Objective:The significant role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in early diagnosis and predicting prognosis has been recognized in various cancers recently.However,the prognostic value of HOXA transcript at the distal tip (HOTTIP),a vital lncRNA in tumorigenesis,remains unclear.In this study,we evaluated its prognostic value by analyzing the correlation of HOTTIP expression with overall survival (OS),lymph node metastasis (LNM) and distant metastasis (DM) in different cancer types by meta-analysis.Methods:We performed a systematic search in PUBMED,MEDLINE,Web of Science and Cochrane Library update to November of 2016.A total of 604 patients from 6 studies were included in final analysis and went through a quantitative meta-analysis by Review manager 5.3.Results:We demonstrated that high expression of HOTTIP had a significant correlation with poor OS (hazard ratio [HR] =2.37,95％ confidence interval [CI] =1.81-3.10,p＜0.001),high LNM rate (odds ratio [OR]=2.29,95％CI=1.54-3.40,p＜0.001) as well as more DM occurrence (OR=3.30,95％CI=1.78-6.12,p＜0.001).Conclusion:Our results indicated that long non-coding RNA HOTTIP may serve as a potential prognostic biomarker in cancer progression.

Urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is a membrane protein which is attached to the cellular external membrane. The uPAR expression can be observed both in tumor cells and in tumor-associated stromal cells. Thus, in the present study, the human amino-terminal fragment (hATF), as a targeting element to uPAR, is used to conjugate to the surface of superparamagnetic iron nanoparticle (SPIO). Flowcytometry was used to examine the uPAR expression in different tumor cell lines. The specificity of hATF-SPIO was verified by Prussian blue stain and cell phantom test. The imaging properties of hATF-SPIO were confirmed in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of uPAR-elevated colon tumor. Finally, the distribution of hATF-SPIO in tumor tissue was confirmed by pathological staining. Results showed that the three cells in which we screened, presented different expression characteristics, i. e., Hela cells strongly expressed uPAR, HT29 cells moderately expressed uPAR, but Lovo cells didn't express uPAR. In vitro, after incubating with Hela cells, hATF-SPIO could specifically combined to and be subsequently internalized by uPAR positive cells, which could be observed via Prussian blue staining. Meanwhile T2WI signal intensity of Hela cells, after incubation with targeted probe, significantly decreased, and otherwise no obvious changes in Lovo cells both by Prussian blue staining and MRI scans. In vivo, hATF-SPIO could be systematically delivered to HT29 xenograft and accumulated in the tumor tissue which was confirmed by Prussian Blue stain compared to Lovo xenografts. Twenty-four hours after injection of targeting probe, the signal intensity of HT29 xenografts was lower than Lovo ones which was statistically significant. This targeting nanoparticles enabled not only in vitro specifically combining to uPAR positive cells but also in vivo imaging of uPAR moderately elevated colon cancer lesions.

To investigate the effect of compound Chinese traditional medicine PC-SPES II I in inhibiting proliferation of human prostate cancer cell LNCaP based on the androgen receptor (AR) signaling pathway. The effect of PC-SPES II on LNCaP cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay. According to the findings, at the mass concentration of 180-1 440 mg x L(-1), PC-SPES II significantly inhibited the proliferation of LNCaP cells; the IC50 of PC-SPES II at 24 h and 48 h were 311.48, 199.01 mg x L(-1), respectively. The flow Cytometry detection showed 240 mg x L(-1) PC-SPES II arrested cells in G2/M phase, and an obvious apoptotic peak appeared before G0/G1 peak and rose over time. Meanwhile, Hoechst 33258 staining revealed apoptotic cellular morphology. Annexin V-FITC/PI staining manifested an increase in apoptotic cell ratio at the PC-SPES II concentration of 480 mg x L(-1) in a dose dependent manner. The prostate specific antigen (PSA) secretion of LNCaP cells was tested by PSA ELISA kit. Besides, compared with 25 mg x L(-1) Bic, 480 mg x L(-1) PC-SPES II significantly reduced the cell secretion of PSA. The AR and PSA mRNA and protein expressions were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. According to the results, after the induction of LNCaP cells with synthetic androgen 25 μg x L(-1) R1881, 240-480 mg x L(-1) PC-SPES II notably down-regulated the AR and PSA mRNA and protein expressions and inhibited the translocation of AR from cytoplasm to nucleus. In summary, PC-SPES II significantly can inhibit the in vitro proliferation of LNCaP cells and arrest cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase. Its mechanism may be associated with the down-regulation of the AR and PSA expressions and the inhibition of AR nuclear translocation.

Objective To investigate the changes of expression of stromal cell-derived factor 1α (SDF-1α) in retinas after partial optic nerve injury in rats. Methods Models with injury of partial optic nerve were induced in rats. Retinal tissues were collected 1,2,3,5,7,10 and 14 d after injury. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and Real-time quantitative PCR were employed to detect the expression of SDF-1α protein and mRNA in retinal tissues respectively in injury group (n=28), sham operated group (n=28) and normal control group (n=12). Results The expression of SDF-1α protein and mRNA in retinas was higher than that in sham operated group and normal control group at different time points after injury (P<0.01), and it reached the peak at the 5th day after injury. The expression of SDF-1α protein and mRNA maintained a high level at the 14th day after injury. Conclusion The expression of SDF-1α protein and mRNA is up-regulated after partial optic nerve injury, and may last for a long time.

OBJECTIVETo study operative effects for the treatment of multiple ligament injuries of knee joints.

METHODSFrom 2008 to 2013, 26 patients (17 males and 9 females) with multiple ligament injuries of knee joints were treated surgically. The average age was 40.7 years old, ranging from 29 to 55 years old. All the patients were treated with arthroscopic reconstruction of cruiate ligament with autogenous or allogeneic hamstrings and tendon, and at the same time received repair of medial collateral ligament and lateral collateral ligament, as well as the treatment of exterior and interior complex injuries. Nine patients received second stage operation after the initial operation for mistake or missed diagnosis, and other patients were treated at the first stage. The Lysholm scoring system was used to evaluate function and stability of knee joints before and after operation.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up for an average duration of 1.6 years (ranged, 0.8 to 3.2 years). The mean awaiting time for operation was 1.2 months. The Lysholm score was improved from preoperative 42.5 +/- 4.5 (ranged, 33 to 48) to the latest follow-up 78.1 +/- 3.9 (ranged, 57 to 95). The function of knee joint was improved obviously in the arthroscopic reconstruction patients, with joint range of motion exceeding 900 and with Varus & Valgus tests near to normal. All the patients had negative findings in the Lachman test at 70 degrees of flexion.

CONCLUSIONArthroscopic reconstruction should be the first choice in treating multiple ligament injuries of knee joints. If the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament injuries can't be treated simultaneously, the posterior cruciate ligament injuries should be treated preferentially at the first stage and the anterior cruciate ligament injuries should be treated at the second stage. The diagnosis of posterior cruciate ligament is easy to be missed.
