RESUMO

El carcinoma mucoepidermoide es el tumor maligno más frecuente de las glándulas salivales menores localizándose por lo general en el paladar. El objetivo del presente reporte de caso es evidenciar en la literatura científica la importancia del diagnóstico precoz de carcinomas orales, así como, el rol fundamental que cumple el odontólogo general para identificar, guiar y derivar al paciente a un especialista. Se presenta el caso clínico de un paciente de sexo masculino que acudió a la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional de Asunción, quien fue derivado por su odontóloga tras percibir un pequeño pero perceptible cambio en la coloración normal de la mucosa y molestias ocasionales en la zona del paladar duro. Al examen intraoral se observó en el paladar duro, a la altura de los premolares en la hemiarcada izquierda, una lesión nodular ovoidea, color violáceo, de 1cm de diámetro, depresible a la palpación. Se realizó una biopsia incisional para su estudio histopatológico, reportando un carcinoma mucoepidermoide. El diagnóstico precoz de este tipo de patologías es un desafío para el odontólogo general, quien debe orientar al paciente, ante cualquier cambio de la estructura normal de la cavidad bucal, para que acuda a un especialista.


Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most frequent malignant tumor of the minor salivary glands, usually located in the palate. The objective of this case report is to demonstrate in the Paraguayan scientific literature the importance of early diagnosis of oral carcinomas as well as the fundamental role of the general dentist in identifying, guiding and referring the patient to the corresponding specialist. The clinical case presented is about a male patient who attended the Faculty of Dentistry of the National University of Asuncion. His dentist referred him after noticing a small but perceptible change in the normal coloration of the mucosa and occasional discomfort in the area of the hard palate. In the intraoral examination, an ovoid nodular lesion, purplish in color, 1cm in diameter, depressible on palpation, observed on the hard palate at the level of the premolars in the left hemiarch. An incisional biopsy performed for histopathological study, reporting a mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Regarding the early diagnosis of this type of pathology, the challenge for the general dentist will continues to be his continuous training in order to be able to successfully guide the patient in seeking care from the right specialist in case of any change in the oral cavity.

RESUMO

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MC) is the most common malignant epithelial neoplasm in the salivary glands. This neoplasm has varying proportions of mucous, epidermoid, intermediate, columnar, and clear cells. MCs have been associated with CRTC1-MAML2 genes; however, their pathogenesis is uncertain. Recently, epigenetic changes have been considered a possible aetiologic factor. To identify the methylation state of RB, P16, MGMT, and hMLH genes in the three severity grades of MC were used five MCs and one healthy minor salivary gland as a control group (CG) obtained from the Pathology and Oral Medicine Laboratory and analyzed using MS-PCR to compare the presence or absence of methylation in promotor regions. The Kruskal- Wallis test was performed, with p≤0.05 considered significant. CG was employed as the normalizer of methylation levels. All assays were performed in triplicate. The mean age of our population was 52.6±18.6 years old; the total population was female and included 2 low grade, 2 intermediate grade, and 1 high grade levels of severity. When comparing the methylation status of the three histopathological grades of MC against the control, statistically significant differences were observed in Rb-M, MGMT-M, and hMLH-1-NM for high-grade severity, with p values of 0.03, 0.05, and 0.04, respectively. Methylation is a possible mechanism for pathogenesis processing of high-grade MC. However, a larger sample population is necessary to validate this finding.


El carcinoma mucoepidermoide (CM) es la neoplasia epitelial maligna más frecuente de glándulas salivales. Esta neoplasia tiene proporciones variables de células mucosas, epidermoides, intermedias, cilíndricas y claras. Los CM se han asociado con los genes CRTC1-MAML2; sin embargo, su patogenia es incierta. Recientemente, los cambios epigenéticos se han considerado un posible factor etiológico. Para identificar el estado de metilación de los genes RB, P16, MGMT y hMLH en los tres grados de severidad de CM se utilizaron cinco CM y una glándula salival menor sana como grupo control (GC) obtenidos del Laboratorio de Patología y Medicina Oral y analizados mediante MS-PCR para comparar la presencia o ausencia de metilación en regiones promotoras. Se realizó la prueba de Kruskal-Wallis, considerándose significativa una p≤0,05. Se empleó GC como normalizador de los niveles de metilación. Todos los ensayos se realizaron por triplicado. La edad media de nuestra población fue de 52,6 ± 18,6 años; la población total era femenina e incluía 2 niveles de severidad de grado bajo, 2 de grado intermedio y 1 de alto grado. Al comparar el estado de metilación de los tres grados histopatológicos de CM contra el GC, se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en Rb-M, MGMT-M y hMLH-1-NM para severidad de alto grado, con valores de p de 0.03, 0.05, y 0,04, respectivamente. La metilación es un posible mecanismo para el procesamiento de patogénesis de CM de alto grado. Sin embargo, se necesita una población de muestra más grande para validar este hallazgo.

