PURPOSE: To compare the expression of VEGF in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and normal kidney. MATERIALS AND METHODS: RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were performed on tumour and normal adjacent kidney collected from 31 patients (29 RCC and 2 oncocytomas) as well as proliferating vascular endothelial cells (VEC) in culture. RESULTS: Expression of 3 VEGF isoforms was detected in normal renal parenchyma and all ROC by RT-PCR, but was not apparent in proliferating VEC. In 27 RCC, Western blot analysis demonstrated 3-37 fold increases in VEGF expression when compared to normal parenchyma. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated VEGF staining of both tumour cells and adjacent vascular endothelium. Normal kidney showed no staining for VEGF. In the 2 remaining RCC and both oncocytomas VEGF was not increased. CONCLUSIONS: VEGF expression is increased in RCC and may have a paracrine effect in these tumours in stimulating angiogenesis. 相似文献

Recent in vitro experiments indicated strong activity of 2',2'-difluorodeoxycytidine (dFdC, gemcitabine) in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell lines and an increase of efficacy by combined application of interferon (IFN). In the present study, nude mice with xenografts from ACHN- or SN12C cells were treated by dFdC, dFdC plus IFN-alpha or vinblastine (VBL) plus IFN-alpha. ACHN-xenografts were significantly more inhibited by dFdC+/-IFN-alpha than by VBL+IFN-alpha. Complete remissions (CR) were only seen by dFdC. An additional treatment with IFN-alpha shortened the time to commencement of tumor remission and increased CR of ACHN- and SN12C-tumors (40%; 7%) compared to a treatment with dFdC alone (20%; 0). dFdC+IFN-alpha reduced the number of pulmonary metastases compared to untreated animals. Survival was significantly prolonged by dFdC+/-IFN-alpha in ACHN-mice and dFdC+IFN-alpha or VBL+IFN-alpha in SN12C mice. In conclusion, experimental data confirm dFdC as a superior drug against human RCC compared to VBL. Combined therapy with IFN-alpha increased the efficacy of dFdC in terms of tumor response in immunodeficient nude mice, thus clinical studies are strongly recommended in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. 相似文献

The present in vitro study on three human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell lines (A-498, ACHN, SN12C) evaluated the efficacy of 2',2'-difluorodeoxycytidine (dFdC, gemcitabine), vinblastine (VBL), rhu-interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) and rhu-interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) alone or in combinations. The cytotoxicity was measured by using the sulphorhodamine B colorimetric cytotoxicity assay. Analyses were made from cells being continuously long-term (4 weeks) or short-term (4 h) with IFN-alpha or IFN-gamma with regard to the cytotoxicity of the chemotherapeutic agents. dFdC was more cytotoxic against ACHN and A-498 cells compared to VBL. Pre-treatment with IFN-alpha enhanced growth inhibition caused by dFdC (4/4 cell lines) and VBL (2/3 cell lines), and was more effective than IFN-gamma. Pre-exposure with IFN-alpha sensitized SN12C and ACHN cells for dFdC. A-498 cells achieved a decreased sensitivity to dFdC and VBL after pre-exposure to IFN-gamma. The resistance of newly established dFdC-resistant SN12C cells (23-times) decreased when pre-treated with IFN-alpha. The data demonstrate efficacy of dFdC in human RCC at concentrations below clinically achievable doses. dFdC was more effective compared to VBL. Combined therapy preferentially with IFN-alpha increased cytotoxicity of dFdC in vitro. In vivo studies in nude mice xenografts are under investigation to support these observations. 相似文献

