@#[摘 要] 目的：探讨lncRNA FLJ26245在前列腺癌组织和细胞中的表达及其对PC-3细胞增殖与迁移能力的影响及其分子机制。方法：选用2017年3月至2019年5月在洛阳中心医院手术切除的52例前列腺癌及相应的癌旁组织标本，以及前列腺细胞系LNCaP、C4-2B、PC-3、DU-145和正常前列腺上皮细胞RWPE-1，用qPCR法检测前列腺癌组织和细胞中FLJ26245的表达水平。分别将FLJ26245 mimic和阴性对照质粒（lncR-NC）转染到PC-3细胞中，用MTT法、细胞划痕愈合实验分别检测细胞的增殖和迁移能力。生物信息学技术预测和双荧光素酶基因报告实验验证FLJ26245与miR-200a-3p、酪氨酸磷酸酶受体G（PTPRG）三者之间的靶向关系。用qPCR和WB法分别检测FLJ26245下游基因及增殖与迁移相关蛋白的表达。结果：FLJ26245在前列腺癌组织和细胞中的表达水平分别显著低于癌旁组织（P<0.01）和RWPE-1细胞（P<0.01或P<0.05），以PC-3细胞中的表达水平为最低（P<0.01）。FLJ26245过表达可明显抑制PC-3细胞的增殖和迁移能力（P<0.05或P<0.01）。FLJ26245可与miR-200a-3p靶向结合，miR-200a-3p可与PTPRG靶向结合（均P<0.01）。FLJ26245过表达的PC-3细胞中miR-200a-3p表达水平显著降低（P<0.01）、PTPRG mRNA和蛋白表达水平均明显升高（均P<0.01），细胞中增殖和迁移相关蛋白cyclin A、CDK2和Twist、N-cadherin均显著降低（均P<0.01）。结论：FLJ26245在前列腺癌组织及细胞中均低表达，其可能通过miR-200a-3p/PTPRG轴调控前列腺癌PC-3细胞的增殖与迁移能力。
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the intervention effect of multiple nutritional health guidelines for school-aged children on the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) of primary school students in Chengdu.@*Methods@#A primary school in Chengdu, which had a school canteen, was selected as the intervention school, and another similar primary school was selected as the control school. Students from the intervention school received nutritional education for six months, while the control school did not provide such intervention measures. A total of 589 students from grades 3 to 5 were selected to participate in the questionnaire survey(eligible 558, missing 31).@*Results@#Before the intervention, no significant difference was found in the rate of awareness regarding nutritional knowledge, including dietary attitudes and dietary behavior. After the intervention, the rate of awareness of nutritional knowledge and the overall awareness rate reached more than 80% in the intervention group, which was significantly higher than that observed in the control group(P<0.05). The intervention group consumed less than one type of breakfast food(26.6%), which was less than the control group(49.4%). The frequency of weekly egg and milk consumption was higher in the experimental group than in the control group. The proportion of students who consumed three or more types of vegetables daily was higher in the intervention group than in the control group. The proportion of leftovers was lower in the intervention group (15.8%) than in the control group(57.9%).@*Conclusion@#The comprehensive nutritional education based on a variety of nutritional health guidelines for school-age children can enhance students awareness of nutritional knowledge and healthier dietary behaviors.

@#[Abstract] Objective: To explore the expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) GTSE1-AS1 in prostate cancer tissues and the mechanism that affects the proliferation and invasion of LNCaP cells. Methods: From November 2017 to December 2018, 68 pairs of prostate cancer tissue and para-cancerous tissue specimens were resected from prostate cancer patients at the Department of Urology of Luoyang Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University; in addition, prostate cancer cell lines LNCaP, PC-3, C4-2B, 22Rv1, DU-145 and normal prostate follicular epithelial RWPE-1 cells were also chosen for this study. qPCR was used to detect the expression level of GTSE1-AS1 in cancer tissues and cell lines. The GTSE1-AS1 over-expression plasmid (experimental group) and negative control plasmid (control group) were respectively transfected into LNCap cells. MTT assay and Transwell chamber method were used to detect the effect of GTSE1-AS1 over-expression on the proliferation and invasion ability of LNCaP cells, respectively. The targeting relationship among GTSE1-AS1 and miR-324-3P as well as FBXW7 (F-frame/WD repeat domain protein 7) was verified by bioinformatics tools and dual-luciferin reporter gene assay. The effect of GTSE1-AS1 over-expression on downstream gene and protein expression was detected by qPCR and WB assay. Results: The expression level of GTSE1-AS1 in prostate cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in para-cancerous tissues (P<0.01), and the expression of GTSE1-AS1 in prostate cancer cell lines was significantly lower than that in RWPE-1 cells (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Over-expression of GTSE1-AS1 significantly inhibited the proliferation and invasion (P<0.05 or P<0.01) of LNCaP cells. Dual-luciferin reporter gene assay confirmed the complementary binding between GTSE1-AS1 and miR-324-3p as well as between miR-324-3p and FBXW7. Over-expression of GTSE1-AS1 significantly reduced the expression of miR-324-3p in LNCaP cells (P<0.01), and promoted the mRNA and protein expressions of FBXW7 (all P<0.01). Conclusion: GTSE1-AS1 is under-expressed in prostate cancer tissues and cell lines. Over-expression of GTSE1-AS1 can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of LNCaP cells, the mechanism of which may be related with the inhibition of miR-324-3p to further promote FBXW7 expression.
ABSTRACT
@#Mitral valve disease is the most common cardiac valve disease. The main treatment of mitral valve disease is surgery or interventional therapy. However, as the anatomy of mitral valve is complicated, the operation is particularly difficult. As a result, it requires sophisticated experiences for surgeons. Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology can transform two-dimensional medical images into 3D solid models. So it can provide clear spatial anatomical information and offer safe and personalized treatment for the patients by simulating surgery process. This article reviews the applications of 3D printing technology in the treatment of mitral valve disease.
