Correlative histochemical study providing evidence for the dual nature of human colorectal cancer mucin

Summary Luminal secretions within colorectal cancers have been assumed to be the counterpart of normal goblet cell mucin. The aim of this study was to establish whether secretory material within colorectal cancers may in fact be traced to different lineages: goblet cells and columnar cells. The distribution of the apomucins MUC1 and MUC2, non-O-acetylated sialic acid and the carbohydrate structures sialosyl Tn, Tn, Lewis^x, sialosyl Lewis^x and Lewis^y was studied in normal colorectal mucosa and colorectal cancer specimens using standard histochemical techniques. Unmasking of MUC1 and MUC2 was achieved using periodic acid and saponification-neuraminidase-periodic acid pretreatment respectively. Within normal and malignant epithelium, correlations and/or co-localization could be demonstrated for goblet cells with MUC2, non-O-acetylated sialic acid, sialosyl Tn, Tn (Golgi region) and sialosyl Lewis^x, and for columnar cells with MUC1, Lewis^x, sialosyl Le^x, Tn (cytoplasm) and Lewis^y (UEA-1). The goblet cell spectrum was associated with mucin-like (type I) luminal secretions within cancers, whereas the columnar cell spectrum characterized non-mucin-like (type II) secretions and intracytoplasmic lumina. These data indicate that colorectal cancer mucin can be broadly separated into two types: secretory mucin linked to cells of goblet lineage and up-regulated membrane-associated mucin of presumed columnar cell origin.

The expression of Lewisx on carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-related glycoproteins of normal and inflamed oesophageal squamous mucosa

Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-related antigens were detected histologically in normal and inflamed oesophageal squamous mucosa using polyclonal anti-CEA antisera and monoclonal antibodies recognizing CEA or NCAs (non-specific cross-reacting antigens). Expression was limited to the surface of more mature squames. Immunoblotting of detergent extracts of oesophageal mucosa separated on polyacrylamide gels using polyclonal anti-CEA antisera showed a number of CEA-related proteins, of 195, 145, and 80 kDa. CEA-specific monoclonal antibodies recognized only the 195-kDa glycoprotein. The lower molecular weight species were recognized by anti-NCA antibody DD9 and a CD66 antibody. The carboyhydrate antigen Lewis^x (Le^x, CD15), previously shown to be a marker of mature squames, was present predominantly on a subpopulation of the 195-kDa antigen and was demonstrable on the higher molecular weight component of a doublet recognized by the CEA antibodies. Expression of Le^x carbohydrate antigens in inflamed oesophageal squamous mucosa was shown to be significantly reduced relative to the expression seen in normal tissue. A suprabasal layer of CEA-positive, Le^x-negative cells became apparent in inflamed tissue showing altered glycosylation of the CEA under these conditions. It is postulated that CEA plays a role in maintaining the integrity of the squamous mucosa.     

Repression of the Lewis fucosyl transferase by retinoic acid increases apical sialosyl Lewisa secretion in colorectal carcinoma cultures

The rate of polarised secretion of sialosyl Lewis^a(19-9) molecular species (SiaLeams) by SW1116 colorectal carcinoma cells is stimulated at least ninefold by the presence of 3 μM retinoic acid (RA). In order to investigate the intracellular origins of this augmentation, carcinoma cell membranes, membrane subfractions, and media were studied to determine alterations in sialosyl Lewis^a levels, oligosaccharide composition, and core structures accompanying the capacity to increase export of this epitope. We observed a nine- to twentyfold increase in sialosyl Lewis^a epitope levels in a light membrane subfraction from RA-treated cells. Antigenic molecules of < 200,000 Mr on acrylamide gradient gels were concentrated in two doublets in the apparent Mr range 106,000–152,000 on Western blots. Carbohydrates analyses of oligosaccharides from SiaLeams of membrane subfraction and apical media indicated much higher fucose/mannose, fucose/sialic, fucose/sialosyl Lewis^a, fucose/total CHO, and (³H) fucose incorporation in control samples than RA samples. Western blots of samples from membranes subfractions and media indicated that, in contrast to the effect of RA on the sialosyl Lewis^a epitope, RA treatment did not augment cysteine-rich, PDTRP, blood group H-2, blood group A, and EGF receptor-like region epitopes in the media. In addition, Northern blots using the Lewis fucosyl transferase (FTIII) cDNA showed a dramatic diminution of mRNA encoding FTIII but apparently unaltered levels of sialyl transferase (ST4) mRNA. Since subterminal fucosylation of lactosyl termini blocks terminal sialylation, we conclude that one mechanism of sialosyl Lewis^a induction in this culture system is the lower expression of the Lewis fucosyl transferase mRNA. Therefore less subterminal fucosylation of GlcNAc permits the prior sialylation of terminal Galβ1-3 moieties at oligosaccharide termini destined for export from the Golgi.     

