1Increasing the frequency of CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy may decrease risk of death in gastric cancer patients显示文摘AIM: To analyze the correlation between cytokineinduced killer (CIK) cells adoptive immunotherapy and cancer-related death in gastric cancer patients. METHODS: One hundred and fifty-six gastric cancer patients after operation at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were enrolled in this study. Their clinical data including demographic characteristics, operation time, tumor size, pathological type and staging, tumor metastasis, outcome of chemotherapy or CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy, survival time or time of death were collected with a standard structured questionnaire. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the median survival time, and the 2- and 5- year survival rates. Hazard risk (HR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy for gastric cancer were calculated using the two-stage time-dependent covariates Cox model. RESULTS: The survival time of gastric cancer patients was longer after CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy than after chemotherapy (χ 2 = 10.907, P = 0.001). The median survival time of gastric cancer patients was also longer after CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy than after chemotherapy (49 mo vs 27 mo, P < 0.05). The 2- and 5-year survival rates of gastric cancer patients were significantly higher after CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy than after chemotherapy (73.5% vs 52.6%, 40.4% vs 23.9%, P < 0.05). A significant difference was observed in the survival curve for patients who received CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy (0, 1-10, 11-25, and over 25 frequencies) (χ 2 = 14.534, P = 0.002). The frequencies of CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy were significantly related with the decreasing risk of death in gastric cancer patients after adjustment for sex and age of the patients, tumor stage and relapse (HR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.36-0.80) when the first stage Cox model was used to define the subjects who remained alive beyond 36 mo as survivors. However, no correlation was observed between the frequencies of death in CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy and the risk of gastric cancer patients (HR = 1.09, 95% CI: 0.63-0.89) when the second stage Cox model was used to define the subjects who survived for more than 36 mo as survivors. CONCLUSION: The survival time of the gastric cancer patients treated with chemotherapy combined with CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy is significantly longer than that of the patients treated with chemotherapy alone and increasing the frequency of CIK cells adoptive immunotherapy seems to benefit patients more.Jing-Ting Jiang, Chang-Ping Wu, Lu-Jun Chen, Xiao Zheng, Department of Tumor Biological Treatment, Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Changzhou 213003, Jiangsu Province, China Yi-Bei Zhu, Jing Sun, Xue-Guang Zhang, Key Laboratory of Stem Cell of Jiangsu Province, Institute of Biotechnology, Key Laboratory of Clinical Immunology of Jiangsu Province, Soochow University, Suzhou 215123, Jiangsu Province, China Yue-Ping Shen, Wen-Xiang Wei, Department of Medicine, Soochow University, Suzhou 215123, Jiangsu Province, China Bin-Feng Lu, Department of Immunology, University of Pitts- burgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA 15261, United States 2010World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,48:82
2Alterations in metastatic properties of hepatocellular carcinoma cell following H-ras oncogene transfection显示文摘AIM To demonstrate the relationship betweenH-ras oncogene and hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) metastasis.METHODS Activated H-ras oncogene wastransfected into SMMC 7721, a cell line derivedfrom human HCC, by calcium phosphatetransfection method. Some metastasis-relatedparameters were detected in vitro, includingadhesion assay, migration assay, expression ofcollagenase ⅣV (c ⅣV ase) and epidermal growthfactor receptor (EGFR).RESULTS The abilities of H-ras-transfected cellclones in adhesion to laminin (LN) or fibronectin(FN), migration, c Ⅳ ase secretion increasedmarkedly, and the expression of EGFR elevatedmoderately. More importantly, these alterationswere consistent positively with the expressionof p21, the protein product of H-ras oncogene.CONCLUSION H-ras oncogene could inducethe metastatic phenotype of HCC cell in vitro toraise its metastatic potential.Qing Wang~1 Zhi Ying Lin~2 Xiao Li Feng~3 ~1Department of Microbiology,Medical Center of Fudan University.the former Shanghai Medical University,Shanghai 200032,China ~2Liver Cancer Institute,Zhongshan Hospital,Shanghai 200032,China ~3Shanghai Institute of Biochemistry,Academy Sinica,Shanghai 200031,ChinaQing Wang earned master degree from Shanghai Medical University in 1996,now a senior lecturer of microbiology,specialized in the role of oncogcncs on tumor metastasis,having 8 papers published. 2001World Journal of Gastroenterology2001,7,3:48
