癌患者肝切除术前、后CD3+CD4+T细胞和NK细胞(CD3-CD16+CD56+)含量无明显差异。术后第1天、第3天、第7天和第2周外周血淋巴细胞CD3+CD8+含量明显低于肝切除术前和术后第3周(P<0.01);而CD4+/CD8+比值则显著高于肝切除术前和术后第3周(P<0郾01)。结论PLC合并肝硬变肝储备功能不足、术前肝动脉栓塞化疗和肝切除术可导致机体细胞免疫功能低下,PLC患者肝切除术前行肝动脉栓塞化疗的价值有待深入研究。

不同分级肝硬化患者血清甲状腺素水平的意义

目的探讨肝硬化患者血清中甲状腺素水平的变化与肝硬化病变程度及其临床实验室检查之间的相关性。方法用放免法测定肝硬化患者血清FT3、FT4、PC-Ⅲ、Ⅳ-C、LN及HA，并按Child—Pugh方法将肝功能分为A、B、C三级。结果随着肝硬化病变程度的加重，血清肝纤维化指标逐渐增高，甲状腺素呈下降趋势，同时血清甲状腺素水平与肝硬化的低蛋白血症、腹水及凝血酶原时间密切相关。结论肝硬化患者体内存在不同程度的甲状腺素水平紊乱，紊乱程度与肝功能受损程度有明显相关性，联合检测血清FT3、FT4、PC-Ⅲ、Ⅳ—C、LN及HA对估计肝硬化病变程度及判断预后有十分重要的临床价值。
