Comparison between canine and porcine models of chronic deep venous thrombosis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To first induce chronic deep venous thrombosis in the left iliac veins of canines and porcines and then compare these two models to validate endovascular treatment devices.

Methods

Thrombin and fibrinogen were used to produce a solid thrombus in the left iliac veins of a stenosis model. The researchers used venous angiography and histological staining to investigate the progression of thrombosis.

Results

A left iliac vein thrombus was successfully formed in all experimental animals, including six Labrador dogs and three Bama miniature pigs, and there was minimal surgical bleeding. All dogs survived until 90 days, and three pigs died on Days 29, 33, and 58.

Conclusion

The researchers first established the models and then observed the progression of chronic deep venous thrombosis of the iliac vein in large animals for up to 90 days. Dogs are better suited for chronic deep venous thrombosis models due to their uncomplicated anatomy, excellent obedience, and proneness to physical activity compared with pigs.

Project description:SummaryPeople with cirrhosis of the liver are at risk for complications that can worsen their quality of life and increase morbidity and mortality. Contrary to previous beliefs, cirrhosis does not protect against the development of thromboembolic events, and cirrhotic patients may have higher rates of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).Background and aimsThe study of chronic venous disease and its impact on patients with cirrhosis is unknown in the literature and may be an important fact since this condition also had impact on quality of life and morbidity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of DVT (Deep Venous thrombosis) in outpatients with cirrhosis and the degree of chronic venous insufficiency, evaluating possible correlations between clinical and laboratory aspects of cirrhotic patients with these pathologies.MethodsPatients with cirrhosis were evaluated in the outpatient clinic of the Liver Transplantation and Hepatology Service of HC-FMUSP from November 2018 to November 2022, with clinical evaluation, venous disease questionnaires, data collection of imaging and laboratory tests, and venous color Doppler ultrasound. The information was analyzed by the University of São Paulo (USP) Statistics Department.ResultsThere was a prevalence of 7.6% of DVT in studied patients, VCSS score 6.73 and severe CEAP classification (C4-6) 32.1%. There was no association of DVT with qualitative variables by the Fisher test such as Child Turcotte Pugh Scale (CTP) (p = 0.890), dichotomized INR values (p = 0.804), etiology of cirrhosis (p = 0.650) and chronic kidney disease (p > 0.999), nor with quantitative variables by t-student's such as age (p = 0.974), Body Mass Index (BMI) (p = 0.997), MELD score (p = 0.555), Albumin (p = 0.150) and Platelets (p = 0.403). We found that as the severity of ascites increases, there is an increase in the proportion of patients classified in the category indicating more severe clinical manifestations of chronic venous disease (C4 to C6). The mean age (54 years) was higher in patients with DVT than in those without. The mean BMI of patients without DVT (25.7 kg/m2) is lower than that of patients with DVT (27.0 kg/m2). The prevalence of DVT is higher in patients with thrombophilia (20.0%) than in those without (7.0%). This suggests an association between the two variables. The descriptive measures of the MELD score, the cirrhosis scale used for liver transplant waiting lists, did not indicate an association of this scale with the occurrence of DVT.ConclusionThe incidence of VTE (Venous Thromboembolic Events) and CVD (Chronic Venous Disease) within the sample surpassed that of the general population; nevertheless, more studies are required to validate these results. Concerning venous thromboembolism, no correlation was observed between the variables within the sample and the augmented risk of VTE. Regarding chronic venous disease, studies have shown that edema and orthostatism are correlated with increased severity of CVD on the VCSS scales. Statistical dispersion methods suggest that patients with higher BMI and more severe liver disease (according to the Child-Pugh score) are more likely to experience worsening of CVD. About chronic venous disease, studies have shown that edema and orthostatism are correlated with increased severity of CVD on the VCSS scales.

Project description:Purpose: To explore the possible pathogenesis of venous thromboembolism from the perspective of circRNAs. Methods: The thrombus model of inferior vena cava in SD rats was established by stenosis method. Peripheral blood samples of DVT rats were collected at 1h, 6h,12h and 3d, which were sequenced with Illumina circRNAs and mRNA. The differential circRNAs and mRNA were analyzed by STEM analysis software. Clusters that can reflect the evolution of thrombus were selected for in-depth analysis, and circRNAs and mRNA were screened according to the pathway enrichment analysis of the selected clusters. Real time fluorescent quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used to verify and determine the candidate circRNAs and mRNA. The function of target circRNA was verified in DVT rats. The interacting miRNAs of circRNAs and mRNA were predicted by online database respectively. Candidate miRNAs were identified by integrating the related information of miRNAs and verified by qPCR. Results:The SD rat model of deep venous thrombosis was successfully established by the stenosis method. In model group, there were 736, 3691, 3406 and 2639 circRNAs up-regulated and 944, 327, 318 and 397 circRNAs down-regulated at 1h, 6h, 12h and 3d, respectively. Compared with Sham group, 169, 885, 298 and 500 mRNA were up-regulated and 231, 291,75 and 73 mRNA were down-regulated at 1h, 6h, 12h and 3d in model group, respectively. STEM analysis found that cluster 45 was similar to thrombus development. The pathway related to platelet function was selected in cluster 45, and 10 circrRNAs and 4 interacting mRNAs were selected for qPCR verification by combining the gene in platelet pathway and annotation gene of cluster 45 and mRNA-circRNA interaction network. According to qPCR results and whether ID is found in rat circRNA database (CIRCpedia-V2), CBT15_circR_3235 (ID in circpedia-v2: rno_CIRCpedia_1953) is determined as the target circRNA. In vivo，knockdown of rno_CIRCpedia_1953 attenuates the formation of DVT in rats. The potential target miRNAs of rno_CIRCpedia_1953 and Tuba4a were predicted by using online miRDB and miRWalk databases respectively, and rno-miR-3543, rno-miR-320-5p and rno-miR-26b-3p are preliminarily identified as potential target miRNAs that rno_CIRCpedia_1953 may combine to play the ceRNA mechanism. Conclusions: Animal model of DVT in rats was successfully established by stenosis method. High-throughput sequencing analysis of circRNAs showed that circRNAs participated in the evolution of DVT. According to STEM functional analysis of mRNA sequencing, a target circRNA rno_CIRCpedia _1953 was screened, verified and identified. rno_CIRCpedia_1953 may participate in the development of DVT by acting as miRNA molecular sponge.
