Abstract:
:The expression of the estrogen-regulated breast-cancer-associated pS2 gene was examined in 75 stomach resections taken from 45 patients. The 600-base pS2 mRNA was found in all of the 47 non-neoplastic samples at varying levels: in the histologically normal group we observed a Poisson-type distribution, whereas 79% of the tissues exhibiting dysplastic features expressed high levels of transcript. Tumour samples expressed relatively lower pS2 mRNA, with only 18% having high levels and 43% with no detectable expression. These differences were not correlated to tumour grading, stage or site. No amplification or rearrangement of the pS2 gene was found. Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin-fixed paraffin sections, using a polyclonal antibody against pS2 protein, showed specific staining of both cytoplasm and membrane of epithelial cells in the neck region of antral and body glands as well as in luminal secretions. Immunoreactivity was observed in the sub-nuclear region of foveolar cells, with specialized gland and goblet cells in atrophic gastritis being negative. Heterogeneous but strong focal cytoplasmic staining was seen in tumour cells as well as in dysplastic epithelium. Two gastric cell lines, KATO III and MKN-45, derived from poorly differentiated adenocarcinomas also expressed pS2, whereas 3 other lines from well differentiated parental tumours did not. Genomic analysis revealed a BamHI polymorphism in Kato III cells and in the non-expressing MKN-28 cells. Immunostaining to pS2 protein was also demonstrated in the cytoplasm of KATO III cells, but neither these nor any of 30 tissues examined showed any positivity with a monoclonal antibody (MAb) to estrogen receptor. Our results suggest that pS2 is normally expressed in human stomach, possibly in association with secretory activity, and becomes down-regulated during malignancy.
