Objective To evaluate the clinical application of a muhiprobe FISH (multicolor fluorescence in situ hy-bridization,M-FISH) assay in voided urine specimens for detection of bladder cancer and compare the results with those afforded by urinary cytology.Methods Voided urine specimens from 100 cancer patients with or without surgery and 10 patients with prostate hyperplasia were obtained for urinary cytology and FISH.FISH was performed using a mixture of fluorescent labeler DNA probes for the centromeric regions of chromosomes 3,7,and 17 and 9p21 region.Cystoscopy with biopsy or tumor resection was performed in all patients and compared the pathological results with the cytological and FISH findings.Results The sensitivity of M-FISH were 75.6% for low grade tumors,100% for high grade tumors,with overall sensitivity of 85.5%.Urinary cytology affords an overall sensitivity of 62.9% (33.3% for low grade tumors,96.0% for high grade tumors).Significant difference in overall sensitivity was observed between M-FISH and urinary cytology (P＜0.05).The specificity of M-FISH and urinary cytology was 84.6% and 87.8% respectively.No significant difference in specificity was observed between M-FISH and urinary cytology.Conclusion M-FISH improves the sensitivity obtained with urinary cytology for bladder cancer detection with similar specificity,so can detect all high grade infiltrating tumors patients.

Objective To detect the expressions of Numb and α-catenin in the gastric cancer and matched normal gastric mucosa,and to analyze their relationship with clinicopathological factors of gastric cancer and explore their roles in gastric carcinogenesis and progression.Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expressions of Numb and α-catenin in 109 cases of tumor specimens and 97 cases of matched normal gastric mucosa.The correlations between Numb,α-catenin and clinicopathological factors were analyzed.Results The positive rates of Numb and α-catenin in gastric cancer were significantly lower than those in normal gastric mucosa (60.6％ ∶ 100.0％,x2 =48.361,P =0.000;76.1％ ∶ 100.0％,x2 =26.480,P=0.000).The expression of Numb protein was correlated with Lauren type (x2 =17.018,P =0.000) and tubular adenocarcinoma differentiation (x2 =17.586,P =0.000).The expression of α-catenin protein was correlated with Borrmann type (x2 =6.700,P =0.035),Lauren type (x2 =11.098,P =0.001),tubular adenocarcinoma differentiation (x2 =8.203,P =0.017) and lymph node metastasis (x2 =6.402,P =0.011).The expressions of Numb and α-catenin were statistically correlated in 109 cases of gastric cancer (rk =0.184,P =0.028).Conclusion Compared with normal gastric mucosa,both Numb and α-catenin expressions are down-regulated and the two expressions are correlated in gastric cancer.Numb and α-catenin may be involved in the regulation of histological differentiation of gastric cancer by certain passages,Numb protein may be adjusted by α-catenin pathway which is involved in Wnt-β-catenin pathway,and thus plays an important role in promoting cell proliferation,invasion and metastasis in human gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the protective mechanism of Interleukin 33 (IL-33) in preventing myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury in rats. Methods A rat model with myocardial I/R with 32the adult male SD rats , which were randomly divided into 4 groups: SO group , I/R group , IL-33 + I/R group , SB230580 + IL-33 + I/R group. The levels of LDH, CK, TNF-α, IL-6, HMGB1, Bcl-2, total caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3 and P-P38 were detected. Results After reperfusion, IL-33 significantly decreased the levels of serum LDH and CK and the expression of TNF-α, IL-6 , cleaved caspase-3 , but significantly increased the expressions of Bcl-2, p-P38 (P < 0.05). SB230580 attenuated the protective role of IL-33 on myocardial I/R in a certain degree. Conclusions IL-33 may prevent myocardial I/R injury via inhibiting inflammation and cardiocyteapoptosis by way of P38 MAPK signaling pathway.
