ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the regulatory effect of circular RNA circ_0120051 on the fibrotic phenotype of cardiac fibroblasts and the potential mechanism involved. MethodsThe expression of circ_0120051 and its host gene of solute carrier family 8 member A1(SLC8A1) mRNA in the myocardium of healthy organ donors (n=24) and heart failure (HF) patients (n=21) were assessed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) assay. RNA stability of circ_0120051 was identified by RNase R exonuclease digestion assay. The cytoplasmic and nuclear distribution of circ_0120051 in human cardiomyocyte AC16 was detected by RT-qPCR assay. The expression of fibrosis-related genes in mouse cardiac fibroblasts (mCFs) with adenovirus-mediated overexpression of circ_0120051 was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot assay, respectively. The effect of overexpression of circ_0120051 on the migration activity of mCFs was evaluated by wound-healing assay. RNA co-immunoprecipitation (RIP) was conducted to detect the interaction between circ_0120051 and miR-144-3p. The binding site of miR-144-3p in the 3'-UTR of isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (Idh2) mRNA was identified by the dual luciferase reporter gene assay. ResultsCirc_0120051 was significantly up-regulated in the myocardium of HF patients, while the mRNA expression of its host gene SLC8A1 was not changed. Circ_0120051 was mainly located in the cytoplasm of human AC16 cells. Results of RNase R exonuclease digestion revealed that circ_0120051 possesses the characteristic stability of circular RNA compared to the linear SLC8A1 mRNA. Overexpression of circ_0120051 could inhibit the expression of fibrosis-related gene in mCFs and mCFs migration. RIP assay confirmed the specific interaction between circ_0120051 and miR-144-3p. Transfection of miR-144-3p mimic could efficiently promote the expression of fibrosis-related genes in mCFs and reverse the inhibitory effect of circ_0120051 on the fibrotic phenotype of mCFs. Results of the dual luciferase reporter gene assay confirmed the interaction between miR-144-3p and the 3'-UTR of Idh2. Transfection of miR-144-3p transcriptionally inhibited Idh2 expression, and overexpression of circ_0120051 enhanced IDH2 expression in mCFs. MiR-144-3p mimic and Idh2 small interfering RNA (siRNA) could consistently reverse the inhibitory effects of circ_0120051 on fibrosis-related genes expression in mCFs and mCFs migration. ConclusionsCirc_0120051 inhibits the fibrotic phenotype of cardiac fibroblasts via sponging miR-144-3p to enhance the target gene of IDH2 expression.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To study laparoscopic ultrasound assisted hepatectomy in treatment of intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones.@*Methods@#The data of 52 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy from May 2014 to January 2019 at the Fuyang District First People's Hospital in Hangzhou were analyzed retrospectively. There were 28 men and 24 women. The median age was 56 years. Operative laparoscopic ultrasonography was used to detect the location, size, distribution of stones and their relations to blood vessels. A total of 43 patients underwent anatomic hepatectomy, while 38 patients underwent choledochoscopic stone extraction. A " T" tube was used according to intraoperative conditions.@*Results@#Laparoscopic surgery was successfully carried out in 50 patients, while conversion to open surgery was required in 2 patients because of adhesions and bleeding. Laparoscopic ultrasonography revealed intrahepatic calcifications in 5 patients and choledochoscopy in 2 patients. Postoperative complications included 5 patients who devleoped abdominal abscesses. The operation time was (289.0±132.0) minutes. The intraoperative blood loss was (451.0±256.0) ml. The hospitalization after operation was (12.0±3.0) days. In 52 patients, 4 patients had residual stones and the residual rate was 7.7%. All of them were completely removed by T-tube sinus 8 weeks after operation.@*Conclusions@#Laparoscopic ultrasound helped to detect relevant bile ducts containing stones, reduced chance of bleeding in surgery, helped to clarify location and distribution of stones, improved accuracy of diagnosis, and reduced unnecessary hepatectomy by clearly defining intrahepatic bile duct stones intraoperatively. The residual intrahepatic and intrahepatic bile duct stones rates were reduced, and the safety and accuracy of the operations were improved.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and relevant factors of 88 cases of cirrhotic portal hyper-tension complicated with gallstone. Methods A total of 366 patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension complicated with gallstone were selected. 88 patients were assigned to a gallstone group and 278 patients were assigned to a control group on the basis of clinical diagnosis. Retrospective analysis was carried out for clinical data and auxiliary examina-tion data of the two groups, and single-factor and multi-factor analyses were applied for the risk factors of cirrhotic portal hypertension complicated with gallstone. Results Child-Pugh grade ≥B, ascites, peak systolic flow velocity of hepatic artery, portal thrombosis, peripancreatic varicose veins, and varicose veins of gallbladder were independent risk factors of cirrhotic portal hypertension complicated with gallstone (P<0.05). Conclusion Cirrhotic portal hypertension complicated with gallstone is related to hepatic functions, ascites, hemodynamics of hepatic artery, and collateral circu-lation of portal vein, and Child-Pugh grade≥B, ascites, peak systolic flow velocity of hepatic artery, portal thrombosis, peripancreatic varicose veins, and varicose veins of gallbladder are independent risk factors.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the clinical applications and surgical methods of combined laparoscopic common bile duct (CBD) exploration with choledochoscopy. Methods From 2006 to 2009,clinical data of 42 patients with choledocholithiasis undergoing laparoscopic common bile duct exploration were retrospectively analyzed. We applied a step-by-step electric coagulating incision technique on the CBD,the step-by-step suturing technique, and the step-by-step clamping technique with alligator forceps, and soft tube irrigating technique with suctioning by selecting the proper exploration route, improving the common bile duct incision technique and calculus removing techniques. Results Procedures were successful in all the cases. There was no conversions to open surgery, no postoperative bleeding and no operative mortality. The mean operating time was 120 minutes (ranging, 90 to 150 minutes) with minimal intraoperative blood loss ( ranging, 20 to 40 ml). Ductal stone clearance was successful in 41 out of 42 patients ( 93% ). The largest number of the common bile duct stones was 16. With the diameter of stones larger than 15 mm in 18 cases in which the biggest was 30 mm. Bile leak developed in 1 patient, retained stones found in 3 patients,including intrahepatic cholelithiasis in one case. As a result, 38 out of 42 patients underwent common bile duct exploration. 35 patients were placed on T-tubes. Four patients underwent cystic duct exploration in which 3 had primary suture of the cystic duct and 1 had drainage. There was no infection and stenosis of biliary tract in the 42 followed-up cases. Conclusions Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration with stone extraction can be performed with high efficiency, minimal morbidity and without mortality. Improving the way of operation and selecting suitable exploration can result in better clinical outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the value of CT and MRI in diagnosis and directing clinical management of vertebral burst fracture.Methods The imaging features of vertebral burst fracture in 66 cases were analyzed,including cervical vertebrae 6,thoracic vertebrae 3,thoracolumbar area 48,and lumbar vertebrae 9 cases.There were 50 male and 16 female,the average age was 35 years.CT and MRI were taken in all patients.Results CT clearly demonstrated the vertebrae and accompanying appendix fracture,spinal canal stenosis and retropulsed fragment.While MRI in showing injury and tear of ligament and intervertebral disc,abnormal signals due to spinal cord compression were superior to CT.Conclusion CT in combination with MRI in diagnosis and directing surgical management is of important value.
