Immunohistochemical Study of Colorectal Polyps with Antibodies against CEA,CA19-9, CA125, CA15-3 (DF3), PCNA and p53

Abstract: We analyzed the expression of CEA, CA19-9, CA125, CA15-3 (DF3), PCNA and p53 immunohistochemically in 14 tissue specimens of mucosal cancers in adenoma, seven tubulovillous adenoma specimens, and 16 tubular adenoma specimens. The rates of positive staining for mucosal cancer in adenoma, tubulovillous adenoma and tubular adenoma specimens, respectively, were: for CEA: 100%, 85.7% and 75%; for CA19-9: 71.4%, 71.4% and 56.2%; for CA125:0%, 0% and 0%;for CA15-3 (DF3): 64.3 %, 0% and 0 %; for PCNA: 100%, 88.9% and 56.2%; and for p53: 35.7%, 0% and 0% . The results suggest that the expressions of CEA, CA19-9, CA15-3 (DF3), PCNA and p53 are related to colorectal tumorigenesis. None of the specimens studied showed staining for CA125, suggesting that CA125 is not involved in the early stages of colorectal carcinogenesis. There was no significant difference in the rates of positive staining for CEA and CA19-9 among mucosal cancer in adenoma, tubular adenoma and tubulovillous adenoma specimens. However, the rates of positive staining for PCNA and p53 were significantly higher in mucosal cancer in adenoma specimens than for tubular adenoma specimens (p<0.05), and the rate of CA15-3 (DF3) positive staining was significantly higher for mucosal cancer in adenoma than for tubulovillous adenoma (p<0.01) and tubular adenoma (p< 0.001) specimens. Therefore, the CA15-3 (DF3) antigen is an immunohistochemical marker for colorectal carcinomas. The present results suggest that CA15-3 (DF3), PCNA and p53 play important roles in the genesis of colorectal adenomas.

Estrogen receptor alpha pathway is involved in the regulation of Calbindin-D9k in the uterus of immature rats.

It has been demonstrated in our previous studies that Calbindin-D9k (CaBP-9k) is a potent biomarker for screening estrogen-like chemicals in the rat model. Although treatments with 17beta-estradiol (E2) and endocrine disrupting compounds resulted in the up-regulation of uterine CaBP-9k, the mechanism of CaBP-9k induction by these compounds through two subtypes of estrogen receptors (ERalpha and ERbeta) is unclear. Thus, in the present study, immature rats were treated with propyl pyrazole triol (PPT, an ERalpha-selective ligand), diarylpropionitrile (DPN, an ERbeta-selective ligand), E2, or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, a vehicle control) for three days in order to clarify which subtype of ER is involved in the uterine CaBP-9k induction. Following injection with these ER ligands, uterine CaBP-9k expression was analyzed by Northern blot and immunoblot assays. Uterine CaBP-9k expression is mainly mediated by PPT in a dose- and time-dependent manner in immature rats, whereas no significant alteration of the uterine CaBP-9k gene was observed after DPN treatment. In addition, an estrogenicity of PPT in inducing CaBP-9k expression was completely blocked by the anti-estrogen ICI 182,780, implying that uterine CaBP-9k is solely induced by ERalpha. A single treatment with PPT rapidly increased the protein levels of ERalpha and PR, an E2-mediated gene, in these tissues. Taken together, these results indicate that uterine CaBP-9k is induced by E2 and endocrine disrupting chemicals via the ERalpha pathway, but not ERbeta, in the uterus of immature rats.

目的探讨ATP敏感性钾通道开放剂pinacidil对大鼠脑缺血再灌注后神经元凋亡的保护作用及信号转导机制。方法 100 只Wistar 雄性大鼠随机分为四组:A 组(假手术组)、B组 (缺血组)、C 组 (KATP开放剂处理组)及D组 (KATP开放剂和阻断剂处理组)。用线栓法制备大鼠大脑中动脉缺血(middle cerebral artery occlusion,MCAO)模型,用DNA断端末端标记法(terminal-deoxynucleotidytransferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling,TUNEL)检测神经元凋亡,用原位杂交方法检测caspase-3、caspase-8及caspase-9 mRNA的表达。结果 (1) C组12 h、24 h、48 h、72 h 时间点的凋亡细胞数较 B、D 组显著减少(P<0.05 或 P<0.01) ;B 组和 D组之间无显著性差异(P>0.05)。(2) C 组 caspase-3 mRNA 和 caspase-8 mRNA 在各时间点及 caspase-9 mRNA 在 12 h、24 h、48 h、72h 时间点的表达显著少于B组和D组(P<0.01或P<0.05),B组和D组之间无显著性差异(P>0.05)。结论 KATP通道开放剂能显著减少大鼠脑缺血再灌注后的细胞凋亡及caspase-3、caspase-8及caspase-9 mRNA的表达。KATP通道开放剂可能通过抑制线粒体通路和死亡受体通路降低神经元凋亡,保护缺血再灌注损伤后的脑组织。

Sural nerve biopsies in Guillain-Barre syndrome: axonal degeneration and macrophage-associated demyelination and absence of cytomegalovirus genome.

T-cell infiltration was detected by immunohistochemistry in only 2 of 10 sural nerve biopsies from patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). The number of endoneurial macrophages, identified by the monoclonal antibody MAC 387, was increased, compared with the number in 10 cases of axonal neuropathy. Macrophage-associated demyelination was identified in 7 and axonal degeneration in 8 cases. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) genome was not detected with the polymerase chain reaction.