Explants of highly metastatic human renal cell carcinoma SN12Cpm6 cells in athymic mice were treated with sodium D-glucaro-delta-lactam (sodium 5-amino-5-deoxy-D-glucosaccharic acid-delta-lactam; ND-2001). ND-2001 (50 micrograms/ml) caused 78% inhibition of lung metastasis of SN12Cpm6 cells (two of five animals remaining metastasis free). The in vitro tumor cell invasion assay showed that ND-2001 (100 micrograms/ml) suppressed the invasive activity of SN12Cpm6 cells to Matrigel matrix at an inhibition rate of 72%. These results suggest that ND-2001 may be a new anti-metastatic drug against human cancer cells. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Neoplastic transformation, including renal cell carcinoma (RCC), is always accompanied by changes in nuclear morphology. Nuclear grading of RCC is based on characteristic alterations in nuclear shape, size, area and other morphologic parameters. The nuclear matrix, which forms the skeleton of the nucleus, determines nuclear morphology. Alterations in nuclear matrix protein (NMP) composition specific to tissue and cancer type have been described in a variety of human cancers. We conducted a study to analyze the nuclear matrix protein composition of renal cell carcinoma and compare it to that of normal renal tissue and renal cell carcinoma cells grown in culture. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed the nuclear matrix protein composition of RCC tumor tissue and that of normal kidney tissue obtained from seventeen patients undergoing radical nephrectomy for RCC. We also analyzed the NMP composition of two renal cancer cell lines (A-498 and 769-P). RESULTS: We were able to identify five different and unique NMPs which were present only in the human RCC tumor samples and were absent in all normal kidney tissue. One NMP was found specifically in the normal kidney tissue. All five RCC specific NMPs were also identified in the nuclear matrix of the two cell lines analyzed. CONCLUSIONS: Five nuclear matrix proteins specific and unique to RCC were identified. These NMPs are different from those previously identified in other tissues and neoplasms. The RCC specific NMPs identified in this study can potentially be used as diagnostic markers for renal cell carcinoma and for therapeutic tumor targeting. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: Nephrocalcin (NC), an acidic glycoprotein produced by renal proximal tubule cells and functioning as an inhibitor of calcium oxalate monohydrate crystalization, has been previously shown to have increased urinary excretion in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The current study uses immunohistochemical techniques to localize NC to cells of primary RCC. METHODS: We studied 29 kidneys removed because of RCC. Slides were deparaffinized and stained after incubating with anti-NC antibody by using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex techniques. Uptake of stain by tumor cells and adjacent normal renal cells was compared. RESULTS: Twenty-seven kidneys (93%) showed positive staining for RCC tumor cells; 2 kidneys staining positive for normal proximal tubule cells failed to stain adjacent RCC tumor cells (7%). CONCLUSIONS: The data suggest that enhanced production of urinary NC in patients with RCC derives from cells of the primary tumor. 相似文献

The presence of mast cells near capillary sprouting sites suggests an association between mast cells and angiogenesis. However, the role of mast cells in blood vessel development remains to be defined. In an attempt to elucidate this relationship, we investigated the effect of human mast cells (HMC-1) and their products on human dermal microvascular endothelial cell (HDMEC) tube formation. Coculture of HMC-1 with HDMEC led to a dose-response increase in the network area of vascular tube growth. Moreover, the extent of neovascularization was enhanced greatly when HMC-1 were degranulated in the presence of HDMEC. Further examination using antagonists to various mast cell products revealed a blunted response (73-88% decrease) in the area of vascular tube formation if specific inhibitors of tryptase were present. Tryptase (3 microg/ml) directly added to HDMEC caused a significant augmentation of capillary growth, which was suppressed by specific tryptase inhibitors. Tryptase also directly induced cell proliferation of HDMEC in a dose-dependent fashion (2 pM-2 nM). Our results suggest that mast cells act at sites of new vessel formation by secreting tryptase, which then functions as a potent and previously unrecognized angiogenic factor. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of herbimycin A on the monolayer growth of 4 human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell lines and a normal renal tubular cell line (RTC 13) using MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiszol-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide)] assay. Herbimycin A induced remarkable growth inhibition in each RCC cell line tested, without any morphological changes of the cells. At the concentration of 500 ng/ml, herbimycin A caused more than a 30% growth inhibition in all RCC cells (p < 0.005 vs RTC 13), while less than 7% growth inhibition was observed in RTC 13 at the same herbimycin A concentration. The cell cycle was estimated by analysing DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) content using a FACS. A DNA histogram of RCC cells treated at herbimycin A showed a block in the cell cycle at the S and G2M phases. However, little effect by herbimycin A on RTC 13 cells was observed. Our results suggest that protein tyrosine kinases inhibitors, like herbimycin A, may offer a new treatment option for RCC patients. 相似文献

