RESUMO
BACKGROUND: With programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors becoming the standard treatment for lung cancer, PD-1-related adverse reactions and treatment have gradually become prominent. CASE SUMMARY: First reported case of tislelizumab-related enteritis successfully treated with adalimumab 40mg every 2 wk for 3 times in an advanced lung cancer patient who received first-line tislelizumab/pemetrexed/carboplatin for 4 cycles. The patient continued receiving the treatment of pemetrexed/carboplatin after symptoms, abdominal computed tomography and colonoscopy improved, significant diarrhea was not occurred. CONCLUSION: Adalimumab can be an effective treatment option for patients with PD-1 antibody related enteritis if they do not respond well to glucocorticoid treatment.
RESUMO
MicroRNA (miRNA)-based targeting in cancer has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy. miR-206 has recently been implicated in cancer. However, the role and molecular mechanism of miR-206 in lung adenocarcinoma are still unclear. The present study revealed that miR-206 was downregulated in human lung adenocarcinoma tissues. Overexpression of miR-206 in human lung adenocarcinoma-derived cells significantly inhibited cell viability and migration. Further experiments indicated that the overexpression of miR-206 decreased the expression of MET at the messenger RNA and protein levels via direct targeting of MET in a 3'-untranslated region-dependent manner. The knockdown of MET by small interfering RNA partly led to a phenocopy effect of miR-206. In conclusion, the present study identified miR-206 as a potential tumor suppressor of lung adenocarcinoma that exerts its functions, in part, by negative regulation of MET.