大肠癌相关抗原LEA的血清学诊断

为了探讨抗人大肠癌相关抗原LEA在大肠癌患者的血清学中诊断价值。本文采用双抗夹心ELISA方法,并应用抗人大肠癌单克隆ND-1对大肠癌患者和正常人的血清进行了LEA抗原水平的检测,以及与CEA抗原水平检测的对比研究。结果表明:LEA在大肠癌患者血清学诊断的阳性率为68.7％,正常人为3.1％,CEA分别为56.6％和6.25％,在大肠癌的早期诊断中Dukes(A B)期LEA的阳性率为66.7％,明显高于CEA的36.1％,两者相比有显著统计学意义(P<0.05)。本研究还发现,大肠癌患者血清中LEA水平的表达与肿瘤的Dukes分期无关,而与肿瘤的分化程度密切相关,在高、中、低分化的大肠癌患者的血清中LEA的阳性表达率分别为86.8％、78.6％和11.8％,CEA则分别为71.1％、60.7％和17.6％。LEA在早期癌的阳性率为66.7％、晚期癌为70.2％,CEA分别为36.1％和72.3％。由此可见LEA在对人大肠癌患者血清学诊断的灵敏度和特异性均比CEA高,LEA对于高、中分化大肠癌患者的早期诊断,早期治疗和提高大肠癌患者的生存率方面将具有很重要的意义,是临床上具有应用价值的新型肿瘤标志物。     

结直肠癌组织中Ezrin和P53的表达及临床病理特征的关系研究

目的:探讨结直肠癌组织中Ezrin和P53的表达及临床病理特征的关系。方法:选取2014年5月至2016年6月我院收治的140例结直肠癌患者,行手术切除结直肠癌组织,经纳入排除标准后,94例癌组织标本纳入本研究并作为研究组,并从中抽取35例手术标本切缘的正常结直肠黏膜组织作为对照组,采用免疫组化测定Ezrin和P53的表达情况,并对两者进行相关性分析。结果:Ezrin、p53蛋白在研究组的表达阳性率分别为52.13%、56.38%,明显高于对照组的0.00%(x~2=25.731、33.496,P0.05)。高、中分化患者Ezrin、p53表达阳性率分别为46.99%、51.81%,明显低于低、未分化患者的90.91%、90.91%(x~2=7.508,P0.05;x~2=4.401,P0.05);有淋巴结转移患者Ezrin、p53表达阳性率分别为77.05%、68.85%,明显高于无淋巴结转移患者的6.06%、33.33%(x~2=43.245,P0.05;x~2=15.846,P0.05);浸润深度T3、T4患者的Ezrin表达阳性率55.81%明显高于浸润深度T1、T2患者的12.50%(x~2=5.503,P0.05);TNM分期Ⅲ、Ⅳ患者Ezrin、p53表达阳性率分别为88.24%、74.51%,明显高于TNM分期Ⅰ、Ⅱ患者的9.30%、34.88%,(x~2=5.522,P0.05;x~2=5.036,P0.05)。49例Ezrin表达阳性患者中,p53表达阳性有11例,而56例Ezrin表达阴性患者中,p53表达阴性14例,Ezrin表达与p53表达无相关性(r=0.209,P0.05)。结论:Ezrin和P53蛋白均与结直肠癌发生和发展存在一定的相关性,有助于结直肠癌预后的判断。     

