Suppression of Gl Arrest and Enhancement of G2 Arrest by Inhibitors of Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase: Possible Involvement of Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation in Cell Cycle Arrest Following γ-Irradiation

Low-dose γ-irradiation of mouse embryonic fibroblast C3D2F1 3T3-a cells caused Gl arrest along with G2 arrest and inhibition of replicative DNA synthesis. When the cells were cultured in the presence of inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase [EC 2.4.2.30], such as 3-aminobenzamide, benzamide and luminol, Gl arrest of C3D2F1 3T3-a cells was suppressed and enhancement of G2 arrest was observed. In contrast, 3-aminobenzoic acid, a non-inhibitory analog of 3-aminobenzamide, did not suppress Gl arrest following γ-irradiation. These results suggest that the poly(ADP-ribosyDation reaction is critical for the pathway of Gl arrest and is also involved in the pathway of G2 arrest.     

Correlation of Nuclear Morphometry and Immunostaining for p53 and Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen in Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Bladder

Background :
In an attempt to determine the biological significance of nuclear morphometric findings, measurements of mean nuclear volume (MNV) and nuclear roundness factor (NRF) were compared to the immunoreactivityof p53 expression and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in human bladder cancer.
Methods :
MNV and NRF were measured using stereological methods. Expression of p53 and PCNA were determined by immunohistochemical staining. Specimens from 111 patients with previously untreated bladder cancer were analyzed.
Results :
The mean MNV was 235.8 ± 1 33.6 μm³ for the 81 patients with p53-labeling index (LI) less than 10% and 337.2 ± 141.0 μn³ for the 30 patients with p53 LI greater than 10% (P = 0.008). There was Resign if icant correlation between NRF and expression of p53. The mean MNV was 220.1 ± 1 20.5 μm³ for the 67 patients with PCNA LI less than 28% (the mean value of PCNA LI) and 328.9 ± 149.2 μm³ in 44 patients with PCNA LI greater than 28% (P= 0.0001). The mean NRF was 80.7 ± 4.2 for the 67 patients with PCNA LI less than 28%, and 82.3 ± 3.4 for the 44 patients with PCNA LI more than 28% (P= 0.04). Conclusion: Nuclear morphometric findings may reflect the proliferative potential of cancer eel Is of the bladder, as indicated by findings of immunostaining for p53 and PCNA.     

The isolated spinal cord-skin preparation of the newborn rat and effects of some algogenic and analgesic substances

We have developed an isolated spinal cord-skin preparation of the newborn rat. The spinal cord together with a piece of skin connected to the cord by the saphenous nerve was isolated from 1- to 4-day-old rats and separately superfused with artificial cerebrospinal fluid in two neighbouring chambers. Potentials were recorded extracellularly from the third lumbar ventral root. Application of capsaicin (0.5-2 μM) or KCl (60–350 mM) with brief pressure pulses to the perfusion bath of the skin evoked a depolarizing response of 20- to 40-s duration in the ventral root. The response was depressed by [Met⁵]enkcphalin (0.03–3 μM). morphine (0.1–2 μM) and a tachykinin antagonist, [D-Arg¹,D-Trp^7,9,Leu¹¹] substance P (spantide), 1–10 μM), applied to the spinal cord by superfusion, whereas the response was augmented by centrally administered calcitonin gene-related peptide (0.1–0.2 μM) or bicuculline (0.5–1 μM).     

泪腺肿瘤中P53蛋白表达的意义

目的了解P53基因在泪腺肿瘤的表达及其临床病理学意义。方法应用免疫组织化学ABC法检测57例泪腺上皮性肿瘤患者和10例正常人泪腺组织中P53蛋白的表达情况，并与病理分级、复发相联系。结果10例正常人泪腺组织中P53表达全部为阴性；恶性肿瘤患者的表达率为48．6％，良性肿瘤中P53达率为18％，二者相比有显著性差异（P＜0．025）；复发患者阳性率为76．9％，明显高于未复发患为31．8％（P＝0．015）。结论P53基因参与了泪腺肿瘤的发生发展并与肿瘤的分化和复发有关。     

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.
