On the basis of light microscopic observation, the ultrastructural localization of CEA in gastric cancer was studied by immunoelectron microscopic technique. The distribution of CEA in gastric cancer and its biological significance and the mechanism of abnormal distribution of CEA were further discussed.Among 104 surgically resected specimens of gastric cancer with PAP method at light microscopic level, the incidence of CEA(+) was 85.58%. All of mucinous carcinoma exhibited CEA(+). In tubular adenocarcinoma the incidence of CEA(+) showed a tendency to rising with the increase of degree of differentiation. In normal epithelia and intestinal metaplasia CEA was faintly present and was found only in the luminal surface. The CEA staining patterns in cancer cells were of three types--- cytoplasmic, membranous and weak reactive type. The ultrastructural localization of CEA in 14 cases of gastric cancer was studied by immunoelectron microscopic technique.There was a little or no CEA in the microvilli of normal epithelia. In intestinal metaplasia CEA was found on the microvilli of absorptive cells and among the mucus particles of goblet cells. In gastric cancer CEA was also distributed on the lateral and basal surface or even over the entire surface of cancer cells and lost their polarity completely. Many studies had proved that the alterations in surface glycoprotein were characteristic changes of tumor cells. The antigenic determinant of CEA was glycoprotein, so the alterations of tumor-associated surface glycoprotein opened up a new way for the diagnosis of tumors.

Contaminated water often affects the occurrence of periodontitis in the coastal area. The diabetic hypercholesterolemia-induced periodontitis in Indonesia is very high. The use of coenzyme Q10 to treat this disease has never been investigated yet. Therefore, this study aimedto analyze the effect of coenzyme Q10 on the lipid profile of diabetic hypercholesterolemia-induced periodontitis.Twenty four rats were randomized into 6 groups (G1-G6). The groups (G1-G3) are healthy, negative and positive control group respectively. The treatment groups (G4-G6) are diabetic hypercholesterolemia-induced rats given coenzyme q10 dose of 13,5; 27 and 54 mg/kg respectively. Rats were induced by periodontitis, hypercholesterolemia and diabetes mellitus. Coenzyme Q10 was administered orally using 2 mL gastric tube once a day for 14 days. Lipid profile including triglycerides, HDL, and atherogenic index (IA) was measured enzymatically by the CHOD-PAP method. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA test and followed by the Least Significant Difference (LSD) post hoc test.Coenzyme Q10 with a dose of 54 mg/kgis effective in lowering triglyceride, and atherogenic index and increasing HDL level in diabetic hyperlipidemia-induced periodontitis rats model. This research supports the potential effects of coenzyme Q10 supplementation to improve lipid profile in diabetic hypercholesterolemia-induced periodontitis in the coastal area.

Mullerian Inhibiting Substance

Mullerian Inhibiting Substance (MIS) has been localized in the Sertoli cells of the neonatal calf testis using preembedding immunoperoxidase techniques and a monoclonal antibody which almost completely blocks the biological activity of MIS. Both the peroxidase-labeled antibody method using a peroxidase-conjugated F(ab')2 fragment of IgG as a second antibody and the unlabeled antibody peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) method using Fab fragments of the PAP complex were employed. With both methods, MIS was demonstrated within the cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and the Golgi apparatus. In the Golgi, MIS was concentrated in the transmost cisternae especially at their peripheral expansions. This study indicates that MIS is synthesized in the RER and transported to the Golgi apparatus, presumably for glycosidation, before secretion from Golgi derived vacuoles.

Red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) peel contains anthocyanin, fiber and vitamin C, so it can be used to improve lipid profile in dyslipidemia. The peel of the dragon fruit is not durable, so in this study we used freeze-dried dragon fruit peel. The aim of this study was to prove that the administration of the red dragon fruit peel in a dose of 0.72 g/200 g BW, 1.08 g/200 g BW, and 1.44 g/200 g BW of rat per day for 28 days may improve lipid profile in male wistar strain white rats with high-fat diet. Lipid profiles were studied by examining of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. This was a pure experimental study using randomized post test only control group design. This study used experimental animal of 30 male wistar strain white rats which were divided into five groups. Measurements of total, LDL, and HDL cholesterol levels were done by CHOD-PAP method, while triglyceride level was measured with GPO-PAP method. Data were analyzed statistically by One Way Anova test. The results of this study indicated that giving the peel of red dragon fruit as much as 0.72 g lowered total cholesterol levels, 1.08 g lowered total and LDL cholesterol levels, and 1.44 g lowered total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglyceride levels, and raised HDL cholesterol level. Red dragon fruit peel can be used alternatively to improve lipid profile in dyslipidemia.

For many years, liquid-based cytology (LBC) has been developed for cervical cancer screening and not oral cancer, as it requires automated devices. The aim of this study was to compare the utility of centrifugated CLBC preparation with that of direct preparation in oral lesions, by Papanicolaou (Pap) and May Grünwald-Giemsa's (MGG) methods. A total of 100 consecutive cases of oral lesions were investigated. We compared the results obtained by the CLBC performed by cytocentrifugation with those obtained by direct smear applying Pap and MGG methods. The comparison between CLBC and direct smears was based on the thickening or adequacy of the smear, distribution of cells and staining quality. All smears in CLBC and direct preparation were found adequate. For thickness of the smear, 40% and 42% were excellent, 33% and 30% were good, and 27% and 28% were acceptable by LBC and direct preparation, respectively. For the distribution of cells and scantiness of background elements, 92 (92%) smears of the CLBC have revealed clear, well distributed smears, compared to 70 (70%) of those in direct preparation. For the staining quality with the Pap method, 39% and 69% were excellent staining quality, 25% and 20% were good, and 36% and 11% were acceptable for CLBC and direct preparation, respectively. In MGG method, 9% and 22% were excellent staining quality, 23% and 36% were good and 68% and 43% were acceptable for CLBC and direct preparation respectively. CLBC performed by cytocentrifugation is inexpensive, and reduces inadequate smears and background staining.

S-100 proteins represent a group of closely related acidic, calcium binding proteins originally isolated from the mammalian nervous system and later detected in non-neural cell types and in a wide variety of vertebrate and invertebrate species. The present study used immunochemical and immunohistochemical methods to extend the investigation of S-100 during phylogenesis to plant tissues. The presence of S-100-like immunoreactive material was detected in extracts of spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) terminal buds and young leaves by the ELISA method and by Western blotting using different anti-S-100 rabbit antisera. Using the PAP method, serial sections of young spinach leaves treated with the same antisera exhibited an immunoreaction product that was confined to the cytoplasm and nucleus (but absent from the vacuoles) in meristematic, epidermal, and parenchymal cells. The present data enlarge the field of investigation of S-100 proteins in the search of the function(s) of S-100 in biological organisms.
