Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(12):923-926
Genetic polymorphisms are thought to be associated with the individual difference in the esophageal cancer treatment.A large number of evidences show that 5-FU and cisplatin metabolism,apoptosis and angiogenesis related gene SNPs are associated with the therapeutic sensitivity of esophageal cancer.

BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis(RA) is an autoallergic disease,but its immunological pathogenesis has not been completely known. T lymphocytes, especially CD4+ TH1/TH2 cells, may have an important effect in the occurrence and development of RA.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the action of CD4+ TH1 and TH2 cells which separately mediate cellular immunity and humoral immunologic response (respectively) function in the occurrence and development of RA.DESIGN: Case-control, comparative observation.SETTING: Department of Immunology, Medical College of Chinese People's Armed Police Forces.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 15 patients with RA hospitalized in the Department of Internal Medicine of General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University between March 1999 and March 2000 were selected for a RA patient group, consisting of 2 males and 13 females. Of them, 12 patients whose serumal rheumatoid factor (RF)was positive and the three others' was negative. At the same time, 30 healthy individuals from persons receiving health examination in the hospital or from our department were selected for a healthy control group, consisting of 4 males and 26 females. Informed consents were obtained from the participants.peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) from the two groups of subjects were detected by enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISPOT). 200-500 lymphocytes were counted under a normal light microscope, and the perwhich secreted cytokines were detected by ELISPOT, and those which had red spots in their plasma after staining were positive cells. Among them,the cells secreting γ-interferon (IFN-γ) were Tm cells while those secreting interleukin-4 (IL-4) were TH2 cells. 200-500 lymphocytes were counted under a normal light microscope and the percentages of TH1 and TH2 cells square test were used for comparing statistical differences of data between the two groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Quantitative analysis of T lymphocyte subsets (including CD3+ T cells, CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells) and CD4+ TH1/TH2 cells in peripheral blood from the two groups of subjects.RESULTS: Analysis of the results was from the study on all of subjects percentages of total T cells (CD3+ T cells), CD4+T cells and CD8+F cells in peripheral blood were not significantly different between the two significantly higher in RA patient group than that in healthy control group [(24.44±5.25)%, (14.93±3.82)%, P < 0.05],while in RA patient group the percentage of TH2 cells and ratio of TH1 cells to TH2 cells from peripheral blood were not significantly different as compared with those of control group(P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Cellular immunologic function mediated by TH1 cells may be associated with the occurrence and development of RA.

Objectives To investigate the effects of matrine on the proliferation and apoptosis of SK-NEP-1 cells in vitro, and its possible mechanism. Methods Trials were divided into following groups:control group, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5mg/ml of ma-trine intervention groups. The inhibition rate of SK-NEP-1 cells treated with different concentration of Matrine was detected by MTT colorimetric assay. Apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry (FCM). RT-PCR analysis was employed to measure the PDCD4 mRNA expression. Results Matrine (final concentrations=0.5, 1.0 and 1.5mg/ml) could induce apoptosis and inhibit the growth of SK-NEP-1 cells. Compared with the controls without matrine treatment (8.81±3.71)%, the inhibition rates of SK-NEP-1 cells were (20.79 ± 6.20)%, (31.25 ± 5.07)%, and (51.15 ± 12.70)%, respectively;the apoptotic rates of SK-NEP-1 cells treated with different concentration of matrine were (13.67±0.78)%,(17.43±1.65)%and (20.80±1.54)%, respectively. Significant difference in the inhibition and apoptotic rates of SK-NEP-1 cells between each drug group and control group was observed(P<0.05), and the inhibition and apoptotic rates of SK-NEP-1 cells increased gradually with increased matrine concentration, thus exhibiting a dose-dependent effect(P<0.05). To the expression of CXCR4 mRNA,the grey levels of SK-NEP-1 cells treated with matrine intervention group (final concentrations=0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 mg/ml) were (0.720 ± 0.058), (0.540 ± 0.095) and (0.307 ± 0.050), respectively. The mRNA expression of CXCR4 was seen in SK-NEP-1 cells. Compared with control group, the expres-sion of CXCR4 mRNA was decreased significantly in matrine intervention group (P<0.01).There were significant difference in CXCR4 mRNA level among the SK-NEP-1 cells treated with 0.5,1.0,1.5mg/mL of matrine (P<0.01). Conclusions Matrine could induce apoptosis and inhibit the growth of SK-NEP-1 cells in a dose-dependent way which may be associated with the down-regulated CXCR4 expression in SK-NEP-1 cells.

Variants of gene loci on susceptibility genes are the major individual susceptibility factors of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in China.Some of the gene loci participate in the DNA damage and repair,and some are related with cancer suppressor genes,metabolism enzymes,trace elements and smoking.The single nucleotide polymorphisms of these susceptibility genes are closely correlated with the genesis of ESCC.

Objective To detect the expressions of microRNA-126 (miR-126) and microRNA-7 (miR-7) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and to analyze their correlations with clinicopathologic features and prognosis of ESCC.Methods The expressions of miR-126 and miR-7 in 116 ESCC samples and matched normal tissue samples were detected by real-time PCR.Statistical analysis was used to find the relationships among the expressions of miR-126 and miR-7,pathological characteristics and prognosis.Results Low expression,normal expression and high expression of miR-126 were found in 73 (62.9%),35 (30.2%) and 8 (6.9%) carcinoma samples respectively.Low expression,normal expression and high expression of miR-7 were found in 52 (44.8%),35 (30.2%) and 29 (25.0%) carcinoma samples respectively.The disease-free survival in patients with low expression of miR-126 and miR-7 was shorter than that in patients with non-low expression (x2 =4.268,P <0.05 ; x2 =4.993,P <0.05).The low expression of miR-126 was correlated with tumor location,family history and drinking (x2 =14.564,P < 0.05 ; x2 =5.691,P < 0.05 ; x2 =4.971,P < 0.05),but was uncorrelated with gender,age,diferentiation,infiltration,lymphatic metastasis and smoking (all P > 0.05).The low expression of miR-7 was uncorrelated with pathological characteristics of ESCC (all P > 0.05).Conclusion The low expressions of miR-126 and miR-7 may be related to the prognosis of patients with ESCC,and have a certain clinical detection significance.

miRNAs are endogenous short RNA molecules widely distributed in eukaryotic organisms.They are closely related to tumor development. One good example is miR-21. It is overexpressed in a variety of tumor tissues, suggesting that miR-21 may have significant carcinogenic activities and act as a oncogene.Many studies confirm that overexpression of miR-21 has great indication in the development, diagnosis, biological treatment and prognosis of gastrointestinal cancer.

Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(4):243-245
hMSH6 is one of the most important members in the mismatch repair family. Its polymorphism is closely related to the pathogenesis and development of neoplasm, particularly in colorectal cancer and endometrial cancer. Moreover, it has been suggested to play a more important role in endometrial cancer compared with hMLH1 and hMSH2.
