배경: 폐암은 근치적 절제술이 가장 좋은 치료법이나 수술 후에 재발한 경우나 수술 시기가 지난 경우에는 항암 화학요법의 중요성이 강조된다. 항암 치료 전에 감수성 있는 항암 화학 치료제가 선별되어진다면 치료 효과를 극대화할 수 있다. 신피막하 분석법은 흉, 복부 종양의 생체 내 검사법으로 중요성이 인정되고 있고 항암 감수성 검사로서도 짧은 기간 내에 판별이 가능한 이점이 있다. 신장은 각종 암세포의 이식 장소로 잘 알려져 있으나 비장이나 간에서의 이식 성적을 비교한 연구는 없는 실정이다. 인체 암세포 이식의 실험방법 중에 비장과 간장에 암 세포주를 이식하였을 경우와 신장에 시행되는 신피막하 분석법에 의한 성장의 차이점 유무를 평가하였다. 대상 및 방법: 인체 폐암 세포주(SW-900 G IV)를 RPMI 1640 (Leibovitz L-15 medium)배지에서 배양하여 fibrin clot으로 만들어 $10^{8}$ 개의 암세포가 포함되도록 한 후 3${\times}$${\times}$3mm의 크기로 Spague Dawely (S.D.) 암컷 쥐의 신, 비장 및 간 피막하에 이식하였다. 이식 후 1일부터 6일간 면역억제를 위하여 cyclosporin-A (80 mg/kg)를 피하투여하였다. 이식 전후 실험동물의 체중 변화, 종양의 성장 여부 및 종양의 크기를 계측하고 병리 조직 검사와 혈청 내 암 표지자 검사를 실시하여 비교하였다. 걸과: 실험 5.D. 쥐의 체중 변화는 대조군이나 실험 군 모두에서 체중 증가가 있었다. 혈청 내 암 표지자의 정량 검사 결과 Cyfra 21-1은 검출되지 않았고, CEA및 NSE는 의미 있는 변화가 없었으며, SCC-Ag이 실험 군에서 유의한 증가가 있었다. 비장에 이식한 폐암 세포주의 성장이 신장 및 간장에 비해 더 증가된 결과를 보였다. 표면적, 두께와 용적 모두가 비장에서 유의한 증가를 나타내었다. 이식 성공률은 신장이 80%, 비장이 76.7%, 간장이 43.3%이었다. 병리학적 검사 결과 신장에는 비교적 둥글게 성장하며 크기는 제일 작았으며 성장 방향이 일정한 모양을 보이는 특징이 있으며 비장은 성장이 잘되어 제일 큰 종양을 형성하나 불규칙한 성장과 위성 종양(satellite tumor)이 빈번히 발견되었으며 현미경적으로는 혈관 신생과 함께 종양 혈전이 발견되었다. 간장은 간 내부로 침투 성장하여 이식 성공률이 가장 저조하며 현미경적 소견은 응고성 괴사와 점액양 섬유성 병변을 가지는 특징을 보였다. 걸론: 이식 성공률은 신장과 비장이 높으나, 성장이 일정하고 계측이 용이한 것은 신장이었다. 혈청 암 표지자는 SCC-Ag이 가장 조기에 반응하였으며, Cyfra 21-1은 조기에 검출되지 않았다. 이상에서 감수성 검사를 위한 종양이식 실험에 이용하기에 가장 적합한 장기는 신장을 이용한 신피막하 이식법으로 생각되며, 조기에 유용한 암표지자 검사는 SCC-Ag 정량법이라고 판단된다.

Purpose: To calculate the probability of one person's life-time death caused by a malignant tumor and provide theoretical basis for cancer prevention. Materials and Methods: The probability of one person's death caused by a tumor was calculated by a probability additive formula and based on an abridged life table. All data for age-specific mortality were from the third retrospective investigation of death cause in China. Results: The probability of one person's death caused by malignant tumor was 18.7% calculated by the probability additive formula. On the same way, the life-time death probability caused by lung cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer, colorectal and anal cancer were 4.47%, 3.62%, 3.25%, 2.25%, 1.11%, respectively. Conclusions: Malignant tumor is still the main cause of death in one's life time and the most common causes of cancer death were lung, gastric, liver, esophageal, colorectal and anal cancers. Targeted forms of cancer prevention and treatment strategies should be worked out to improve people's health and prolong life in China. The probability additive formula is a more scientific and objective method to calculate the probability of one person's life-time death than cumulative death probability.

The activities of phase II and antioxidant enzymes in the liver, lung, kidney, stomach, and colon of mice were examined following intragastric application of polysaccharides extracted from soybeans fermented with either Agrocybe Cylindracea (AC) or Phellinus ignarius (PI). The intragastric application of the extracts to mice for 14 days significantly increased the activities of quinone reductase (QP) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) in the liver and kidney, glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the liver, kidney, lung, and stomach, and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in the liver, lung, and kidney. In general, the elevation of the phase II and antioxidant enzymes activities was more pronounced in the liver and kidney as compared to the lung, stomach, and colon. Accordingly, these finding suggest that polysaccharides extracted from soybeans fermented with A. cylindracea or P. igniarius have a cancer chemopreventive potential in various target organs.

