Methods： To observe MRP-1/C9mRNA expression, tissue microarray （TMA） containing 54 lung cancers and 10 normal lung tissues was prepared and Fluorescence in situ hybridization was used. Results： The positive rate of MRP-1/CD9 expression was 48.1% in lung cancer, lower than that of normal lung tissues. The statistical difference was significant （P〈0.05）. Its protein expression had no relationship with the patients＇ ages, sex and the macroscopic type of tumor, but had relationships with the histological type, clinical stage, differentiated degree and metastasis. The expression in non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC） was higher than that in small cell lung cancer （SCLC）; in well-moderately differentiated group was higher than that in poorly differentiated group; Earlier period group （I＋II） was higher than in later period group （Ⅲ＋Ⅳ）; and in group without lymphoid metastasis was higher than in patients with lymphoid metastasis. Conclusion： The progression of the lung cancer maybe related with the descended MRP-1/Cd9 expression, which may be useful in evaluating the prognosis of cancer patients.展开更多

Methods: Nonradioactive in situ hybridization at electron microscopic level was employed to detected VEGF mRNA in breast cancer. Result: Cancer cells and endothelial cell of angiogensis show dark color in experiment sections. No dark color can be found in control sections. Positive hybridization signals showed dark dot and were located in various compartments of the breast cancer cell and endothelial cell in experiment section. No labeling was observed in control sections. In experiment sections, the staining appeared concentrated in cytoplasm and nucleus of the breast cancer cell and endothelial cell. Conclusion: Nonradioactive in situ hybridization at electron microscopic level is efficient for direct observation of the target site mRNA of VEGF in the cytoplasm and nucleus.展开更多

Of 21 cases of hepatoma , C-myc mRNA was positive-expressed in 9 cases(42. 9 % ) and N-ras positive in 4 cases ( 19% ) in hepatoma cells, and C-myc and N-ras positive in 4 and 1 cases respectively in peritumor hepatocytes. C- myc mRNAs were localized within cytoplasms of both hepatoma cells and peritumor hepatocytes. However , the positive intensities of C-myc and N-ros mRNAs in hepatoma cells were much greater than those in peritumor hepatocytes. The results indicated that Cmyc and N-ras oncogenes were overexpressed in HCC, and may play an important role in coordinatively maintaince of the malignant phenotypes in HCC.展开更多

This technique can be applied to small amounts of materials in which a whole view of CaM mRNA distribution can be obtained. The authors revealed that CaM mRNA expression changes dramatically before and after fertilization. Especially interesting is that a prominent CaM mRNA band appears between the egg apparatus and polar nuclei temporarily during the period of pollination and fertilization. The band disappears just prior to fertilization and expands to a fan_shaped region that occupies the micropylar portion of the embryo sac. After fertilization, CaM mRNA accumulates in the elongated zygotes with higher concentration in their chalazal portion than in the micropylar portion. Such an asymmetrical pattern continues to manifest in the early proembryos. It is supposed that CaM mRNA may be involved in the early events and signaling steps associated with double fertilization and zygote polarization in higher plants.展开更多

Research on gene expression and regulation during zebrafish embryonic development plays an important role in revealing the molecular mechanism of morphogenesis in vertebrate. Tubulin locates the cytoplasmic determinants in eggs, organizes the formation of basic cytoskeleton and controls various cell movements. There are several types of tubulin, each of which has specific expression regions and functions. In this study, the full_length cDNA of a Xenopus β 2 tubulin was used as template to generate Dig_labeled antisense RNA which was used as a probe to carry out in situ hybridization on whole mount zebrafish embryos. Under the experimental conditions, the tubulin transcript was first detected in a group of cells in embryos at the midblastula stage. With the development of the embryo, this transcript was gradually restricted to the nervous system. These results demonstrate that the expression of this β 2 tubulin gene in zebrafish embryos is neural specific.展开更多
