目的 探讨干扰LINC00707对食管癌细胞生物行为的影响及分子机制.方法 选取51例食管癌患者癌组织及癌旁正常组织,用实时荧光定量-聚合酶链反应(RT-qPCR)检测LINC00707和miR-382-5p的表达水平;将食管癌细胞EC9706随机分为对照(con)组、si-LINC00707组、si-NC组、miR-382-5p组、miR-NC组、anti-miR-382-5p组、anti-miR-NC组、si-LINC00707+anti-miR-382-5p组;用四甲基偶氮唑盐(MTT)比色法检测细胞活性;克隆形成实验检测细胞克隆形成数;流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡率;划痕实验检测细胞迁移距离;Western印迹法检测蛋白表达;双荧光素酶报告实验检测LINC00707和miR-382-5p的靶向关系.结果 与癌旁正常组织相比,食管癌组织中LINC00707表达水平升高,miR-382-5p表达水平降低,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);且LINC00707和miR-382-5p表达水平呈负相关(P<0.05).干扰LINC00707或过表达miR-382-5p后,EC9706细胞活性降低,克隆形成数减少,细胞凋亡率升高,细胞迁移距离缩短,Bax表达水平升高,Bcl-2表达水平降低,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05).抑制miR-382-5p表达与过表达miR-382-5p对EC9706细胞的作用相反.且抑制miR-382-5p表达逆转了干扰LINC00707对EC9706细胞的作用.LINC00707靶向调控miR-382-5p.结论 干扰LINC00707可能通过上调miR-382-5p抑制食管癌细胞的恶性生物学行为.
Objective:To investigate the relationship between the serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), prostate specific antigen (PSA) and bone metastasis in initially diagnosed prostate cancer (PCa) patients in different ISUP(International Society of Urological Pathology)groups.Methods:The 368 initial diagnosed prostate cancer patients recruited from January 2013 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including 247 cases in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, 111 cases in the Yuebei People's Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Shantou University and 10 cases in Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University. According to whether there was bone metastasis at the initial diagnosis, it was divided into 230 cases in the bone metastasis group and 138 cases in the non bone metastasis group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in age [(71.9±9.4) years and (71.2±8.7) years], body mass index (BMI) [(23.1±3.7) kg/m 2 and (23.7±2.6) kg/m 2]. There were significant differences in PSA [(307.3±847.0) ng/ml and (84.5±257.3) ng/ml] and ALP [(174.5±270.8) U/L and (71.0±23.2) U/L] between the two groups. In different PSA subgroups, there were 45 cases in PSA <10 ng/ml, 35 cases in PSA 10-20 ng/ml and 288 cases in PSA >20 ng/ml. The differences of ALP and PSA between bone metastasis group and non-bone metastasis group based on different ISUP stratification were analyzed, ROC curves were used to predict their risks of bone metastasis. Results:There were 3(1.3%), 22(9.6%), 34(14.8%), 85(37.0%) and 86 (37.4%) prostate cancer patients with bone metastasis from ISUP group 1 to 5, and 14(10.1%), 19(13.8%), 29(21.0%), 32(23.2%) and 44(31.9%) without bone metastasis, respectively. There was significant difference in the serum ALP levels between the bone metastasis group and the boneless metastasis group in the ISUP group 4(157.6±207.7 vs. 66.5±17.0) and 5(189.4±257.5 vs. 69.2±18.4)( P<0.001) and PSA levels had difference in the ISUP group 3(240.3±313.0 vs. 42.4±42.1), 4(152.3±184.5 vs. 44.7±33.3) and 5(435.2±1006.3 vs. 60.8±84.8)( P<0.001). There was statistically significant between the bone metastasis group and the without(336.1±882.2 vs. 139.3±328.1) when PSA>20 ng/ml( P=0.006). ROC curve analysis: the cut-off values of ALP were 115.5, 109.0, 75.5 and 86.0 U/L from ISUP group 2 to 5 respectively, the sensitivity was 23.8%, 56.5%, 66.4% and 50.6% respectively, the specificity was 99.7%, 93.4%, 78.3% and 89.2% respectively, and the accuracy were 59.4%, 73.1%, 69.7% and 63.3%, respectively. The cut-off values of PSA were 39.5, 93.1, 54.2 and 28.9 ng/ml from ISUP group 2 to 5 respectively, the sensitivity was 64.4%, 68.4%, 87.4% and 88.3% respectively, and the specificity was 79.5%, 90.6%, 63.7% and 61.6% respectively, and the accuracy were 71.6%, 78.1%, 80.1% and 79.2%, respectively. Conclusion:ALP increased significantly in ISUP group ≥4 and PSA in ISUP group ≥3, which related to bone metastasis in patients with initial diagnosed prostate cancer.
Objective To explore the effects of hsa-miR-96 to A549. Method A549 were transfected with miR-96 inhibitor/mimics and shRNA-mTOR. The proliferation were detected by MTT,the expression of p21, cyclin D1,p-4E-BP,S6K were detected via RT-PCR and WB. The luciferase assay were used to anaylse the target of miR-96. Result With or without metformin treated,up-regulated the expression of miR-96 could inhibit A549 proliferation,increase p21 expression and decrease cyclin D1 expression instead. The results may related with G1 arrest which induced by miR-96 up-regulation. The ratio of firefly fluorescence value/Renilla fluorescence value was lower than that in wild type NC or mutant group. Conclusion miR-96 target with mTOR to inhibit the growth of A549.