Incomplete synthesis of the Sd/Cad blood group carbohydrate in gastrointestinal cancer

Cancer-associated changes in cell surface carbohydrates, including incomplete synthesis of normal carbohydrate epitopes, strongly affect malignant and metastatic potential. Here, we report that compensating for the cancer-associated loss of a single glycosyltransferase, β1,4N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferese T2, dramatically decreased cell surface expression of both E-selectin ligands (sialyl Lewis^x and sialyl Lewis^a). This modification was associated with elevated expression of the Sd^a carbohydrate determinant, which is expressed in normal gastrointestinal mucosa and is strikingly downregulated in cancer tissues. Loss of E-selectin ligands resulted in decreased adhesion of cancer cells to activated human endothelial cells in vitro and eventually suppressed metastatic potential in vivo.     

Immunoscintigraphy of colorectal cancer using111In-labeled monoclonal antibody to mucin

A murine monoclonal antibody MLS102 recognizes sialosyl-Tn antigen in mucin and immunohistochemically reacts with more than 80% of colorectal cancer tissues. The purpose of this study was to assess the usefulness of this monoclonal antibody for the immunoscintigraphy of colorectal cancer. Planar and SPECT images were obtained on day 2 or day 3 after injection of 2 mg and 74 MBq¹¹¹In-labeled MLS102 antibody into 17 patients with colorectal cancer. Nine of 11 primary tumors and 4 of 6 locally recurrent tumors were detected. Positive images were obtained in all tumors larger than 4.5×2.7 cm. Three tumors of less than 2.5 cm and 1 recurrent tumor, which was missed by other imaging modalities, were negative. There were no adverse reactions. Human anti-(mouse Ig) antibody developed in 4 patients. Although improvement of detectability for smaller tumors needs to be pursued, the antibody MLS102 is potentially promising for use in immunoscintigraphy of colorectal cancer.

Predicting the progress of colon cancer by DNA methylation markers of the p16 gene in feces - Evidence from an animal model

A new noninvasive screening tool for colorectal neoplasia detects epigenetic alterations exhibited by gastrointestinal tumor cells shed into stool. There is insufficient existing data to determine temporal associations between colorectal cancer (CRC) progression and aberrant DNA methylation. To evaluate the feasibility of using fecal DNA methylation status to determine CRC progression, we collected stool samples from 14 male SD rats aged six weeks, and administered subcutaneous injections of either 1,2-dimethylhydrazine or saline weekly. p16 DNA methylation statuses in tumorous and normal colon tissue, and from stool samples were determined using methylation-specific PCR. Additionally, p16 methylation was detected in stool DNA from 85.7% of the CRC rats. The earliest change in p16 methylation status in the DMH-treated group stool samples occurred during week nine; repeatabilities were 57.1% in week 19 (p = 0.070) and 85.7% in week 34 (p = 0.005). A temporal correlation was evidenced between progression of CRC and p16 methylation status, as evidenced by DMH-induced rat feces. Using fecal DNA methylation status to determine colorectal tissue methylation status can reveal CRC progression. Our data suggests that p16 promoter methylation is a feasible epigenetic marker for the detection and may be useful for CRC screening.     

