ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the expression and differential diagnostic significance of CyclinD1 and D2-40 in follicular neoplasm (FN) and other thyroid adenomatoid lesions. METHODS: A total of 144 cases of thyroid adenomatoid lesions were enrolled. Immunohistochemistry for CyclinD1 and D2-40 was performed. RESULTS: We found two patterns of CyclinD1 expression: nuclear (N) and cytoplasmic (C). The expression of N-CyclinD1 / C-CyclinD1 in FN (77.4%, 48/62; 50.0%, 31/62) was much higher than that in multinodular goiters with dominant nodules (MNG-DN) (16.4%, 10/61; 4.9%, 3/61) (p < 0.05). In contrast, the expression of D2-40 in MNG-DN (82.0%,50/61) was much higher than that in FN (4.8%, 3/62) (p < 0.05). In addition, unique staining patterns were observed: CyclinD1 showed no immunostaining only in all 8 cases of oncocytic cell tumors (OCT); D2-40 staining showed the characteristic wide distribution of lymphatic vessels in all 8 cases of poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (PDTC). Finally, the expression of CyclinD1 and D2-40 did not differ among follicular thyroid adenoma and follicular thyroid carcinoma / noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: CyclinD1 and D2-40 are helpful diagnostic markers of FN, which can assist to discern FN from MNG-DN / OCT / PDTC.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To study the clinicopathologic features of various types of mature T-cell and natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma in Guangdong, China, with respect to the 2008 WHO classification of lymphoid neoplasms. METHODS: Eleven hundred and thirty-seven (1137) cases of mature T-cell or NK/T-cell lymphoma diagnosed during the period from 2002 to 2006 in Guangzhou area were retrieved. The clinical data, histologic features and immunohistochemical findings were reviewed by a panel of experienced hematopathologists. Additional immunostaining was performed if indicated. The cases were re-classified according to the 2008 WHO classification of lymphoid neoplasms. RESULTS: Nine hundred and sixty-three (963) cases fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of mature T-cell or NK/T-cell lymphoma and accounted for 20.1% of all cases of lymphoma encountered during the same period (963/4801). A predominance of extranodal involvement was noted in 644 cases (66.9%), while 319 cases (33.1%) showed mainly nodal disease. The prevalence of various lymphoma subtypes was as follows: peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified (PTCL, NOS) 293 cases (30.4%), extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type 281 cases (29.2%), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) 198 cases (20.6%), and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AILT) 46 cases (4.8%). The male-to-female ratio was 1.99. The median age of the patients was 44 years, with the peak age of PTCL, NOS, extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type and AILT being 55 to 64 years, 25 to 54 years and 65 to 74 years, respectively. ALK-positive ALCL occurred more frequently in young age, while the ALK-negative ALCL cases occurred mainly in the elderly. CONCLUSIONS: Extranodal lesions predominate in mature T-cell and NK/T-cell lymphomas occurring in Guangzhou area. There is a male predominance and the overall incidence shows no increasing trend with age of the patient. The peak age of various subtypes however varies. The most common subtype was PTCL, NOS, followed by extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, ALCL and AILT. The relatively frequent occurrence of extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type in Guangdong area is likely associated with the high incidence of Epstein-Barr virus infection there.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinicopathologic features of the patients with node-negative metastasis (pN0) gastric carcinoma confirmed by routine pathologic examination (Ha&E staining),and their relationship with survival. METHODS: The clinico-pathologic data of 87 pN0 gastric carcinoma patients were analyzed retrospectively. Kaplan-Meier (Log-rank) method was used to compare the survival rate,and Cox regression method was used to screen the independent prognosis factors for pN0 gastric cancer. RESULTS: There were 69 males and 18 females. D(2) lymphadenectomy was performed in 75 (86.2%), and D(3) in 13 cases (13.8%). Distal gastrectomy was performed in 59 (67.8%), total gastrectomy in 24 (27.6%) and proximal gastrectomy in l4 cases (4.6%). Twenty-three (26.4%) cases received postoperative chemotherapy and 64 (73.6% ) did not. The 5-year survival rate of the 87 pN0 gastric carcinoma patients was 56.5%. There were no differences in survival rate considering age, tumor location, gastrectomy, lymph nodes dissection, differentiation grade, and tumor-stroma relationship (P > 0.05), while the differences were significant in survival rate between the patients with postoperative chemotherapy,lymphatic invasion,venous invasion or not,and different pT staging (all Pa< 0.05). The Cox regression analysis revealed that pT staging and postoperative chemotherapy were independent prognostic factors. CONCLUSION: pT staging and postoperative chemotherapy are independent prognostic factors. It is necessary to develop a precise staging technique to select a suitable surgical therapy or confirm which patients should accept postoperative chemotherapy in pN0 gastric carcinoma patients.