1.Study on the relationship between the expression of CA242 and CD_(44v6) and their clinicopathologic significance in gastric carcinoma
Cancer Research and Clinic 2009;21(12):815-817
Objective To investigate the expression of CA242 and CD_(44v6) protein in gastric cancer (GC) and its clinical significance. Methods Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of CA242 and CD_(44v6) protein in 120 cases of GC, 30 cases of gastric epithelial dysplasia and 20 cases of normal gastric mucosa. The pathological feature of GC and clinical follow-up data was also analysed. Results The positive rate of CA242 and CD_(44v6) was 79.2 % and 81.7 %, respectively in primary GC. The positive rate of CA242 and CD_(44v6) in GC was higher than that in epithelial dysplasia and normal gastric mucosa (P <0.05). The expression of CA242 and CD_(44v6) was closely related to infiltration of serosa, metastasis of lymph node and prognosis of patients (P <0.05). Conclusion These data suggest that the expression of CA242 and CD_(44v6)is closely related to carcinogenesis, metastasis and survival rate in GC. CA242 and CD_(44v6) may be prognostic indicators of GC.

Objective:To study the inhibitory effect of E1A gene on the growth of tumors in nude mice implanted with nasopharygeal carcinoma CNE2 cells and its promotion effect on the racliosensitivity of CNE2-implanted tumors, and to investigate the related mechanism. Methods: E1A gene was transfected into CNE2 cells using adenovirus system, and sta-ble E1A positive clones were established. The inhibitory effect of E1A on tumor formation-ability of CNE2 cells was ob-served in nude mice. The efficacy of E1A gene therapy with or without radiotherapy against CNE2 cell-implanted tumors was evaluated. The effect of E1A gene therapy on the expression of P53 was detected by RT-PCR. Results: CNE2 cells stably transfected with E1A gene (CNE2-Ad-E1A) were successfully established. The tumor formation time was later and tumor size was smaller in CNE2-Ad-E1A cell-implanted mice compared with those in CNE2 cell- and CNE2-Ad-β-gal cell-implanted mice (CNE2 cells stably transfected with Ad-β-gal). Radiotherapy, E1A gene therapy and E1A gene + radio-therapy all suppressed the growth of implanted tumors, with the tumor suppression rates being (60.32±5.34) %, (70.53±6.12) %, and (97.15±4.87) % , respectively. E1A gene therapy significantly increased the expression of P53 gene in tumor tissues. Conclusion: E1A can inhibit the growth of tumors in mice implanted with nasopharygeal carcinoma cells, and enhance its sensitivity to radiotherapy, which may be related to the increased expression of P53 gene in tumor tissues.

Objective:To observe the dynamic changes in serum gastroanteric hormones in patients with stroke complicating stress upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage in acute stage,the changes in acidity,and the changes in gastric empty and to investigate the pathogenetic link of stress pathological change of gastric mucous membrane in patients with stroke(Zhongzangfu,ZZF,中脏腑).Methods:In 20 cases with acute ZZF (Glasgow coma score 6-12 scores) who were all complicating upper gastroenteric bleeding within 24 hours of attack,the levels of motilin(MTL),somatostation(SS),and gastruins(GAS) were measured by radioimmunoassay at the first day (within 24 hours) and the fourth day (within 72-96 hours) respectively meanwhile the gastratube was plased and kept within 24 hours of attack to dynamically observe the pH of gastric juice and the condition of gastric emptying.Results:In comparison with control group the MTL level was significantly increased in patients at the first day of attack (P<0.05),the SS level significantly decreased (P<0.01),and the GSA level had not significant difference (P>0.05).Otherwise the pH (2.87±0.90) of gastric juice in comparison with control group has not significant difference (P>0.05).Among patients in 17 cases the gastric emptying time was prolonged.Even at the fourth day in patients the MTL level was still significantly increased (P<0.01),SS level decreased (P<0.05),and GAS level increased (P<0.01).Conclusions:The upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage in patients with acute ZZF is tightly associated with the changes in MTL and SS but the changes in GAS and gastric pH are not main factor.

