RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the relevance between the promoter methylation status of Notch1 gene and the invasive ductal carcinoma and ductal hyperplastic lesions of the breast.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Methylation status of Notch1 gene in human breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC, n = 89), ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS, n = 20), atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH, n = 11) and usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH, n = 20) were quantitatively evaluated by MALDI-TOF MS. The expression of Notch1 protein was detected by immunohistochemical stain (SP method).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Positive expression rates of Notch1 protein in IDC and DCIS were 91.0% (81/89) and 75.0% (15/20), respectively, which were significantly higher than those of ADH (4/11) and UDH (30.0%, 6/20;P < 0.05). Notch1 protein expression was correlated significantly with lymph node metastasis, pathological grades and TNM stages of IDC. The mean methylation levels of Notch1 gene at CpG_3, CpG_4.5 and CpG_8 significantly decreased in IDC group compared with those of DCIS, ADH and UDH groups (P < 0.0083). In breast carcinomas, the mean methylation rates of Notch1 gene at CpG_4.5, CpG_10.11, and CpG_14.15.16 loci in cases with axillary node metastasis were significantly lower than those without axillary node metastasis (P < 0.05); and the methylation rates at CpG_14.15.16 and CpG_18 loci in stage Iwere lower than that in stage II, further lower than that in stage III (P < 0.05); and that in CpG_1.2, CpG_12.13 loci in grade I (highly-differentiated group) were higher than that in grade II (moderate-differentiated group) and grade III (poorly-differentiated group) (P < 0.05); and the methylation rates at CpG_3, CpG_8 and CpG_14.15.16 loci in ER(+) PR(+) HER2(-) group were lower than that in ER(-) PR(-) HER2(+) group (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>There is an overall hypomethylation of Notch1 gene in breast invasive ductal carcinomas with corresponding over-expression of Notch1 protein. This inverse correlation show that the alteration of protein expression result from hypomethylation oncogene Notch1, and this change may have important significance in breast tumorigenesis and the development. Specific hypomethylation at CpG_3, CpG_ 4.5 and CpG_8 loci of Notch1 gene may play a role in the pathogenesis of breast carcinoma, suggesting the progression and/or malignant transformation from benign glandular lesions of the breast.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>AIM</b>CCK is one of the strongest endogenous anti-opioid substances and suppresses morphine tolerance which results from long term use of morphine. This study explores the modulatory effect of CCK on pain formalin-induced.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The effect of formalin-induced pain on CCK immunoreactivity in rat sensory neurons was observed through immunohistochemistry technique.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After 1 h of subcutaneous injection of formalin in one paw of rats, the number of positive neurons of CCK immunoreactivity in spinal cord neurons was obviously increased and greater than that of non-injection side (P <0.01). The semi-quantitative optical density average values of CCK immunoreactivity neurons were 0.397 +/- 0.014 and 0.295 +/- 0.007 in injection side and non-injection side respectively, the difference was obvious (P < 0.01). After 3 h of subcutaneous injection of formalin in one paw of rats, the semi-quantitative optical density average values of CCK immunoreactivity neurons were 0.366 +/- 0.009 and 0.303 +/- 0.005 in injection side and noninjection side respectively, the difference was significant (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Formalin-induced pain can significantly change semi-quantitative optical density average value of CCK immunoractivity in spinal cord neurons, this indicates CCK participates in modulation of pain.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Previous cytogenetic studies revealed aberrations varied among the three subtypes of rhabdomyosarcoma. We profiled chromosomal imbalances in the different subtypes and investigated the relationships between clinical parameters and genomic aberrations.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Comparative genomic hybridization was used to investigate genomic imbalances in 25 cases of primary rhabdomyosarcomas and two rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines. Specimens were reviewed to determine histological type, pathological grading and clinical staging.