Objective To explore the relationship between CD146(MCAM),microvessel density(MVD)in renal cell carcinoma(RCC) and its clinic-pathology,and to explore their correlation with clinic-pathologic parameter of RCC. Methods Immunohistochemisty was employed to determine the expression of CD146 and MVD in 43 RCC tissues and 20 normal control renal tissues. Results The positive expression of CD146 in RCC(90.7 ％,39/43) was remarkably higher than that in normal renal tissue(30.0 ％,6/20)(x2=27.77,P＜0.05).The expression of CD146 was not correlated with the category of RCC (x2=1.37,all P ＞0.05),but had a significant correlation to(the tumor volume x2=7.57)clinical stage(r=0.62) and metastasis of RCC(x2=19.99,P＜0.05). The MVD of RCC [(78.00±23.10)/200HP]was significantly higher than that of normal renal tissue [(23.05±7.93)/200HP].The MVD of CD146 was not correlated with the tumor volume and category of RCC (t=1.33,t=1.46,au P＞ 0.05),but had a significant correlation to clinical stage and metastasis of RCC (t=2.37,t=2.10,P＜ 0.05). There was a positive correlation between expression of CD146 and MVD in RCC(r=0.74,P＜0.05). Conclusion The overexpression of CD146 in RCC has a significant relation with tumor angiogenesis.The expression of CD146 and angiogenesis might serve as an important indicator of the development, progress and metastasis of RCC.

Objective To establish a multidrug resistance cell line of human bladder tumor and study its characteristics and mechanism of muhidrug resistance. Methods Human bladder tumor cell line T24 was induced to muhidrug resistance cell line T24/ADM by intermittent administration of high dose ADM. The multidrug resistance to multianticancer agents of the ceils was evaluated by MTT assay; the expression of MDR gene was assessed by RT-PCR and P-gp expression was determined by flow cytometry. Results T24/ ADM resisted to many anti-tumor agents, and its IC50 of ADM was 16.3 times higher than that of T24. Significant overexpression of MDR gene and p-gp of the multidrug resistant cells were detected. Conclusion T24/ADM is a human muhidrug-resistant cell line, and it's drug resistance relates to the overexpression of MDR gene and p-gp.

Objective To study the effects of sensitized dendritic cells in the treatment of bladder tumor and further discuss the mechanism of this immunotherapy. Methods 44 female F344 rats, which irrigated N-methyl-N-nitrosourea into bladders every other week for a total of five doses, were induced to bladder tumor. They were treated subcutaneously with either PBS, unsensitized DC, freeze thawing supernatant of tumor cells, or sensitized DC respectively every week for a total of four times. In the fifteenth week, their bladders were weighted and harvested for observation by naked eye and microscope, their blood was harvested for examination CTL by FCM. Results The weight of bladders in sensitized DC group was lower than those in PBS group, unsensitized DC group and freeze thawing supernatant of bladder tumor cells group (P<0.05). The stages of bladder tumor in sensitized DC group were statistically descended compared with those in PBS group (P <0.05). The CD+3 T cells in sensitized DC group was lower than those in PBS group, unsensitized DC group and freeze thawing supernatant of bladder tumor cells group (P <0.05). The CD+3 CD+8 CD+28 T cells in sensitized DC group was higher than those in PBS group, unsensitized DC group and freeze thawing supematant of bladder tumor cells group(P <0.001). Conclusion Sensitized DC injecting subcutaneously can reduce the stages of F344 rats' bladder tumor, Unsensitized DC injecting subcutaneously has not effect in the treatment of bladder tumor;, while the effect of freeze thawing supematant of tumor cells injecting subcutaneously is not well. The mechanism of sensitized DC in the treatment of blader tumor is that DC plays an immunol killing role by presenting antigen, stimulating CTL.