3Treatment outcomes for different subgroups of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy显示文摘Although many studies have investigated intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC),sample sizes in the reported studies are usually small and different in outcomes in different T and N subgroups are seldom analyzed.Herein,we evaluated the outcomes of NPC patients treated with IMRT and further explored treatment strategy to improve such outcome.We collected clinical data of 865 NPC patients treated with IMRT alone or in combination with chemotherapy,and classified all cases into the following prognostic categories according to different TNM stages:early stage group (T1-2N0-1M0),advanced local disease group (T3-4N0-1M0),advanced nodal disease group (T1-2N2-3M0),and advanced locoregional disease group (T3-4N2-3M0).The 5-year overall survival (OS),local relapse-free survival (LRFS),and distant metastases-free survival (DMFS) were 83.0%,90.4%,and 84.0%,respectively.The early disease group had the lowest treatment failure rate,with a 5-year OS of 95.6%.The advanced local disease group and advanced nodal disease group had similar failure pattern and treatment outcomes as well as similar hazard ratios for death (4.230 and 4.625,respectively).The advanced locoregional disease group had the highest incidence of relapse and death,with a 5-year DMFS and OS of 62.3% and 62.2%,respectively,and a hazard ratio for death of 10.402.Comparing with IMRT alone,IMRT in combination with chemotherapy provided no significant benefit to locoregionally advanced NPC.Our results suggest that the decision of treatment strategy for NPC patients should consider combinations of T and N stages,and that IMRT alone for early stage NPC patients can produce satisfactory results.However,for advanced local,nodal,and locoregional disease groups,a combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy is recommended.Sheng-Fa Su 1,2,3,Fei Han 1,2,Chong Zhao 1,2,Ying Huang 1,2,Chun-Yan Chen 1,2,Wei-Wei Xiao 1,2,Jia-Xin Li 1,2 and Tai-Xiang Lu 1,2 1 State Key Laboratory of Oncology in South China,Guangzhou,Guangdong 510060,P.R.China 2 Department of Radiation Oncology,Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center,Guangzhou,Guangdong 510060,P.R.China 3 Department of Oncology,Guiyang Medical College Hospital,Tumor Hospital of Guizhou,Guiyang,Guizhou 550003,P.R.China. 2011Chinese Journal of Cancer2011,30,8:40
4Morphological and functional changes of mitochondria in apoptotic esophageal carcinoma cells induced by arsenic trioxide显示文摘AIM:To demonstrate that mitochondrial morphological andfunctional changes are an important intermediate link in thecourse of apoptosis in esophageal carcinoma calls inducedby As_2O_3.METHODS:The esophageal carcinoma call line SHEEC1,established in our laboratory,was cultured in 199 growthmedium,supplemented with 100mL·L^(-1)calf serum and3 mol·L^(-1)As_2O_3(the same below).After 2,4,6,12,24 hof drug adding,the SHEECl calls were collected for light-and electron-microscopic examination.The mitochondriawere labeled by Rhodamine fluorescence probe and thefluorescence intensity of the mitochondria was measured byflow cytorneter and cytofluorimetric analysis.Further,themitochondrial transmembrane potential(MTP,ΔΨm)change was also calculated.RESULTS:The mitochondrial morphological change afteradding As_2O_3 could be divided into three stages.In theearly-stage(2-6h)after adding As203,an adaptiveproliferation of mitochondria appeared;in the mid-stage(6-12 h)a degenerative change was observed;and in the late-stage(12-24 h)the mitochondria swelled with outermembrane broken down and then calls death with apoptoticchanges of nucleus.The functional change of themitochondria indicated by fluorescent intensity,whichreflected the MTP status of mitochondria,was in accordancewith morphological change of the mitochondria.Thefluorescent intensity increased at early-stage,decUned inmid-stage and decreased to the lowest in the late-stage.24h after As_2O_3 adding,the cell nucleus showed typicalapoptotic changes.CONCLUSION:Under the inducement of As_2O_3,the earlyapoptotic changes of SHEEC1 cells ware the apparentmorphological and functional changes of mitochondria,afterwards the nucleus changes followed.It is consideredthat changes of mitochondria are an important intermediatelink in the course of apoptosis of esophageal carcinoma cells induced by As_2O_3.Zhong-Ying Shen Jian Shen Qiao-Shan Li Department of Pathology,Medical College of Shantou University,Shantou 515031,Guandong Province,China Cai-Yun Chen Central Lab.Medical College of Shantou University Jiong-Yu Chen Central Lab.of Tumor Hospital,Medical College of Shantou University Yi Zeng Institute of Virology,Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine,Beijing 100052,China 2002World Journal of Gastroenterology2002,8,1:35
