Sensitive Detection of p53 Gene Mutations in Esophageal Endoscopic Biopsy Specimens by Cell Sorting Combined with Polymerase Chain Reaction Single-strand Conformation Polymorphism Analysis

For the rapid and sensitive detection of p53 gene mutations in esophageal endoscopic biopsy specimens, we combined cell sorting with the polymerase chain reaction and single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis. Mutations in exons 5–8 of the p53 gene were investigated by FCR-SSCF analysis using 10³ sorted nuclei obtained from each endoscopic biopsy specimen of 16 patients with esophageal cancer. DNAs extracted from their respective surgical specimens were investigated by a conventional method of PCR-SSCP analysis. Mutations in the biopsy specimens were detected in 6 of the 12 aneuploid tumors but in none of the 4 diploid tumors. After tumor cell enrichment by cell sorting, one mutation in exon 8 became apparent, which could not be detected from the surgical specimen by a conventional method of PCR-SSCP analysis. This method should improve the sensitivity of detecting p53 gene mutations, and provides additional information concerning the DNA ploidy pattern in the tumors.     

Preparation and Characterization of a Murine Monoclonal Antibody (MDR3M) Reactive with mdr3 Gene Product

A murine monoclonal antibody (MDR3M) (isotype: IgM) reactive with mdr3 gene product was generated by immunizing mice with mdr3 -specific peptide (H₂N-¹²WRPTSAEGDFELGISSKQKRKKTKTVKMI⁴¹G-COOH) and hybridizing the primed mouse splenic B cells with X63-Ag8,6.5.3 mouse plasmacytoma cells. MDR3M did not cross-react with mdr1 gene product. This monoclonal antibody may be useful for analyzing the role of mdr3 gene product in cells and tissues.     

Point Mutation in the Parkin Gene on Patients with Parkinson''''s Disease

Summary;To investigate the distribution of possible novel mutations from parkin gene in variant sub-set of patients with Parkinson’s disease(PD)in China and explore whether parkin gene plays an im-portant role in the pathogenesis of PD,70 patients were divided into early-onset group and late-onsetgroup; 70 healthy subjects were included as controls.Genomic DNA from 70 normal controls andfrom those of PD patients were extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes by using standard proce-dures.Mutations of parkin gene(exon 1—12)in all the subjects were screened by PCR-single strandconformation polymorphism(SSCP),and further sequencing was performed in tue samples with ab-normal SSCP results,in order to confirm the mutation and its location.A new missense mutationGly284Arg in a patient and 3 abnormal bands in SSCP electrophoresis from samples of another 3 pa-tients were found.All the DNA variants were sourced from the samples of the patients with early-on-set PD.It was concluded that Parkin point mutation a
