Expression of pS2, c-erbB-2, and cathepsin D during the menstrual cycle in human breast cancers

Background: Many studies have addressed the effect of the timing of surgery for breast cancer relative to menstrual cycle phase, with conflicting results. Explanations for the possibility that survival could be altered by the appropriate timing of breast cancer surgery in humans remain speculative. Methods: We examined the expression of three estrogen related proteins (c-erbB-2, cathepsin D, pS2) in the breast tumors from 69 premenopausal women sampled in different phases of the menstrual cycle. Data on S-phase fraction and hormone receptor expression were also analyzed. Immunohistochemical assays were used to measure the proteins of interest. S-phase fraction was determined by flow cytometry. Analyses were performed based on fraction of cells staining positive for the protein, density of stain, and a histoscore that combined both fraction of positive cells and density. Results: We found no differences in c-erbB-2, cathepsin D, hormone receptor, or S-phase levels in tumors sampled in the follicular versus luteal phase, or perimenstrual versus periovulatory phase. The exception was pS2, which was expressed at greater levels during the luteal than during the follicular phase of the cycle (p<0.01); but there was no difference in pS2 expression when the patients were classified as periovulatory versus perimenstrual. Conclusions: Our findings do not support a variation in c-erbB-2, cathepsin D, S-phase fraction, or receptor expression as an explanation for the differences in breast cancer prognosis when surgery is timed by menstrual cycle phase. The finding that pS2 (an indicator of hormone sensitivity, and possibly better prognosis) is expressed at higher levels in tumor samples during the luteal phase suggests that the biologic profile of breast tumors may vary with the menstrual cycle and that these variations deserve further study.     

Relation Between Cycle Length, Volume, and Pressure in Type I Atrial Flutter

Assuming that type I atrial flutter is a macroreentrant circuit, its cycle length should vary with the atrial dimensions. In order to test this hypothesis, flutter cycle length was measured while inducing atrial volume and pressure changes by postural and pharmacological means in seven patients undergoing a therapeutic programmed stimulation for type 1 atrial flutter conversion. Right atrial volume was estimated from B-mode echocardiography data. Basal values were compared with those obtained during inspiration, expiration, Valsalva maneuver, negative tilt (head down), and positive tilt (head up) with 0.8–1.6 mg p.o. nitroglycerin. The right atrial size increased slightly from 17.8 to 18.3 cm² (P = 0.04) during the pressure load induced by negative tilt (+ 3 mmHg), with a corresponding lengthening of the flutter cycle length from 228 to 233 msec (P = 0.02). Similarly, pressure unloading of -2 mmHg by positive tilting and nitrates was accompanied by a decrease in right atrial size to 16.6 cm² (P = 0.04), with a corresponding decrease in cycle length from 228 to 219 msec (P = 0.03). Respiratory maneuver yielded similar results with an inspiratory cycle lengthening, expiratory shortening, and further shortening during Valsalva maneuver. These experiments demonstrate a direct relation between cycle length and atrial volume in human type I atrial flutter. They underline the importance of the right heart preload and atrial size for the electrophysiological characteristics of type I atrial flutter. Beside its fundamental interest, this finding is important for the understanding of the mechanism of maintenance and therapeutic responses of this common arrhythmia.

Clinical outcomes of two different endometrial preparation methods for cryopreserved-thawed embryo transfer in patients with a normal menstrual cycle

Aim:  To compare the clinical outcomes of cryopreserved-thawed embryo transfer among patients with a normal menstrual cycle who had natural or hormone-replacement cycles.
Methods:  From January 2004 to June 2006, cryopreserved embryos following conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) were thawed and transferred in a total of 720 natural cycles and 136 hormone-replacement cycles.
Results:  Cryopreserved-thawed embryo transfer in patients who had a natural or hormone-replacement cycle resulted in clinical pregnancy in 43.1% and 40.4%, respectively; a rate of miscarriage of 14.5% and 23.6%, respectively; and a rate of ongoing pregnancy and delivery of 36.5% and 30.9%, respectively. None of these differences were statistically significant.
Conclusions:   Patients with a normal menstrual cycle who have natural or hormone-replacement cycles can be expected to have comparable clinical outcomes with cryopreserved-thawed embryo transfer. (Reprod Med Biol 2007; 6 : 53–57)     

低浓度5-Fu24-小时持续化疗对BEL-7402肝癌细胞株的细胞周期的影响

目的研究低浓度5-Fu 24-小时持续化疗和高浓度5-Fu短时间化疗对BEL-7402肝癌细胞株的细胞周期的影响：方法用低浓度(1000．0μg/L)的5．Fu对BEL-7402肝癌细胞株进行持续24小时的培养(A组)，用高浓度(50000．0μg/L)的5-Fu对BEL-1 7402肝癌细胞株进行2小时培养(B组)，在培养后的不同时间点用流式细胞技术检测细胞周期的变化。结果A组结果显示：0h、4h、8h、12h、16h、20h和24h的S期细胞的百分数分别为25.23％、32．35％、39．28％、41．05％、46．02％、47．00％及47．14％。B组结果显示：0h、4h、8h、12h、16h、20h和24h的S期细胞的百分数分别为24．68％、68．43％、46．67％、43．67％、35．42％、33．22％及32．96％。结论5-Fu引起的S期细胞周期阻滞不但和浓度相关，也和作用时间相关。低浓度(1000．0μg/L)的5-Fu持续化疗较高浓度(50000．0μg/L)的5-Fu短时间(2小时)化疗更容易引起BEL-7402肝癌细胞株S期阻滞。

流式细胞光度术在鼻咽癌上皮样细胞株细胞周期动力学研究中的应用

本实验应用流式细胞光度术研究鼻咽癌上皮样细胞株（ＣＮＥ）的细胞周期动力学。结果发现ＣＮＥ细胞仍保持原代细胞的ＤＮＡ含量水平（超三倍体和亚四倍体），随着细胞接种时间的延长细胞周期中Ｇ０／Ｇ１时相细胞的百分数逐渐升高，而Ｓ％和Ｇ２＋Ｍ％则逐渐降低。该项研究还发现随着孵育时间的延长，细胞周期中各时相细胞的运动均逐渐延缓，其中以Ｇ０／Ｇ１和Ｇ２＋Ｍ时相细胞的运动减慢较为明显。
