ObjectiveTo investigate the methylation status of multiple genes in plasma and tumor tissues and its application in molecular diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Methods Methylation specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) was used to detect methylation status of 5 tumor suppressor genes,such as adenomatous polyposis coli ( APC ),retinoic acid receptor-beta2 ( RARβ2 ),E-cadherin (CDH1),cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor4A (p16INK4α) and ras association domain family member 1 A (RASSF1A) in tumour tissues,adjacent normal tissues and plasma which obtained 1 d preoperative and 7 d postoperative in 76 cases with ESCC.60 healthy volunteers were randomly selected as a control which were age-matched and sex-matched.Chi square test was used to analyze DNA methylation rates of 5 genes in various groups of tissue and plasma samples; Kappa test was used to compare the consistency of DNA methylation in the plasma samples and tissue samples,and their correlation was analyzed by Spearman correlation test; Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity for single gene detection and 5 genes joint detection for diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.ResultsThe methylation rates of APC,RARβ2,CDH1,p16INK4α and RASSF1A in tumour tissues of patients with ESCC were 44.7% ( 34/76),72.4% ( 55/76 ),72.4% (55/76),86.8% ( 66/76 ),55.3% (42/76),respectively,which were significantly higher than that in the corresponding adjacent normal tissues [ 6.6% ( 5/76 ),3.9% ( 3/76 ),3.9% ( 3/76 ),3.9% ( 3/76 ),2.6% ( 2/76 ),x2 =29.01,75.39,75.39,105.34,57.18,all P < 0.001 ].The methylation rates of above 5 genes in patients' plasma were 42.1% ( 32/76 ),63.2% ( 48/76 ),63.2% ( 48/76 ),71.1% ( 54/76 ),50.0% ( 38/76 ),respectively,which were significantly higher than that of control group [3.3% (2/60),3.3% (2/60),1.7% ( 1/60),3.3% (2/60),1.7% (1/60),x2 =26.88,51.62,55.01,63.48,38.30,all P < 0.001 ].The methylation consistency was favorable or well between plasma and tumour tissues in patients with ESCC ( Kappa value was 0.679,0.791,0.791,0.542 and 0.895,respectively.all P <0.001 ).In single-gene detection for patients' plasma,methylation,the sensitivity of 5 genes was 42.1% ( 32/76 ),63.2% ( 48/76 ),63.2% ( 48/76 ),71.1% ( 54/76 ),50.0% ( 38/76 ),respectively.The specificity was 96.7% ( 58/60 ),96.7% ( 58/60 ),98.3% (59/60),96.7% (58/60),98.3% (59/60),respectively.The area under curve (AUC) of ROC was 0.694 [95% confidence interval( CI)0.606 - 0.782 ) ],0.799 ( 95% CI 0.723 - 0.875 ),0.807 ( 95%CI 0.733 - 0.882),0.839 ( 95 % CI 0.769 - 0.908 ) and 0.742 ( 95 % CI 0.659 - 0.824 ),respectively.In united testing of 5 genes,the sensitivity was 80.3% and the specificity was 88.3%,AUC was 0.843 (95%CI 0.773 -0.913 ).The sensitivity of united testing was significantly higher than that of single-gene detection of APC and RASSF1A(x2 =23.30,15.33 ; P < 0.001 ),except RARβ2,CDH1 and p16INK4α (x2 =5.48,5.48,1.75; P =0.019,0.019,0.186);There was no significant differences in specificity between united testing and single-gene detection (x2 =1.922,1.922,3.348,1.922,3.348,all P > 0.05 ).Conclusions The methylation consistency is favorable or well between tumour tissues and plasma in patients with ESCC.There is no significant superior in diagnosing ESCC with united testing of multiple tumor suppressor genes methylation in plasma than with single-gene detection.But the sensitivity of the former is better than the latter.

