Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death worldwide. It is urgent to develop new drugs to improve the prognosis of ESCC patients. Here, we found benzydamine, a locally acting non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, had potent cytotoxic effect on ESCC cells. Benzydamine could suppress ESCC proliferation in vivo and in vitro. In terms of mechanism, CDK2 was identified as a target of benzydamine by molecular docking, pull-down assay and in vitro kinase assay. Specifically, benzydamine inhibited the growth of ESCC cells by inhibiting CDK2 activity and affecting downstream phosphorylation of MCM2, c-Myc and Rb, resulting in cell cycle arrest. Our study illustrates that benzydamine inhibits the growth of ESCC cells by downregulating the CDK2 pathway.

Objective To explore the specific cellular and humoral immunity induced by dendritic cells (DC) vaccine loading allogenic microvascular endothelial cell bEnd. 3 antigen against U14 cervical cancer cell of mice. Methods Mouse brain microvascular endothelial cell bEnd. 3 was cultured and identified for preparation endothelial cell bEnd. 3 antigen. The level of mRNA expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGF-R2) and integrin αV was detected by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. The BALB/c mice were immuned with DC loading bEnd. 3 antigen 4 times in 4 weeks (bEnd. 3-DC group), while the mice only were immuned with DC or injected with phosphate buffer saline (PBS group) as control group. One week after last vaccination, U14 cervical cancer cells were injected subcutaneously into the mice. The tumor size, cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response of spleen lymphocytes in vitro, the percentage of CD3+ CD+8 surface markers of spleen lymphocytes, and the titer of serum antibody were detected. The specific immunity was examined by immunocytochemistry and western blot. Results The expression of VEGF-R2 and integrin αV gene in bEnd. 3 cells were expressed highly.After the vaccine was injected, the tumors of mice in PBS group grew faster than those in other groups, while the tumors in bEnd. 3-DC group grew slowly and disappeared after 2 weeks. The volume of tumors in DC group grew slower than those in PBS group [(0.11± 0.13) cm3 versus (3.38 ±0.34) cm3]. The CTL response of spleen iymphocytes in vitro showed that bEnd. 3-DC cells could kill bEnd. 3 cells, the special lysis rate was more than 60% . The percentage of CD+3 CD+8 spleen lymphocytes in bEnd. 3-DC group[(38.6 ± 0.7) %] was higher than those in other groups (P < 0.05). The titer of serum antibody of Immunocytochemistry analysis indicated there were specific antigen-antibody reaction to bEnd. 3 cell in bEnd. 3-DC group. Western blot analysis revealed that there were specific bands at 220 000 (VEGF-R2).Conclusions bEnd. 3-DC vaccine can inhibit the tumor growth of U14 cervical cancer cell of mice, which indicates that the special cellular and humorai immunity are induced by bEnd. 3-DC antigen which maybe have some antigens in bEnd. 3 cells that reacts with endothelial cell proliferation-related antigens.

Objective To investigate the differentially expressed genes of primary esophageal squamous cell carci-noma and of normal esophageal mucosa. Methods LCM-GMA-cDNA microarray was used to detect the mRNA from both the primary carcinoma and the corresponding esophageal epithelium in 15 cases of human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). After high-stringent washing, the cDNA microarray was scanned for the fluores-cent signals. Results Among the 886 target genes, 34 genes had significant difference in Ⅰ / Ⅱ and Ⅲ/Ⅳ group. Cell cycle regulators possibly promoting the growth of tumor cells were highly expressed in the early stages of ESCC, whereas adhesion molecules and extracellular matrix-related molecules possibly promoting invasiveness increased in the later stages. Conclusion More than one gene contributed to esophageal cancer. The profiles of gene expression will bring us chance to understanding the molecular mechanism of tumor progression and to support clinical treat-ment.

To screen the genes associated with esophageal cancer, a cDNA microarray technique was established and used for the analysis of the gene expression profile in human esophageal cancer cell line ECa109. The results showed that 107 (12.08%) genes differentially expressed among 886 target genes were identified between ECa109 cell line and normal human esophageal epithelial cells (HEEC), of which 51 (5.76%) were up-regulated and 56 (6.32%) down-regulated. Two genes were validated by quantitative RT-PCR (Q-RT-PCR) and the results were identical. The RNA amplification technique based-T7 RNA polymerase was established. The gene expression profile revealed better consistency between the amplified samples and those without amplification by T7 RNA polymerase, which provides a method for studying the profile of minute quantities of tumor cells in primary esophageal cancers. And the preliminary study on differential expression gene profile also enables us to have an understanding of the pathogenesis and pathomechanism of esophageal cancer.

Objective To investigate the etfect of microenvironment simulated by colon carcinoma homogenate supernatant on the differentiation and development of human dendritic ceils (DCs), and to investigate the function of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) during this process . Methods Fresh colon carcinoma and peri-cancer tissues were collected to prepare homogenate supernatant. The pe-ripberal blood mononuclear cells were isolated and cultured with 1640 medium including rhGM-CSF and rhIL-4. Then the colon carcinoma homogenate supernatant, peri--carcinoma homogenate supernatant and VEGF-A were added to the cultures at day 2. Antigen of colon carcinoma cell line SW620 was added at day 4 and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was added at day 6. DCs were collected at day 8 for further study. The con-tent of VEGF-A was tested by ELISA. The morphology and the immunopbenotype of DCs were checked by microscope and flow cytometry, respectively. The expression of CDIa was tested by RT-PCR, and the prolif-eration and killing rate of T cell was measured by CCK-8. Results The content of VEGF-A in the homoge-nate supernatant of colon carcinoma was significantly higher than that of the peri-carcinoma (P < 0. 05). Compared with normal DCs, the cell morphology of colon carcinoma homogenate aupernatant group was in-hibited, and the cell number was decreased. Besides, the positive expression rate of DC surface markers de-creased (P < 0.01). The capacity of mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and killing capacity of T cells de-creased(P <0.01). However, there was almost no difference between VEGF-A group and normal DCs on the cell morphology and cell number, and VEGF-A had no obvious inhibition on the expression of DCs sur-face markers (P > 0.05). But VEGF-A group had significantly inhibitory effect on the MLR and T cells kill-ing. Conclusion The tumor microenvironment simulated by the colon carcinoma homogenate supernatant obviously has inhibitory effect on the differentiation and function of DCs, and VEGF-A has the inhibitory effect on DC function, but the inhibitory effect is not through the inhibition of the expression of DC costimu-lators.
