To improve the targeting of adenovirus vector for gene therapy, a fusion gene sCAR-EGF, in which epidermal growth factor gene was fused to the 3' end of extracellular Coxsackie virus-adenovirus receptor gene, was constructed and cloned into shuttle plasmid pDC315 to obtain a recombinant plasmid pDC315-sCAR-EGF. With the AdMax system, AD-293 cells were co-transfected with pDC315-sCAR-EGF and adenovirus genomic plasmid pBHGloxdeltaE13cre. Through high efficiency site specific recombination, a replication-defective adenovirus Ad5-CMV-sCAR-EGF was constructed. The recombinant adenovirus was analyzed by PCR and Western blotting, the results indicated that Ad5-CMV-sCAR-EGF contained the fusion gene sCAR-EGF, and the adenovirus infected cells was induced to produce and secrete the fusion protein into the supernatant. We have demonstrated that the fusion protein sCAR-EGF is helpful for elevating the infection efficiency of Ad5-CMV-luc with the reporter gene in vitro, which providing a new approach to the gene therapy for tumors overexpressing EGFR.

Objective:To explore the clinical value of introducing 68Ga PSMA PET / CT into the prostate cancer(PCa)screening clinic, and to analyze the incidence rate and biopsy of PCa in the screening clinic of our hospital. Methods:The data of the people who participated in PCa screening in the urology screening clinic of our hospital from March 2021 to November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Serum PSA was used as the screening index. The subjects with PSA≥4ng/ml were first examined by mpMRI to find suspicious nodules, and the positive ones were further examined by 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT to determine the lesions.The puncture target was outlined, and systematic+ targeted puncture was conducted under ultrasound guidance. The age, PSA distribution, puncture detection rate, Gleason score and clinical stage of patients with PCa were recorded. Results:A total of 1 079 subjects were included in the screening, with an average age of (63.9±9.9)(ranging 40-92) years old, and 249 patients (23.1%, 249/1 079) with PSA≥4ng/ml. Among them, 87 cases (87/249, 34.9%) received mpMRI, and 34 cases (34/249, 13.7%) had PI-RADS score ≥3 points. These 34 patients with suspected nodules on MRI were further scanned with 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT, and 11 cases (11/249, 4.4%) had abnormal uptake of PSMA nuclide. A total of 32 patients (12 patients with PSA abnormalities and 20 patients with positive imaging) finally received prostate biopsy, and 11 patients were diagnosed with PCa, with a positive detection rate of 34.4% (11/32), accounting for 1.0% (11/1 079) of the screening population. Among them, 20 patients with positive imaging (9 patients with only mpMRI positive and 11 patients with both mpMRI and 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT positive) underwent system + targeted fusion biopsy, and the positive rate was 45% (9/20). 12 patients (only PSA abnormal) underwent routine systematic puncture biopsy, and the positive detection rate was 16.7% (2/12). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Among the patients with confirmed PCa, 27.3% (3/11) had Gleason score less than 7, and 72.7% (8/11) had Gleason score≥7. Localized PCa (≤T 2) accounted for 45.4% (5/11), local progression (T 3-T 4) accounted for 18.2% (2/11), and metastatic PCa suggested by 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT accounted for 36.4% (4/11), including 3 systemic multiple bone metastases and one bone metastasis with distant lymph node metastasis. Clinically significant PCa accounted for 90.9% (10/11) of the confirmed patients, and the proportion of high-risk patients in localized or locally advanced PCa was 71.4% (5/7). Conclusions:In PCa screening, if 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT is introduced on the basis of conventional mpMRI, the detection rate of clinically meaningful PCa can be improved. Combined with targeted puncture, tumor lesions can be found early and the screening efficiency of PCa can be improved. In this study, the detection rate of PCa in outpatient screening reached 1.0%. In confirmed cases, the proportion of high-risk patients and metastatic patients was higher.