RESUMO

Introduction:Salivary gland neoplasms are uncommon tumors comprising <3%–10% of all head‑and‑neck neoplasms. Recent WHO classification of salivary gland tumor added many newer entities; however, no definite risk‑stratification system is specified to predict the likelihood of malignancy for each diagnostic category. The present study is designed to evaluate the salivary gland aspirates using the Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytology for reporting correlating with histological diagnosis which will lead to determine the malignancy risk for each diagnostic category. Risk of malignancy is calculated by the ratio of cytopathology cases with a malignant histopathology to the total number of cytopathology cases with follow‑up histopathology for that particular category. MaterialsandMethods: The present study was a cross‑sectional study done prospectively over a period of 2 years, and a total of 72 participants were selected. This study characterized the cytological features of spectrum of salivary gland lesions varying from benign to malignant. The lesions were evaluated and classified cytologically according to “the Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology” for reporting salivary gland neoplasms. Histopathological correlation was done with cytological diagnosis wherever possible. Results: In our study of 72 patients with salivary gland lesions with the mean age of the patient being 50.6 years and maximum number of lesions involved the parotid gland followed by the submandibular gland and sublingual gland. Majority of the lesions in the present study were nonneoplastic in nature followed by lesions benign in nature. Malignant lesions were least common in occurrence. Among 72 cases, majority of the cases were seen in Milan category II (nonneoplastic) consisting of 34 cases (47.2%), followed by 31 cases (43.1%) in Milan category IV (benign). Final diagnostic categorization of 72 cases of salivary gland lesions was done according to the Milan system and the histopathological correlation was available in 23 of these cases. Out of the 34 cases in Milan system category II (nonneoplastic), histopathological evaluation was done in 2 cases. Both the cases were benign in nature, 31 cases in Milan system category IV (benign) histopathological evaluation was done in 16 cases where 15 cases were benign in nature and 1 lesion was malignant. Four cases were put in category VI of the Milan system, histopathological evaluation was done in all the 4 cases which were all malignant in nature. Conclusion: The current study validates fine‑needle aspiration cytology as a cost‑effective and noninvasive procedure for differentiating between benign and malignant lesions of the salivary gland, information of critical importance when determining the patient’s next course of treatment.

RESUMO

Mixed neuroendocrine non-neuroendocrine neoplasm (MiNeN) is a recently described entity of the esophagus in the latest (fifth) edition of WHO Classification of Digestive System Tumors. It is often a difficult pathological diagnosis, especially in small preoperative biopsies. We herein report a case of high-grade MiNeN of gastroesophageal junction diagnosed as a squamous cell carcinoma in preoperative biopsy and subsequently as a high-grade MiNeN in esophagogastrectomy specimen comprising areas of mucoepidermoid carcinoma and large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). This report accentuates the importance of deeper multisite preoperative biopsies as the management is completely different in a MiNeN from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

RESUMO

Introduction: Salivary gland tumors (SGTs) are relatively uncommon and show a wide variety of morphological heterogeneities. The incidence of SGTs is said to be affected by geographical and racial factors. Histopathological diagnosis plays a major role in the diagnosis of these neoplasms. Objectives: This study investigated the incidence of SGTs and histopathological features of various SGTs, aimed at knowing the epidemiological pattern of these tumors and comparing the results of our study with other studies of SGTs in the literature. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on SGTs at the Pathology Department of the Government Medical College and Hospital for a period of 5 years. Clinical and demographic data were documented and analyzed concerning histopathologic type. Results: A total of 86 SGTs were identified, 65.12% of which were classified as benign and 34.88% as malignant. Most tumors occurred in the parotid gland (59.14%). Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) was the most common tumor (56.98%), followed by mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) (17.44%). The tumors occurred more often in men (51.16%) than in women (48.84%). Conclusion: SGTs exhibit broad morphological heterogeneity and these tumors are rare. The parotid gland is the most common location, and PA is the most frequent benign tumor. MEC followed by adenoid cystic carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the salivary gland.

