1.The role of radiotherapy in nipple-areola complex-sparing mastectomy for patients with breast cancer
China Oncology 2016;26(5):378-382
The technique of nipple-areola complex (NAC)-sparing mastectomy (NSM) facilitates the breast reconstruction due to preserving the skin and NAC of breast in the treatment of breast cancer. Key issues still remain controversial in NSM, in terms of the role of radiotherapy combined with NSM and sequence of radiotherapy and NSM, which arise from the consideration of the oncology safety. Some investigations addressed that post-NSM external beam irradiation and intra-operative radiotherapy (IORT) combined with NSM could reduce the local recurrence rate. Based on the appropriate patient selection and good quality of surgery, radiotherapy would be applied in different strategies of combination with NSM according to the risk of local recurrence of the cancer.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether miR-25 targets KLF4 to regulate the growth of gastric cancer cells and lucidate the mechanism of miR-25 producing functional effects in gastric cancer cells. Methods The expression levels of miR-25 and KLF4 were detected by qRT-PCR in 35 pairs of gastric cancer tissues of patients. Target genes of miR-25 were predicted using Targetscan and verified though dual luciferase activity assay and west-ern blot. MTT assay and clone formation assay were detected after downregulated miR-25 and overexpressed KLF4 respectively. Results miR-25 was highly expressed in gastric cancer tissues with KLF4 downexpresstion. Downreg-ulated miR-25 and overexpressed KLF4 respectively can significantly reduce the proliferation of gastric cancer cells,the results were opposite when overexpression of KLF4. Conclusion miR-25 promotes gastric cancer cells proliferation by targeting KLF4.
