Abstract:
?Objective:To study apoptosis and apoptotic mechanisms of buccal carcinoma cells(BCCs) induced by anticancer agents.Methods:34 cases of buccal carcinoma were treated with pinyangmycin or pinyangmycin combined with other anticancer agents.The samples of the lesions were examined by in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TDT) mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) before and after chemotherapy.Apoptotic cells were detected in parraffin embedded buccal cancer specimens from the patients.Apoptotic index (AI) were respectively quantified in prechemotherapy and postchemotherapy specimens of each patient.Fas expression was examined by SP immunohistochemical staining in each specimen.Results:The mean of AI in the samples of prechemotherapy and in those of postchemotherapy were 0.38 and 0.91 ( P
