OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy ，safety and immunogenicity of bevacizumab biosimilars and original drugs for non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC），and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical use. METHODS PubMed，Embase， Web of Science ，Cochrane Library ，CBM，CNKI，VIP，Wanfang database ，ClinicalTrials.gov，and Clinical Trial Center of China were searched from the establishment of the database to September 25，2021，randomized controlled trials （RCTs）about bevacizumab biosimilars（trial group ）versus bevacizumab original drugs （control group ）for NSCLC were collected. After literature screening ， data extraction and quality evaluation of included RCTs with bias risk assessment tool recommended by Cochrane Handbook 5.1.0， meta-analysis，sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS A total of 11 RCTs were included ，involving 6 596 patients in total. Meta-analysis showed that there was no statistical significance in the difference of overall response rate [RR＝0.97，95％CI（0.92，1.02），P＝0.22]，the total incidence of adverse reaction [RR＝1.00， 95％CI（0.99，1.01），P＝0.79]，the incidence of severe adverse reaction [RR＝1.04，95％CI（0.96，1.13），P＝0.38]，positive rate of anti-drug antibody [RR ＝1.10，95％CI（0.88，1.36，P＝0.41] and the incidence of common adverse reactions （except for vomiting）among 2 groups（P＞0.05）. The sensitivity analysis results showed that the obtained results were robust. The results of publication bias analysis showed that there was little possibility of publication bias. CONCLUSIONS The efficacy ，safety and immunogenicity of bevacizumab biosimilars used for NSCLC are equivalent to those of bevacizumab original drugs.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis of head and neck carcinosarcoma. Methods: The clinical data of 14 patients with head and neck carcinosarcoma treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2010 to May 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 11 males and 3 females, with age range from 30 to 72 years old. Clinicopathological characteristics, treatments and follow-up results of patients were evaluated. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the cumulative survival rate. Results: Histopathological examination showed the co-existence of malignant epithelial and mesenchymal components in all cases. Immunohistochemical staining of 13 cases showed cytokeratin and epithelial membrane antigens were positively expressed in the epithelial areas, whereas vimentin was positive in the malignant mesenchymal tissue area. Among 14 cases, 5 cases were treated with surgery, 3 cases with surgery and radiotherapy, and 6 cases with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The follow-up time was 2-81 months, with a median follow-up time of 22.5 months. Except for one patient who was lost to follow-up in 21 months after treatment, among the remaining 13 patients, 4 patients had recurrence, 8 patients died, and 5 patients had a tumor-free survival. The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the 1, 3, and 5-year cumulative survival rates of 14 patients with head and neck carcinosarcoma were 64.3%, 57.1%, and 42.9%, respectively. Conclusions: Carcinosarcoma of the head and neck is rare in clinic, histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations are important basis for diagnosis, and surgery is a preferred treatment. Carcinosarcoma of the head and neck has a poor prognosis, and patients should be followed up for a long time.

Objective To investigate the effect of resveratrol (RSV) on epithelial-mesenchymal transition of MDA-MB-231 cells by down-regulating POLD1 expression. Methods CCK-8 was used to detect the effect of RSV on the activity of MDA-MB-231 cells. POLD1-OE and POLD1-NC cell lines were constructed by transfecting MDA-MB-231 cells with recombinant lentivirus. Western blot was used to detect the expression of POLD1, E-cadherin, N-cadherin and Vimentin after RSV treatment. Transwell invasion experiment and the scratch test were used to detect the cells invasion and migration abilities of each experimental group. Results RSV could significantly inhibit the survival of MDA-MB-231 cells, reduce the expression of POLD1, N-cadherin and Vimentin, increase the expression of E-cadherin, and inhibit the abilities of cell invasion and migration. Increasing the POLD1 expression could reduce the above-mentioned biological effects of RSV on MDA-MB-231 cells. Conclusion RSV could significantly inhibit the viability and EMT of MDA-MB-231 cells by down-regulating the expression of POLD1.

