2.VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR AND TUMOR ANGIOGENESIS
Chinese Journal of Bases and Clinics in General Surgery 2001;8(3):205-207
Objective To evaluate the effect of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on tumor angiogenesis, and its usage in tumor therapy. Methods The recent literatures about VEGF and angiogenesis were reviewed and analyzed. The advances of VEGF study were summarized. The effects of anti-angiogenesis in tumor biological therapy were introduced.Results Angiogenesis had been identified as an important factor for promoting tumor growth. VEGF was a basic and pivotal factor in tumor angiogenesis. The anti-angiogenesis treatments aimed at VEGF, including the applications of VEGF inhibitor and gene therapy of adenovirus medium, had got great progress. Conclusion VEGF is a leading factor of tumor angiogenesis, the anti-angiogenesis therapy aimed at VEGF has probably provided a new chance to malignant tumor treatment.

Objective To explore the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-3 (PAI-3) in normal adult skin. Methods Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR were used to detect the expressions of PAI-3 and uPA. Results mRNA of PAI-3 and uPA were detected. PAI-3 was mainly expressed in stratum basale, stratum spinosum and stratum granulosum, and its expression enhanced in the well differentiated keratinocytes of the epidermis. uPA was located in basal layer. Conclusion PAI-3 exists in normal adult skin and is related with the differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes.

Objective To study the regulating roles of PAI 2 in the differentiation mechanism of the human epidermis. Methods Human skins were take from the early, middle and late human embryos respectively and observed with immunocytochemistry and in situ hybridization techniques. The cell culture and dot blot were also used in the observation of the materials from late embryo. Results 1 PAI 2 exhibits a very high experssion in the development of embryonic period, with the highest level in the middle embryonic phase while the transcripts of PAI 2 still keep a rather high level in the late human embryonic stage. 2 PAI 2 is mainly localized in the superficial, more differentiatied layers of the epidermis.3 PAI 2 is localizated in peripheral cytoplasm of the vitro or vivo keratinocyte.Conclusion PAI 2 is involved in the regulation of the keratinocyte differentiation.

Objective Making the fusion protein of IgG-binding peptide with enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP) and determining its bioactivity.Methods The enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP) gene was cloned into pEZZ 18 vector containing ZZ peptide gene to construct expression vector pSpA-EGFP-His.The fusion protein was expressed in E.coliDH5? and its bioactivity was detected by competitive ELISA and fluorescence properties.Results The fusion protein migrated at approximately 42kD in SDS-PAGE,which correspond to the theoretical molecular weight.The spectra of SpA-EGFP fusion protein was similar to what was reported.SpA-EGFP competed with SpA-Peroxidase to bind IgG.Conclusion The plasmid pSpA-EGFP-His correctly expressed in E.coli.The fusion protein retains the bifunctional effects of EGFP and IgG-binding activity.

Objective To summarize the experience in diagnosis and treatment of primary splenic neoplasm (PSN). Methods The clinical data of 31 patients with PSN treated in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Results Amongst the patients, 25 were diagnosed as PSN postoperatively. Fifteen out of the 19 patients with benignancy were treated with splenectomy, and the others underwent partial splenectomy or tumor excision. Eleven out of the 12 patients with malignancy received splenectomy (including two by excision of pancreatic body and tail), and the other one underwent biopsy alone. The pathological types were as follows: varieties of cyst in 11, angiocavemoma in 4, inflammatory pseudotumor in 2, cavernous lymphangioma in 1, cystic degeratin of liomyoma in 1, malignant lymphoma and lymphsarcoma in 6, hemangiosarcoma in 3, fibrosarcoma in 1, liomyosarcoma in 1 and malignant fibrous histiocytoma in 1. Three patients with malignancy survived for 5 years. The reason was that they received radical splenectomy in combination with chemotherapy or radiotherapy and immunotherapy. Conclusions PSN should be diagnosed mainly according to clinical manifestations and image examination. The differentiation between benignancy and malignancy depends on CT, hemangiography and determination of seros AKP and ? GT levels. Early diagnosis, radical operation and comprehensive treatment are important for improving the prognosis of PSN.

Objective To study the changes of ventilatory function of young soldiers coming from different regions during cold - tol-erance training. Methods The recruited young soldiers were divided into 2 groups:Group Ⅰ (50 coming from the northern region)and group Ⅱ (50 coming from the southern region) . According to the new training outline of cold -tolerance in winter,their ventilatory func-tions were tested before training and 60 days after training. Ventilatory functions were compared between smoking and non - smoking sub-jects. Results 25% forced expiratory flow (FEF25%) , 50% forced expiratory flow (FEF50%) and 75% forced expiratory flow (FEF75 %) were significant different between two groups before the course of training (P < 0.05). After 60 days, ventilatory functions of two groups were improved significantly as compared with that before training (P <0.01 ,P <0.05). There was no significant difference in ventilatory between two groups after 60 days of training (P > 0.05). There was significant difference in partial small airway function be-tween smoking and non - smoking subjects. Conclusion Cold air could decline the small airway function of soldiers coming from south-ern region before training. Cold -tolerance training has significant influence on soldiers' ventilatory function. Long- term and heavy smok-ing could decline the small airway function.

Objective To study the expression of ?-catenin and cox-2 in the bulge cells of hair follicle and investigate the relationship of their expression on cell proliferation. Methods The hair follicle was prepared from the resected cheek skin of 20 Wistar rats aged 7 days. The bulge cells were resected from the intact hair follicle and cultured in vitro. Immunocytochemical technique (ICC) was applied to detect ?-catenin and cox-2 expression in bulge cells at culture day 3, 5, 8, 13. Results ?-catenin and cox-2 strongly expressed in bulge cells and the expression correlated with the culture days. ?-catenin appeared in both plasma and nucleus, while cox-2 only in nucleus. Conclusion ?-catenin and cox-2 were correlated with bulge cells proliferation, and cox-2 might be the target gene of ?-catenin signaling pathway in nucleus.

Objective To discuss the imaging features of the localized fibrous tumor of pleura(LFTP).Methods 10 cases of LFTPproved patholgically were underwent CT scanning,while MRI scanning was performed in 3 cases.The imaging findings of LFTP wereanalysed.Results 9 cases were benign tumors and 1 case was malignant tumor.The main CT manifestations were single soft tissue massadhering to the pleural surface,clearly boundary,homogeneous or unhomogeneous density,obvious homogeneous or non-uniformityenhancement."Pleura mass hat"was characteristic appearance located the pleura mass.The mass formed acute angle or obtuse angle with the adjacent pleura,which was related to mass size and shape.MRI manifestations were hypointense or isointense on T_1WI and T_2WI,non-uniformity signal.1 case of giant LFTP showed scattered in disorder and clutter signal on T_2WI.Inside tumor peduncle of the giant LFTP was connected with the pericardium.Conclusion CT is a main imaging diagnostic technique for LFTP,while MRI is commonly superior to CT in localizing the mass and showing inner characteristics for the bigger pleural masses.The appearance of pleuraL tumor peduncle is an important sign in diagnosis of LFTP.
