ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the molecular mechanism underlying miR-9500 regulating the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells by targeting SMAD2. Methods The core target genes of miR-9500 were screened out by bioinformatics analysis, and their GO function analysis, KEGG signaling pathway enrichment, and survival analysis were performed. The targeted binding sites between miR-9500 and SMAD2 were predicted, and the direct targeting relationship between miR-9500 and SMAD2 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to assess the effect of miR-9500 on the mRNA and protein expression levels of SMAD2. Wound healing assay, Transwell assay, and Matrigel invasion assay were used to determine the effect of miR-9500 on the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells. Results The core target genes of miR-9500 were mainly enriched in the cancer pathway, TGF-β signaling pathway, and focal adhesion. However, only the expression levels of VAMP2, SMAD2, and RXRA among the top 10 core target genes were significantly correlated with the overall survival of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. miR-9500 targeted SMAD2 and down-regulated the expression levels of SMAD2, and overexpression of miR-9500 significantly inhibited the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells and markedly decreased the expression levels of MMP2 and MMP9. Conclusion miR-9500 can inhibit the migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells by targeting SMAD2, which may play an important role in the tumorigenesis and development of lung adenocarcinoma as a tumor suppressor.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the influence of intravenous injection combined with oral of metoprolol tartrate on left ventricular function and adverse cardiovascular events of patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction.Methods84 cases of Patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction treated in the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University were selected as the study objects, and were divided into vein group and combination group according to drugs-taking modes, 42 cases in each groups.The vein group were treated with intravenous injection of metoprolol tartrate, and the combination group were treated with intravenous injection combined with oral of metoprolol tartrate.Clinical effect, left ventricular function, BP and HR levels, and incidence of adverse cardiovascular events were observed in the two groups.ResultsThe total effective rate of the combination group was 95.24% significantly higher than that of 80.95% in the vein group(P0.05).ConclusionIntravenous injection combined with oral of metoprolol tartrate can effectively improve left ventricular function of patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction, and reduce incidence of adverse cardiovascular events.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe changes of erythropoietin (EPO) and rheology in moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) patients after the noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) treatment. Methods Healthy adults were selected as control group (n=40) while moderate to severe OSAHS patients were selected as OSAHS group. OSAHS group was underwent NPPV treatment then, Levels of sleep apnea hypopnea index (AHI), sleep mean minimum oxygen saturation (LSaO2) and serum erythropoietin (EPO) were assessed, routine blood test and hemodynam-ic indexes were also checked before treatment and 1 and 3 months after treatment in both groups. Results In both groups serum EPO, blood, blood rheology indexes, AHI, LSaO2 were analysised at each time point by ANOVA repeated measures, all of which show significant different between groups and between each time points within the same group. Indexes in OSAHS group improved with prolonged treatment , but they are in the normal range in the control. Conclusion OSAHS pa-tients with NPPV therapy can significantly relieve hypoxia, reduce serum EPO level and blood viscosity. So NPPV has impor-tant clinical significance in prevention and treatment of OSAHS.
