Abstract
BACKGROUND Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a common type of tumor that can metastasize to any organs and sites. However, it is extremely rare for ccRCC to metastasize to the iris. Here, we describe a rare case of iris metastasis from ccRCC with a history of left nephrectomy in 2010. CASE SUMMARY A 62-year-old male was admitted to the hospital due to blurred vision and red eyes, and a mass was found on the iris in the right eye. B-scan ultrasonography revealed a well-bounded high-density lesion at the corner of the anterior chamber at the 3-4 o'clock position. Phacoemulsification with simultaneous intraocular lens implantation and iridocyclectomy was performed in the right eye. The lesion was confirmed to be metastatic ccRCC by histological and immunohistochemical analyses. The patient was still alive at 9 mo after surgical treatment. Ocular metastasis can be an initial sign with a poor prognosis. Timely detection and treatment may improve survival. Clinicians should pay attention to similar metastatic diseases to prevent misdiagnosis leading to missed treatment opportunities. CONCLUSION This report of the characteristics and successful management of a rare case of iris metastasis from ccRCC highlights the importance of a comprehensive medical history, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and clinical manifestation for successful disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of methylene blue tracing on the effect of surgical resection and the prognosis of gastric cancer patients in D2 radical surgery under laparoscope. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 160 patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent surgical treatment in Xinxiang Central Hospital, the 4th Clinical College of Xinxiang Medical College from January 2016 to January 2019 were selected for retrospective analysis. Among them, 84 patients underwent laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer combined with methylene blue labeling operation (labeling group), and the other 76 patients underwent only laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer (control group). The difference of intraoperative and postoperative recovery, lymph node dissection, and postoperative 3-year cumulative survival rate between the two groups were analyzed. Results: The age of patients in the labeled group and the control group were (64.9±7.8) and (66.0±8.3) years old, respectively (P=0.389); And the male patients accounted for 61.9% (52 cases) and 55.3% (42 cases), respectively (P=0.394); The operation time in the labeled group was (218.5±19.6) min, which was shorter than that in the control group (230.1±17.4) min (P<0.001). There was no significant difference between the labeled group and the control group in the amount of bleeding during operation, the time of anal exhaust after operation, the time of eating after operation, the time of hospitalization after operation, and the average diameter of lymph nodes (P>0.05). The total number of dissected lymph nodes, D1 lymph nodes and D2 lymph nodes in the labeled group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P values<0.05). The operative complication rate in the labeled group was 11.9% (10 cases), which was lower than that in the control group (25.0%, 19 cases) (P=0.032); There was no statistical significance in 3-year cumulative survival rates of patients between the labeled group (61.9%) and the control group (52.6%) (χ2=3.46,P=0.065). Conclusion: The use of methylene blue tracing in laparoscopic D2 radical surgery for gastric cancer is beneficial to reduce the operation time, improve the lymph node clearance rate, and reduce surgical complications.

Abstract
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), one of the main histopathological subtypes of esophageal cancer (EC), is characterized by high morbidity and mortality. Clinical treatment for ESCC lacks specific molecular targets and effective therapeutic drugs. Skimmianine (SK), one of the natural fluroquinolone alkaloids, is widely present in Rutaceae family plants. Here, we mainly used CCK-8 assay, clone formation, flow cytometry analysis, wound-healing assay, Transwell assay, western blot, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), molecular docking analysis, tumor xenograft assay, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining to investigate the potential anti-tumor effect of SK on ESCC. We demonstrated that SK inhibited the proliferation of TE-1 and Eca109 cells via inducing the G0/G1 phase cell cycle arrest, prevented the migration and invasion of tumor cells via regulating epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro. In addition, SK obviously suppressed the growth of xenografted Eca109 tumors in nude mice. The anti-tumor mechanism of SK could be blocking the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/ERK signaling pathway. Our basic research suggests that SK can be a potential therapeutic agent for ESCC.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of miR-369-3p targeting ACTN4 expression on proliferation and apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Methods: Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blot were used to detect the expression levels of miR-369-3p and ACTN4 in hepatocarcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues. MiR-369-3p mimics, miR-negative control (NC), si-ACTN4, and si-NC were transfected into hepatocellular carcinoma MHCC97H cells by liposome method. Cell proliferation was detected by 3-(4, 5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-dipheny-ltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell cycle and apoptotic rates. The dual luciferase reporter assay was used to verify the targeted regulation of ACTN4 by miR-369-3p. Western blot was used to detect the expressions of cyclin D1, p21, Bcl-2 and Bax. Results: The expression level of miR-369-3p in liver cancer tissue was lower than that in adjacent tissues [(0.46±0.04) vs (1.00±0.08), P<0.001)], while the expression level of ACTN4 was higher than that in adjacent tissues [mRNA (3.12±0.29) vs (1.01±0.09); protein (0.61±0.06) vs (0.25±0.03), P<0.001]. Overexpression of miR-369-3p significantly decreased the cell viability[(0.71±0.06) vs (1.26±0.11), P<0.001)], increased cell apoptosis rate [(20.16±2.11)% vs (6.25±0.64)%, P<0.001], increased the proportion of cells in G(1) phase [(31.14±3.36)% vs (51.56±5.23)%, P<0.001], decreased the proportion of cells in S phase [(32.44±3.56)% vs (14.33) ±1.45)%, P<0.001], increased the levels of p21 and Bax protein (P<0.001), and decreased the levels of cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 protein (P<0.001). Inhibition of the expression of ACTN4 significantly reduced the cell viability [(0.78±0.07) vs (1.24±0.12), P<0.001], increased the apoptosis rate [(6.58±0.66)% vs (18.32±1.82)%, P<0.001], increased the proportion of cells in G(1) phase [(48.69±4.21)% vs (30.33±3.01)%, P<0.001], decreased the proportion of cells in S phase [(36.21±3.42)% vs (18.54±1.61)%, P<0.001], increased the protein levels of p21 and Bax (P<0.001), and decreased the levels of cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 protein (P<0.001). Compared with the miR-369-3p+ pcDNA group, overexpression of ACTN4 increased the proliferation ability of hepatocellular carcinoma MHCC97H cells at 72 hours of culture[(1.12±0.11) vs (0.68±0.06), P<0.001], significantly reduced the proportion of cells in G(1) stage [(38.81±3.24)% vs (51.80±4.57)%, P<0.001], significantly increased the proportion of S-phase cells [(31.65±3.11)% vs (15.69±1.44)%, P<0.001], decreased cell apoptosis rate [(13.86±1.37)% vs (22.69±2.24)%, P<0.001], increased protein expressions of cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 (P<0.001), decreased the protein expressions of p21 and Bax (P<0.001). Conclusion: MiR-369-3p can induce cell cycle arrest in G(1) phase, inhibit the proliferation and promote apoptosis of liver cancer cells by regulating the expression of ACTN4.