FC-2.15, a monoclonal antibody active against human breast cancer, specifically recognizes Lewisx hapten

 FC-2.15 is a murine IgM monoclonal antibody that recognizes breast and colon human carcinomas, chronic myeloid leukemias, Sternberg cells of Hodgkin’s lymphoma and some normal cells, such as peripheral polymorphonuclear granulocytes. It has been previously demonstrated that FC-2.15 recognizes the carbohydrate moiety of different glycoproteins. FC-2.15 is able to mediate the in vitro lysis of Ag-2.15⁺ cells by human complement. In a phase I clinical trial, FC-2.15 induced antitumor responses and reversible neutropenia was its main toxicity. In this work, analysis of epitope specificity has demonstrated that FC-2.15 specifically recognizes terminally exposed Lewis^x trisaccharide but not sialyl-Lewis^x, Lewis^a, trifucosylated Lewis^y, blood-group antigens A and B, globo H and gangliosides. In polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMN), myeloid leukemic cells and colon carcinoma T84 cells, Lewis^x was found to be almost exclusively N-linked to the protein core, whereas in breast carcinoma MCF-7 cells, Lewis^x appeared to be mostly O-linked. Treatment with neuraminidase increased detection by FC-2.15 in normal PMN, myeloid leukemia cells and T84 cells but not in MCF-7 cells. Received: 20 March 1997 / Accepted: 4 September 1997     

Cathepsin B/cystatin C complex levels in sera from patients with lung and colorectal cancer

A sandwich-type ELISA has been developed for quantification of the complex between the cysteine proteinase cathepsin B (CB) and its reversible tight-binding inhibitor cystatin C (CC) in normal and pathological sera. The assay is based on a combination of catching Ab (3E1), raised against CB, and a horseradish peroxidase-labelled detection Ab (1A2), raised against CC. Only the CB/CC complex is able to evoke a signal in this assay. The detection limit of the assay was 15.5 nM and the working range between 31.3-200 nM. The within and between-run coefficients of variance (CV) varied from 4.7% to 9.4% and 11% to 12.8%, respectively, demonstrating satisfactory reproducibility of the method. The concentration of the CB/CC complex was determined in sera from 90 healthy controls, 32 patients with non-cancerous lung diseases, 148 patients with lung and 32 patients with colorectal cancer. The CB/CC complex was significantly less abundant in sera of patients bearing malignant lung tumours than in those with non-cancerous lung diseases or healthy controls (p<0.001). In colorectal cancer sera its level was significantly lower in advanced stages C and D than in early Dukes' stages A and B (p=0.02). Our results show that the increased levels of CB in malignant sera are not impaired effectively by CC and support the hypothesis of hindered inhibitory capability during cancer progression.     

CCNB2在结直肠癌中的表达及临床意义

目的:探讨细胞周期蛋白B2(Cyclin B2,CCNB2)在结直肠癌组织中的表达及其临床意义。方法:选择45对结直肠癌组织及癌旁正常结直肠组织样本,分别采用实时定量PCR(qRT-PCR)方法和免疫组织化学技术检测CCNB2的mRNA和蛋白表达,并进一步分析CCNB2的表达与结直肠癌临床病理特征之间的关系。结果:结直肠癌组织中CCNB2 mRNA的表达显著高于癌旁正常结直肠组织,差异有统计学意义(P0.001),且CCNB2的mRNA表达与结直肠癌的肿瘤大小、浸润深度及TNM分期显著相关(P0.05),与年龄、性别、肿瘤位置、分化程度、脉管神经浸润、淋巴结转移和远处转移均无关(P0.05)。45例结直肠癌标本中39例表达(+~+++),6例表达(-)。CCNB2蛋白主要表达于结直肠癌细胞质中,少量见于细胞核。结直肠癌组织中CCNB2蛋白的阳性表达率为86.7%,显著高于癌旁正常结直肠组织,并与患者的性别、年龄、分化程度和肿瘤转移均无显著相关性(P0.05),但与肿瘤分期、浸润程度均显著相关(P0.05)。结论:CCNB2在结直肠癌中呈异常高表达,且与结直肠癌的发生发展相关,有望作为结直肠癌的诊断和预后预测参考指标。     

Therapeutic Targeting of Lewisy and Lewisb with a Novel Monoclonal Antibody 692/29

Background

Several monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) recognising Lewis^y, such as BR96, have reached the clinic but have failed to show good anti-tumour responses with an acceptable level of toxicity. No Lewis^b mAbs have been trialled in patients. In this study we compare the specificity of three mAbs; BR96 (Lewis^y), 2-25 LE (Lewis^b) and 692/29 that recognises a unique facet of both Lewis^y and Lewis^b. We then assessed the in vivo therapeutic effect of 692/29 using xenograft models.

