    Abstract:
    hard to reach the tumor positions and to improve their immunosuppressive microenvironment. When the CAR-T cells eliminate tumor cells, at the same time they also kill normal cells with the same target points. Efficacy of the CAR-T cells therapy for hematologic tumors and solid tumors except B cell tumors still needs to be improved. This paper focuses on that how the CAR-T cells could accurately identify tumor cells via optimization of the CAR-T cell structures and that effectiveness of the CAR-T cell therapy for malignant tumors could be enhanced through overcoming immunosuppressive microenvironment of tumors. At the same time, the CAR-T cells could be better controlled and safety of the CAR-T cells higher.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To investigate the mechanism of coding gene of cell cyclin D1(CCND1) participating in miR-340-induced inhibition of chemotherapy resistance of colorectal cancer cells to 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu). Methods: Colorectal cancer HCT115 and SW480 cell lines were transfected with si-CCND1and miR340-mimic respectively by transient transfection technology. The sensitivity of cancer cells to 5-Fu after transfection was observed with MTT. The effect of CCND1 on miR-340 mediated suppression of chemotherapy resistance of cancer cells to 5-Fu was validated by double luciferase test. Results: After transient transfection with siCCND1 or over-expression of miR-340, the IC50 values of HCT116 and SW480 cell lines were significantly lower than that of control group \[CCND1 silencing: 10, 10 vs 20 μmol/L; miR-340 over-expressing: 20, 20 vs 40 μmol/L; all P<0.05). After co-transfection with CCND1 3′UTR wild plasmid and miR-340 inhibitor, the luciferase reporter activity in HCT 116 and SW480 cells were significantly higher than that of empty plasmid transfection group or mimic transfection group (P<0.01). Conclusion: CCND1, as an unfavorable factor, enhances the chemo-resistance of colorectal cancer cells to 5-FU by inhibiting the expression of miR-340.

    [Abstract](1446) [HTML](0) [PDF 469.84 K](1120)
    Abstract:
    Objective:To evaluate the in vitro and in vivo efficacy of tumor-targeted oncolytic vaccinia virus (VV) vectors, VVΔTKΔN1L-RFP and VVΔTKΔN1L-mIL-21, on murine breast cancer cell lines (JC, TUBO and 4T1).Methods: The cytotoxicity of the viruses (VVΔTKΔN1L-RFP and VVΔTKΔN1L-mIL-21) at different mass concentrations on JC, TUBO and 4T1 cells was compared by MTT assay. The replication ability of the two viruses in the three cell lines was tested by TCID50. ELISA assay was performed to detect mIL-21 expression in the supernatants of the culture medium of three cell lines after virus infection. Orthotopic models of triple negative breast cancer (4T1) and Her-2 amplified breast cancer (TUBO) in the BALB/c mice were established to investigate the antitumor efficacy of the two VVs. Results:The two viruses were all able to replicate in breast cancer JC, TUBO and 4T1 cell lines, and low dose of VV caused significant cytotoxicity against breast cancer cell lines. High level of mIL-21 protein was detected in the cell culture supernatants after VVΔTKΔN1L-mIL-21 infection. In the orthotopic 4T1 breast cancer model, the viruses did not show significant anti-tumor effect (P>0.05); however, in the orthotopic TUBO breast cancer model, tumor growth was significantly inhibited by both viruses (P<0.05,P<0.01), and the survival time(P<0.01) of tumor bearing mouse was prolonged in both VVΔTKΔN1L-RFP and VVΔTKΔN1L-mIL-21 treatment group. Conclusion: Both VVΔTKΔN1L-RFP and VVΔTKΔN1L-mIL-21viruses could specifically replicate and showed cell killing effect on breast cancer cells. The two viruses have different in vivo therapeutic effects on Her-2 gene amplified breast cancer and triple negative breast cancer.