C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) and its receptor CCR2 are closely related to tumorigenesis and tumor progression. The CCL2/CCR2 signaling axis promotes tumor progression through multiple mechanisms: CCL2 binds to CCR2 on the surface of tumor cells, and thus promotes tumor growth/survival and metastasis; more importantly, CCL2 recruits a variety of immunosuppressive cells to aggregate in the tumor microenvironment, and inhibits the function and activity of immune cells, promoting tumor progression. The article reviews the CCL2/CCR2 signaling axis and its role in tumors and tumor microenvironment, with particular focus on the advances in clinical research on drugs targeting CCL2/CCR2 signaling axis, in order to gain an in-depth and overall understanding of the mechanism of action of CCL2/CCR2 axis in tumor progression and develop more effective anti-tumor immunotherapeutic agents.

AIM To assess the pharmacokinetic profile of single doses of meloxicam in healthy Chinese volunteers. METHODS The plasma concentrations of meloxicam after an oral dose of 15 mg to twenty healthy male volunteers were analized by means of a validated HPLC method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were subjected to Shapiro-Wilk test to determine whether these data were fitted to a normal distribution. RESULTS The twenty volunteers can be classified into extensive metabolizers and poor metabolizers according to pharmacokinetic parameters. The main parameters in the two groups obtained were as follows: T1/2 were 21±4 and 38±9 h, AUC0-∞ were 49±10 and 110±8 μg*h*mL-1, respectively. Even the AUC data in extensive metabolizers were 1.7 times as that reported in White volunteers following the same doses of meloxicam. CONCLUSION There were significant individual differences in the pharmacokinetics of meloxicam in Chinese volunteers, which may be due to the genetic polymorphism of CYP2C9.

Objective:To investigate the repair effects and mechanism of mesenchymal stem cell osteogenesis-derived exosomes deliver miRNA-222-5p on tendon cell injury.Methods:Mesenchymal stem cell exosomes were collected, isolated and characterized. The mice achilles tendon was collected after cutting one week later. The tendon cells were isolated and cultured to obtain a tendon cell injury model (injury group). The subjects were divided into three groups. During the process of osteogenic differentiation, mesenchymal stem cells were co-cultured with tendon cells (co-culture group). Further, miRNA-222-5p mimics were transfected into mesenchymal stem cells, the co-cultured mesenchymal stem cells and tendon cells during the process of osteogenic differentiation (miRNA-222-5p group). Clone formation and Transwell were used to detect the ability of mesenchymal stem cells to secrete exosomes and exosomes transported miRNA-222-5p to repair damaged tendon cells. qPCR, Western-blot and fluorescence staining were used to detect the expression levels of cartilage-related proteins and bone-related proteins on mRNA and protein. Western-blot was used to detect the expression of signal pathway factors.Results:The shape of the exosomes was a typical cup - like structure. The exosome proteins marker was all expressed positively ( P<0.05). After counting the colony formation and Transwell test, the number of cell communities and cell invasion were significantly increased in the co-culture group compared with those in the injury group. The number of those in miRNA-222-5p group were significantly increased compared with those in co-culture group ( P<0.05). The qPCR, Western-blot and fluorescent staining test results showed that the mRNA and protein expression levels of SOX-9, COL2A1, ACAN, BMP2, Runx2, and OPN in the co-culture group were significantly increased compared with the injury group. The mRNA and protein expression levels of the above proteins in the miRNA-222-5p group were significantly increased compared with those in co-culture group ( P<0.05). We also detected the protein expression levels of signal pathway related factors. Western-blot results showed that the expression levels of NF-κB, Erk2, STAT3, STAT5 and Smad2 in the co-culture group were significantly increased compared with those in the injury group. The expression levels of the above factors in the miRNA-222-5p group were significant increased compared with the co-culture group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The co-culture of mesenchymal stem cells and achilles tendon cells could promote the osteogenic differentiation of achilles tendon cells. Exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells could further promote the osteogenic differentiation of achilles tendon cells by transporting miRNA-222-5p. The mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of signal pathway factors in injured tendons, including NF-κB, Erk2, STAT3, STAT5 and Smad2.

Objective To determine whether fetal rats exposure to isoflurane will cause postnatal learning and memory deficits,and change Bcl-2/Bax ratio in the hippocampus CA1 and retrosplenial cortex in fetal brain of rats. Methods Twenty-eight Sprague Dawley pregnant rats at gestation day 21 (E21) were randomly divided into isoflurane treatment group(n=14) and sham control group(n=14). Rats in isoflurane treatment group were ex-posed to 1.3% isoflurane in a carrying gas of 30% oxygen, balance nitrogen for 6 h in a warmed, humidified cham-ber. For sham control group,animals were treated at the same condition with only carrying gas. In behavior study,the spatial learning and memory ability at juvenile ages was determined with the Morris Water Maze(MWM). In immunohistochemistry study,changes of Bcl-2 and Bax expression in hippocampus CA1 and retrosplenial cortex in the fetus brain after isoflurane treatment at 2 hours was performed by using immunofluorecence staining.Results In the MWM training, the escape latency to platform in the place trials showed no significant difference between the two groups,but the postnatal rats in 1.3% isoflurane group showed obviously improved retention of memory by spending more percentage of time swimming in the probe quadrant as compared to the control animals ((42.33±2.31) s vs (33.2±2.15) s, t=2.21, P<0.05) in the probe test. Compared to controls, 1.3% isoflu-rane exposure for 6 h to the pregnant rats increased the intensity of Bcl-2, decreased the intensity of Bax, and sig-nificantly increased the Bcl-2/Bax ratio in the fetal hippocampal CA1 region (4.40±0. 86 vs 1.31±0.32, t=3. 378, P<0.01) and the fetal retrosplenial cortex (5.07±1.27 vs 1.47±0.48, t=2.656, P < 0.05) respec-tively. Conclusion 1.3% isoflurane exposure in pregnant rats significantly improves the spatial retention memo-ry of their rat pups at a juvenile age and increases the Bcl-2/Bax ratio in the hippocampal CA1 region and the ret-resplenial cortex in the fetal rat brains.
