ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of microRNA-622(miR-622)in epithelial ovarian cancer,andanalyze its influence on tumor cell migration and invasion.METHODS:Epithelial ovarian cancer(n=125),benignepithelial ovarian tumors(n=45),and normal ovarian tissues(n=25)were obtained from January 2003 to December 2016 at Dongguan People's Hospital of Southern Medical University.The expression of miR-622 was determined by real-timePCR.The miR-622 mimics were transiently transfected into human ovarian cancer cells,and their influence on cellmigration and invasion was analyzed by Transwell assay.RESULTS:Higher miR-622 expression was found in epithelialovarian cancer tissues than in benign epithelial ovarian tumors and normal ovarian tissues(P<0.05).Expression of miR-622 was correlated with FIGO stage and lymphatic metastasis(P<0.05).Up-regulation of miR-622 promoted theinvasion and migration of SKOV3 cells in vitro.CONCLUSION:The expression level of miR-622 is increased in tumourtissues,which indicates that miR-622 might be involved in the progression of epithelial ovarian cancer by promotingcancer cell migration and invasion.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>The purpose of this study is to study the sealing ability and the furcal appearance of repairing subpulpal wall perforation with resinous inlay.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Fifty newly extracted human molars were randomly divided into three experiment groups (group A, group B, group C, 15 teeth each) and one control group (5 teeth). In experiment groups, perforations were made perpendicularly to the center of the pulp chamber floor. Perforations of group A and B were repaired with resinous inlay and sealed by AH Plus sealer and luting glass-ionomer, respectively. Perforations of group C were directly repaired using light-cure composite resin. Perforations were not made in five teeth of control group. The furcal appearances were evaluated under stereomicroscope after repairing. Microleakage was measured by glucose oxidase detection.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The fineness rate of furcal appearances with resinous inlay repairing were 83.3%, while the fineness rate of furcal appearances with light-cure composite resin directly repairing were 46.7%. There were statistics difference between resinous inlay repairing and light-cure composite resin directly repairing (P<0.05). There were statistics difference among the daily microleakage of three experiment groups, group A<group B<group C (P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Using resinous inlay to repair the subpulpal wall perforation can improve the sealing effect and avoid material overextension. AH Plus can be used as perforation sealant because of its better sealing ability.</p>
