Objective By investigating the effects of miR-379-5p on the proliferation,invasion and metastasis of mouse breast cancer 4T1 cells,we aimed to provide new therapeutic targets for the clinical inhibition of breast cancer proliferation,invasion,and metastasis.Methods After plasmid transfection,4T1 cells were utilized to detect the expression of miR-379-5p using fluorescence quantitative PCR.While 5-ethynyl-2'doxyuridine(EdU)cell proliferation and Transwell assays were employed to detect changes in the proliferation and invasion ability of 4T1 cells in each group.The migration ability of 4T1 cells after overexpression and knockdown of miR-379-5p was examined by scratch healing assay.A transplanted tumor model of breast cancer was established in BABL/c mice,and the effects of overexpressing miR-379-5p on tumor growth and the number and size of lung metastases were observed.Results EdU result showed that knocking down miR-379-5p enhanced the proliferation ability of the cells compared with the control group cells,and miR-379-5p overexpression reduced the capacity of breast cancer cells to proliferate(P＜0.05).Transwell and wound healing assays showed that miR-379-5p knockdown enhanced,while miR-379-5p overexpression significantly inhibited,the invasion and migratory ability of breast cancer cells(P＜0.01).An in vivo tumorigenesis experiment with BABL/c mice showed that miR-379-5p overexpression significantly slowed the tumor growth rate(P＜0.05)and inhibited lung metastasis(P＜0.01).Conclusions MiR-379-5p plays a role in tumor gene suppression in breast cancer and inhibits the proliferation,invasion,and migration of mouse breast cancer 4T1 cells.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the levels of CC chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) and periostin (POSTN) in serum and alveolar lavage fluid of patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with respiratory virus infection and lung function.Methods:From March 2020 to March 2023, 96 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD admitted to our hospital were collected. Among them, 34 patients with concurrent respiratory virus infection were included in the infected group, and 62 patients without respiratory virus infection were included in the uninfected group. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to detect the expression levels of CCL2 and POSTN in serum and alveolar lavage fluid. Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between CCL2 and POSTN levels in serum and alveolar lavage fluid of infected patients and lung function indicators.Results:The levels of CCL 2 ( t=12.633, 9.253 2, 2) and POSTN ( t=12.370, 7.383) were significantly increased in the infected group compared with the uninfected group ( P<0.05). Compared with the uninfected group, the 6-minute walking test (6 MWT), peak expiratory flow rate (peak expiratory flow, PEF), forced expiratory volume at the first second (forced expiratory volume in one second, FEV 1), and the forced lung capacity (forced vital capacity, FVC), FEV 1/FVC, and maximum middle breath mean flow rate (maximal mid-expiratory flow curve, MMEF) were significantly lower ( t=14.141, 24.165, 22.421, 21.223, 5.278, 29.456, P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the levels of CCL2 and POSTN in the serum and alveolar lavage fluid of the infected group were negatively correlated with the levels of 6MWT, PEF, FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, and MMEF ( P<0.05). Conclusions:CCL2 and POSTN levels were highly expressed in serum and alveolar lavage fluid of patients with respiratory virus infection during acute exacerbation of COPD, which were closely related to lung function.

The clinical data of 9 patients with exogenous lipid pneumonia confirmed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed. There were 4 males and 5 females, aged 57-79 years, with a history of intestinal obstruction and oral administration of liquid paraffin. The main clinical symptoms were cough, expectoration and fever (8 cases), and combined with wheezing (5 case); and crackles and rhonchi were revealed on chest auscultation in all patients. The right lung lower lobe was involved in all 9 cases, the left lower lobe, right middle and lower lobe were also involved in 6 case. The CT scan showed that infiltration (7 case) and consolidation (6 case) were the most common imaging features, followed by the septal thickening (5 case) and pleural effusion (4 case); the low density fat-like changes within the consolidative opacities was a specific feature of lipid pneumonia (3 case). The lung biopsy was performed in the target site through bronchoscope, and pathology showed the interstitial fibrous tissue hyperplasia with chronic inflammatory cell infiltration and adipocyte-like cells. Six patients were treated with glucocorticoid and repeated bronchoalveolar lavage with good response, one cases died and two cases discharged automatically. The clinical manifestation and imaging features of exogenous lipid pneumonia are lack of specificity; transbronchial lung biopsy is an effective method for the diagnosis. The repeated bronchoalveolar lavage with saline combined with medication of glucocorticoids are effective for the treatment of exogenous lipid pneumonia.

