RESUMO

Objective: To prepare cell membrane nanovesicles (NVs) derived from breast cancer cells, to explore their basic characteristics, tumor cell endocytosis, and in vivo distribution in a tumor-bearing mouse model, and to investigate their tumor targeting properties. Methods: 4T1 breast cancer cells were cultured in vitro. The cell membrane of 4T1 cells was isolated through ultracentrifugation and NVs were formulated with a liposome extruder. The size distribution of NVs was determined by way of dynamic light scattering, and the morphology properties of the NVs were examined with transmission electron microscope. The stability of NVs was analyzed by measuring the diameter changes of NVs submerged in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). The biocompatibility of NVs was investigated by measuring the viability of dendritic cells treated with NVs at different concentrations (5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 mg·L -1) by CCK-8 assay. Fluorescence microscopy was used to analyze the cellular uptake of NVs by breast cancer cells. A mice model of breast cancer model was established with mice bearing subcutaneous xenograft of 4T1 cells. The mice were treated with Cy5.5-labeled NVs injected via the tail vein and the in vivo distribution of NVs was analyzed with an imaging system for small live animals. Results: The results showed that NVs derived from 4T1 breast cancer cells were successfully prepared. The NVs had a mean diameter of 123.2 nm and exhibited a hollow spherical structure under transmission electron microscope. No obvious change in the size of the NVs was observed after 7 days of incubation in PBS solution. CCK-8 assay results showed that the viability of dendritic cells treated with NVs at different concentrations was always higher than 90%. Fluorescence microscopic imaging showed that NVs could be efficiently internalized into breast cancer cells. in vivo biodistribution analysis revealed that breast cancer cell-derived NVs showed higher distribution in tumor tissue than the NVs prepared with normal cells did. Conclusion: We successfully prepared cell membrane NVs derived from 4T1 breast cancer cells. These NVs had efficient cellular uptake by breast cancer cells and sound tumor targeting properties.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Presently, the notion of traditional right hemicolectomy has not met the rapidly developed requirements for precise gastrointestinal surgical procedures. In this study, we introduced a novel surgical method, namely "anatomical right hemicolectomy," and evaluated the safety and short-term effects of this method for the treatment of right hemicolon carcinoma. METHODOLOGY: The clinical data of 10 cases with progressive right hemicolon carcinoma underwent anatomical right hemicolectomy from January 2013 to February 2014 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS: All the operations were successfully completed. The number of cleared lymph nodes was 18.0±6.7, the mean operative time was 162.7±25.3 mins, the mean blood loss was 95.2±32.5 ml, time to first flatus was 4.2±1.9 days, and the mean size of tumor was 4.96±3.2 cm. In these 10 patients, there was no case of respiratory infections, intestinal obstruction, anastomotic bleeding, anastomotic stricture, anastomotic leakage and other complications. All patients recovered, and subsequently discharged. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, anatomical right hemicolectomy was a safe and feasible method for the treatment of progressive right hemicolon carcinoma; it was worth popularizing widely.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is critical for the development of the invasion and metastasis in human cancers. Recently, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) activation has been linked to EMT program in breast cancer. However, the actual association of STAT3 activation with EMT, and its mediated tumor invasion and metastasis remains elusive in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between STAT3 activation and EMT, as well as the underlying mechanism involved in HCC progression. METHODOLOGY: We treated SMMC-7721 cells with a known STAT3 activator, epithelial growth factor (EGF); in the absence or presence of JSI-124, a selective STAT3 inhibitor. The EMT-associated morphologic and molecular changes of cells were analyzed. The EMT-mediated HCC cell invasion, migration and adhesion were evaluated. RESULTS: In this study, we found that STAT3 activation induced by EGF was associated significantly with morphologic changes, cytoskeleton rearrangement and molecular changes consistent with EMT in SMMC-7721 cells; STAT3 activation-mediated EMT may be transcriptionally induced by Twist. STAT3 activation-mediated EMT also promoted HCC cell invasion, migration and adhesion significantly. CONCLUSIONS: In summary, our study show for the first time that STAT3 activation may induce invasion and metastasis through the mediation of EMT in HCC cells. Activated STAT3 and EMT markers can serve as molecular targets for HCC treatment.
