目的:探讨膀胱镜检对BPH患者血清前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)、游离PsA(FPSA)的影响.方法:32例BPH患者,均行膀胱镜检,研究其对患者血清PSA、FPSA的影响程度及时阃.结果:膀胱镜检前患者平均血清PSA值为2.28±1.86ng/ml,FPSA值0.48±0.31ng/ml;镜检后24h内PSA值4.89±3.72ng/ml,FPSA值1.07±0.65ng/ml;镜检后第3天患者平均血清PSA值2.42±1.92ng/ml,FPSA值0.51±0.28ng/ml.镜检后24h内患者血清PSA、FPSA值较镜检前相比P<0.05,有统计学意义;镜检后第3天患者血清PSA、FPSA值较镜检前相比P>0.05,无统计学意义.而各组F/T差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05).结论:膀胱镜检可引起BPH患者血清PSA和FPSA值显著改变,但对F/T值改变无影响,重复血清PSA和FPSA的测定可在膀胱镜检后72h进行.     

Protein Paucimannosylation Is an Enriched N‐Glycosylation Signature of Human Cancers

While aberrant protein glycosylation is a recognized characteristic of human cancers, advances in glycoanalytics continue to discover new associations between glycoproteins and tumorigenesis. This glycomics‐centric study investigates a possible link between protein paucimannosylation, an under‐studied class of human N‐glycosylation [Man_1‐3GlcNAc₂Fuc_0‐1], and cancer. The paucimannosidic glycans (PMGs) of 34 cancer cell lines and 133 tissue samples spanning 11 cancer types and matching non‐cancerous specimens are profiled from 467 published and unpublished PGC‐LC‐MS/MS N‐glycome datasets collected over a decade. PMGs, particularly Man_2‐3GlcNAc₂Fuc₁, are prominent features of 29 cancer cell lines, but the PMG level varies dramatically across and within the cancer types (1.0–50.2%). Analyses of paired (tumor/non‐tumor) and stage‐stratified tissues demonstrate that PMGs are significantly enriched in tumor tissues from several cancer types including liver cancer (p = 0.0033) and colorectal cancer (p = 0.0017) and is elevated as a result of prostate cancer and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia progression (p < 0.05). Surface expression of paucimannosidic epitopes is demonstrated on human glioblastoma cells using immunofluorescence while biosynthetic involvement of N‐acetyl‐β‐hexosaminidase is indicated by quantitative proteomics. This intriguing association between protein paucimannosylation and human cancers warrants further exploration to detail the biosynthesis, cellular location(s), protein carriers, and functions of paucimannosylation in tumorigenesis and metastasis.

Daily Rhythms of P‐glycoprotein Expression in Mice

Recent studies have shown the gene expression of several transporters to be circadian rhythmic. However, it remains to be elucidated whether the expression of P‐glycoprotein, which is involved in the transport of many medications, undergoes 24 h rhythmicity. To address this issue, we investigated daily profiles of P‐glycoprotein mRNA and protein levels in peripheral mouse tissues. In the liver and intestine, but not in the kidney, Abcb1a mRNA expression showed clear 24 h rhythmicity. On the other hand, Abcb1b and Abcb4, the other P‐glycoprotein genes, did not exhibit significant rhythmic expression in the studied tissues. In the intestine, levels of whole P‐glycoprotein also exhibited a daily rhythm, with a peak occurring in the latter half of the light phase and a trough at the onset of the light phase. Consistent with the day‐night change of P‐glycoprotein level, the ex vivo accumulation of digoxin, an Abcb1a P‐glycoprotein substrate, into the intestinal segments at the onset of dark phase was significantly lower than it was at the onset of the light phase. Thus, Abcb1a P‐glycoprotein expression, and apparently its function, are 24 h rhythmic at least in mouse intestine tissue. This circadian variation might be involved in various chronopharmacological phenomena.
