Objective To detect the changes of cell invasion and proliferation in hepatocellular carcino -ma cell line HepG2 through the upregulation of miR -222.Methods The expression of miR-222 was up-reg-ulated by liposomal transfection .The expression of PTEN which is the targeting protein of miR -222 was detected by using Western Blot assay .The changes of proliferative capacity and invasive ability in HepG 2 cells after the upregulation of miR-222 were detected through MTT assay and Transwell assay .Results In Western Blot ex-periments,the expression of PTEN in transfection groups were lower than that in negative control groups and blank control groups.In MTT assay,the OD values in transfected group were higher than that in negative control group and blank control group(P<0.05).In transwell experiments,the number of penetrating cells in transfected group were higher than that in negative control group and blank control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Our results sug-gest that PTEN is significantly down regulated by the upregulation of miR -222.The proliferative capacity and inva-sive ability are raised in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG 2 through the upregulation of miR-222.

Mucins(MUC)are secreted by the epithelial cells of polymer ,the height of glycosylation gly-coprotein,widely existing in the respiratory system ,digestive system,urogenital system in the mucosa epithelium and mucus secretion .The resent studies show that sticks are closely associated with tumor protein family .Among them,the sticky protein 1(CA153)and 16 mucins(CA125)has been confirmed that the abnormal expression in the bile duct carcinoma.However,there is unclear relationship between the development ,invasion,metastasis and prognosis of gallbladder .Based on the retrospective literature at home and abroad in recent years , the research progress on the sticky protein 1 and mucins 16 in the gallbladder is summarized in the present review .

Objective To investigate the cell origin of interleukin (IL)-22-secreting cell of mice infected with Trichinella spiralis (T.spiralis) at the early encapsulated stage.Methods Twelve Balb/c mice were divided into the infected group and the control group according to body weight by random number table.The infected mice were intragastrically administrated with 300 muscle larvae of T.spiralis,and the control mice were given the same amount of normal saline.The IL-22-secreting cell subsets in mouse splenic lymphocytes were detected by flow cytometry at the fourth week after infection.Results The proportion of IL-22-secreting cells in splenic lymphocytes of T.spiralis infected mice was increased when compared with control group [(0.88 ± 0.25)% vs (0.28 ±0.17)%,t =-4.899,P < 0.05].There was no significant difference between the proportion of CD3+IL-22+ cells and CD3-IL-22+ cells in the splenic lymphocytes of the infected group [(0.29 ± 0.17)% vs (0.51 ± 0.17)%,t =-2.195,P > 0.05],and the percentage of CD3-IL-22+ cells were similar between the infected group and the control group [(0.51 ± 0.17)% vs (0.44 ± 0.22)%,t =-0.600,P > 0.05].The proportion of CD3+IL-22+ cells in the infected group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(0.29 ± 0.17)% vs (0.07 ± 0.06)%,t =-3.068,P < 0.05],and the percentage of CD4+IL-22+ T cells and γδTCR+IL-22+ T cells were obviously increased in CD3+ lymphocytes [(1.28 ± 0.54)% vs (0.16 ± 0.07)%,(0.33 ± 0.22)% vs (0.02 ± 0.00)%,t =-4.997,-3.342,P < 0.05].Conclusions The proportion of IL-22-secreting splenic lymphocytes is increased in mice infected with T.spiralis at the early encapsulated stage.The rise is caused by increased numbers of IL-22-secreting CD3 + lymphocytes,especially CD4+ T cells and γδT cells.
