    • Gastrin is one of the main factors controlling enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell endocrine function and growth. Long-standing hypergastrinemia may give rise to ECL cell carcinoids in the gastric corpus in man and in experimental models. We have analysed the expression and function of CCK-B/gastrin receptors in normal ECL cells and in ECL cell tumours (gastric carcinoids) of the African rodent Mastomys natalensis. Hypergastrinemia induced by short-term (5 days) histamine2-receptor blockade (loxtidine) resulted in increased histidine decarboxylase (HDC) mRNA expression in the gastric oxyntic mucosa. This increase was significantly and dose-dependently reversed by selective CCK-B/gastrin receptor blockade (YM022). Long-term (12 months) hypergastrinemia, induced by histamine2-receptor blockade, gave rise to ECL cell carcinoids in the gastric oxyntic mucosa. CCK-B/gastrin receptor mRNA was only slightly elevated while HDC mRNA expression was eight-fold elevated in ECL cell carcinoids and was not influenced by CCK-B/gastrin receptor blockade. Thus CCK-B/gastrin receptor blockade of hypergastrinemic animals reduces the HDC mRNA expression in normal mucosa but not in ECL cell carcinoids. These results demonstrate that HDC mRNA expression in neoplastic ECL cells is not controlled by CCK-B/gastrin receptors.

    • Histamine is an important stimulator of gastric acid secretion. In experimental animals, inhibition of acid secretion by long term histamine2 receptor blockade causes hypergastrinemia, proliferation of enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells, and formation of histamine-producing gastric carcinoids. The aim of this study was to examine the role of gastrin in histamine synthesis and metabolism of the oxyntic mucosa of normal, hyperplastic, and carcinoid-bearing Mastomys natalensis. Administration of exogenous gastrin to normal animals increased histidine decarboxylase (HDC) messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in the oxyntic mucosa within 30 min, indicating that gastrin stimulates histamine synthesis by regulating HDC mRNA abundance. Endogenous hypergastrinemia, induced by short term histamine2 receptor blockade (loxtidine) for 3-29 days, did not induce tumors, but enhanced the expression of HDC mRNA (2- to 4-fold elevated) and histamine contents (2-fold elevated) in the oxyntic mucosa. Long term histamine2 receptor blockade (7-21 months) resulted in sustained hypergastrinemia and ECL tumor formation. Tumor-bearing animals had a 4-fold increase in HDC mRNA expression and histamine contents of the oxyntic mucosa. Urinary excretion of the histamine metabolite methyl-imidazole-acetic acid was 2-fold elevated. Tumor-bearing animals recovering from histamine2 receptor blockade were normogastrinemic and had normal levels of HDC mRNA and histamine in the oxyntic mucosa as well as normal excretion of methyl-imidazole-acetic acid. The results indicate that ECL cell carcinoids developing during hypergastrinemia are well differentiated tumors that respond to high gastrin levels with increased histamine synthesis and secretion.

  • Presence of IGF-I in human midgut carcinoid tumours--an autocrine regulator of carcinoid tumour growth?
  • 1992
  • Ingår i: International journal of cancer. Journal international du cancer. - 0020-7136. ; 51:2, s. 195-203
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The presence of IGF-I and IGF-I receptors in human midgut carcinoid tumours has been investigated. Using immunocytochemistry, IGF-I-positive tumour cells were demonstrated in 11/11 tumour cases studied. Labelling of consecutive sections with antibodies against IGF-I and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)/cyclin demonstrated a co-distribution of the 2 antigens in carcinoid tumours. Extracts of tumour tissues were subjected to radioimmunoassay and shown to contain significant amounts of IGF-I. Reverse-phase HPLC of tumour extracts demonstrated a major IGF-I-immunoreactive component eluting in the position of rhIGF-I, but also 2 other more hydrophobic forms. Conditioned serum-free media from primary cultures of carcinoid tumors contained detectable amounts of IGF-I, indicating a spontaneous release of IGF-I from tumour cells into the culture medium. Levels of IGF-I in media were reduced (19%) after incubation of cultures with a somatostatin analogue for 4 days. IGF-I receptors were observed on tumour cells in 4/10 tumours by immunocytochemistry. Tumour cells with immunoreactive IGF-I receptors could be stimulated to enhanced growth, measured as an increase in DNA contents, by exogenous administration of IGF-I every 3-4 days for 2 weeks. The results show that cultured human midgut carcinoid tumours secrete IGF-I and that some of the tumours also have IGF-I receptors. We therefore suggest that IGF-I may act as an autocrine or paracrine regulator of carcinoid tumour-cell growth.

  • Are enterochromaffinlike cell tumours reversible? An experimental study on gastric carcinoids induced in Mastomys by histamine2-receptor blockade.

