Objective Investigate the effect and treatment prospects of urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor(uPAR)in human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) positive breast cancer. Method Aricals related effect of uPAR in HER-2 positive breast caner were retrieved through Pubmed, and the role of uPAR was reviewed. Results uPAR played a very important role in the HER-2 positive breast cancer, anti-uPAR monomer or uPAR binding inhibitors could inhibit the growth, invasion and metastasis of breast cancer cells. Conclusion uPAR is one of the effective target for breast cancer, and it provides a new breakthrough in the treatment of HER-2 positive breast cancer.
Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is a membrane protein which is attached to the cellular external membrane. The uPAR expression can be observed both in tumor cells and in tumor-associated stromal cells. Thus, in the present study, the human amino-terminal fragment (hATF), as a targeting element to uPAR, is used to conjugate to the surface of superparamagnetic iron nanoparticle (SPIO). Flowcytometry was used to examine the uPAR expression in different tumor cell lines. The specificity of hATF-SPIO was verified by Prussian blue stain and cell phantom test. The imaging properties of hATF-SPIO were confirmed in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of uPAR-elevated colon tumor. Finally, the distribution of hATF-SPIO in tumor tissue was confirmed by pathological staining. Results showed that the three cells in which we screened, presented different expression characteristics, i.e., Hela cells strongly expressed uPAR, HT29 cells moderately expressed uPAR, but Lovo cells didn't express uPAR. In vitro, after incubating with Hela cells, hATF-SPIO could specifically combined to and be subsequently internalized by uPAR positive cells, which could be observed via Prussian blue staining. Meanwhile T2WI signal intensity of Hela cells, after incubation with targeted probe, significantly decreased, and otherwise no obvious changes in Lovo cells both by Prussian blue staining and MRI scans. In vivo, hATF-SPIO could be systematically delivered to HT29 xenograft and accumulated in the tumor tissue which was confirmed by Prussian Blue stain compared to Lovo xenografts. Twenty-four hours after injection of targeting probe, the signal intensity of HT29 xenografts was lower than Lovo ones which was statistically significant. This targeting nanoparticles enabled not only in vitro specifically combining to uPAR positive cells but also in vivo imaging of uPAR moderately elevated colon cancer lesions.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapeutic effects of super-selective arterial catheterization with thrombolysis for central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO).MethodsThe clinical data of 16 patients with CRAO were collected. Aortic arch angiography with the catheterization through femoral artery firstly, and then the selective internal carotid artery angiography had been performed on all of the patients, including 12 ones who had undergone the urokinase thrombolysis therapy.ResultsIn the 16 patients, 3 with the severe straitness of the internal carotid artery and 1 with occlusion of incision of the ocular artery had not been treated by thrombolysis; and the others with occlusion of arterial trunk and CRAO had undergone thrombolysis therapy successfully. After the treatment, the visual acuity of the patients had improved in different degree and no systemic side effect had been found during the treatment.ConclusionsSuper-selective arterial catheterization with thrombolysis for CRAO may improve the visual acuity of the patients. The effects and risks of this treatment should be evaluated in further study.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:20-21)
Objective To explore the effect of renal microcirculation following severity acute pancreatitis (SAP) on renal injury and to explore the protection effect of urokinase on them. Methods A total of 192 Wistar rats were randomized divided into normal control group, SAP group, and urokinase group, then rats of 3 groups were sub-divided into 2, 6, 12, and 24 hours group, each group enrolled 16 rats. Of the 16 rats in each subgroup, 8 rats underwent blood flow of renal test, other 8 rats were sacrificed to get blood samples and to perform histopathological examination. The rat models of SAP were established by retrograde injecting with 5% sodium taurocholate into the cholangiopancreatic duct. Radioactive biomicrosphere technique was used to measure the blood flow of renal, levels of plasma thromboxane B2(TXB2) and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α (6-Keto-PGF1α) were tested by the TXB2 kit and 6-Keto-PGF1α kit, and histopa-thological changes of renal tissues were observed by using HE staining. Results Compared with normal control group at the same time point, the blood flow of renal were lower (P<0.05), activity ratio of TXB2 to 6-Keto-PGF1α were higher(P<0.01), and the histopathological injury were worse (P<0.01) in rats of SAP group and urokinase group. Compared with SAP group, the blood flow of renal at 2, 6, and 12 hours in urokinase group were higher (P<0.01), the activity ratios of TXB2 to 6-Keto-PGF1α were lower (P<0.01), and the histopathological injury were lighter (P<0.05) in all the 4 time points of urokinase group. Conclusions The renal microcirculation dysfunction and increase of activity ratio of TXB2 to 6-Keto-PGF1α may play an important role in renal injury following SAP in early stage. Urokinase can protect the renal from such injuries.
ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of kinetin on bleomycin A5 (BLM-A5)-induced pulmonary fibrosis in rats. MethodsSixty female Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups. Group A (n=20) was intratracheally injected with saline as control. Group B (n=20) were intratracheally injected with BLM-A5 to establish pulmonary fibrosis model. Group C (n=20) was intratracheally injected with BLM-A5 and received intraperitoneal injection of kinetin at 0.5 mL/100 g once daily. The rats were sacrificed on the 3rd,7th,14th and 28th day respectively. HE and Masson staining were performed to observe lung pathological changes. The contents of hydroxyproline (HYP),urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA),tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA),and PAI-1 in lung and plasma were measured by ELISA. ResultsAlveolitis was most obvious on the 7th day and pulmonary fibrosis was most severe on the 28th day in group B compared with other two groups (P<0.05). Alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis in group C were significantly alleviated compared with group B (P<0.05),but still more severe than group A (P<0.05). The HYP contents in group B,coincided with fibrosis,began to increase on the 7th day and reached the peak on the 28th day,significantly higher than those in other two groups (P<0.05). The u-PA contents of lung tissue in group B began to decline on the 3rd day,reached the minimum on the 7th day,and was still significantly lower than those in other two groups (P<0.05).On the 14th day, the u-PA contents had no significant difference among three groups. The u-PA plasma contents in group B began to decline on the 3rd day,reached the minimum and had significant difference compared with other two groups on the 7th day (P<0.05),and there was no significantly difference among three groups after the 14th day. The t-PA contents change of lung tissue and plasma in three groups were generally consistent with u-PA,but the t-PA plasma contents in group B were still significantly lower than those in group A on the 14th day (P<0.05). The PAI-1 contents of lung tissue in group B began to increase on the 3rd day,reached the maximum on the 7th day,was still significantly higher than those in other two groups (P<0.05),and there was no significant difference among three groups on the 14th day. The PAI-1 contents in group C decreased compared with those in group B (P<0.05),but still higher than those in group A (P<0.05),and there was no difference among them on the 14th day. The PAI-1 plasma contents in group B began to increase on the 3rd day,reached the maximum and was significantly higher than other two groups on the 7th day (P<0.05),and there was no significant difference among three groups on the 14th day. ConclusionThe contents of u-PA and t-PA are increased by inhibiting PAI-1 generation in lung tissue through kinetin treatment,so that,kinetin can suppress pulmonary fibrosis induced by BLM-A5.
Objective To investigate the expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) mRNA in gastric cancer tissues and cancer-adjacent tissues and the relationship between its expression and biologic behavior of tumor. Methods Fourty-eight cases with gastric cancer were detected for the expression of uPA mRNA by fluorogenic probe quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RTPCR). Results The positive expression rate of uPA mRNA was 83.3%, 25.0%, 93.8% and 62.5% in gastric cancer tissues,cancer-adjacent tissues, gastric cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis and with non-lymph node metastasis respectively. Expression of uPA mRNA was positively related with the invasion depth of gastric cancer. Conclusion Expression of uPA mRNA is significantly increased in gastric cancer and it can be used as an indicator to judge the metastasis and prognosis of tumor.
