Aim: To investigate the effects of dendritic cells (DCs) transfected with full-length wild-type p53 and stimulated by gastric cancer lysates on immune response.
Methods: The wild-type p53 was transduced to DCs with adenovirus, and the DCs were stimulated by gastric cancer lysates. The surface molecules (B7-1, B7-2, MHC-I, MHC-II) of all DCs were detected by FACS, and the ability of the DCs to induce efficient and specific immunological response in anti-51Cr-labeled target cells was studied. BALB/c mice injected with DCs and Mk28 were established, and CTL response in mice immunized with Lywt-p53DC was evaluated. Tumor-bearing mice were treated with Lywt-p53DC.
Results: The surface molecules of Lywt-p53DC had a high expression of B7-1 (86.70 +/- 0.07%), B7-2 (18.77 +/- 0.08%), MHC-I (87.20 +/- 0.05%) and MHC-II (56.70 +/- 0.07%); T lymphocytes had a specific CTL lysis ability induced by Lywt-p53DC; the CTL lysis rate was as high as 81%. The immune protection of Lywtp-53DC was obvious, the tumor diameter in Lywtp-53DC group was 3.10 +/- 0.31 mm, 2.73 +/- 0.23 mm, 3.70 +/- 0.07 mm on d 13, 16 and 19, respectively, which were smaller than control, DC, wtp53DC and LyDC group (P<0.05). Tumor growth rate in Lywtp53DC group was slower than that in other groups (P<0.05).
Conclusion: DCs transfected with wild-type p53 and stimulated by gastric cancer lysates have specific CTL killing activity.

Purpose: Developmentally regulated GTP-binding protein 2 (DRG2) regulates microtubule dynamics and G2/M arrest during docetaxel treatment. Poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) acts as an important repair system for DNA damage caused by docetaxel treatment. This study investigated whether DRG2 expression affects response to PARP inhibitors (olaparib) using prostate cancer cell lines PC3, DU145, LNCaP-FGC, and LNCaP-LN3.

POLE status determination is necessary for the molecular classification of endometrial carcinomas (EC). However, this determination is only achievable by molecular techniques, which are not available in many practice settings. A previously published study reported elevated AMF/GPI and AMFR/gp78 levels in POLE-mutant EC.

The TP53 mutation is a poor prognostic factor for malignant tumors in a number of organs. The present study primarily aimed to clarify the impact of the mutant pattern of p53 on the prognosis and recurrence of gastric cancer. : For this purpose, 519 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for cancer were enrolled in the present study.

The role of RGPR-p117, a transcription factor, which binds to the TTGGC motif in the promoter region of the regucalcin gene, in cell regulation remains to be investigated. This study elucidated whether RGPR-p117 regulates the activity of triple-negative human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells in vitro. The wild-type and RGPR-p117-overexpressing cancer cells were cultured in DMEM supplemented with fetal bovine serum.

Background: Juvenile granulosa cell tumor (JGCT) of the ovary is a rare tumor with distinct clinicopathological and hormonal features primarily affecting young women and children. We conducted a complex clinicopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular analysis of five cases of JGCT.
Methods: The immunohistochemical examination was performed with 32 markers, including markers that have not been previously investigated.
