Photoinactivation of bladder tumor cells by methylene blue: study of a variety of tumor and normal cells

Human bladder cancer cell lines, J82, Yen-87, Shen-87 and Zoa-88, and murine bladder cancer cell lines, MBT-2 and M1660, were used as target cells for dye-sensitized photoinactivation study in using methylene blue. Normal fibroblast cells, FB-1 and FB8490, were used as control group. The cytoplasmic activity of lactic dehydrogenase, soft agar clonogenic assay, and in vivo tumor growth, survival rate and tumor taking rate with or without photoinactivation were monitored and compared between different cell lines. Efficacy of photoinactivation was time-related and more than 90 per cent of cytotoxicity could be obtained within 60 minutes of illumination. The plateau of cytotoxicity curve could be achieved after staining for 30 minutes by methylene blue under the same illumination time. Normal fibroblasts had the same features with cancer cells. Photoinactivation of tumor cells showed significant inhibition of tumor growth and tumor taking rate in experimental animals. Survival rate was also significantly prolonged in the animals with tumor cells receiving photoinactivation. These results suggest that methylene blue-sensitized photoinactivation may be useful as an adjuvant photochemotherapy for superficial bladder cancer.     

老年人视网膜中央血管在前部视神经的解剖特征

目的：观察老年人前部视神经视网膜中央血管的解剖特征。 方法：通过组织连续切片和计算机影像分析，观察60~82岁老年人的18只眼球标本中无解剖变异的视网膜中央动脉(CRA)15条，视网膜中央静脉（CRV）23条在筛板前、筛板区及筛板后的管径变化。 结果：老年人筛板前、筛板区、筛板后CRA平均面积的均值分别为（12.70,17.40,18.00）×10^-3mm^2_;平均周长的均值分别为0.56，0.56，0.57mm，平均周长之间相比无显著差异。CRV平均面积的均值分别为（7.00，5.40，7.90）×10^-3mm²；平均周长的均值分别为0.44，0.38，0.41mm；CRV平均周长筛板前与筛板区相比，筛板区与筛板后相比均有显著差异。 结论：老年人CRA眼球内外管径一致；CRV在筛板区管径最小。 （中华眼底病杂志，1997，13：213-214）
     

膀胱移行细胞癌中P16及Rb基因表达的关系

应用免疫组织化学方法对５９例膀胱移行细胞癌中Ｐ１６及Ｒｂ基因的表达进行研究。结果显示：５９例中Ｐ１６及Ｒｂ基因阳性表达率分别为４７４６％、７１１９％，其中１１例肿瘤组织（１８６４％）Ｐ１６及Ｒｂ基因均阳性表达，未发现同一肿瘤组织中同时存在Ｐ１６及Ｒｂ基因的表达缺失。Ｐ１６及Ｒｂ基因在膀胱移行细胞癌中的阳性表达率在肿瘤病理分级及临床分期的差异中均有显著性（Ｐ＜００５）。结果提示：Ｐ１６及Ｒｂ基因的异常表达在膀胱肿瘤的发生、发展过程中起重要作用，膀胱肿瘤中Ｐ１６及Ｒｂ基因同时表达缺失是少见现象     

前列腺带性结构及其雄激素、雌激素、表皮生长因子受体分布特征的研究

为了探讨雄激素受体（ＡＲ）、雌激素受体（ＥＲ）、孕激素受体（ＰＲ）和表皮生长因子受体（ＥＧＦＲ）在前列腺带性结构中的分布，应用单饱和剂量测定法，分别测定了前列腺移行带、外周带组织中ＡＲ、ＥＲ、ＰＲ和ＥＧＦＲ的含量。结果表明，在１１例前列腺增生症（ＢＰＨ）患者２２份标本中，移行带和周围带ＡＲ全部阳性；尽管ＡＲ浓度个体差异很大，但是两带之间仍有密切相关性（Ｐ＜０００１）；周围带ＡＲ浓度高于移行带，两带ＡＲ浓度均高于ＰＲ、ＥＲ；ＰＲ和ＥＲ在前列腺带性结构上没有明显差异。ＥＧＦＲ在移行带明显高于周围带。研究证实了ＡＲ、ＥＲ、ＰＲ，ＥＧＦＲ在前列腺移行带和周围带上的分布特征。     

人卵巢癌中肿瘤转移抑制基因nm23-H1编码蛋白的表达

目的：探讨人卵巢癌标本中，肿瘤转移抑制基因ｎｍ２３－Ｈ１编码蛋白ＮＤＰＫ－Ａ表达的临床意义及其与预后的关系。方法：应用免疫组织化学抗生蛋白链菌素－过氧化酶结合（Ｓ－Ｐ）法，检测５８例人卵巢癌标本中ｎｍ２３－Ｈ１蛋白水平。结果：ｎｍ２３－Ｈ１蛋白的表达与患者手术时是否有淋巴结及大网膜转移相关（Ｐ〈０．０５），但原发灶与转移灶间的阳性表达率相差不显著；与患者术后生存时间密切相关（Ｐ〈０．０１），术后生     

Hereditary characteristics of enzyme deficiency and dermatoglyphics in congenital color blindness

The hereditary characteristics of enzyme deficiency and dermatoglyphics in congenital color blindness (CCB) were studied. We propose that there is a linkage between the two loci on the X-chromosome determining CCB and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), based on our study of a high incidence of G6PD deficiency in 156 male cases with CCB. The CCB gene is closely linked with that of G6PD deficiency from our pedigree investigations. The rise in the frequency of eight or more whorls, the low value of atd angle and the presenting rate of real palmar patterns of the thenar, hypothenar and I, areas presented the hereditary traits of congenital color blindness.     

Histamine level and transglutaminase activity may provide indication of the development of spontaneous mammary tumor in C3H mice

Histamine (HA) concentrations and HA metabolizing enzyme activities were measured in macroscopically unchanged mammary glands and in tumor tissue of C3H mice carrying spontaneous mammary tumor as well as im mammary glands of control subjects matched for age.The great fall in HA level and the enzyme activities in tumor tissue was confirmed. In host mammary glands which showed no current evidence of neoplasm, consistently lower than normal HA concentrations and elevated transglutaminase (TG) activity were found, It is suggested, therefore, that HA level and TG activity may provide an early indication of the development of spontaneous mammary tumor.
