Raman microspectroscopy and confocal Raman imaging combined with confocal fluorescence were used to study the distribution and aggregation of aluminum tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine (AlPcS4) in breast tissues.

This paper discusses the figures of merit associated with the synchronous luminescence (SL) technique in multicomponent analysis of complex samples. Spectral interferences and experimental factors that influence the choice of experimental conditions are investigated. The efficacy of SL is demonstrated in the direct determination of anthracene and 2-methylanthracene in a raw coal liquid. The application of the second-derivative technique to the SL measurement of organic samples is shown. Special emphasis is directed toward the applicability of the SL technique as a practical and cost-effective screening procedure in the routine analysis of complex organic samples.

Metastasis to the brain is a clinical problem in patients with breast cancer (1-3). We mined published microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes to discover genes associated with brain metastasis in patients with metastatic breast cancer. We report here the differential expression of the protein kinase AKT1 in the primary tumors and brain metastases of humans with breast cancer. AKT1 mRNA was present at significantly increased quantities in brain metastatic tissues as compared to primary tumors of the breast. These data combined suggest that up-regulation of AKT1 is a conserved event, both during transformation of breast tissues and progression to central nervous system metastasis and further point to potential importance of AKT1 modulation during progression of human breast cancer.

The polyamine biosynthetic enzymes ODC and SAMDC show higher activity in carcinomatous human breast tissue than in uninvolved tissue of the same breast; the interconversion enzyme PAO shows significantly lower activity in carcinomatous than uninvolved tissue. The polyamine metabolism in carcinomatous human breast tissue thus appears to differ from that in uninvolved tissue. Intracellular polyamine concentrations, particularly spermine, are high in carcinomatous tissue. This increase and that of the biosynthetic enzymes suggest that a higher polyamine concentration is needed for carcinomatous cell growth. If this is the case, the lower PAO activity in carcinomatous tissue may be explained as a mechanism that conserves the high intracellular polyamine concentration.
