RESUMEN
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) can play essential roles in tumor development, including glioblastoma (GBM). The current study was performed to explore the function and mechanism of circ_0027446 in GBM progression. Circ_0027446, microRNA-346 (miR-346) and Phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1) levels were detected using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay. Cell behaviors were examined using Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, colony formation assay, EdU assay, flow cytometry, and transwell assay. Glycolytic metabolism was analyzed by commercial kits. The protein level was determined via western blot. The target interaction was analyzed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Circ_0027446 function in vivo was explored by tumor xenograft assay. Circ_0027446 expression was significantly up-regulated in GBM samples and cells. Circ_0027446 down-regulation suppressed proliferation, invasion, glycolytic metabolism and enhanced apoptosis of GBM cells. MiR-346 was a target of circ_0027446, and circ_0027446 promoted GBM progression by sponging miR-346. PGK1 acted as a target gene of miR-346, and circ_0027446 interacted with miR-346 to regulate PGK1 expression. Overexpression of miR-346 inhibited malignant behaviors of GBM cells through down-regulating PGK1. Circ_0027446 contributed to tumor growth in vivo via miR-346/PGK1 axis. The current evidences demonstrated that circ_0027446 facilitated malignant progression of GBM through binding to miR-346 to up-regulate PGK1.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the clinical experiences of microsurgical and endovascular treatments of complicated arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the conditions of hybrid operating room. METHODS: The clinical data were collected and analyzed for 8 patients of complex AVM between June 2012 to June 2013. There were Spetzler grade III (n = 2) and grade IV (n = 6). And the lesions were complicated with intracranial aneurysms (n = 3) and located in motor area (n = 2) and basal ganglia (n = 2). Five cases of AVM with cerebral hemorrhage underwent emergency surgery, including digital subtraction angiography (DSA) plus intraoperative embolization plus surgical resection of AVM plus intraoperative DSA (iDSA). Two cases underwent embolization plus aneurysm surgery while another had AVM embolization plus AVM resection and γ knife treatment. RESULTS: All surgical procedures, including iDSA, were completed in the same hybrid operating room. There was no change of surgical position or intraoperative mortality. Five patients of AVM hemorrhage undergoing emergency hematoma evacuation had no residue of AVM on iDSA. Their postoperative consciousness improved without neurological dysfunction. Two patients of limb paralysis recovered to paresis at 3 months postoperation. One case with blurry vision improved somewhat. Two cases undergoing elective surgery had a complete resection of AVM after embolization. CONCLUSION: Surgery plus endovascular treatment in hybrid operating room is efficacious for complex cerebral AVM. It avoids multiple surgeries and inspections. And any lesion residue may be assessed immediately with postoperative DSA.
