The positive unit (PU) was higher in tumor group and cancer group than that in normal group ( P <0.01). Furthermore, the PU of P16 was stronger in cytoplasm than in nucleus. Malignant tumors and acini surrounding the tumor revealed strong positives and week positives respectively. The PU of P16 gene was higher in deep lobe of recurrent parotid neoplasm with incomplete capsule than that in shallow lobe of primary parotid neoplasm with complete capsule. Our findings suggests that P16 gene plays equally important role in the salivary gland tumors and tumors in other part of the body.展开更多

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

Metbods: Using ABC immunohistochemistry method, we investigated the expression of p16 in 72 cases of ovarian neoplasm. Results: The positive rates of p16 in malignant, benign, borderline tumors and normal ovarian tissue were 7. 89%, 60.00%, 66. 67% and 83. 33%, respectively (P<0.01). In the cases whose tumors were more malignant and poorly differentiated, and who relapsed and died, the positive stainings were not discovered. Conclusiou: p16 is well related with the occurrence and development of malignant ovarian tumor.展开更多

AEG-1 down-regulates the expression of the glutamate transporter EAAT2,thus,it is implicated in glutamate-induced excitotoxic damage to neurons as evident in HIV-associated neurodegeneration. Meanwhile,AEG-1 expression is elevated in subsets of breast cancer,prostatic cancer,glioblastoma multiforme and melanoma cells,having a dual specificity phosphatase activity. Overexpression of AEG-1 increases and siRNA inhibition of AEG-1 decreases migration and invasion of human glioma cells,respectively. Recent observations indicate that AEG-1 exerts its effects by activating the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway and AEG-1 is a downstream target of Ha-ras and plays an important role in Ha-ras-mediated tumorigenesis. These findings are intensifying interest in AEG-1 as a crucial regulator of tumor progression and metastasis and as a potential mediator of neurodegeneration.展开更多
