RESUMEN
Objective To study the expression of pl6, FHIT genes in cervical carcinoma and its clinical significance. Methods By immunohistochemistry SP method, the expression of pl6, FHIT in different 118 cases of cervical lesions were detected and the results were analyzed in combination with clinical pathological features. Results Of 118 patients, 15 cases suffered cervicitis;38 cases took place cervical tumor-like changes;65 cases caught cervical cancer. p16 expression rates were 0, 33.3 %, 70.0 %, 87.5 %,and 92.3 % respectively;while FHIT expression rates were 73.3 %, 75.5 %, 60.0 %, 37.5%, and 30.8 % respectively. Compared with cervicitis, pl6 and FHIT expression rates in the cervix tumor-like changes,cervical carcinoma had significant difference (P <0.05). There was positive correlation in protein expression between p16 and FHIT (x2 =33.33, P <0.001). Conclusion Combination of p16, FHIT detection can be used as early diagnostic tool of cervical lesions and cervical cancer markers;meanwhile, the method can serve as a clinical evaluation of tumor biological behavior and prognosis of auxiliary indexes.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the effect of radiotherapy on the FHIT protein expression and cell apoptosis of cervical squamous carcinoma and discuss the relationship between FHIT protein expression and cell apoptosis. Methods:Expression of FHIT protein was measured by immunohistochemical method and cell apoptosis was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP terminal nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining in 50 cases of squamous cell cervical carcinoma at ⅡB-ⅢB stages before, during (Dt 10 Gy and Dt 30 Gy), and after radiotherapy. Results:Of the 50 patients, the positive rates of the expression of FHIT protein was 56% at Dt 10 Gy, 68% at Dt 30 Gy, and 84% after radiotherapy, which were significantly increased compared with that before radiotherapy (36%, P<0.05). The positive rates of cell apoptosis was 52% at Dt 10 Gy, 64% at Dt 30 Gy and 78% after radiotherapy, which were significantly elevated compared with that before radiotherapy (28%, P<0.05). In the process of radiotherapy, cell apoptosis was positively related to the expression of FHIT protein (P<0.05). Conclusion:Radiotherapy reinforces the expression of FHIT protein and induces apoptosis cocurrently. FHIT protein has regulatory effects in cell apoptosis induced by radiotherapy.
RESUMEN
AIM: To optimize the extraction process of the total flavonoids of Pollen typhae. METHODS: The optimum extraction process was selected with the orthogonal design (L 27 (3 13 )), using the contents of typhaneoside and isorhamnetin 3 O neohesperidoside as the evaluating criteria. RESULTS: The significant effects of alcohol concentration, extraction time and extraction times on the extraction of the total flavonoids of Pollen typhae were discovered. CONCLUSION: The optimum extraction process was as follows: Pollen typhae was extracted with 40% alcohol for two times, each with the solvent volume 14 times of the weight of the raw materials and extraction time for 3 h.
