1.Targeted therapy of advanced colorectal cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2016;43(5):391-394
Targeted agents for advanced colorectal cancer mainly include inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR).Studies show that bevacizumab and cetuximab can improve the prognosis of advanced colorectal cancer patients,but there is slight difference in the choice of chemotherapy regimens when combined with them.Bevacizumab and cetuximab can improve the overall survival of K-ras wild-type colorectal cancer patients similarly.The emergence of new targeted drugs such as aflibercept,regorafenib provides more choices for the targeted therapy of advanced colorectal cancer patients.

Background:Prostaglandin E2(PGE2 )could promote the proliferation of tumor cells,microRNA-21(miR-21)could inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells,but its signal pathway is still unclear. Aims:To investigate the mechanism of PGE2 on promoting proliferation of gastric cancer cells potentially mediated by miR-21. Methods:Gastric cancer AGS cells were cultured and divided into control group,PGE2 group,anti-miR-21 group and PGE2 + anti-miR-21 group. Cell proliferation was determined by WST-1 chromatometry. Cell apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry. The expression of miR-21 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. After AGS cells were intervened by Akt specific inhibitor perifosine,cell proliferation was assessed,and expression of PTEN/ Akt protein was detected by Western blotting. Results:Compared with control group, survival rate of AGS cells was significantly increased(P < 0. 05),apoptosis rate was significantly decreased(P < 0. 05), and expression of miR-21 mRNA was significantly increased in PGE2 group(P <0. 05). Compared with PGE2 group, survival rate of AGS cells was significantly decreased(P < 0. 05),apoptosis rate was significantly increased(P < 0. 05), and expression of miR-21 mRNA was significantly decreased in anti-miR-21 group and PGE2 + anti-miR-21 group(P <0. 05). After intervention with perifosine,survival rate of AGS cells was significantly decreased(P < 0. 05),apoptosis rate was significantly increased(P < 0. 05),expression of PTEN protein was significantly increased,and expression of p-Akt protein was significantly decreased. Conclusions:MiR-21 mediates the promoting of proliferation of gastric cancer cells by PGE2 through PTEN/ Akt pathway,which might become a new target for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the features and main reasons of blindness induced by uveitis in China. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the data from 1 214 patients with uveitis, referring to Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, with special respect to the incidence of blindness in different uveitis entities, the characteristics of blindness, and possible causes for the blindness. Results In the affected 1 892 eyes of 1 214 patients with uveitis, 355 eyes (18.83%) were blind. The mean age at the onset of blindness was 34.38 years and the gender ratio of male to female was 1.52:1. The blindness led by panuveitis was found in 248 eyes (26.27%), including 128 (51.61%) and 73 (29.44%) blind eyes caused by Behcet's disease and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. Complicated cataract, vitreous opacity and secondary glaucoma were responsible for the blindness of the patients with panuveitis [89(35.89%), 53 (21.37%), and 30 eyes (12.10%), respectively]. Blindness caused by anterior uveitis was noted in 79 eyes (10.73%) with the main reasons of complicated cataract [56 eyes (70.89%)] and secondary glaucoma [16 eyes (20.25%)], posterior uveitis in 15 eyes (15.63%) with the main reason of vitreous opacity [9 eyes (60.00%)], macular diseases in 3 eyes (20.00%), intermediate uveitis in 13 eyes (11.21%) with the main reasons of vitreous opacity [8 eyes (61.54%)], and complicated cataract in 5 eyes (38.46%). Conclusions Uveitis is one of the important causes leading to blindness, especially in the young adults. Panuveitis, especially Behcet's disease and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome, are the most common entities responsible for blindness in patients with uveitis. Complicated cataract and secondary glaucoma are the main causes of blindness in uveitis.

Objective To investigate the effects of ?-interferon (IFN-? on the expression of costimulatory molecules B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86) and Fas/FasL in human retina. Methods Nine human eyes were obtained from the eye-bank of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center. Six eyes were used for making retinal wholemounts, and 12 retinal wholemounts from each eye were put into the 24-hole culture board which had 2ml DMEM/F12 culture medium in each hole. The wholemounts were divided into 3 groups whose concentration of IFN-? was 0, 200, and 1 000 U/ml respectively. After cultured in 37℃ culture box (95%O2,5%CO2) for 24 hours, the expressions of B7-1 (CD80), B7-2 (CD86), and Fas/FasL on these retinal wholemounts were detected by immunohistochemical method. The retinal wholemounts from 3 healthy people were detected by immunohistochemical method as the control. Results Expression of FasL but not B7-1, B7-2 or Fas was found in the control group, while the expression of B7-1, B7-2 and Fas and increased expression of FasL were found after cultured with IFN-?. Conclusion IFN-? may be involved in the occurrence of ocular immune response and induction of apoptosis via the stimulation of expression of costimulatory molecules and Fas/FasL, which plays an important role in the activation of T lymphocytes.
