Résumé
Purpose@#miR-205 is a tumor suppressor and plays an important role in tumor invasiveness. However, the role of miR-205 in human gastric cancer (GC) epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism of miR-205 in the regulation of EMT in GC invasion. @*Materials and Methods@#Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to detect the expression of miR-205 in GC. Further, the correlation between the pathological parameters and prognosis of GC was statistically analyzed. A transwell model was used to evaluate the effect of miR-205-3p on the invasion and migration of GC cells. qPCR, western blotting, and luciferase assay were performed to analyze the relationship and target effects between miR-205-3p and the expression of zinc finger electron box binding homologous box 1 (ZEB1) and 2 (ZEB2). @*Results@#We found that the levels of miR-205-3p were significantly lower (P<0.05) in GC tissues than in matched normal tissues. Additionally, the expression of miR-205-3p was related to the tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, lymph node invasion, and tumor, node, metastasis stage. Patients with lower miR-205-3p expression levels in the tumors had a poorer prognosis. The in vitro assays indicated that miR-205-3p could affect the invasion ability and EMT of GC cells by targeting the expression of both ZEB1 and ZEB2. @*Conclusions@#miR-205-3p promotes GC progression and affects the prognosis of patients by targeting both ZEB1 and ZEB2 to directly influence EMT.

Objective To evaluate the adjuvant analgesia effect of the addition of dexamethasone to ropiva-caine in a transversus abdominis plane(TAP)block after inguinal herniorrhaphy. Methods 100 adult male pa-tients who underwent open tension-free inguinal herniorrhaphy from August 2015 to June 2017,randomized into two groups equally. TAP block with ropivacaine with additional dexamethasone was experiment group(group D) and with ropivacaine was control group(group C). Before the operation,all the patients were performed TAP block by the same group of surgeons. Celecoxib(200mg,Q12h,po)was prescribed to all patients in 48 hours after oper-ation. VAS and clinical symptoms were recorded. The sum and time of celecoxib consumption were also recorded af-ter 72 hours postoperatively. The surveys about the Carolinas comfort scale(CCS)of all the patients one week after operation were collected. Results The averaged pain score in 48 hours after operation has no statistical signifi-cance. The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting of group D is lower than group C,neither of them were statistically significant. The averaged CCS of group D was lower than group C;the difference was significant. Con-clusions Compared to single usage of ropivacaine in the single-shot TAP as a preemptive analgesia method for in-guinal herniorrhaphy,adding dexamethasone to ropivacaine didn′t show significance in analgesic intensity after in-guinal herniorrhaphy,though the adjuvant usage of dexamethasone reduced the sum and duration of other analgesic medications and enhanced the comfort of the patients after mesh-used herniorrhaphy.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the expression of tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) in the serum and the rectus abdominis muscle in patients with gastric cancer and its relationship with the nutritional status. Method Clinical data of 102 patients with gastric cancer (gastric cancer group) and 53 patients with benign abdominal disease (control group) who were admitted to Zhejiang Province People's Hospital from January 2008 to October 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to detect the serum expression of TWEAK. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of TWEAK in the rectus abdominis muscle. Relationship between TWEAK expression and nutritional status of gastric cancer patients was examined.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The relative expression level of TWEAK protein in serum of gastric cancer group and control group was 0.403±0.065 and 0.148±0.036 respectively. The relative expression of TWEAK mRNA in the rectus abdominis muscle tissue was 0.313±0.089 (gastric cancer group) and 0.118±0.005 (control group). The relative expression of TWEAK protein in the rectus abdominis muscle tissue was 0.197±0.064 (gastric cancer group) and 0.066±0.014 (control group), and the differences were statistically significant (both P=0.000). The high expression of TWEAK (high than median) in rectus abdominis muscle of gastric cancer patients was related to the percentage of more than 10% decline in body weight (P=0.000), the small percentage of ideal body weight at the time of admission (P=0.000), BMI<20 kg/m(P=0.023), higher NRS2002 nutritional risk screening score (P=0.000), lower prognostic nutrition index (P=0.000) and serum albumin <35 g/L (P=0.000).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The expression of TWEAK in serum and rectus abdominis muscle of gastric cancer patients up-regulates compared to non-tumor patients. The expression level of TWEAK in the rectus abdominis muscle of gastric cancer patients is closely related to poor nutritional status, suggesting that TWEAK may play a key role in the process of cachexia of gastric cancer patients.</p>

Objective To evaluate effects of alimentary reconstruction procedures (integral continual jejunal interposition, Billroth Ⅱ and isolated jejunal interposition) after subtotal gastrectomy on postoperative plasma gastrin, motilin and cholecystokinin. Methods Twenty-four dogs were divided into 3 groups undergoing distal subtotal gastrectomy and three different digestive tract reconstruction (integral continual jejunal interposition, Billroth Ⅱ and isolated jejunal interposition). The concentration of plasma gastrin, motilin and cholecystokinin were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay before and after operation. Results Two months after operation, plasma gastrin level of the integral continual jejunal interposition group (2. 2 ±0. 7 ) ng/L, ( 3.9 ± 0. 8 ) ng/L was significantly lower than that of preoperative both in fasting and postprandial state (3.8 ± 1.0) ng/L, (5.3 ± 1.6) ng/L, all P <0.05, but was significantly higher than other two groups in postprandial state (2. 7 ± 1.0) ng/L, (3.6 ±0. 6) ng/L, P <0. 05. Two months after operation, plasma motilin concentration of integral continual jejunal interposition group (577 ±204) ng/L, (1003 ± 209) ng/L were significantly higher than that of preoperative both in fasting and postprandial (429 ± 128) ng/L, (854 ± 218 ) ng/L, P < 0. 05. The postoperative plasma motilin of integral continual jejunal interposition group ( 1003 ± 209 ) ng/L was significantly higher than other two groups in postprandial state (840 ±205) ng/L, (986 ± 189) ng/L, P <0. 05. Two months after operation,plasma cholecystokinin concentration of integral continual jejunal interposition group ( 19.6 ± 2.0 ) ng/Lwere significantly higher than that of preoperative both in postprandial ( 19.0 ± 2. 0) ng/L, P < 0. 05. The postoperative plasma cholecystokinin of integral continual jejunal interposition group ( 19. 6 ± 2. 0) ng/L was significantly lower than other two groups (22.2 ± 2. 1 ) ng/L, (20. 1 ± 2. 5 ) ng/L, P < 0. 05. Conclusion Integral continual jejunal interposition after distal gastrectomy maintains the postoperative plasma motilin and gastrin in a relatively higher level and decreases the concentration of plasma cholecystokinin.