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of early nutritional intervention on the serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF1), insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3), intestinal development, and catch-up growth of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) rats by giving the IUGR new born rats different protein level diet. METHODS: IUGR rat model was built by starvation of pregnant female rats. Twenty-four IUGR pups and 8 normal pups were divided randomly into 4 groups: normal control group (C group); IUGR control group (S group), IUGR low-protein diet group (SL group), and IUGR high-protein diet group (SH group). Detected the serum IGF1, IGFBP3, body weight, body length, intestinal weight length, intestinal villi height (VH), crypt depth (CD), villi absorbing area (VSA), mucous thickness (MT), and disaccharidase at the 4th week. RESULTS: (1) The SH group showed the fastest catch-up growth, serum IGF1, IGFBP3, VH, and VSA were significantly higher than those of normal control group and IUGR control group. The intestinal weight and length, and the activities of lactase and saccharase of the SH group also reached the normal control group level. (2) The SL group kept on small size, the serum IGF1, IGFBP3, and most of intestinal histological indexes were all significantly lower than other groups. (3) IGF1, IGFBP3 were positively correlated to intestinal VH, VSA, saccharase, body weight and length. CONCLUSIONS: The serum IGF1 was a sensitive index to the catch-up growth. The early nutritional intervention of high-protein diet after birth is helpful for the catch-up growth of IUGR through promoting the intestinal development and the absorption of nutrition.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: About 20 - 50% individuals with intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) could not achieve catch-up growth and remain small in size till adulthood. There are few reports on the relation between intestinal development and body catch-up growth of IUGR. Studies showed that early "nutritional programming" would results in long-term effects on the body growth and organic function, and gastrointestinal development is closely related to the body development as well. The authors aimed to study the effect of early nutritional interventions on serum IGF1, IGFBP3, intestinal development and catch-up growth of pups with IUGR by using diets with different protein and caloric levels during the first four weeks of life. METHODS: An IUGR rat model was established by maternal nutrition restriction during pregnancy. Thirty-two IUGR female pups were divided randomly into 4 groups (8 pups in each group) and eight normal female pups as control. The groups and interventions were (1) Normal control group (C group); (2) IUGR control group (S group), (3) IUGR low-protein diet group (SL group); (4) IUGR high-protein diet group (SH group); (5) IUGR high-caloric group (SA group). The serum IGF1, IGFBP3, body weight, body length, and intestinal weight, length, intestinal villi height (VH), crypt depth (CD), villi absorbing area (VSA), mucous thickness (MT) were measured at the 4(th) week of life. RESULTS: (1) At the 4(th) week, the serum IGF1 (724.0 +/- 153.5 ng/ml), IGFBP3 (9.69 +/- 3.13 ng/ml), and VH (416.9 +/- 46.3 microm), VSA (115.9 +/- 24.0 x 10(3) microm(2)), MT (583.9 +/- 68.5 microm) in the SH group were significantly higher than those of normal control group (539.4 +/- 198.4 ng/ml, 4.77 +/- 2.98 ng/ml and 322.1 +/- 25.8 microm, 85.8 +/- 17.8 x 10(3) microm(2), 480.0 +/- 61.5 microm) and IUGR control group (P < 0.05). The intestinal weight (1.91 +/- 0.16 g) and length (80.67 +/- 9.47 cm) in the SH group was not significantly different from the normal control group (2.24 +/- 0.22 g and 74.77 +/- 9.06 cm, P > 0.05). The SH group showed the fastest catch-up growth. Their body weights (40.14 +/- 11.03 g) at the 3(rd) week and body lengths (23.61 +/- 0.49 cm) at the 4(th) week of life reached the normal ranges of the control group (44.65 +/- 5.36 g and 23.10 +/- 1.42 cm, P > 0.05). (2) The serum IGF1 (346.7 +/- 85.3 ng/ml), IGFBP3 (1.4 +/- 0.21 ng/ml), body weight (21.41 +/- 3.54 g) and body length (15.96 +/- 1.29 cm) and the most of intestinal indexes in the SL group were markedly lower than other groups at the 4(th) week of life (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The serum IGF1 was a sensitive marker to reflect the catch-up growth and nutritional status, and IGF1 was positively correlated with the intestinal development and body growth. When given different nutritional interventions during the first four weeks of life, high protein diet is more helpful for the IUGR catch-up growth by promoting the intestinal development and the absorption of nutrition.