Objective To explore the clinical effects of adjuvant hyperbaric oxygen ( HBO) therapy on peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the 88 patients with peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer admitted to the hospital from August 2014 to August 2016. The patients were divided into the observation group ( n =39 ) and the control group ( n =49 ) by different treatment methods. The control group was treated with chemotherapy, while the observation group received adjuvant HBO therapy in addition to the treatment received by the control group. After 2 courses of treatment, the short-term efficacy and acute and sub-acute toxicity were compared between the patients of the 2 groups, and the life quality of the patients was evaluated by using QLQ-C30. One-year medical follow up was made, and disease progression and survival time were compared between the patients of the 2 groups. Results The objective response rate (ORR) of the observation group and the control group were 53. 85％ and 46. 94％, respectively. There was no statistical difference, when comparison was made between the 2 groups(χ2 =0. 414, P=0. 520). The digestive tract and blood toxicity scores of the observation group were (1. 08 ± 0. 26)and (1. 01 ± 0. 22) respectively, which were significantly lower than (3. 26 ± 0. 62) and (1. 67 ± 0. 41) of the control group (P<0. 05). The median disease progression time of the observation group and the control group was respectively 6 months and 3 months, and the median survival time was respectively 8. 9 months and 5. 1 months, with the observation group all being superior to those of the control group ( P < 0. 05 ). The comprehensive scores of the life quality and physical function in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion HBO adjuvant therapy for gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis has good short-term efficacy, and could slow disease progress, improve their life quality, and more importantly showed less adverse reactions.

OBJECTIVETo study the inhibitory effect of 10-gingerol on the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and the role of Src/STAT3 signaling pathway in mediating the effect.

METHODSSYBYL-X2.1 software was used to simulate the interaction between 10-gingerol and Src. HepG2 cells treated with 10-gingerol at 1, 3, 10 or μol/L for 24 h were assessed for cell viability using MTT assay, and EdU staining was used to detect the cell proliferation and calculate the number of positive cells. The expressions of p-Src and p-STAT3 were detected using Western blotting, and the mRNA expressions of the target genes of STAT3 (cyclin D1 and CMCC) were detected using qPCR.

RESULTS10-gingerol was capable of forming hydrogen bond with such Src residues as TRY-340, MET-341, MET-314, ASP-404, and ILE-336. MTT assay showed that 10-gingerol at 3 and 10 μmol/L significantly lowered the viability of HepG2 cells ( < 0.001). Treatment with 1, 3, and 10 μmol/L 10-gingerol significantly reduces the number of EdU-positive HepG 2 cells ( < 0.001). Western blotting showed that 10-gingerol at 3 and 10 μmol/L significantly decreased the phosphorylation levels of Src and STAT3 in HepG2 cells ( < 0.01). 10-gingerol at 1, 3, and 10 μmol/L significantly decreased the mRNA expressions of cyclin D1 and CMCC as shown by qPCR ( < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONS10-gingerol can dose-dependently inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells and suppress the activation of Src and STAT3.

Objective To investigate the mutations of IDH1,IDH2,p53 gene,and Ki-67 protein expression in different grade of gliomas and identify the association with its clinical relevance. Methods The mutations of IDH1,IDH2 and p53 gene were detected by direct DNA sequencing,and protein expression of Ki-67 was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. The correlations between gender,age,tumor site,differentiation degree and pathological type of patients were analyzed. Results R132H mutation of IDH1 gene was detected in 32.6% samples (14/46 cases),of which the proportion of WHO classification grade Ⅱ was 40.0%,and grade Ⅲ was 58.3%. IDH1 mutations were shown correlated with age,pathology level Ⅱ-Ⅲ,and Ki-67 low expression. p53 mutations were detected in 4 glioblastomas,with mutations located at exon 7,8. IDH1 gene mutation was negatively correlated with Ki-67 expression. Conclusions The proportion of IDH1 gene mutation in different pathological types of gliomas is different,which is the highest in gradeⅡ~Ⅲ. It is suggested that the subtypes should be listed independently by routine tests. Mutations in p53 gene are more common in primary glioblastomas and may be associated with adverse outcomes. The combined detection of DH1,p53 and Ki-67 is conducive to the diagnosis and prognosis of glioma.