RESUMO

Introduction Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is a tumor originated from the epitheliumof the glandular excretory ducts and has highly variable biological potential. It is the most prevalent cancer of the salivary glands. The present report aims to describe a case of nasal mucoepidermoid carcinoma that developed after adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) treatment of a recurrent pituitary macroadenoma. Case Report Male patient, 62 years old, presented with recurrent nasal epistaxis on the right, associated with intense pulsatile headache, visual analogical scale (VAS) 10/10, with improvement only with the use of opioids andmorphine. After undergoing oncological screening and study by imaging exams, the presence of an expansive seal lesion with suprasellar extension was seen, involving the medial wall of the cavernous segment of the right carotid artery and the anterior cerebral artery, as well as the presence of a new expansive lesion in the right nasal cavity, with ethmoid bone invasion superiorly and medial orbit wall invasion laterally, compressing the ipsilateral optic nerve canal. Discussion Sinonasal neoplasms represent a small portion of all malignancies of the upper aerodigestive tract, accounting for<5% of these neoplasms. The development of MEC involves risk factors such as occupational issues, history of trauma and surgery involving the nasal area, and radiation exposure, as in previous RT. Conclusion Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is an uncommon neoplasia and can be associated with RT treatment, as used in cases of recurrent pituitary macroadenoma. In general, surgical resection to obtain free margins of neoplastic tissue is the aimed treatment, seeking better prognosis.

RESUMO

Los tumores traqueo bronquiales son extremadamente infrecuentes en la edad pediátrica e incluyen lesiones benignas y malignas. Por la baja frecuencia en niños y sintomatología respiratoria inespecífica, la sospecha diagnostica es habitualmente tardía. El tratamiento de elección en la mayoría de ellos es la resección quirúrgica abierta, sin embargo, la remoción endoscopia podría estar indicada es casos muy seleccionados con histología benigna y de localización accesible.


Tracheobronchial tumors are extremely rare in children and include benign and malignant lesions. Due to the low frequency in children and nonspecific respiratory symptoms, diagnostic suspicion is usually late. The treatment of choice in most of them is open surgical resection, however, endoscopy removal could be indicated in highly selected cases with benign histology and accessible location.

RESUMO

Objective@# To investigate the clinical effect of buccal fat pad flaps on the restoration of maxillary defects.@*Methods@# Nineteen cases with oral-nasal communications and maxillary soft and hard tissue defects ranging from 3.0 cm×2.0 cm-5.0 cm×4.0 cm after resection of the primary tumor foci were repaired with a pedicled buccal fat pad flap, and the maxillary sinus cavity and oral-nasal communication were closed. The survival, healing and complications of the flap were observed during the 3-month follow-up. @*Results @#The buccal fat pad flaps of 19 patients all survived. Five days after the operation, the buccal fat pad flap was dark red with slight edema, and the maxillary defect area collapsed. Ten days after the operation, most of the buccal fat pad flap turned pink, and the collapse was alleviated. One month after the operation, the buccal fat pad flap had no obvious collapse, and its surface was epithelialized, with a shape and color close to those of the normal mucosa. The opening was slightly limited. Three months after the operation, the buccal fat pad flap was completely epithelialized, with no difference from the surrounding tissue, and the opening was approximately 3 transverse fingers. No complications, such as swelling and necrosis of the buccal fat pad flap, limitation of mouth opening, maxillary sinus fistulas, oral-nasal communications and facial changes occurred in 19 patients within 3 months after the operation.@*Conclusion @#The application of a buccal fat pad flap has a good effect to repair maxillary tissue defects and close oral maxillary sinus communication with diameters less than 5 cm, so it can be widely used in the clinic.

