    Abstract:
    [Abstract] T cell receptor-engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapy is one of the hotspots in the field of cancer immunotherapy. Considerable achievements have been made since the first successful clinical trial in 2006. However, problems still remain in cytotoxicity, safety and persistence of TCR-T therapy despite the rapid development. Improving the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and enhancingchemotaxis,infiltration as well as activation of TCR-T cell will be the key to improve its anti-tumor effect. Neoantigens, which are highly tumor-specific and immunogenic,are the basis for safe and effective treatment and individualized cancer immunotherapy. Besides,infusion of less differentiated T cell subsets is also a reliable way to generate a long-lasting immune response. Here, combing with current research progress, we offer our perspectives on the current situation and challenges of TCR-T from the three aspects above.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the effect and mechanism of bridging intergrator-1 (BIN1) on expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. Methods: Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRTPCR) and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of BIN1 and PD-L1 in A549 cells and normal human embryo lung fibroblast 2BS cells, respectively. Eukaryotic expression plasmid CMV-MCS-GFP-SV40-Neomycin-BIN1 containing human full length BIN1 gene sequence was transfected into A549 cells via cationic liposomes by using gene transfection technology (as BIN1+group); c-MYC-siRNA was used to knockdown the expression of c-MYC in A549 cells through RNA interference technique (as c-MYC-siRNA group). The transfection efficiencies were verified by qRT-PCR and Western blotting, the effects of BIN1 over-expression and c-MYC knock-down on the expression of c-MYC and PD-L1 in A549 cells were detected as well. Results: Comparing with 2BS cells, the expression of BIN1 was down-regulated in A549 cells at both mRNA and protein levels, while the expression of PD-L1 was up-regulated (all P<0.05). The expression of BIN1 was increased at both mRNA and protein level in BIN1+ group, while the expression of PD-L1 was decreased significantly after B1N1 transfection (all P<0.05). After transfection of c-MYC-siRNA into A549 cells, the expression of c-MYC and PD-L1 in c-MYC-siRNA group was down-regulated significantly (all P<0.01). Conclusion: Over-expression of BIN1 could reduce the expression of PD-L1 by inactivating the c-MYC pathway, thereby inhibiting the immune escape of A549 cells.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the effect of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) from mice bearing breast cancer on the function of normal B cells. Methods: A BABL/c mouse 4T1 breast cancer model was established. The spleen MDSCs of tumor-bearing mouse and normal mouse spleen B cells were sorted by magnetic beads, and the sorted MDSCs and B cells were co-incubated. Flow cytometry was used to test the effect of MDSCs on the expressions of B cell surface molecules, including PD-1, PD-L1, CTLA-4, CCR6,CD62L and MHCⅡ; ELISA assay was used to detect the secretion of IgA, IgM and IgG by B cells; BrdU kit was used to detect B cell proliferation; and Annexin V/PI staining was used to detect B cell apoptosis. B cells in the co-culture system were again sorted by magnetic beads and were then co-cultured with T cells; BrdU kit was used to detect T cell proliferation, and Annexin V/PI was used to detect T cell apoptosis. Results: Compared with B cell control group, the expression of PD-L1 on B cells in B+MDSC group was increased (P<0.01), while the expressions of PD-1, CTLA-4, CCR6, CD62L and MHC Ⅱ were all decreased (all P<0.01); The IgA, IgM and IgG secreted by B cells were significantly increased (all P<0.01); the proliferation of B cells was increased (P<0.01) and the apoptosis was decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the T cell control group, the proliferation of T cells in the B+MDSC (1:5) +T group was significantly reduced (P<0.01); however, there was no significant difference in T cell apoptosis. Conclusion: MDSCs from breast cancer bearing mice promotes B cell proliferation and inhibits B cell apoptosis, and the MDSC-induced B cells can inhibit T cell proliferation.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the effect of miR-124 on the invasion and migration of esophageal cancer KYSE170 cells by regulating autophagy. Methods: miR-124 mimic was transfected into esophageal cancer KYSE170 cells. Transwell assay was used to detect the change of invasion and migration ability of cells. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the targeted regulation of BECN1 (Beclin1) by miR-124, and Western blotting was used to analyze the expressions of BECN1, P62 and LC3 protein. siRNA targeting BECN1 was transfeted into KYSE170 cells, and then the cell invasion and migration ability was calculated by Transwell assay. The expressions of BECN1, P62 and LC3 protein were detected by Western blotting. miR-124 mimic and BECN1 over-expression plasmid were co-transfected into KYSE170 cells, and then Transwell assay was used to detect the changes of cell invasion and migration ability, and Western blotting to examine the expression levels of autophagy-related gene. Results: The invasion and migration ability of KYSE170 cells were significantly inhibited after transfection with miR-124 mimic (All P<0.05). The expression of autophagyrelated protein P62 was increased, and the expression of BECN1 and LC3 was significantly decreased (All P<0.01); in addition, the activity of luciferase reporter gene was also significantly reduced (P<0.01). Silencing BECN1 expression inhibited the invasion and migration of esophageal cancer KYSE170 cells (P<0.01). However, after co-transfection with BECN1 over-expression plasmids, the effects of miR-124 mimic on the autophagy, invasion and migration of esophageal carcinoma KYSE170 cells were significantly weakened (P<0.01), it was also accompanied with lower P62 expression, and higher LC3 expression (P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-124 mimic can inhibit the invasion and migration of esophageal carcinoma cells. The mechanism may be related to the autophagy-related gene BECN1 expression.

