The aims of this study were to investigate their expression in insulinomas and their sole and synergistic effects in modulating abnormal insulin secretion. METHODS:Fasting glucose,insulin and C-peptide were measured in 11 insulinoma patients and 11 healthy controls. Prolonged oral glucose tolerance tests were performed in 6 insulinoma patients.Insulin content,SUR1 and MRP1 were detected in 11 insulinoma patients by immunohistochemistry. SUR1 and MRP1 were also detected in 6 insulinoma patients by immunofluorescence. RESULTS:Insulinoma patients presented the typical demons-trations of Whipple’s triad.Fasting glucose of each insulinoma patient was lower than 2.8 mmol/L,and simultaneous insulin and C-peptide were increased in insulinoma patients. Prolonged oral glucose tolerance tests showed that insulin secretion in insulinoma patients were also stimulated by high glucose.Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence staining showed that SUR1 increased,but MRP1 decreased in insulinoma compared with the adjacent islets. CONCLUSIONS:The hypersecretion of insulin in insulinomas might be,at least partially,due to the enrichment of SUR1. In contrast,MRP1,which is down-regulated in insulinomas, might reflect a negative feedback in insulin secretion.展开更多

Methods: The expression of MRP in 62 cases with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was detected using immunohistochemistry method. The expression of MRP in 30 cases of NSCLC and corresponding normal lung tissues were detected using immunohistochemistry and Western Blot. Results: this study of tumor tissues confirmed the plasma membrane and/or cytoplasm locations of MRP. There was apparent difference between normal lung tissues and NSCLC in MRP. The survival analysis of 62 NSCLC showed that the mean survival time of the patients with negative MRP expression was 69.8117.41 months and that of patients with positive MRP expression, 25.384.46 months. Log-rank test suggested that the difference between them was significant (P=0.0156). It was also found that in squamous cell lung cancer the statistically significant difference between the mean survival time of patients with positive MRP expression and those with negative MRP expression (P=0.0153). Multivariate Cox model analysis suggested that the survival time was significantly related to expression of MRP (P=0.035) and lymphatic metastasis (P=0.038). Conclusion: MRP expression in NSCLC is significantly higher compared with normal lung tissues. The mean survival time of patients with negative MRP was relative longer and expression of MRP was an independent factor for prognosis.展开更多

METHODS:A cohort of 162 patients with surgically resected HCC who received no postsurgical treatment until relapse was studied. Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) was used to evaluate the influence of the G-1666A polymorphism on the binding affinity of the MRP1 promoter with its putative transcription factors. RESULTS:Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with GG homologues had a reduced 4-year disease-free survival compared with those carrying at least one A allele (P = 0.011). Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the-1666GG genotype represented an independent predictor of poorer disease-free survival [hazard ratio (HR) = 3.067,95% confidence interval (CI):1.587-5.952,P = 0.001],and this trend became worse in men (HR = 3.154,95% CI:1.604-6.201,P = 0.001). A similar association was also observed between 4-year overall survival and the polymorphism in men (HR = 3.342,95% CI:1.474-7.576,P = 0.004). Moreover,EMSA suggested that the G allele had a stronger binding affinity to nuclear proteins. CONCLUSION:The MRP1-1666GG genotype predicted a worse outcome and was an independent predictor of poor survival in patients with HCC from Southeast China.展开更多

The present study aims to explore the reversal effect of BM-cyclin 1 on MDR and its mechanisms in BALB/C nude mice bearing C-A120 cells. Irnmunoblotting analysis and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to study the change in multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2) induced by BM-cyclin 1. We found that the expression levels of MRP2 protein and mRNA in C-A120 cells treated with BM-cyclin 1 were reduced significantly. Chemical colorimetry revealed no significant change in the level of glutathione (GSH). In the xenografl model, the inhibitory rate of C-A120 cells growth in BM-cyclin 1 plus adriamycin (ADM) group was 52%, which was significantly higher than in control group (P〈0.01). The immunoblotting and RT-PCR results conclusively demonstrated that BM-cycin 1 could significantly reduce the expression of MRP2 in transplanted tumor. In conclusion, BM-cyclin 1 could effectively reverse the MDR of C-A 120 cells in vivo by suppressing the expression of MRP2.展开更多
