ABSTRACT
Abstract The AMC-HN-8 cell line and the primary human laryngeal epithelial cell lines were utilized in this work to explore the molecular mechanism of miR-548-3p regulating the gene DAG1 to induce the occurrence and malignant transformation of laryngeal carcinoma. Non-coding RNA miR-548- 3p overexpression plasmid, interference plasmid and blank plasmid were constructed, and the plasmids were transfected into AMC-HN-8 cells, respectively. Meanwhile, a non-transfected plasmid group and a human laryngeal epithelial primary cell group were set up. Five groups of cells were named as NC (Normal control), Model, Ov-miR-548-3p, Sh-miR-548-3p and Blank-plasmid group. The luciferase reporter experiment was used to analyze the regulation characteristics of hsa-miR-548-3p on dystrophin-associated glycoprotein 1 (DAG1). Immunofluorescence was used to analyze the relative expression characteristics of the protein DAG1. The cell cloning experiment was used to analyze the proliferation characteristics of AMC-HN-8. The scratch healing test was used to analyze the migration ability of AMC-HN-8. The transwell test was used to analyze the invasion ability of AMC-HN-8. The RT-PCR was used to analyze the expression level of miR-548-3p. Western blot experiments were used to analyze the expression of protein DAG1, laminin α2 (LAMA2) and utrophin (UTRN). The luciferase report experiment and immunofluorescence test found that the expression of DAG1 and miR-548-3p are positively correlated. Cell cloning, scratching and migration experiments identified that the activity of laryngeal cancer cells was positively correlated with the expression of DAG1. The results of Western blot analysis further strengthened the above conclusions. Through carrying out research on the cellular levels, our work has demonstrated that miR-548-3p regulated the content of protein DAG1, and then further induced malignant transformation of laryngeal carcinoma.
Resumen En este trabajo se utilizaron la línea celular AMC-HN-8 y la línea celular epitelial laríngea humana primaria, para explorar el mecanismo molecular regulador del miR-548-3p sobre el gen DAG1 para inducir la aparición y la transformación maligna del carcinoma laríngeo. Se construyeron el plásmido de sobreexpresión de miR-548-3p de ARN no codificante, el plásmido de interferencia y el plásmido en blanco, y los plásmidos se transfectaron en células AMCHN-8 respectivamente. Mientras tanto, se establecieron un grupo de plásmidos no transfectados y un grupo de células primarias epiteliales laríngeas humanas. Se nombraron cinco grupos de células como NC (control normal), modelo, OvmiR-548-3p, Sh-miR-548-3p y grupo de plásmido en blanco. El experimento indicador de luciferasa se utilizó para analizar las características de regulación de hsa-miR-548-3p en la glicoproteína 1 asociada a distrofina (DAG1). Se utilizó inmunofluorescencia para analizar las características de expresión relativa de la proteína DAG1. El experimento de clonación celular se utilizó para analizar las características de proliferación de AMC-HN-8. Se utilizó la prueba de cicatrización por rascado para analizar la capacidad de migración de AMC-HN-8. La prueba de transwell se utilizó para analizar la capacidad de invasión de AMCHN-8. Se utilizó RT-PCR para analizar el nivel de expresión de miR-548-3p. Se usó un experimento de transferencia Western (Western blot) para analizar las expresiones de la proteína DAG1, laminina α2 (LAMA2) y utrofina (UTRN). El experimento de reporte de luciferasa y la prueba de inmunofluorescencia encontraron que la expresión de DAG1 y miR-548-3p están positivamente correlacionadas. Los experimentos de clonación celular, rascado y migración, identificaron que la actividad de las células cancerosas de laringe se correlacionó positivamente con la expresión de DAG1. Los resultados del análisis de transferencia Western fortalecieron aún más las conclusiones anteriores. A través de la investigación a nivel celular, nuestro proyecto ha demostrado que miR-548-3p regula el contenido de la proteína DAG1 y luego induce la transformación maligna del carcinoma de laringe.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To analyze the difference in computed tomography (CT) imaging findings between pulmonary alveolar pneumoconiosis Methods proteinosis (PAP) and occupational pneumoconiosis (hereinafter referred to as ). A total of 44 patients with PAP (PAP group) and 44 patients with pneumoconiosis (pneumoconiosis group) were selected as study subjects using Results convenient sampling method. The CT images of these two groups were comparatively analyzed. The detection rates of - - pulmonary CT pattern changes such as map like performance, ground glass opacity, paving stone sign and sphenoid wing like vs vs changes of pulmonary hilum in the PAP group were higher than those in the pneumoconiosis group (77.3% 0.0%, 75.0% vs vs P 2.3%, 56.8% 0.0%, 18.2% 0.0%, all <0.01); the detection rates of lymphadenopathy and calcification of pulmonary hilum, small pulmonary nodules, emphysema and interlobular septal thickening were lower in the PAP group than those in the vs vs vs vs P Conclusion pneumoconiosis group (34.1% 100.0%, 4.5% 100.0%, 2.3% 45.4%, 0.0% 22.7%, all <0.01). Paving - stone sign and map like performance were most commonly found in the CT imaging of patients with PAP, and it is uncommon in pneumoconiosis. These changes could be used as the CT differential diagnosis of the two diseases.

ABSTRACT
The human microbiome project (HMP) promoted further understanding of human oral microbes. However, research on the human oral microbiota has not made as much progress as research on the gut microbiota. Currently, the causal relationship between the oral microbiota and oral diseases remains unclear, and little is known about the link between the oral microbiota and human systemic diseases. To further understand the contribution of the oral microbiota in oral diseases and systemic diseases, a Human Oral Microbiome Database (HOMD) was established in the US. The HOMD includes 619 taxa in 13 phyla, and most of the microorganisms are from American populations. Due to individual differences in the microbiome, the HOMD does not reflect the Chinese oral microbial status. Herein, we established a new oral microbiome database-the Oral Microbiome Bank of China (OMBC, http://www.sklod.org/ombc ). Currently, the OMBC includes information on 289 bacterial strains and 720 clinical samples from the Chinese population, along with lab and clinical information. The OMBC is the first curated description of a Chinese-associated microbiome; it provides tools for use in investigating the role of the oral microbiome in health and diseases, and will give the community abundant data and strain information for future oral microbial studies.

With the development of minimally invasive surgery,great developments have been made in laparoscopie techniques and digestive endoscopy.However,laparoscopy may cause injury by abdominal puncture,and digestive endoscopy is a painful examination for patients and is difficult to localize the tumor.Magnetic anchor makes use of magnetic attraction in positioning,and it improves laparoscopy and endoscopy by external magnetic field or magnetic handle.Nowadays,combined application of magnetic anchor and laparoscope and endoscope in the treatment of digestive diseases has been accepted by many medical centers,and further researches need to be carried out to realize the aim(small trauma,little pain and quick recovery)of minimally invasive surgery.
