Two hundred specimens of the "transitional mucosa" of colorectal carcinoma were studied with mucohistochemical methods of HID/AB and PAT/KOH/PAS,immunohistochemical methods of MC3,CEA,lectin receptor PNA,UEA-1 and DBA,and scanning electron microscopy.10 specimens of normal colonic mucosa.130 specimens of colorectal carcinoma,155 specimens of various types of colorectal adenoma and polyp,and 24 sepcimens of normal colonic mucosa of fetus aged 3 to 5 months were also examined to serve as controls.It was found that in every stage of the malignant deterioration of the colorectal mucosa,there was significant difference between the mucohistochemical changes and the immunohistochemical changes(P

The expression of A,B and H blood antigens were studied in 100 sepcimens of transitional-cell carcinoma with monoclonal antibodies and ABC immunohisto-chemical assay.And the patients were followed up.It was found that A,B and H antigens were positive in 63% of the cases.The rates of mortality and ecurrence were lower in the positive cases than in the negative ones(P

Objective To explore the relationship between proliferation activity-related factors and androgen receptor (AR) expression in 113 cases of human prostate cancer (PCa). Methods AR and the proliferation activity-related factors (PCNA, Ki67, EGFR) in PCa were detected by immunohistochemistry and light/(electron) microscopy. Results Cell proliferation in AR-negative groups of PCa was significantly stronger than in AR-positive groups. Conclusion AR aberrant expression may promote proliferative ability of PCa, cell growth and heterogeneity significantly, which may be one of reasons that PCa is difficult to be cured.
