关于乳腺普通性增生、不典型增生和原位癌相互关系及鉴别诊断的探讨

目的 探讨各种类型乳腺增生症的发病特点、形态学分类、不典型增生与乳腺癌的关系以及不典型增生与乳腺原位癌的鉴别诊断标准。方法 (1)观察本院300例乳腺良性增生性病变的临床发病特点及其病理形态改变。(2)观察86例大切片乳腺癌旁不典型增生病灶与癌灶的关系。结果 乳腺增生症中,纤维腺瘤为主型好发于21～30岁年龄组,而不典型增生病变则多见于40～60岁组。其中囊肿病仅占6．0％,而纤维腺瘤变达25．4％;癌旁组织中不典型增生发生率为65．1％,其中以导管原位癌发生率最高,达74．9％。结论 研究证实了1997年(舟山)“乳腺增生症的组织学分类”(推荐方案)的可行性。乳腺不典型增生与乳腺癌的发生密切相关。乳腺增生症可归纳为普通性增生和不典型增生。不典型增生的特殊增生细胞具有特别的诊断价值。重度不典型增生与原位癌的鉴别诊断有一定困难,但大部分可分。     

Significance of beta-catenin and pRB pathway components in malignant ovarian germ cell tumours: INK4A promoter CpG island methylation is associated with cell proliferation

To clarify the mechanisms underlying cell cycle promotion in malignant germ cell tumours of the ovary (MGCTOs), beta-catenin and components of the pRB pathway, cyclin D1 and p16, were analysed in relation to cell proliferation. Immunohistochemically, p16 protein was not expressed in a number of MGCTOs (9 of 42 tumours: 21.4%) and was associated with p16 gene (INK4A) promoter 5'-CpG islands methylation. Amplification of the cyclin D1 gene (CCND1) was detected in a small number of MGCTOs (5 of 42 tumours: 13.5%). Reduced expression of p16 due to promoter methylation correlated significantly with increased cell proliferation as evidenced by Ki-67 labelling index (p < 0.001) and mitotic index (p < 0.01). In some tumour types, nuclear localization of beta-catenin has been reported to be associated with beta-catenin gene (CTNNB1) mutation, cyclin D1 overexpression, and increased cell proliferation. Nuclear localization of beta-catenin, which was observed in MGCTOs other than dysgerminoma, was not associated with cyclin D1 expression and increased cell proliferation, but appeared to be related to tumour differentiation. Furthermore, CTNNB1 mutations were not detected in any of the MGCTOs examined. Our results suggest that reduced expression of p16 due to INK4A promoter methylation is one of the principal factors that promote cell proliferation in MGCTOs. Thus, p16 may be a novel target for gene therapies to treat MGCTOs.     

A new microcellular cytotoxicity test based on calcein AM release

We present a microtest for cell-mediated immunity, based on the use of the Tarasaki tray and calcein AM vital dye. The number of target cells needed has been reduced to 500 per test with a corresponding tenfold reduction in the number of effector cells needed. Results were read at the rate of 1 second per test using a fluorimeter attached to a microscope. Each reaction was also confirmed visually with the use of ethidium bromide as a counterstain for dead cells. The calcein AM dye used to stain the living cells was shown to have a low spontaneous leakage rate—less than 15% in 4 hours at 37°C. Dilutions of targets stained by calcein AM had a linear relationship with measured fluorescence values. NK cells, LAKs, and CTLs were readily detectable by this microtest. Quantitation of killing and kinetic analysis was readily performed with this test system. A significant positive correlation to ⁵¹Cr-release results was found. We conclude that the microtest should find wide application in studies of cell-mediated immunity.     

铀作业人员的微循环改变

对铀作业者１９９例及无毒物接触史的正常人１０１例行甲襞微循环检测。结果，铀作业人员甲襞微循环有改变，其加权积分值大于对照组。主要表现在管袢数减少（Ｐ＜０．０１）、管径增粗（Ｐ＜０．０１）、毛细血管运动增加（Ｐ＜０．０１）、乳丛增多（Ｐ＜０．０１）。通过对铀致微循环改变的机理试以分析，提出这种微循环改变是铀中毒的病理表现，亦是铀中毒的重要发病环节；提示铀中毒治疗中应注重改善微循环。     

人乳头状瘤病毒16 E7 DNA在结直肠腺癌组织中的表达

结直肠癌与人类乳头状瘤病毒(Human papilloma virus,HPV)感染有一定的关系,但由于检测方法、标本选择及样本数量不同,各研究结果之间差异很大。为进一步明确结直肠癌变与HPV16感染的关系,采用多聚酶链反应(Polymerase chain reaction,PCR)对82例原发性结直肠腺癌患者手术切除的新鲜癌及癌旁正常粘膜组织进行了前瞻性对照研究,检测了组织中HPV16E7DNA的表达并进行测序鉴定。结果显示,结直肠腺癌组织HPV16E7的表达阳性率(42/82)明显高于癌旁正常粘膜组织(4/82);直肠癌组织中HPV16E7的表达(64.10%)明显高于升结肠癌(18.18%),即癌灶部位距肛门越近,感染率越高;HPV16阳性率与Dukes分期相关,Dukes分期越晚感染率越高;与癌组织分化程度无相关性。结果提示结直肠癌的发生、发展可能与HPV16感染有关。

弯曲血管内血流与动脉粥样硬化斑块的相互影响与作用

作为文章[1]的继续,本文在文章[1]的分析结果基础上,针对壁面对称和非对称狭窄的两种不同情况,通过数值计算给出弯曲狭窄血管内血流的轴向和周向切应力的分布曲线,并讨论其随管壁面几何参数的变化情况。同时,还讨论壁面几何参数对平均血流量和压力降影响的规律。从中发现,当狭窄较轻时(λ<0.2),壁面切应力、平均流量和压力降受狭窄度(λ)的影响不大,而在狭窄较严重时(λ>0.7),狭窄度微小的变化会引起它们急剧变化。此外,在讨论狭窄的非对称性对上述血流动力学参数的影响时还发现,非对称性只对轴向切应力有明显的影响,而对其它参量的影响并不十分显著。
