Objective To evaluate two different histopathological classification systems (Fletcher and Miettinen) for the risk in cases of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). Methods One hundred and sixty-five GIST cases with complete clinicopathologic and follow-up data were evaluated for their biologic potential by the histopathological classification systems of Fletcher, and among those, 164 cases GIST were evaluated by the histopathological classification systems of Miettinen. The implication of two classification systems were compared by survival analysis. Results Evaluated by Fletcher histopathological classification system, 59 cases (35. 8%) were graded as high risk, 49 cases (29. 7%) as intermediate risk, 43 cases (26. 1%) as low risk and 14 cases (8. 5%) were very-low risk. Evaluated by Miettinen's system, 68 cases (41.5%) were as high risk, 23 cases (14. 0%) were intermedatie risk, 60 cases (36. 6%) were low risk and 13 cases (7. 9%) were very-low risk. Evaluated by both two systems, the survival time and disease-free survival time of high risk GIST were lower than those of very-low, low and intermediate risk GIST(P <0. 05), the survival time and disease-free survival time of intermediate risk GIST were lower than those of low risk GIST(P<0. 05). According to Fletcher's system, in the high risk GIST, the disease-free survival time of small intestinal, colonic and rectal GIST was lower than that of gastric GIST(P = 0. 022), and in the intermediate risk GIST, the survival time of small intestinal, colonic and rectal GIST was lower than that of gastric GIST(P =0. 032). According to Miettinen's system, in the risk subgroup of GIST, the survival time and disease-free survival time of gastric, small intestinal, colonic and rectal GIST has no statistical difference(P > 0. 05). Conclusions Fletcher histopathological classification system is simple and easy to use, while Miettinen's system for evaluating biological potential by anatomic site is more accurate and predictive in the selection of high risk patients for target adjuvant treatment.

Objective To investigate the relationship between tumor subclassifieation and the clinicopathologic features and prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Method From June 2000 to June 2007, 63 gastrointestinal DLBCL cases were enrolled. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect CDIO, Bcl-6 and MUM1 expression. Tumors were subclassified according to CDIO, Bcl-6 and MUM1 expression. Results CD10 expression was positive in 13 cases. Bcl-6 expression was positive in 53 cases. MUM1 expression was positive in 52 cases. According to the expression of CD10, Bcl-6 and MUM1, 17 cases(27%) were of germinal center B cell-like (GCB) DLBCL and 46 cases (73%) were of non-GCB. There was a significant difference in local lymph node metastasis between GCB group and non-GCB group, but there was no significant difference in terms of tumor size and infiltrate depth between the two subgroups. The survival time of patients in GCB group(76 months) was significantly longer than that of non-GCB group (28 months). Among cases receiving postoperative chemotherapy (CHOP), the survival of GCB group (76 months) was longer than non-GCB group (24 months). All 4 GCB cases and 4 non-GCB cases under R-CHOP chemotherapy are alive (22 ~ 47 months). Conclusion Gastrointestinal DLBCL subclassification is closely correlated with local lymph node metastasis, and this in combination with the expression of CD10 could be used to predict the prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal DLBCL.

Objective To explore the association between the C46T polymorphism of coagulation factor Ⅻ (FⅫ) gene and the involvement of FⅫ activity (FⅫ:C) in patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA), and to elucidate its role in the pathogenesis of URSA. Methods This study included 203 patients with URSA (URSA group) and 171 healthy women with at least one child and no history of infertility or miscarriage (control group) in the southern area of Zhejiang Province. The C 46T polymorphism of the FⅫ gene was analyzed with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) in all subjects. The values of prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen, FⅫ:C and other coagulant parameters were determined. The frequency distribution of the wild-type (CC), heterozygote (CT), homozygote (TT) genotypes and C and T alleles were compared between the patients and controls. A comprehensive analysis of association was conducted between C46T genotypes and the FⅫ:C levels in URSA patients. Results The CC, CT, TT genotypes of the FⅫgene were observed in 7 (3.4%, 7/203), 83 (40.9%, 83/203) and 113 (55.7%, 113/203) patients with URSA versus 7 (4.1%, 7/171), 46 (26.9%, 46/171) and 118 (69.0%, 118/171) controls. The frequency of CT in the patients with URSA was significantly higher than that in controls, but the frequency of TT in the patients was lower than that in controls (χ2=7.939, OR=1.884, 95%CI:1.210-2.935, P<0.05). The frequencies of allele C and allele T were observed in 97 (23.9%, 97/406) and 309 (76.1%, 309/406) patients with URSA versus 60 (17.5%, 60/342) and 282 (82.5%, 282/342) controls. The distribution frequency of allele T in URSA group was lower than that in control group (χ2=4.510, OR=1.475, 95%CI:1.029-2.115, P<0.05). The FⅫ:C levels in the patients were (102±13)%in CC genotype, (78±11)%in CT genotype and (59± 9)%in TT genotype, respectively. The differences of the FⅫ:C levels between the CC and CT, CT and TT, CC and TT genotypes in the patients were significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions The low level of FⅫ:C maybe result from the T allele of the FⅫgene in URSA patients. The CT genotype might be relative to the pathogenesis of URSA in a Chinese Han female population from the southern area of Zhejiang province.

