Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), CDK4 and P16 on rat hepatocellular carcinoma by millimeter wave radiation. Methods Fourty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups. Group one to three were feeded by diethylnitrosamine (DEN). Group one was a tumor control group. In group two and three the liver was directly radiated by 35.8 GHz, 100 mW/cm 2 millimeter wave for 20 min, twice a week for 10 or 5 weeks. Group four was a normal control radiated group. Fourteen weeks later all rats were sacrificed to undergo serological test and immunohistochemical stain of liver. Results The serum levels of ? glutamyltransferase in group two and three were lower than that in group one. Adenocarcinoma was only existed in group one by histological examination of liver tissue. Other groups of DEN exposure only had basophilic and eosinophilic nodules. Liver tissue expression of PCNA and CDK4 in group two and three were significantly lower than in group one, but the expression of P16 in group two and three was higher than that in group one. Conclusions Radiation with millimeter wave can partially inhibit cell proliferation and suppress the DEN induced hepatocellular carcinoma in rats.
