Endoglin (CD105) and vascular endothelial growth factor as prognostic markers in colorectal cancer.

Endoglin (CD105) has been shown to be a more useful marker to identify proliferating endothelium involved in tumor angiogenesis than panendothelial markers such as CD31. We investigated endoglin and vascular endothelial growth factor expression as possible prognostic markers in colorectal cancer. Surgical specimens from 150 patients with resected colorectal carcinomas were immunostained for endoglin, CD31 and vascular endothelial growth factor. Colorectal carcinoma cases consisted of 50 cases without lymph node metastases, 50 cases with only lymph node metastases and 50 cases with liver metastases (38 cases also had positive lymph nodes). Positively stained microvessels were counted in densely vascular foci (hot spots) at x 400 fields in each specimen. For vascular endothelial growth factor, intensity of staining was scored on a three-tiered scale. Results were correlated with other prognostic parameters. Endoglin demonstrated significantly more proliferating neoplastic microvessels than CD31 (31+/-10 vs 19+/-8/0.15 mm2 field, P<0.001). Low vascular endothelial growth factor expression within tumor cells was seen in 49 (33%) and high expression in 101 cases (67%). There was a positive correlation of endoglin, CD31 counts and vascular endothelial growth factor overexpression with the presence of angiolymphatic invasion and lymph node metastases (P<0.05). Only endoglin counts correlated significantly with liver metastases and positive vascular pedicle lymph nodes (P<0.05), while vascular endothelial growth factor showed significant correlation with the depth of invasion (P<0.01). Endoglin, by staining higher numbers of the proliferating vessels in colon carcinoma, is a more specific and sensitive marker for tumor angiogenesis than the commonly used panendothelial markers. Endoglin staining also showed prognostic significance with positive correlation with angiolymphatic invasion and metastases to lymph nodes and liver.     

Quantitation of mitomycin C in human ocular tissues by high-performance liquid chromatography-photo-diode array detection

A chromatographic method, which can quantitate mitomycin C (MMC) along with two antiglaucoma drugs, is described. The separation of MMC, alphagan and timolol was performed on a reversed-phase C18 column with water-methanol-trifluoroacetic acid (65:35:0.01, v/v) as the mobile phase. By monitoring at 360, 248 and 296 nm, the lower limits of detection for MMC, alphagan and timolol are, respectively, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 ng (injection amount) at three-time S/N ratio. The dynamic ranges of quantitation for the three drugs are, respectively, 1.0 ng-10.0 microg, 2.0 ng-10.0 microg and 5.0 ng-10.0 microg with linearity being larger than 0.9960. This method was applied to the determination of MMC levels in Tenon's and trabeculum tissues of 10 glaucoma patients. MMC levels in these tissues, which were obtained from glaucoma filtering surgery, were determined following a multiple extraction with methanol. The recovery of MMC for a two-batch extraction was better than 91.2%. The reproducibility of measurement for the MMC levels in these tissues is 2.5-6.0% RSD for triplicate injections. The intra-day variation of retention times for the MMC peaks was less than 1.6% RSD (n=3). The inter-day variation of retention times for the MMC peaks was less than 4.8% RSD (n=3). MMC was detectable in three trabeculum tissues out of 10 cases (ranging from 0.8 to 25.5 ng/mg specimen), while MMC was detected in nine Tenon's tissues out of 10 cases (ranging from 0.3 to 21.1 ng/mg specimen). The results obtained show that the method is sensitive and selective for the quantitation of MMC.     

Allogenic donor splenocytes pretreated with antisense peptide against B7 prolong cardiac allograft survival

The interaction of T cell CD28/CTLA-4 receptors with B7 on antigen-presenting cells (APCs) represents an important co-stimulatory pathway in T cell activation or anergy. Our previous study indicated that recipients immunized with allogenic donor immature dendritic cells (DCs) or resting B cells could induce specific immune tolerance and prolong allograft survival. A possible mechanism for this observation is that the expression of B7 molecules is either at a low level or lacking on these cells. The present study investigates whether blockade of B7 molecules on donor splenocytes with a B7 antisense peptide (B7AP), i.e. a peptide analogue of the CD28-binding region, could induce specific immune tolerance and prolong allograft survival in the recipients. Both the lymphocyte proliferation reaction and the mice pinna cardiac allograft experiment were performed to evaluate the role of B7AP in inducing specific immune tolerance in recipients in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that 56.65% and 20.52% of C57BL/6 splenocytes expressed B7.1 and B7.2 molecules, respectively, on their cell surface. There were no significant changes of the B7 expression on such splenocytes after being treated by the B7AP (53.28% and 19.06%, respectively). B7AP inhibited the mixed lymphocyte reaction by up to 38.4% and a dose-response correlation was observed for inhibition. The recipients (BALB/c) immunized with B7AP-pretreated C57BL/6 splenocytes induced a specific immune hypo-response (43%versus control) and notably prolonged survival of the C57BL/6 cardiac allograft by up to 20.3 days. In contrast to the normal saline group (average: 8.6 days) and FTD(10) control peptide group (<4 days), the cardiac allograft survival of the test group was extended for an additional 11.7 days. These results strongly support the notion that immunization with donor splenocytes, which had been pretreated with B7AP, induced specific immune tolerance and prolonged allograft survival in the recipients.
