    Notizen: Summary Postmitochondrial and cytosolic polypeptides were extracted from human breast tumors and non-malignant breast tissue and analyzed using high resolution two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE). Approximately 800–1000 postmitochondrial and 600–800 silver stained cytosolic polypeptides were detected over the pH range of 4.8 to 7.5 and molecular weight range of 18–120 kDa. The 2D-PAGE patterns of polypeptides from normal and malignant tissue were very similar, although both qualitative and quantitative polypeptide differences were noted. Six cytosolic polypeptides (pI/molecular weight × 10−3) 5.20/80 kDa, 5.75/43, 6.25/40, 5.43/35, 5.45/34.5, 5.50/34 and 6.15/24 were expressed only in malignant tissues. One constitutive polypeptide, 7.25/52, was not detected in any of the malignant tissue samples. Quantitatively, marked differences in spot density were noted in polypeptides localized mainly in the molecular weight ranges of 22–40 kDa and pI ranges of 5.65–7.00. A general increase in polypeptide expression was noted in malignant tissues as compared to normal. Twenty-two polypeptides were significantly and consistently increased in tumor samples while only one polypeptide was decreased. One polypeptide, p24 (6.15/24) was expressed in greatest concentrations in tumors which also expressed the greatest estrogen receptor content. Expression of p24 was markedly reduced in normal tissue and malignant tissues expressing low levels of estrogen and progesterone receptors.

    Notizen: Summary Changes in body weight have been studied in 92 consecutive patients with primary breast cancer from the time of initial diagnosis and treatment. Sixty patients receiving tamoxifen were compared with 32 controls receiving no hormone treatment. Weight gain was seen in both groups, but was greater in the group receiving tamoxifen. Premenopausal women receiving tamoxifen had greater weight gain than postmenopausal women on tamoxifen therapy.

    Notizen: Summary The relationships of INT2 and ERBB2 amplification and of ERBB2 overexpression in primary breast tumors to prognostic factors, recurrence, and survival have generated considerable controversy. The rationale for this study is that long-term, recurrence-free survival is a more direct criterion for testing the validity of a tumor marker than correlation either with prognostic factors or with short-term recurrence and survival. We examined the association of recurrence with INT2 and ERBB2 amplification and ERBB2 expression by comparing primary breast tumors from patients surviving without recurrence for ≥ 8.5 years after diagnosis. the LTS group, to tumors from patients recurring within two years, the RR group. The RR (N = 63) and LTS (N = 61) samples were coded and examined for amplification by Southern blotting and for expression by immunohistochemistry. Comparison between the RR and LTS groups demonstrated that INT2 amplification was associated with a significantly (P = 0.018) higher (5.6-fold) risk of recurrence, an association that remained significant after controlling for lymph node (LN), tumor size (TS), and histograde (HG) status. ERBB2 amplification and expression were not associated with a higher recurrence risk. Survival analyses within the RR group, however, demonstrated significantly shorter survival time among cases with than without ERBB2 amplification (P = 0.018, median survival 16 vs 25 months), or ERBB2 expression (P = 0.019, median survival 15 vs 25 months), but not INT2 amplification. Univariate Cox proportional hazards regression models also demonstrated significantly shorter survival among cases with ERBB2 amplification (P = 0.016) or expression (P = 0.049), that remained significant in multivariate analyses (P = 0.022) for ERBB2 amplification. These results indicate a significant positive association between INT2 amplification and risk for tumor recurrence in the RR as compared to the LTS group. The relationship of ERBB2 amplification or overexpression to patient outcome is more complex. ERBB2 amplification and expression have a significant relationship with shorter survival among patients recurrent within two years, but their occurrence in tumors from women surviving without recurrence for ≥ 8.5 years suggests that ERBB2 status is not predictive of shorter survival for all breast cancers.

    Thema: Medizin
    Notizen: Summary A considerable fraction of first metastases in breast cancer patients are found in the skeletal system. Consequently, to improve the probability of detecting bone lesions, protocols of the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP) have required radionuclide scans every six months for the first three postoperative years and yearly thereafter. The present study was conducted to evaluate the worth of 7984 bone scans performed prior to documentation of first treatment failure on 2 697 stage II (positive node) patients entered into NSABP clinical trial B-09. At the time of evaluation, there were 779 patients with a treatment failure, 163 (20.9%) of whom had their recurrence limited to bone. At most, 52 (0.6%) of the total number of screening scans were efficacious in detecting lesions in asymptomatic patients. As a result of this minimal benefit from routine scans, it was recommended that they be conducted less frequently. In presently ongoing NSABP studies, asymptomatic patients having tumors with positive axillary nodes receive scans at yearly intervals for the first three years. Future NSABP trials will require follow-up bone scans only as indicated by symptoms.

    Thema: Medizin
    Notizen: Abstract The estrogen receptor α (ERα) is implicated in the development of breast cancer. The immunophilins, cyclophilin 40 (CyP40) and FKBP52, are associated with ERα and other steroid receptors in mutually exclusive heterocomplexes and may differentially modulate receptor activity. Since previous studies have not assessed the levels of these immunophilins in breast cancer, we examined 10 breast cancer cell lines for mRNA and protein expression of CyP40 and FKBP52 and for amplification of the CyP40 gene. In addition, 26 breast carcinomas, including seven with matched normal breast tissue, were examined for mRNA expression of both immunophilins. CyP40 and FKBP52 were ubiquitously expressed in breast cancer cell lines, but there were significant differences in their pattern of expression. FKBP52 protein levels were generally an order of magnitude greater than those for CyP40. FKBP52 mRNA expression correlated strongly with protein expression and was significantly higher in ERα-positive compared with ERα-negative cell lines. However, CyP40 mRNA expression did not correlate with protein expression, nor did expression of this immunophilin correlate with ERα status. Relatively high expression of CyP40 in one cell line (BT-20) could be attributed to amplification of the CyP40 gene. Both immunophilins were also ubiquitously expressed in breast carcinomas, and we demonstrate for the first time that both CyP40 and FKBP52 mRNA are overexpressed in breast tumors compared to matched normal breast controls. The overexpression of CyP40 and FKBP52, coupled with relative differences in their expression in tumors, may have important functional implications for ERα and other steroid receptors in breast cancer.