Abstract
Histiocytoid breast carcinoma (HBC) is a rare type of breast cancer with controversial histogenesis, which is characterized by abundant foamy cytoplasm, fuzzy cell boundary, linear or annular infiltration, eccentric large irregular nuclei or prominent nucleoli and low mitotic activity. HBC has been considered to be a variant of lobular carcinoma, a variant of apocrine ductal carcinoma, and an apocrine variant of lobular carcinoma and to resemble lipid-rich carcinoma. We presented a case of 75-year-old woman with a 5-cm mass in the left breast. The mass was yellow-beige on cut section. HBC was diagnosed including invasive carcinoma (IC) of apocrine differentiation (diameter about 5 mm) which was surrounded by extensive carcinoma in situ (CIS, diameter about 25 mm) of apocrine type, and a 4-mm invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) in grade II. The distance between HBC and IDC was 4 mm. There was extensive (42 of 43 lymph nodes) metastasis and intravascular tumor emboli. The tumor extended into peripheral nerve. The pathology showed histiocytoid breast carcinoma with a smaller conventional invasive ductal carcinoma in adjacent area. She received a left modified radical mastectomy. However, on the follow-up imaging techniques, the mass showed no response. We discussed the pathology and immunohistochemical finding, and reviewed the literatures. We found that this case was a unique type of HBC.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that the abnormal expression of microRNA (miRNA/miR) serves a crucial role in the development of numerous types of human cancer, including neuroblastoma (NB). The present study aimed to investigate the expression levels and biological roles of miR-146b in NB. miR-146b expression levels in NB cell lines and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR, and the regulatory effects of miR-146b on NB cell proliferation, invasion and apoptosis in vitro were investigated using CCK-8 assay, transwell invasion assay and flow cytometry. In addition, bioinformatics analysis, western blotting and dual-luciferase reporter assays were used to determine whether NUMB was a target gene of miR-146b. miR-146b expression levels were increased in NB cell lines compared with HUVECs. The knockdown of miR-146b using a miR-146b inhibitor significantly inhibited NB cell proliferation and invasion, but promoted cell apoptosis in vitro. Furthermore, it was revealed that miR-146b promoted NB cell proliferation through targeting NUMB. In conclusion, miR-146b was suggested to serve as an oncogene, at least in part, through directly targeting NUMB, which indicated that miR-146b may be a potential therapeutic target for NB treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the influence of additional clonal chromosome abnormalities in Ph negative cells (CCA/Ph(-)) on the efficacy of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) after tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) treatment. Methods: The clinical data of 28 CML patients with CCA/Ph(-) treated in Henan Cancer Hospital from July 2014 to December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. The univariate analysis was carried out by Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariate analysis was done by Cox proportional risk model. Results: A total of 28 CCA/Ph(-)patients were recruited including 17 males and 11 females with median age of 42.5 years old. The most common CCA/Ph(-)were trisomy 8 (60.7%), monosomy 7 (14.3%). 64.3% CCA/Ph(-)were transient and 35.7% recurrent (more than 2 times). Cytopenia in two or three lineages of peripheral blood was seen in 42.9% patients. As to the efficacy, 89.3% patients achieved major cytogenetic response (MCyR), 25% with major molecular response (MMR). The median follow-up time was 26.5 months. Treatment failure (TF) of TKI occurred in 32.1% patients with median duration of response 8 (1-41) months. Univariate analysis showed that TF rate was significantly correlated with the frequency of CCA/Ph(-)and cytopenia (all P<0.05). The MMR rate was also significantly correlated with cytopenia (P<0.05). Cytopenia of two lineages or pancytopenia was an independent risk factor related to MMR rate (RR=3.868, 95%CI 1.216-12.298, P=0.022) . Conclusions: Cytopenia in CCA/Ph(-)appears to be an independent risk factor of MMR in CML patients with TKI treatment. The recurrent CCA/Ph(-)may link to higher treatment failure rate. Drug withdrawal or alternative strategy should be considered according to response and the ABL kinase mutations.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the efficacy of induction chemotherapy with or without autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) for newly diagnosed young diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. Methods: The retrospective study was performed in 90 cases of young patients (≤60 years) with newly diagnosed DLBCL and an age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (aa-IPI) score of 2 or 3. All of them were treated with R-CHOP (32 cases, rituximab combined with CHOP), dose-intensive regimens (DA-EPOCH, Hyper CVAD/MA or ESHAP) combined with or without rituximab (25 cases), and consolidated with up-front auto-HSCT (33 cases), respectively. The efficacy and the potential predictors were evaluated. Results: ①The median age of 90 patients was 43 (18-60) years old. The median follow-up time was 42 (3-110) months. ②The 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) for R-CHOP group, dose-intensive chemotherapy group and auto-HSCT group were (33.5±10.7) %, (55.3±10.1) % and (65.8±13.6) % (P=0.012), the 5-year overall survival (OS) were (49.7±9.0) %, (61.6±10.2) % and (78.6±7.8) % (P=0.035), respectively. There was no significant difference in 5-years PFS and OS between the R-CHOP group and dose-intensive chemotherapy group (P=0.519, P=0.437) compared with that of the dose-intensive chemotherapy group, auto-HSCT group has higher 5-year PFS (P=0.042). ③ When stratified with IPI score, the high-risk group treated with auto-HSCT (26 cases) showed similar 5-years PFS and 5-years OS to those in the low-risk group with chemotherapy alone (12 cases were in R-CHOP group and 8 cases were in dose-intensive chemotherapy group) [5-years PFS were (62.3 ±14.3)%, (58.3 ±18.6)% and (51.4±18.7)%, respectively, P=0.686; 5-years OS were (69.2±13.9)%, (62.5±15.5)% and (58.3±18.6)%, respectively, P=0.592]. ④However, the high-risk group treated with auto-HSCT (26 cases) showed superior 5-years PFS (P=0.002) and 5-years OS (P=0.019) compared to the high-risk group with chemotherapy alone (20 cases were in R-CHOP group and 17 cases were in dose-intensive chemotherapy group) [5-years PFS were (62.3±14.3)%, (41.1±13.5)% and (21.9±11.6)%, respectively; 5-years OS were (69.2±13.9)%, (51.5%±14.0)% and (35.4±13.6)%, respectively]. ⑤In the univariate analysis, as a whole, patients diagnosed with GCB subtype had higher 3-years PFS (P=0.022) and 3-years OS (P=0.037) compared to non-GCB subtype patients; in subgroup analysis, patients diagnosed with GCB subtype had higher 3-years PFS and 3-years OS compared to non-GCB subtype both in R-CHOP group (P=0.030, P=0.041) and dose-intensive chemotherapy group (P=0.044, P=0.047), but not in auto-HSCT group (P=0.199, P=0.093). ⑥In the multivariate analysis, different molecular classification (GCB/non-GCB) was an independent predictor for PFS and OS both in R-CHOP group [HR=0.274 (95% CI 0.094-0.800), P=0.018; HR=0.408 (95% CI 0.164-1.015), P=0.045] and dose-intensive chemotherapy group [HR=0.423 (95% CI 0.043-1.152), P=0.048; HR=5.758 (95% CI 0.882-6.592), P=0.035]. However, there was no significant difference in PFS and OS for auto-HSCT group between GCB/non-GCB patients. Conclusion: Induction chemotherapy followed by up-front auto-HSCT has significant effect on efficacy for young and untreated patients with high risk DLBCL. Combined with induction chemotherapy followed by up-front auto-HSCT could improve the prognosis of non-GCB patients.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the characteristics and prognosis of clonal chromosomal abnormalities appearing in Philadelphia negative metaphases (CCA/Ph(-)) cells in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Methods: The clinical data of 30 cases with CCA/Ph(-) during TKI treatment in Henan Cancer Hospital from August 2007 to July 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The univariate factor was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Multiple-factor was analyzed by Cox proportional risk model. Results: Of the 30 cases, 19 (63.3%) were males. At the first detection of CCA/Ph(-) the median age was 44 (rang 14-68) years old and the median treatment of TKI was 13 (rang 2-94) months. The clones proportion of first detected CCA/Ph(-)≥ 50% was found in 18 (60.0%) cases. TKI treatment for 3 months with BCR-ABL(IS) less than 10% was seen in 14 (46.7%) patients. 