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To investigate effect of crosslinked CD44 molecule on expression of Fas in the human mast cell leukemia HMC-1 cell line and its mediated-apoptosis of the cell. Methods: Using flow cytometry assay, expressions of the CD44 and Fas on surface of the HMC-1 cell were detected, and changes of Fas expression on the cell surface after treatment with native hyaluronan (HA) and crosslinking the CD44 molecule with anti-CD44 antibody were observed, and then effects of PKC inhibitor (H-7), PI3K inhibitor (wortmannin), inhibitors of MAPK signaling pathway, inhibitor of protein synthesis (CHX) and inhibitor of actin polymerization (cytochalasin B, CB) on expression of Fas on the surface of the cells with the crosslinked CD44 were tested. Effect of the crosslinked CD44 on expression of Fas mRNA was detected by Northern hybridization assay. With Annexin V/PI double staining, effect of the crosslinked CD44, HA or F-HA on Fas-mediated cell apoptosis was examined. Results: In the HMC-1 cell, expression of the CD44 was high and expression of Fas was low. The crosslinked CD44 molecule significantly enhanced expression of Fas on the cell surface (P<0.05), but transcription level of Fas mRNA did not obviously changed. Inhibitor of actin polymerization (CB) could inhibit up-regulation of Fas expression by the CD44 (P<0.05). Inhibitors of cell signaling pathway and protein synthesis which were detected couldn’t inhibit up-regulation of Fas expression (P<0.05). All of F-HA and the crosslinked CD44 could promote Fas-mediated cell apoptosis. Conclusion: The crossliking of CD44 up-regulates Fas expression in the HMC-1 cell, and enhances Fas-mediated cell apoptosis. The CD44 molecule could become a novel target for treatment of the mast cell leukemia.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To explore the influence of CHD1L gene (chromodomain helicase/ATPase DNA binding protein 1-like gene) on the invasion and migration ability of prostate cancer cells and the potential mechanisms. Methods: Real-time fluorescent quantitative-PCR assay was carried out to detect mRNA expression of CHD1L gene in prostate cancer cell lines LNCAP, PC3 and DU 145 as well as normal prostate epithelial cell line RWPE-1. siRNA transfection was used to deplete CHD1L expression in PC3 cells. Then Transwell invasion assay and wound healing test were employed to detect the effect of CHD1Lsilencing on the invasion and migration ability of PC3 cells. Protein expressions of MMP-9, N-cadherin and E-cadherin were examined by Western blotting assay. Results: Compared to normal prostate epithelial cells, three prostate cancer cell lines all showed significantly higher expression of CHD1L mRNA (P<0.01), and PC3 cells demonstrated the highest CHD1LmRNA expression. Invasion assay showed that the trans-membrane cell number in CHD1L silencing group was significantly lower than that in negative and blank control groups (49.67±6.67 vs 113.67±5.69 and 112.00±12.49, P<0.05). Wound healing test also exhibited lower healing degree in CHD1L silencing group than that in negative and blank control groups at 48 h (\[21.27±3.27\]% vs \[48.47±5.72\]% and \[49.93±3.35\]%, respectively, P<0.05). Furthermore, protein expressions of MMP-9 and N-cadherin decreased while E-cadherin increased in CHD1L gene depletion cells. Conclusions: CHD1L silencing could dampen the invasion and migration ability of prostate cancer PC3 cell line, and this might be accomplished by regulating MMP-9 and EMT related proteins.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To study the effect of enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2) and histone H3 methylated Lys27 (H3K27me3) on the migration and invasion ability of esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) cells by transfection of vectors expressing/knock down EZH2. Methods: Quantificational real-time PCR(qRT-PCR) and Western blotting were performed to evaluate the expression levels of EZH2in esophageal carcinoma cell lines (KYSE30, KYSE170, TE1, Eca109), as well as the effect of over-expression or knockdown of EZH2 on H3K27me3 expression in ESCC cell lines. Effect of EZH2 over-expression or knockdown on migration and invasion abilities of ESCC cells were examined by wound healing assay and Transwell invasion test, respectively. The expression level of MMPs in ESCC cells after over-expression or knockdown of EZH2 were detected by qRT-PCR.Results: The expressions of EZH2 and H3K27me3 in Eca109 and TE1 cells were significantly higher than those in KYSE30 and KYSE170 cells (P<0.05). Over-expression of EZH2 promoted the expression of H3K27me3 in KYSE30 and KYSE170 cell lines (P<0.05). Knockdown of EZH2inhibited the expression of H3K27me3 in Eca109 and TE1 cell lines (P<0.05). The trans-membrane number of KYSE30 and KYSE170 cells was significantly increased (\[281.33±4.10\] vs \[132.00±4.00\], P<0.05; \[241.67±4.04\] vs \[105.33±3.51\], P<0.05), and the migration distance of KYSE30 and KYSE170 cells was significantly increased (\[63.6±1.2\] vs \[23.0±2.3\] μm, P<0.05; \[62.5±2.5\] vs \[21.2±1.0\] μm, P<0.05) after over-expression of EZH2. Knockdown of EZH2significantly decreased the trans-membrane number of Eca109 and TE1 cells (all P<0.05), and the migration distance was also decreased after transfection with shEZH2 (all P<0.05). Conclusion: EZH2 can enhance trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 (H3K27) of the target gene promoters, and promote the migration and invasion abilities of esophageal carcinoma cell lines.