    [Abstract](881) [HTML](0) [PDF 1.04 M](1797)
    Abstract:
    Objective: To observe the effects of miR-204 on the proliferation and invasion of retinoblastoma (RB) cells and to explore the potential regulatory mechanism. Methods: The expression level of miR-204 in RB cell lines (Y79, SO-RB50, and HXO-Rb44) as well as in normal human retinal pigment epithelial cell line hTERT RPE-1 was detected using qRT-PCR. The Y79 cells were divided into two groups (negative control group and miR-204 group) by respectively transfecting Y79 cells with NC-mimics and miR-204 mimics using liposome transfection method. The effects of miR-204 on Y79 cell proliferation was detected with CCK-8 assay; while the effect of miR-204 on migration and invasion of Y79 cells were determined by cell scratch assay and Transwell assay, respectively. Besides,the potential target gene of miR-204 was predicted by bioinformatics; and the influence of miR-204 on the expression of high mobility group AT-hook 2 gene (HMGA2) at both mRNA and protein levels was detected using qRT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively.Results: miR-204 expression in RB cell lines Y79, SO-RB50 and HXO-Rb44 was remarkably lower than that in normal human retinal pigment epithelial cell line hTERT RPE-1 (P<0.01). miR-204 expression in Y79 cells was markedly up-regulated after transfection with miR-204 mimics (P<0.01) along with significantly reduced cell proliferation, migration and invasion capacities (all P<0.01), and mRNA and protein expressions of HMGA2 were also outstandingly reduced (P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-204 is lowly expressed in RB cell lines; in addition, miR-204 over-expression can suppress RB cell proliferation, migration and invasion, the mechanism of which might be related to down-regulation of the expression of HMGA2.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the expression of histone methyltransferase G9a in gastric cancer tissues and its correlation to prognosis, and to observe the effect of G9a inhibitor on the proliferation and apoptosis of gastric cancer cells. Methods: The expression level of G9a in gastric cancer tissues and its correlation to prognosis were analyzed by using the Kaplan-Meier Plotter and Oncomine database. Human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 and MKN-45 were selected as study subject. The expression level of G9a protein was detected by Western blotting. The morphological change of gastric cancer cells after the treatment of G9a inhibitor BIX01294 was observed. CCK-8 proliferation experiment and plate colony formation assay were used to examine the proliferation ability and clone formation rate of gastric cancer cells. The changes of cell apoptosis were detected by Annexin-V staining. Results: G9a was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues (P<0.01), and the high expression of G9a was positively correlated with poor prognosis of gastric can-cer patients (P<0.01). After the treatment of BIX01294, the morphology of gastric cancer cells was changed, the volume of gastric cancer cells reduced, the intercellular connections disappeared, and even the apoptotic manifestations appeared, such as the shrinking,, becoming round and cast-off etc. BIX01294 could significantly inhibit the proliferation and colony formation but promote the apoptosis of gastric cancer cells (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Histone methyltransferase G9a was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues, and its high expression level was positively correlated with poor prognosis. The proliferation of gastric cancer cells was obviously inhibited while the apoptosis was significantly promoted after inhibiting G9a expression.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To evaluate the expression of melanoma antigen A family(MAGE-As)in the peripheral blood of patients with esophageal carcinoma (EC), and to analyze its correlations to the clinicopathological features and the prognosis of EC patients. Methods:mRNA expression of MAGE-As in peripheral blood from 153 EC patients and 30 healthy donors was detected using multiplex semi-nested PCR. In addition, restriction endonuclease treatment was used to determine the expression of MAGE-As family members,including MAGE-A1, A2, A3, A4 and A6. Results: The positive expression of MAGE -As was observed in 30 of 153 EC patients (19.61%) in peripheral blood. The positive expression rate of MAGE-A1, A2, A3, A4, A6 was 10.46% (16/153), 16.34%(25/153), 9.8% (15/153), 