63.3% (19/30) of CCA/Ph(-) was transient (only one time) and 36.7% (11/30) was repeated (≥2 times) . Trisomy 8 dominant accounted for 60.0% (18/30) , -7/7q- for 13.3% (4/30) , loss of chromosome Y 6.7%. With a median of follow-up 50 months, 76.7% (23/30) cases were in complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) ; 63.3% (19/30) in major molecular response (MMR) , 43.3% (13/30) in undetectable minimal residual disease (UMRD) . The median event-free survival rate of (EFS) were 44 months, and 2-year and 5-year EFS were (82.1±7.3) % and (52.4±12.8) %, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) were 50 months, and 2-year and 5-year OS rates were (92.6±5.0) % and (77.2±14.7) %, respectively. Univariate analysis shows that the 2-year EFS of who in males, more than 2 times CCA/Ph(-), BCR-ABL(IS)>10% at 3 months after TKI were significantly lower than women, transient CCA/Ph(-), and BCR-ABL(IS)≤10% (P<0.05) . The 2-year OS rate in whom the occurrence frequency of CCA/Ph(-) more than twice was significantly lower than those with transient CCA/Ph(-) (P<0.05) . Multivariate analysis showed that CCA/Ph(-) was an independent risk factor (RR=4.741, 95%CI 1.21-18.571, P=0.018) for EFS in CML patients. Conclusion: Trisomy 8, -7/7q-, and -Y were the most common CCA/Ph(-) during TKI treatment, with high clones proportion of ≥50%. CCA/Ph(-) mainly occurred transiently or was permanent occasionally. CCA/Ph(-) recurrence (≥2 times) was an independent risk factor for EFS and OS in CML with TKI.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the pregnancy outcome and disease status among patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) when they stopped TKI treatment during pregnancy. Methods: The clinical characteristics, reproductive outcomes and disease status of the patients who stopped TKI due to pregnancy between November 2004 to November 2017 were retrospectively collected. Results: A total of 14 CML patients in chronic phase (CML-CP), 12 patients were Sokal-low-risk. The median time of TKI treatment was 46.5 (15-123) months before the drug was stopped. The median age at the time of pregnancy was 29 (24-32) years. The median time of TKI exposure was 4 (0-9) weeks in 12 accidental pregnancies. Outcomes were available for 13 pregnancies, 9 cases (69.2%) delivered healthy babies, 1 case (7.7%) delivered polydactylia malformation baby, 3 cases (23.1%) had spontaneous abortion. The last one was still in pregnancy (no organ malformations were observed in color Doppler ultrasound). At the end of the follow up date, 10 children developed normal, the median age was 14 (0.7-65) months. Of the 14 patients who stopped TKI, 7 in complete molecular response (CMR), 3 in MR(4) (BCR-ABL(IS) <0.01%, ABL transcript >10 000), 2 in major molecular response (MMR), 2 in complete cytogenetic response (CCyR). The median time of TKI discontinuation during pregnancy was 33.5 (4-40) weeks. At the end of pregnancy, 4 cases were in CMR, 4 in MR(4), 1 in MMR and 4 in CCyR. No patients lost CCyR and complete hematologic remission. Conclusions: During the treatment of imatinib and Nilotinib, unplanned pregnancy may have a normal infant, but may lead to spontaneous abortion and congenital malformations. Female of CML-CP who had sustained and stable MMR at least 24 months and Sokal-low-risk had higher safety factor discontinued TKI during pregnancy, but still had a risk of increasing tumor load, so monitored the level of BCR-ABL of peripheral blood monthly during pregnancy is necessary.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sphingosine kinases (SPHKs), the Ki-67 index and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are associated with diverse human malignancies, including glioma. SPHK2, a subtype of SPHKs, has not been assessed in glioma or correlated with the Ki-67 index or TAM infiltration. We tested the hypothesis that expression of SPHK2 correlates with the Ki-67 index and TAM infiltration in patients with glioma. MATERIALS AND METHOD Western blot analysis was performed on protein lysates prepared from human astrocyte (HA) and glioma cell lines. Immunofluorescence was used to determine the subcellular location of SPHK2 protein in glioma cells. Next, immunohistochemistry was employed to analyze the correlations among SPHK2, Ki-67, CD68, and CD206 in 11 non-neoplastic brain tissues and 60 glioma tissues. All slides were evaluated under ×400 magnification, and the ratio of positively stained cells to the total number of cells was calculated for analysis. RESULTS SPHK2, CD68 and CD206 were all increased in glioma tissues compared to non-neoplastic brain tissues, but there were no differences between WHO grades of glioma. Ki-67 was highest in WHO grade IV tumors and lowest in non-neoplastic brain tissues, and all between-group differences were statistically significant. Moreover, SPHK2 expression was positively correlated with the Ki-67, CD68 and CD206 indexes. Finally, the CD68 and CD206 indexes were both associated with the Ki-67 index. CONCLUSION SPHK2 protein expression, the Ki-67 index and TAM infiltration in human glioma tissue were reported in this study for the first time. SPHK2 was positively associated with TAM infiltration and glioma proliferation. Mechanistically, SPHK2 may promote glioma growth by stimulating TAMs to polarize M2-type macrophages.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the molecular-cytogenetic characterization and impact on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) therapy in chronic phase of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP) patients with variant Ph chromosome (vPh). Methods: The clinical data of 32 patients with vPh chromosomes were collected and compared with 703 patients with typical Ph chromosome in newly diagnosed CML-CP who were on first-line imatinib (IM) and with BCR-ABL transcript of P210. Results: There was no significant difference in demographic and hematological characteristics between vPh and classic Ph patients. 3(9.4%) of the 32 vPh cases were simple variant translocations. Among the remaining 29 cases with complex variant translocations, 28 cases (87.5%) involved 3 chromosomes, and only 1 (3.1%) involved 4 chromosomes. Except for 8, 15, 18, X, and Y chromosomes, the other chromosomes were involved. The frequency of chromosome 12q(15.5%) and 1p (12.1%) were higher involved. The most common FISH signal pattern was 2G2R1Y (74.1%), followed by 1G1R2F (14.8%), 2G1R1Y (3.7%), 1G2R1Y (3.7%), 1G1R1Y (3.7%). The comparison of complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) (P=0.269), major molecular response (MMR) (P=0.391) were carried out between simple and complex mechanisms, without difference. Compared with the classic Ph, the patients with vPh had higher IM primary resistance rate (χ2=3.978, P=0.046), especially primary hematological resistance (χ2=7.870, P=0.005), but the difference of CCyR (χ2=0.192, P=0.661), MMR (χ2=0.822, P=0.365), EFS (χ2=0.509, P=0.476), OS (χ2=3.485, P=0.062) were not statistically significant, and multivariate analysis showed that the presence of vPh did not affect OS (RR=0.692, 95%CI 0.393-1.765, P=0.658)、EFS (RR=0.893, 95%CI 0.347-2.132, P=0.126) and PFS (RR=1.176, 95%CI 0.643-2.682, P=0.703). Conclusion: CML-CP patients with vPh and classic Ph had similar demographic and hematological characteristics. Except for 22q11, 9q34, the frequency of chromosome 12q and 1p were higher involved. The most common FISH signal pattern was 2G2R1Y, and different mechanisms had no impact on TKIs therapy. Compared with cases with classic Ph chromosomes, the patients with vPh chromosomes had higher risk of IM primary resistance, especially primary hematological resistance, which can obtain deeper molecular response quickly after changing to second-generation TKIs and didn't affect long-term outcomes and OS.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the expression of three microenvironment related prognostic factors, i. e. programmed death 1 (PD-1), forkhead box protein 3(FOXP3) and colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor(CSF-1R) protein in classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (CHL) patients, and to explore the correlation between the protein expression and the prognosis of the patients. Methods: A total of 45 cases of CHL patients, who had been admitted to the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital and Chinese PLA General Hospital from February 2005 to August 2010 were analyzed, including clinical features, prognostic factors, and treatment regimens. CHL patients' specimens were collected and the expression of PD-1, FOXP3, and CSF-1R proteins analyzed by immunohistochemical staining. Epstein-Barr virus encoded mRNA (EBER) was detected by in situ hybridization analysis. The relationship between the protein expression of PD-1, FOXP3 and CSF-1R and the patients' outcome was analyzed with clinical and follow-up data. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method, the Cox proportional hazard model was used to perform multivariate analysis. Results: In this cohort of 45 CHL patients, PD-1 positive was found in 7 cases (15.6%), FOXP3 high expression in 23 cases (51.1%), CSF-1R positive in 18 cases (40.0%). In the univariate analysis, the expression of FOXP3 and CSF-1R, International Prognostic Index (IPI) score, Ann Arbor stage and EBER were related with the patients' 5-year overall survival (OS); IPI score, the expression of FOXP3 and EBER were related with the patients' 5-year progress-free survival (PFS). Multivariate analysis indicated that CSF-1R protein expression was the independent prognostic factor affecting the patients' 5-year OS(HR: 8.918, P=0.020), and FOXP3 protein expression was the independent prognostic factor affecting the patients' 5-year PFS (HR: 0.122, P<0.001). And EBV was an independent prognostic factor of PFS and OS in the CHL patients. Conclusion: Microenvironment related prognostic factors FOXP3, CSF-1R and EBV may be independent prognostic factors of CHL and this study may provide novel strategies for targeted therapy of CHL.