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Changes involving one or more regions of the genome were seen in all rhabdomyosarcomal patients. For rhabdomyosarcoma, DNA sequence gains were most frequently (> 30%) seen in chromosomes 2p, 12q, 6p, 9q, 10q, 1p, 2q, 6q, 8q, 15q and 18q; losses from 3p, 11p and 6p. In aggressive alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, frequent gains were seen on chromosomes 12q, 2p, 6p, 2q, 4q, 10q and 15q; losses from 3p, 6p, 1q and 5q. For embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma, frequent gains were on 7p, 9q, 2p, 18q, 1p and 8q; losses only from 11p. Frequently gained chromosome arms of translocation associated with rhabdomyosarcoma were 12q, 2, 6, 10q, 4q and 15q; losses from 3p, 6p and 5q. The frequently gained chromosome arms of nontranslocation associated with rhabdomyosarcoma were 2p, 9q and 18q, while 11p and 14q were the frequently lost chromosome arms. Gains on chromosome 12q were significantly correlated with translocation type. Gains on chromosome 9q were significantly correlated with clinical staging.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Gains on chromosomes 2p, 12q, 6p, 9q, 10q, 1p, 2q, 6q, 8q, 15q and 18q and losses on chromosomes 3p, 11p and 6p may be related to rhabdomyosarcomal carcinogenesis. Furthermore, gains on chromosome 12q may be correlated with translocation and gains on chromosome 9q with the early stages of rhabdomyosarcoma.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the Notch1 mRNA and protein expression in human breast cancers and normal mammary tissues, and their relationship with the clinical indicators of breast cancers were analyzed.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Notch1 gene of human breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and normal mammary gland tissues were amplified by RT-PCR, and the expression of Notch1 protein was detected by immunohistochemical Streptavidin-Biotin Complex (SP) stain in 60 IDC, 30 ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and 60 normal mammary tissues.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Notch1 gene of human IDC and normal mammary tissues both could express in a transcription level; the positive rates of Notch1 protein expression in normal mammary tissues and DCIS were 55% and 70%. Respectively, which did not differ statistically (P > 0.05), while the positive rate in IDC was 90%, significantly higher than that of the normal mammary tissues and DCIS (P < 0.05). The high expression of Notch1 protein in IDC correlate significantly with lymph node metastasis, pathological grades and TNM stages.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Notch1 protein was over expressed in breast IDC. A high Notch1 protein expression is considered associating with the evolution and malignant transformation of the breast tumor. The expression of Notch1 gene maybe impact the effect of on the progression of breast cancers.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To characterize the profile of chromosomal imbalances of rhabdomyosarcoma(RMS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to investigate genomic imbalances in 25 cases of primary RMS including 10 cases of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARM), 12 cases of embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS), 3 cases of polymorphic rhabdomyosarcoma (PRMS) and 2 RMS cell lines (A240 originated from ARMS and RD from PRMS), with correlation to histological type, pathologic grading, clinical staging, gender and age, respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All twenty-five rhabdomyosarcomas showed evidence of increased or decreased DNA sequence copy numbers involving one or more regions of the genome. (1) The frequently gained chromosome regions in RMS were 2p, 12q, 6p, 9q, 10q, 1p, 2q, 6q, 8q, 15q, 18q, and the frequently lost chromosome regions were 3p, 11p, 6p. (2) The frequently gained chromosome arms in ARMS were 12q, 2p, 6, 2q, 4q, 10q, 15q. The frequently lost chromosome arms were 3p, 6p, 1q, 5q. The frequently gained chromosome regions in ERMS were 7p, 9q, 2p, 18q, 1p, 8q. The frequently lost chromosome arms in ERMS were 11p. (3) The frequently gained chromosome arms in translocation associated RMS were 12q, 2, 6, 10q, 4q and 15q (> 30%), 3p, 6p, 5q (> 30%) were the frequently loss chromosome arms. The frequently gained chromosome regions in non-translocation associated RMS were 2p, 9q, 18q (> 30%), and 11p, 14q (> 30%) were the frequently loss chromosome regions. Gain of 12q was significantly correlated with the translocation-associated tumors (P < 0.05). (4) Gains of 9q was significantly correlated with clinical staging (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Gain of 2p, 12q, 6p, 9q, 10q, 1p, 2q, 6q, 8q, 15q, 18q and loss of 3p, 11p, 6p may be involved in the tumorigenesis of RMS. Gains of 12q may be correlated with gene fusion/chromosomal translocation in ARMS. Gains of 9q may be correlated with an early tumor stage of RMS.