RESUMO

Objective:To investigate clinical and histopathological features and differential diagnostic considerations of mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) .Methods:A retrospective study was carried out on clinical manifestations, histopathological and immunohistochemical features, treatment and prognosis of 8 patients with MEC, who were collected from Department of Pathology, Hospital of Dermatology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College during 2018 - 2021.Results:Among the 8 patients, 5 were males and 3 were females, and their age at onset ranged from 19 to 67 years. Skin lesions were located on the lip mucosa in 5 cases, on the cheek in 2 cases, and on the nose in 1 case. Tumors were all located in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, parts of which were connected to the epidermis; different proportions of mucous cells, epidermoid cells and intermediate cells were arranged in nests or clumps, and formed solid or cystic structures accompanied by varying degrees of formation of ducts and mucus lakes; all epidermoid cells and intermediate cells expressed cytokeratins AE1/AE3, CK5/6, P63, carcinoembryonic antigen and epithelial membrane antigen. According to the current Chinese grading system, 1 of the 8 patients was diagnosed with intermediate-grade MEC, and others were diagnosed with low-grade MEC. No abnormalities were found by systemic examination. All patients received surgical resections. After the follow-up of 12 - 36 months, no recurrence or distant metastasis was observed.Conclusion:MEC presents no characteristic clinical manifestations, its diagnosis mainly depends on histopathological features, and mucus in the cytoplasm of mucous cells as shown by alcian blue staining is specific for MEC.

RESUMO

Resumen Las neoplasias en glándulas salivales son infrecuentes, representando menos del 3% de los tumores de cabeza y cuello. El carcinoma mucoepidermoide es el tumor maligno más común en glándulas salivales, siendo su principal ubicación la parótida. Clínicamente se asemeja a otras lesiones de mucosa oral, por lo cual, es importante realizar un correcto diagnóstico diferencial. Su comportamiento biológico se relaciona con el grado histológico tumoral, factor relevante en el pronóstico y tratamiento de esta neoplasia. Presentamos el caso de un paciente hombre de 75 años afectado con un tumor en paladar con diagnóstico de carcinoma mucoepidermoide de bajo grado. Como tratamiento se realizó una maxilectomía parcial y una placa obturadora en base a una prótesis removible y posterior reconstrucción con un colgajo libre microvascularizado. Actualmente el paciente se encuentra en controles periódicos, libre de enfermedad. Los tumores de glándulas salivales son un desafío diagnóstico, requieren de exámenes imagenológicos y del estudio histopatológico. Cuando existen dudas en el diagnóstico, se debe considerar repetir la toma de la muestra o la obtención de biopsias de más de una zona representativa que permita el diagnóstico de la lesión.


Abstract Salivary gland neoplasms are infrequent lesions representing less than 3% of head and neck tumors. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor in salivary glands, being the parotid the most usual location. Clinically, it resembles other oral mucosa lesions, therefore, it is important to make a correct differential diagnosis. Its biological behavior is related to the tumor histological grade, a relevant factor in the prognosis and treatment of this neoplasm. We reported a case of a 75-year-old-man, with a tumor in the palate, diagnosed as low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma. A partial maxillectomy and an obturator plate were performed based on a removable prosthesis and subsequent reconstruction with a microvascularized free flap. The patient is currently undergoing regular checkups, maintaining disease free. Salivary gland tumors are a diagnostic challenge, requiring imaging tests and histopathological study. In case of doubts with the diagnosis, it should be considered to biopsy more than area or to repeat the biopsy in order to obtain a representative sample that allows the diagnosis of the lesion.

RESUMO

@#This patient was a 47-year female who underwent carinal resection and reconstruction because of left main bronchial mucoepidermoid carcinoma. She underwent four cycles chemotherapy when recovering from surgery because of subcarinal lymph node metastasis. However, the patient suffered from recurred productive cough and dyspnea during chemotherapy. Bronchoscopic assessment revealed stenosis at the reconstructed carina and left main bronchus five months after surgery. The granulation tissues of the left main bronchus showed no evidence of cancer recurrence. After repeated bronchoscopic resection of granulation tissue combined with bronchial stent placement, the left main bronchial stenosis gradually worsened with granulation tissue growth. Three acid-fast bacilli were found in the granulation tissue harvested ten months after surgery. The reason of postoperative bronchostenosis was confirmed as endobronchial tuberculosis, and antitubercular agents were added. Unfortunately, she had persistent left main bronchostenosis due to irreversible destruction and left pulmonary atelectasis thereafter. Therefore, for the recurring anastomotic granulomas after tracheobronchial reconstruction, the possibility of tuberculosis infection should be considered.

