Multiple chromosomal aberrations, nucleotide substitutions, and epigenetic modifications may occur in human cancer cells, which drive malignant transformation. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project aims to promote large-scale multi-dimensional analysis of these molecular characteristics in human cancer and rapidly provide data to researchers. In this study, we introduce four flow paths of the production of TCGA data, the collections of various cancer types, the data category and level, and the standardized pipeline of data analysis, as well as several existing data analytical tools. We used ovarian cancer as an example to introduce the application of the TCGA data in the analyses of mutation, copy number, analysis, and expression. We summarized the important findings of glioblasto-ma by TCGA teams.

Objective To verify the targeting regulatory relationship between microRNA (miR)-21-5p and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3 (MKK3).Methods miR-21-5p and MKK3 targeted relationship was analyzed by bioinformatics database predict.Constructing MKK3 3'UTR reporter vector (MKK3-3U) and mutation reporter vector (MKK3-3 U-M) was constructed by synthesizing miR-21-5p mimics (mimic),miR-2 1-5p inhibitor (inhibitor),nonsense miR (NC).NC (NC1 group),mimics (mimic1 group),inhibitor (inhibitor1 group) together with MKK3-3U cotransfected human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells,respectively.Empty vector-pYr-MirTarget (NC2 group),MKK33U (Mt group),M KK3-3U-M (Mut group) together with mimic co-transfected HEK293,respectively.The fluorescence ratio was detected by dual luciferase assay.NC,mimics,inhibitor intervened human renal tubular epithelial (HK-2) cells,respectively.RT-PCR and Western blot were used to test cell MKK3 expression level in HK-2.Results 1.The fluorescence ratios of NC1 group,mimicsl group,and inhibitor1 group were 100.00％,67.99％,133.17％,and there was difference between mimic1 group and NC1 group(t =19.93,P ＜ 0.05).2.The fluorescence ratios of NC2 group,Mt group and Mut group were 100.00％,65.30％,98.48％,and there was difference between Mt group and NC2 group (t =14.39,P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference between NC2 and Mut group (t =0.63,P ＞ 0.05).3.MKK3 mRNA relative expression levels of the control group mimic2 group and inhibitor2 group were 1.36 ± 0.02,1.01 ± 0.04,1.43 ± 0.06 ; relative protein expression levels were 0.97 ± 0.05,0.62 ± 0.06,1.36 ± 0.32.MKK3 mRNA and protein levels of mimic2 group were significantly lower compared with the control group (F =85.98,118.26,all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions MKK3 is the target gene of miR-21-5p.miR-21-5p can regulate the expression of MKK3 both in mRNA and protein levels.miR-21-5p may be an important regulatory molecule in p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND:Great saphenous vein is the most common vascular material in coronary artery bypass grafting, however, the graft neointimal hyperplasia and subsequent atherosclerosis result in angiostegnosis, which affect the long-term efficacy. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the pathophysiology and mechanism of the angiostenosis, additionally, to construct smooth muscle cell specific SM22a promoter and SMHC enhancer. METHODS: The database of PubMed, HighWire and CNKI were retrieved with key words of "SM22α promoter, SMHC enhancer, stenosis, Pi3k and RNAi/RNA interference". The language was confined to English and Chinese. The literatures correlated with angiostenosis, VSMC-specific SM22α promoter and enhancer were selected. The reviews and overlapped researches were excluded. In vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and apoptosis of graft neointimal hyperplasia, as well as the extent of graft thrombosis were considered as evaluation index. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: More than 8 730 literatures were searched by the computer. According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, the SM22α promoter and angiostenosis were analyzed. The neointimal hyperplasia and thrombosis had a strong impact on prospective efficacy after coronary artery bypass grafting. The PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway was a crucial signal passage which regulated cell proliferation and migration. RNA interference targeting Pik3cb can efficiently suppress the neointimal hyperplasia through down regulating the PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway. The shRNA eukaryon expression plasmid vectors targeting rat Pik3cb were constructed using VSMC-specific SM22α promoter. On the one hand, it can suppress the neointimal hyperplasia, and on the other, it can prevent the occurrence of thrombosis.SM22a is a specific gene in vascular smooth muscle cell. The studies that applied VSMC-specific SM22α promoter/enhancer to vascular grafting provide a new strategy to prevent angiostenosis and thrombosis.
