Objective To investigate the efficacy and mechanism of the combination of cryoablation and Yangfei establish the Lewis lung cancer mouse model,and randomly divided into model group,cryoablation group,cryoablation+cisplatin group,cryoablation+Yangfei Prescription low-,medium-and high-dosage groups,with 5 mice in each group.Sham-operation was performed in the model group,cryoablation+cisplatin group were given intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin 3 mg/kg after cryoablation,cryoablation+Yangfei Prescription low-,medium-and high-dosage groups were given 1.64,3.28,6.56 g/kg Yangfei Prescription by gavage after cryoablation respectively,and the model group was given equal volume of normal saline by gavage for 14 consecutive days.Tumor volume and tumor mass were measured,the morphology of tumor tissue was observed by HE staining,the expression of Ki-67 protein in tumor tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry.The differentially expressed genes in tumor tissues after cryoablation combined with Yangfei Prescription intervention were analyzed by whole transcriptome sequencing,GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed on differentially expressed genes,and the lncRNA/circNA-mediated ceRNA network was constructed.Differentially expressed genes were verified using RT-qPCR.Results The main active components of Yangfei Prescription were terpenoids,flavonoids and aldehydes.Compared with the model group,tumor volume and tumor mass decreased(P<0.05)in cryoablation+Yangfei Prescription low-,medium-and high-dosage groups and cryoablation+cisplatin group;cryoablation combined with Yangfei Prescription could destroy the structure of tumor tissue and inhibit cell proliferation(P<0.05).A total of 1 585 differentially expressed genes(1 160 mRNA,225 lncRNA,155 miRNA and 45 circRNA)of the model group and cryoablation+Yangfei Prescription high-doseage group were obtained.GO enrichment analysis mainly involved biological processes such as immune system response and cell proliferation,cellular components such as protein complex and cell junction,molecular functions such as transcription regulator activity and molecular function regulator;KEGG pathway enrichment mainly occurred in cancer-related pathways such as PI3K-Akt signaling pathway,Th17 cell differentiation,mTOR signaling pathway,FOXO signaling pathway,etc.The lncRNA-mediated ceRNA network was composed of 97 lncRNA,73 miRNA and 417 mRNA,and the circRNA-mediated ceRNA network was composed of 26 circRNA,68 miRNA and 157 mRNA.RT-qPCR validated the expressions of 15 differentially expressed genes,which was consistent with the sequencing results.Conclusion Cryoablation combined with Yangfei Prescription can inhibit the tumor growth of Lewis lung cancer bearing mice,destroy the structure of tumor tissue,inhibit cell proliferation,the mechanism may be related to the regulation of Gm38393/miRNA-136-5p/Zfp704 axis.

Objective: To explore the effect of cryoablation on apoptosis of lung adenocarcinoma cells. Methods: According to the district in the tumor following cryoablation, human lung adenocarcinoma H1299 cells were divided into four groups to construct the freezing model of lung cancer in cell level: group A, untreated cells, as the control group. In group B, the necrotic solution was added to the untreated cell culture medium(the cell suspension was frozen in a liquid nitrogen tank for 5 min, and centrifuged to obtain the supernatant after rewarming at 37 ℃).Group C, sublethal cells(cells were frozen at-80 ℃ for 7 min to mimic sublethal state). In group D, necrotic solution was added into sublethal cell culture medium. Cell apoptosis was observed by flow cytometry analysis 24 h later. The expression of apoptosis related molecules Bax and Bcl-2 was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Lewis lung adenocarcinoma cell line was used to establish subcutaneous transplanted tumor model of C57 BL/6 mice. The successful model mice were randomly divided into two groups: sham operation group and argon-helium cryoablation group, with 4 mice in each group. After argon-helium cryoablation for 14 days, the tumor tissues were taken. The expression of apoptosis-related molecules Bax and Bcl-2 was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. Results: In the cell freezing model, compared with group A in the control group B,C and D groups could promote cell apoptosis(P<0.05), and group D had the highest apoptosis rate, which was significantly higher than other groups(P<0.05). Bothin vitroandin vivoexperiments showed that cryoablation could increase the expression of Bax mRNA and protein(P<0.05). Bcl-2 mRNA and protein expression decreasedin vivo(P<0.05). There was no significant change in the in cell freezing model. Conclusion Cryoablation can achieve effective ablation through cell apoptosis mechanism, which may be related to the reduction of Bcl-2/Bax.
