Methods: Using SP immunohistochemical methods, the expression of pl6, cyclin D1 and Rb proteins was detected in 10 specimens of normal gastric mucosa, 15 specimens of dysplastic gastric mucosa, 15 specimens of intestinal metaplasia gastric mucosa, 30 specimens of gastric carcinoma. The clinical characteristics of the 30 patients with gastric carcinoma were analysed to explore the relationship between the parameter detected and biological action of gastric cancer. Results: Expression of p16 protein was detected in 90% of normal gastric mucosa, 86.67% of dysplastic gastric mucosa, 86.67% of intestinal metaplasia gastric mucosa, 36.67% of gastric carcinoma. The positive rate of p16 protein expression in gastric carcinoma is significantly lower than that in normal gastric mucosa and gastric premalignant lesions mucosa (P<0.01). Expression of cyclin D1 protein was detected in 10% of normal gastric mucosa, 20% of dysplastic gastric mucosa, 20% of intestinal metaplasia gastric mucosa, 53.33% of gastric carcinoma. The positive rate of cyclin D1, protein expression in gastric carcinoma is significantly higher than that in normal gastric mucosa and gastric premalignant lesions mucosa (P<0.05). Expression of Rb protein was detected in 90% of normal gastric mucosa, 80% of dysplastic gastric mucosa, 80% of intestinal metaplasia gastric mucosa, 50% of gastric carcinoma. The positive rate of Rb protein expression in gastric carcinoma is significantly lower than that in normal gastric mucosa (P<0.05). The expression of p16, cyclin D1 gene were associated with the degree of differentiation of gastric carcinoma, lymphnodes metastasis and distant metastasis. Conclusion: p16, Cyclin D1 and Rb gene play important role in gastric carcinoma genesis. The expression of p16, cyclin D1 and Rb gene have some value to the diagnosis at earlier stage of gastric cancer.

HIGF-1 gene modified skeletal myoblasts (hIGF-1-myoblasts) were injected into hind limb muscles of 18 post-infraction rats (experimental group). Primary-myoblasts were injected into 18 post-infraction rats (control group) and 12 non-infarction rats (sham group). Expression of p16INK4a and PCNA pro- tein in myocardiums were separately detected immunocytochemically 1, 2 and 4 weeks after the inuection. The level of hIGF-1 and rIGF-1 protein in serum and myocardium were detected by en- zyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Compared with the sham group, the percentage of p^16INK4a and PCNA positive cells reached a peak after 1 week in the control group and the experimental group (P〈0.01). Moreover, the percentage of p16^INK4a-positive cells in the experimental group was lower than in control group whereas the percentage of PCNA-positive cells was lower in the control group than in the experimental group (P〈0.01). The percentage of p16^INK4a-positive cells in the experimental group and the percentage of PCNA-positive cells in the control group were close to that in the sham group from the 2nd week (P〉0.05). ELISA analysis disclosed that the myocardium level of rIGF-1 protein increased gradually in the controls and especially in the experimental group (P〈0.01). The serum level of rIGF-1 decreased significantly in post-infraction rats, but these conditions were improved in the experimental group (P〈0.01). The hIGF-1 protein in serum and myocar- dium were detected from the 1st week to the 4th week in the experimental group. Statistical analysis revealed significant associations of myocardium level of hIGF-1 protein with expression of p^16INK4a and PCNA protein (r=–0.323, P〈0.05; r=0.647, P〈0.01). It is concluded that genetically hIGF-1-myoblast provides a means for constant synthesis and release of hIGF-1. It could not only improve the expression of rIGF-1 and PCNA protein in myocardium, but also suppress the expression of p16^INK4a protein for 30 days in post-infraction rats. Myoblasts-mediated IGF-1 gene therapy may provide a new alternative for the clinical treatment of heart failure.展开更多

文摘AIM:To investigate the expression of leukemia related protein 16 (LRP16), and the possible relationship between LRP16 expression and clinicopathological indices in 336 gastric carcinoma patients.METHODS: Immunohistochemistry was used to detect LRP16 expression in 336 cases of paraffin-embedded gastric carcinoma tissues and 60 cases of distal normal mucosa. The relationships between LRP16 expression and patients' age, tumor size, histological grade, clinical stage, metastatic status and prognosis were analysed.RESULTS: The expression of LRP16 was 58.6% (197/336) in gastric carcinoma and 31.7% (19/60) in distal normal gastric mucosa. The expression of LRP16 in carcinoma was significantly higher than that in normal mucosa tissues (χ2=14.929, P=0.001). LRP16 protein expression was found in 44.1% (63/143) carcinomas at stage and,and 69.4%(134/193) carcinomas at stage and (χ2=21.804,P=0.001),and in 56.9%(182/320)of cancers without metastasis but 93.8%(15/16)of those with metastasis(χ2=8.543,P=0.003).The expression of LRP16 was correlated with tumor size,infiltrative depth,clinical stage,lymphatic invasion and distant metastasis(all P<0.05). Follow-up data showed that there was a significant difference in median survival time between cancer patients with expression of LRP16 (27.0 mo) and those without (48.0 mo, Log rank=31.644, P=0.001).CONCLUSION: The expression of LRP16 may be associated with invasion, metastasis and prognosis of gastric cancer.

