Effect of Local Delivery of Paclitaxel on Anastomotic Wound Healing of the Common Bile Duct in Guinea Pig / 中国微创外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of local delivery of paclitaxel on bile duct scar formation and biliary stricture in guinea pig.Methods Models of end-to-end anastomosis of the common bile duct were established in 42 guinea pigs.The animals were randomly divided into paclitaxel and control groups.In the paclitaxel group,the drug solution(1000 ?mol/L,0.05 ml) was smeared onto the anastomotic wound before closing the abdomen.The animals were killed in 3 days,2 weeks,and 1 month after the operation(7 in each group at each time point).The sepcimens of the common bile duct were obtained for histological examination.Transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe the ultrastructure of paclitaxel-induced apoptotic cells.Results Histological examination showed inflammatory reaction and hyperplasia of the bile duct wall.The bile duct wall of the paclitaxel group was significantly thiner than that of the control group in 3 days and 1 month after the operation [3 days(574.41?24.53)?m vs(802.98?24.42) ?m,t=-6.604,P=0.000;1 month(1383.36?36.64) ?m vs(1518.56?34.89)?m,t=-2.672,P=0.020].Paclitaxel-induced cell apoptosis and injured cell organs were found by transmission electron microscopy.Conclusion Single local delivery of paclitaxel can inhibit biliary stricture in one month.
