Objective: To investigate the influence of combining RNAi-hTR plus hTERT genes upon the telomerase activity of bladder cancer BIU-87 cell line and provide new methods and evidence for RNAi in gene therapy of bladder transitional cell cancer.

Methods: Three hTR-specific double-stranded siRNAs and 3 hTERT-specific double-stranded siRNAs were designed targeting different regions of hTR and hTERT mRNA. siRNAs (systems-PhTR-siRNA, PhTERT-siRNA and combining systems-PhTR plus PhTERT-siRNA) were transfected into bladder transitional cancer BIU-87 cell line.

Objective: To investigate the expressions of VEGF in prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), their clinical significance and their relationship with that of ET-1.

Methods: A total of 44 specimens of PCa and 36 of BPH tissues were examined by the immunohistochemical Elivision plus method for the expressions of VEGF and ET-1. The intensity of staining for VEGF and ET-1 was assessed by light microscopy on a scale from "-" to "+ + +".

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the expression of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in prostate cancer (PCa) tissues and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues to determine its clinical relevance.
  • A total of 36 BPH and 44 PCa samples were analyzed using immunohistochemical techniques, revealing that all samples showed positive ET-1 staining predominantly in glandular epithelia and smooth muscle cells.
  • While there were no significant differences in ET-1 expression between BPH and PCa, it was found that poorly differentiated PCa had higher ET-1 levels compared to moderately and highly differentiated cases, suggesting ET-1 may play a role in the progression of these conditions.

Objectives: To study the occurrence of different anomalies associated with hypospadias and to instruct relevant treatment in clinical practice.

Methods: Three hundred and forty-one cases of hypospadias were investigated, all treated respectively corresponding to their specific anomalies.

Results: The morbidity of associated anomalies in cases of hypospadias was as high as 21.

Objectives: To evaluate the clinical significance of PSA and ECT bone scans in the diagnosis of bone metastasis in prostate cancer patients.

Methods: Sixty-seven cases of prostate cancer were reviewed, bone metastasis (BM) occurred in 44 cases, and 23 cases without BM (NBM). The relation between PSA, ECT and bone metastasis was analyzed.
