    Notes: Abstract We examined the existence and distribution of apoptotic cells in human gastric mucosa, chronic gastritis, adenomatous dysplasias and carcinomas in 15 surgically removed stomachs in which dysplasia and carcinoma were found simultaneously. Serial sections were cut for immunohistochemistry for p53 oncoprotein and Ki-67 antigen, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labelling (TUNEL). TUNEL signal-positive apoptotic cells were rare in normal mucosa, while a few apoptotic cells were noted in gastritic mucosa and intestinal metaplasia, intermingled with Ki-67 antigen-positive cells forming a generative cell zone. This suggests the cell-cycle-dependent apoptosis of gastric mucosa. The frequency of apoptotic cells per crypt was higher in incomplete than in complete metaplasia, implying greater underlying DNA damage in the former. TUNEL indices (TI; percentage of TUNEL-positive cells in tumour cells) were slightly higher in adenomatous dysplasias (4.9±2.1) than in carcinoma (3.9±1.1), but there was no no statistical difference. Ki-67 indices (KI; percentage of Ki-67 antigen-positive cells in tumour cells) were significantly (P〈0.05) higher in carcinomas than in dysplasias. Thus, gastric adenomatous dysplasias were characterized by relatively higher TI and lower KI, which might reflect a more static growth potential. The expression of p53 oncoprotein in cancer cells is thought to be an apoptosis-suppressing event, although its precise role remains to be elucidated. Overall, these results indicate that apoptosis plays a crucial part in the morphogenesis of gastritic mucosa including intestinal metaplasia, and that the process is correlated both with tumourigenesis and with proliferative activity.

    Notes: Summary This study presents measurements of serum vitamin D metabolites, calcium and phosphorus as well as measurements of the equilibrium dissociation constant for duodenal 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor in 15-, 18-, 19-, and 20-day chick embryos in comparison to that in 1- and 118-day-old chicks and to vitamin D-deficient chicks. The present results showed that: (a) serum 1,25(OH)2D and 24,25(OH)2D levels rise from 15 and 18 to days 19 and 20 of embryonic development while serum phosphate levels are stable; (b) serum calcium levels rise at hatching to adult levels; (c) the duodenal 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor is detectable in 15-day-old embryo and has a Kd similar to that of 118-day-old vitamin D-replete chicks; and (d) the activity of 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor in chick duodenal cytosol is maximal at hatching.

    Secondary hyperparathyroidism with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D deficiency and pseudohypoparathyroidism in childhood: Relationship between plasma 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and parathyroid hormone levels and urinary cyclic AMP response to exogenous PTH (1981)

    Notes: Abstract In order to clarify the complex interrelationship between serum calcium, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D), and parathyroid hormone (PTH), and the urinary excretion of cyclic AMP (cAMP) in response to exogenous PTH in pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) and related diseases, we investigated 3 patients with parathyroid disorders before and after treatment with 1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 (1α-OH-D3). Low plasma 1,25(OH)2D before treatment increased after giving 1α-OH-D3 (0.1 μg/kg/day), where-as high plasma PTH measured by the C-terminal assay (C-PTH) decreased in all 3. No response in urinary cAMP was found before or after treatment in 2 patients with PHP type I, despite the fall of plasma C-PTH. However, in one patient with extremely high plasma C-PTH but normal N-PTH (measured by a homologous radioimmunoassay using 1–34 human PTH), urinary cAMP response to exogenous PTH was increased after treatment with 1α-OH-D3. We suggest that he had pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP) with Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy and a partial deficiency of renal 1α-hydroxylase. In this patient secondary hyperparathyroidism is thought to be due to 1,25(OH)2D deficiency, and the decreased responsiveness to exogenous PTH before treatment due to excess PTH occupying renal receptors.
