@# Objective: To study the miR-28-3p expression in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) tissues and cell lines, and explore its effect on the malignant biological behaviors of MDA-MB-468 cells. Methods： ：Tumor tissues and matched para-cancerous tissues were collected from 83 TNBC patients, who underwent tumor resection and pathological confirmation in the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between Jan. 2013 and Jan. 2014. TNBC cell lines (MDA-MB-468, HCC-1937, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB436, MDA-MB-453) and human normal breast epithelial cell line MCF10A were also used in this study. qPCR was used to detect the expression of miR-28-3p in above mentioned tissues and cell lines. The correlation between miR-28-3p expression and clinical parameters was analyzed.After transfection with miR-28-3p inhibitor, the proliferation, apoptosis, invasion and migration ability of MDA-MB468 cells were detected with CCK-8, Flow cytometry, Transwell and Wound-healing experiment, respectively. And Western blotting was used to examine the protein expression of bridging integrator-1 (BIN1) in MDA-MB-468 cells. Bioinformatics BIN1 tool waere used to predict the target gene of miR-28-3p. Luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to validate the regulatory effect of miR-28-3p on BIN1. Results: The expression of miR-28-3p in TNBC tissues and cell lines was higher than that in matched paracancerous tissues and MCF10Acells (all P<0.01), respectively.Among the total 83 TNBC tissues, 56 (67.47%) showed high miR-28-3p expression. High expressionofmiR-28-3pwascloselycorrelated with the Ki-67 expression, tumor size and TNM stage (all P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with miR-NC group, transfection of miR-28-3p inhibitor significantly decreased the proliferation, invasion and migration of MDA-MB-468 cells while increased the apoptosis rate (all P<0.05 or P<0.01).

Conclusion: miR-28-3p is highly expressed in TNBC tissues and cell lines. miR-28-3p inhibitor up-regulates the expression of BIN1 to inhibit the proliferation, invasion and migration ability while promote the apoptosis of MDA-MB-468 cells.

lncRNA DGCR5 promotes the malignant biological behaviors of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma TE1 cells by up-regulating EGFR expression / 中国肿瘤生物治疗杂志

@#[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA DiGeorge syndrome critical region gene 5 (DGCR5) on proliferation, invasion and migration of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) TE1 cells and its mechanism. Methods: qPCR was used to detect the expression level of DGCR5 in ESCC cell lines (TE1, Yes-2, KYSE150 and Eca9706). TE1 cells were transfected with siRNA-DGCR5(si-DGCR5) and negative control (si-NC) plasmids, respectively. CCK-8, Wound healing and Transwell assay were used to detect the proliferation, migration and invasion of TE1 cells before and after DGCR5 knockdown. The relationship between DGCR5 expression and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in ESCC tissues was analyzed by GEPIA database. The mRNA and protein expressions of EGFR in ESCC cell line were examined by qPCR and Western blotting (WB). WB was further used to detect the expression of EGFR protein in TE1 cells before and after DGCR5 knockdown. Results: lncRNA DGCR5 was highly expressed in ESCC cell lines (all P<0.01). qPCR confirmed that the expression of DGCR5 in TE1 cells of si-DGCR5 group was significantly lower than that of si-NC group (P<0.01). The proliferation, migration and invasion ability of TE1 cells in si-DGCR5 group were significantly lower than those in si-NC group (all P<0.01). GEPIA database showed that the expression of DGCR5 was positively correlated with EGFR in ESCC tissues (P<0.01). WB showed that the protein level of EGFR in TE1 cells of si-DGCR5 group decreased significantly (P<0.01). Conclusion: lncRNA DGCR5 is highly expressed in ESCC cells, and promotes the proliferation, invasion and migration of TE1 cells possibly by up-regulating EGFR expression.

Expression and clinical significance of lncRNATTN-AS1 in lung adenocarcinoma / 中国肿瘤生物治疗杂志

