The combined therapeutic effect of cytokine-producing cancer cell vaccines and local radiotherapy was studied in a mouse glioma 261 (GI261) brain tumor model. Brain tumor-bearing mice were treated with cytokine (IL -4, IL-6, IL-7, GM-CSF, TNF-alpha, LIF, LT) producing vaccines made by in vitro transduction of GI261 cells with the corresponding adenoviral vectors. Vaccines producing either IL-4 or GM-CSF cured 20-40% of mice. The antitumor effect strongly depended on the secreted cytokine level. Vaccination therapy induced specific activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes measured by cell-mediated cytotoxicity assay. Brain tumors were heavily infiltrated by CD4+ lymphocytes after treatment with IL-4- or GM-CSF-secreting cells. GM-CSF vaccination induced moderate CD8+ infiltration, as well. Depleting either CD4+ or CD8+ lymphocyte subsets abolished the anticancer effect of GM-CSF-expressing cells. Strong synergism was observed by combining cytokine vaccination (GM-CSF, IL-4, IL-12) with local tumor irradiation: about 80-100% of the glioma-bearing mice was cured. The high efficiency of combined treatment was maintained even under suboptimal conditions when neither of the modalities cured any of the mice alone. This suggests that vaccination therapy might open a new potential in the clinical treatment of high-grade gliomas when applied as adjuvant to existing treatment modalities. 相似文献

Scanning electron (SEM) and light microscopy (LM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) techniques were utilized to determine the miscibility of misoprostol and HPMC in the films with a misoprostol content from 0 to 29%, prepared using ethanol and methylene chloride/methanol (MeCl2/methanol, 50:50). Transmission infrared (TIR) analysis was used to look for evidence of any interaction between misoprostol and HPMC. The LM and SEM analysis of the ethanol cast films indicated no oil droplets. The DSC thermograms of the films showed no evidence of a –33°C transition, which is characteristic of pure misoprostol. The DMA showed that the glass–rubber transition temperature (T
g) of the pure HPMC was lowered from 163 to 125–130 and 85–87°C in the presence of 10 and 27–28% misoprostol. Based on these results it is suggested that misoprostol is solubilized in HPMC at concentrations up to 29%. The TIR analysis of the films showed no evidence of interaction between misoprostol and HPMC. 相似文献

Balloon-mesh cytologic screening for esophageal cancer done in 255 asymptomatic high-risk United States veterans (age greater than 40 years, ethanol abuse for greater than 20 years, and cigarette smoking greater than 20 pack years) identified 37 patients with squamous cell dysplasia. Of the 37 patients with dysplasia, 28 were re-evaluated prospectively at 6-month intervals for up to 36 months by balloon-mesh cytology, esophagoscopy with vital staining and biopsies, chest radiographs, oropharyngeal examination, and indirect laryngoscopy. During prospective follow-up evaluation, cytology specimens were repetitively normal in 16 patients (57%), showed inflammatory changes in eight patients (29%), persisted as dysplasia in two patients (7%) (both had endoscopic and histologic evidence of esophagitis), and progressed to carcinoma in two patients (7%) (one esophageal, one laryngeal). Although histologic findings concurred with the resolution of dysplasia, biopsy specimens were characterized by a similar difficulty in distinguishing dysplasia from inflammation. Erroneous histologic diagnoses of carcinoma in situ were made in two patients with reflux esophagitis evident endoscopically and confirmed during the course of a 24-36 month follow-up period. The authors conclude that squamous cell dysplasia detected by balloon-mesh cytology is seldom a precursor of esophageal cancer in the high-risk U.S. population but, rather, is often related to esophagitis. Thus, balloon-mesh cytology has limited use as a screening method for the early detection of esophageal cancer in the United States. 相似文献

Argyrophil and argentaffin cells are rarely seen in female genital tract structures. Their presence in normal, apparently healthy ovaries has not been reported until the present observation. Histochemical and ultrastructural studies demonstrated cells within the ovaries of two nonpregnant patients in the reproductive age that belong to the neuroendocrine or amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation (APUD) system. The lack of other discernible pathologic conditions suggests that these cells may be normal cellular constituents within the ovaries and lends support to the belief of a neural crest origin for primary ovarian carcinoid not associated with teratomatous or mucinous elements. 相似文献

Diverse pathogenic mechanisms elicit different clinical manifestations in cow's milk allergy (CMA). Our aim was to determine the concentration of serum immunoglobulin levels to different cow's milk proteins in patients with CMA and to determine how these values were related to clinical symptoms and prognosis. Fifty children (mean age 10.9 months, range: 1–34 months) with previously confirmed CMA were enrolled in this study. All had various clinical manifestations of CMA, including gastrointestinal, skin, and respiratory symptoms. At the diagnosis of CMA the serum total and the milk‐specific immunoglobulin (Ig)E values were measured by enzyme immunoassay and fluoroimmunoassay, respectively, while the relative levels of serum IgA and IgG antibodies against different cow's milk proteins were determined by a sensitive enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results were compared to those of 30 non‐atopic age‐matched control children. On average, after 9.2 months (range 2–31 months) on a milk‐free diet, a repeated challenge was performed in 38 children. At the re‐challenge, 12 patients had clinical symptoms while the remaining 26 children were symptom‐free. The IgG antibody level to bovine serum albumin (BSA) was significantly lower in the patients than in the controls (median: 0.36 vs. 2.94, p < 0.01). There was a close correlation among all individual IgA and IgG antibodies to different cow's milk proteins. The anti‐α‐casein IgG level (of 2.10) in children with a positive reaction at the re‐challenge was significantly higher than in those with a negative reaction (0.89) (p < 0.05). The total IgE serum concentration was also significantly higher in those who had symptoms at the re‐challenge compared to those who did not have any reaction at this time (22.9 vs. 6.8 kU/l, geometric mean, p < 0.02). There was no association between the clinical manifestations and the IgG and IgA antibody levels to the cow's milk proteins studied, except for the anti‐BSA IgA level, which was higher in patients with gastrointestinal symptoms. The serum total IgE and anti‐α‐casein IgG levels could have prognostic values; their increase at the beginning of the disease may indicate the development of tolerance to cow's milk only at a later age and after a longer duration of CMA. However, as there is considerable overlap among the values observed in different groups of patients, there is a limitation of these tests for predicting the prognosis. 相似文献

Three West-Indian black siblings with the sickle cell trait developed retroperitoneal fibrosis, a previously unreported association. Other well known renal manifestations associated with the sickle cell trait were also present in some of these cases and included renal medullary necrosis and spontaneous hematuria. It is postulated that the sickling of the erythrocytes in the periureteral vessels resulted in thrombosis, ischemia, reactive scarring and progressive fibrosis indistinguishable from the known histological picture of retroperitoneal fibrosis. The finding of fibrin thrombi in the small veins of the fibrotic tissue of one of these patients would support this explanation. 相似文献