Objective To investigate the radiosensitizing effect and its mechanism of 3-MA in human hypopharynx cancer cells.Methods Fadu cells were treated with 5 mmol/L of 3-MA combined with 2 Gy or 4 Gy of X-ray and cell cloning efficiency and DNA lesion severity (tail moment) were examined by clonogenic survival assay and comet assay.Cell cycle distributions of Fadu cells treated with different doses of 3-MA(1,2,5,10 mmol/L) were detected by flow cytometer.The expressions of p62 and cyclin B1 were examined by western blot.Results The cloning efficiency and DNA lesion severity of cells treated with 3-MA alone showed no notable changes.However,3-MA enhanced significantly the inhibitory effects of X-ray (2 Gy or 4 Gy) on cloning efficiency of the cells (t =13.41 or 13.98,P < 0.001),and the cells showed more serious DNA damages (t =7.07 or 6.91,P < 0.001).The mean G2/M percentages of control cells and the cells treated with 1,2,5,10 mmol/L of 3-MA were (17.10 ± 1.20) %,(23.30 ± 2.3) %,(39.90 ± 3.12)%,(58.47 ± 1.65)% and (76.13 ± 3.51)%,respectively,and differences among groups were statistically significant(F =278.4,P < 0.05).The expression of p62 in cells treated with 3-MA showed a dose-dependent increase,while cyclin B1 showed a dose-dependent decrease.Conclusion The autophagy inhibitor 3-MA could enhance radiosensitivity of human hypopharynx cancer cells by inducing G2/M arrest and enhancing irradiation-induced DNA damage.

Objective:To investigate potential effective components of traditional Chinese medicine and their molecular mechanisms of action in the anti-angiogenic treatment of Kaposi′s sarcoma based on network pharmacology, and to predict key targets and signal pathways in the anti-angiogenic treatment of Kaposi′s sarcoma with traditional Chinese medicine.Methods:According to the previous network pharmacology-based analysis results, main chemical components and targets of Rhizoma Polygoni Cuspidati, Cortex Mori, Rhizoma Smilacis Glabrae and Fructus Perillae were obtained by using the traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform (TCMSP); potential therapeutic targets for angiogenesis and Kaposi′s sarcoma were obtained by searching the GeneCard, OMIM, DrugBank and TTD databases, and a Venn diagram was constructed to obtain targets for the interaction between Kaposi′s sarcoma and anti-angiogenic drug components; a protein-protein interaction model was constructed using the STRING 11.5 platform; the Cytoscape 3.6.0 software was used to construct the component-target visual network. Meanwhile, the Metascape platform was used to analyze the Gene Ontology (GO) functions and the enrichment of Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) -based pathways. The main active ingredients and core targets obtained through the above analyses were then verified by molecular docking. Results:The core components of anti-Kaposi′s sarcoma angiogenesis drugs were resveratrol (degree: 142), quercetin (degree: 141), kaempferol (degree: 56), luteolin (degree: 56), β-sitosterol (degree: 37), arachidonic acid (degree: 36), naringenin (degree: 36), etc., and the core target was prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2). KEGG analysis revealed that the cancer signaling pathways were the important pathways related to the inhibiton of angiogenesis in Kaposi′s sarcoma; functional enrichment analysis showed that the positive regulation of cell migration was the most significantly enriched GO term in the biological process category. Molecular docking results showed that resveratrol, quercetin, kaempferol and luteolin had good affinity with PTGS2, especially quercetin and luteolin exhibited the strongest binding abilities to PTGS2, with the binding energies being -9.4 and -9.5 kcal/mol, respectively.Conclusion:This study showed that the 4 traditional Chinese medicines recorded in TCMSP (including Rhizoma Polygoni Cuspidati., Cortex Mori, Rhizoma Smilacis Glabrae and Fructus Perillae) may play an anti-angiogenic role by regulating cancer signaling pathways and acting on targets such as PTGS2, and predicted the possible anti-angiogenesis mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicines in Kaposi′s sarcoma.
