Semiquantitative evaluation was performed with emphasis on the area of the tumor itself and of the tumor/liver interface.RESULTS: All hepatocellular carcinomas showed in-filtration of lymphocytes predominantly around the tumor in the tumor/liver interface consisting mainly of CD3+ CD4+ T lymphocytes [164.3/10 high power f ields (HPF)] and in the tumor itself of CD8+ cells (54.9/10 HPF). Cholangiocarcinomas contained a heterogeneous amount of TIL, composed mainly of CD3+ T cells with a predominance of CD8+ cells in the tumor tissue (52.6/10 HPF) and of CD4+ cells in the interface region (223.1/10 HPF). CD56+ cells of the innate immune system were scarce. There was no significant difference between hepatocellular or cholangiolar carcinoma. No correlation with the clinicopathological data was seen. CONCLUSION: Liver TIL consists of intratumoral CD8+ T cells and peritumoral CD4+ T cells indepen-dent of histogenetic origin. Different functions of lym-phocytes in these regions seem possible.展开更多

The results indicated that pancreas, when transplanted with liver, could survive for a significant long time (13. 4±1.01 days) than it transplanted alone (9. 2±1.14 days) (P< 0. 05, t test). The interstitial rejection was mild and its rejection grade was significantly different from that of pancreas transplanted alone (P<0. 05, X2 test). The liver, when transplanted with pancreas, regenerated with strong competence and contact structure morphologically compared with liver transplanted alone. We think that pancreas could be immunologically protected against rejection and liver can be nutri-tionalized by pancreas in combined liver and pancreas transplantation.展开更多