Abstract
To retrospectively analyze the efficacy of interferon plus imatinib (IM) in patients with chronic-phase chronic myelogenous leukemia(CML-CP)and ABL kinase domain mutations. The mutation rates of ABL kinase region in patients with Sokal score low, medium and high risk CML-CP were statistically significant (6.25%, 9.42% and 47.06%, P<0.05). The response rates of interferon plus IM versus second-generation TKI in CML-CP with non-T315I ABL kinase domain mutations were comparable (61.11% vs 65.52%, P>0.05). When CML-CP patients with ABL kinase domain mutations were resistant to TKI or not accessible to second-generation TKI, interferon plus IM can be an alternative choice.

Abstract
Over many years, parts of Panax ginseng (root and rhizome) have been identified and applied for medical purposes as traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Recently, research has indicated that ginseng fruit also contains similar compounds and is as rich as the other parts of the ginseng. This discovery may dramatically improve the efficient of outputs derived from ginseng products. Here, a new technique combining high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) was employed to identify the fingerprint of P. ginseng fruit. Using HPLC, compounds that are important for medical purposes were extracted and purified. Combined with ESI-MS, the characteristic peaks (nine common peaks) of those compounds were identified, and the accuracy was confirmed by analysis using the Chromatographic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System (2004A edition). Overall, 15 batches of ginseng fruit had a similarity of more than 0.80, 13 batches of samples had a similarity between 0.97 and 0.99, and two batches had a similarity less than 0.90. The test solution and mobile phase selection was discussed. The HPLC-ESI-MS method can produce repeatable and reliable results and can be applied in the quality control of P. ginseng fruit.

