食管腺癌淋巴结转移与肿瘤侵及食管壁深度的关系

目的 对腺癌侵及食管壁深度与淋巴结转移的关系以及淋巴结转移对预后的影响进行分析研究.方法 澳大利亚弗林德斯大学医学中心自1985年～2003年,手术治疗食管腺癌121例.其中男101例,女20例.年龄36～80岁,平均62岁.本组手术切除率为96.7%（117/121例）.手术清扫淋巴结的数目每例为2～30个,平均8个.无淋巴结转移59例（48.8%）、有淋巴结转移62例（51.2%）.本组病例全部得到随访.结果 当肿瘤位于黏膜层或黏膜下层（T1）时,淋巴结转移的发生率为22.2%（10/45例）、平均淋巴结转移的个数为0.3个、＞4个淋巴结转移的比例为0（0/45例）;当肿瘤侵及食管周围组织（T4）时,淋巴结转移的发生率为85.7%（6/7例）、平均淋巴结转移的个数为5.1个、＞4个淋巴结转移的比例为71.4%（5/7例）,P＜0.05.无淋巴结转移组的5年生存率为52.9%、1～4个淋巴结转移组的5年生存率为11.5%、＞4个淋巴结转移组的5年生存率为0,P＜0.01.结论 肿瘤对食管壁侵及深度和淋巴结转移的发生率及淋巴结转移的数量之间存在正相关性.随着肿瘤对食管壁侵及深度的增加,淋巴结转移的发生率、平均淋巴结转移的数量和＞4个淋巴结转移的比例均增加.有无淋巴结转移和淋巴结转移的数量是影响远期生存率的一个重要因素.     

CO2气腹环境对胃癌细胞黏附与侵袭转移的影响

Objective To investigate the influence of CO2 pneumoperitoneum on the adhesive and invasive ability of gastric cancer cells based on the expression of adhesive and invasive molecules. Methods With an artificial CO2 pneumoperitoneum model in vitro, human gastric cancer cells MKN-45, SGC-7901 and MKN-28 were exposed to 3 different CO2 gradients: 9 mm Hg, 15 mm Hg and control group (0 mm Hg). The expression of E-cadherin, ICAM-1, MMP-2 and VEGF-A were measured at 2 and 4 hours exposure by using RT-PCR, CytoMatrixTM kit and ECMatrixTM kit. The pretreated gastric cancer cells were injected into abdominal cavity of nude mice(2×106 cells per mouse). Five mice in each group were sacrificed 4 weeks later to record the number of tumor nodules in abdominal cavity. The remaining mice were kept for observation of survival time. Results The expression of E-cadherin (MKN-45: from 2.26 to 2.19, SGC-7901 :from 2.16 to 2.09、MKN-28 :from 2.06 to 1.99), ICAM-1 (MKN-45 : from 2.20 to 2.28、SGC-7901: from 2.10 to 2.18、MKN-28: from 2.00 to 2.08), MMP-2 (MKN-45:from 2.05 to 2.13、SGC-7901: from 1.95 to 2.03、MKN-28: from 1.85 to 1.93) and VEGF-A(MKN-45 : from 2.10 to 2.16、SGC-7901 :from 2.00 to 2.06、MKN-28: from 1.90 to 1.96) didn't change significantly with increasing pressure and time (P>0.05). The expression of adhesive and invasive molecules didn't change significantly between the experimental groups and the control group. There was no statistical significance of tumor metastasis in abdominal cavity of nude mice(MKN-45:from 22 to 23、SGC-7901 :from 20 to 22、MKN-28:from 21 to 22) and survival time(MKN-45 :from 23 to 21、SGC-7901 :from 22 to 21、MKN-28 :from 22 to 21) among all the groups. Conclusion Under low pressure and short time of CO2 exposure, the adhesive and invasive capacity of gastric cancer cells did not change significantly hence did not increase the possibility of neoplasm metastasis.

基质金属蛋白酶与肺癌转移的关系

基质金属蛋白酶(matrix metalloproteinases，MMPs)是一组锌离子依赖的蛋白水解酶，在ECM降解中起着重要作用。目前研究表明，MMPs活性异常不仅能促进肿瘤血管形成，还是人类多种肿瘤侵袭和转移的必要条件。本文就与肺癌侵袭和转移有关的MMPs研究作一综述。     

E-钙黏附蛋白、CD44v6在卵巢上皮性肿瘤及卵巢癌转移灶中的表达

目的：在基因表达水平上研究黏附分子(E-cadherin，CD44v6)与卵巢癌转移的关系。方法：用免疫组化S-P法，选取1997～2002年间石蜡包埋的卵巢上皮性肿瘤组织块107块，其中良性上皮性肿瘤30例，交界瘤13例，恶性34例(Ⅰ、Ⅱ期4例，Ⅲ、Ⅳ期30例)，对30例恶性晚期(Ⅲ、Ⅳ期)病例选取对应的大网膜转移组织。结果：30例良性上皮性肿瘤组织中，E-钙黏附蛋白100％强阳性表达，CD44v6100％阴性。13例交界瘤中，E-钙黏附蛋白有11例(84．6％)强阳性，CD44v6有1例弱阳性表达。34例恶性上皮性肿瘤中，E-钙黏附素有24例(70．6％)阳性表达，CD44v6有11例(32．4％)阳性表达。二指标在良性上皮性肿瘤与卵巢癌之间的阳性表达有显著性差异(P=0．001，P=0．000)。二指标在原发灶和大网膜转移灶之间表达无显著差别(P=1．000，P=1．000)。结论：E-cadherin及CD44v6在上皮性卵巢肿瘤中的表达呈相反趋势，E-cadherin及CD44v6与卵巢癌组织学分级及预后无明显相关性。     

Cytokeratin 7 and 20 as immunohistochemical markers in identification of primary tumors in craniospinal metastases: Do they have a significant role?

