Objective:To explore the effect of the mucin modulator Talniflumate (Tal) on breast cancer cells and its synergistic effect after combined with the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel (PTX).Methods:The breast cancer cells were cultured in vitro. Lymphocyte proliferation activity assay (MTS) was used to detect the effects of different concentrations of Talniflumate alone and paclitaxel on the survival rate of breast cancer cells. The effects of the above drugs on the apoptosis of breast cancer cells were detected by flow cytometry. Western blot was used to detect the expression of glucosamine transferase (GCNT3) (the target of Talniflumate) in breast cancer cells before and after the treatment with Talniflumate. Transcriptome sequencing clarified the changes in related signaling pathways after treatment with Talniflumate. Results:Talniflumate promoted the apoptosis of breast cancer cells MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. The combination of Talniflumate and paclitaxel had a significant synergistic killing effect in MCF7 cells but not MDA-MB-231 cells. Western blot indicated that GCNT3 was highly expressed in MCF7 cells, while almost no expression in MDA-MB-231 cells; Talniflumate could reduce the expression of GCNT3 in MCF7 cells and after combined with paclitaxel, the expression of GCNT3 was downregulated more significantly. Transcriptome sequencing suggested that Talniflumate can regulate the expression of multiple signaling pathways such as TNF, p53, and SNARE.Conclusions:Talniflumate could induce apoptosis of breast cancer cell. Talniflumate combined with paclitaxel has a significant synergistic effect in killing tumor cells in breast cancer cells with high GCNT3 expression such as MCF7. The mechanism of Talniflumate induce apoptosis of breast cancer cells may be related to multiple signaling pathways such as TNF, p53, and SNARE.

Objective:To construct the concept and its conceptual framework of hospital health literacy(HHL) for exploring the HHL promotion mechanism in the country.Methods:Based on the proceduralised grounded theory, twelve middle or senior managers of hospitals were selected for in-depth interviews and three hospitals were selected for field research from July 2021 to February 2022. Open coding, axial coding, and selective coding were used in data analysis, establishing the concept of HHL and its conceptual framework in China.Results:The conceptual framework of HHL was composed of an internal driver mechanism(hospitals improve their health literacy promotion management system, staff-led health literacy promotion, health literacy promoting physical environment construction), and an external driver mechanism(cooperate with external organizations and institutions to conduct health literacy promotion). The concept of HHL in China was derived as follows: the combination of supportive environments and human resources that health care organizations have in place can improve access and understandability of health information and simplify healthcare services to help patients of different health literacy levels more easily obtain, process, and understand health information as well as to make the most of medical services.Conclusions:Hospital health literacy promotion mechanism in China is a synergy between internal and external driver mechanisms.

Objective:APOBEC3B (A3B) is an important member of the apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide (APOBEC) family. The study aims to investigate the relationship between A3B expression and prognosis as well as resistance to cisplatin in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to analysis the A3B mRNA expression in 40 NSCLC tissues; Kaplan Meier plotter was used to analyse the correlation between A3B expression and clinical prognosis; in addition, the knock-down A3B expression cell line in human lung adenocarcinoma cell A549 was constructed; MTS and plate cloning experiment were performed to observe the changes in cell cisplatin sensitivity, and γ-H2AX immunofluorescence was used to quantitate the DNA damage.Results:Compared with adjacent tissues, A3B was highly expressed in NSCLC tissues (27/40). Kaplan Meier plotter analysis showed that A3B expression was positively correlated with NSCLC overall survival (OS) [adenocarcinoma: HR=0.64(0.47-0.86), P=0.002 6; squamous cell carcinoma: HR=0.77(0.59-1.01), P=0.006]. Cell-based studies showed that the knock-down A3B expression contributed to sensitivity to cisplatin in A549 cells. Conclusions:A3B mediates the sensitivity of lung cancer to cisplatin. This effect may partly explain why NSCLC patients with high A3B expression have a better prognosis.

Objective To study the role of leucine rich repeat neuronal 3 (LRRN3) in the prolif-eration of non-small cell lung cancer and its possible mechanism of expression regulation. Methods The expression of LRRN3 in non-small cell lung cancer was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction ( qPCR) , immunohistochemistry and bioinformatics retrieval;A lung cancer cell line A549-LRRN3 with stable over-expression of LRRN3 was established by lentivirus over-expression technology;The effect of LRRN3 on the proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium ( MTT) assay;Bioinformatics search for changes in methylation of LRRN3 promoter region and treatment of lung cancer cells by methyltransferase inhibitors to detect the effect of methylation on the regulation of LR-RN3 expression; Finally, bioinformatics search analyzes the correlation between LRRN3 and lung cancer prognosis. Results The mRNA expression of LRRN3 in clinical tissues of non-small cell lung cancer (n=12) was significantly lower than that of adjacent normal tissues (n=12) (P=0. 0014). The results of immunohistochemistry showed that the protein expression level of LRRN3 in non-small cell lung adenocar-cinoma was lower than that in normal tissues (P=0. 001), and the expression in non-small cell lung squa-mous cell carcinoma was also lower than that in normal tissues (P=0. 003). Overexpression of LRRN3 in-hibited the proliferation of tumor cells (P<0. 01), and the hypermethylation of LRRN3 in the promoter re-gion inhibited its transcriptional expression. LRRN3 was positively correlated with the survival prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (P=5. 2e-09;HR=0. 48). Conclusions Hypermethylation in the promoter region of LRRN3 inhibits its transcriptional expression, thereby promoting the proliferation of lung cancer cells.

] Objective To explore the role and mechanisms of FGF2 in chemo?resistance in breast cancer. Methods The inhibitors for different signal pathway were used to treat two drug?resistant breast cancer cell lines MCF?7/5?Fu and T47D/5?Fu established in our lab. MTS assay was used to determine chemo?sensitivity and Hoechst stain was used to measure apoptosis. Protein activation and FGF2 protein level in cell culture medium were detected by western blot and ELISA respectively. Results Akt inhibitor MK?2206 (20 nM) and mTOR inhibitor AZD8055 (2 nM) significantly reversed the chemo?resistance of MCF?7/5?Fu and T47D/5?Fu cell lines to 5?Fu and paclitaxel, but ERK1/2 inhibitor SCH772984 showed no significant effect. Compared to parent cell lines MCF?7 and T47D, p?Akt and p?S6K (represented as mTORactivity) levels were obviously up?regulated in MCF?7/5?Fu and T47D/5?Fu cell lines, and so do the FGF2 mRNA level and FGF2 protein level from culture medium. Moreover, FGFR inhibitor AZD4547 (4 nM) markedly reversed the chemo?resistance of MCF?7/5?Fu and T47D/5?Fu cell lines to 5?Fu and paclitaxel and down?regulated activation of FGFR?Akt?mTOR signal pathway. In agreement, FGF2 protein (10ng/ml) enhanced the chemo?resistance of MCF?7 and T47D cell lines to 5?Fu and paclitaxel and up?regulated activation of FGFR?Akt?mTOR signal pathway. Conclusion Activation of FGF2?FGFR?Akt?mTOR signal pathway promoted chemo?resistance of breast cancer cells.