Abstract
In order to present our experience with 10 cases of renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) and validate the applicability of Ki-67 (proliferation marker) for EAML, we reviewed medical records of 10 consecutive cases diagnosed EAML from January 2005 to February 2012 at our department. Clinical data were collected and analyzed and pathology slides were reviewed. The immunohistochemical reactions for Ki-67 were performed and tumors showed positive expression were estimated. Active follow-up was performed to investigate the association between Ki-67 expression and the prognosis. The mean age and tumor size of the patients was 43.6 years (range 32-56) and 8.2 cm (range 2-15 cm), respectively. Seven were females while three were males. Radical nephrectomy was performed in 6 patients, partial nephrectomy in 3, and renal artery ligation in 1. The immunohistochemical reactions for HMB-45 (Human Melanoma Black), SMA (Smooth Muscle Actin) were positive but for S-100 were negative. The number of patients showing positive/negative Ki-67 expression was 5/5. The survival rate of the positive group was 20% (1/5) while 100% (5/5) of the negative group during the median follow-up time of 26.75 months (range 1-53). Recurrence, metastasis and death due to disease occurred in 1 (10%), 3 (30%) and 4 (40%) patients, respectively. Higher expression (positive) of Ki-67 indicates the presence of EAML and poor prognosis of patients. Surgical excision including radical and partial nephrectomy is a considerable approach to the treatment for its malignant potential.

Abstract
Memory impairment is considered to be one of the most prominent consequences of aging. Deterioration of memory begins in advance of old age in animals, including humans. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and/or free radicals-induced oxidative stress which is the major age-related changes, can lead to hippocampus damage and increase vulnerability to impaired learning and memory. Ginsenoside, the effective ingredient of ginseng, has been reported to have a neuron beneficial effect. In the present study, C57BL/6J mice aged 12 months were chronically treated with ginsenoside (three dose groups were given ginsenoside in drinking water for 8 months, the concentration of ginsenoside in drinking water was 0.028%, 0.056%, and 0.112% (w/v), respectively). Placebo-treated aged mice and young ones (4 months old) were used as controls. The efficacious effect of ginsenoside was manifested in the amelioration of memory impairment in aged mice by Morris water maze and step-down tests. Total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) have been used as the biomarkers of oxidative stress. In ginsenoside treated groups, the activities of T-SOD and GSH-Px markedly increased, and the levels of TBARS and the content of protein carbonyl decreased significantly in serum and in hippocampus. The activation of lipofuscin formation, disruption or loss of cristae in mitochondria, the irregular nucleus and condensed chromatin laid against the nuclear membrane in pyramidal cells of hippocampal CA1 region, which are all related to oxidative stress, were also reduced after ginsenoside treatment. Processes of memory formation and functional plasticity are associated with postsynaptic density-95 (PSD-95), protein kinase Cγ subunit (PKCγ) and brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). In the present study, we found that long-term ginsenoside treatment prevented age-related reductions of PSD-95, PKCγ, and BDNF in the hippocampus. These results demonstrated that long-term ginsenoside administration may prevent memory loss in aged C57BL/6J mice by modulating the redox status and up-regulating the plasticity-related proteins in hippocampus.

Abstract
Ba(1-x)K(x)Fe(2)As(2) superconducting samples (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5) were synthesized by the solid-state reaction method. In this contribution the doping effect of potassium on the lattice dynamics in this newly discovered Ba(1-x)K(x)Fe(2)As(2) superconductor has been investigated by extended X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy. The analysis shows that with potassium doping an increased disorder in the iron layers is mainly related to the softening of the Fe-Fe bond. Information about the electronic structure of these materials has also been obtained by looking at the X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectra that point out the presence of holes in the Fe-3d/As-4p hybridized orbital of the BaFe(2)As(2)-based system.