Objective To detect the expressions of microRNA-126 (miR-126) and microRNA-7 (miR-7) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and to analyze their correlations with clinicopathologic features and prognosis of ESCC.Methods The expressions of miR-126 and miR-7 in 116 ESCC samples and matched normal tissue samples were detected by real-time PCR.Statistical analysis was used to find the relationships among the expressions of miR-126 and miR-7,pathological characteristics and prognosis.Results Low expression,normal expression and high expression of miR-126 were found in 73 (62.9%),35 (30.2%) and 8 (6.9%) carcinoma samples respectively.Low expression,normal expression and high expression of miR-7 were found in 52 (44.8%),35 (30.2%) and 29 (25.0%) carcinoma samples respectively.The disease-free survival in patients with low expression of miR-126 and miR-7 was shorter than that in patients with non-low expression (x2 =4.268,P <0.05 ; x2 =4.993,P <0.05).The low expression of miR-126 was correlated with tumor location,family history and drinking (x2 =14.564,P < 0.05 ; x2 =5.691,P < 0.05 ; x2 =4.971,P < 0.05),but was uncorrelated with gender,age,diferentiation,infiltration,lymphatic metastasis and smoking (all P > 0.05).The low expression of miR-7 was uncorrelated with pathological characteristics of ESCC (all P > 0.05).Conclusion The low expressions of miR-126 and miR-7 may be related to the prognosis of patients with ESCC,and have a certain clinical detection significance.

Researches find that microRNAs(miRNAs) participate in cell proliferation,differentiation and apoptosis.Dysregulation of miRNA exist in almost all kinds of tumors,including esophageal cancer.MiRNAs bind to mRNA of oncogene or tumor suppressor gene by perfectly or partly base-pair complementarity,and then,promote mRNA degradation or inhibit translation of target mRNA.Recently studies have comfirmed that miRNA functions as a significant regulator in esophageal cancer and it is involved in tumorigenesis,development and prognosis.MiR-21 binds to programmed cell death 4(PDCD4) mRNA and inhibits the translation of PDCD4,then promotes tumorigenesis of esophageal cancer.MiR-106-25 polycistron is activated by genomic amplification,and then suppresses the expressions of P21 and Rim,and subsequently promotes the occurrence and progress of esophageal cancer.

Objectives To investigate the effects of matrine on the proliferation and apoptosis of SK-NEP-1 cells in vitro, and its possible mechanism. Methods Trials were divided into following groups:control group, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5mg/ml of ma-trine intervention groups. The inhibition rate of SK-NEP-1 cells treated with different concentration of Matrine was detected by MTT colorimetric assay. Apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry (FCM). RT-PCR analysis was employed to measure the PDCD4 mRNA expression. Results Matrine (final concentrations=0.5, 1.0 and 1.5mg/ml) could induce apoptosis and inhibit the growth of SK-NEP-1 cells. Compared with the controls without matrine treatment (8.81±3.71)%, the inhibition rates of SK-NEP-1 cells were (20.79 ± 6.20)%, (31.25 ± 5.07)%, and (51.15 ± 12.70)%, respectively;the apoptotic rates of SK-NEP-1 cells treated with different concentration of matrine were (13.67±0.78)%,(17.43±1.65)%and (20.80±1.54)%, respectively. Significant difference in the inhibition and apoptotic rates of SK-NEP-1 cells between each drug group and control group was observed(P<0.05), and the inhibition and apoptotic rates of SK-NEP-1 cells increased gradually with increased matrine concentration, thus exhibiting a dose-dependent effect(P<0.05). To the expression of CXCR4 mRNA,the grey levels of SK-NEP-1 cells treated with matrine intervention group (final concentrations=0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 mg/ml) were (0.720 ± 0.058), (0.540 ± 0.095) and (0.307 ± 0.050), respectively. The mRNA expression of CXCR4 was seen in SK-NEP-1 cells. Compared with control group, the expres-sion of CXCR4 mRNA was decreased significantly in matrine intervention group (P<0.01).There were significant difference in CXCR4 mRNA level among the SK-NEP-1 cells treated with 0.5,1.0,1.5mg/mL of matrine (P<0.01). Conclusions Matrine could induce apoptosis and inhibit the growth of SK-NEP-1 cells in a dose-dependent way which may be associated with the down-regulated CXCR4 expression in SK-NEP-1 cells.