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the clinicopathologic features and immunophenotype of renal cell carcinomas, and to discuss their diagnostic value.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinicopathologic features of 114 cases of renal cell carcinoma were reviewed and categorized on the basis of 2004 WHO classification. Immunohistochemical study for a panel of antibodies (including CK, CD10, vimentin, CD117, AMACR, CK7 and TFE3) was carried out. The follow-up data, if available, were also analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The cases were reclassified into 5 subtypes, including 77 cases (67.5%) of clear cell carcinoma (CCRCC), 11 cases (9.6%) of papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC), 14 cases (12.3%) of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (chrRCC), 10 cases (8.8%) of renal carcinoma associated with Xp11.2 translocations/TFE3 gene fusions (Xp11.2RCC) and 2 cases (1.8%) of unclassified renal cell carcinoma (unRCC). Immunohistochemical study showed that the expression rates of CK, CD10 and vimentin in CCRCC were 93.5% (72/77), 93.5% (72/77) and 75.3% (58/77), respectively. On the other hand, all the 11 cases of PRCC studied were positive for AMACR. The expression rate of CD117 in chrRCC was 78.5% (11/14). In the 10 cases of Xp11.2 RCC studied, the expression rates of TFE3, AMACR, CD10 and CK were 100% (10/10), 100% (10/10), 90% (9/10) and 70% (7/10), respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The various subtypes of renal cell carcinomas are heterogeneous in histologic appearance and demonstrate distinctive immunophenotype. The expressions of CD10, vimentin, CD117, AMACR, CK7 and TFE3 are helpful in the differential diagnosis.</p>

The proportion of Arg/Arg was higher in cervical carcinomas than that in control. The omni-constituent ratio of p53 genotype was statistically different between cervical carcinoma and normal control groups in Han (chi(2) = 8.231, P < 0.025). The proportion of Pro/Pro was higher in cervical carcinoma than that in normal control. The omni-constituent ratio was statistically different between HPV 16 positive and negative groups of cervical carcinoma in the Uigur group (chi(2) = 7.177, P < 0.05). The proportion of Arg/Arg was higher in HPV 16 positive group than that in HPV 16 negative group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>p53 Arg72Pro polymorphism may be associated with the development of cervical carcinoma in Uigur and Han women in Xinjiang. p53 Arg/Arg genotype may be a genetically susceptible factor to HPV-associated cervical carcinoma in Uigur. p53 Pro/Pro genotype may be a genetically susceptible factor to cervical carcinoma in Han. There may be different susceptibilities to cervical cancer between Uigur and Han women in Xinjiang.</p>

RESUMEN

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the significance of detecting chimeric mRNA resulting from t(X;17)(p11.2;q25) in paraffin-embedded tumor tissues of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor tissues from 8 cases of alveolar soft part sarcoma and 15 cases of controls (including 6 alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas, 6 renal cell carcinomas, 2 paragangliomas and 1 granular cell myoblastoma) were retrieved from the archival materials. ASPL-TFE3 fusion transcripts were analyzed in all samples by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The quality of the mRNA was assessed using the house-keeping gene beta-actin.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>ASPL-TFE3 fusion transcripts were detected in 6 of the 8 ASPS cases (4 being type 2 and 2 being type 1). The remaining 2 cases were negative for both beta-actin and ASPL-TFE3. No ASPL-TFE3 mRNA expression was detected in all the controls. PAX3/7-FKHR fusion transcripts were also detected in 4 of the 6 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma samples.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The expression of ASPL-TFE3 fusion transcripts in paraffin-embedded tumor tissues can serve as an useful molecular marker in the diagnosis of ASPS. It may also be helpful in elucidating the underlying pathogenesis of ASPS in subsequent retrospective studies.</p>