5The abnormal expression of retinoic acid receptor-β,p53 and Ki67 protein,n normal,premalignant and malignant esophageal tissues显示文摘AIM: Esophageal cancer remains a significant healthiproblem worldwide. It is important to investigate alterationsin expression of retinoic acid receptor-β, p53 and Ki67proteins in esophageal carcinogenesis.METHODS: To find biomarkers for early identification ofesophageal cancer, we analyzed the retinoic acid receptor-j3,p53 protein and the proliferation marker Ki67 in surgicalspecimens of normal, mildly, and severely dysplastic andmalignant esophageal tissues by in situ hybridization ofRNA and immunohistochemistry.RESULTS: RAR-β was expressed in 94.3 %(33/35) of normalmucosae, 67.8 %(19/28) of the mild, 58.1% (18/31) of thesevere ieaions and 53.2 % (116/218) of tumor samples. RAR-β mRNA was expressed in 62.7 % (42/67), 55.1% (43/78) and29.2 % (7/24) of well, moderated and poorly differentiatedSSCs. The p53 and Ki67 proteins were 5.9 % (2/34) of thenormal mucosa. P53 and Ki67 stained positively in 10.7 % (3/28) and 21.4 % (6/28) of mild dysplasia, and 51.6 %(16/31)and 58. 1% (18/31) of severely dysplasia respectively.Samples from esophageal cancer showed no higher levers ofp53 and Ki67 expression than seen in severely dysplasticlesions. There was significant difference of RAR-β、 p53 andKi67 expression between normal mucosa and dysplatictissue or esophageal cancer.CONCLUSION: Loss of RAR-β expression and acctnulation ofp53 and Ki67 proteins may serve as biomarkers for earlyidentification of esophageal cancer in the high-riskpopulations.Min Xu Sheng-Zu Chen,Department of Nuclear Medcine,Cancer Hospital(Institute),Peking Union Medical College and Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences,Beijing 10002,1,China Yu-Lan Jin Jun Fu Hong Huang Ping Qu Hai-Mei Tian ZhaoYang Liu Wei Zhang,Central Laboratory for Tumor Biology,Cancer Hospital(Institute),Peking Union Medical College and Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences,Beijing 100021,China 2002World Journal of Gastroenterology2002,8,2:34
6Correlation of matrix metalloproteinase suppressor genes RECK,VEGF,and CD105 with angiogenesis and biological behavior in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To explore the expression of reversion inducing cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and endoglin (CD105) protein and its correlation with occurrence, development, invasion and metastasis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS: Streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) immunohisto- chemistry was used to detect expression of RECK and VEGF in 62 cases of ESCC, 31 cases of adjacent atypical hyperplastic epithelium and 62 cases of normal esophageal epithelium. CD105 Mb was used to assess microvessel density (MVD). RESULTS: The expression of RECK was closely correlated with histological grade, infiltrative depth and lymphatic metastasis in ESCC (P < 0.05). The expression of RECK decreased during cancer development: normal esophageal epithelium (85.5%, 53/62), adjacent atypical hyperplastic epithelium (71.0%, 22/31), and carcinoma (59.7%, 37/62). There was a significant difference among the groups (P < 0.05). The expression of VEGF protein was closely correlated with infiltrative depth and lymphatic metastasis in ESCC (P < 0.05). The expression of VEGF protein increased during cancer development: normal esophageal epithelium (29.0%, 18/62), adjacent atypical hyperplastic epithelium (54.8%, 17/31), and carcinoma (67.7%, 42/62). There was a significant difference among the groups (P < 0.05). MVDCD105 increased in accordance with histological grade, butthere was no significant difference (grade Ⅰ, 36.92 ± 10.85; grade Ⅱ, 37.65 ± 9.50; and grade Ⅲ, 38.06 ± 12.19). The MVDCD105 was closely correlated with infiltration and lymphatic metastasis in ESCC (P < 0.05). The expression of RECK was inversely correlated with the expression of VEGF and CD105. CONCLUSION: RECK, VEGF and CD105 play important roles in the infiltration, metastasis and carcinogenesis in esophageal carcinoma. Angiogenesis in ESCC may be promoted by over-expression of CD105.Sheng-Lei Li, Zhi-Hua Zhao, Dong-Ling Gao, Zong-Wen Liu, Qiu-Min Zhao, Jin-Xia Yu, Kui-Sheng Chen, Yun-Han Zhang, Department of Pathology, The First Affiliated Hospital Zhengzhou University He’nan Key Laboratory of Tumor Pathology, Zhengzhou 450052, He’nan Province, China 2007World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,45:30

