Objective To explore the relationship between the protein expression of PCNA and biological behavior science in benignant pituita ry adenoma.Methods The protein expression of PCNA in 58 patien ts with pituitary adenoma were determined by ABC immunohistochemical method.Results The PCNA index was significantly higher in the patients with recurrent pituitary adenomas than in nonrecurrent ones(P<0.05).There was no significantly difference between bleeding and unbleeding group,cystic and noncystic group,large type and unlarge type group(P>0.05 respectively) .Conclusion The protein expressions of PCNA reflected the proli ferative activties of pituitary adenomas, and could be taken as one of the indic ators to evaluate recurrence and prognosis of the tumor.

Objective To construct an overexpression lentiviral vector of CD44 and obtain an androgen-dependent prostate cancer LNCaP cell line with CD44 overexpression.Methods CD44 gene sequence was obtained by PCR amplification.The synthesized oligonucleotides were cloned in the lentiviral vector LV5 after digested with NotI and NsiI enzyme.Recombinant plasmids were verified by enzyme digestion analysis and sequencing,and were transfected into 293T package cells.Supernatant was collected and concentrated to obtain lentivirus solution at a high titer.The titer of virus was identified by multiple proportion dilution methods.Then the recombinant viruses were transfected into LNCaP cells.Results Fluorescence intensity in infected LNCaP cells was increased,detected by a fluorescence microscope.And QRT PCR and Western blot results showed that the expression of CD44 was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Conclusions The overexpression lentiviral vector of CD44 is successfully constructed,and the LNCaP cell line with CD44 overexpression is obtained.

Objective To study the effect of ? interferon in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma after radical nephrectomy. Methods From Jan 1988 to Jan 1998 ,46 cases of renal cell carcinoma were randomized into two groups: the interferon group treated by radical nephrectomy and ? interferon and the control group with radical nephrectomy alone. Results The T lymphocyte subsets CD 3,CD 4,CD 8,the ratio of CD 4/CD 8 were significantly different berfore and after treatment in the interferon group( P

Objective To study the volume of residual urine as related to the surgical indication for BPH. Methods Urodynamic study was carried out in 103 BPH patients who were assigned to group A (no residual urine),group B (residual urine0.05) but significantly different between group C and A or between B and A (P60 ml should be strictly followed.Early surgical intervention should be undertaken if the bladder ontlet obstruction or bladder function deteriorated by BPH causing residual uine.Other causes such as neurogenic should be ruled out before surgery.