Objective To investigate the expression of TLR4 mRNA and NF-κB p65 in colorectal carcinomas and adjacent normal colon tissue, and evaluate their roles in the pathogenesis and development in colorectal carcinoma. Methods Sixty-three colorectal carcinoma samples and respective adjacent normal colon tissue samples ( well differentiated : 23 cases; moderately differentiated: 17 cases; poorly differentiated:20 cases; other differentiated type: 3 cases; lymph node metastasis: 27 cases; no lymph node metastasis:36 cases; Dukes A: 18cases;Dukes B: 14 cases Dukes C: 22 cases; Dukes D: 9 cases) were collected. The expression of TLR4 mRNA in colorectal carcinomas and adjacent tissue were detected by RT-PCR. The expression of NF-κB p65 was detected by WB. Results The expression of TLR4 mRNA in colorectal carcinomas and adjacent tissue were 86.42 ± 15.16 and 32.74 ± 9.44. It was significantly higher in carcinoma tissue than that in adjacent tissue ( t = 22.354, P ＜ 0.01 ). The expression of TLR4 mRNA in well, moderately and poorly differentiated coiorectal carcinomas were 69.58 ± 11.27, 64.57 ± 13.91 and 97.12 ± 15.44 respectively. TLR4 mRNA in poorly differentiated colorectal carcinomas was significantly higher than that in well, moderately differentiated ones ( t = 11.304 and 12.223, P ＜ 0.01 ). There was no difference between lymph node metastatic carcinomas ( 89.91 ± 13.33 ) and carcinomas without metastasis (81.16±13.59,t =0.959,P＞0.05). The expression of TLR4 mRNA in the Dukes A stage tumors (59.05±11.66) was lower than that in Dukes B(90.34 ±0.08),C(91.41 ± 15.21), D(101.46 ±17.43), respectively ( t = 8.708,9.664,9.525, P ＜ 0.05 ). The expression of NF-κB p65 in colorectal carcinoma(0.63 ±0.11) was significant higher than that in adjacent tissue(0.34 ±0.08,t = 18.266,P ＜0.01 ). The expression of NF-κB p65 in well, moderately and poorly differentiated colorectal carcinomas were 0.46 ± 0.09, 0.72 ± 0.11 and 0.77 ± 0.14, respectively. The experssion of NF-κB p65 in well differentiated colorectal carcinomas was obviously lower than the woderately and poorly differentiated carcinomas (t = 11.223 and 10.875, P ＜0.01 ). There was significant difference between the expression of p65 in lymph node metastatic carcinomas(0.82 ± 0.17) and non-metastatic carcinomas(0.57 ± 0.12, t =18.269,P＜0.05). The expression of NF-κB p65 in Dukes A colorectal carcinomas (0.39 ± 0.06) was lower compared with the Dukes B(0.72 ±0.12), C(0.69 ±0.14) and D carcinomas(0.76 ±0.13,t =10.442, 9.889 and 9.721, P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusions The enhanced expression of TLR4/NF-κB p65 are closely associate with clinical stage and pathologic grade. NF-κB p65 may be an molecular marker of lymph node metastatic. The increased expression of TLR4/NF-κB p65 promote the pathogenesis and development of colorectal carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the renal toxicity of vancomycin hydrochloride and irbesartan tablets using the zebrafish model. Methods After construction of AB zebrafish kidney model, the fish were treated with drug after fertilization 2 days (2 dpf) to 5 dpf. At the end of the experiment, the number of renal edema zebrafish was counted in each experimental group to evaluate the renal toxicity of drugs. Results The zebrafish development was normal and no obvious toxicity at the dose of 16?4 ng/fish (1/10 MNLD) for vancomycin, and zebrafish renal edema occurred rate was 3?3%, 10% and 10% respectively at the dose of 54?7 ng/fish (1/3 MNLD), 164 ng/fish (MNLD) and 273 ng/fish ( LD10 ) with the death rate of 0%, 0% and 16?7%, respectively, which indicated that there was significant renal toxicity of vancomycin at the dose of 54?7 ng/fish (1/3MNLD) to 273 ng/fish (LD10). Irbesartan didn’t induce renal toxicity at the dose of 8?3 μg/mL (1/10 MNLC) to 91 μg/mL (LC10). Conclusions The zebrafish model of renal toxicity can be used for the early evaluation of drug renal toxicity and we made evaluation of the renal toxicity of vancomycin and irbesartan with this model.