Objective:To investigate the effect of esculin on the proliferation of triple negative breast cancer cells and its molecular mechanism.Methods:MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with 28, 56, 112, 225, 450 and 900 μmol/L of esculin for 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively, and the cell viability was detected by cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) assay. In addition, MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with 0, 225, 450 and 900 μmol/L of esculin for 48 h. And then the changes in cell morphology were observed by inverted microscope. The clone-forming ability was detected by colony formation assay. The mRNA expression levels of FBI-1, p53 and p21 were detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The protein expression levels of FBI-1, p53, p21 and Ki67 were detected by western blot.Results:Compared with the blank control group, the cell viability of MDA-MB-231 cells that treated with esculin significantly decreased in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manners. After treatment with esculin, MDA-MB-231 cells shrunk, flattened, adhered poorly to the culture dish and the cell spacing became larger. Meanwhile, shedding and incomplete cells appeared, of which 900 μmol/L of esculin treatment group showed the most dramatic changes. In addition, the colony formation ratios were decreased to (77.18±5.13)%, (65.94±4.98)% and (45.92±3.70)% in the 225, 450 and 900 μmol/L of esculin treatment groups compared with blank control, respectively ( P<0.01). Furthermore, the mRNA and protein expressions of FBI-1 increased, while the levels of p53 and p21 mRNA and protein, as well as the protein expression of Ki67 decreased in a concentration-dependent manner ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Esculin may regulate cell cycle-related p53-p21 pathway via FBI-1 mediated DNA replication, thus inhibit the proliferation of triple negative breast cancer cells.

Objective: To explore the feasibility of 7, 12-dimethylbenz[a] anthracene (DMBA) induced tree shrew breast cancer model, and compare the effects of two administration modes by gavage and mammary gland injection. Methods: A total of 40 tree shrews were randomly divided into two groups (20 animals per group): DMBA gavage group and mammary gland injection group. DMBA was dissolved in edible vegetable oil. For gavage group, tree shrews were administered with DMBA solutions (15 mg/kg) by gavage once a day. For mammary gland injection group, DMBA solution (10 mg/kg) was injected into the mammary fat pad of tree shrews, and the injection was performed for a total of 3 times. From the first administration of DMBA, medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA, 100 mg/kg) was intramuscularly injected into the muscles of the lateral thighs of tree shrews at the same time, for a total of 5 times. The tumorigenesis and survival of tree shrews were monitored. The tumor histological morphology was observed by HE staining. The expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), cytokeratin5/6 (CK5/6) and human epidermal factor receptor-2 (HER-2) was detected by immunohistochemical staining. Results: In the gavage group, there were 10 deaths, and 4 tree shrews developed mammary tumors with 20.0% (4/20) tumor formation rate. The success rate of mammary cancer modeling was 10.0% (2/20), and the tumor formation time was 197.3±15.1 days. In the mammary gland injection group, there were 8 tree shrews died, and 9 tree shrews formed tumors with 45.0% (9/20) tumor formation rate. The success rate of mammary cancer modeling was 40.0% (8/20), and the tumor formation time was 71.8±19.0 days. There was no significant difference in mortality and tumor formation rate (P>0.05) between the two groups (all P>0.05). However, in the mammary gland injection group, the success rate of mammary cancer modeling was significantly higher than that in the gavage group (P<0.05), whereas the tumor formation time was markedly shorter than that in the gavage group (P<0.01). The pathological types in the gavage group included ductal hyperplasia, intraductal papilloma and ductal carcinoma in situ, while those in the breast injection group included intraductal papilloma and ductal carcinoma in situ. In both groups, immunohistochemical staining showed the negative expression of HER-2 but positive expression of ER, PR and CK5/6 with varying degrees. Conclusion Both the DMBA gavage and mammary gland injection can successfully establish the tree shrew breast cancer model, and the modeling effect of mammary gland injection is better than gavage.

Objective: To assess the predictive value of the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)and tumor-related factors on the peritoneal metastasis in advanced gastric cancer patients. Methods: A total of 701 pathologically confirmed gastric cancer patients who underwent surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between Jan 2009 and Jan 2012 were enrolled. Results: Univariate analysis indicated that tumor location, tumor size, serosal invasion, depth of invasion, pathological type, lymph node metastasis and PLR were related to peritoneal metastasis(all P<0.05). According to the area under the ROC curve, the optimal cutoff value of PLR for predicting peritoneal metastasis was 132.43 (sensitivity 71.8%, specificity 50.6%). There were significant differences in tumor size, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis and serosal infiltration between high PLR group and low PLR group. Multivariate Logistic analyses revealed that PLR (HR=2.205, P=0.003), lymph node metastasis(HR=3.113, P=0.010)and tumor size(HR=1.150, P=0.014) were independent risk factors for peritoneal metesfasis. Conclusions Preoperative PLR is valuable in predicting peritoneal metastasis of advanced gastric cancer and it is an independent risk factor for peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.