    • A rapid induction of enterochromaffinlike (ECL) cell tumours has been shown in Praomys (Mastomys) natalensis subjected to histamine2-receptor blockade. In the present study the reversibility of ECL cell proliferation induced by acid inhibition was investigated. Short-term treatment (8 weeks) with the histamine2-receptor antagonist loxtidine caused a moderate hypergastrinemia, accompanied by a minor increase in histamine contents and a 2-fold increased volume density of the endocrine cells in gastric oxyntic mucosa. Eight weeks after withdrawal of treatment the volume density of endocrine cells was normalised as were the tissue levels of histamine, indicating a total reversibility of ECL cell hyperplasia. Long-term treatment (24 weeks) caused severe changes in the endocrine cell population of the oxyntic mucosa with neoplasia (5/21), dysplasia (11/21) and nodular hyperplasia (5/21). The endocrine cell density increased twofold and tissue histamine levels fourfold. 24 weeks after cessation of treatment, the endocrine cell density had decreased to 136% of controls, while histamine concentrations were normalised. The frequency of invasive carcinoids after recovery (4/23) differed only slightly from that seen after treatment for 24 weeks (5/21). Dysplastic lesions were only seen in 1/23 and hyperplastic lesions were of less severe type after recovery. The results demonstrate that ECL cell hyperplasia and dysplasia, induced by acid inhibition, are reversible after cessation of treatment. However, ECL cell tumours did not disappear, within the given observation period. One may therefore speculate that ECL cell proliferation is no longer reversible once the neoplastic (transformed) phenotype has developed.

  • The effect of a somatostatin analogue on the release of hormones from human midgut carcinoid tumour cells.
  • 1991
  • Ingår i: British journal of cancer. - 0007-0920. ; 64:1, s. 23-8
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The use of a somatostatin analogue (SMS 201-995) has greatly facilitated the treatment of patients with the midgut carcinoid syndrome. Clinical studies have shown that SMS reduces the peripheral levels of tumour-produced serotonin (5-HT) and tachykinins, e.g. neuropeptide K (NPK), basally and after pentagastrin provocation. Some studies have indicated an inhibitory effect of SMS on tumour cell growth as well. In the present study we have investigated the effects of SMS on four different human midgut carcinoid tumours maintained in long term culture. Media levels of 5-HT and NPK-LI in tumour cell cultures decreased rapidly during incubation with SMS (10(-8)-10(-10) M) in all four tumours studied without evidence for tachyphylaxis (up to 6 weeks observation period). SMS treatment (10(-8) M) during 4 days reduced the media concentrations of 5-HT by 56%, while the intracellular contents of 5-HT were decreased by 27% indicating dual inhibitory effects on synthesis and secretion of 5-HT from tumour cells. The DNA contents of cultures were not affected by SMS (10(-8) M or 10(-10) M) treatment for 4 or 14 days. When tumour cell cultures were challenged with isoprenaline (IP) (10(-6) M) no reduction of the IP induced release of 5-HT could be detected after pretreatment of tumour cell cultures with SMS (10(-8) M) for 1 h, 4 h or 4 days. These studies provide evidence for a direct action of the somatostatin analogue on midgut carcinoid tumour cells, reducing both synthesis and secretion of hormones from tumour cells. This effect appears not to be related to inhibition of tumour cell growth. The inhibition of 5-HT secretion from tumour cells by SMS seems to operate via a second messenger system different from the one mediating the beta-adrenoceptor stimulated release of 5-HT.

  • The effect of vagotomy on enterochromaffin-like cells in Mastomys natalensis.
  • 1996
  • Ingår i: Journal of the autonomic nervous system. - 0165-1838. ; 59:3, s. 133-9

    • The effect of vagotomy on the development of ECL cell tumours was analyzed during drug-induced hypergastrinemia in Mastomys natalensis, a rodent prone to develop ECL cell tumours. Untreated animals were compared with animals receiving the histamine2-receptor blocker loxtidine (LOX) and with animals subjected to unilateral subdiaphragmatic vagotomy prior to loxtidine treatment (VAG+LOX). Loxtidine (2g/l) was administered in drinking water for 48 weeks to allow multiple ECL cell carcinoids to develop. Plasma gastrin levels were increased in LOX animals (94 +/- 31 pmol/l) and in VAG+LOX animals (181 +/- 59 pmol/l) compared to controls (45 +/- 4 pmol/l). Corpus weight and oxyntic mucosal thickness was almost doubled in all loxtidine-treated animals and the density of mucosal endocrine cells was increased by 65% in the LOX group and by 135% in VAG+LOX animals. No significant differences in mucosal thickness and endocrine cell density were seen when denervated and intact parts of the stomach were compared. In the VAG+LOX animals endocrine cell neoplasia was seen in 60% and dysplasia in 40% of animals compared to 40% neoplasia, 45% dysplasia and 15% hyperplasia in LOX animals. The frequency of neoplastic and dysplastic lesions did not differ between denervated and intact parts of the stomach. Untreated animals showed no neoplastic or dysplastic lesions. It is concluded that unilateral vagotomy has no protective effect on the development of ECL-cell tumours in Mastomys during hypergastrinemia, as opposed to previous studies in the rat.