The mutant p53 gene was transfected into ACHN, a wild-type p53-containing human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell line. The colony forming efficiency in soft agar in the mutant-type p53-transfected cell line (ACHN/MP) was significantly higher than that in the vector-only transfected control cell line (ACHN/C). The anti-Fas monoclonal antibody (CH11) induced apoptosis in the ACHN/C cells in a dose-dependent manner, whereas the effect of CH11 on the ACHN/ MP cells was markedly suppressed. In addition, the cytotoxic effect of CH11 on the ACHN/MP cells was augmented by the pretreatment with interferon- , but the corresponding effect on ACHN/C cells was not. These findings suggest that Fas-mediated therapy could be a novel approach to RCC, if interferon- treatment is added according to the p53 gene status. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To determine the relationship between angiogenesis and various histopathologic features as well as clinical outcome in patients with localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS: Microvessel density was quantified by using immunocytochemical staining of endothelial cells for factor VIII-related antigen of 36 specimens taken from patients with pathologic Stage pT1 or pT2 RCC. All patients underwent radical nephrectomy and were followed for a mean time of 97.3 months. RESULTS: No association was noted between microvessel count (MVC) and either cell type, architecture, or tumor size. Inverse correlation was noted between MVC and nuclear area (P = 0.006), nuclear elipticity (P = 0.016), nuclear roughness (P = 0.039), and histologic grade (P = 0.047). Patients having tumors with low MVC had significantly better survival rate compared with those with high MVC neoplasms (P = 0.0014, by Cox proportional hazards method). CONCLUSIONS: Despite lack of correlation with known predictors of survival, MVC provides independent prognostic information for patients with localized RCC. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Experience suggests that tumor growth is dependent on angiogenesis. The intensity of angiogenesis in human cancer is reported to be predictive of the probability of metastasis in many types of cancer. The aims of this study were 1) to determine the relationship of microvessel density (MVD) in renal cell carcinoma to pathologic stage, and 2) to evaluate the role of MVD in metastasis. METHODS: Paraffin-embedded tumor specimens were reviewed from 34 unselected patients with RCC who had undergone surgery from 1986 to 1990 at Taichung Veterans General Hospital. The pathology findings and clinical records were reviewed to note relationships between pathologic stage and whether or not metastasis had occurred. Specimens were studied from 16 cases (eight Stage I cancers, five Stage II and three Stage III) without metastasis and from 18 cases (two Stage I, six Stage II, six Stage III and four Stage IV) in which metastasis later developed. Microvessels were highlighted by immunostaining endothelial cells for factor VIII-related antigen. Microvessels were counted in a x-400 field (0.1885 mm2/field) in the most active areas of neovascularization. RESULTS: The 16 patients without metastasis have survived for between 65 and 136 months (mean, 94.5 months), up to the present time. Of the 18 patients with metastasis, 15 died and three survived, with mean survivals of 42.8 months (range, 12-99 months). Mean overall MVD was 99.6 vessels; mean MVD was 98.5, 96.2, 109.3 and 90.0 in Stages I, II, III and IV tumors, respectively. Mean MVD was 99.3 in patients without metastasis and 99.9 in patients with metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: MVD does not correlate with pathologic stage and is of no prognostic significance in renal cell carcinoma. 相似文献

Cancer-associated expression of glycolipid sulfotransferase gene in human renal cell carcinoma cells
K Honke M Tsuda Y Hirahara N Miyao T Tsukamoto M Satoh Y Wada 《Canadian Metallurgical Quarterly》1998,58(17):3800-3805
Human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tissue and a cell line derived therefrom, SMKT-R3, showed markedly increased glycolipid sulfotransferase [cerebroside sulfotransferase (CST); EC 2.8.2.11] activity and accumulated sulfoglycolipids. Recently, we cloned a human CST cDNA from a SMKT-R3 cDNA library (K. Honke et al., J. Biol. Chem., 272: 4864-4868, 1997). In this study, we investigated the expression of the CST gene in seven human RCC lines (SMKT-R1, SMKT-R2, SMKT-R3, SMKT-R4, TOS-1, TOS-2, and ACHN) and their normal counterpart, human renal proximal tubular cells. On Northern blot analysis, a marked increase of CST mRNA was observed in every RCC line, except for ACHN, as compared with normal cells. ACHN cells showed a slightly increased level of CST mRNA. CST activity was correlated with the amount of mRNA. Sulfoglycolipid analysis revealed that expression of lactosylceramide sulfate was correlated with the CST level. Furthermore, we examined the effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF), tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, and genistein, which are known to regulate CST activity in SMKT-R3 cells, on CST-gene expression in various RCC cells. On treatment with EGF, CST mRNA time-dependently increased in accord with its activity in SMKT-R3 cells. Yet, augmentation by EGF was only observed in SMKT-R3. In contrast, a reduction of CST mRNA and activity by tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate and genistein was observed in all of the lines examined. Taken together, these findings indicate that in human RCC cells, the CST gene is generally overexpressed via a signaling pathway involving protein kinase-C and tyrosine kinases. 相似文献