Objective To analyze the early warning indicators of tuberculous peritonitis (TBP)in patients with cirrhotic ascites.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 62 patients with cirrhotic ascites hospitalized in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2010 to December 2012.The chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test were used for uni-variate analysis,while the logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis.Results There were significant differences between TBP group and non-TBP group in sex,history of primary peritonitis,erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),serum tuberculosis antibody, percentage of lymphocytes in ascites (≥50%),and prothrombin activity (PTA)(P<0.05 for all).The odds ratios (ORs)of history of primary peritonitis,PTA,ESR,and percentage of lymphocytes in ascites (≥50%)for development of TBP in patients with cirrhotic ascites were 1.933,3.205,2.716,and 11.701,respectively (P<0.05 for all),and the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve were 0.831,0.815,0.775,and 0.935,respectively (P<0.05 for all).Conclusion History of primary peritonitis,PTA,ESR,and per-centage of lymphocytes in ascites (≥50%)are the early warning indicators of TBP in patients with cirrhotic ascites;these early warning in-dicators,especially percentage of lymphocytes in ascites (≥50%),have good predictive values.

Objective To study the effect of E1A gene on the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells and its mechanism. Methods Ad-E1A gene was transfected into human NPC cells (CNE2), then the positive clones (CNE2-Ad-E1A) were identified by RT-PCR. CNE2 cells, CNE2 cells transfected with Ad-β-gal (CNE2-Ad-β-gal) and CNE2-Ad-E1A cells were irradiated with 0 Gy,2 Gy,4 Gy,6 Gy and 8 Gy respectively using 6 MV X-ray. Clone forming assays were carried out, cell survival curves were drawn and the sensitivity enhancing ratio (SER) was calculated. The redistributions of cell cy-cle were analyzed by flow cytometry. RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of wtp53. Results RT-PCR confirmed that E1A gene had been integTated into positively transfected cells and stably expressed. Cell survival curves showed that the SER of D0,Dq and SF_2 value was 1.37, 1.95 and 1.46 in CNE2-Ad-E1A cells. The D_0,D_q and SF_2 value was 1.57 Gy,1.82 Gy, 0.89 in CNE-2 cells and 1.53 Gy,1.78 Gy,0.82 in CNE2-Ad-β-gal cells, respectively. The G_2/M arrest was shown in CNE2-Ad-E1A cells. Moreover, the expression of wtp53 gene was markedly enhanced in Ad-E1A-CNE2 cells. Conclusions E1A gene can ef-fectively enhance the radiosensitivity of human NPC cells, which may be associated the enhancement of wt-p53 expression and G_2/M arrest.

Objective To investigate the effect of El A gene on the radiosensitivity of human laryngeal carcinoma cells and its correlated mechanisms. Methods The Ad-E1A and Ad-β-gal were amplifieated in Hek293 cells, extracted by freezing (-80℃) and thawing(37℃) repeatedly (3 times) , purificated by the method of density gradient of CsC1 and titrated by plaque assay method. Then they were transfected into human laryngeal carcinoma cells (Hep-2) and authenticated by RT-PCR. The radiosensitivity of Hep-2 cells transfeeted with or without El A were studied by cell surviral curve. Finally we investigated the correlated mechanisms including cell apoptosis studied by flow cytometry and VEGF content studied by RT-PCR. Resuits The radiosensitivity of Hep-2 cells transfected with El A was intensified, Do and Dq were lowered and α was increased. Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate of cells with E1A or with El A and radiotherapy was increased. The VEGF content of the cells transfeeted with E1 A or treated by radiotherapy was decreased, which reached the lowest level when the cells were treated with the both mathods. Conclusions E1 A gene can intensify the radiosensitivity and contribute to the apoptosis of human laryngeal carcinoma cells. El A gene and radiotherapy can markedly decrease the VEGF content.
