METHODS: DNEL technique and immunohistochemical technique were used to study the state of apoptosis, proliferation and p53 gene expression. A total of 100 gastric mucosal biopsy specimens, including 20 normal mucosa, 30 H. pylori-negative and 30 H. pylori-positive gastric precancerous lesions along with 20 gastric carcinomas were studied. RESULTS: There were several apoptotic cells in the superficial epithelium and a few proliferative cells within the neck of gastric glands, and no p53 protein expression in normal mucosa. In gastric carcinoma, there were few apoptotic cells, while there were a large number of proliferative cells, and expression of p53 protein significantly was increased. In the phase of metaplasia, the apoptotic index (AI, 4.36%+/-1.95%), proliferative index (PI, 19.11%+/-6.79%) and positivity of p53 expression (46.7%) in H. pylori-positive group were higher than those in normal mucosa (P【0.01). AI in H. pylori-positive group was higher than that in H. pylori-negative group (3.81%+/-1.76%), PI in H. pylori-positive group was higher than that in H. pylori-negative group (12.25%+/-5.63%, P【0.01). In the phase of dysplasia, AI (2.31%+/-1.10%) in H. pylori-positive group was lower (3.05%+/-1.29%) than that in H. pylori-negative group, but PI (33.89%+/-11.65%) was significantly higher (22.09+/-8018%, P【0.01). In phases of metaplasia, dysplasia and gastric cancer in the H. pylori-positive group, AIs had an evidently graduall decreasing trend (P【0.01), while PIs had an evidently gradual increasing trend (P【0.05 or P【0.01), and there was also a trend of gradual increase in the expression of p53 gene. CONCLUSION: In the course of the formation of gastric carcinoma, proliferation of gastric mucosa can be greatly increased by H. pylori, and H. pylori can induce apoptosis in the phase of metaplasia, but in the phase of dysplasia H. pylori can inhibit cellu展开更多

But this method has some shortages. p53 gene, which was found to be mutant in many human tumors, has been proved with broadspectrum anti-tumor effects. We reported a 23-year-old patient with recurrent HCC after irregular hepatectomy. The p53 gene was applied to this patient. We injected percutaneously and infused transcatheterally p53 gene (Gendicine, Shenzhen Sibiono Bentech, China) into his recurrent nodules in liver respectively and 4 d later, the patient received TACE therapy. In the 2 mo follow-up, the patient was in good clinical condition with normal liver function and no recurrence was identified. The case report proposed that recurrent HCC could be successfully treated with p53 gene therapy combining TACE.展开更多