Methodology/Principal Findings

Using a glycan array, each mAb was shown to display a different binding pattern with only 692/29 binding to both Lewis^y and Lewis^b. 692/29 was able to kill tumour cells over-expressing Lewis^y/b directly, as well as by antibody and complement mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC/CDC), but failed to kill cells expressing low levels of these haptens. In contrast, BR96, directly killed cells expressing either high or low levels of Lewis^y perhaps explaining its toxicity in patients. 2-25 LE failed to cause any direct killing but did mediate ADCC/CDC. Both 692/29 and BR96 bound to >80% of a panel of over 400 colorectal tumours whereas 2-25 LE showed lower reactivity (52%). 692/29 demonstrated more restricted normal tissue reactivity than both BR96 and 2-25 LE. 692/29 anti-Lewis^y/b mAb also showed good in vivo killing in xenograft models.

Conclusions/Significance

MAbs targeting both Lewis^y and Lewis^b may have a therapeutic advantage over mAbs targeting just one hapten. 692/29 has a more restricted normal tissue distribution and a higher antigen threshold for killing which should reduce its toxicity compared to a Lewis^y specific mAb. 692/29 has an ability to directly kill tumours whereas the anti-Lewis^b mAb does not. This suggests that Lewis^y but not Lewis^b are functional glycans. 692/29 showed good anti-tumour responses in vivo and is a strong therapeutic candidate.     

人白细胞抗原G在结直肠癌中的表达及意义

目的：在蛋白水平检测人白细胞抗原G（HLA-G）在结直肠癌组织中的表达,探讨HLA-G分子在结直肠癌不同分级和不同分期中的表达差异及在肿瘤逃逸中作用。方法：用免疫组织化学法检测结直肠癌和癌旁正常结直肠组织HLA-G的表达情况,用SPSS13.0软件、Kruskal-Wallis test进行分析。结果：HLA-G分子在结直肠癌组织中的表达率为42.3%（41/97）,在癌旁正常结直肠组织的表达率为0（0/20）;HLA-G分子表达与结直肠癌临床TNM分期（P〈0.05）和组织学分级（P〈0.01）相关。结论：HLA-G分子在结直肠癌组织中表达上调,且与结直肠癌的侵袭性生长密切相关;HLA-G分子可能下调宿主对肿瘤细胞的免疫应答反应,使肿瘤细胞逃避机体的免疫监视。     

Comparison of a Stool Antigen Test and Serology for the Diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori Infection in Mass Survey

Background: Serum antibody to Helicobacter pylori is tested in mass screening for gastric cancer along with the level of serum pepsinogens (PG) I and II. Recently, stool antigen tests have been developed as a new non-invasive test. We examined H. pylori infection by both serology and stool antigen test in a mass survey and compared the results to estimate applicability of stool antigen test for mass survey.
Methods: A total of 994 healthy adults who received mass survey in April 2005 were tested. There were 379 men and 615 women, and the mean age was 57.7 years old. Stool samples were used to measure a H. pylori- specific antigen by enzyme immunoassay. Serum samples were tested for the prevalence of IgG antibody to H. pylori , and the level of PGs I and II was also measured to determine the presence of atrophic gastritis.
Results: Infection of H. pylori was defined as positive 61.4% and 56.4% by serology and stool antigen test, respectively. The concordance of both tests was not affected by gender and age of the subjects but difference was seen in subjects with atrophic gastritis. In particular, positivity of stool antigen test (81.8%) was significantly lower than that of serology (88.7%, p  < .05) in 303 subjects with severe atrophic gastritis.
Conclusions: Stool antigen test, which detects present but not previous infection of H. pylori , would be applicable to diagnose H. pylori infection in mass survey. Usefulness of stool antigen tests for the screening of gastric cancer should be examined.     

