Methods Immunohistochemistry SP method was used to detect the expression of GLUT1 and Ki-67 protein in epithelial ovarian tumor tissues from 119 patients diagnosed in our hospital from January 2000 to June 2008. Results The expressions of GLUT1 and Ki-67 had local or abroad higher expressions in the borderline and malignant epithelial ovarian tumor, and the expressive intensity was different. In benign tumors, the expression was negative. The expressive intensity of GLUT1 and Ki-67 had correlation with the grade, stage, and prognosis in malignant tumors. The expressive intensity of GLUT1 had no correlation with the type of malignant tumors, while Ki-67 related to the pathological types. Conclusion The expressions of GLUT1 and Ki-67 have relativity. The expressive intensity of GLUT1 and Ki-67 relates to the character and proliferation of epithelial ovarian tumors. The combined detection GLUT1 and Ki-67 is helpful to know the character of epithelial ovarian tumors, the malignant degree and biologic behavior of ovarian carcinoma, which is useful in estimating the character and prognosis of epithelial ovarian tumors.
Objective To study the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into control group and experimental group. 3′MeDAB was administrated into rats to establish the experimental model of hepatocarcinoma. The expressions of PCNA of different phases were detected by immunohistochemistry and the liver pathologic changes were observed by optical microscope. Results The process of canceration was divided into three stages: inflammation, proliferative fibrosis and hepatic carcinoma. The expression of PCNA firstly presented in the oval cells that located in the portal area at the stage of inflammation, and a part of PCNA were hyperexpressed in the portal area. The expression rate of PCNA in the middle phase of inflammatory stage was higher than that of any other phases but declined later. Yet, when it came to the stage of hepatic carcinoma, the rate increased again. Conclusion Under the experimental circumstance when liver cancer is caused by the carcinogenic agent, PCNA may be firstly expressed in the oval cells, and the dynamic expression of PCNA may be an indicator for the early diagnosis of hepatocarcinogenesis.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the expression of PCNA in gastric cancer and its relationship with telomerase activity of peritoneal washings and peritoneal dissemination, and to compare the efficacy of telomerase activity and cytology of peritoneal washings for prediction of peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer. MethodsTelomeric repeated amplification protocol (TRAP)enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to measure the telomerase activity of peritoneal washings collected from 60 patients with gastric cancer. Exfoliate cytologic analysis of the corresponding samples was used for comparison.Expression of PCNA was measured with immunohistochemical staining.Their relationship with clinicopathologic features were evaluated. ResultsThe positive rate of telomerase activity in peritoneal washing collected from patients with gastric cancer was 41.7%,which well related to serosal invasion, histology types, depth of infiltration and peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer. The positive rate of telomerase activity increased with the increased depth of infiltration and serosal involvement areas (P＜0.05).The positive rate of exfoliative cytology was 25.0%, which was obviously high in the group with macroscopic peritoneal metastasis (the group of P1-3). The positive rate of exfoliative cytology also increased with the increased depth of infiltration and serosal involvement areas (P＜0.05). Although the positive rate of telomerase activity in peritoneal washing collected from patients with gastric cancer was not significantly higher than that of exfoliative cytology in general, it was significantly higher than that of exfoliative cytology in the group of pT4, P1-3 and undifferentiated type.The PCNA proliferation index (PI) of positive telomerase activity group was significantly higher than that of negative. The PCNA PI was significantly higher in the group of P1-3 and serosal invasion thanthat of P0 and without serosal invasion. ConclusionTo detect telomerase activity in peritoneal washings and to detect tumor cells by cytologic method are useful to predict subclinical metastasis to the peritoneum in patients with gastric cancer,but telomerase activity is more sensitive than the other one.Telomerase activity is well related to proliferating activity of gastric cancer,which was the very important reason of peritoneal metastasis and serosal invasion.
【Abstract】Objective To explore the dynamic expression of TNF-α and VEGF in the development of esophageal varices in rats with portal hypertension. Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. In the experimental group, a two-stage ligation of portal vein plus ligation of the left adrenal vein was performed.After establishment of the model, the expression of TNF-α、VEGF and PCNA in the lower esophagus was detected with immunohistochemical SP technique on 7 d、14 d、21 d and comparision of these data with control group was performed respectively. In the control group, a sham-operation was performed, was also divided.Results The portal venous pressure in the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control, so did the vessel number and the total vascular area of the submucosal veins in the lower esophagus. Compared with the control subgroups, the expression of TNF-α and VEGF on the 21 d subgroup was ber, while PCNA was ber on the 14 d and 21 d. Conclusion In the development of esophageal varices of portal hypertension, VEGF possibly plays a role in the varices developemt, and TNF-α may be responsible for the damage of esophageal mucosa.
ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between nuclear factor κB (NFκB) and the occurrence, metastasis, and treatment of colon cancer. MethodsThe literature on the structure and the property of molecular biology of NFκB, the relationship between NFκB and apopotosis, malignant tumor and colon cancer were reviewed.ResultsNFκB had action of antiapopotosis. The occurrence of malignant tumor had close relation with the oncogene by NFκB, the metastasis of malignant tumor was that cell of cancer escaped the killing and supervising of immunity by NFκB. NFκB affected the occurrence and metastasis of colon cancer by regulating cmyc, Cox2, ICAM1.Conclusion NFκB has important action in the occurrence and metastasis of colon cancer. It will become a new target of treatment.
ObjectiveTo study the expression and significance of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and argyrophilia nucleolar organizer regions (AgNORs) in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and carcinoma adjacent mucosa (CAM).MethodsThe expression of PCNA in 48 cases of colorectal carcinoma tissue, CAM and 10 cases of normal mucosa was detected by immunohistochemistry techniques. AgNORs was determined with argyrophilia stain. ResultsThe PCNAlabeling index (PCNALI) and AgNORs count in CRC were higher than that in CAM and normal mucosa(P＜0.01).The PCNALI in Dukes C and D stage was higher than that in Dukes A(P＜0.05). The AgNORs count in 3 cmCAM was higher than 6 cmCAM (P＜0.01) and normal mucosa(P＜0.05). ConclusionSome cells proliferative activity were abnormal in CAM. It indicates that CAM is in an unstable premalignant state, which might have some correlation with the relapse of colorectal carcinoma.
ObjectiveTo study the expression of survivin protein in primary hepatocellular carcinoma(PHC) and its relationship to the proliferation of the tumor cells and prognosis of PHC. MethodsThe expression of survivin protein and the proliferation of tumor cells marked by proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in 48 cases of PHC were determined by immunohistochemical method. ResultsThe survivin protein was expressed in 31 of 48 cases of PHC (64.6%). The expression of PCNA was significantly higher in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with positive survivin expression than in HCC with negative survivin expression. The patients with positive survivin expression had the worse prognosis than those with negative survivin expression. ConclusionThe expression of survivin may play an important role in the proliferation of PHC cells and closely associate with the prognosis of PHC, and probably become the prognostic factor and an important target of therapy.
ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in colorectal cancer and its relationship with metastasis and recurrence. MethodsParaffinembedded specimens from 59 patients with colorectal cancer, 16 patients with adenomas and 12 normal colonic tissues were examined and compared by SP immunohistochemical method. ResultsThe positive rate of VEGF in colorectal cancer were significantly higher than that in adenomas (P＜0.05). The positive rate of VEGF in Dukes A and B stage of colorectal cancer were significantly higher than those in Dukes C and D (P＜0.05). Expression of VEGF in postoperative recurrence group was markedly higher than that in the group with no recurrence (P＜0.05). Proliferative activity expression suggested that the poorer the differentiation, the more PCNA increased in case of lymphnode or hepatic metastasis. The PCNA showed marked difference between postoperative and nonpostoperative recurrences (P＜0.05). Conclusion The expression of VEGF and PCNA is closely related to the invasion and metastasis of tumor during the operation. The increased VEGF and high PCNA implies that there may be some potential metastasis present.
Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of proliferation cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) antisense oligonucleotides mediated by liposome transfection on hepatocellular carcinoma cell proliferation. MethodsThe antisense oligonucleotides were complementary to 18mer sequences next to the start codon of PCNA mRNA sequences. The human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Bel7404 was treated with antisense oligonucleotides. The inhibition of proliferation was estimated by MTT method. We compared the deference between the liposome mediated transfection technique and direct transfection technique. ResultsThe cell proliferation was inhibited effectively by antisense oligonucleotides. A sense sequence oligomer showed no effect.Liposome mediated transfection could enhance the inhibitory effect. Conclusion Liposome mediated transfection could enhance the inhibitory effect of PCNA antisense oligonucleotides on hepatocellular carcinoma cell proliferation.
Objective To explore the value of expression of carcinomaassociated antigens in early diagnosis and predicting prognosis in gallbladder carcinoma. MethodsThe expression of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA50), Ecadherin (ECD) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in 10 cases of cholecystitis, 10 cases of gallbladder adenomas and 50 cases of gallbladder carcinomas were detected by immunohistochemistry. ResultsThe positive rate of CEA, CA50 and PCNA labeling index (LI) in gallbladder carcinomas were significantly higher than that of gallbladder adenomas and cholecystitis (P＜0.05 and P＜0.01). The positive rate of ECD in gallbladder carcinomas, especially with metastasis, was significantly lower than that of gallbladder adenomas and cholecystitis (P＜0.05). The 3year survival rate was significantly lower in gallbladder carcinomas with CEA and PCNA overexpression (P＜0.05), the 3year survival rate in patients with ECD positive tumors was higher than that of those with negative tumors (P＜0.05). Conclusion The detection of CEA, CA50 and PCNA is useful for early diagnosis of malignant change in gallbladder adenomas and gallbladder carcinomas. Therefore, the CEA, PCNA and ECD might be useful for predicting prognosis of gallbladder carcinomas.
