Relationship between invasiveness and expression of ER、PGTT、bFGF in human prolactinomas / 基础医学与临床

Objective To explore the relationship between invasive growth and expression of ER、PTTG、bFGF in human prolactinomas.Methods Fourty-six prolactinomas specimens were collected and divided into invasive group and non-invasive group.Expressions of ER、PTTG、bFGF were examined by immunocytochemical method.Total RNA was extracted from specimens and ER-mRNA and PTTG-mRNA were detected by RT-PCR.Results IA of protein expression of ER、bFGF、PTTG in invasive prolactinomas was seperately 5385.1?1348.6、9874.2?2143.7、7938.5?1436.5;The optical density ratio of ER-mRNA and PTTG-mRNA was 0.71 and 0.83,difference between invasive group and non-vasive group was significant.Conclusions ER、PTTG、bFGF in human prolactinomas closely correlated with invasiveness of prolactinomas,and may play important function in prolactinomas.

Relationships between expressions of estrogen receptor, proliferating cell nuclear antigen in human prolactinomas and tumor invasiveness / 临床神经病学杂志

Objective To investigate the relationships between the expressions of estrogen receptor (ER), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in prolactinomas and tumor invasiveness. Methods The expressions of ER and PCNA proteins were examined by immunocytochemical method, including 24 invasive prolactinomas (invasive group) and 32 non-invasive prolactinomas (non-invasive group). The expression of ER-mRNA was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain raction (RT-PCR) technique. Results There were 23 cases of positive protein expression of ER in invasive group, the integral optical density (IOD) was 4935.12?1246.56, significantly lower than non-invasive group ( P