8Clinicopathologic features, diagnosis and surgical treatment of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in 104 patients显示文摘BACKGROUND: The outcome of surgical treatment of pa- tients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is poor. This study was designed to analyze the relationship between clinicopathologic features and the survival time after opera- tion. METHODS: The operation was performed in 104 patients with mass-forming type ICC at our hospital between No- vember 1996 and May 2000. Seventy-nine patients (76.0%) were followed up successfully. Sixteen clinicopathological variables including age, sex, history of chronic liver di- sease , HBsAg, operation, adjuvant therapy, ascites, lymph node metastasis, invasion of adjacent organs, tumor size, necrosis of tumor, envelope, intrahepatic metastasis, Inter- national Union Against Cancer (UICC) TNM staging, his- tology, and cirrhosis were selected for univariate and multi- variate analyses to evaluate their influence on the prognosis. RESULTS: The accumulative 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rates of the 79 patients were 49.4%, 17.3%, 9.6% respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that sex (P=0.0221), HBsAg (P=0.0115), operation (P=0.0042), adjuvant therapy (P= 0.0389), ascites (P=0.0001), invasion (P=0.0220), intra- hepatic metastasis (P=0.0000) and TNM stage (P= 0.0001) were related to survival time. Multivariate analysis revealed that HBsAg, ascites and TNM stage were signifi- cantly related to prognosis. CONCLUSION: Early diagnosis and treatment and major hepatectomy are essential to improving the results of surgi- cal treatment of ICC patients.Xiao-Hui Fu, Zhao-Hui Tang, Ming Zong, Guang-Shun Yang, Xiao-Ping Yao and Meng-Chao Wu Shanghai, China Department of Comprehensive Therapy of Hepatobi- liary Tumors, Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital, Shanghai 200438, China 2004Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2004,3,2:24

11Telomere and telomerase in the initial stage of immortalization of esophageal epithelial cell显示文摘AIM: To search for the biomarker of cellular immortalization,the telomere length, telomerase activity and its subunits incultured epithelial cells of human fetal esophagus in theprocess of immortalization.METHODS: The transgenic cell line of human fetalesophageal epithelium (SHEE) was established with E6 E7genes of bt man papillomavirus (HPV) type 18 in ourlaboratory. Morphological phenotype of cultured SHEE cellsfrom the 6th to 30th passages, was examined by phasecontrast microscopy, the telomere length was assayed bySouthern blot method, and the activity of telomerase wasanalyzed by telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP).Expressions of subunits of telomerase, hTR and hTERT,were assessed by RT-PCR. DNA content in cell cycle wasdetected by flow cytometry. The cell apoptosis wasexamined by electron microscopy (EM) and TUNEL label.RESULTS: SHEE cells from the 6 th to 10 th passagesshowed cellular proliferation with a good differentiation.From the 12 th to the 16 th passages, many senescent andapoptotic cells appeared, and the telomere length sharplyshortened from 23 kb to 17 kb without expression of hTERTand telornerase activity. At the 20 th passage, SHEE cellsovercame the senescence and apoptosis and restored theirproliferative activity with expression of telomerase andhTERT at low levels, but the telomere length shortenedcontinuously to the lowest of 3 kb. After the 30 th passagecells proliferation was restored by increment of cells at S andG2M phase in the cell cycle end telomerase activity expressedat high levels and with maintenance of telomere length.CONCLUSION: At the early stage of SHEE cells, telomeresare shortened without expression of telomerase and hTERTcausing cellular senescence and cell death. From the 20 thto the 30 th passages, the activation of telomerase andmaintenance of telomere length show a progressive processfor immortalization of esophageal epithelial cells. Theexpression of telomerase may constitute a biomarker fordetection of immortalization of cells.Zhong-Ying Shen Li-Yan Xu Wei-Jia Cai Min-Hua Chen Jian Shen,Department of Tumor Pathology,Medical College of Shantou University,Shantou 515031,Guangdong Province,China En-Min Li,Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology,Medical College of Shantou University,Shantou 515031,Guangdong Province,China Yi Zeng,Institute of Virology,Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine,Beijing 100052,China 2002World Journal of Gastroenterology2002,8,2:21
12Relationship between ABO blood groups and carcinoma of esophagus and cardia in Chaoshan inhabitants of China显示文摘AIM To study the relationship between ABO blood groups and carcinoma of esophagus and cardia in Chaoshan inhebitants of China, which is a unique Littoral high-risk area of esophageal carcinoma in China. The poor communication and transportation in the psst has made Cheoshan a relatively closed area and kept its culture and costure of old China thousend years ago.``METHODS Data on age, sex, ABO blood type and X-rayor psthological diagnose of the pstients with carcinoma of esophagus or cardia were collected from the Tumor Hospital. First Affiliated Hospital, Second Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College; and the Central Hospital of Shantou and the Central Hospital of Jieyang. A total of 6685 pstients with esophageal carcinoma (EC) and 2 955 patients with cardiac cancer (CC) in Chaoshen district were retrospectively assessed for their association with ABO blood groups.