  • Clinical Significance of Peripheral Blood Mammary Gland Globin Testing in Breast Cancer Patients

    ObjectiveTo test the expressions of human mammary gland globin (hMAM) mRNA in the peripheral blood of breast cancer and breast benign lesions patients, try to provide the theory basis for the choice of breast cancer molecular marker. MethodsPolymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology was used to detect the expressions of hMAM mRNA in peripheral blood of 78 cases of breast cancer patients, 15 cases of hyperplasia of mammary gland, and 15 cases of breast fibroadenoma. The relationship between the expressions of hMAM-mRNA in peripheral blood of breast cancer patients with patient's age, tumor size, pathological type, tumor stage, axillary lymph node metastasis, and the ER, PR and HER-2 status were analyzed. ResultsThe expressions of hMAM-mRNA in peripheral blood were not detected in breast hyperplasia and breast fibroadenoma patients, but the peripheral blood hMAM-mRNA expression rate in breast cancer patients was 48.72% (38/78), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=12.357, P=0.000). The expression of peripheral blood hMAM mRNA was not related to the patient's age, tumor size, pathological type, and ER, PR and HER-2 status (P > 0.05), but the expression of peripheral blood hMAM mRNA was related to the clinical staging of tumor (Z=-2.214, P=0.027) and lymph node metastasis status (Z=-2.754, P=0.006). ConclusionPeripheral blood hMAM-mRNA detected is a sign of breast cancer, further research is needed to confirm whether hMAM mRNA detection in peripheral blood correlates with poor prognosis of breast cancer patients.

  • Expression of Metaherin and Its Clinical Significance for Hepatitis B Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma

    ObjectiveTo explore expressions of the metaherin (MTDH) mRNA and its protein in hepatitis B related hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and its clinical significance. MethodsSeventy two tissues of patients with hepa-titis B related hepatocellular carcinoma who were treated in Affiliated Taihe Hospital of Hubei Medical University from Jul. 2012 to Oct. 2013 were collected retrospectively. Quantitative PCR (Q-PCR) and Western blot methods were used to detect the expression levels of MTDH mRNA and its protein in 10 cases of hepatitis B related hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and pericarcinoma tissues. Besides, immunohistochemistry was used to determine the expression of MTDH protein in 72 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma tissues, then the relationship of expression of MTDH protein and clinico-pathological features was explored. ResultsThe expression levels of MTDH mRNA and its protein in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues were both higher than those of pericarcinoma tissues (8.50±0.84 vs. 4.55±0.81, t=10.797, P=0.000; 0.65± 0.24 vs. 0.25±0.16,t=6.375, P=0.013). The MTDH protein was positively expressed in 42 cases (58.3%) and negatively expressed in 30 cases (41.7%) of hepatocellular carcinoma tissues. The results of logistic regression showed that,MTHD protein was up-regulated in patients with category Ⅲ of Edmondson grade (OR=4.783, 95% CI:2.663-11.918, P=0.020), microvascular invasion (OR=37.790, 95% CI:2.227-99.434, P=0.005), and lymph node metastasis (OR=7.332, 95% CI:3.325-30.669, P=0.023). ConclusionExpressions of MTDH mRNA and its protein are both higher in hepatitis B related hepatocellular carcinoma tissue, which are correlated with poor prognosis.

  • Expression of Mdm2 in ERα-Positive Breast Cancer Tissue and Its Biologic Effect on MCF-7 Cells

    ObjectiveTo explore expression of Mdm2 in the estrogen receptor α (ERα)-positive breast cancer tissues and fibroadenoma of breast tissues, and to explore the effect of MDM2-siRNA on cell proliferation, colony formation, and apoptosis for MCF-7 cells. Methods① Seventy eight ERα-positive breast cancer patients identified by histopathological examination, who underwent surgery in our hospital from June 2012 to October 2015, as well as 10 fibroadenoma of breast patients underwent surgery in the same period, were collected retrospectively to determine the expression of Mdm2, then explore the relationship between the expression of Mdm2 and clinical pathological characteristics of ERα-positive breast cancer patients. ② MCF-7 cells were divided to MDM2-siRNA group (added with MDM2-siRNA), negative control group (added with negative siRNA), and blank control group (added without any reagent). Expression of Mdm2, cell proliferation rate, number of colony formation, and apoptosis rate were determined in the MCF-7 cells of 3 groups. Results① No one of fibroadenoma of breast patients was found positive expression of Mdm2 (0/10), and 38 of 78 ERα-positive breast cancer patients were found the positive expression of Mdm2 (48.7%), which is higher than that of fibroadenoma of breast tissues (χ2=12.357, P=0.000). In ERα-positive breast cancer patients, expression of Mdm2 was related with TNM staging and number of metastasic lymph node (P < 0.050), the positive expression rate of Mdm2 was higher in patients with later TNM staging or more metastasic lymph node. ② Cell proliferation rates on 2, 3, and 4 days after transfection, expression level of Mdm2, and number of colony formation were all lower (P < 0.050), but the apoptosis rate was higher in MDM2-siRNA group (P < 0.050), comparing with negative control group and blank control group. But there was no significant difference between negative control group and blank control group on aforementioned indexes (P > 0.050). ConclusionMdm2 is a diagnostic marker in ERα-positive breast cancer patients, and treatment targeting it might has a certain therapeutic value.

  • Clinical Study of Infiltration of Breast Cancer Surface Skin

    ObjectiveTo study the infiltration situation of breast cancer surface skin, and explore the characteristics of infiltration of breast cancer surface skin at the molecular level. MethodsNested reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction technique was used to detect the expressions of human mammaglobin(hMAM)mRNA in 15 cases of hyperplasia of mammary gland tissues, 15 cases of breast fibroadenoma tissues, and 60 cases of breast cancer tissues and their corresponding tumor surface skins. The relationship of the hMAM mRNA expression in the surface skins of breast cancer tissue to its clinicopathologic characteristics was analyzed. ResultsThe hMAM mRNA positive expressions in the breast fibroadenoma tissues, hyperplasia of mammary gland tissues, and breast cancer tissues were 40.00%(6/15), 53.33%(8/15), and 83.33%(50/60), respectively, which in the breast cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in the breast fibroadenoma tissues or hyperplasia of mammary gland tissues(P < 0.05). There was no hMAM mRNA positive expression in the surface skin of fibroadenoma or hyperplasia of mammary gland tissues, but there was 3(5.00%)cases of the hMAM mRNA positive expressions in the breast cancer surface skin. The hMAM mRNA positive expression in the breast cancer surface skin was not related with the patient age, tumor diameter, and tumor staging(P > 0.05), but was related with axillary lymph nodes metastasis and distance from tumor to nipple less than 4 cm(P < 0.05). ConclusionsThe hMAM mRNA highly expresses in breast cancer tissue and it has a certain value in the diagnosis of infiltration of breast cancer surface skin. The patients with axillary lymph node metastasis and distance from tumor to nipple less than 4 cm are more susceptible to infiltration of breast cancer surface skin.
