Background and purpose:This study was to investigate the effect of miRNA-486 on the growth of human colorectal cancer cell line SW620 xenograft in nude mice and to explore the possible mechanism of action. Methods:Eighteen mice were randomly divided into three groups, including the experimental group, the negative control group and the blank control group. Each group contained 6 mice. The SW620 cell line was inoculated subcutaneously into nude mice to establish the model of human colorectal cancer xenografts. Peritumoral injection of miRNA-486 overexpres-sion plasmid, or blank vector and PBS were performed every 3 days. The volumes of subcutaneous tumors in each group of inoculated mice were compared. Then mice were sacrificed 3 weeks after infection. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to measure the expression of neuropilin-2 (NRP2).Results:The growth rate of tumors in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the negative control group and the blank control group. After 21 days, the size of transplanted tumors in the experimental group nude mice was (0.32±0.12) cm3, that in the negative control group was (0.77±0.31) cm3, and that in blank control group was (0.82±0.18) cm3. Tumor mass in the experimental group was sig-nificantly smaller than that in the other two groups (P=0.006<0.05). Tumor mass in the experimental group was (0.40±0.08) g, significantly smaller than that in the negative control group (0.75±0.18) g and in the blank control group (0.79±0.18) g (P=0.008<0.05). Compared with the expression of NRP2 in other groups, the growth of tumor in the experimental group de-clined (P=0.000<0.05).Conclusion:Colorectal cancer cell line SW620 xenografted tumor in nude mice can be suppressed after injection of miR-486, which may decrease the expression of NRP2.

Interstitial lung disease represents a group of diffuse pulmonary diseases that mainly affects pulmonary mesenchyme and alveolar spaces,resulting in loss of alveolar-capillary functions.It is also a common complication or an important factor that influences the prognosis of rheumatoid arthritis,dermatomyositis,systemic sclerosis.Searching for the biomarkers for the early diagnosis of the disease and/or indicative of the activity of the condition has been a subject of active investigations.KL-6,expressed on type Ⅱ pneumocytes,is seen as the most promising biomarker for the diagnosis of the disease.This review summarizes the recent researches about the use of KL-6 in the diagnosis and treatment of interstitial lung disease.

Epilepsy is one of the most common diseases of the central nervous system, affecting tens of millions of people around the world. Most of clinically used antiepileptic drugs are based on ion mechanism to antagonize epileptic seizures, targeted to various ion channels or ion channel receptors. However, with the in-depth research on the pathogenesis of epilepsy, the non-ionic antiepileptic mechanism has increasingly become the key to the control of various intractable epilepsy, and the relevant drugs have gradually achieved clinical transformation. In this paper, non-ionic antiepileptic mechanisms are classified to clinical and preclinical types according to whether clinical transformation has been achieved. The application of non-ionic antiepileptic drugs in refractory epilepsy was mainly introduced, including everolimus, cannabidiol, fenfluramine, padsevonil, medium chain triglyceride modified ketogenic diet, and anakinra. Additionally, some preclinical non-ionic antiepileptic mechanisms such as prostaglandin, adenosine, metabolic glutamate receptor and mitochondrial mechanism are briefly introduced. The authors believe that the current stage of ionic antiepileptic drugs research has reached the bottleneck of transformation and it is difficult to achieve a major breakthrough in the mechanism, but there are broader research prospects in non-ionic antiepileptic mechanisms because a large number of them have not yet been clinically transformed. From a deeper perspective, some non-ionic antiepileptic mechanisms may have been involved in the fundamental mechanism of epileptogenesis, and they may be the prospect for the future treatment of refractory epilepsy.

Objective To investigate the effect of AlkB homologue 5 ( ALKBH5 ) on proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis of HepG2 and L-02 cells.Methods Recombinant plasmid vector containing the CDS region of ALKBH5 (pEGFP-C1b-ALKBH5) was stably transfected into HepG2 and L-02 cells.Western blotting was used to detect the expression of green fluonescence protein ( GFP )-ALKBH5.There were two groups in our experiment: GFP-ALKBH5 lentivirus group and GFP lentivirus group.Characteristics, such as proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis of HepG2 and L-02,were detected through Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, flow cytometry and clone formation, respectively.Results The result of Western blotting revealed that ALKBH5 was efficiently up-regulated at protein levels.Despite apoptosis, phenotypic analysis revealed that the proliferation and cell phases were significantly inhibited in ALKBH5 overexpressed stable cell strains compared with the control cells (both P<0.05).Conclusion ALKBH5 can restrain fetal liver cell (L-02) and hepatocellular carcinoma cell (HepG2) from proliferating.Taken together, our results strongly suggest that ALKBH5 can play a key role in the generation and progression in HCC as a tumor suppressor.

OBJECTIVETo clarify the related factors of marginal bone loss (MBL) around tissue level implants in the posterior part of the mandible.

METHODSA total of 116 tissue level implants were implanted in the mandibular posterior region of 76 patients. Patients' information, including general characteristics, implant characteristics, implant site characteristics, and prosthesis characteristics, was recorded. Their cone beam computed tomography data were measured immediately after implant placement, 3 months later, and 3 and 12 months after prosthesis loading. The measurement of MBL was conducted by One Volume Viewer software. SPSS 20.0 was used for statistic analysis.

RESULTSSmoking, cortical bone thickness (CBT), collum angle (CA), and implant local sanitation showed significant differences with body mass loss (P<0.05). No significant differences were found among sex, age, length of implant, diameter of implants, implant systems, bone height, prosthesis type, and MBL (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe risk factors that caused MBL were smoking, thicker CBT, larger CA, and poor implant local sanitation. Among them, poor implant local sanitation had the highest correlation with MBL.
