RESUMEN
Objective To explore the relationship of UHRF1 with the clinicopathological characteristics of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, as well as the effects of lentivirus transfection overexpression and knockdown of UHRF1 on the proliferation, invasion, and migration of CRC cells and the possible signaling pathways. Methods The expression of UHRF1 mRNA and protein in CRC tissues and adjacent tissues was detected by immunohistochemical staining and RT-PCR. The effects of the constructed UHRF1 overexpression- and knockdown-group cells on the expression of UHRF1, related molecules in the WNT signaling pathway, and MMPR9 were examined by Western blot and RT-PCR. EDU and Transwell assays were used to detect changes in the proliferation, migration, and invasion of CRC cells. Results (1) In the TCGA database and clinical data, the mRNA and protein expression levels of UHRF1 in CRC cancer tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues. UHRF1 expression was closely correlated with TNM stage, N stage, and M stage. Patients with low UHRF1 expression in TCGA had better 5-year OS and disease-specific survival. The area under the ROC curve of UHRF1 for predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS were 0.634, 0.652, and 0.771, respectively. The 3-year OS in the clinical data also showed the same survival benefit. UHRF1 overexpression was a poor prognostic factor for CRC patients. (2) After UHRF1 overexpression, the expression of WNT3a, GSK3β, and MMP9 in SW480 cells significantly increased, whereas the expression of p-β-catenin decreased (P < 0.05). After UHRF1 knockdown, the expression of WNT3a, GSK3β, and MMP9 in HCT116 cells decreased, whereas the expression of p-β-catenin increased (P < 0.05). The "rescue" experiment with IWP-2 and HLY78 can produce consistent results. (3) Compared with the control group, the cell proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities of the UHRF1 overexpression group were enhanced. After IWP-2 treatment, the cell proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities were inhibited. Knockdown experiment exhibited the reverse results to overexpression experiment. Conclusion UHRF1 may play an important role in the occurrence and development of CRC. UHRF1 overexpression may be a poor prognostic factor for CRC patients. UHRF1 may affect the proliferation, migration, and invasion of CRC cells through the WNT/MMP9 signaling pathway.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the effects of KISS1 gene transfected by lentivirus on the proliferation,invasion and migration abilities of the colorectal cancer HCT116 cells,and to clarify their mechanisms.Methods:The human colorectal cancer cells with the lowest expression level of KISS1 gene were selected.The lentiviral vectors were builted and transfected the KISS1 gene,and the cells were divided into control group (treated with PBS),empty vector group (treated with empty vector) and over-expression group(treated with KISS1 gene vector).The multiplicity of infection (MOI) of the cells was detected by fluorescence microscope.Real-time PCR and Western blotting methods were used to detect the expression levels of KISS1 mRNA and protein(metastin);CCK-8 method was used to detect the proliferation ability of the cells;Transwell chambers method was used to detect the invasion and migration abilities of the cells.Results:Among LoVo,SW620,SW480,HCT-116,and HT29 cells,the expression levels of KISS1 mRNA and protein were lowest in HCT116 cells,so they were chosen as the research carrier.After transfected with lentiviral vectors,the HCT116 cells could stably express the enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP) gene,and the MOI was over 80%.Compared with control group and empty vector group,the expression levels of KISS1 mRNA and protein in the cells in over-expression group were significantly increased (P0.05).Conclusion:The KISS1 gene transfected by lentivirus vector can over-express KISS1 protein and inhibit the proliferation,invasion and migration abilities of the colorectal cancer cells,and the mechanism may be related to the expression of KISS1 protein.
RESUMEN
Objective To study clinical effect after laparoscopic abdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair methodwithout stapler. Methods 80 cases of inguinal hernia(hospitalized from February 2015 to January 2017)were divided into two groups according to the random number table method ,with 40 patients in each group. Traditional laparoscopic peritoneal inguinal hernia repair method was applied in the control group. Free stapler group received free stapler laparoscopic preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair treatment method. Operation time , amount of bleeding during surgery , the average hospitalization time after operation , the total cost of hospitalization,postoperative pain score,postoperative recovery activities time,patients′satisfaction,operation effusion after operation occurred scrotal hematoma and other complications were comparedbetween the two groups of patients. Results In free stapler group,patients′ satisfaction rate was significantly higher than the control group (P 0.05). Conclusion Operation time and amount of bleeding were similar between traditional laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair method and free stapler in laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair.Clinical effect of free stapler in laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair proves to be effective with less complications ,less pain, faster postoperative recovery, and can reduce the cost of treatment.Free stapler in laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair has satisfactory cosmetic results and was well received by patients,worthy of promotion.