    Notizen: Abstract The relative amounts of the precursor (52 kDa) and processed (31,27 kDa) forms of cathepsin D have been analyzed by Western blotting in biopsied breast tissue cytosols from 134 lesions from invasive breast cancer patients, 24 lesions from patients with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), 227 lesions from benign breast disease patients, and 28 lesions from normal control subjects. The mean relative percentage amount of the 31 kDa form was significantly increased (p〈0.001) in the invasive breast cancer group compared to the other three groups. In addition, the mean relative percentage amount of the 31 kDa form was significantly increased (p〈0.05) in node-positive compared to node-negative breast cancer patients. In the benign breast disease group, patients with proliferative-type disease had a significantly increased (p=0.02) mean relative percentage amount of the 31 kDa form of cathepsin D compared to patients with nonproliferative-type disease. Invasive breast cancer patients were followed for up to 75 months to determine if the relative percentage amount of the 31 kDa form of cathepsin D was predictive of disease-free and overall survival. Although the amount of the 31 kDa form was not predictive of disease-free survival, patients in the ‘high’ 31 kDa group (〉18) were significantly (p〈0.05) more likely to die than patients in the ‘low’ 31 kDa group (≤18%). The 12 patients who died were all node-positive and in the high 31 kDa group. It thus appears that the relative amount of the processed, active 31 kDa form of cathepsin D is a useful prognostic indicator, at least in node-positive breast cancer patients.

    Notizen: The 2-aryl-2H-cyclopenta[e]-1,2,3,4-tetrazines 3a-n are formed by coupling of the diazocyclopentadienes 1a and 1b with arenediazonium salts and subsequent reversible electrocyclization of the primary coupling products 2a-n. From the solutions of the equilibrium mixtures of 2a ⇌ 3a - 2n ⇌ 3n the tetrazines 3a-d, h-k and the arylazo-diazocyclopentadienes 2e-g and 21-n crystallize. The 2-methyl-2H-cyclopenta[e]-1,2,3,4-tetrazines 3o and 3p are obtained by addition of methyllithium to 1a and 1b followed by a diazo transfer reaction and cyclization. In solutions of 3o and 3p the ring-opened isomers 2o and 2p could not be detected. X-ray analyses of 3h and 3p prove their bicyclic planar geometry in the solid state. 15N-NMR and temperature-dependent 1H-NMR spectroscopy have enabled a detailed study of the reversible ring closure reaction in the case of 2d ⇌ 3d. Reaction of 2-phenyl-2H-cyclopenta[e]-1,2,3,4-tetrazine (3b) with tetrafluoroboric acid results in the formation of the protonated monocyclic salt 4. Furthermore 3b undergoes electrophilic substitution reactions preferably at C-7, as demonstrated by bromination, formylation, and trifluoroacetylation. Photolysis of solutions of 2i/3i, 2k/3k, and 21/31 leads to the ketene imines 11a-c. The structure of 11c has been determined by X-ray crystallography.

    Notizen: Ab initio MO calculations at the QCISD(T)/6-31G* */MP2/6-31G* * + ZPE level on the XX′CP2 isomers (X = H1 F and Cl) show that the energies of the isomeric species are often reordered following halogen substitution. The phosphorushalogen moiety behaves as the main stabilizing factor on the rest of the molecular structure. This is particularly true when X = F is involved. In the dihalogenated series phosphanyl-phosphaalkyne (4) becomes the most stable species followed by diphosphaallene (3) and 1 H-diphosphirene (6). The effect on the geometry following halogenation is larger if substitution takes place at carbon than at phosphorus. The behaviour of the P species is found to be quite different from, if not opposite to, that of their nitrogen analogues. Finally, the infrared spectra of the most stable isomers are also predicted.

    Notizen: Bismuth compounds have been widely used in medicine for more than 200 years, and new bismuth-containing drugs are now being developed. However the biological chemistry of bismuth is poorly understood. We review here methods for the study of bismuth compounds, and use of Bi(III) in antiulcer, antibacterial, anti-HIV and radiotherapeutic agents is described. The chemistry of Bi(III) carboxylates and aminocarboxylates is dominated by intermolecular interactions which lead to polymeric structures. Bi(III) exhibits a highly variable coordination number and coordination geometry, and alkoxide ligands can induce a strong stereochemical “lone-pair effect”. Bi(III) can bind to both Zn(II) sites (e.g. metallothionein) and Fe(III) sites (e.g. transferrin) in proteins. Further work is needed to understand the relationship between the structures and dynamics of bismuth compounds and their bioactivity.

    Notizen: 3-Oxy-1-azabicyclo[2.2.0]hexa-2,5-dienes (“3-oxy-1-Dewar-pyridines”) 6a-d, on cleavage of the enol ether or enol ester function, yield either 1-azabicyclo[2.2.0]hex-2-en-5-ones (“1-Dewar-pyridin-3-ones”) 9 or 2-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-en-4-ones 11, depending on the substituents and reaction conditions. Ester cleavage of 2-(benzoyloxy)-1-Dewar-pyridine 7a with methyllithium does not furnish a 1-Dewar-2-pyridinone, but a dimer thereof, namely the tricyclic compound 14.
