  • Clinical Study on pTNM Classification in Predicting Prognosis of Hepatic Cell Carcinoma after Liver Transplantation

    【Abstract】Objective To evaluate the value of pTNM classification in predicting the prognosis of hepatic cell carcinoma after liver transplantation. Methods Fifty-nine HCC cases undergoing liver transplantation between April 1993 and January 2003 were retrospectively reviewed. Fiftynine cases were staged by using the pTNM classification. Results The 1-year survival rates were 66.67%, 66.67%, 40.91% and 31.75% for Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲa and Ⅳa stages,2-year survival rates were 66.67%, 66.67%, 21.29% and 31.75%, the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion The pTNM classification is not good enough to predict the prognosis of hepatic cell carcinoma after liver transplantation.

  • Role of Mitochondria in Apoptosis Induced by Rapamycin of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Bel-7402 Cells

    Objective To investigate the cell growth inhibition and apoptosis induced by rapamycin on human hepatocellular carcinoma Bel-7402 cells and to study the role of mitochondrium membrane potential in the process of apoptosis. Methods Bel-7402 cells in vitro were given 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 nmol/L different concentrations of rapamycin, and the cell growth inhibiting ratio of Bel-7402 was assessed by MTT assay. The changes of morphology of Bel-7402 were observed by Hoechst 33258 staining and flow cytometry (FCM), respectively; The cell mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by using JC-1 staining method. Results Rapamycin could inhibit the growth of Bel-7402 cells significantly by inducing apoptosis, and the growth suppression and the cell apoptosis both presented time-effect relationship and were also dose-dependent. The rates of inhibiting and cell apoptosis after 72 h exposure to 50 nmol/L rapamycin were significantly higher that those of other groups (P<0.01). Typical morphological changes of cell apoptosis were observed very clearly after the Bel-7402 cells had been exposed to rapamycin for 48 hours using Hoechst 33258 staining method, and it was also observed that the mitochondrial membrane potential decreased when apoptosis occured (P<0.01). Conclusion Rapamycin could inhibit the growth of Bel-7402 cells by inducing cell apoptosis, and the descent of mitochondrial membrane potential may play an important role in the process of cell apoptosis.

  • Study of the Growth Effect on Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Line STHZHepG2 by Methylprednisolone

    【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the growth effect of methylprednisolone (MP) on human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2.Methods Periodic distribution of cells and cellular apoptosis were detected by using cell culture,immunofluorescence staning of Annex Ⅴ and flow cytometric analysis in hepatocellular carcinoma cell.Results Compared with control group, methylprednisolone increased G0/G1 phase cell, decreased S phase cell on human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 ,which had positive correlation with the time.The apoptosis rate and the necrosis rate of cells had the relation of dose-dependent with the concentration of MP, the cell membrane of early cellular apoptosis was stained green fluorescence. Conclusion Methylprednisolone can induce G0/G1 arrest , may play a proliferation-inhibition effect on the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2.