The escape of malignant cells from the immune response against the tumor may result from a defective differentiation or function of professional antigen-presenting cells (APC), ie, dendritic cells (DC). To test this hypothesis, the effect of human renal cell carcinoma cell lines (RCC) on the development of DC from CD34(+) progenitors was investigated in vitro. RCC cell lines were found to release soluble factors that inhibit the differentiation of CD34(+) cells into DC and trigger their commitment towards monocytic cells (CD14(+)CD64(+)CD1a-CD86(-)CD80(-)HLA-D Rlow) with a potent phagocytic capacity but lacking APC function. RCC CM were found to act on the two distinct subpopulations emerging in the culture at day 6 ([CD14(+)CD1a-] and [CD14(-)CD1a+]) by inhibiting the differentiation into DC of [CD14(+)CD1a-] precursors and blocking the acquisition of APC function of the [CD14(-)CD1a+] derived DC. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) were found to be responsible for this phenomenon: antibodies against IL-6 and M-CSF abrogated the inhibitory effects of RCC CM; and recombinant IL-6 and/or M-CSF inhibited the differentiation of DC similarly to RCC CM. The inhibition of DC differentiation by RCC CM was preceeded by an induction of M-CSF receptor (M-CSFR; CD115) and a loss of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor (GM-CSFR; CD116) expression at the surface of CD34(+) cells, two phenomenon reversed by anti-IL-6/IL-6R and anti-M-CSF antibodies, respectively. Finally, a panel of tumor cell lines producing IL-6 and M-CSF induced similar effects. Taken together, the results suggest that the inhibition of DC development could represent a frequent mechanism by which tumor cells will escape immune recognition. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Nitric oxide (NO) is generated in mammalian tissue by the conversion of L-arginine to L-citrulline. The reaction is catalyzed by nitric oxide synthase (NOS). NO has been suggested to have a dual role in tumor biology with both antitumor and tumor promoter activity. Furthermore, it has been proposed that NO contributes to interleukin-2-induced antitumor activity. Since interleukin-2 is used in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) it was of interest to study the NOS activity in the human kidney and in RCC and its correlation to tumor grade. Furthermore, the effect of cytokine treatment on NOS activity and the effect of NO donor application was studied in cultured cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The effect of cytokine treatment on NOS activity and the effect of NO donor application on cell proliferation was studied in cultured human proximal tubular cells and in RCC cell lines HN4 and HN51. NOS activity was measured by the L-arginine to L-citrulline conversion assay. RESULTS: Calcium-dependent NOS activity was found in all non-malignant kidney tissues (486+/-63 pmol. min(-1) g(-1) tissue). The activity was significantly lower in RCC (24+/-6 pmol. min(-1) g(-1) tissue) and correlated with tumor grade; thus high grade tumors showed lower activity than low grade tumors. Calcium-independent NOS activity was not detected in non-malignant kidney tissue or in RCC tissue. In cultured proximal tubular cells and RCC cell lines HN4 and HN51, cytokine treatment induced a marked increase in NOS activity and NO exerted cytostatic effects on these cell lines. Conclusions: The NOS activity was higher in non-malignant kidney tissue than in RCC tissue and was inversely correlated with tumor grade. Furthermore, cytokine treatment induced a marked increase in NOS activity and NO exerted cytostatic effects on cultured proximal tubular cells and RCC cell lines. 相似文献

Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is a cytokine produced primarily by activated T lymphocytes. It exerts a variety of effects on different cell types, including monocytes, B lymphocytes, mast cells, and keratinocytes. The effects of IL-13 on target cells are often similar to the effects of IL-4, which is another cytokine product of activated T lymphocytes. We recently described the expression of intermediate- to high-affinity receptors for IL-13 (IL-13R) on renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells. In the present study, we examined the effect of IL-13 on the growth of RCC cells as measured by [3H]thymidine uptake and a clonogenic assay. In addition, we used an IL-4R-specific antibody to examine the specificity of IL-4R and IL-13R binding and function. We observed that IL-13 inhibited RCC cell proliferation by up to 50% and colony formation by up to 32% when compared with cells cultured in medium alone. A combination of IL-4 and IL-13 did not have an additive or synergistic effect on the growth of RCC cells. These cells expressed mRNA for IL-13 and secreted immunoreactive IL-13 protein in culture. The growth-inhibitory effects of IL-13 were specific, because they were not affected by antibodies to IL-4 or to the 140-kilodalton subunit of IL-4R. Furthermore, polyclonal antibodies to IL-4R failed to inhibit the binding of 125I-IL-13 to RCC cells. These results indicate that IL-13 has significant antiproliferative effects on human RCC cells, and the inhibition of IL-13 effects by anti-IL-4R antibody previously reported in lymphoid cells does not occur in RCC cells. 相似文献