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To explore the effect of human placenta extracts (HPE) on the proliferation and migration of human colon cancer cell lines (Caco-2 and SW480). Methods: Human colon cancer Caco-2 and SW480 cell lines were treated with different concentrations of HPE. Cell proliferation was determined by CCK-8, Ki-67 and CFSE dilution. The effect of HPE on cell apoptosis and cell cycle were detected by Annexin-V/PI and DAPI staining. The expressions of apoptosis related gene BAX, CDK2and CyclinA2 were determined by Real-time PCR. The migration efficiency of cell was measured by wound-healing assay. Human colon cancer cells were subcutaneously injected into the nude mice to establish xenograft model, and the mice were randomly divided into different groups and given different treatments of HPE and/or 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu). The tumor volume and body weight were recorded. Results: The cell proliferation ability of both Caco-2 and SW480 cells cultured with HPE was lower than that of control group (0.82± 0.01 vs 0.96±0.02, P<001; 0.90±0.03 vs 0.96±0.02, P<0.05); and the apoptotic rates in HPE treatment group were significantly higher than control group (\[20.47±1.32\]% vs \[11.01±3.82\]%, P<0.01; \[20.70±5.19\]% vs \[8.00±2.69\]%, P<005) , accompanied with cytoplasmic reduction, nuclear pyknosis and increased BAX gene expression (3.23±1.90 vs 1.00±0.00; 2.25±0.55 vs 1.00±0.00, all P<0.05). Furthermore, S-phase arrest with an apoptosis peak was observed in HPE treatment group, and decreased mRNA expressions of CDK2 and CyclinA2 (all P<0.05) in Caco-2 cells were also observed. Moreover, an obvious lower wound-healing rate was identified in cells treated with HPE (\[0.17±029\] vs \[1.50±0.50\] mm, P<0.05). The tumor volume of mice in HPE-treated group was smaller than that of control group, and higher survival rate was observed than that of 5-Fu alone group. Conclusion: This study indicated that HPE could inhibit the proliferation and migration ability of human colon cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo, partly through enhancing cell apoptosis and S-phase arrest, which may contribute to the inhibition on growth of certain tumor cells.

Methods: Fifty-two bladder cancer tissues and 32 precancerous tissues resected from June 2014 to September 2015 at the Department of Urology of the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical University, as well as human bladder cancer 5637 cell line were collected for this study. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of Cx43 protein in bladder cancer tissues. Cx43 liposome plasmid (Transfection group), empty liposome plasmid (Transfection control group), siRNA (siRNA group) and siRNA control (siRNA control gorup) were transfected into bladder cancer 5637 cells. The efficiency of over-expression and knockdown was evaluated by Western blotting; the changes in invasion of bladder cancer cells were evaluated by Transwell assay. The changes in protein expressions of MMP-2, MMP-9, P38 and P-P38 were detected by Western blotting. Results: The expression of Cx43 protein in bladder cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in paracancerous tissues (\[5.21±0.33\] vs \[2.84±0.19\], P<0.01). Transfection of Cx43 liposome or siRNA successfully up-/down-regulated the expression of Cx43 in 5637 cells. Compared with control group, the migration ability of 5637 cells in Cx43 over-expression group was increased significantly (\[1.36±0.04\] vs \[0.70±0.15\],P<0.01), while that of siRNA group was decreased significantly (\[0.20±0.08\] vs \[0.59±0.13\], P<0.05). The protein expressions of MMP-2, MMP-9, P-P38 and P38 in Cx43 liposome transfection group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.01 or P<0.05), while the expressions in siRNA group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01). Conclusion: Cx43 could enhance invasion ability of bladder cancer cells, and the mechanism might be related with the activation of P38/MAPK signaling pathway.

