Background: Liver cirrhosis results from many forms of chronic damage, characterized by accumulation of extracellular matrix. The present study aimed to explore a potential non-invasive biomarker and its mechanism in the progression of liver cirrhosis.Methods: Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset (GSE15654, n = 216) was analyzed to screen genes associated with progression of liver cirrhosis. A total of 181 plasma samples, including healthy control (HC, n = 20), chronic hepatitis B (CHB, n = 77) and HBV-related liver cirrhosis (LC, n = 84), were enrolled for validation. In vitro and in vivo experiments were employed for the mechanistic investigation. Results: GEO dataset analysis showed that relatively low mRNA-expression of C –C motif chemokine ligand 16 (CCL16) was associated with elevated Child-Pugh score ( P = 0.034) and worse prognosis ( P = 0.025). Plasma CCL16 level decreased in a stepwise patt, with a median concentration of 10.29, 6.57 and 4.47 ng/mL in the HC, CHB and LC groups, respectively ( P < 0.001). Low plasma CCL16 was significantly related to hepatic dysfunction both in the CHB and LC groups ( P < 0.05). Combination of CCL16 and ALT showed improved distinguishing capability for LC compared to either alone. In vitro , CCL16 expression was downregulated by lipopolysaccharide and hypoxia. Overexpression of CCL16 from human normal liver cell line (LO2) reduced the extracellular matrix associated proteins (Col1 and Col4) in human hepatic stellate cell line (LX-2). In vivo , the pathological feature of cirrhosis was alleviated by the hepatocyte- specific expression of CCL16. Conclusions: CCL16 could be a feasible plasma marker to predict the occurrence and progression of liver cirrhosis. CCL16 might impact liver cirrhosis through inactivating hepatic stellate cells.

摘 要:项目管理对建筑业的发展起到了无法替代的作用。但是由于建筑业一方面为人类建筑美好的居住空间,同时又对环境产生一定的破坏。因此,在人们日益重视环境问题的近日,可持续发展越来越成为人们关注的热点。  项目进行可持续性研究,造成了许多项目仅仅是某些领导政绩的标志,由此造成了资源的巨大浪费和环境的严重破坏。如何从可持续发展的角度来推广和发展项目管理的组织方法和实施方法,是当今项目管理领域的一个很有意

摘要:随着社会的进步和人类对工作、生活环境要求的提高,随着经济的发展,一批建筑规模庞大,集多种功能于一身的综合性建筑物在城市中兴建起来,人们对给排水工程的设计已除了要求有合理、先进的工艺流程,能生产出高质量的水,还需要整个厂区有一个整洁优美的环境和赏心悦目的建筑形态。这就必须对给排水工程的原有设计方法和程序思路有一个较大的改变,应把设计的全过程看成是一个发展的、开放的、变化的动态体系,以确保设计出
