DCs were generated from mouse bone marrow in the presence of rmGM-CSF (3.3 ng/mL) and rmIL-4 (1.3 ng/mL) and detected by FACS, and then transfecled with the recombinant adenovirus encoding mutant k ras gene. The efficacy of transfection and T cell stimulating activity of DCs were detected. CTL activity of the mice vaccinated with DCs was observed. The resuhs showed thai DCs had dendritic veiled morphology. BmDCs highly expressed B7-1(80%), B7-2(77%), MHC Ⅱ (70%), CDllc (65%), CD40 (70%) and CD54 (96%) with FACS, and no significant difference in the expression was observed before and after the transfection (P〈0.05). The DCs transfeeled by mutant k-ras gene could significantly stimulate lymphoeytes proliferation as compared with those transfeeted by Ad e or non-modified DCs (P〈0.05). DC vaccine transfected by mutant k-ras gene could induce CTL activity against Lewis lung cancer, but not against B16. The specific eytotoxicity against Lewis lung cancer in Ad-k-ras/12-transdueed DC group was signifieantly higher than those in the control, vector and non transfeeted DCs groups (P〈0.05). It was concluded that special antitumor response could be induced by DCs transfected with recombinant adenovirus carrying mutant k-ras genes.展开更多

Three different special sequence primers (SSP) synthesized according to mutation styles of CGT, GTT, GAT were respectively prepared. Three amplification reactions were performed for each sample. The amplification products were analyzed by conventional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, stained with ethidium bromide and observed under UV transillumination. Results: All of the 34 pancreatic adenocarcinoma samples had positive PCR results with the mutation rate 100%. 7 cases were CGT mutation, 18 GGT and 17 GAT mutation, in which 2 types of mutation existed in 8 cases. No mutation appeared in 13 normal pancreatic tissues, 6 insulinomas, 6 chronic pancreatitis, 5 benign pancreatic cysts, 7 bile duct carcinoma, 5 ampulla carcinoma and 4 carcinomas of duodenal papilla. Conclusion: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the commonly encounted tumors and is still very difficult to diagnose at the early stage and to distinguish from other lesions preoperatively. Our study indicates that PCR SSP is an ideal assay in comparison with other methods to detect K ras gene mutation. It is simple, rapid, specific, sensitive and easily generalized for clinical application on preoperative diagnosis.展开更多

Methods:In 47 cases of IM, exons 5- 8 of p53 and exons 15 of APC were examined with PCR-SSCP and codon 12 of K-ras with PCR-RFLP to detect the existence of any mutations of these structures. Results:Muta- tions of p53, APC and K-ras were found in 29.8% (14/47),6.4% (3/47) and 6.4% (3/47) respectively in our series of patients who consisted of 33 with types I and II and 14 with type III of IM. The mutation rate of p53 was far higher in patients with type III IM (57.1%,8/14) than in those with types I and II IM(18.2%,6/33)(P <0.05). Though the mutation rate of APC and K-ras was also higher in the patients with type III IM than in those with types I and II IM, it was of no statistical significance (P >0.05). In one case of type III IM, mutation of both p53 and K-ras was found. Conclusion: The molecular changes of 3 types of IM are different. The mutation of p53 may be closely related to carcinogenesis in cases of type III IM and it serve as a sign for the early diagnosis of gastric carcinoma.展开更多
