Objective To investigate the phenotypic change and proliferation of fibroblasts in human inflammatory strictured bile duct wall. Methods We observed the density and ultrastructure of fibroblasts, and the histologic structure in human normal bile duct wall and inflammatory strictured bile duct wall by light and electron microscope.Results The results showed that fibroblasts were the main source of extracellular matrix production in bile duct wall. The phenotype of fibroblasts in inflammatory strictured bile duct wall changed obviously, quiescent fibroblasts were activated and transformed to myofibroblasts, with massive proliferation. Conclusion These data suggest that massive proliferation of activated fibroblasts and myofibroblasts is the main source of extracellular matrix overproduction which results in inflammatory bile duct stricture.
The contents of lipid peroxides(LPO)and vitamin E(V.E)and some functional index and histologic changes in the lungs from the the rabbit models of acute cholangitis of severe type(ACST)were measured dynamically.The results revealed that the V.E content decreased strikingly from 6 hours and the LPO level increased progressivelg from 12 hours in the lungs.Simultanuosly,the congestion and neutrophil infiltreation in the lung mesenchyme,and the endothelial cell damage and thrombosis in the lung blood capillaries had been observed.These suggest that acute lung injury induced by ACST is referable to the lipid peroxidation damage to the lung blood capillaries which is due to increased LPO and decreased antioxidants including V.E.
Objective To study the neural mechanism of hypotension or shock state in acute cholangitis in severe type (ACST) and its value of clinical application. Methods A technique of blocking abdominal splanchnic nervi via right adipose capsule of kidney was carried out on 28 patients by injecting 1% lidocaine before urgent operation. Results After blocking the relevant nervi, hypotension or shock state in 23 patients were improved significantly (Ｐ＜0.05). The death rate was lower (14.3%) after having performed biliary decompressions with laparotomy. Conclusion Patients′ hypotension or shock state at the early phase of ACST is the result of neural reflex in which the splanchnic nervi is its afferent pathway. Blocking the relevant nervi before urgent operation, the valuable opportunity of emergency treatment can be obtainded and the complication and death rate are reduced significantly.
To evaluate the effect of intercellular adhesiveness molecule-1 (ICAM-1), E-selectin on hepatic microcirculation in acute cholangitis. The Changes of hepatic tissue, content of blood flow and Evan′s blue (EB) in hepatic tissue in acute cholangitis were determinated. Results: The number of PMN in hepatic tissue and sinusin increased, degenaration and necrosis of the hepatic cells and hepatic sinusoidal endothelial cells and content of blood flow in liver were reduced, and content of EB in hepatic tissue increased remarkbly in the rats with acute cholangitis. Pretreatment of anti ICAM-1 and E-selectin mAb reduced the damage of hepatic microcirculation. Conclusion: ICAM-1 and E-selectin may play an important role in damage to hepatic microcirculation in acute cholangitis.
Objective To determine whether local delivery of c-myc shRNA could inhibit hyperplasia and lithogenic potentiality in a rat model of chronic proliferative cholangitis (CPC) via specific blockade of the c-myc expression. Methods The CPC animal model (CPC group) was established via retrograde insertion of a 5-0 nylon thread into the common bile duct through Vater’s papilla. Three kinds of c-myc shRNAs were then respectively injected in c-myc shRNA group, which were included shRNA-1, shRNA-2, and shRNA-3, respectively. Negative control group and sham operation group were established for comparison. Subsequently, histopathological changes of bile duct wall were observed by HE, Massion, and PAS/AB staining; c-myc protein was detected by immunohistochemistry method; 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) protein was tested by immumofluorescence method; c-myc, Mucin 3, and Procollagen Ⅰ mRNAs were detected by real time PCR; Ki-67 protein was determined by Western blot; Activity of β-glucuronidase was measured by modified Fisherman method. Results ①Compared with the CPC and negative control groups, biliary tract mucosa epithelium (HE staining), submucosal acid mucinous gland (mid-blue staining, PAS/AB staining), and degree of over-hyperplasia of collagen fiber in bile duct wall (blue staining, Massion staining) were weaker in the c-myc shRNA group. ②The expressions of c-myc mRNA, Mucin 3 mRNA, Procollagen Ⅰ mRNA, Ki-67 protein, and β-G activity in the c-myc shRNA group were lower than those of the CPC and negative control groups (Plt;0.05), but higher than those of the sham operation group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion c-myc shRNA treatment could effectively inhibit the hyperplastic behavior and lithogenic potential of CPC, which might help to prevent the biliary restenosis and stone recurrence.
To study the lipid peroxidation injury and the protecting effect of vitamin E emulsion on liver function following acute cholangitis. During the operation and 24 hours after operation, vitamin E emulsion or placebo emulsion was infused via mesenteric vein in rats suffering acute cholangitis. The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the liver tissue and serum were measured at 48hrs after operation. Results: As compared with the placebo emulsion group, MDA and mGOT contents in the liver tissue and serum decreased significantly, but SOD activity increased dramatically in the VE emulsion group. ATP content in the infected lobe was much higher than those in the placebo emulsion group. Conclusion: Intravenous infusion of large dose of vitamin E emulsion may reduce the lipid peroxidation reaction in acute cholangitis, and have protecting effect.

31 cases of iatrogenic cholangic injury reported. 28 cases followed from 9 months to 6 years. iatrogenic cholangic injury is not an uncommon occurence main cases are inregular procedures, and carelessness in this group, only 9 cases were found intraoperatively. The main manifestations after injury were aggravating jaundice and/or bilious peritonitis. Symptoms, signs, B-type ultrsound and sometimes ERCP were used for diagnosis. Once the injury ascertained ends are the best treatment, an alternative Roux-Y Cholangiojejunostomy was also commonly used. In this group, 4 cases received the first methos and all with good results; 23 patients treated by the second methos, 17 were uneventful, 4 experienced more or less abdomenal pain, 2 suffered difinite repeated cholangitis and another 1 died.
