  • Significance of p16 and Rb Gene Protein Expression in Primary Gallbladder Carcinoma

    Objective To study the expression of p16 and Rb gene in primary gallbladder carcinoma (PGC). MethodsFiftysix cases of PGC and 26 of gallbladder benign lesions were observed by immunohistochemistry (SP). ResultsThe positive rates of p16 and Rb protein in PGC were 46.3% and 71.4% respectively. No association of Rb expression with histological grade, histological type, invasion, metastasis and prognosis was found. There were close correlation between p16 expression and invasion, metastasis as well as prognosis. The inverse correlation of p16 and Rb gene expression in PGC was confirmed. Conclusion The loss of p16 or Rb gene protein is an important molecular event in PGC,and closely related to the block in the negative regulatory pathway of all cell cycle. The detection of p16 protein may be useful in evaluating biological characteristics and prognosis in PGC.

  • Expression of HERG in CD1 Mice Gallbladder and Its Possible Implications

    Objective To study the expressions of human ether-a-go-go related gene (HERG) in CD1 mice gallbladder and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) and explore their possible implications. Methods The expression of HERG protein in gallbladder tissue slices obtained from CD1 mice was detected by immunohistochemistry method. The expression of HERG mRNA in gallbladder tissue was detected by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. The production of HERG protein was confirmed in the CD1 mice gallbladder by Western blot. Enzymatically dispersed cells were identified as ICC using the specific ICC marker c-kit antibody, and the double positive cells of c-kit and HERG were observed by laser passing confocal microscope. Results HERG was present in the CD1 mice gallbladder tissues for the yellow or buffy positive reaction. At the same time, the expression of mRNA specific for the HERG gene and production of HERG protein in the CD1 mice gallbladder tissues were indicated by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis, respectively. Using double labeling of anti-c-kit and anti-HERG, the double positive cells of c-kit and HERG were observed in the CD1 mice ICC by laser passing confocal microscope. Conclusion The study demonstrates that HERG is present in the CD1 mice gallbladder tissues and ICC, which is likely related to the pacemaking activity of ICC.

  • Clinical Efficacy of Laparoscopic Minimally-invasive Surgery for Gallbladder Stone

    ObjectiveTo investigate and compare the advantages and disadvantages of laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy for patients with gallbladder stone. MethodsThe eligible patients with gallbladder stones hospitalized in our department between January 2007 and December 2011 were included, and all of them received either laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy (observation group) or laparoscopic cholecystectomy (control group) minimally-invasive surgery. The operation time, bleeding volume, enterokinesia recovery time, hospital stay, post-operative complication and follow-up results were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 148 patients were included, with 68 patients in the observation group and 80 patients in the control group. In this cohort, the success rate of surgery for the observation group and the control group was 100.0% (68/68) and 98.8% (79/80), respectively; and the success rate of complete stone removal was 100% for both two groups. B-ultrasound examination after 2 weeks of treatment showed that gallbladder wall was normal and gallbladder contraction rate was more than 30% for all patients with laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy. The operation time was (49.6±5.2) minutes for the observation group and (50.5±6.2) minutes for the control group, and bleeding volume was (9.5±1.4) mL for the observation group and (50.2±8.1) mL for the control group; the difference in bleeding volume was significant between the two groups (P<0.05). The difference in enterokinesia recovery time[(33.9±2.2) and (34.4±2.6) minutes] or hospital stay[(3.4±1.0) and (3.6±1.2) days] between the observation group and the control group was not significant (both P >0.05). The post-operative complications of bleeding, bile leakage and wound infection were not observed in both two groups, and all patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months with no stone recurrence; and only 2.7% of patients (1/37) had stone recurrence after 3-year follow-up. ConclusionBoth laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures are safe and efficient. However, laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy not only reserves gallbladder but also has superiority of less bleeding volume.

  • Evaluation of Sclerosing Effects of Several Chemical Sclerosants on Gallbladder Mucosa

    Objective To evaluate the sclerosing effects of several chemical sclerosants on the gallbadder mucosa in vivo. Methods Twentyeight rabbits were randomly divided into: Normal saline was used as contrast agent, and 95% ethanol, 5% tetracycline and compound phenol as sclerosants respectively. The cystic duct was ligated and cholecystostomy was performed for each animal. Sclerosants and contrast agent were injected into the gallbladder through a tube respectively and were kept in the gallbladder for 15 minutes. Animals were killed two weeks later; the gallbladder, bile duct and adjacent liver tissue were obtained for histopathological examination. Results With the naked eye, normal saline and 5% tetracycline made the cavity of the gallbladder unchanged; 95% ethanol made two gallbladder cavities occluded, two smaller, and three unchanged; and compound phenol made four gallbladder cavities occluded, and three smaller. In histopathological observations, 95% ethanol and compound phenol could make seven rabbits’ gallbladder mucosa completely destroyed (7/7); compared with normal saline (1/7), there was significant difference (P<0.01). Five percent tetracycline had some effect of ablating the gallbladder mucosa (5/7), but compared with normal saline, there was no difference (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion Ninety-five percent ethanol can be clinically applied as an effective and safe sclerosant.