``RESULTS The distribution of ABO blood groups in patients with EC or CC was similar to the norrnal local population in Chaoshen. However, blood group B in male patients with CC and in the pstients with carcinoma in the upper third esophagus was 2.3% and 4.7% higher than the corresponding controls. The relative risk B: O was 1. 1415 (P<0.05)and 1 .2696 (P<0.05), respectively. No relationship was found between ABO blood groups and tumor differentiation.``CONCLTUSION ABO blood group B is associated with the incidence of CC in male individuals and carcinona in the upper third esophagus. The distribution of ABO blood groups varies in the different geographical and ethnic groups. As a result, proper controls are very important for such studies.Min Su~1 Shan-Ming Lu~1 Dong-Ping Tian~1 Hu Zhao~1 Xiao-Yun Li~2 De-Rui Li~3 Zhi-Chao Zheng~4 1 Department of Pathology,2 Tumor Hospital,3,4 Second Teaching Hospital,Shantou University Medical College,Shantou 515031,China 2001World Journal of Gastroenterology2001,7,5:20
13Changed clinical aspects of primary liver cancer in China during the past 30 years显示文摘BACKGROUND: Primary liver cancer (PLC) is one of the most frequently seen tumors in China. Thirty years ago, patients with PLC were often detected at relatively late stage, with a palpable mass or marked clinical symptoms and poor prognosis. In the past 30 years, the diagnosis and treatment of PLC have been greatly improved with better prognosis. METHODS: In order to study the changes of PLC during the 30 years, the clinical data of 3250 patients with PLC from 10 medical institutions of China were collected, ana- lyzed , and compared with those of 3254 PLC patients be- fore the 30 years. RESULTS: In the 3250 patients aged 1-80 years, with an average age of 49.1 years, the male to female ratio (2.3:1) was lower than that before the 30 years. 73.5% of the 3250 patients sought medical advice within 3 months after the onset of the disease in contrast to 63.8% before the 30 years. Compared with those patients before the 30 years the symptoms and signs were alleviated generally. The HBsAg positive rate was 81.0%, but the HCV-Ab positive rate was 13.2%. The AFP level in 75% of patients was elevated, but in the remaining 25% was normal. 1912 patients (58.8%) were confirmed pathologically. Among them 1755 patients (91.8%) had hepatocellular carcinoma. The overall resec- tion rate was 46.3%. Those who had early, middle, late stage carcinoma accounted for 29.9%, 51.5%, and 18.6%respectively in contrast to 0.4%, 47.0%, and 52.6% repor- ted before the 30 years. The 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rates of the patients were 66.1%, 39.7%, and 32.5% respectively, whereas 93.5%, 70.1%, and 59.1% for the early stage pa- tients, and 65.3%, 30.5%, and 23.5% for the middle stage patients. The half and 1-year survival rates of the late stage patients were 52.5%, and 14.7%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Comparison with the clinical data before and after the 30 years show that PLC can be diagnosed ear- ly. More PLC patients tend to undergo resection while re- ceiving a better conservative treatment, which ensures a prognosis.Bing-Hui Yang, Jing-Lin Xia, Li-Wen Huang, Zhao-You Tang, Ming-Shan Chen, Jin-Qing Li, An-Min Liang, Qin-Guo Mo, Hui-Shan Lu, Chao-Liu Dai, Lu-Nan Yan, Zhi-Jian Yu, Rong-Sheng Rao, Le-Qun Li, Zhi-Xiong Su, Zhuang-Wei Fang Shanghai, China Liver Cancer Institute & Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai 200032, China Tumor Hospital, Zhongshan University, Guangzhou 510000, China Tumor Hospital, Guangxi Medical Universi- ty, Nanning 530000, China Xiehe Hospital, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou 350000, China Second Hos- pital, Chinese Medical University, Shenyang 110000, China Huaxi Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, China Hospital Affiliated to Nantong Medical University, Nantong 226000 , China Second Hospital, Jiangxi Medical University, Nanchang 330000 , China First Hospital Affiliated to Guangxi Medical University, Nanning 530000 , China People’s Hospital of Hainan Province, Haikou 570000, China 2004Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2004,3,2:20