RESUMO

Objetivo: Describir la técnica de reconstrucción oral con colgajo de músculo temporal por resección de lesión oncológica. Caso clínico: Un paciente de sexo masculino, de 70 años de edad, fue derivado al Hospital Sirio Libanés desde la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad de Buenos Aires con diagnóstico de carcinoma mucoepidermoide de siete meses de evolución, ubicado en el reborde alveolar del maxilar superior izquierdo, a nivel de las piezas dentarias 25 a 28. Se realizó la resección del tumor bajo anestesia general y la consiguiente reconstrucción del lecho mediante la técnica de reconstrucción oral con colgajo de músculo temporal. Conclusión: El colgajo temporomiofascial resultó ser versátil para la reconstrucción maxilofacial en lo que respecta a la proximidad, el tamaño, la fiabilidad de la vascularización y la facilidad de la técnica (AU)


Aim: To describe the temporalis myofacial flap technique for reconstruction in the maxillofacial region following oral cancer resection. Clinical case: A 70-year-old male patient was referred to the Sirio Libanés Hospital from the Dental School, University of Buenos Aires with a diagnosis of mucoepidermoid carcinoma with 7 months of evolution located in the alveolar ridge of the left upper jaw, at the level of teeth 25 to 28. The tumor was resected under general anesthesia and a rotational flap of the temporalis muscle was used for the reconstruction of the area. Conclusion: The temporalis flap was a versatile option for the reconstruction of maxillofacial defects due to its proximity to the oral cavity, the reliable vascularity and minor donor site morbidity (AU)

RESUMO

Background: The neoplasms of salivary glands are relatively uncommon and represent less than 2% of all human tumors. They are morphologically diverse, with marked heterogeneity among the different subtypes and even within the same tumor. The unpredictability in the long term outcome imposes a significant challenge in the clinical management.Methods: This is a descriptive study done in a tertiary care teaching hospital over a period of 15 years. Patient details were collected from medical case records. All specimens were evaluated for site, laterality, size, nature of the cut surface and intactness of the capsule. Two to 5 representative bits were taken from each specimen and subjected to routine fixation, processing and section cutting followed by Haematoxylin and Eosin staining.Results: A total of 138 salivary gland tumors were diagnosed from patients in the age group of 13 to 90 years with a mean age of 41.8 years. There were 53 (38.4%) males and 85 (61.6%) females with male to female ratio of 1:1.42. There were 115 (83.3%) benign tumors and 23 (16.7%) malignant tumors. Pleomorphic adenoma accounted for 70.3% of all salivary gland tumors followed by mucoepidermoid carcinoma (10.9%), Warthin tumor (8%), basal cell adenoma (2.9%), adenoid cystic carcinoma (2.2%), squamous cell carcinoma (2.2%), myoepithelioma (1.4%), oxyphillic adenoma (0.7%), acinic cell carcinoma (0.7%) and salivary duct carcinoma (0.7%).Conclusions: The salivary gland neoplasms are relatively uncommon head and neck tumors. Parotid gland is the commonest site of occurrence. Pleomorphic adenoma is the commonest benign and mucoepidermoid carcinoma the commonest malignant salivary gland tumor.

RESUMO

Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma (HCCC), also known as clear cell carcinoma, not otherwise specified [CCC, (NOS)], is a rare minor salivary gland tumor characterized by proliferation of clear cells, organized in trabecular cords, or solid nests within loose to densely hyalinized stroma. It is considered a diagnosis of exclusion by the World Health Organization (WHO) because other salivary tumors may also have a clear cell component. Hence, there is a wide differential diagnosis. EWSR1-ATF1 gene rearrangements are fairly specific for this tumor, however, one of the recent studies have described its presence in clear cell odontogenic carcinoma (CCOC) one of its histologic mimickers. EWSR1 and CREM fusions have recently been described in these tumors but its importance is still not well described. Here we present a case of a 33-year-old woman who presented with a recurrent lesion of the soft palate. Her initial lesion was resected and diagnosed as low-grade myoepithelial tumor. Surgical margins at the time of initial resection were positive and the re-excision was recommended but the patient did not undergo surgery. Two years later, local recurrence at the same site was found and an excision was performed yielding negative margins. Histopathologic examination revealed features consistent with hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma. The patient remains disease free 1 year after the re-excision. The pathology, clinical characteristics, differential diagnosis and treatment of hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma are reviewed.