Objective To investigate the correlation of miR-181a and miR-181b with fucosyltransferase FUT1, the functional mechanism was elucidated in a colorectal cancer ( CRC).Methods It collected 32 pairs of tissue samples , 18 males and 14 females in the first affiliated hospital of Dalian Medicinal University, from March 2014 to January 2016.The expression of miR-181a and miR-181b was detected by RT-PCR in CRC tissues , adjacent tissues , serum of colorectal cancer patients and healthy people, and CRC cell lines SW620 and SW480 with differently metastatic ability.The relationship of FUT1 and miR-181a, miR-181b expression were verificated by Pearson's correlation curve.FUT1 was identified the target of miR-181a and miR-181b by Network prediction softwares ( TargetScan Human 7.1, microRNA.org and Starbase v2.0) and luciferase assay.The effects of miR-181a and miR-181b expression on the proliferation, migration, invasion and angiogenesis of SW 480 and SW620 cells were further detected by CCK8, wound healing, transwell and tube foramtion assays.T-test was used for comparison between two independent samples , and one-way anova was used for comparison between multiple samples . Pearson correlation coefficient was used for correlation analysis .Results The levels of miR-181a and 181b in CRC tissues were much lower than in tumor-adjacent tissues (3.12 ±1.88 vs 6.44 ±2.32, t=11.74;3.16 ± 1.77 vs 5.52 ±2.45, t=3.24 ;P<0.05).The levels of miR-181a and 181b in serum of colorectal cancer patients were much lower than in healthy people (1.32 ±0.25,2.57 ±0.48,t=10.26;0.91 ±0.14,1.63 ± 0.29,t=5.19;P<0.05 ) .The levels of miR-181a and miR-181b in SW620, SW480 CRC cells were detected to be much lower than in normal colorectal epithelial cells [(0.65 ±0.10, 0.50 ±0.09) vs 1.0;(0.60 ±0.12,0.42 ±0.03)vs 1.0;t=3.08, P<0.05].FUT1 was highly expressed in CRC tissues and SW620 (t=5.23, P<0.05).Based on the network prediction softwares and luciferase assays , FUT1 was the common target of miR-181a and miR-181b.Over expression of miR-181a or miR-181b inhibited FUT1 level and attenuated the capacity of cell migration , invasion and proliferation in SW 620.Down-regulation of miRNAs in SW480 increased FUT1 expression and promoted the capability of cell migration , invasion and proliferation.Downregulation of the two miRNAs attenuated the capability of cell invasion in SW 480, which was blocked by the reductive FUT1.Conclusion MiR-181a and miR-181b mediated the progression of CRC cells by targeting FUT1.

Objective:To explore the expression of circular RNA circ-MYBL2 in prostate cancer tissue and the molecular mechanism of its influence on the occurrence and metastasis of prostate cancer.Methods:From February 2017 to April 2021, 45 cases of prostate cancer tissues and paracancerous tissues from patients with prostate cancer in the Department of Urology, Jingmen No.2 People′s Hospital were selected. quantitative real-time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the difference in expression of circ-MYBL2 in prostate cancer tissues and adjacent tissues, and the difference in expression of circ-MYBL2 in prostate cancer cell lines and immortalized prostate duct epithelial cells. Cell lines with low circ-MYBL2 expression were respectively transfected with circ-MYBL2 plasmid (circ-MYBL2 group) or negative control plasmid (control group). qRT-PCR was used to detect the transfection efficiency of circ-MYBL2 plasmid. CCK-8 method and cell scratch test were used to detect the effect of circ-MYBL2 on cell proliferation and migration. The starBase v2.0 software was used to predict the miRNA bound by circ-MYBL2 and the target gene of miRNA. The dual luciferase reporter gene experiment was used to verify the regulatory relationship between circ-MYBL2 and miRNA. qRT-PCR was used to detect the influence of circ-MYBL2 on miRNA expression and the influence of miRNA on target gene mRNA expression. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of target gene protein and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway proteins. The measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD), the comparison between the means of multiple samples used one-way analysis of variance, and the comparison between the means of two samples used the t-test. Results:The expression of circ-MYBL2 of DU-145 cells in prostate cancer tissue was significantly lower than that in adjacent tissues ( P<0.01). The expression of circ-MYBL2 in prostate cancer cell lines was significantly lower than that of prostate ductal epithelial cells ( P<0.01), and the expression of DU-145 cells was the lowest ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the expression of circ-MYBL2 of DU-145 cells in the circ-MYBL2 group increased significantly ( P<0.01), and circ-MYBL2 reduced the proliferation activity ( P<0.05) and migration ability ( P<0.01) of DU-145 cells. circ-MYBL2 acted as a sponge to adsorb miR-324-3p, and miR-324-3p complementarily bound to the suppressor of SUFU gene. circ-MYBL2 inhibited the expression of miR-324-3p ( P<0.01), SUFU gene expression was increased ( P<0.01), and Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway transduction was inhibited. Conclusion:circ-MYBL2 promotes the expression of SUFU gene by adsorbing miR-324-3p, inhibits the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, thereby reducing the proliferation activity and migration ability of prostate cancer cells.
