lncRNA CDK5RAP3 regulates the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer cells via miR-223-3p / 国际外科学杂志

Objective:To explore the expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CDK5RAP3 in gastric cancer tissue and its regulatory effect on gastric cancer cell proliferation and invasion.Methods:The expression differences of CDK5RAP3 in gastric cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were analyzed by TCGA database. By transfecting the pcDNA3.1-CDK5RAP3 plasmid into Hs-746T cells, a gastric cancer cell line overexpressing CDK5RAP3 (CDK5RAP3 group) was constructed, and the pcDNA3.1 plasmid was transfected into Hs-746T cells as a control group. The changes of CDK5RAP3 expression in the two groups of cells were detected by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). The effects of overexpression of CDK5RAP3 on the proliferation and invasion of Hs-746T cells were detected by CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay, respectively. The binding sites of CDK5RAP3 and miR-223-3p were predicted by the starBase v2.0 database. The direct binding of CDK5RAP3 and miR-223-3p was verified by dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment. The expression levels of miR-223-3p in Hs-746T cells in each group were detected by qRT-PCR. Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of proliferation proteins and invasion proteins in Hs-746T cells in each group. The experimental data were analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software, and the measurement data conforming to the normal distribution were expressed as Mean±SD. The t-test was used to compare between two groups, and the one-way analysis of variance was used to compare the means of multiple groups. Results:Compared with adjacent tissues, the expression level of CDK5RAP3 in gastric cancer tissues was significantly lower ( P<0.01). The expressions of CDK5RAP3 in Hs-746T cells in the control group and CDK5RAP3 group were (1.08±0.77) and (10.63±2.14), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Up-regulation of CDK5RAP3 significantly decreased the proliferation activity of Hs-746T cells ( P<0.05). The number of invasive cells in the control group and CDK5RAP3 group were (137.80±28.72) and (57.76±24.95), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). CDK5RAP3 could directly bind miR-223-3p ( P<0.01). The expression of miR-223-3p in Hs-746T cells in control group and CDK5RAP3 group were (6.22±1.20) and (1.01±0.98), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, up-regulation of CDK5RAP3 significantly reduced the expression levels of proliferation and invasive proteins. Conclusion:The expression of CDK5RAP3 is low in gastric cancer tissue, and CDK5RAP3 inhibits the proliferation and invasion of gastric cancer Hs-746T cells by targeting miR-223-3p.

Role of deubiquitinating enzymes in DNA double-strand break repair / 浙江大学学报（英文版）（B辑：生物医学和生物技术）

DNA is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. It is essential for maintaining accurate transmission of genetic information. In the life cycle, DNA replication, cell division, or genome damage, including that caused by endogenous and exogenous agents, may cause DNA aberrations. Of all forms of DNA damage, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most serious. If the repair function is defective, DNA damage may cause gene mutation, genome instability, and cell chromosome loss, which in turn can even lead to tumorigenesis. DNA damage can be repaired through multiple mechanisms. Homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) are the two main repair mechanisms for DNA DSBs. Increasing amounts of evidence reveal that protein modifications play an essential role in DNA damage repair. Protein deubiquitination is a vital post-translational modification which removes ubiquitin molecules or polyubiquitinated chains from substrates in order to reverse the ubiquitination reaction. This review discusses the role of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) in repairing DNA DSBs. Exploring the molecular mechanisms of DUB regulation in DSB repair will provide new insights to combat human diseases and develop novel therapeutic approaches.

Prognostic significance of VEGF-C expression in patients with breast cancer: a meta-analysis

Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF]-C, as a lymphangiogenic factor, plays important roles in the progression of several malignancies. However, its clinical prognostic value in breast cancer still remains controversial. We performed a meta-analysis of available studies to assess the association between VEGF-C expression and the outcomes of breast cancer patients

Results: We searched eligible studies in three English databases [MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science] and two Chinese databases [Wanfang and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases]. Key words used in the research included 'VEGF-C", "breast cancer", "immunohistochemistry", "breast neoplasma[s]", "breast carcinoma", "metastasis", and "prognosis". Fourteen studies with a total of 1, 573 breast cancer cases were finally included into the meta-analysis. The pooled odds ratios [ORs] with the corresponding 95% confidence interval [95% CIs] for lymph node metastasis, overall survival, and disease-free survival were calculated by using fixed-effects or random-effects models. Heterogeneity and publication bias were also assessed

Results: Meta-analysis of random-effects model showed VEGF-C expression was associated with lymph node metastasis in patients with breast cancer [random-effects, OR = 2.14; 95 % CI 1.21-3.77, P = 0.009]. VEGF-C expression was associated with poorer overall survival [fixed-effects, OR = 2.46, 95% CI: 1.46-4.14, P < 0.001] and disease-free survival [fixed-effects, OR = 2.10, 95% CI: 1.32-3.35, P = 0.002] in patients with breast cancer

Conclusion: VEGF-C expression is positively associated with lymph node metastasis in breast cancer, and VEGF-C detection in breast cancer might be an effective and feasible means to predict outcome

Objective: To investigate the effects of a Chinese herbal formula for calming liver and suppressing yang on the protein expressions of vascular tissues in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), and to explore the mechanism of efficacy. Methods: Twenty SHRs were randomly divided into model group and treatment group. Another 10 Wistar-Kyoto rats were selected as a normal control. SHRs in the treatment group were administered with the formula for calming liver and suppressing Yang for 4 weeks. During the course of treatment, blood pressure and heart rates were monitored every week and the ethology of rats, including irritability and rotation endurance was also evaluated. After treatment, thoracic aorta was obtained and its proteins were separated by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). The differentially expressed proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and database query. Results: The formula for calming liver and suppressing yang not only decreased the systolic blood pressure and heart rate, but also improved irritability degree and rotation endurance time of SHRs. This experiment had established the 2-DE graph of protein expressions of vascular tissues in SHRs. Compared with the normal group, the expressions of 15 proteins were down-regulated, and 12 proteins were up-regulated in vascular tissues of the model group. The formula for calming liver and suppressing yang treatment up-regulated expressions of 10 proteins in the 15 down-regulated proteins, and down-regulated 8 proteins in the 12 up-regulated proteins in vascular tissues of SHRs. After analysis, 16 obviously differentially expressed proteins were found, and 13 of them were identified. Conclusion: The formula for calming liver and suppressing yang can improve the ethology of SHRs. The mechanism is probably concerned with regulating the protein expressions of vascular tissues.
