Correlation evaluation between cancer microenvironment related genes and prognosis based on intelligent medical internet of things.

The study of tumor microenvironment plays an important role in the treatment of cancer patients. In this paper, intelligent medical Internet of Things technology was used to analyze cancer tumor microenvironment-related genes. Through experiments designed and analyzed cancer-related genes, this study concluded that in cervical cancer, patients with high expression of P16 gene had a shorter life cycle and a survival rate of 35%. In addition, through investigation and interview, it was found that patients with positive expression of P16 and Twist genes had a higher recurrence rate than patients with negative expression of both genes; high expression of FDFT1, AKR1C1, and ALOX12 in colon cancer is associated with short survival; high expressions of HMGCR and CARS1 is associated with longer survival; overexpression of NDUFA12, FD6, VEZT, GDF3, PDE5A, GALNTL6, OPMR1, and AOAH in thyroid cancer is associated with shortened survival; high expressions of NR2C1, FN1, IPCEF1, and ELMO1 is associated with prolonged survival. Among the genes associated with the prognosis of liver cancer, the genes associated with shorter survival period are AGO2, DCPS, IFIT5, LARP1, NCBP2, NUDT10, and NUDT16; the genes associated with longevity are EIF4E3, EIF4G3, METTL1, NCBP1, NSUN2, NUDT11, NUDT4, and WDR4. Depending on the prognostic role of genes in different cancers, they can influence patients to achieve the effect of reducing patients' symptoms. In the process of disease analysis of cancer patients, this paper uses bioinformation technology and Internet of things technology to promote the development of medical intelligence.

Bufotalin ameliorates ovalbumin-induced allergic rhinitis by restoring the Tregs.

BACKGROUND: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common inflammatory diseases. IgE, inflammatory cytokine production and Th17/Tregs imbalance have been implicated in AR pathogenesis. Bufotalin, a component extracted from toad venom skin secretions and auricular glands, has anti-inflammatory activity and regulates Th17/Tregs balance. Here, the effects of bufotalin on AR were explored. METHODS: The AR mice model was established using ovalbumin (OVA). AR mice were treated with bufotalin started on Day 22 with various doses (1, 10, 100 µg or 1 mg per mouse) every day to Day 30. The sneezing and rubbing frequencies were counted. Serum levels of IL-1ß, IL-10 and OVA-specific IgE were measured. The superficial cervical lymph nodes were harvested and the percentage of Tregs in lymph node was determined using CD4 and Foxp3 markers. RESULTS: OVA treatment successfully induced AR model in mice with significantly increased sneezing and rubbing frequency, elevated levels of serum histamine, IL-1ß, IL-10 and OVA-specific IgE. Bufotalin treatment significantly ameliorated AR symptoms, with reduced histamine, IgE and IL-1ß levels, as well as sneezing and rubbing frequency. Moreover, bufotalin treatment decreased the serum levels of IL-1ß, IL-10 and OVA-specific IgE in AR mice. CONLCUSION: Bufotalin ameliorated allergic rhinitis symptoms in AR mice by restoring Tregs in lymph node.

EphB3-targeted regulation of miR-149 in the migration and invasion of human colonic carcinoma HCT116 and SW620 cells.

microRNAs play key roles during various crucial cell processes such as proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis. Also, microRNAs have been shown to possess oncogenic and tumor-suppressive functions in human cancers. Here, we describe the regulation and function of miR-149 in colorectal cancer cell lines. miR-149 expression patterns were detected in human colorectal cell lines and tissue samples, and then focused on its role in regulation of cell growth, migration, invasion, and its target gene identification. Furthermore, the function of the target gene of miR-149 was analyzed in vitro and in vivo. miR-149 expression was downregulated in human colorectal cancer HCT116 and SW620 cell lines compared to the normal colon epithelial NCM460 cell line using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction methods. Further studies indicated that introduction of miR-149 was able to suppress cell migration and invasion. Then, EphB3 was identified as a direct target gene of miR-149 in colorectal cancer cells. Moreover, experiments in vitro showed that knockdown expression of EphB3 could suppress cell proliferation and invasion, and ectopic expression of EphB3 restored the phenotypes of CRC cell lines transfected with miR149. In addition, silencing of EphB3 significantly affected cycle progression distribution and increased apoptosis in CRC cell lines. Finally, in vivo results demonstrated that knockdown of EphB3 by siRNA inhibited tumor growth. In conclusion,the important role of miR-149 in colorectal cancer progression suggesting that miR-149 may serve as a therapeutic target for colorectal cancer treatment.