14Activation of JNK by TPA promotes apoptosis via PKC pathway in gastric cancer cells显示文摘AIM: JNK cascade plays an important role in cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. However, the exact function of JNK cascade for apoptosis induction remains largely unknown. In this study, the role of JNK activation stimulated by TPA in the process of apoptosis induction and its signaling transduction pathway in gastric cancer cells were investigated and determined.METHODS: Expressions of mRNA and protein were detected by Northern blot and Western blot. Transcription activity was measured by transient transfection and CAT assay. Apoptotic cells were displayed through staining the nucleus with DAPI and were observed under fluorescence microscope. The apoptotic index was determined by counting 1000 cells randomly.RESULTS: JNK protein was stimulated rapidly by TPA, and reached its highest peak within 3 hr, then decreased in a time-dependent manner, but the expression level of JNK protein induced by TPA was always keeping higher than that in untreated cells. Similar pattern was seen in c-jun mRNA level induced by TPA. TPA significantly activated the transcriptional activity of activator protein-1 with a TPA-closedependent manner. Furthermore, activation of JNK was mediated through PKC pathway. Treatment of cells with PKC specific inhibitor, Wortmannin, led to repression of JNK even in the presence of TPA. More importantly, all these effects were associated with induction of apoptosis in gastric cancer cells. TPA inducted apoptosis obviously in gastric cancer cells. The apoptotic cells became smaller and rounded, and their nuclei became condensation and fragmentation with brightly stained chromatin. However, suppression of JNK by PKC specific inhibitor, Wortmannin, resulted in the decrease of apoptosis induced by TPA in a time-dependent manner, apoptotic index dramatically decreased from 32.56 % to 8.71%.CONCLUSION: TPA stimulates JNK cascade, including upregulation of JNK protein expression level and c-jun mRNA expression level, and activation of activator protein-1 transcriptional activity. Activation of JNK is mediated through PKC pathway, which has an association with induction of apoptosis by TPA. Thus, activation of JNK via PKC pathway may represent one of important mechanisms for TPA to induce apoptosis in gastric cancer cells.Yan Chen Qiao Wu Si-Yang Song Wen-Jin Su,Key Laboratory of the Ministry of Education for Cell Biology and Tumor Cell Engineering,The School of Life Sciences,Xiamen University,Xiamen,Fujian Province,361005,China 2002World Journal of Gastroenterology2002,8,6:18
15Down-Regulation of CD44 Contributes to the Differentiation of HL-60 Cells Induced by ATRA or HMBA显示文摘CD44 is highly expressed in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Some experiments had shown that it was possible to reverse differentiation blockage in AML cells by CD44 ligation with specific antibodies, indicating that CD44 was closely related to the differentiation of leukemia cells. The differentiation of acute promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60 cells could be induced by all trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA), but so far the mechanism was not demonstrated clearly. In the present study, we investigated whether ATRA or HMBA induced the growth arrest of HL-60 cells by down-regulating the expression of CD44. The results indicated that the proliferation of HL-60 cells was obviously inhibited and the differentiation was induced by both ATRA and HMBA. The decreased expression of CD44 and cyclin E mRNA, and the increased expression of p27 and p21 at mRNA levels were observed. Furthermore, there was a negative correlation between the expression of CD44 and p27. It was concluded that ATRA and HMBA played a role in the differentiation induction of HL-60 cells, which was mediated by the down-regulation of CD44, accompanied by down-regulation of cyclin E, and up-regulation of p27 and p21 mRNA.Jianing Liu1, Gaofeng Bi1, Pei’e Wen1, Weihua Yang1, Xia Ren1, Tianhua Tang1, Chao Xie1, Wei Dong1 and Guosheng Jiang1, 21Department of Hemato-oncology, Institute of Basic Medicine, Shandong Academy of Medical Sciences Key Laboratory for Modern Medicine and Technology of Shandong Province Key Medical Laboratory for Tumor Immunology & Traditional Chinese Medicine Immunology of Shandong Province, Jinan, Shandong 250062, China 2007Cellular & Molecular Immunology2007,4,1:12
16Human papillomavirus DNA and P16~(INK4A) expression in concurrent esophageal and gastric cardia cancers显示文摘AIM:To investigate the relationship between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and concurrent esophagus and gastric cardia cancer from the same patient (CC) and examine the significance of P16 INK4A protein expression.METHODS:Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the presence of HPV type16 (HPV16).The expression of P16 INK4A protein was detected using immunohistochemistry.RESULTS:Among the CC specimens,HPV16-DNA was found in eight cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and five cases of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA),respectively (47% vs 29%),and two of both ESCC and GCA.P16 INK4A was highly expressed in both ESCC and GCA.In the HPV-associated positive CC,higher P16 INK4A expression was observed in the GCA than in the ESCC (75% vs 25%,P < 0.05).CONCLUSION:HPV16 as a correlated risk factor may play an important role in the development of ESCC and GCA.P16 INK4A may be a screening index in the HPVassociated carcinoma of gastric cardia.Guang-Cheng Ding,Tao Guo,Department of Gastroenterology,The First Affiliated Hospital and The Fifth