Detection of circulating CEA-IgM complexes in early stage colorectal cancer

We have recently shown that alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA), biomarkers associated with hepatocellular carcinoma, may be detected in patient sera as circulating immune complexes with IgM, and that assessment of serum levels of AFP-IgM and SCCA-IgM may be used for the detection of liver cancer. In this study we measured the levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) as free form (FCEA) and complexed to IgMs (CEA-IgM) in sera of patients affected by colorectal carcinoma (CRC) at different stages as well as in healthy subjects. FCEA levels were above the 5 ng/mL cutoff in 43% of CRC patients (31/72) and CEA-IgM levels were above the 200 AU/mL cutoff in 38% of CRC patients (27/72). Serum levels of CEA-IgM immune complexes (IC) and FCEA did not overlap and 64% of patients (46/72) were positive for at least one marker without compromising the detection specificity (94%). Early detection of CRC was significantly improved by CEA-IgM IC assay. CRC patients at an early stage (stage 1) had elevated CEA-IgM levels in 29% of cases (7/24), while FCEA levels were elevated in only 8% of cases (2/24). These results indicate that CEA-IgM is a complementary serological marker to FCEA which is much more sensitive for early stage CRC, and that the combination of these biomarkers may be useful in the early detection of colorectal cancer.     

HM1.24 (CD317) is a novel target against lung cancer for immunotherapy using anti-HM1.24 antibody

HM1.24 antigen (CD317) was originally identified as a cell surface protein that is preferentially overexpressed on multiple myeloma cells. Immunotherapy using anti-HM1.24 antibody has been performed in patients with multiple myeloma as a phase I study. We examined the expression of HM1.24 antigen in lung cancer cells and the possibility of immunotherapy with anti-HM1.24 antibody which can induce antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). The expression of HM1.24 antigen in lung cancer cells was examined by flow cytometry as well as immunohistochemistry using anti-HM1.24 antibody. ADCC was evaluated using a 6-h ⁵¹Cr release assay. Effects of various cytokines on the expression of HM1.24 and the ADCC were examined. The antitumor activity of anti-HM1.24 antibody in vivo was examined in SCID mice. HM1.24 antigen was detected in 11 of 26 non-small cell lung cancer cell lines (42%) and four of seven (57%) of small cell lung cancer cells, and also expressed in the tissues of lung cancer. Anti-HM1.24 antibody effectively induced ADCC in HM1.24-positive lung cancer cells. Interferon-β and -γ increased the levels of HM1.24 antigen and the susceptibility of lung cancer cells to ADCC. Treatment with anti-HM1.24 antibody inhibited the growth of lung cancer cells expressing HM1.24 antigen in SCID mice. The combined therapy with IFN-β and anti-HM1.24 antibody showed the enhanced antitumor effects even in the delayed treatment schedule. HM1.24 antigen is a novel immunological target for the treatment of lung cancer with anti-HM1.24 antibody.     

First synthesis of two deoxy Lewisx pentaosyl glycosphingolipids

The Lewis^x–Lewis^x interaction has been increasingly studied, using a variety of techniques including nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, vesicle adhesion, atomic force microscopy, and surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. However, the detailed molecular mechanism of these weak, divalent cation dependent interactions remains unclear, and new models are needed to probe the nature of this phenomenon in term of key roles of the different hydroxyl groups on Lewis^x trisaccharide determinant involved in the Lewis^x–Lewis^x interaction. An interesting solution is to synthesize a series of Lewis^x pentaosyl glycosphingolipid derivatives in which one of the eight hydroxyl groups of Lewis^x trisaccharide is replaced by a hydrogen atom, and to test the adhesion induced by interaction of these derivatives, in order to gain insight into the functions played by the hydroxyl groups of the Lewis^x trisaccharide. This article describes the synthesis of 3d-deoxy and 4d-deoxy Lewis^x pentaosyl glycosphingolipids, to be used for study of the Lewis^x–Lewis^x interaction. Botao Fan: Deceased October 22, 2006
