Methods: 151 resected samples, which are pathologically malignant and clinically untreated before operation, were obtained from Anyang Cancer Hospital. All of them were investigated with RT PCR for the expression of mdr 1 gene and correlated each other. Besides, we evaluated the advantages of RT PCR in this study. Results: The mdr 1 gene expression rate of these 151 samples, including cancers of stomach and gastric cardia (n=51), esophagus (n=46), colorectum (n=16), breast (n=15), thyroid (n=10), lung (n=9), uterine cervix (n=4), was 33.3%, 37%, 31.3%, 13.2%, 40%, 55%, 0%, respectively. Conclusion: Compared with other methods, RT PCR for studying mdr 1 gene expression had certain advantages in simplicity, reliability, and accuracy. Overexpression of mdr 1 gene in these neoplasms suggested that cases should be distinguished before treatment according to MDR of tumor and to choose effective drugs for individual cancer patient.展开更多

The cells transfected with MDRl-targeted chitosan/pshRNA plasmid nanoparticles were experimental cells and the cells transfected with chitosan/pGPU6/GFP/Neo no-load plasmid nanoparticles served as negative control cells. Morphological features of the nanoparticles were observed under transmission electron microscope （TEM）. MDR1 mRNA expression was assessed by RT-PCR. Half-inhibitory concentration （IC50） ofpaclitaxel for A2780/TS cells was determined by MTT method. TEM showed that the nanoparticles were round-shaped, smooth in surface and the diameters varied from 80 to 120 nm. The MDR1 mRNA in the transfected cells was significantly decreased by 17.6%, 27.8% and 52.6% on the post-transfection day 2, 4 and 7 when compared with that in A2780/TS cells control （P〈0.05）. MTT assay revealed that the relative reversal efficiency was increased over time and was 29.6%, 51.2% and 61.3% respectively in the transfected cells 2, 4, 7 days after transfection and IC_50 （0.197±0.003, 0.144±0.001, 0.120±0.004） were decreased with difference being significant when compared with that in A2780/TS （0.269±0.003） cells control （P〈0.05）. It was concluded that chitosan/pshRNA plasmid nanoparticles targeting MDR1 can effectively reverse the paclitaxel resistance in A2780/TS cells in a time-dependent manner.展开更多

The virus titer of the supernatants was 1.2×105 cfu/ml. We transfected the murine hematopietic cells collected from 5FU pretreated mice and they showed the ability to reconstitute the longterm hematopoiesis of preirradiated mice. After 4 months, both of bone marrow cells and peripheral blood cells of transplanted mice still contained mdr1 gene. We also transfered mdr1 gene into human bone marrow CD34+ cells selected by using magnetic cell sorting system. PCR analysis showed that transduced CD34+ cells maintained the mdr1 cDNA. A fraction of CFUGM originated from transfected CD34+ cells had the charactor of resistance to Taxol. It is indicated that mdr1 gene can be transduced into murine and human stem/proginitor cells through retroviral mediated gene transfer and it protects the transfected cells from cytotoxic drugs.展开更多

Our purposewas to detect the levels of P-gp expression in fresh untreated esophageal carcinomas, and to correlate these levels to current prognostic indicators of morphology.Methods: Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to investigate mdr-1 gene expression of 46 samples from untreated esophageal carcinoma, and compared the positive incidences among differentiated grades, TNM stages and macroscopic types.Results: All 46 samples were pathologically squamous cell carcinoma. The positive' incidences of mdr-1 gene expression were 37% (17/46) in whole group,35% (6/17), 40% (8/20), 33% (3/9), for Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲdifferentiated grades, respectively. The expression rates of 33% (6/18), 40% (5/12), and 37% (6/16), were found in Ⅱa, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ stage of TNM, respectively. In macroscopic type view, the positive incidence was 37%(3/8) in constrictive, 33% (5/15) in fungating, 40% (6/14)in marrowlike, 33% (319) in ulcerative type. There were no statistically significant differences among each category system of morphology.Conclusion: The result, high level expression of mdr-1 gene in untreated esophageal carcinoma, suggested the poor efficacy of chemotherapy for some esophageal carcinoma patients. And we should cautiously choose cases who will receive chemotherapy. Surgery is still the best treatment for carcinoma of esophagus. Besides, the data also revealed that the expression of mdr-1 gene in untreated esophageal cancer was independent of morphologic prognostic indexes, and that there were no correlation between mdr-1 gene expression and morphological indexes.展开更多