Abstract
Lattice vibrations have been investigated in TiB2, ZrB2 and HfB2 by temperature-dependent extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) experiments. Data clearly show that the EXAFS oscillations are characterized by an anomalous behavior of the Debye-Waller factor of the transition-metal-boron pair, which is suggested to be associated with a superposition of an optical mode corresponding to phonon vibrations induced by the B sublattice and an acoustic mode corresponding to the transition-metal (TM) sublattice. Data can be interpreted as a decoupling of the metal and boron vibrations observed in these transition-metal diborides (TMB2), a mechanism that may be responsible for the significant reduction of the superconducting transition temperature observed in these systems with respect to the parent MgB2 compound. The vibrational behavior of TM-TM bonds has also been investigated to study the occurrence of anisotropy and anomalies in the lattice vibrational behavior of TM-TM bonds.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study Twist expression in thyroid papillary carcinoma (PTC) by immunohistochemistry and to assess its usefulness as marker in the differential diagnosis of PTC, follicular adenomas (FA) and benign papillary lesions (BPL). METHODS Fifty cases of PTC, 48 cases of FA and 47 cases of BPL were evaluated using manual tissue chip and SP immunohistochemical stain to detect the expression of Twist and HBME-1, and comparing the staining to that of cytokeratin 19 (CK19). RESULTS In PTC, positive rates of Twist, HBME-1 and CK19 were 100% (48/48), 94.0% (47/50) and 78.0% (39/ 50) respectively; in FA, positive rates were 0, 6.7% (3/45) and 0 respectively; in BPL, positive rates were 7.0% (3/34), 2.1% (1/47) and 0, respectively. The differences between PTC and FA and between PTC and BPL were both statistically significant (P = 0. 000). The sensitivity of Twist, HBME-1 and CK19 was 100%, 94.0% and 78.0%; the specifity was 96.4%, 95.7% and 100%; overall accurary was 97.7%, 95.1% and 91.9%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Positive rates of Twist is higher than the other markers in PTC. Immunohistochemical staining of Twist has important significance in the differential diagnosis of thyroid lesions. Twist immunohistochemistry maybe helpful in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of PTC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) is a member of the C-C chemokine family and exerts strong chemoattractant activity in monocytes, macrophages, and lymphocytes. Rat pancreatic fibrosis induced by dibutyltin dichloride (DBTC) is considered to be an appropriate chronic pancreatitis model histologically and enzymatically, as has demonstrated in a previous study. AIM We examined the effect of human dominant negative inhibitor of MCP-1 (mutant MCP-1) on progression of chronic pancreatitis induced by DBTC in a rat model. METHODS We used the experimental model of chronic pancreatitis induced by DBTC in rats. Mutant MCP-1 or empty plasmid at a dose of 50 microg/body weight was administrated into rat thigh muscles on days 4, 11, and 18 after administration of DBTC. On days 14 and 28, we evaluated the effect of mutant MCP-1 morphologically and biochemically. RESULTS The mutant MCP-1 treated group inhibited early pancreatic inflammation and later pancreatic fibrosis histologically, and showed a decrease in serum MCP-1 concentration, intrapancreatic hydroxyproline, alpha-smooth muscle actin, and an increase in intrapancreatic amylase and protein content compared with the empty plasmid treated group. The mutant MCP-1 group also inhibited intrapancreatic mRNA expression of cytokines and chemokines. CONCLUSIONS : Our findings suggest that monocyte/macrophage recruitment and the systemic MCP-1 signal pathway contribute to progression of chronic pancreatitis, and that blockade of MCP-1 may suppress the development of pancreatic fibrosis.

Abstract
Our previous studies have shown that SHP-1, a SH2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase, is expressed not only in cells of hematopoietic lineages, but also in many non-hematopoietic cells under the control of an alternative tissue-specific promoter, P1. In this study, the activity of the P1 promoter was analyzed in a region spanning 3.5 kb upstream of the major transcription start site in non-hematopoietic MCF-7 cells. Using DNA footprinting, gel retardation assays and mutational analysis, we have characterized cis-regulatory elements that are essential to confer the P1 promoter activity. An upstream Sp1 element (-126 to -118) positively regulated this TATA-box-lacking promoter. Two inverted CCAAT-elements (-332 to -328 and -66 to -62) played important roles in regulating the SHP-1 gene expression, and transcription factor NF-Y predominantly bound to the two CCAAT-elements. Binding of NF-Y to the distal CCAAT-element enhanced the transcriptional activity of the P1 promoter. In contrast, binding of NF-Y to the proximal CCAAT-element and interacting with repressor(s) inhibited the promoter activity. Furthermore, incubation of MCF7 cells with 100 ng/ml trichostatin A, an inhibitor of histone deacetylase, significantly increased the activity of the P1 promoter. Mutation in the proximal CCAAT-element, however, eliminated the activating effect of trichostatin A on the promoter. Together, our data suggest that NF-Y factor can function either as a specific positive or negative regulator of P1 promoter activity in non-hematopoietic MCF7 cells.

Abstract
Cromoglicate lisetil (CL) is an orally deliverable prodrug of cromoglycic acid, having diethyl promoieties and a lysyl promoiety for its optimum drug-delivery. We examined the effects of CL on bovine type II collagen (CII)-induced arthritis (CIA) of male DBA/1J mice, an experimental model for human rheumatoid arthritis, and its action mechanism. CL (100 mg/kg/day) was given by gavage to CII-immunized mice once daily for 6 weeks, starting when arthritic symptoms became evident. Symptomatic scores of arthritis obviously elevated in non-treated CIA mice at week 6.5 after initial immunization and continued elevated thereafter throughout the experiment, the elevation which was reduced by CL. CL also improved radiographic score of phalangeal destruction and pathohistological indexes at the end of treatment period. Serum anti-CII antibody titer was increased in non-treated CIA mice and the elevation was reduced by CL treatment. Mast cells (MCs) number in arthritic region was increased in non-treated CIA mice but not by CL treatment. In conclusion, oral CL treatment proved beneficial in CIA mice. Observed correlation between the CL effect on CIA and that on MCs number suggests the potential contribution of MCs to accelerate chronic arthritic processes and may further implicate potential action mechanism of CL, which may act by regulating MC functions for chronic inflammation.

Abstract
In primary hepatocytes, overexpression of an insulin response element-A binding protein (IRE-ABP), a member of the SRY family of high-mobility group (HMG) proteins, inhibits CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPalpha)-mediated activation of the female-specific cytochrome P450 2C12 (CYP2C12) gene, but not the male-specific cytochrome P450 2C11 (CYP2C11) gene. IRE-ABP and C/EBPalpha have overlapping specificity for the C/EBPalpha target site in the CYP2C12 promoter and compete for binding to CYP2C12 DNA in vitro. In contrast, IRE-ABP and C/EBPalpha bind distinct sequences in the CYP2C11 promoter. A single amino acid substitution in the HMG domain of IRE-ABP impairs its ability to bind DNA and to inhibit the effect of C/EBPalpha on CYP2C12 gene expression. Therefore, the ability of IRE-ABP to inhibit C/EBPalpha-stimulated CYP2C12 gene expression requires a functional DNA-binding domain. Taken together, our findings suggest that SRY-like proteins can bind to a subset of sequences recognized by the C/EBP family of DNA-binding proteins and modulate gene transcription in a context-specific manner.

