Ki-67 antibody labeling index in colorectal carcinoma.

Ki-67 labeling index of 58 colorectal carcinomas and 10 normal colonic mucosa samples was determined by the use of an immunohistochemical staining technique. The Ki-67 labeling index in colorectal carcinomas ranged from 15.7 to 63.6% (mean +/- SD of 38.5 +/- 10.5) and was significantly higher than the index for normal colon mucosa (mean +/- SD of 14.1 +/- 2.8). The mean Ki-67 labeling index was significantly higher in Dukes' B and Dukes' C tumors than in Dukes' A tumors, but the index did not correlate with the size of the tumor. There was no correlation between the Ki-67 labeling index of the tumor and lymph node involvement. The present study disclosed that the Ki-67 labeling index correlated with local invasion of colorectal carcinoma, but not with metastasis of the tumor.

Construction of novel shuttle vectors and a cosmid vector for the glutamic acid-producing bacteria Brevibacterium lactofermentum and Corynebacterium glutamicum.

Novel cloning vectors for glutamic acid-producing bacteria have been constructed. Two cryptic plasmids, pAM330 from Brevibacterium lactofermentum and pHM1519 from Corynebacterium glutamicum, were used as precursors, and recombined with pBR325 or pUB110. Resultant composite plasmids were able to propagate and to express the CmR or KmR phenotype in B. lactofermentum and C. glutamicum. A smaller, high-copy-number plasmid, pAJ43, was also isolated following deletion of a part of the pAM330-pBR325 composite plasmid. Furthermore, a cosmid vector, which can be packaged and transduced through phage infection, has been developed using a cohesive-end fragment of the f1A phage and plasmid pAJ43. These plasmids are suitable for use as cloning vectors in the glutamic acid-producing bacteria.

Determination of the complete nucleotide sequence of the Brevibacterium lactofermentum plasmid pAM330 and the analysis of its genetic information.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the plasmid pAM330 derived from Brevibacterium lactofermentum ATCC 13869 was determined using the dideoxy chain termination method. Analysis of the sequence allowed us to observe seven open reading frames, one of which showed the presence of the promoter and the Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequences upstream from the initiation codon.