RESUMO

Background: Salivary gland tumors (SGT) are uncommon tumors of diverse histopathology accounting for <2% of all neoplasms. Early diagnosis differentiates between benign and malignant SGT and less extensive surgical procedure can be performed. The objective is to study the spectrum of primary SGT with special emphasis on their distribution, treatment and outcome at a rural tertiary care centre.Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted on 30 consecutive primary SGT patients attending the Departments of Surgery and Otorhinolaryngology of North Bengal Medical College and Hospital over a period of one and half years. All patients were clinically evaluated, investigated, treated accordingly and followed up during the period of study. Data was collected and compiled in Excel sheet and analysed using GraphPad Software and GraphPad QuickCalcs 2018 (San Diego, CA). A p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: Maximum patients (83.3%) were in the age range of 31-60 years. The male to female ratio was 1:4 for benign tumours and 1:1 for malignant tumours. Malignant cases were 66.67%. Involvement of parotid gland was the commonest (43.3%) and mostly presented with swelling (73.3%). Pleomorphic salivary adenoma was the commonest benign tumor (33.3%) and mucoepidermoid carcinoma was the commonest malignant tumor (16.7%). Permanent facial palsy was observed in 2 (9.5%) and recurrence in 4 patients (19%).Conclusions: SGT are rare and present in various modes. Malignant cases were singularly more in this study.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT The present study aimed to report a case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC), focusing on its clinical-pathological characteristics. At intraoral clinical examination, a nodular lesion was observed in the right pterygomandibular raphe region, with three years of evolution. An incisional biopsy was performed, and the diagnostic hypotheses of salivary gland injury and sialadenitis were considered. Histopathologically, a malignant neoplastic process characterized by the proliferation of epidermoid, intermediate and mucosal cells was observed. The histopathological diagnosis of MEC was emitted. The present case praises the importance of early diagnosis and correct management of this disease, providing a better prognosis for these patients.


RESUMEN Reportamos un caso de carcinoma mucoepidermoide (CME) con enfoque en sus rasgos clinicopatológicos. En la exploración clínica intraoral, se observó una lesión de aspecto nodular en región del rafe pterigomandibular derecho, con tiempo de evolución de tres años. Se realizó una biopsia por incisión, considerándose las hipótesis diagnósticas de lesión de glándula salival y sialadenitis. Histopatológicamente, se observó un proceso neoplásico maligno caracterizado por la proliferación de células epidermoides, intermedias y mucosas. El diagnóstico histopatológico fue de CME. El presente caso destaca la importancia del diagnóstico temprano y del manejo correcto de esa enfermedad, ofreciendo un mejor pronóstico para los pacientes portadores de CME.

RESUMO

Objective @#To investigate the effect and mechanism of allicin combined with 5-FU on proliferation inhibition and apoptosis of the mucoepidermoid carcinoma MEC-1 cell line in mucoepidermoid carcinoma in order to provide the corresponding basis for subsequent clinical drug application.@*Methods @# MEC-1 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were randomly divided into control groups and experimental groups. The control groups were PBS groups containing 0.1% DMSO, while the experimental groups were the allicin group, 5-FU group and combined drug group (the allicin combined with the 5-FU group). The proliferation inhibition rates of allicin, 5-FU and allicin combined with 5-FU in MEC-1 cells were detected by the CCK8 method at different concentrations (0, 25, 50, and 75 mg/L) for 24 h, and the IC50 value of allicin and 5-FU after 24 hours was calculated. The apoptotic rate of MEC-1 cells treated with allicin, 5-FU and allicin combined with 5-FU at different concentrations (0, 25, 50, and 75 mg/L) for 24 hours was measured by flow cytometry. The expression of Bax and Bcl-2 protein was determined by Western blot analysis of the IC50 concentration of allicin and 5-FU alone and in combination with MEC-1 cells for 24 hours. @*Results@#The growth inhibition rate and apoptosis rate of MEC-1 cells in the combined drug group were higher than those in the allicin group and the 5-FU alone group (P < 0.01). Allicin and 5-FU alone and in combination downregulated Bcl-2 protein and upregulated Bax protein expression, and the combined drug group had the largest ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 (P < 0.05). @*Conclusion @#Allicin and 5-FU both alone and in combination can inhibit the proliferation of and induce apoptosis in MEC-1 cells, and allicin can enhance the apoptosis of 5-FU in MEC-1 cells, which may be related to the apoptosis of the mitochondrial pathway.
