By using electron microscopy histochemical method, light microscopy histochemical method and microspectrophoto meter, we studied the ACP activity of the principal cell of epididymal duct in the postnatal 10-90 days rats. The results revealed that ACP activity increased with the increase days. We also observed the following phenomena: in the postnatal 10 days rats the ACP activity was only localized on GERL and vesicles around GERL; by in the postnatal 19 days rats, the ACP activity was localized on lysosome; and 35 days later, the ACP was also localized on the saccules on the forming face of Golgi complex. The significance of the above changes in ACP activity of the principal cell of epididymal duct in postnatal rats was discussed in this paper.

Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2010;33(15):19-21
Objective To study relationship of expression of Survivin and cyclooxygenase(COX)-2 in the tissue of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with differentiation, lymph node metastasis and clinical stage. Method The expression of Survivin and COX-2 were detected by immunohistochemical SP staining in the specimens of 43 cases of NSCLC and 20 cases of para-cancerous lung tissue. Results The positive rate of Survivin and COX-2 was 67.4% (29/43) and 55.8% (24/43) respectively in NSCLC,was 0 respectively in the para-cancerous lung tissue. Compared with para-cancerous lung tissue,there was statistically significant difference(P< 0.01). Both Survivin and COX-2 had significantly higher expression in NSCLC with poor differentiation,lymph node metastasis and clinical stage of Ⅱ-Ⅲ than those with well differentiation,without metastasis and clinical stage of Ⅰ (P <0.05). Conclusion The expression of Survivin and COX-2 are high in NSCLC,they both have relationship with differentiation,lymph node metastasis and clinical stage of NSCLC.
