Biologic effects of hyperthermia and radiation on gastric cancer cells (SGC-7901) in vitro. II. Ultrastructural changes of cells

Different characteristic damages of the SGC-7901 gastric adenocarcinoma cells were studied by electron microscopy 1, 36, 72, 96 and 120 hours after heating and radiation in vitro. The visible damages, such as the enlarged mitochondria, increase of lysosomes and perichromatin granules could be shown 1 hour after heating (43 degrees C for 30 min) but no visible damages of the cells were shown until 36 hours following radiation (500 rad). In order to study the ultrastructural changes of the gastric cancer cells in mitosis after heating and radiation, we have used the new method of ultrastructural research in selecting and observing the M cell in vitro and found loosened structure of chromosome and disappearance of microtubules 1 hour following hyperthermia. At the same time, no apparent abnormalities of the mitotic cells were observed after radiation. It is the chief cause of division delay in heat injured cells. However, the chromosomes and microtubules of the new mitotic cells could recover 36 hours after heating (43 degrees C for 30 min). After radiation, the giant cells and abnormal morphologic changes of cells gradually increase and the living cells decrease. Unexpectedly, the division of a few giant cells is observed 72 hours after heating and radiation.

肥大细胞的浸润对胃癌生长转移的影响

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between mast cell infiltration and the development and metastasis of gastric carcinoma. METHODS: Alcian blue-Safranin O staining and image analysis system were employed to observe, classify and quantify the mast cells in 74 gastric carcinoma specimens. RESULTS: Mast cells resided predominantly in the marginal area of the tumor and most of them were mature type, active and capable of discharging granules into the cytoplasm. The mast cells in the marginal area of the tumor were significantly more numerous than those in the matrix of the tumor (P<0.01) and there was a positive correlation between them (r=0.303, P<0.01). The density of the mast cells was inversely correlated to the depth of tumor invasion and the number of lymph node metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: Mast cell infiltration in the matrix of the tumor plays an important role in preventing the invasion and metastasis of gastric carcinoma possibly by release of heparin and other bioactive substances. Mast cell quantity in the marginal area of the tumor may serve as an indicator for prognostic assessment of gastric carcinoma.     

2,6—二叔丁基对甲酚对大鼠尿生化指标的影响

以２０，６０和１８０ｍｇ／ｋｇ体重剂量给大鼠喂食２，６－二叔丁基对甲酚（ＢＨＴ），检测尿中ＡＳＴ、ＡＬＰ、ＬＤＨ和ＧＧＴ等指标变化。结果表明：随染毒时间延长，各尿酶含量逐渐出现显著性增高，病理学检查发现高剂量组有１例间质性肾炎，提示ＢＨＴ对肾功能可能产生有害作用。

Missense mutations and evolutionary conserved amino acids at the human hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl-transferase locus.

Molecular characterization of in vivo mutation at the human hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (hprt) locus has revealed a broad spectrum of mutation, both with regard to germ-line mutation in Lesch-Nyhan and gout patients, and somatic mutation in 6-thioguanine resistant T-lymphocytes from healthy individuals. The pattern of missense mutation shows a non-random distribution with a preferential location to codons for amino acids which are identical in human and the two parasites Schistosoma mansoni and Plasmodium falciparum. Although these 'evolutionary conserved' amino acids account for only 32% of the amino acids in the human hprt protein, they are involved in 76% of the missense mutations at the hprt locus in human T-lymphocytes, 67% in Lesch-Nyhan patients (with severe hprt-deficiency), but only 43% in gout patients (with partial hprt deficiency). This observation supports the notion that evolutionary conserved amino acids constitute functionally important sites in the hprt enzyme, and missense mutations affecting these amino acids will often lead to complete loss of enzyme activity. Substitutions of 'non-conserved' amino acids cause less severe hprt-deficiency (as seen in the gout patients), or may even escape clinical diagnosis. These considerations are important for the understanding of structure-activity relationships in the hprt protein, possible differences between hprt mutational spectra in germ-line and somatic cells, and the mutational spectra induced by specific exogeneous mutagens.