文摘This study examined the change of p16^INK4a and PNCA protein expression in myocardium after injection of hIGF-1 gene modified skeletal myoblasts into post-infarction rats. HIGF-1 gene modified skeletal myoblasts (hIGF-1-myoblasts) were injected into hind limb muscles of 18 post-infraction rats (experimental group). Primary-myoblasts were injected into 18 post-infraction rats (control group) and 12 non-infarction rats (sham group). Expression of p16INK4a and PCNA pro- tein in myocardiums were separately detected immunocytochemically 1, 2 and 4 weeks after the inuection. The level of hIGF-1 and rIGF-1 protein in serum and myocardium were detected by en- zyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Compared with the sham group, the percentage of p^16INK4a and PCNA positive cells reached a peak after 1 week in the control group and the experimental group (P〈0.01). Moreover, the percentage of p16^INK4a-positive cells in the experimental group was lower than in control group whereas the percentage of PCNA-positive cells was lower in the control group than in the experimental group (P〈0.01). The percentage of p16^INK4a-positive cells in the experimental group and the percentage of PCNA-positive cells in the control group were close to that in the sham group from the 2nd week (P〉0.05). ELISA analysis disclosed that the myocardium level of rIGF-1 protein increased gradually in the controls and especially in the experimental group (P〈0.01). The serum level of rIGF-1 decreased significantly in post-infraction rats, but these conditions were improved in the experimental group (P〈0.01). The hIGF-1 protein in serum and myocar- dium were detected from the 1st week to the 4th week in the experimental group. Statistical analysis revealed significant associations of myocardium level of hIGF-1 protein with expression of p^16INK4a and PCNA protein (r=–0.323, P〈0.05; r=0.647, P〈0.01). It is concluded that genetically hIGF-1-myoblast provides a means for constant synthesis and release of hIGF-1. It could not only improve the expression of rIGF-1 and PCNA protein in myocardium, but also suppress the expression of p16^INK4a protein for 30 days in post-infraction rats. Myoblasts-mediated IGF-1 gene therapy may provide a new alternative for the clinical treatment of heart failure.
文摘Objective : To investigate the role and clinical significance of p16 protein in Condyloma Acuminatum (CA) and its cancerization. Methods: The expression of p16 protein was tested in 33 CA samples and 7 cancerized CA samples by immunohistochemical assays. Results: There was abnormal expression of p16 protein in CA and cancerized CA, mainly major protein expression. The p16 protein expresseed in different locations in different cases was as follows: In basal layer cells in normal cuits; in spinous layer, granular layer and stratum corneum layer cells in CA;in keratin pearl peripheral and spinous layer cells in cancerized CA. Conclusion.. There was major expression of p16 protein in CA and cancerized CA, and these protein of the two groups might not naturally be the same. Our study indicated that in clinical practice, when major p16 protein expression in CA occurs, it's risk of cancerization shoud be suspected.
文摘目的探讨在HPV阳性女性中,液基细胞学、DNA倍体分析及P16/Ki-67双染检测对宫颈癌前病变的分流作用。方法回顾性分析2021年5月至2022年12月在我院妇科行阴道镜及宫颈活检的妇女590例。患者高危人乳头瘤病毒(human papilloma virus,HPV)检测阳性,且行液基细胞学(liquid-based cytology,LBC)、DNA倍体分析、P16/Ki-67双染3种检查,对上述3种方法的灵敏度、特异性、受试者工作特征(receiver operating characteristic,ROC)曲线进行统计分析。结果液基细胞学、DNA倍体分析和P16/Ki-67双染3种筛查方法对宫颈癌前病变的灵敏度分别为84.2%、77.5%、76.4%,特异性分别为40.7%、49.2%、70.1%,曲线下面积(area under the curve,AUC)分别是0.625、0.634、0.733,其中,P16/Ki-67双染检测显著优于液基细胞学检查及DNA倍体分析(P<0.0001)。结论本研究认为,在HPV阳性女性中,P16/Ki-67双染检测的分流效果最佳。
