Objective:To investigate the expression of protein kinase C-?(PKC-?)in human ameloblastoma(AB)and its relationship with human telomerase reverse transcriptase(hTERT).Methods:The expression of hTERT mRNA was detected by in situ hybridization and PKC-? protein by immunohistochemistry in 54 cases of AB,7 cases of normal oral mucosa(NOM)and 16 cases of odontogenic keratocyst(OKC).Results:The positive rate of hTERT mRNA in AB,OKC and NOM was 94.4%(51/54),87.5%(14/16)and 14.3%(1/7)(P

Objective:To study the expressions of serum levels of intedeukin-12 (IL-12),interferon-γ (IFN-γ),erythropoietin (EPO) and ferritin in patients with acute leukemia and its clinical significance.Methods:76 patients with acute leukemia who were treated in our hospital from July 2015 to July 2016 were selected as the observation group,including 31 cases of newly diagnosed group,25 cases of remission group and 20 cases of relapse group.And another 76 cases who had taken the physical examination in our hospital were selected as the control group.Then the levels of serum IL-12,IFN-γ,EPO and ferritin in patients were observed and compared between the two groups.Results:The levels of IL-12 and IFN-γ in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,and the levels of EPO and ferritin were significantly higher than those of the control group (P <0.05).The levels of serum IL-12 and IFN-γ in the untreated group and the relapse group were significantly lower than those of the remission group [(84.21± 5.43)pg/mL,(98.7± 7.98)pg/mL VS(112.43± 10.21) pg/mL,(38.54± 3.56)pg/mL,(49.87± 4.02)pg/mL VS(108.32± 8.43)pg/mL](P <0.05),and the levels of EPO and ferritin were significantly higher than those of the remission group [(402.32± 42.31) mIU/mL (321.58± 30.21)mIU/mL VS (98.21 ± 9.45) mIU/mLM (653.21 ± 54.24) ng/mLM (512.87 ± 43.45)ng/mL VS (342.15 ± 25.12)ng/mL] (P<0.05).Conclusion:The serum levels of IL-12 and IFN-γ in patients with acute leukemia were lower,and the expression of EPO and ferritin was higher,and the disease and prognosis could be evaluated by monitoring the changes of these indexes.