The growth of a cholesteatoma requires angioneogenesis in the connective tissue of the perimatrix. Angioneogenesis is also needed for wound healing as a host response to tissue injury. Normal wound repair is conducted through a wide number of growth factors. Basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) plays a pivotal role in wound repair. This cytokine exerts its effects through stimulation of a wide range of target cells. B-FGF is chemotactic and mitogenic for fibroblasts, endothelial cells and keratinocytes. In addition, b-FGF can stimulate the production of collagenase and plasminogen activators to enhance fibroblast proliferation and angioneogenesis. Its necessity for normal wound repair has been confirmed by several workers. METHOD: In order to demonstrate angioneogenesis in the cholesteatoma perimatrix the distribution of b-FGF as the pivotal cytokine of the process was investigated in the perimatrix of 18 cholesteatoma specimens. RESULTS: B-FGF could be observed in 12 of 18 specimens (66%) in close approximation to histological signs of inflammation and wound healing. Areas with b-FGF also exhibited proliferation of the covering squamous epithelium. Cholesteatoma matrix tissue without inflammation or any sign of wound healing did not express b-FGF (6 of 18). CONCLUSION: Histological changes and distribution pattern of b-FGF in the perimatrix of cholesteatoma in the present study indicate that the perimatrix cells and substances of the wound healing cascade may play an important role in cholesteatoma development, angiogenesis and growth. 相似文献

Renal cell carcinoma is the most common cancer of the kidney,and resistant to traditional therapies.The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles on human renal cell carcinoma 786-0cells.Cell proliferation was assessed with an 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT)staining kit.The apoptosis assay was assessed with an FITC Annexin Ⅴ Apoptosis Detection Kit.Caspase-3 and caspase-12 were detected by immunocytochcmical staining and semi-quantitative RT-PCR.Cell wound healing assay was used to ensure cell motility.Matrigel invasion assay was analysed via transwell chambers.Our results showed that hydroxyapatite nanoparticles significantly reduced cell proliferation,invasion and induced apoptosis of 786-0 cells.The inhibiting action may have relation with up-regulated caspase-12,leading the cells to apoptosis.This study suggests that hydroxyapatite nanoparticles may be an effective and delivery system for renal cell carcinoma therapy. 相似文献

PURPOSE: In preclinical studies, we have reported the ability to induce immune T cells in lymph nodes (LN) primed by in vivo vaccination with tumor cells admixed with a bacterial adjuvant. These LN cells can be activated and expanded ex vivo for the successful immunotherapy of established tumors. We have applied these methods to generate vaccine-primed LN in patients with advanced melanoma and renal cell cancer (RCC) for therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Irradiated autologous tumor cells admixed with bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) were used to vaccinate patients. Seven days later, draining LN were removed for activation with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody (mAb) followed by expansion in interleukin-2 (IL-2). Activated LN cells were administered intravenously (IV) with the concomitant administration of IL-2. RESULTS: A total of 23 patients were evaluated (11 melanoma and 12 RCC). Vaccine-primed LN were expanded ex vivo with a mean of 8.4 x 10(10) cells administered per patient. Among 20 patients assessed, 15 demonstrated minimal cytotoxicity of autologous tumor cells by the activated LN cells, with the remaining mediating nonspecific cytotoxicity. By contrast, a majority of the activated LN cells showed highly specific release of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) to autologous but not allogeneic tumor stimulation. This tumor-specific cytokine release was found to be major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-restricted, which indicates the involvement of CD8+ cells. Among 11 melanoma patients, one had a partial tumor response. Among 12 RCC patients, two had complete and two partial responses. A trend (P = .066) between the enhancement of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactivity to autologous tumor after therapy and tumor regression was observed. CONCLUSION: Tumor vaccines can be used to induce immunologically specific T-cell responses against melanoma and RCC in draining LN. Anti-CD3/IL-2 activation of primed LN cells can be reliably performed for clinical therapy and appears to have activity in patients with metastatic RCC. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: In this paper, we reported nephron sparing surgery for renal mass in our hospital. METHODS: From March, 1994 to October, 1997, nephron sparing surgeries were done for 19 (11 males and 8 females, whose age were ranged from 38 to 75 years old) renal mass in our hospital. The sites of lesion were 12 in right side and 7 in left side. The tumor size were from 8 to 40/mm. Almost all cases were discovered incidentally. RESULTS: In all 19 cases, 6 cases were resultingly renal cell carcinoma (RCC). There was no difference in age, sex, tumor size and computed tomography findings between RCC and benign lesion. In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, iso intensity lesions of T2-weighted image were more frequent in RCC significantly. Postoperative 24 hours creatinine clearance and serum creatinine were not changed significantly compared with preoperative data. CONCLUSION: In MRI findings, iso intensity of T2-weighted image was useful for differential diagnosis between RCC and benign lesion. 相似文献
