چکیده

Our study was performed to sequentially analyze the expression of the intestinal mucin MUC2 and of the gastric mucin MUC5AC as indicators during progression of preneoplastic biomarkers in rat colon. F344 rats were sacrificed 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 36 weeks after injection of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH, 200 mg/kg, i.p.). The expression of MUC2 and of MUC5AC was studied by immunohistochemistry in preneoplastic lesions classified in two categories: histologically altered foci (HAF) and beta-catenin accumulated crypts (BCAC). HAF appeared 4 weeks after DMH injection. Their crypt multiplicity stagnated with time (3-4 crypts/foci) but gastric MUC5AC mucin was always observed in some goblet cells of the lesions of this category. In contrast, MUC2-immunostaining was not modified compared to the adjacent crypts. Double-immunofluorescence revealed that goblet cells which produced MUC5AC continued to express MUC2. In BCAC, crypt multiplicity and mucin expression strongly evolved with time. These lesions were observed only 8 weeks after DMH-injection. At this stage, 20% of BCAC showed a decreased MUC2 expression and 33% were MUC5AC immunopositive. At the 36-week point, 43% of BCAC had a reduced MUC2 staining and 90% were positive for MUC5AC. This immunopositivity was often observed in all the cells of these lesions. Seldom, some BCAC were depleted at the same time in MUC2 and in MUC5AC. Similar alterations in mucin expression were observed in human colonic pre-neoplastic lesions. These findings suggest that a decrease in MUC2 expression and staining of MUC5AC in non-goblet-like cells predicts histological progression of preneoplastic lesions.

Intestinal metaplasia of human stomach displays distinct patterns of mucin (MUC1, MUC2, MUC5AC, and MUC6) expression.

Intestinal metaplasia is a well-established premalignant condition of the stomach that is characterized by mucin carbohydrate modifications defined by histochemical methods. The purpose of the present study was to see whether the expression of mucin core proteins was modified in the different types of intestinal metaplasia and to evaluate the putative usefulness of mucins as "molecular markers"...

Regulation of mucin and glycoconjugate expression: from normal epithelium to gastric tumors.

Gastric epithelium is protected by a mucus layer rich in MUC5AC and MUC6 mucins synthesised by the superficial epithelium and the glands, respectively. These cell populations also express specific fucosyltransferases that determine the glycosylation pattern of these gastric mucins. The maintenance of the structure and properties of the gastric mucus has been related to the degree of glycosylati...

Alterations in Mucin Expression in Ovarian Mucinous Tumors: Immunohistochemical Analysis of MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6, and CD10 Expression

The aim of this study was to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6, and CD10 in ovarian mucinous adenoma (MA), mucinous borderline tumor (MB), and mucinous adenocarcinoma (MC), and to analyze the relationship between prognosis and these expressions. The expression of MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6, and CD10 was evaluated by immunohistochemical analysis in 29 cases of MA, 29 case...

Sequential analyses of the growth and morphological characteristics of aberrant crypt foci: putative preneoplastic lesions.

The main objective of the present study was to sequentially analyze growth and morphological characteristics of aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in the rat colon. Sprague-Dawley rats were given a single injection of a carcinogenic dose of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine-HCl and at varying time points ranging from 2 to 57 weeks, groups of 5 rats were terminated. The number and crypt multiplicity of ACF were dete...
