Thymidine phosphorylase (dThdPase) is an enzyme that converts 5′‐deoxy‐5‐fluorouridine (5′DFUR) to the toxic substance 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU); it is also known to be a platelet‐derived endothelial cell growth factor. In order to investigate the feasibility of suicide gene therapy against colorectal cancer by means of the combination of 5′DFUR and the converting enzyme dThdPase, we transfected the dThdPase gene into the human colon cancer cell line SW480 and analyzed the growth pattern as well as the sensitivity to 5‐FU or 5′DFUR of the dThdPase‐transfected cells. The 50% inhibition (IC50) values of 5‐FU against the SW480 parental cells, control vector‐transfected cells SW480/V1, and dThdPase‐transfected cells SW480/dThdPase were approximately 4.9, 6.3, and 2.9 μM, respectively. The IC50 of SW480/dThdPase was lower than that of SW480 or SW480/V1, although the differences were not statistically significant. The IC50 values of 5′DFUR for SW480, SW480/V1, and SW480/dThdPase were approximately 300, 330, and 3.2 αM, respectively. The sensitivity to 5′DFUR of SW480/dThdPase was increased by about 100‐fold compared with that of SW480 or SW480/V1. With only 10% transfection efficacy, a high enough sensitivity to 5′DFUR was obtained to suppress the cell growth, indicating that a strong bystander effect was induced by this system. The in vivo growth of the s.c. transplanted SW480/dThdPase tumor in nude mice was significantly suppressed by i.p. injection of 5′DFUR compared with that in control mice that received phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS) treatment. These results suggest that gene therapy using the combination of 5′DFUR and the dThdPase gene may be a useful approach for treatment of colon cancer.

Although colorectal cancer tissue is rich in pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase (PyNPase), there is no consensus as to whether cancer cells or stromal cells predominately express PyNPase. We micro-dissected OCT compound embedded frozen tissue sections into epithelial and stromal components and then analyzed the extracted samples separately. The PyNPase expression level was higher in stromal cells than in cancer cells and the difference increased with inflammation induced by the immunostimulator OK432. These results suggest that stromal cells are the major PyNPase source in colorectal cancer.

ZusammenfassungFragestellung:Diese Studie wurde zur Überprüfung der Zuverlässigkeit des endoanalen Ultraschalls bei der präoperativen Beurteilung von Analfisteln durchgeführt, insbesondere im Hinblick auf die Unterschiede zwischen akuten und chronischen Fisteln.Patienten und Methodik:Untersucht wurden 401 Patienten, die im Zeitraum von Januar bis Dezember 2005 wegen akuter oder chronischer anorektaler Entzündung kryptoglandulären Ursprungs behandelt worden waren. Bei allen Patienten wurden eine klinische Untersuchung sowie ein endoanaler Ultraschall durchgeführt. Die Übereinstimmungen zwischen den klinischen und endosonographischen Ergebnissen und den tatsächlichen chirurgischen Befunden wurden evaluiert, mit besonderer Berücksichtigung der Klassifikation des Primärtrakts und der Hufeisenausdehnung sowie der Lokalisation der inneren Öffnung. Ebenso wurden die Unterschiede bei der Genauigkeit der endosonographischen Untersuchung zwischen akuten und chronischen Fisteln evaluiert.Ergebnisse:Die Genauigkeit des endoanalen Ultraschalls war signifikant höher als die der klinischen Untersuchung hinsichtlich der Auffindung des Primärtrakts (88,8% vs. 85,0%; p = 0,0287) und der Hufeisenausdehnung (85,7% vs. 58,7%; p < 0,0001) und bei der Lokalisierung der inneren Öffnung (85,5% vs. 69,1%; p < 0,0001). Darüber hinaus war die Lokalisierung der inneren Öffnung durch die Endosonographie bei den chronischen Fisteln signifikant genauer als bei den akuten Fisteln (89,5% vs. 76,8%; p < 0,0001), obwohl sich die Genauigkeit bei der Auffindung des Primärtrakts und der Hufeisenausdehnung nicht signifikant unterschied.Schlussfolgerung:Die endoanale Sonographie ist verlässlich und nützlich bei der präoperativen Untersuchung von Analfisteln, insbesondere zur Auffindung einer Hufeisenausdehnung und zur Lokalisierung der inneren Öffnung. Die endosonographische Untersuchung liefert in den Phasen der chronischen Entzündung eine bessere Darstellung der inneren Öffnung als in den Phasen der Abszessbildung. Bei Patienten mit akuter anorektaler Entzündung könnte eine primäre Drainage mit anschließender Fisteloperation anstelle einer einstufigen Fisteloperation ratsam sein, um eine fehlerhafte Identifizierung der inneren Öffnung zu vermeiden.AbstractPurpose:This study was undertaken to evaluate the accuracy of endoanal ultrasonography for preoperative assessment of anal fistula, with special reference to the difference between acute and chronic fistula.Patients and Methods:The subjects comprised 401 patients treated for acute or chronic anorectal sepsis of cryptoglandular origin during the period January through December 2005. All patients underwent physical examination and endoanal ultrasonography. Agreement between the physical and endosonographic findings and the definitive surgical findings were evaluated with special reference to classification of the primary tract and horseshoe extension and localization of the internal opening. The difference in accuracy of endosonographic assessment between acute and chronic fistula was also evaluated.Results:The accuracy of endoanal ultrasonography was significantly higher than that of physical examination in detecting the primary tract (88.8% vs. 85.0%; p = 0.0287) and horseshoe extension (85.7% vs. 58.7%; p < 0.0001) and in localizing the internal opening (85.5% vs. 69.1%; p < 0.0001). Furthermore, localization of the internal opening by endosonography was significantly more accurate in chronic fistula than in acute fistula (89.5% vs. 76.8%; p < 0.0001), although the accuracy in detecting the primary tract and horseshoe extension was not significantly different.Conclusion:Endoanal ultrasonography is reliable and useful for preoperative assessment of anal fistula, particularly for detecting horseshoe extension and localizing the internal opening. Endosonographic assessment provides clearer depiction of the internal opening during periods of quiescence than during the period of abscess formation. For patients with acute anorectal sepsis, initial surgical drainage and subsequent fistula surgery, rather than one-stage fistula surgery, may be advisable to avoid misidentification of the internal opening.
