ABSTRACT
Objective:To cultivate human-derived prostate cancer (PCa) cells via conditional reprogramming cell (CRC) technology, and establish individualized cell bank for PCa research in vitro.Methods:We obtained three fresh PCa tissue samples from different patients between January 2019 and April 2019. Then each sample was divided into two parts. One was used for cancer nature confirmation by intraoperative biopsy. Another part was sent to the laboratory and digested into single primary cancer cells with 0.25% EDTA enzyme for CRC technology. The details were described as followed: 1. The primary PCa cells were co-cultured with 3T3-J2 cells irradiated by 30 Gy (feeder cells) in conditioned medium, and observed for the growth of cell clones, 2. The feeder cells were removed by 0.25% EDTA trypsin for 1 minute before primary PCa cells digested for passage. All primary PCa cells were validated by multiple experiments such as immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, immunoblotting and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).Results:Total three cases of human-derived PCa cell lines were successfully established during 15days through CRC technology. All those primary PCa cells could be steadily and continuously passaged, which also expressed AR, CK5, CK18, P504s and PSA. FISH demonstrated that each cell line harbored≥1.6% TMPRSS2/ERG fusion and conformed to the features of PCa.Conclusion:CRC technology can be used for stable and continuous PCa cell culture in vitro.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate and compare the efficacy of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate(HoLEP) and plasmakineticenucleation of the prostate(PKEP) for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods A total of 86 cases of BPH were selected from the Shandong Energy Zibo Mining Group Co.Ltd Central Hospital from January 2013 to June 2014.The patients received either HoLEP (40 cases) or PKEP(46 cases) treatment.Clinical data including postvoid residual volume (PVR),international prostate symptom score(IPSS),quality-of-life score(QOL score),maximum urinary flow rate (MFR) were evaluated before and 3 months after operation.Blood loss in operation,operation time,weight of resected prostate tissue,bladder irrigation time,catheterization time and length of hospital stay were also collected from the perioperative period.Results Three months after surgery,PVR,IPSS,QOL and MFR were all significantly improved in both HoLEP and PKEP groups compared with the data before operation (P =0.000),while there was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).Patients from the HoLEP group showed markedly lower values of bone loss in operation than that of PKEP group((69.5±23.6) ml vs.(87.5±38.0) ml,P=0.011).There were no significant differences in terms of other indexes (P＞ 0.05).Conclusion HoLEP and PKEP have similar efficiency in treating BPH,while HoLEP is suggested superior in regard of bone loss.
