Objective To analyze the nutritional status of patients with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and explore reasonable and effective nursing measures.Methods Nutritional assessment was performed in 60 patients with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis,using subjective integrated nutritional assessment,dietary analysis,measurement of biochemical indexes of the human body to analyze the factors that might affect the nutritional status of patients.Results 60 cases of malnutrition occurrd in 20 patients (33.3per cent),mainly due to insufficient protein and energy intake,inadequate dialysis,peritoneal inflammation,metabolic acidosis,psychosocial factors and not using erythropoietin,and so on.Conclusions Measures such as emphasis paid to malnutrition status of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients,giving guidance of rational diet,performing full implementation of nursing measures according to the related factors,can improve the nutritional status of patients and improve patients' quality of life.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of ubiquitin-specific protease 11(USP11)affecting the proliferation and invasion of oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)cells by regulating IGF2BP3 expression.Methods:USP11 expression in OSCC tissues and adja-cent tissues from OSCC patients(n=50)was detected by immunohistochemistry and western blot,and USP11 expression in normal hu-man oral keratinocyte(HOK)cell line and human OSCC cell lines SCC-25 and CAL-27 was detected by western blot.SCC-25 and CAL-27 cells were transfected with siRNA USP11(si-USP11)or siRNA negative control(si-NC).Western blot was performed to de-tect the silencing efficiency of USP11.CCK-8,wound healing assay and Transwell assay were carried out to evaluate the effects of USP11 silencing on cell proliferation,migration and invasion.Western blot was employed to detect IGF2BP3 expression after the knockdown of USP11.Nude mice were inoculated with SCC-25 cells to construct the transplanted tumor model,and the inhibitory effect of USP11 knock-down on SCC-25 cell tumorigenicity was investigated.Results:The USP11 protein level in carcinoma tissues of OSCC patients was significantly higher than in the adjacent tissues,USP11 protein expression was significantly higher in SCC-25 and CAL-27 cells than in HOK cells.The knockdown of USP11 markedly reduced the proliferation,migration and invasion of SCC-25 and CAL-27 cells,and down-regulated the expression of IGF2BP3 cells.Compared with the USP11 silencing group,the proliferation,migration and invasion of SCC-25 and CAL-27 cells were significantly increased in the simultaneous knockdown of USP11 and overexpression of IGF2BP3 cells.Compared with the USP11 overexpression group,the proliferation,migration and invasion of SCC-25 and CAL-27 cells were decreased in the simultaneous IGF2BP3 knockdown and USP11 overexpression cells.Tumorigenicity experiments in nude mice showed that the tumor volume and weight were significantly declined by USP11 knockdown.Conclusion:USP11 is highly expressed in OSCC tissues,which may promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of OSCC cells through up-regulation of IGF2BP3 expression.
3.lncRNA MAFG-AS1 regulates proliferation and apoptosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma HSC4 cells by targeting miR-3180-3p
Chinese Journal of Immunology 2024;40(4):761-766
Objective:To investigate effect of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)MAFG antisense RNA1(MAFG-AS1)target-ing miR-3180-3p on proliferation and apoptosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma.Methods:MAFG-AS1 and miR-3180-3p expressions in oral squamous cell carcinoma tissues and corresponding normal mucosa were detected by real-time quantitative PCR.Oral squamous cell carcinoma HSC4 was used as research object to construct oral squamous cell carcinoma lines that interfered with MAFG-AS1,overexpressed miR-3180-3p or miR-3180-3p inhibition.Cell viability,clonal formation numbers,apoptosis rate,cleaved cleaved-cas-pase 3 and cleaved-caspase 9 expressions were detected by CCK-8,plane cloning experiment,flow cytometry and Western blot,re-spectively.Targeting relationship between MAFG-AS1 and miR-3180-3p was assessed with luciferase reporter experiment.Results:Compared with normal mucosa,MAFG-AS1 expression was remarkably increased(P<0.05),while miR-3180-3p expression was re-markably decreased(P<0.05)in oral squamous cell carcinoma tissues.Interference with MAFG-AS1 or miR-3180-3p overexpression could reduce HSC4 cell viability and clonal formation numbers(P<0.05),promote cell apoptosis(P<0.05),and up-regulate expres-sions of cleaved-caspase 3 and cleaved-caspase 9 proteins(P<0.05).miR-3180-3p was direct target of MAFG-AS1,and MAFG-AS1 negatively regulates miR-3180-3p expression.miR-3180-3p inhibition could increase HSC4 cell viability and colony formation number(P<0.05),inhibit cell apoptosis(P<0.05),and down-regulate cleaved-caspase 3 and cleaved-caspase 9 protein expressions(P<0.05),thereby weakening effect of interference with MAFG-AS1 on proliferation inhibition and apoptosis promotion on HSC4 cells(P<0.05).Conclusion:Interfering with MAFG-AS1 can inhibit proliferation and promote apoptosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells HSC4 by up-regulating miR-3180-3p expression.
