Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers.The clinical treatment of breast cancer has made great progress,but the inherent or acquired drug resistance,tumor migration and tumor infiltration,which lead to poor treatment efficiency and eventually death,are still the urgent problems to be solved.As with the occurrence and development of common tumors,the abnormal proliferation,migration and infiltration of breast tumor cells and muhidrug resistance (MDR) are closely related to the abnormal expression of specific genes in the cell.At present,many studies have found that the occurrence and development of tumor is closely related to the abnormal expression of microRNA.Therefore,in order to better understand the molecular mechanism of the occurrence and development of breast cancer,it is necessary to study the function of microRNA in breast tumor cells.In this paper,the application of microRNA in the treatment of breast cancer was reviewed,striving for providing effective ideas for the future selection of new strategies to control the development of tumors.

Objective To investigate the effects of macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α) combined with molecule 4-1BB L on the tumorigenicity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells in vivo. Methods Mouse MIP-1α (mMIP-1α) expressed Hepa 1-6 cells were transfected with m4-1BBL recombinant retrovirus, the anti-histidinol cells clones were selected and amplified. The expression of m4-1BB L was confirmed by flow cytometry. The growth curve of Hepa 1-6 cells transfected with mMIP-1α and m4-1BBL alone or together was drawn and compared. C57B/L Mice were randomly divided into 7 groups, 9 mice in each group, injected with mMIP-1α+m4-1BB L Hepa 1-6 cells, m4-1BB L Hepa 1-6 cells, mMIP-1α Hepa 1-6 cells, Hepa 1-6 cells, pLXSHD Hepa 1-6 cells or PBS respectively. The tumorigenicity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells and the mice survival rate were compared between each groups. Results Hepa 1-6 mMIP-1α+m4-1BB L cells which expressed both mMIP-1α and m4-1BB L were successfully established. The expression of mMIP-1α and m4-1BB L alone or together did not affect the growth curve of Hepa 1-6 cells. Observed for 5 weeks, no tumor developed in Hepa 1-6 mMIP-1α+m4-1BB L injected mice. The tumorigenicity of Hepa 1-6 mMIP-1α+m4-1BB L was lower than that of Hepa 1-6 mMIP-1α or Hepa 1-6 m4-1BB L in vivo. The survival rate of Hepa 1-6 mMIP-1α+m4-1BBL injected mice(9/9) was higher than that of Hepa 1-6 m4-1BB L injected mice (6/9)or Hepa 1-6 mMIP-1α injected mice (1/9). Conclusion Chemokine MIP-1α combined with costimulatory 4-1BB L lowered the tumorigenicity of hepatocellular carcinoma cells in vivo, and prolonged the mice survival period.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of expression of the CD20 in 96 adults B-lineage acute lyrnphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Methods The CD20 expression of 96 acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients were determined by flow cytometry. The characteristics ,examination results and outcome were analyzed retrospectively. Results Out of the 96 patients, there were 29 (30.20 %) patients with CD20positive and 67 (69.79 %) patients with CD20 negative. The distribution of age, infiltration of liver, spleen, and lymphnodes, the expression of myeloid lineage marker, the incidence of Ph chromosome and bcr-abl fusion gene and the complete remission rate within 4 weeks between CD20 positive and negative groups showed no significant differences (P > 0.05). The relapse rate and 3 year over survival rate of adults B-ALL in CD20 positive and negative groups were 54.55 % and 14.80 %, 29.63 % and 37.30 % respectively with a significant differences (x2 = 0.42, 5.31, P< 0.05). Conclusion The expression of CD20 in adult B-ALL appears to be not associated with clinical features and CD20 expression in adult B-ALL cells appears to be associated with poor prognosis.

Objective: To investigate the effects of andrographolide on extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) signaling pathway and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated macrophages. Methods: LPS-activated mouse peritoneal macrophages were cultured in media with different concentrations of andrographolide. Cytotoxicity of andrographolide was detected by cell counting kit-8. The macrophages were lysed, and then expressions of phosphorylated ERK1/2, JNK and p38 and nuclear factor-κB inhibitor (IκBα) protein were detected by Western blotting and TNF-α mRNA expression was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Supernatants of the macrophages were used to detect content of TNF-α protein by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: Andrographolide at 1-100 μg/mL showed no cytotoxicity on LPS-activated mouse peritoneal macrophages. Andrographolide inhibited ERK1/2 phosphorylation in LPS-activated murine peritoneal macrophages, which was concentration-dependent (P<0.01). Andrographolide at 1-25 μg/mL had no effects on phosphorylation levels of JNK and p38 and IκBα degradation in LPS-stimulated mouse peritoneal macrophages. In activated macrophages, TNF-α expression was inhibited by 12 μg/mL andrographolide and 20 μmol/L PD98059 (inhibitor of ERK1/2 signaling pathway) at both mRNA expression and protein secretion levels. Conclusion: In LPS-activated macrophages, andrographolide may inhibit the expression of TNF-α by inhibiting ERK1/2 signaling pathway.

Objective To study the outcomes of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) with single-stage total corpus callosotomy combined with different resective surgeries. Methods Nine LGS patients, admitted to our hospital from May 2010 to May 2014, were chosen in our study. Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. According to the results of anatomy, electrophysiology and clinical comprehensive evaluation, all the 9 children received single-stage total corpus callosotomy combined with different resective operations. The differences of epileptic seizures of these children before and after surgery were compared. Results The 9 LGS children were followed up for 2 years;5 achieved Engel grade I, 3 achieved Engel grade II, and one achieved Engel grade III. The surgical effective rate was 88.9% (8/9). The frequencies of drop seizures, convulsive seizures, tonic seizures and tonic-clonic seizures were decreased of different degrees, with drop seizures enjoying the best control. Three patients had transient silence, remarkable relief one week after surgery and total recovery half year after surgery. Conclusion Early single-stage total corpus callosotomy combined with different resective operations can help to control seizures in children with intractable LGS.
