Objective To study the expression of high molecular weight cytokeratin (CK34βE12) in breast carcinoma and the relationship between the high molecular weight cytokeratin expression and patient's prognosis. Methods We detected the high molecular weight cytokeratin expression in 100 patient's of breast cancer tissues and paracancerous breast tissue in 30 cases immunohistochemically. The relationship between the expression of high molecular weight cytokeratin in breast cancer tissues and age, menstrual status, estrogen receptor expression, progesterone receptor expression, histology grading, TNM staging, pathology type, and patient survival was analyzed. Results (1) There was no significant correlation between high molecular weight cytokeratin expression of breast -cancer tissues and age, menstrual status, estrogen receptor expression, progesterone receptor expression (all P>0.05). But the correlation was statistically significant between that expression and histology grading, TNM staging, pathology category (all P<0.05). (2) By univariate analysis, the 5-year disease-free survival rate in patients with negative expression was lower than those with positive expression(P<0.05). By multivariate analysis, the expression of high molecular weight cytokeratin was unfavorably related with tumor free survival. Conclusion The expression of high molecular weight cytokeratin in breast carcinoma tissues was correlated with biologic malignancies of breast cancer, the negative high molecular weight cytokeratin expression of breast cancer tissues predicts poor prognosis.

Deubiquitinating enzymes, reversing protein ubiquitination, most of the researches focused on the ifeld of molecular biology. However, it have not yet attracted enough attention in translational medicine research. In fact, target proteins of deubiquitinating enzymes affect the tumor progression through various ways, for example, cell apoptosis and autophagy, the link between inlfammation and cancer, tumor hypoxia, signal transduction, cell cycle regulation and DNA damage. This paper reviewed the research progress on the relations between deubiquitinating enzymes and the correlated factors of tumor.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the significance of CK19 mRNA monitoring in peripheral blood of breast cancer patients.MethodsPeripheral blood samples were collected from 137 breast cancer patients preoperatively,one day post-operation,7 days,1,3,6,12,18,and 24 months after operation.RTPCR was used to detect CK19 mRNA expression.The relationships were analyzed between CK19 mRNA expression and treatment result, between CK19 mRNA expression and clinicopathological parameters.ResultsThere was no significant difference between the level of CK19 mRNA as tested preoperatively,and 1,7 days postoperatively(P ＞ 0.05 ).From one month and thereafter,CK 19 mRNA decreased significantly when compared with that immediate perioperatives ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Postoperative peripheral CK19 mRNA expression increased in those found with recurrent or metastasized tumors ( P ＜ 0.01 ). CK19 mRNA expression does not correlate with patient's menstrual status,estrogen receptor expression,progesterone receptor expression,HER-2 expression and Ki67 proliferation expression (P ＞ 0.05 ). But there was statistically significant correlation between CK19 mRNA expression and tumour size,histology grading,pathological type,lymph node metastasis ( P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsIn breast cancer patients peripheral blood CK19 mRNA expression is correlated with risk clinicopathological parameters, and increases in patients with postoperative recurrence and tumor metastasis.

Objective To explore the expression of COX-2,PD-ECGF and VEGF in gastric carcinoma tissue,and analyze and identify the relationship between the expression and tumor angiogenesis together with biological behaviour in gastric carcinoma.Methods ElivisionTM immunohistochemical method was performed to detect the expression of COX-2,PD-ECGF,VEGF and CD34,and evaluate the value of MVD in surgically resected gastric carcinoma specimens and biopsy tissues under gastroscope,including normal gastric mucosa tissues, metaplasia tissues and gastric mucosal atypical hyperplasia tissues. Clinicopathologic data of patients were analyzed retrospectively. Results The positive expression of COX-2, PD-ECGF,VEGF and MVD in gastric carcinoma were significantly higher than those in normal gastric mucosa, metaplasia or gastric mucosal atypical hyperplasia,and also their expression and MVD were closely related to lymph node metastasis and depth of invasion. The MVD in the groups of COX-2,PD-ECGF,VEGF positive-expression were significantly higher than those in negative-expression groups respectively. There were positive correlations among the expression of COX-2,PD-ECGF and VEGF in gastric carcinoma. MVD increased significantly when COX-2, PD-ECGF and VEGF coexpressed. Conclusion The expression of COX-2,PD-ECGF,VEGF and tumor angiogenesis participated in the genesis,invasion and metastasis of human gastric carcinoma.COX-2,PD-ECGF and VEGF participated in the tumor angiogenesis of gastric carcinoma. In the process of tumor angiogenesis and expression in gastric carcinoma, COX-2, PD-ECGF and VEGF could strengthen the effectiveness each other.They could strengthen the effective ness of tumor angiogenesis when they coexpressed. They could be selected as targets for tumor anti-angiogenesis treatment.

Objective To investigate whether conventional protein kinase C (cPKC ) βⅡ-interacting collapsin response mediator protein-2 (CRMP-2) provides neuroprotection against cerebral ischemic (I) injuries. Methods Male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into normoxic control (Nor) , HPC, Nor + Sham, HPC + Sham, Nor + I and HPC + I groups (n = 6 per group). Using our HPC and MCAO mouse models, we applied immunoprecipita-tion, two-dimensional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry to characterize cPKCβⅡ-interacting proteins and combined with SDS-PAGE and Western blot to quantitatively analyze CRMP-2 phosphorylation and degradation levels in the brain of mice after HPC and MCAO. Results The expression level of 10 cPKCβⅡ-interacting proteins changed obviously in cerebral cortex of HPC mice when compared with Nor group. One of these proteins, CRMP-2 protein level increased in particulate fraction and decreased in cytosolic fraction of cerebral cortex of HPC mice. CRMP-2 phosphorylation level in ischemic core (Ic) of cerebral cortex decreased significantly ( P < 0. 05 , n = 6) as compared with that of Nor + sham group, but CRMP-2 phosphorylation level in HPC +I group increased significantly as compared with that of Nor +I group ( P < 0. 05, n = 6). In ischemic cortex, CRMP-2 degradation (proteolysis) was observed as the appearance of 55 ku breakdown products (BDP). However, the CRMP-2 degradation level, BDPs products decreased significantly in penumbra ( P) of ischemic cortex from HPC +I group when we compared with that of Nor +I group (P < 0. 05, n = 6 ). Conclusion CRMP-2 is involved in attenuating the decrease of CRMP-2 phosphorylation in ischemic core and in inhibiting its degradation in penumbra of cerebral cortex of mice thereby to lessen the ischemic injuries.
