Objective:To analyze the expression and significance of circ-BCAR3 in gastric cancer tissues, and to explore the effect and molecular mechanism of silencing circ-BCAR3 on the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cells. Methods:The expression of circ-BCAR3 in gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues was analyzed using the UCSC database. The relationship between circ-BCAR3 expression and the survival rate of gastric cancer patients was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-negative control (si-NC) and si-circ-BCAR3 were transfected into gastric cancer BGC823 cells, and recorded as si-circ-BCAR3 group and si-NC group, respectively. Real-time reverse transcription-PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of circ-BCAR3 gene in gastric cancer NCI-N87, AGS, BGC823, HS-746T, SGC7901 cells, and immortalized gastric mucosal epithelial GES-1 cells. The proliferation and invasion abilities of BGC823 cells were detected by clone formation assay and Transwell assay, respectively. The binding sites of circ-BCAR3 and miR-145-5p were predicted using the online Circinteractome platform, and their targeting relationship was verified by a dual luciferase reporter gene assay. The relationship between the expression of circ-BCAR3 and miR-145-5p in gastric cancer tissues was analyzed using the UCSC database. The expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) signaling pathway proteins, including phosphorylated VEGFR-2 (p-VEGFR-2), phosphorylated phospholipase C-λ (p-PLC-λ), phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (p-Erk), and phosphorylated P38 (p-P38), were detected in BGC823 cells using Western blotting analysis. Results:The relative expression level of circ-BCAR3 in gastric cancer tissues (8.04±2.34) was significantly higher than that in adjacent normal tissues (2.53±1.74), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). The survival rate of gastric cancer patients with low circ-BCAR3 expression was higher than that of gastric cancer patients with high circ-BCAR3 expression, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The relative expression levels of circ-BCAR3 in NCI-N87, HS-746T, AGS, BGC823, and SGC7901 cells (5.05±0.36, 3.50±0.21, 2.87±0.38, 6.80±0.29, and 3.77±0.53) were all higher than those in GES-1 cells (1.02±0.21), and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). The number of clones formed in the si-NC group and si-circ-BCAR3 group were [(126.70±21.78) and (44.89±8.33) unit], respectively, and the number of invasive cells were [(53.81±5.92) and (24.91±4.56) unit], respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The AACUGGA sequence in circ-BCAR3 was found to have the capacity to bind to the UUGACCU sequence in miR-145-5p. The luciferase activity of wild type circ-BCAR3 (WT- circ-BCAR3)+ miR-145-5p group (0.26±0.03) was lower than that of WT- circ-BCAR3+miR-NC group (1.00±0.05), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). In contrast, for the miR-NC, the luciferase activities of the mutant- circ-BCAR3 (MUT- circ-BCAR3)+ miR-145-5p and MUT- circ-BCAR3+ miR-NC groups were (1.07±0.12) and (1.00±0.09), and the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The expression of circ-BCAR3 and miR-145-5p showed a negative correlation in gastric cancer tissues ( R=0.82, P<0.01). The relative expression levels of VEGFR-2 signaling pathway proteins p-VEGFR-2, p-PLC-λ, p-Erk, and p-P38 in BGC823 cells in the si-circ-BCAR3 group (1.08±0.21, 1.50±0.21, 3.01±0.25, and 0.46±0.10) were lower than those in the si-NC group (5.22±0.17, 5.56±0.19, 6.63±0.31, and 4.24±0.16), and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The expression of circ-BCAR3 is elevated in gastric cancer tissues and cells. Furthermore, silencing of circ-BCAR3 may inhibit the proliferation and invasion of BGC823 cells by regulating the miR-145-5p/VEGFR-2 signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of free superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap (SCIAPF) in reconstruction of soft tissue defects of hand and foot in children.Methods:From August 2021 to August 2023, free SCIAPFs were used to reconstruct soft tissue defects of hands and feet in 8 children at the Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, Zhoukou Huaihai Hospital. There were 6 boys and 2 girls aged between 2 and 7 years old. The sites of soft tissue defect were: 1 of metacarpophalangeal joint in the functional area of left thumb, 2 of dorsal right hand, 1 of dorsal left foot, 2 of medial malleolus of right foot, and 2 of right forefoot, and all were accompanied with tendon and bone exposure. The size of soft tissue defects ranged from 2.5 cm×3.0 cm to 6.0 cm×3.5 cm. After emergency debridement, the children received flap transfers, the flaps sized from 3.0 cm×3.5 cm to 7.0 cm×4.0 cm. Donor sites were closed by running intradermal suture. All children were included in the scheduled postoperative follow-up by visit of outpatient clinic, WeChat interviews and home visits to observe the appearance, colour, texture and sensation of the flaps, the functional recovery of the affected hands and feet, as well as the healing of donor sites.Results:After surgery, all 8 flaps survived beside 1 had a partial necrosis at the edge and healed with a scab after dressing change. Flap donor sites healed in one stage. Scheduled postoperative follow-up lasted from 7 to 22 months, with an average of 10 months. The flaps presented a slightly bloated appearance, soft texture with a restored protective sensation and satisfactory functional recovery of hands and feet. Linear scars were left at the donor sites. According to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, 1 child was of excellent and 2 children of good in hand function of the 3 children with hand injury. The Maryland Foot Score revealed 3 children were of excellent and 2 of good in foot function of the 5 children with foot injury.Conclusion:Free SCIAPF is an ideal option for reconstruction of soft tissue defects of hand and foot in children, with concealed donor site, convenient flap harvesting, fewer complications and satisfactory reconstructive effect.
