Possible dominant-negative mutation of the SHIP gene in acute myeloid leukemia.

The SH2 domain-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) is crucial in hematopoietic development. To evaluate the possible tumor suppressor role of the SHIP gene in myeloid leukemogenesis, we examined primary leukemia cells from 30 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, together with eight myeloid leukemia cell lines. A somatic mutation at codon 684, replacing Val with Glu, was detected in one patient, lying within the signature motif 2, which is the phosphatase active site. The results of an in vitro inositol 5'-phosphatase assay revealed that the mutation reduced catalytic activity of SHIP. Leukemia cells with the mutation showed enhanced Akt phosphorylation following IL-3 stimulation. K562 cells transfected with the mutated SHIP-V684E cDNA showed a growth advantage even at lower serum concentrations and resistance to apoptosis induced by serum deprivation and exposure to etoposide. These results suggest a possible role of the mutated SHIP gene in the development of acute leukemia and chemotherapy resistance through the deregulation of the phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3)/Akt signaling pathway. This is the first report of a mutation in the SHIP gene in any given human cancer, and indicates the need for more attention to be paid to this gene with respect to cancer pathogenesis.     

跨声门癌50例观察

为确立一种原发喉室的跨声门癌，选择肿瘤主体以喉室为中心经全喉切除手术的标本５０例，火棉胶包埋，连续切片观察。结果发现①跨声门癌的肿瘤原发部位在喉室，５０例中有Ｔ２３例。②肿瘤以深层浸润为主占９０％（４５／５０），易侵及声门旁间隙（８２％，４１／５０）和甲状软骨（６４％，３２／５０），临床分期与病理分期不符达４８％（２４／５０）。结论：原发喉室的跨声门癌是声门上型癌的一种特殊类型。     

异位妊娠时子宫内膜的形态变化

目的：探讨异位妊娠时子宫内膜形态变化的规律。方法：回顾分析我院２１７例异位妊娠子宫内膜的形态变化。结果：异位妊娠时子宫内膜变化有７种类型：（１）蜕膜和Ａｒｉａｓ－Ｓｔｅｌａ反应（Ａ－Ｓ反应）；（２）高度分泌反应；（３）分泌反应不同步；（４）部分呈分泌反应、部分呈增生反应，并出现一种“小Ａ－Ｓ”腺体；（５）早、中、晚分泌期；（６）增生反应；（７）腺囊型增生过长。异位妊娠时内膜形态与有无阴道流血、流血时间长短及尿ｈＣＧ水平有关。结论：不能以是否出现蜕膜和Ａ－Ｓ反应做为诊断异位妊娠的依据，须结合病史和实验室检查才能准确判断。

喉近全切除喉功能重建术

目的 为了减少喉全切除率并重建喉功能。方法 自１９９１￣１９９６年作喉近全切除喉功能重建术１９例。男８例，女１１例。年龄最大７４岁，最小４０岁，平均５７．６岁。临床分期Ⅱ期２例，Ⅲ期９例，Ⅳ期８例。手术特点是：切除舌骨，保留环状软骨及一侧杓状软骨，将五状软骨前缘与舌根切缘吻合，增强了舌根对新喉口的遮盖作用，减轻了误咽．结果 全部病例术后发音功能良好，多数病例误咽不重。５例拔除套管经喉呼吸。１４例新     

膀胱粘膜下层无细胞基质的研制

目的 探讨膀胱粘膜下层无细胞基质的制作与评价。方法 自膀胱解剖出膀胱粘膜下层，置于PBS、0．5％SDS、双蒸水中反复洗涤去除细胞，必要时加用胰蛋白酶消化。获得的细胞外基质采用HE、免疫组化、扫描电镜评价去细胞效果，细胞植入无细胞基质观察细胞能否粘附于该材料。结果 HE、免疫组化、扫描电镜均未见制备的材料中存在细胞及细胞碎片，体外细胞植入试验见细胞可粘附于材料并增殖。结论 采用本制备方法可以得到膀胱粘膜下层无细胞基质，有望为临床提供尿道下裂生物替代材料。