Abstract
1. The aim of this study was to investigate protein kinase C (PKC) gene expression in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). 2. Using the PKC oligodeoxyribonucleotide probes (gamma, epsilon), we detected PKC isoforms gene expression in the heart and brain of 4 and 20 week old SHR with those of age-matched Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats by northern blot analysis. 3. In the cerebral cortex, there were significantly increased levels of expression of the Ca2+-dependent isoform PKC-gamma in 4 and 20 weeks SHR compared with that of WKY, while Ca2+ -independent isoform PKC-epsilon did not differ between SHR and WKY. 4. In ventricular myocytes, there was a significant expression of the Ca2+-independent isoform PKC-epsilon in 4 and 20 week old SHR compared with that of WKY, while Ca2+ -dependent isoform PKC-gamma could not be detected in the same extracts of SHR or WKY. 5. We conclude that both of the Ca2+ -dependent and Ca2+ -independent PKC could be involved in the pathogenesis of SHR. Ca2+ -dependent PKC-gamma may be mainly involved in the modulation of blood pressure in the level of the central nervous system, while Ca2+ -independent PKC-epsilon could be related to the genetic myocardial hypertrophy.

Abstract
We have recently characterized two types of rat 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-delta 4 isomerase (3 beta-HSD) isoenzymes expressed in adrenals and gonads. In addition, we have cloned a third type of cDNA encoding a predicted type III 3 beta-HSD protein specifically expressed in the male rat liver which shares 80% similarity with the two other isoenzymes. Transient expression in human HeLa cells of the cDNAs reveals that the type III 3 beta-HSD protein does not display oxidative activity for the classical substrates of 3 beta-HSD, in contrast to the type I 3 beta-HSD isoenzyme. However, in the presence of NADH, type III isoenzyme, in common with the type I isoform, converts 5 alpha-androstane-3,17-dione (A-dione) and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to the corresponding 3 beta-hydroxysteroids. In fact, the type I and the type III isoenzymes have the same affinity for DHT with Km values of 5.05 and 6.16 microM, respectively. When NADPH is used as cofactor, the affinity for DHT of the type III isoform becomes higher than that of the type I isoform with Km values of 0.12 and 1.18 microM, respectively. The type III isoform is thus a 3-ketoreductase using NADPH as preferred cofactor which is responsible for the conversion of 3-keto-saturated steroids such as DHT and A-dione into less active steroids.

Abstract
The enzyme 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/5-ene-4-ene isomerase (3 beta-HSD) catalyzes the oxidation and isomerization of 5-ene-3 beta-hydroxypregnene and 5-ene-hydroxyandrostene steroid precursors into the corresponding 4-ene-ketosteroids necessary for the formation of all classes of steroid hormones. We have recently characterized two types of human 3 beta-HSD cDNA clones and the corresponding genes which encode deduced proteins of 371 and 372 amino acids, respectively, and share 93.5% homology. The human 3 beta-HSD genes containing 4 exons were assigned by in situ hybridization to the p11-p13 region of the short arm of chromosome 1. We have also recently elucidated the structure of three types of rat 3 beta-HSD cDNAs as well as that of one type of 3 beta-HSD from bovine and macaque ovary lambda gt11 cDNA libraries which all encode 372 amino acid proteins. The human type I 3 beta-HSD is the almost exclusive mRNA species detected in the placenta and skin, while the human type II is the predominant mRNA species in the adrenals, ovaries and testes. The predicted rat type I and type II 3 beta-HSD proteins expressed in adrenals, gonads and adipose tissue share 94% homology while they share 80% similarity with the liver-specific type III 3 beta-HSD. Transient expression of human type I and type II as well as rat type I and type II 3 beta-HSD cDNAs in HeLa human cervical carcinoma cells reveals that 3 beta-ol dehydrogenase and 5-ene-4-ene isomerase activities reside within a single protein and these cDNAs encode functional 3 beta-HSD proteins that are capable of converting 3 beta-hydroxy-5-ene-steroids into 3-keto-4-ene derivatives as well as the interconversion of 3 beta-hydroxy and 3-keto-5 alpha-androstane steroids. We have found that the rat type III mRNA species was below the detection limit in intact female liver while, following hypophysectomy, its accumulation increased to 55% of the levels measured in intact or HYPOX male rats, an increase which can be blocked by administration of ovine prolactin (oPRL). In addition, in female rats, treatment with oPRL for 10 days starting 15 days after HYPOX, markedly decreased ovarian 3 beta-HSD mRNA accumulation accompanied by a similar decrease in 3 beta-HSD activity and protein levels. Treatment with the gonadotropin hCG reversed the potent inhibitory effect of oPRL on these parameters and stimulated 3 beta-HSD mRNA levels in ovarian interstitial cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-delta 4 isomerase (3 beta HSD) enzyme catalyzes the oxidation and isomerization of delta 5-3 beta-hydroxysteroid precursors into delta 4-ketosteroids, thus leading to the formation of all classes of steroid hormones. In addition, 3 beta HSD catalyzes the interconversion of 3 beta-hydroxy- and 3-keto-5 alpha-androstane steroids. Clinical observations in patients with 3 beta HSD deficiency as well as our recent data obtained by Southern blot analysis using a human placental 3 beta HSD cDNA (type I) as probe suggested the existence of multiple related 3 beta HSD isoenzymes. We now report the isolation and characterization of a second type of cDNA clone (arbitrarily designated type II) encoding 3 beta HSD after screening of a human adrenal lambda gt22A library. The nucleotide sequence of 1676 basepairs of human 3 beta HSD type II cDNA predicts a protein of 371 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 41,921 daltons, which displays 93.5% and 96.2% homology with human placental type I and rhesus macaque ovary 3 beta HSD deduced proteins, respectively. To characterize and compare the kinetic properties of the two isoenzymes, plasmids derived from pCMV and containing type I or type II 3 beta HSD full-length cDNA inserts were transiently expressed in HeLa human cervical carcinoma cells. In vitro incubation with NAD+ and 3H-labeled pregnenolone or dehydroepiandrosterone shows that the type I protein possesses a 3 beta HSD/delta 5-delta 4 isomerase activity higher than type II, with respective Km values of 0.24 vs. 1.2 microM for pregnenolone and 0.18 vs. 1.6 microM for dihydroepiandrosterone, while the specific activity of both types is equivalent. Moreover, incubation in the presence of NADH of homogenates from cells transfected with type I or type II 3 beta HSD indicates that dihydrotestosterone is converted into 5 alpha-androstane-3 beta, 17 beta-diol, with Km values of 0.26 and 2.7 microM, respectively. Ribonuclease protection assay using type I- and type II-specific cRNA probes revealed that type II transcripts are the almost exclusive 3 beta HSD mRNA species in the human adrenal gland, ovary, and testis, while type I transcripts correspond to the almost exclusive 3 beta HSD mRNA species in the placenta and skin and represent the predominantly expressed species in mammary gland tissue. The present data show for the first time that adrenals and gonads express a type of 3 beta HSD isoenzyme that is distinct from the type expressed in the placenta.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The conversion of 3 beta-hydroxy-5-ene steroids by the enzyme complex 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-delta 4 isomerase (3 beta-HSD) is an obligatory step in the biosynthesis of all classes of hormonal steroids in classical steroidogenic as well as in peripheral tissues. To develop a model more closely related to the human, we have isolated and characterized cDNA clones encoding macaque 3 beta-HSD by screening a rhesus monkey ovary lambda gt11 cDNA library using a human 3 beta-HSD cDNA probe. Nucleotide sequence of 1629 bp from overlapping cDNA clones predicts a protein of 372 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 41,874 (excluding the first Met). The deduced amino acid sequence of macaque 3 beta-HSD displays 79.4% and 93.9% similarity with that of bovine and human 3 beta-HSD, respectively. RNA blot analysis performed under high stringency conditions of macaque poly(A)+ RNA samples using full-length 32P-labeled macaque 3 beta-HSD cDNA revealed the presence of an approximately 1.7 kb mRNA species in classical steroidogenic tissues, namely the ovary, testis and adrenal glands as well as in several peripheral tissues including the liver, kidney and epididymis. Computer analysis of the deduced macaque 3 beta-HSD protein sequence predicts the presence of an NH2-terminal membrane-associated segment as well as four additional membrane-spanning segments, thus suggesting that 3 beta-HSD is an integral protein. The availability of macaque cDNA should permit detailed studies concerning the tissue-specific expression as well as the hormonal regulation of 3 beta-HSD mRNA in classical steroidogenic glands as well as in peripheral tissues which are an important site of steroidogenesis in primates.

