Chinese Journal of Digestive Endoscopy 2011;28(7):372-374
Objective To explore the diagnostic values of bile cytology obtained in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and blood tumor markers for malignant bile duct obstruction.Methods From August 2005 to April 2009, bile cytology and blood tumor markers measurement were performed in 47 cases with bile duct obstruction, in which 39 cases were confirmed to be malignant and 8 were benign. Results Malignant cells were found in bile from 26 of 39 malignant obstruction (66. 7% ), and serum CA19-9 was positive in 28 (71.8%). No malignant cells were detected in bile cytology from 8 cases with benign obstruction (with a specificity of 100% ) and serum CA19-9 was negative in 7 (87.5%). In 26 patients with cholangiocarcinoma, serum CA19-9 was positive in 18 (69. 2% ). For bile cytology and blood tumor markers test, sensitivity of parallel combination was 89. 7%, and the specificity of serial combination was 100. 0%. Conclusion Bile cytology testing during ERCP can provide the pathological evidence for malignant bile duct obstruction. The sensitivity is improved by combination tests of bile cytology and blood tumor markers.

Objective To investigate the effects and potential mechanism of irinotecan (CPT-11), an antitumor drug, on human colorectal cancer cell line HT-29 and its impact on 4-amion pyridine (4-AP), a kalium ion channel blocker. Methods The effects of CPT-11, 4-AP and combination of two drugs on proliferation and invasion of HT-29 cells were measured by MTT and Transwell assay respectively. The impact of CPT-11 or 4-AP on cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry with Annexin-V and PI staining. The current of ATP sensitive potassium ion (IKATP) was measured by patch clamp. Results The CPT-11 could inhibit proliferation of HT-29 cells at dose from 1.0 to 64.0 μg/ml in dose-and time-dependent manners. Whereas the above effect was enhanced when CPT-11 combined with 4-AP (1.0 mmol/L). The administration of CPT-11 (16.0 μg/ml) or 4-AP (1.0 mmol/L) significantly induced the cell apoptosis and inhibited the invasion of HT-29 cells, furthermore, these effects could be enhanced by combination of two drugs. And the different concentrations of CPT-11 reduced the IKATP of cell membrane in negative dose-dependent manner. Conclusions The effects of CPT-11 on HT-29 cells, such as reducing proliferation and invasion as well as inducing the apoptosis, can be enhanced by 4-AP, which may be related to inhibition of ATP-sensitive potassium channels.
