【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the proliferation rate of HepG2 cell after multiple thermotherapy and the possible reasons related to it. MethodsAfter HepG2 cell were treaded by ten repeated cycles of heat exposure at 43 ℃ for 80 minutes twice a day, the doubling time of cell was analyzed， and the cell cycle, bcl2 mRNA and bax mRNA were detected. ResultsThe proliferation rate of HepG2 cell which treated with heat speeded up, the percentage of G2 and S in cell cycle increased, the expression of bcl2 mRNA strengthened and the rate of bcl2/bax increased. ConclusionThe speeded proliferation of HepG2 cell after multiple thermotherapy is related to its high percentage of DNA duplicated and dividing cell, strengthened expression of bcl2 mRNA and increased rate of bcl2/bax.
Objective To examine the effects of carbon dioxide (CO2) pneumoperitoneum on local pancreas pathological changes, serum levels of amylase, IL-1, IL-6, and the positive rate of dissolubility adhesion molecule (CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18) expression in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Fifty healthy male SpragueDawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: CO2 pneumoperitoneum group (n=20): SAP was induced by injecting 5% sodium taurocholate through retrogradely common biliopancreatic ducts via duodenal papilla， and then CO2 pneumoperitoneum was established at a pressure of 12 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa) for 30 min; SAP group (n=20): The rats were treated as same as CO2 pneumoperitoneum group, except CO2 pneumoperitoneum； Simple operation group (n=10): Laparotomy was performed and nothing was done to duodenum and pancreas except for moving them softly. The blood samples were collected for examining serum levels of amylase, IL-1, IL-6, and the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 expression, and histopathologic examination of pancreas was performed. Results Compared with simple operation group, the pancreatic pathologic histology score, serum levels of amylase, IL-1, IL-6, and the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 expression were significantly higher in CO2 pneumoperitoneum group and SAP group (P=0.000). The levels of IL-1 and IL-6 were significantly lower in CO2 pneumoperitoneum group as compared to SAP group (P=0.000). There was no significant difference between CO2 pneumoperitoneum group and SAP group in pancreatic pathologic histology score (P=0.294), the level of serum amylase (P=0.073), the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 (P=0.155) and CD11b/CD18 expression (P=0.201). Conclusion CO2 pneumoperitoneum has inhibitory effect on the levels of IL-1 and IL-6, rather than the positive rates of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 expression in SD rats with SAP.
