ABSTRACT
Circular RNA (circRNA) is a type of functional RNA characterized by a covalently closed continuous loop. CircRNA is generated by pre-mRNA through back splicing and plays an essential role in epigenetic gene expression at transcription and post-transcription levels. In recent years, more and more studies have found that circRNA are involved in occurrence and development of liver diseases, and have the potential to become biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases. This article summarized the classification, formation, biological functions and roles of circRNA in different liver diseases.
ABSTRACT
Objective To research the effect of mir-520c-3p targeted GPC3 to the hepatocellular carcinoma Huh-7 cell proliferation,migration,and the influence of the attack ability and find new theoretical basis for liver hepatocellular carcinoma clinical treatment.Methods The cells were divided into three groups:not transfection of mir-520c-3p group (cell group),negative control group (Nc group),and transfection of mir-520c-3p group (treat ment group).Then used fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western Blot to detect GPC3mRNA gene and protein expression quantity.Cell proliferation of change was detected by the EDU.Made use of Transwell to detect cell invasion and migration ability of the change.Results Fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that Cell group,NC group and treatment group were 1.13 ± 0.23,1.28 ± 0.15 and 1.05 ± 0.19 (P ＞ 0.05),mir-520-3p could not reduce the GPC3mRNA; but Western Blot detection results showed that GPC3 protein expression level reduce significantly after transfection mir-520c-3p,Cell,NC and treatment group were 2.16 ± 0.08,1.99 ± 0.04 and 0.499 ± 0.05 (P ＜ 0.01).The EDU detection results showed that hepatocellular carcinoma Huh-7 cell proliferation ability obviously inhibited after transfection mir-520c-3p,Cell group,NC group and treatment group were (90.12 ± 1.93) ％,(91.02 ± 0.35) ％ and (77.73 ± 5.88) ％ (P ＜ 0.05),and Transwell test found that hepatocellular carcinoma Huh-7cell invasion abilities were restrained,Cell group,NC group and treatment group were 0.071 ±0.008,0.105 ±0.001 and 0.048 ± 0.002 (P ＜ 0.05),in the same the cells' migration abilities were reduced,Cell group,NC group and treatment group were 0.546 ± 0.010,0.328 ± 0.002 and 0.151 ± 0.002 (P ＜0.01).Conclusions Mir-520c-3p can target GPC3 so that affect hepatocellular carcinoma Huh-7 cell proliferation,invasion and migration abilities.
ABSTRACT
Chronic hepatitis B virus is the most common cause of hepatocellular carcinoma. This article summarizes the pathogenesis of HBV-related carcinogenesis and the viral and host factors that may increase the risk of HCC development. HBV has 40RFs (S,C,P,X). The approach associated with HBV-related hepatocarcinogenesis includes paint mutation, insertion mutation and deletion mutations.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the feasbility of the orient differentiation from embryo hepatic Sca-1+ cell to hepatic cell or hepatic cell precursor under the induction of hepatocyte growth factor(HGF) and acor fibroblast growth factor(aFGF) in vitro. Methods Sea-1+ cells were isolated by immunomagnetic beads and their morphous were observed by contrast phase microscope. The expression of mRNA of albumin(ALB) and meta-thyroprotein were detected by RT-PCR; ALB, AFP, CK8/18 protein were detected by immunohistochemical method, and cell staining for glycogen and urea synthesis function were tested. Results The activity, purity, recovery rate of Sca-1+ cells were (94. 24±1.04) %, (85.57±1.66) %, (62. 31±1.85 ) % respectively. After the induction of HGF and aFGF, Sca1+ cells became anomalism and transformed to heptic cell in morphous,disappeared in expression of AFP protein and upregulated in expression of ALB and CK8/18 protein,upregulated in expression of ALB and transthyroprotein mRNA,cell staining of glycogen and urea synthesis function were strengthened,the cell differentiated to mature hepatic cell. Conclusion Embryo hepatic Sca-1+ cell could differentiate to hepatic cell or hepatic cell precursor under the induction of HGF and aFGF in vitro.
ABSTRACT
Objective To research the mechanism of impairment that cholestatic jaundice is treated as- sistly by MMDB. Methods Obstructive jaundice models with SD rats, which were divided into three time points randomly, namely 7,14,21 days,were established. In each time point, there were three groups(each six rats) : sham operation(SO + NS) ; BDL + MMDB; (BDL + NS). The rats were sacrificed at different time point, in order that liver tissue and inferior vena cava blood were taken out. The concentration of serum glutamate transaminase(AST), albumin(ALB), and total bilirubin (TB) were measured with biochemistry; the expression of TLR4mRNA was measured by reverse transcription PCR. Results On the 7th day after BDL, serum TB,AST level in BDL + MMDB and BDL + NS group were upgrade compared with SO group, in which BDL + NS group were more obviously upgrade than BDL + MMDB group(P<0.01). There was differ- ent to compare between BDL + MMDB group and SO group(P <0.01). On the 14th, 21st day after BDL, serum TB, AST coNTents were to last upgrade in BDL + MMDB and BDL + NS group. It was opposite to the SO group(P <0. 01). Conclusion The level of TLR4 could be weaken by MMDB. It may relieve the im- pairment of liver in cholestatic jaundice by LPS.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the experience of laparoscopic purse-string transfixion of the internal ring combined with intraperitoneal onlay mesh(IPOM) laparoscopic herniorrhaphy in the treatment of adult indirect inguinal hernia.Methods The modified IPOM laparoscopic herniorrhaphy(laparoscopic purse-string transfixion of the internal ring combined with IPOM laparoscopic herniorrhaphy) was performed in 15 adult patients with indirect inguinal hernia in this hospital from September 2004 to February 2005.Results The time of operation was 30~60 min(mean,35 min). The patients were discharged from hospital 2~3 days after operation.Two patients complained of tractive discomfort after operation and were cured with postoperative physical therapy for 2 weeks.Follow-up observations in 15 patients for 2~6 months(mean,4.8 months) revealed no recurrence.Conclusions The modified IPOM laparoscopic herniorrhaphy is a safe and feasible option for adult indirect inguinal hernia,with advantages of simplicity of performance, few complications,mild postoperative pain,quick recovery,low recurrence,and good cosmetic results.
