METHODS: Male Bama pigs (n = 14) treated with ketamine hydrochloride and Sumianxin Ⅱ as induc- tion drugs followed by inhalation anesthesia with 2% isoflurane, underwent 70% hepatotectomy with loss of bleeding less than 50 mL, and with hepatic pedicle occlusion for 20 min, were divided into two groups: Hydrogen-group (n = 7), the pigs with inhalation of 2% hydrogen by the tracheal intubation during major hepa- totectomy; Contrast-group (n= 7), underwent 70% hepatotectomy without inhalation of hydrogen. Hemo- dynamic changes and plasma concentrations of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), hyaluronic acid (HA), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver tissue were measured at pre-operation, post-hepatotectomy (PH) 1 h and 3 h. The apoptosis and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expres- sion in liver remnant were evaluated at PH 3 h. Then we compared the two groups by these marks to evalu- ate the effect of the hydrogen in the liver injury during major hepatotectomy with the Pringle Maneuver in the swine. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in body weight, blood loss and removal liver weight be- tween the two groups. There was no significant differ- ence in changes of portal vein pressure between two groups at pre-operation, PH 30 min, but in hydrogen gas treated-group it slightly decrease and lower than its in Contrast-group at PH 3 h, although there were no significant difference (P = 0.655). ALT and AST in Hydrogen-group was significantly lower comparing to Contrast-group (P = 0.036, P = 0.011, vs P = 0.032, P = 0.013) at PH 1 h and 3 h, although the two groups all increased. The MDA level increased between the two group at PH i h and 3 h. In the hydrogen gas treated- group, the MDA level was not significantly significant at pre-operation and significantly low at PH 1 h and 3 h comparing to Contrast-group (P = 0.0005, P = 0.0004). In Hydrogen-group, the HA level was also significantly low to Contrast-group (P = 0.0005, P = 0.0005) al- though the two groups all increased at PH 1 h and 3 h. The expression of cluster of differentiation molecule 31 molecules Hydrogen-group was low to Contrast-group. However, PCNA index (%) was not statistically signifi- cant between the two groups (P = 0.802). Micropho- tometric evaluation of apoptotic index (AI) in terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling-stained tissue after hepatotectomy for 3h, the AI% level in the hydrogen was significantly low to Contrast-group (P = 0.012). There were no significant difference between Hydrogen-group and Contrast- group at pre-operation (P = 0.653, P = 0.423), but after massive hepatotectomy, the TNF-α and IL-6 levels increase, and its in Hydrogen-group was significantly low compared with Contrast-group (P = 0.022, P = 0.013, vs P = 0.016, P= 0.012), respectively. Hydro- gen-gas inhalation reduce levels of these markers and relieved morphological liver injury and apoptosis.CONCLUSION: H2 gas attenuates markedly ischemia and portal hyperperfusion injury in pigs with massive hepatotectomy, possibly by the reduction of inflamma- tion and oxidative stress, maybe a potential agent for treatment in clinic.展开更多

Methods: Various concentrations of HOXB2 asodn modified by thiophosphate transfected the induction of liposome into HUVECs. MTT and RT-PCR methods were employed to determine the effect of different concentrations of asodn on the endothelial proliferation and the expression level of HOXB2 mRNA. Results: After the transfection of HOXB2 asodn, the endothelial proliferation was inhibited in a dose-dependent fashion. Simultaneously, the expression of HOXB2 mRNA decreased significantly. Conclusions: HOXB2 plays an important role in the proliferation of endothelia.展开更多
