    Abstract:
    Objective:To explore the causation,diagnosis and management of iatrogenic bile duct injury(BDI) of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).
    Methods :A total of 1 656 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our department during the last 7 years were included in this study for retrospective analysis.
    Results:There were 274 patients with gallbladder polyps,168 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis and 1214 patients with chronic calculous cholecystitis.There were 15 BDIs associated with LC(0.91%).A total of 8 BDI patients were diagnosed during cholecystectomy. The remaining 7 BDI patients were diagnosed postoperatively.The intraoperative diagnosis of BDI was made on the discovery of bile leakage or double biliary stump during cholecystectomy.Clinical features, diagnostic abdominocentesis and imaging findings formed the basis of diagnosis of BDI postoperatively. One BDI patient was treated by repairing the injuried common bile duct with a T-tube drinage. Four BDI patients were treated by end-to-end anastomosis of injuried bile duct, and one of the four patients was reoperated with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy because of bile leakage. The remaining 10 BDI patients were treated by Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy, and good results were achieved in all of these patients.
    Conclusions:There is no relationship between the etiology of gallbladder disease and BDI during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Good results can be achieved if BDI is diagnosed early and treated properly during or after operation. Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy is the primary operation method for treating BDI.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To investigate the relationship between motor abnormality of sphincter of Oddi (SO) and hepatolithiasis.
    Methods :The hepatolithiasis rabbit models were established in adult rabbits(n=64) which were randomly divded into 2 groups:control group (n=16)and experimental group(n=48),including 2 wk,4 wk and 8 wk group(n=16 per group). During the formation process of hepatolithiasis, bile character and ratio of stone formation were both observed, then the myoelectric waves of SO were recorded.Finally, The SO segment was sliced and observed by transmissional electron microscope.
    Results:The rate of true stone formation in group 8 wk(68.75%,11/16)was higher than that in group 4wk (12.50%,2/16)and in group 2wk (0.00%,0/16). Compared with the control group, there was significant decrease of both SO myoelectric peak amplitude and SO myoelectric frequency in the experimental group. Electron microscopy showed that SO cells in control group and 2wk group had no change, but the 4wk and 8wk groups underwent changes including fibrolysis of myofilament, increase of collagen fibers, fusion and thickening of microfilament, decrease and array disorder of macula densa, swelling of chondrosome and endoplasmic reticulum, widening of perinuclear space and deviation and pyknosis of nucleus, and formation of inclusion body in cytoplasm; and the degeneration degree in 8wk group was obvious than that in group 4wk.
    Conclusions:The functional abnormality of SO may contribute important effects on the formation of hepatolithiasis. Fibrous degeneration of SO maybe the pathogenesis of functional abnormality of SO.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To explore the roles of peribiliary vascular plexus(PBP) on regeneration of intrahepatic bile ducts after warm ischemia-reperfusion injury and the possible meshanism of PBP on bile ducts sensitive to warm ischemia-reperfusion injury of transplanted liver.
    Methods :Male SD rats were used in this experiment. The animals were divided into three groups: shame operation group(S group), warm ischemia of grafts for 0 min group (W0 group),and warm ischemia of grafts for 10 min group (W10 group). Seven time points were determined as 0 h,6,24 h,and 3,7,14,30 d post-reperfusion. Six animals were used per time-point. ALT, GGT, and TBIL of serum were determined.Serial liver sections were made and were immunolocalized by CK19 and FⅧ-R Ag to assess the co-localization of bile ducts and microvessels. Bile ducts were identified by CK19 and microvessels were identified by FⅧ-R Ag.
    Results:In W10 group, the level of plasma GGT and total bilirubin was elevated with a increase longer than in W0 group. The portal inflammation, damage of bile ducts,and fibrosis area of portal area of W10 group were significantly more seriously than those in W0 and S groups. Under electron microscope, micro-thrombosis in microvessels were observed in W10 group. Furthermore, in W10 group, the number of intraportal microvessels at 6h and 24 h post-reperfusion was markedly decreased compared to that of W0 and S groups. In W10 group, although cholangiocytes showed significant regeneration at 24 h post-reperfusion, the number of intraportal microvessels and bile ducts with accompanying microvessels was not higher than that of W0 and S groups at 14 to 30 days after reperfusion.