There is a wide disparity in the incidence, malignancy and mortality of different types of cancer between each sex. The sex-specificity of cancer seems to be dependent on the type of cancer. Cancer incidence and mortality have been demonstrated as sex-specific in a number of different types of cancer, such as liver cancer, whereas sex-specificity is not noticeable in certain other types of cancer, including colon and lung cancer. The present study aimed to elucidate the molecular basis for sex-biased gene expression in cancer. The mRNA expression of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition-associated genes was investigated, including E-cadherin (also termed CDH1), vimentin (VIM), discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) and zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) in female- and male-derived cancer cell lines by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR and the Broad-Novartis Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) database analysis. A negative correlation was observed between DDR1 and ZEB1 only in the female-derived cancer cell lines via RT-PCR analysis. A negative correlation between DDR1 index (defined by the logarithmic value of DDR1 divided by ZEB1, based on the mRNA data from the RT-PCR analysis) and an invasive phenotype was observed in cancer cell lines in a sex-specific manner. Analysis of the CCLE database demonstrated that DDR1 and ZEB1, which are already known to be sex-biased, were negatively correlated in female-derived liver cancer cell lines, but not in male-derived liver cancer cell lines. In contrast, cell lines of colon and lung cancer did not reveal any sex-dependent difference in the correlation between DDR1 and ZEB1. Kaplan-Meier survival curves using the transcriptomic datasets such as Gene Expression Omnibus, European Genome-phenome Archiva and The Cancer Genome Atlas databases suggested a sex-biased difference in the correlation between DDR1 expression pattern and overall survival in patients with liver cancer. The results of the present study indicate that sex factors may affect the regulation of gene expression, contributing to the sex-biased progression of the different types of cancer, particularly liver cancer. Overall, these findings suggest that analyses of the correlation between DDR1 and ZEB1 may prove useful when investigating sex-biased cancers.

Although the incidence rates of gastric cancer and liver cancer, the most common cancers in Korea, are tending decrease, lung cancer is on the increase every year as cause of cancer death as well as incidence rate in Korea. And cigarette smoke is believed to be responsible for 90% of lung cancer. Many investigators have reported an association between genetic polymorphism of cytochromes P-450 (CYPs) or glutathoine S-transferase (GSTs) and susceptibility to lung cancer.(omitted)

Objectives: We conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the relationship between low external doses of ionizing radiation exposure and the risk of cancer mortality among nuclear power plant workers. Methods: We searched MEDLINE using key words related to low dose and cancer risk. The selected articles were restricted to those written in English from 1990 to January 2009. We excluded those studies with no fit to the selection criteria and we included the cited references in published articles to minimize publication bias. Through this process, a total of 11 epidemiologic studies were finally included. A publication bias was tested for using Egger's test. The homogeneity test was performed before the integration of each of the standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) and the result proved that the studies were heterogeneous. Results: We found significant decreased deaths from all cancers (SMR = 0.75, 95% CI = 0.62 - 0.90), all cancers excluding leukemia, solid cancer, mouth and pharynx, esophagus, stomach, rectum, liver and gallbladder, pancreas, lung, prostate, lymphopoietic and hematopoitic cancer. The findings of this meta-analysis were similar with those of the 15 Country Collaborative Study conducted by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. A publication bias was found only for liver and gallbladder cancer (p = 0.015). Heterogeneity was observed for all cancers, all cancers excluding leukemia, solid cancer, esophagus, colon and lung cancer. Conclusions: Our findings of low mortality for stomach, rectum, liver and gallbladder cancers may explained by the health worker effect. Yet further studies are needed to clarify the low SMR of cancers, for which there is no useful screening tool, in nuclear power plant workers.

Objective: This study aimed to review herbal remedy-based RCTs on cancer patients in order to produce helpful information for clinical study of herbal medicine in the future. Methods: We collected all RCTs using herbal remedies on cancer patients from Pubmed and Cochrane databases until November 1st, 2009. Elementary information such as nation where performed, clinical question, design, randomization, double-blinding and allocation concealment were analyzed. Results: 153 RCTs were finally selected. 119 RCTs were conduced in China while only 2 were done in Korea. The most frequent targeted cancer was lung cancer as 29 RCTs. The main clinical questions included improvement of quality of life, elongation of survival rate and regression of tumor being 83, 62 and 55 respectively. 112 RCTs used herbal remedies with western therapy. Adequate methods for randomization and allocation concealment were found in 37% and 10% of trials respectively. Conclusions: We found that herbal remedies are used on cancer patients in aspects of both caring for the human body and tumor treatment itself. The study might provide us useful data for cancer-related clinical study using herbal remedies in the future.