Affiliated Hospital,Zhengzhou University,Zhengzhou 450052,Henan Province,China Jing-Li Ren,Xin Song,Sheng-Li Zhou,Zong-Min Fan,LiDong Wang,Henan Key Laboratory for Esophageal Cancer Research,Department of Gastroenterology,The First Affiliated Hospital,College of Basic Medicine,Zhengzhou University,Zhengzhou 450052,Henan Province,China Fu-Bao Chang,Department of Thoracic Surgery,Linzhou Center Hospital,Linzhou 456500,Henan Province,China Ji-Lin Li,Department of Pathology,Yaocun Esophageal Cancer Hospital,Linzhou 456500,Henan Province,China Ling Yuan,Department of Oncoradiotherapy,Henan Province Tumor Hospital,Zhengzhou 450003,Henan Province,China Yi Zeng,Institute of Virology,Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine,Beijing 100052,China 2010World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,46:11
17Molecular phylogeny of Pneumocystis based on 5.8S rRNA gene and the internal transcribed spacers of rRNA gene sequences显示文摘To clarify the phylogenetic relationships and species status of Pneumocystis, the 5.8S rRNA gene and the internal transcribed spacers (ITS, 1 and 2) of Pneumocystis rRNA derived from rat, gerbil and human were amplified, cloned and sequenced. The genetic distance matrix of six Pneumocystis species compared with other fungi like Taphrina and Saccharomyces indicated that the Pneumocystis genus contained multiple species including Pneumocystis from gerbil. The phylogenetic tree also showed that Pneumocystis from human and monkey formed one group and four rodent Pneumocystis formed another group. Among the four members, Pneumocystis wakefieldiae was most closely related to Pneumocystis murina and Pneumocystis carinii, and was least related to gerbil Pneumocystis.LI ZiHui1,2, FENG XianMin1, LU SiQi1, ZHANG Fan1, WANG FengYun1 & HUANG Song1 1 Department of Pathogenic Biology, Capital Medical University, Beijing 100069, China 2 Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Research Institute, Beijing 101100, China 2008Science China(Life Sciences)2008,51,5:9
18Progressive transformation of immortalized esophageal epithelial cells显示文摘AIM: To investigate the progressive transformation of immortal cells of human fetal esophageal epithelium induced by human papillomavirus, and to examine biological criteria of sequential passage of cells, including cellular phenotype, proliferative rate, telomerase, chromosome and tumorigenicity.METHODS: The SHEE cell series consisted of immortalized embryonic esophageal epithelium which was in malignant transformation when cultivated over sixty passages without co-carcinogens. Cells of the 10th, 31st, 60th and 85th passages were present in progressive development after being transfected with HPV. Cells were cultivated in a culture flask and 24-hole cultural plates. Progressive changes of morphology, cell growth, contact-inhibition, and anchoragedependent growth characteristics were examined by phase contrast microscopy. The cell proliferation rate was assayed by flow cytometry. The modal number of chromosomes was analyzed. HPV18E6E7 was detected by Western blot methods and activities of telomerase were analyzed by TRAP.Tumorigenicity of cells was detected with soft agar plates cultivated and with tumor formation in SCID mice.RESULTS: In morphological examination the 10th passage cells were in good differentiation, the 60th and 85th passages cells were in relatively poor differentiation, and the 31st passage cells had two distinct differentiations. The characteristics of the 85th and 60th passage cells were weakened at contact-inhibition and anchorage-dependent growth. Karyotypes of four stages of cells belonged to hyperdiploid or hypotriploid, and bimodal distribution of chromosomes appeared in the 31st and 60th passage cells. All of these characteristics combined with a increasing trend. The activities of telomerase were expressed in the latter three passages. Four fourths of SCID mice in the 85th passage cells and one fourth of SCID mice in the 60th passage cells developed tumors, but the cells in the 10th and 31st passage displayed no tumor formation.CONCLUSION: In continual cultivation of fetal esophageal epithelial cells with transduction of HPV18E6E7, cells from the 10th to the 85th passage were changed gradually from preimmortal, immortal, precancerous to malignantly transformed stages. All of these changes were in a dynamic progressive process. The establishment of a continuous line of esophageal epithelium may provide a in vitro model of carcinogenesis induced by HPV.Zhong-Ying Shen Li-Yan Xu Min-Hua Chen Jian Shen WeiJia Cai,Department of Tumor Pathology Medical College of Shantou University,Shantou 515031,Guangdong Province,China Yi Zeng,Institute of Virology,Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine.Beijing 100052,China 2002World Journal of Gastroenterology2002,8,6:8
