AIM To evaluate the expression of CD44v3 and v6 protein in colorectal carcinoma and its prognosticsignificance.METHODS One hundred and twenty-one cases of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded colorectal carcinomaspecimens were retrospectively analyzed using EnvisionTM immunohistochemical method with the monoclonalantibody CD44v3 and v6. The median follow-up time was 67.77 months and the prognostic value of theCD44v3 and CD44v6 was assessed using univariate and multivariate survival analysis.RESULTS The positive rates of CD44v3 and v6 protein were 60.3% and 57.9%, respectively. There wassignificant correlation between CD44v3 immunoreactivity and tumor location, lymph node metastasis, distantmetastasis and Duke's stage (P< 0.05, Spearman correlation test). Significant correlation between CD44v6immunoreactivity and patients' gender, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, Duke's stage was alsonoticed (P < 0.05, Spearman correlation test). The 5-year survival rates were 81.25% and 60.27% inCD44v3 negative and positive cases, respectively. As CD44v6, the 5-year survival rates were 80.39% and60.00% in CD44v6 negative and positive cases, respectively; these differences between the two groups ofpatients were significant (P<0.05, Log-rank test). In multivariate analysis using the Cox regression model,CD44v3 expression emerges as an independent prognostic indicator.CONCLUSION CD44v3 and v6 might play some important roles in metastasis of colorectal carcinoma, andCD44v3 expression might be a new useful independent prognostic marker of colorectal carcinoma.

AIM To study the liver-protecting and fibrosis-resisting effect of Ganxianning (GXN) and its mechanism.METHODS Model of carbon tetrachloride hepatic injury fibrosis rats was reproduced. In the experimentthere were six groups, the treatment groups with GXN's large, moderate and small dose (GXNb, GXNm andGXNs), the treatment group with colchicine, the blank model group and normal control group. The course of treatment was 30 days, then the rats were killed with their blood and liver tested.RESULTS In treatment groups, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was lower than that in the model group(P<0.01), and albumin (Alb) higher than that in the model (P<0.01). Hydroxylproline (Hyp) and redcell membrane C3B receptor garland in GXNb's and GXNm's groups were lower and circulation complex(CIC) was slightly higher. Fibrinogen (Fb) in both colchicine and model groups was higher than that innormal group and the difference was significant (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with model group, acid-α-naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE) increased in GXNb's and GXNm's groups (P<0.05, P<0.01). Underlight and electron microscopes, level of hepatic fibrosis of GXN groups was much lower than that of themodel group, P<0.01, and their difference was very significant. In GXNms group, liver cell was normal onthe whole and its chromatin was more than the model group and its nucleolus was evident.CONCLUSION GXN has rather good functions of protecting liver and resisting fibrosis, and thesefunctions are related to the increase of ANAE and C3b, decrease of CIC and Fb. and improvement of bodyimmunity function.

AIM To evaluate the effects of expandable metallic stent biliary endoprostheses (EMSBE) viaultrasonographic guided percutaneous transhepatic approach on the treatment of benign and malignantobstructive jaundice.METHODS Thirty-eight patients with obstructive jaundice (29 males and 9 females) aged 27 to 69 years(mean 54.7 years) were studied. Of them, 4 were benign and 34 malignant obstructions. Percutaneoustranshepatic cholangiography (PTC) was performed under ultrasonic guidance. A catheter was introducedinto the dilated bile duct via the introducer. A guide wire was inserted through the occlusive part of biliary duct after dilating with a double-lumen balloon catheter. A self-expandable metallic stent was inserted intcthe occlusive bile duct under fluoroscopic control.RESULTS The success rate of sonographic guided PTC was 100% (38/38) and the success rate of stentimplantation was 86.8% (33/ 38). Biliary obstruction was eliminated immediately, jaundice subsidedgradually and symptoms relieved after the procedure. During the 3 to 28 months fellow-up, re-occlusionoccurred in 4 malignant cases which were corrected by balloon catheter dilation and/or by stent, one patienthad secondary cholangitis and fifteen died without jaundice 6 - 28 months after the procedure. The otherswere alive with no jaundice. No severe complications or side effects were observed.CONCLUSION EMSBE via sonographic guided percutaneous transhepatic approach is a reliable and safepalliative therapy for malignant jaundice and an ideal nonoperative method for benign biliary obstruction. Ithas a definite positive impact on the quality of patient life.

AIM To study the effect of sclerotic complex agents (SCA) on the gallbladder wall of hybrid rabbits, andits therapeutic effect in hepatic cysts.METHODS The SCA containing tetracycline and dexamethasone was injected into the gallbladder of rabbitsto compare its action with those of normal saline and absolute ethylalcohol on the gallbladder wall. Thetherapeutic effects of SCA and absolute ethylalcohol on hepatic cysts were observed.RESULTS Abnormal changes were not found in the tissue cells of gallbladder in normal saline group. Butin absolute ethylalcohol group, a large amount of oozing fluid and blood appeared, the absorption processwas slow, and the fibrous tissue proliferated scarcely. In SCA group, there was less oozing fluid, no blood inthe gallbladder, and the absorption was active and the fibrous tissues grow obviously. In clinical practice,SCA possesses much advantage in the treatment of hepatic cysts, by which the cysts closed promptly, theexudation reduced from early stimulation, and no relapse occurred. The cure rates at the third, sixth,twelfth and twenty-fourth month were 65.1%, 96.2%, 98.1%, and 99.1% respectively; while in thecontrol group were 10.8%, 36.0%, 67.6% and 88.3% respectively. The difference was significant(P<0.01, <0.01, <0.01, <0.05). After the observation for 24 months, no relapse occurred in the SCAgroup, but 7 (6.3%) cases relapsed in control group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION The sclerotic agents should be used in sequence, i. e., a high concentration wasadministered to reduce and destroy the epithelium of the cysts, and to promote fiber tissue adhesion and thenthe remaining drug was used to stimulate epithelium to absorb the exudation. This combined regimen wasproved to be an ideal and effective method for treating hepatic cysts clinically.

AIM To determine the effect of glutathione (GSH) on stress gastric mucosal lesion.METHODS The stress gastric mucosal lesion as produced by restraint water-immersion in rats and gastricmucosal lesion, gastric mucosal GSH content, gastric acid secretion and gastric barrier mucus secretion wereexamined. We also observed the effect of GSH on gastric mucosal lesion and the effect of N-ethylmaleimine(NEM) and indomethacin on GSH protection. Comparisons between two groups were made using the Students t test.RESULTS GSH (100 and 200 mg/kg) intraperitoneally protected against stress gastric mucosal lesion(P<0.001 and P<0.001). Restraint water-immersion stress significantly reduced gastric mucosal GSHcontent (P < 0.001), but pretreatment with GSH (100 mg/kg) had no effect on gastric mucosal GSH content(P>0.05). The preinjection of NEM (10 mg/kg, sc.), a sulfhydryl-blocking reagent, or indomethacin(5 mg/kg, im.), a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, had no effect on protection of GSH (P>0.05). GSH(100mg/kg) significantly increased secretion of gastric barrier mucus (P<0.05), but had no effect onsecretion of gastric acid in restraint water-immersed rats (P >0.05).CONCLUSION GSH can inhibit the formation of gastric mucosal lesions induced by restraint water-immersion. The protective effect of GSH was due, in part, to promoting the secretion of gastric barriermucus, but not to suppress the gastric acid secretion. The protection effect of GSH has no relation withgastric mucosal GSH and PGs.
