Objective:To investigate the expression of NADPH Oxidase2 (NOX2) in gastric cancer tissues and its correlation with vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) level.Methods:The gastric cancer tissue and the adjacent tumor tissue were obtained from the patients who received radical operation for gastric cancer during July 2014 to July 2015 in Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University.The expression of NOX2 in the tumor tissue and the adjacent tissue were detected by the immunohistochemistry(IHC) and Western blot.The VEGF level were detected by IHC in gastric cancer tissues.The spearman rank correlation were used to detected the correlation between the NOX2 and VEGF.Results:The positive expression rate of NOX2 in gastric cancer tissue was 47.2％ (58/123),and the positive expression rate in the adjacent tissue was 8.13％ (10/123),mostly expression in the adjacent was weak positive.The outcome of Western blot show that the NOX2 was up-regulated in the tumor tissue compare to the adjacent tissue [39.0％(48/123)].The expression of NOX2 and the relationship of clinical-pathology showed the expression of NOX2 had no correlation with gender,age,differentiation of tumor (X2 value were 0.852,0.150,5.062,P＞0.05).The result of spearman rank correlation showed that the NOX2 was positively correlated with that of VEGF.Conclusion:NOX2 plays an important role in the genesis and development in the gastric cancer,the expression of NOX2 was closely correlated with the VEGF.

Objective To investigate the relations between microRNA-451 (miR-451) expression and gastric cancer (GC).Methods Expression of miR-451 in tumor and paired non-cancerous tissues was measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The association of miR-451 expression with clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis was statistically analyzed;in addition,slow virus LV-mir-451 was applied to infect human gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 and MKN-45,and construct miR-451 over-expressed stable cell lines.Finally,to detect cell proliferation,migration and invasion.Results miR-451 expression decreased in GC tissues vs.pericarcinous tissues (0.010 ± 0.007 vs.0.014 ± 0.008,t =3.015,P ＜ 0.05),and its down-regulation positively correlated with lymphatic metastasis,clinical staging and shorter overall survival.miR-451 expression in BGC-823 and MKN-45 cells did not impact on cell proliferation,but did reduce migration rates (0.863 ±0.026 vs.1.107 ±0.032,t =9.820,P＜0.05;0.863 ±0.026 vs.1.060±0.054,t =4.369,P＜0.05) and invasion rates (1.040 ± 0.055 vs.1.522 ± 0.001,t =5.84,P ＜ 0.05;1.040 ± 0.055 vs.1.696 ± 0.078,t =10.16,P ＜ 0.05) in BGC-823 cells.Conclusions miR-451 may act as a prognostic marker in GC.