11.11% (17/153) and 18.30%(28/153), respectively. Additionally, the expression of MAGE-As was positively associated with clinical stage, lymphatic metastasis and distant metastasis (all P<0.05). The positive expressions of MAGE-As and its sub-type genes were all associated with low 5-year overall survival of ES patients (all P<0.05). Expression of MAGE-As, tumor volume, lymphatic metastasis and distant metastasis can be used as independent prognostic factors for the survival of EC patients (all P<0.01). Conclusion:The expression of MAGE-As in peripheral blood of EC patients was associated with the prognosis of EC, and may be used as an important indicator for the prognosis of esophageal carcinoma.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To evaluate the effect of immune cells induced and differentiated by umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells (UCMCs) on the immune function of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Methods: Ninety patients with SCLC, who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from January 2012 to December 2015, were randomly divided into control group (45 patients, EP regimen), study group (45 patients, EP regimen+UCMC-induced and differentiated immune cells). The study group of patients received immune cell treatment 3-5 d after chemotherapy ([1-3]×1010cells/treatment), 30 d for a cycle. The changes in T cell subsets, IFN- γ , IL-2, IL-10 and TGF- β1 in peripheral blood of patients were observed by flow cytometry at pre-treatment and 12 weeks post-treatment. Life quality and adverse events of patients were evaluated. Results: The study group, 15 cases achieved CR, 25 cases of PR and 5 cases of SD. The percent of T cell subsets in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01), and the time of return to normal level was obviously shorter (P<0.05). The serum level of inflammatory cytokine IFN- γ increased or exceeded the normal range in 80.9% patients, and IL-10 and TGF- β1 levels were significantly decreased as compared with pretreatment (P<0.05). The quality of life was obviously better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Immune cells induced and differentiated by UCMCs can promote the recovery of immune function of patients with SCLC.

    Abstract:
    Objective: To investigate the correlations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the D-loop of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the disease risk as well as the prognosis of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods: Blood samples from 108 DLBCL patients treated at the Department of Hematology of the Fourth Hospital of Heibei Medical University during July,1991 and July 2012 were collected for this study; in addition, blood samples from 159 healthy controls during the same period were also collected. DNA was extracted according to the standard protocols for PCR amplification and SNP locus genotype analyses. The risk of D-loop SNPs was investigated by case-control study. Results: The minor alleles of nucleotides 73A/G, 263A/G, 315C/C insert were associated with a decreased risk for DLBCL. The minor allele of the nucleotides 200G/A was associated with an increased risk for DLBCL.To further evaluate the predictive function of D-loop SNPs in DLBCL patients, five SNP sites were identified by Log-Rank test that with statistically significant prediction value of DLBCL survival in a univariate analysis. In a multivariate analysis, allele 16304 was identified as an independent predictor of DLBCL prognosis. The survival time of DLBCL patients with 16304C was significantly shorter than that of patients with 16304T (RR=0.513, 95% CI=0.266-0.989, P<0.05). Conclusion: The analysis of D-loop SNPs in mtDNA can help identifying the occurrence risks and poor prognosis subtypes of DLBCL.

    Abstract:
    [摘要] IL-1 有IL-1α 和IL-1β 两种亚型,其受体家族包括I 型和II 型两种受体形式(IL1R1 和IL1R2)以及一种受体辅助蛋白(IL1RAP)。在IL1RAP帮助下,IL-1α 和IL-1β 均可与ILR1 形成IL-1/IL1R1/IL1RAP复合物,激活下游信号转导通路,发挥生物学作用;IL1R2 由于缺少胞内TIR 结构域无法介导IL-1 信号通路,而能通过与IL1R1 竞争性结合抑制IL-1 的作用。IL1R2 起初被认为是一种IL-1 的诱捕受体,但在后续的研究中发现其在多种肿瘤中有异常表达,且多数呈现异常上调状态,仅在少数肿瘤中低表达,其表达与许多肿瘤的发生发展以及预后有着重要关联。本文针对IL1R2 在肿瘤发生发展中的作用方面的相关研究进展进行综述。

    Abstract:
    [摘要] 超过25%的实体瘤患者在晚期都会出现不同程度的骨转移。发生骨转移的肿瘤细胞与骨微环境内细胞相互作用,骨稳态被打破,建立起促进肿瘤生长、加速骨质破坏的恶性循环,进一步促进肿瘤细胞在骨髓腔中浸润,导致转移的级联反应。肿瘤骨转移是一个复杂的过程,大量分子和信号通路参与其中。研究证实,哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶蛋白(mammalian target of rapamycin,mTOR)信号通路活性的改变与肿瘤细胞的骨转移以及转移后骨质破坏密切相关。本文从肿瘤细胞的脱落、迁移、黏附和侵入等转移步骤以及骨代谢变化两方面对mTOR信号通路在肿瘤骨转移过程中的作用进行阐述,为肿瘤骨转移的预防和治疗提供新的方向。