Abstract
The enzyme 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-delta 4 isomerase (3 beta-HSD) catalyzes the obligatory oxidation and isomerization of delta 5-3 beta-hydroxysteroid precursors into delta 4-3-ketosteroids which lead to the formation of all classes of steroid hormones. We report the molecular cloning of a third type of cDNA clone encoding rat 3 beta- HSD isolated from a rat liver lambda gt11 cDNA library. The nucleotide sequence of 1955 bp determined from overlapping cDNA clones predicts a protein of 372 amino acids which displays 80% similarity with that of rat type I and type II 3 beta-HSD proteins. RNA blot analysis reveals the presence of mRNA transcripts of 2.1 kb in male liver in contrast to the 1.7 kb mRNA species detected in adrenal and gonad poly(A)+ RNA. Ribonuclease protection assays using type I, type II and type III specific cRNA probes demonstrate the liver-specific expression of type III mRNA while the two others are expressed in adrenals and gonads. The type III mRNA species was below the detection limit in intact female liver while in hypophysectomized females, its accumulation was restored to 55% of the levels measured in intact or hypophysectomized male rats. The present data describe the presence of a third type of 3 beta-HSD mRNA species and its marked sexual dimorphic gene expression in the liver which apparently results from pituitary hormone-induced gene repression in female rat liver tissue.

Abstract
A 1169 base pair fragment of bovine 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-delta 4 isomerase (3 beta-HSD) cDNA was used to quantitate 3 beta-HSD messenger RNA (mRNA) levels in the bovine ovary during the estrous cycle. The content of 3 beta-HSD protein was measured by immunoblot analysis using an antiserum developed in rabbits against human 3 beta-HSD, whereas 3 beta-HSD activity was measured using [3H]pregnenolone, [3H] dehydroepiandrosterone, and [3H]androst-5-ene-3 beta,17 beta-diol as substrates. There was a parallel increase in 3 beta-HSD mRNA, protein content, and enzymatic activity levels from days 1-3 after estrus to maximal values at 50-100% above control on days 8-11 after estrus. Thereafter, all values decreased progressively until days 16-17 before a dramatic fall to 5% or less than maximal values on days 18-20 after estrus. Almost superimposable results of enzymatic activity were obtained with the three substrates, thus suggesting a unique 3 beta-HSD or parallel changes in the activity of multiple 3 beta-HSDs. The above-described changes observed during the luteal phase are almost exclusively due to variations in corpora lutea. In fact, 3 beta-HSD activity in ovarian follicles was approximately 10,000 lower than that measured in corpora lutea. The close correlation observed over a wide range of 3 beta-HSD mRNA, protein content, and activity levels suggests that changes of ovarian 3 beta-HSD activity are controlled at the level of 3 beta-HSD gene expression and/or 3 beta-HSD mRNA stability.

Abstract
The enzyme complex delta 5-3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-delta 4 isomerase (3 beta HSD) is involved in the biosynthesis of all classes of steroids, namely glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, progesterone, and sex steroids. To obtain information on the precise localization of 3 beta HSD in rat gonads and adrenal glands, two complementary cytochemical techniques were used; immunocytochemical localization was achieved with antibodies developed against purified human placental 3 beta HSD, while 3 beta HSD mRNA localization was achieved by in situ hybridization performed with a recently cloned rat 3 beta HSD cDNA. In the testis, specific immunostaining was restricted to the cytoplasm of the interstitial cells, while by in situ hybridization, specific silver grains were also seen over the interstitial cells. In the ovary, immunostaining was found in the cytoplasm of cells of the corpus luteum and theca interna, while the granulosa cells of the follicles showed no positive reaction. By in situ hybridization, a specific hybridization signal was observed over granulosa cells of the corpus luteum, which are mainly responsible for progesterone secretion, and to a lesser extent over theca interna cells, known for their role in secreting C19 androgens. In the adrenals, the three zones of the cortex were equally immunolabeled, whereas no staining could be detected in the medulla. Similarly, by in situ hybridization, silver grains were located over the zona glomerulosa, fasciculata, and reticularis, while no specific autoradiographic reaction could be observed on the chromaffin cells of the medulla. The present study provides new information about the precise cellular localization of 3 beta HSD in the adrenal glands and gonads in the rat, thus providing useful information about the site of action of 3 beta HSD, especially in the gonads. Moreover, the approaches used for localization studies, especially quantitative in situ hybridization, should provide a useful tool for assessing the role of hormones on 3 beta HSD expression in the different compartments of the gonads and adrenal glands.
