92例原发灶不明的颈部转移性癌治疗失败模式分析

目的 回顾分析原发灶不明的颈部转移性癌患者疗效及治疗失败模式,比较选择性咽腔黏膜预防照射与单侧颈部处理两种治疗模式在疗效上的不同。方法 收集2007-2013年收治的原发灶不明的颈部转移性癌患者资料。按治疗方式不同分为咽腔黏膜预防照射组31例,单侧颈部处理组61例。生存率采用Kaplan-Meier法计算,并Logrank法检验。结果 92例患者中位年龄为57岁;79.3%患者有Ⅱ区淋巴结转移。经过中位36.5个月随访,3年的总生存率、黏膜控制率、颈部控制率分别为89%、87%、82%。15例患者出现原发灶,其中鼻咽部4例、口咽部3例、口腔3例、喉和下咽3例、上颌窦1例、食管1例。接受咽腔黏膜预防照射患者具有较高黏膜控制率(100%∶75%,P=0.040)及颈部控制率(88%∶62%,P=0.037),但两组总生存率相近(84%∶89%,P=0.910)。结论 对于原发灶不明的颈部转移性癌患者,选择性咽腔黏膜的预防性照射可能会减少原发灶出现率及增加颈部控制率,但还需大样本证实。     

肝细胞癌组织CD133与VEGF及CD34表达预后意义分析

目的:研究肝癌干细胞标志CD133、血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)及CD34在肝癌组织中的表达及其预后价值。方法:应用免疫组织化学染色方法检测CD133、VEGF和CD34在190例肝癌组织中的表达水平,分析其与各项临床病理指标以及预后之间的相关性。结果:CD133、VEGF和CD34在肝癌组织中的阳性表达率分别为22.1%(42/190)、52.1%(99/190)和50.0%(95/190)。CD133表达与VEGF表达水平、CD34表达水平、肝癌分化程度和镜下血管侵犯相关,42例CD133阳性肝癌组织中,VEGF阳性34例,阴性8例,r=0.785 3,P<0.01;CD34阳性30例,阴性12例,r=0.837 2,P<0.01;低分化肝癌(Ⅲ+Ⅳ)30例,高分化肝癌(Ⅰ+Ⅱ)12例,r=0.842 3,P<0.01;存在镜下血管侵犯33例,无镜下血管侵犯9例,r=0.884 5,P<0.05。生存分析结果表明,CD133阳性组、VEGF阳性组及CD34阳性组肝癌根治术后无瘤生存率均低于阴性组,差异有统计学意义,Log-rank检验统计量值分别为9.31、8.73和8.68,P值分别为0.036、0.012和0.013。结论:肝癌干细胞标志CD133表达影响肝癌新生血管形成以及肝癌分化程度;CD133蛋白表达程度与肝癌术后无瘤生存呈负相关,原因可能与肿瘤细胞低分化以及肿瘤血管微环境有关。

Immunohistochemical detection of CD133 expression in colorectal cancer: a clinicopathological study

CD133 has been reported to be a cancer-initiating cell marker in colorectal carcinoma. The objective of this study was to evaluate the frequency of CD133 expression in colorectal cancer, the distribution of CD133-positive cancer cells, and their relationship to clinicopathological features, including survival. An immunohistochemical examination of CD133 expression and a clinicopathological analysis were performed in the 189 consecutive colorectal cancer patients. CD133 expression was seen at the luminal surface of cancer glands mainly with cribriform features. Expression was detected in only 29 of the 189 tumors (15.3%). Of these, 21 tumors (11.1%) showed CD133 overexpression. All 21 tumors with CD133 overexpression were diagnosed as well- or moderately-differentiated adenocarcinoma. There was no difference in the distribution of CD133 expressing cells between the invasive area and surface area. Although there was no difference in recurrence-free survival between patients with CD133 overexpression and without, the patients with CD133 overexpression had significantly poorer overall survival ( P =  0.03). CD133 overexpression is a risk factor for poorer overall survival in patients with well- and moderately-differentiated adenocarcinoma. Expression of this cancer-initiating cell marker may vary with the histological type of the cancer, and further investigation of the relationship between its expression and clinicopathological features may be necessary.

Galectin-1与VEGF、CD105在宫颈癌组织中的表达及其临床意义

目的:研究宫颈癌组织中CD105和Galectin-1、VEGF的表达及其与血管生成的关系,探讨其在宫颈癌侵袭与转移中的作用。方法:应用免疫组织化学法检测Galectins-1与VEGF、CD105在30例正常宫颈组织及40例宫颈癌组织中的表达,并分析三者在宫颈癌发生及发展过程中的作用及相互关系。结果:40例宫颈癌组织中Galectin-1和VEGF的阳性表达率分别是70%和75%,30例正常宫颈组织中的阳性表达率分别为10%和20%。宫颈癌组织中Galectin-1和VEGF的阳性表达率明显高于正常宫颈组织,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);宫颈癌组织阳性表达均与不同的组织学分化程度、FIGO分期和淋巴结转移相关(P<0.05),而与患者年龄、组织大体类型无关。CD105作为新生血管的标记物测得的MVD值与宫颈癌的临床分期和淋巴结转移相关(P<0.05),与患者的年龄、大体类型和组织学分化程度无关。宫颈癌组织中,Galectin-1与VEGF的阳性表达呈正相关(P=0.043、r=0.321);Galectin-1及VEGF的阳性表达程度均与MVD呈正相关(P=0.003、r=0.453)(P=0.016、r=0.379)。结论:Galectin-1促肿瘤血管生成的作用可能是通过上调VEGF的表达来实现的,从而参与宫颈癌的侵袭与转移;Galectin-1、VEGF与CD105-MVD在宫颈癌中均高表达,提示三者可作为宫颈癌预后的指标。

Angiogenesis, p53, and c-erbB-2 immunoreactivity and clinicopathological features in male breast cancer

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: p53, c-erbB-2, and tumor microvascular density have been shown to be potential prognostic tools in female breast cancer. Our objective was to assess the significance of these biomarkers as prognostic factors in infiltrating male breast cancer. METHODS: A retrospective study of expression of p53, c-erbB-2, and tumor microvascular density was done on a group of 26 male breast cancer patients. Biotin-streptavidin immunohistochemical study with specific anti-p53, anti-c-erbB-2, and anti-CD34 antibodies was carried out on paraffin sections of breast carcinoma. The data of expression of the biomarkers were merged with clinicopathological data such as tumor grade, T class, TNM stage, estrogen receptor status, tumor recurrence, and patient survival. RESULTS: p53 and c-erbB-2 were expressed in 46% and 39% of carcinomas, respectively. No correlation was found between positive immunoreactivity of p53, and tumor grade, size, T class, TNM stage, and survival. Nor was any relation found between tumor size, T class, TNM stage, survival, and c-erbB-2 overexpression. c-erbB-2 overexpression was significantly higher in high grade carcinomas. Estrogen receptor (ER) were positive in 21 out of 26 of tumors (81%). No trends were observed between estrogen receptor status and clinicopathological parameters or survival (data not shown). There was a positive correlation between mean microvascular density (MVD), advanced T class, and survival: higher MVD counts were found in patients with advanced tumors and in those who had tumor relapses or died of metastatic disease. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that tumor microvascular density may serve as a potential prognostic tool in male breast carcinoma.