    Abstract:
    Objective:To investigate the relationship between miR-200c expression and the clinical pathologic characteristics and disease free survival (DFS) of gastric cancer patients. Methods: Sixty-four gastric cancer samples resected from May 2012 to January 2016 at General Surgery Department of the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University were collected in this study, and the relative clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Real-time fluorescence quantification PCR was adopted to detect the expression of miR-200c in the gastric cancer tissues and corresponding para-cancerous tissues. The correlation between miR-200c expression and clinicopathological features as well as DFS was retrospectively analyzed. Results: miR-200c was dramatically decreased in gastric cancer tissues when compared to the para-cancerous tissues (329 vs 5.91, P<0.01). miR-200c expression was negatively correlated with TNM stage, tumor infiltration depth (T), metastasis(M), venous tumor thrombus (; all P<0.01). The median DFS in high miR-200c expression group was significantly longer than that of low expression group (22.0 vs 13.5 months, P<0.01), indicating a positive correlation between miR-200c expression and DFS (r=0.54, P<0.01). Conclusion:miR-200c dramatically decreased in gastric cancer tissues. Its expression level was negatively correlated with TNM stage, tumor infiltration depth and venous tumor thrombus, but positively correlated with DFS. These data suggest it may play a protective role in progress and prognosis of gastric cancer.

    Abstract:
    磷脂酰肌醇3-激酶(phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PI3K)/蛋白激酶 B(protein kinase B, Akt)/哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶蛋白(mammalian target of rapamycin, mTOR)信号通路是人体中的重要信号通路,通过逐级磷酸化下游蛋白发挥作用。非小细胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer,NSCLC)中存在该信号通路的异常活化。活化的信号通路可以改变NSCLC细胞的增殖、凋亡、侵袭和迁移等生物学特性从而影响其对治疗药物的反应及预后。针对该通路抑制剂的研究很多,部分抑制剂已进入临床研究阶段。PI3K抑制剂包括广谱PI3K抑制剂、亚型特异性的PI3K抑制剂和PI3K/mTOR双重抑制剂。PI3K抑制剂单药有效率较低,但与化疗药物或其他靶向药物联用取得了不错的临床效果,目前往往将PIK3CA突变以及抑癌基因PTEN的缺失作为预测疗效的指标,但准确性欠佳,进一步筛选疗效预测指标是目前面临的重要问题。

    Abstract:
    TNF家族B细胞活化因子(B cell activating factor of the TNF family,BAFF)和增殖诱导配体(a proliferation inducing ligand,APRIL)具有较高的同源性。BAFF可分别与B细胞活化因子受体(BAFF-R)、B细胞成熟抗原(B cell maturation antigen,BCMA)和穿膜蛋白活化物(transmembrane activator and cyclophilin ligand interactor,TACI)3个受体结合,而APRIL则与受体BCMA、TACI结合发挥作用。近年来BAFF/APRIL及其受体的研究逐渐从自身免疫性疾病和实体肿瘤转移到了血液系统疾病中。本文对BAFF/APRIL及其受体在血液肿瘤性疾病,诸如慢性淋巴细胞白血病、急性淋巴细胞白血病、多发性骨髓瘤和淋巴瘤中的研究进展,包括BAFF/APRIL及其受体的功能、作用机制以及在治疗和预后中所起的作用等作一综述。