19Roles of PLC-γ2 and PKCα in TPA-induced apoptosis of gastric cancer cells显示文摘AIM: To investigate the roles of PLCγ2 and PKCα in TPA-induced apoptosis of gastric cancer cells.METHODS: Human gastric cancer cell line MGC80-3 was used. Protein expression levels of PLCγ2 and PKCα were detected by Western blot. Protein localization of PLCγ2 and PKCα was shown by immunofluoscence analysis under laserscanning confocal microscope. Apoptotic morphology was observed by DAPI fluorescence staining, and apoptotic index was counted among 1 000 cells randomly.RESULTS: Treatment of gastric cancer cells MGC80-3 with TPA not only up-regulated expression of PLC-γ2 protein,but also induced PLC-γ2 translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. However, this process was not directly associated with apoptosis induction. Further investigation showed that PKCa translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus was correlated with initiation of apoptosis. To explore the inevitable linkage between PLC-γ2 and PKCα during apoptosis induction,PLC inhibitor U73122 was used to block PLC-γ2 translocation,in which neither stimulating PKCα translocation nor inducing apoptosis occurred in MGC80-3 cells. However, when U73122treated cells were exposed to TPA, not only PLC-γ2, but also PKCα was redistributed. On the other hand, when cells were treated with PKC inhibitor alone, PLC-γ2 protein was still located in the cytoplasm. However, redistribution of PLC-γ2 protein occurred in the presence of TPA, no matter whether PKC inhibitor existed or not.CONCLUSION: PLC-γ2 translocation is critical in transmitting TPA signal to its downstream molecule PKCα. As an effector,PKCα directly promotes apoptosis of MGC80-3 cells.Therefore, protein translocation of PLCγ2 and PKCα is critical event in the process of apoptosis induction.Bing Zhang Qiao Wu Xiao-Feng Ye Su Liu Xiao-Feng Lin Mu-Chuan Chen, Key Laboratory of the Ministry of Education for Cell Biology and Tumor Cell Engineering, School of Life Sciences, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361005, Fujian Province, China Bing Zhang, Medical school, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361005, Fujian Province.

20High-yield expression of recombinant SARS coronavirus nudeocapsid protein in methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris显示文摘AIM: Nucleocapsid (N) protein plays an important role in reproduction and pathological reaction of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus (SCoV), the antigenicity of the protein is better than spike (S) protein.This study was to find a highly specific and antigenic recombinant SCoV nucleocapsid (rSCoVN) protein, and to provide a basis for further researches on early diagnosis of SARS.METHODS: Full length cDNA of SCoV nucleocapsid (SCoVN) protein was amplified through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned into yeast expression vector pPIC3.5K to construct plasmid of pPIC3.5K-SCoVN. The plasmid was linearized and then transformed into Pichia pastoris (P.pastoris) GS115 (His^+ Mut^+) by electroporation. His^+Mut^+ recombinant strains were identified by PCR and cultivated on MM/MD plates. The influence of different factors on biomass and rSCoVN protein production during induction phase, such as various induction media, dissolved oxygen (DO) and different final concentrations of methanol, was subsequently studied. The expression level and activation were detected by SDS-PAGE and Western-blot respectively.RESULTS: All of the recombinants were His^+Mut^+ after transformation of P.pastoris with linearized plasmids. The BMMY medium was optimal for recombinant ScoVN (rSCoVN) protein expression and growth of the recombinant strains.The final optimal concentration of methanol was 20 ml_/L,the DO had a significant effect on rSCoVN protein expression and growth of recombinant strains. The rSCoVN protein expressed in recombinant strains was about 8% of the total cell protein, 520 mg/L of rSCoVN protein was achieved,and a maximum cell A at 600 nm of 62 was achieved in shake flask culture. The rSCoVN protein had a high specificity against mouse-anti-SARS-CoVN-mAb and SARS positive sera, but had no cross-reaction with normal human serum.The biological activity of rSCoVN expressed in P.pastoris was about 4-fold higher than that expressed in Ecoliwhen the same rSCoVN protein quantity was used.CONCLUSION: Active recombinant severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus nucleocapsid (rSCoVN) protein can be successfully expressed in recombinant methylotrophic yeast P.pastoris GSl15. The rSCoVN protein has a high specificity against SARS-CoVN-mAb and SARS positive sera, but has no cross-reaction with normal human serum.This provides a basis for further researches on the early diagnosis of SARS and the mechanism of SCoV.Ru-Shi Liu Kun-Yu Yang Jian Lin Yi-Wei Lin Zhi-Hong Zhang Jun Zhang Ning-Shao Xia The Key Laboratory for Cell Biology and Tumor Cell Engineering of the Ministry of Education The Research Center for Medical Molecular Virology of Fujian Province,Xiamen University,Xiamen 361005,Fujian Province,China 2004World Journal of Gastroenterology2004,10,24:8
