@#[摘 要] 目的：探讨干扰B7-H4表达对乳腺癌细胞增殖、凋亡、周期以及相关下游分子表达的影响。方法：利用脂质体转染技术分别将特异性靶向B7-H4的siRNA（siB7-H4）及其阴性对照（siNC）转染至对数生长期的乳腺癌T47D和MCF-7细胞，分别命名为T47D-siB7-H4、T47D-siNC、MCF-7-siB7-H4和MCF-7-siNC组。用qPCR法和WB法验证siRNA干扰效果及其对细胞周期分子cyclin D1表达的影响，CCK-8法和FCM分别检测干扰B7-H4表达对T47D和MCF-7细胞增殖、周期和凋亡的影响，qPCR法检测B7-H4干扰对E2F家族相关转录因子表达的影响。结果：成功构建干扰B7-H4表达的乳腺癌T47D和MCF-7细胞。与T47D-siNC和MCF-7-siNC组相比，T47D-siB7-H4和MCF-7-siB7-H4组细胞中B7-H4 mRNA和蛋白表达水平均显著降低、细胞增殖能力显著降低（均P<0.01），并伴有G1/S期细胞周期阻滞以及cyclin D1表达下调（均P<0.01），但细胞凋亡率差异无统计学意义（均P>0.05）。与T47D-siNC相比，干扰B7-H4后T47D细胞中E2F1、E2F2、E2F7和E2F8 mRNA水平有不同程度的降低（均P<0.01）；与MCF-7-siNC相比，干扰B7-H4后MCF-7细胞中E2F1、E2F2、E2F3、E2F7和E2F8 mRNA水平均有不同程度的降低（P<0.05或P<0.01）。结论：干扰乳腺癌细胞B7-H4表达可下调cyclin D1和E2F家族相关转录因子的表达，导致细胞周期阻滞并抑制细胞增殖。
ABSTRACT
@# Objective: To investigate the effect of enolase 1 (ENO1) expression on proliferation, apoptosis and migration of lung cancer PC14 cells. Methods: ENO1 over-expression vector-pcDNA3.1/ENO1 was constructed and transfected into PC14 cells at logarithmic growth phase with liposome LipofectamineTM 2000. G418 was used to screen PC14 cells that stably expressing ENO1. The effects of ENO1 over-expression on proliferation, migration and apoptosis of PC14 cells were detected by CCK-8 method, scratch-healing assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Results: The ENO1 over-expression cell model was successfully constructed. Compared with PC14-vehicle and wild-type PC14 cells, the mRNA and protein expression levels of ENO1 in PC14-ENO1 cells were significantly elevated (all P<0.05), and the proliferation of PC14-ENO1 cells was significantly increased (all P<0.05). The relative mobility of PC14ENO1 cells was significantly higher than that of pcDNA3.1-vehicle cells and wild-type PC14 cells ([13.26±1.13]% vs [8.46±1.11]%, [7.86±1.00]%, both P<0.05). There was no significant difference in apoptotic rate among PC14-ENO1, PC14-vehicle and PC14 cells (all P> 0.05) Conclusion: Over-expression of ENO1 promotes proliferation and migration of lung cancer PC14 cells.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES: Pathological complete response has shown a better prognosis for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer after preoperative chemoradiotherapy. However, correlations between post-chemoradiotherapy clinical factors and pathologic complete response are not well confirmed. The aim of the current study was to identify post-chemoradiotherapy clinical factors that could serve as indicators of pathologic complete response in locally advanced rectal cancer. METHODS: This study retrospectively analyzed 544 consecutive patients with locally advanced rectal cancer treated at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from December 2003 to June 2014. All patients received preoperative chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to identify post-chemoradiotherapy clinical factors that are significant indicators of pathologic complete response. RESULTS: In this study, 126 of 544 patients (23.2%) achieved pathological complete response. In multivariate analyses, increased pathological complete response rate was significantly associated with the following factors: post-chemoradiotherapy clinical T stage 0-2 (odds ratio=2.098, 95% confidence interval=1.023-4.304, p=0.043), post-chemoradiotherapy clinical N stage 0 (odds ratio=2.011, 95% confidence interval=1.264-3.201, p=0.003), interval from completion of preoperative chemoradiotherapy to surgery of >7 weeks (odds ratio=1.795, 95% confidence interval=1.151-2.801, p=0.010) and post-chemoradiotherapy carcinoembryonic antigen ≤2 ng/ml (odds ratio=1.579, 95% confidence interval=1.026-2.432, p=0.038). CONCLUSIONS: Post-chemoradiotherapy clinical T stage 0-2, post-chemoradiotherapy clinical N stage 0, interval from completion of chemoradiotherapy to surgery of >7 weeks and post-chemoradiotherapy carcinoembryonic antigen ≤2 ng/ml were independent clinical indicators for pathological complete response. These findings demonstrate that post-chemoradiotherapy clinical factors could be valuable for post-operative assessment of pathological complete response.
