Since dinoflagellates are noted for having many prokaryotic features in that they are the only eukaryotes to have permanently condensed chromosomes as well as lacking histones and a nucleosome, the sensitivity to UVB radiation and the validity of PCNA as a maker of growth rate in dinoflagellate need to be evaluated. Prorocentrum donghaiense Lu was investigated to valuate the UVB sensitivity in relation to cellular and molecular aspects of PCNA as a growth indicator. The effects of UVB radiation on PCNA were studied using the methods of western blots technology and whole-cell immunoflurescence with one mono-antibody. UVB changed the cell morphology, halted the growth and increased the cell size, even caused cell death to a certain extent after treatment with UVB radiation in P. donghaiense. Compared with the control, treating the algal cultures in exponential phases with UVB radiation for 24 h caused chromatin release and increases in protein levels of PCNA.展开更多

The results showed that the carcinoma cells of both tumors revealed a positive immunreaction to PCNA and EGFr. The histochemical observation of mast cell (MC) in both tumor tissues showed that the amount of MC in the surroundings of tumor cell nests was markedly different. According to the amount of the surrounding MCs the tumor cell nests could be divided into two groups : Gourp A with abundant MC infiltration and Group B with only scarce or without MC infiltration. The PCNA-positive cells in the tumor cell nests of both groups were calculated respectively. The results revealed that the amount of PCNA-positive cells in the group B was markedly more than that in the group A. The numerical ratio between two groups was 3 : 1 in the liver carcinoma and 2 : 1 in the stomach carcinoma approximately. An overexpression of EGFr was observed in tumor tissues of both groups , but there was also a marked difference in the amount of positively expressed cells and in the intensity of their staining reaction between both groups. The positively expressed cells in group B were much more and their staining intensity was much stronger than those in group A. According to the above mentioned results of observation, the expression state ofboth factors (PCNA and EGFr) was basically identical, suggesting that the MC may possess some inhibitory effect upon the growth rate of tumor cells of the experimental hepatocellular carcinoma of liver and the squamous cell carcinoma f stomach in rats.展开更多

Methods Fifty male New Zealand rabbits were randomized into two groups, including balloon group and stent group. Control group was set up. The samples were harvested on 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 days after operation and the following investigation was carried out: (1) Assessing the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) of media VSMC by the method of immunohistochemistry; (2) Analyzing apoptosis of media VSMC by DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and TUNEL technique. Results The expression of PCNA and apoptosis in stent and balloon groups were markedly increased compared with control groups. (1) Stent group induced significant increased expression of PCNA in the media VSMC compared with balloon group on 3 to 28 days. On day 7, the positive rates of PCNA were 24. 36±0. 55 % vs 18. 74±1. 09 % ( P < 0. 01 ); (2) From 3 to 28 days, stent group appeared obvious DNA ladder, while balloon group only had little trace ; (3) TUNEL method showed that stent group induced much more significant apoptosis than that of balloon group on 3 to 28 days. The highest rate of apoptosis appeared on day 7: 12. 42 ±1.13% vs 5. 54±0.53% (P<0. 01); (4) By calculating the ratio of the positive rate of PCNA to apoptosis, it showed that on 3 to 28 days, the ratio of balloon group was higher than that of stent group. There was obvious difference between two groups. Conclusions Stent group induces augmented proliferation and much more significant apoptosis of media VSMC than that of balloon group. It makes the ratio of proliferation to apotosis reduced and the severity of restenosis relieved after stent implantation.展开更多