Cytokeratin (CK)7 and CK20, the low molecular weight cytokeratins, have been found to have a benefit in the differential diagnosis of some epithelial neoplasms. In the present study, the actual role of these markers in the search of primary tumors in 32 patients with craniospinal metastasis of an unknown primary site at presentation, is evaluated. A series of 36 patients with a known primary tumor were presented for comparison. In the first group, two CK7 and CK20 expression profiles were observed; 87% of metastatic tumors were CK7+/CK20‐ and 13% CK7‐/CK20‐. The lung was the major source (82%) of CK7+/CK20‐ metastatic tumors, whereas it represented only 38% of primary tumor in the second group of a known primary site (P = 0.006). Given the fact that metastatic tumors to the craniospinal axis of an unknown primary site are frequently CK7+/CK20‐, and they have commonly metastasized from the lung, it is doubtful that immunohistochemistry is really helpful. However, CT scan and MRI of the chest still play an important role. Many patients in the present study had to undertake these imaging studies, regardless of the CK7/CK20 result. The immunostains may be useful in cases with other expression profiles, but such examples constituted only a minority in the present study.     

前列腺癌细胞株Du145裸鼠胫骨部骨肿瘤转移模型的建立

目的:建立一种裸鼠前列腺癌骨转移模型,观察肿瘤局部生长和远处转移情况,并进一步探讨其应用价值。方法:9只6周龄雄性BALB/C裸鼠麻醉后,将前肢及左后肢固定,以1 m l TB针筒-29G针头从胫骨头关节窝,刺入骨髓腔缓缓注入人前列腺癌Du145细胞悬液30μl(约5×106个细胞)至骨髓腔,以建立前列腺癌骨转移模型。观察裸鼠生命体征变化。于濒死状态下处死,取右后肢及其附近淋巴结、肺脏和肝脏等标本,用40 m l/L甲醛固定、石蜡包埋、苏木精-伊红染色后显微镜下观察。结果:9只裸鼠中有6只模型建立成功。接种后平均48 d裸鼠出现跛行现象,右后肢胫骨部可触及米粒大小的包块,质硬,进一步发展至小鼠行走障碍。55 d后出现恶病质,解剖后发现右后肢胫骨部骨质疏松,局部有“腐肉”样组织突出髓腔,填塞肌肉间隙,病理证实为肿瘤组织。肝脏泛黄、被膜皱缩,镜下呈急性重型肝炎的病理改变。结论:胫骨内注射细胞悬液制作裸鼠前列腺癌骨转移模型较好地模拟了人前列腺癌在骨骼微环境中的生长及转归情况,是研究前列腺肿瘤骨转移的适宜模型。     

原发灶未明的颈结转移癌31例临床分析

本文对我院自1983年至1989年收治的原发灶未明的颈结转癌31例进行临床分析。男18例。女13例;平均年龄47.5岁,颈结位于颈单侧26例,双侧5例;位于颈上部18例次、颈中部6例次、颈下部8例次、锁骨上窝4例次(右3、左1)。在转移癌位于颈上、中部的18例中,8例作咽轴部放射治疗,其3和5年生存率明显优于不作咽轴照射者,包括放疗在内和综合治疗比不加放疗的结果好。有4例疗后追踪找到了原发灶,其中2例为腮腺癌,2例分别为肺鳞、腺癌。转移灶位于锁骨上窝的4例预后最差。     

Testicular seminoma with human chorionic gonadotropin production

Testicular seminoma with elevated serum human chorionic gonadotropin level (hCG-positive seminoma) is regarded as more malignant than marker-negative seminoma, although Its prognosis is still unclear. To clarify the malignant potential of seminoma with hCG production, the serum levels of the beta subunit of hCG (β-hCG) and lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) were examined in 35 and 40 patients, respectively, and the Immunohistochemical expression of β-hCG examined in 45 tumors. The elevation of the LDH serum level correlated to the Invasive status, metestatic status and poor outcome, while that of the serum β-hCG level correlated only to the metastatic status. Immunohistochemical expression of β-hCG was observed in syncytiotrophoblastic giant cells in 11 tumors and a few mononuclear seminoma cells In 36 tumors. Expression was not associated with the malignancy potential, except where the expression In mononuclear cells Inversely correlated to the invasive status. These results suggest that most seminomas produce a slight amount of hCG; that an elevated hCG serum level Indicates the pressnce of metastatic tumors and mainly reflects an increase in tumor volume but not in cellular malignancy potential; and that the LDH serum level, rather than hCG, is more useful as a prognostic indicator for patients with seminoma.
