Chemokine receptor CCR6 as a prognostic factor after hepatic resection for hepatocellular carcinoma

Background and Aims: Chemokines and their receptors have recently been shown to have major roles in cancer metastasis. The aim of this study was to determine whether the interaction between chemokine receptor 6 (CCR6) and its ligand, macrophage inflammatory protein‐3 alpha (MIP‐3α), correlates with metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: To observe the reaction of CCR6 expressed cancer cells to MIP‐3α stimulation, chemotactic and actin polymerization assays for both CCR6 high cells (HepG2) and CCR6 low cells (MCF‐7) were performed. CCR6 mRNA levels in tumor specimens from 30 HCC patients were quantified by real‐time polymerase chain reaction. Patients were classified into two groups, high (≥ 20 copies; n = 10) CCR6 and low (<20 copies; n = 20) CCR6 on the basis of CCR6 expression, and the groups were compared with respect to clinicopathological features. Results: When HepG2 cells (CCR6 high) were stimulated with MIP‐3α, they migrated in a dose‐dependent manner, and formation of pseudopodia was observed. These phenomena were not observed in the CCR6 low cells. The incidence of intrahepatic metastasis was higher in the high CCR6 expression group than in the low CCR6 expression group (P < 0.05). Disease‐free survival was significantly poorer in the high CCR6 expression group than in the low CCR6 expression group (P < 0.05). Conclusions: It was indicated that CCR6 might be associated with intrahepatic metastasis of HCC and might be able to become one of the prognostic factor after hepatic resection for HCC.

The effect of quinidine on the analgesic effect of codeine

Summary We have studied the hypoalgesic effect of codeine (100 mg) after blocking the hepatic O-demethylation of codeine to morphine via the sparteine oxygenase (CYP2D6) by quinidine (200 mg). The study was performed in 16 extensive metabolizers of sparteine, using a double-blind, randomized, four-way, cross-over design. The treatments given at 3 h intervals during the four sessions were placebo/placebo, quinidine/placebo, placebo/codeine, and quinidine/codeine. We measured pin-prick pain and pain tolerance thresholds to high energy argon laser stimuli before and 1, 2, and 3 h after codeine or placebo.After codeine and placebo, the peak plasma concentration of morphine was 6–62 (median 18) nmol·.l^–1. When quinidine pre-treatment was given, no morphine could be detected (<4 nmol·l^–1) after codeine. The pin-prick pain thresholds were significantly increased after placebo/codeine, but not after quinidine/codeine compared with placebo/placebo. Both placebo/codeine and quinidine/codeine increased pain tolerance thresholds significantly. Quinidine/codeine and quinidine/placebo did not differ significantly for either pin-prick or tolerance pain thresholds.These results are compatible with local CYP2D6 mediated formation of morphine in the brain, not being blocked by quinidine. Alternatively, a hypoalgesic effect of quinidine might have confounded the results.     

Pathogenesis of progressive muscular dystrophy: studies on free radical metabolism in an animal model

Evidence to suggest the presence of abnormal metabolism of oxygen free radicals in progressive muscular dystrophy is presented using an animal model. In the superficial pectoral muscles of dystrophic chickens, enzyme activities regulating the metabolism of oxygen free radicals, i.e., catalase, superoxide dismutases and glutathione peroxidase, were significantly elevated within 1 week of hatching. Activities of related enzymes, i.e., glutathione reductase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase were also elevated. In contrast, the specific activity of phosphofructokinase, the rate-limiting enzyme of the glycolytic pathway, was normal during the first 4-week period. These results suggest that there is an increased turnover of oxygen free radicals in the dystrophic muscle. This concept appears important in a further investigation of the pathogenesis and treatment of progressive muscular dystrophies.

Effect of 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of the amygdala on intravenous cocaine self-administration under a progressive ratio schedule of reinforcement

Bilateral six-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesions were placed in the amygdala of rats self-administering cocaine (1.5 mg/kg per injection i.v.) under a progressive ratio schedule of reinforcement. Post-lesion access to three doses of cocaine (1.5, 0.75 and 0.37 mg/kg per injection i.v.) revealed a lesion effect only at the highest dose. At this dose, the lesion caused a significant increase in breaking point. No change in the breaking point was produced at the lower two doses. The biochemical results show a significant reduction in dopamine and DOPAC levels within the amygdala and an increase in dopamine within the NACC. In contrast, noradrenaline and serotonin (5-HT) levels were unaffected by the lesion in any of the dissected areas. These results demonstrate that no specific effect on cocaine reinforcement was produced by 6-OHDA lesions of the amygdala. The possibility that the lesion may have attenuated the anxiogenic qualities of the high dose of cocaine is discussed.     

肝动脉化疗栓塞对肝癌细胞黏附分子CD44v6和ICAM-1表达的影响

目的:研究肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma,HCC)经导管肝动脉化疗栓塞(transcatheter arterial chemoemboli-zation,TACE)后残癌组织细胞黏附分子CD44v6和ICAM-1(intercelluar adhesion molecule-1,ICAM-1)的表达情况。方法:经病理证实的HCC 50例,包括单纯手术切除30例(对照组),TACE术后行Ⅱ期手术切除20例(TACE组)。TACE组患者术前接受1~2次不等的TACE治疗,均按统一规范标准给予化疗药物灌注+栓塞治疗。对标本行免疫组织化学PV-9000染色,其中TACE组取病灶边缘残存肿瘤部分,检测肿瘤组织CD44v6和ICAM-1的表达,将两组结果进行对照分析。结果:对照组和TACE组CD44v6和ICAM-1均有不同程度的表达。对照组CD44v6表达阳性22例(22/30,73.33%),TACE组CD44v6表达阳性13例(13/20,65%),两者间无显著性差异(P>0.05);对照组ICAM-1表达阳性19例(19/30,63.33%),TACE组ICAM-1表达阳性12例(12/20,60%),两者间亦无显著性差异(P>0.05)。对照组和TACE组中CD44v6和ICAM-1表达间均呈正相关(P<0.05)。结论:TACE术后残癌组织CD44v6和ICAM-1仍有较高的表达,TACE并不能有效降低肝癌组织CD44v6和ICAM-1的表达;两者表达呈正相关。