    Conclusions:Warm ischemia-reperfusion injury of liver grafts can cause microthrombosis of peribilary vascular plexus and induce increased damage of vascular endothelial cells and the later can cause disturbance of microcirculation of bile ducts and delayed regcneration of bile ducts.These changes may be important causes of vulnerability of bile ducts to warm ischemia-reperfusion injury.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To explore the effect of CXCR7shRNA lentiviral vector on CXCR7 expression of human colon cancer cell line HT-29.
    Methods :Three siRNA interference sequences targeting CXCR7 gene were designed. Double-stranded shRNA hairpins were synthetized and separately cloned into plVTHM vector digested by double-enzyme so as to recombinate 3 shuttle-plasmids of plVTHM shRNA1, plVTHM shRNA2, plVTHM shRNA3. Then these recombinant plasmids were transformed into DH5α competent cells. After Amp screening positive clones, plasmid was taken from line for subsequent identification by enzyme-digestion and DNA sequencing analysis. The titer of lentivirus was determined after 293T cells were cotransfected with plVTHM shRNA and lentiviral packaging plasmids. The 3 kinds of recombinant lentiviruses and negative control lentiviruses were used to infect HT-29 cells and then CXCR7mRNA and protein were detected by real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively.
    Results:Identification of enzyme-digestion and DNA sequencing analysis confirmed that the 3 CXCR7shRNA sequences were successfully inserted into the lentiviral vectors with the titers of concentrated virus 6×107TU/mL, 4×107TU/mL and 5×107TU/mL, respectively. CXCR7 expression in HT-29 cells was significantly decreased at both mRNA and protein levels compared with the non-transfected and negative control vector (P<0.05). The LV-CXCR7shRNA-2 and LV-CXCR7shRNA-3 played a significant role in reducing mRNA by 72% and 67%, protein by 68% and 55% (P<0.05), respectively; the silent effect showed no significant difference between the nontransfected and negative control vector (P>0.05).
    Conclusions:The 3 lentiviral shRNA expression vectors targeting CXCR7 gene were successfully constructed and can effectively downregulate the expression of CXCR7 in HT-29 cells.Thus it provid stable cell transfection vector for further study of CXCR7 gene-targeted gene therapy on colon cancer

    Abstract:
    Objective:To explore the effect and the mechanism of TREM-1vshRNA in the form of sepsis in mice caused by live bacteroides fragilis and the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8.
    Methods :Male mice(BALB/c) were randomly divided into 4 groups: positive control (group C), saline(group S),TREM-1vshRNA(group T) and GFPvshRNA control vshRNA (group G) groups. Bacteroides fragilis (25mg/ kg) was injected via caudal veins in each group to establish the murine septic model. The expression of TREM-1, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), IL-1β,lL-6, IkBa, pDAP12 and NF-κBp65 in spleen was observed in each group.
    Results:In comparison with group C there was marked elevation of expession of TREM-1mRNA and protein in group T (P<0.01).Compared to group C there was marked elevation of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 content in splenic cells of groups T,G and S (P<0.01).The level of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in splenic cells of group T was markedly lower than that of groups S and G (P<0.01).In splenic cells of group S,pDAP12 and NF-κBP 65 protein expression was markedly increased compared to group T; the expression of 1κBa protein in splenic cells of groups was decreased.
    Conclusions:The interference of TREM-1 signal pathway by TREM-1vshRNA may inhibit the genetic transcriptions of inflammatory factors, such as TNF-α,IL-1β ,IL-6 by downregulating the expression of DAP12, so to stablize the compound of IkBa/NF-κB, can inhibit the inflammatory reaction induced by Bacteroides fragilis.