@#[Abstract] Objective：To study the expression of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA) titin antisense RNA1 (TTN-AS1) in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) tissues, and explore its relationship with clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis of LUAD patients. Methods: The TTN-AS1 expression in LUAD data set was analyzed using TCGAdatabase. 52 pairs of tumor tissues and matched para-carcinoma tissues from LUAD patients, who underwent surgical resection and were later pathologically conformed in Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between Jan. 2014 and Jan. 2015, were used in this study. qPCR was performed to detect TTN-AS1 expression in the specimens. Then, the correlations between TTN-AS1 expression and clinicopathologic characteristics were analyzed. Survival analysis was used to determine the significance of TTN-AS1 expression for predicting the prognosis of LUAD patients. Results: TCGAdatabase analysis and qPCR results showed that TTN-AS1 expression in LUAD tissues was significantly higher than that in normal lung and para-carcinoma tissues (both P<0.01). TTN-AS1 expression in LUAD tissues was significantly correlated with the TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05), but not correlated with gender, age, tumor invasion range (P>0.05). Kaplan-Meier univariate analysis result demonstrated that the patients with high TTN-AS1 expression had shorter post-operative disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) than those patients with low TTN-AS1 expression (all P<0.01). Cox proportional hazard regression model result demonstrated that wider tumor invasion range, positive lymph node metastasis and high TTN-AS1 expression were significantly correlated with shorter postoperative DFS and OS (P<0.05). Conclusion: TTN-AS1 was highly expressed in LUAD tissues, and closely correlated with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis of LUAD patients (all P<0.05). High expression of TTN-AS1 is significantly correlated with shorter DFS and OS, indicating that TTN-AS1 may be a biomarker for predicting poor prognosis of LUAD patients.

Methods: The expression of DGCR5 in ESCC data set from TCGA database was analyzed by bioinformatics method. Sixty pairs of ESCC tissues and para-cancerous tissues resected at the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from August 2016 to March 2017 were collected for this study. The expression of DGCR5 in ESCC tissues was detected by qPCR. The correlation between the expression of DGCR5 and the clinicopathological features and prognosis of ESCC patients was analyzed. Results: TCGAdatabase analysis showed that the expression of DGCR5 in ESCC tissues was significantly higher than that in normal esophageal tissues (P<0.01). The expression of DGCR5 in ESCC tissues was significantly higher than that in para-cancerous tissues (P<0.01). The expression level of DGCR5 was significantly correlated with TNM staging and lymph node metastasis in ESCC patients (all P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier univariate analysis showed that the 2-year survival rate of ESCC patients with high DGCR5 expression was significantly lower than that of patients with low expression (P<0.05). Conclusion: DGCR5 is highly expressed in ESCC tissues and is closely related to TNM staging, lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis, which may serve as a molecular marker for early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of ESCC.

Transformation of malignant biological behaviors and PD-L1 expression in esophageal squamous cell carcinomaYES-2 cell induced by CDDPresistance / 中国肿瘤生物治疗杂志

@#[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the changes in malignant biological behaviors and expression of programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) YES-2 cell line after cis-dichlorodiammine platinum (CDDP) induction (YES-2/CDDP-R). Methods: YES-2 cells were treated with CDDP from low concentration to high concentration (0.25-2.0 μg/ml) with intermittent impact (15-25 days per concentration) to establish ESCC CDDP-resistant cell line YES-2/CDDP-R. The morphological change of YES-2/CDDP-R cells was observed under the inverted microscope. Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) was used to detect cell sensitivity to CDDP. Wound healing assay was used to detect cell migration ability. qPCR and Western blotting were used to detect mRNA and protein expressions of PD-L1. Results: After CDDP gradien ttreatment for9 months,YES-2/CDDP-R cells were successfully established. The morphology of the YES-2/CDDP-R cells showed uneven size, intracellular vacuoles and significantly increased black particles along with the appearance of huge cells. The IC50 of CDDP for YES-2/CDDP-R cells was significantly higher than that for parental cells, indicating decreased sensitivity to CDDP (P<0.05). Compared to theYES-2 cells, the proliferation and migration of YES-2/CDDP-R cells were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the mRNA and protein expressions of PD-L1 were significantly up-regulated (all P<0.001). Conclusion: YES-2 cells with CDDP resistance (YES-2/CDDP-R) were successfully established. The sensitivity of YES-2/CDDP-R cells to CDDP was significantly reduced while the abilities of cell proliferation and migration were enhanced. The up-regulation of PD-L1 in YES-2/CDDP-R cells suggests that CDDP-resistance could promote immune escape by inducing PD-L1 up-regulation.

@#[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the effects and mechanisms of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) non-coding RNA-activated by DNA damage (NORAD) on the proliferation and migration of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) EC9706 cells. Methods: RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression level of NORAD in different ESCC cells (EC9706, TE1, YES-2, KYSE150). Small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting NORAD gene was transfected into EC9706 cells (as si-NORAD group) with RNA interference technique to knockdown NORAD expression; in addition, blank control group (as Ctrl group, without any transfection) as well as negative control group (as NC group, transfected with siRNAnegative control sequence)werealsoestablished. qPCR was used to verify the transfection efficiency. MTT, Colony formation assay and Wound-healing test were used to detect the abilities of proliferation and migration of EC9706 cells before and after NORAD knockdown. Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of E-cadherin, N-cadherin and Snail in EC9706 cells before and after NORAD knockdown. Results: NORAD mRNAwas highly expressed in 4 ESCC cell lines. Comparing with TE1, YES-2 and KYSE150 cells, the expression of NORAD mRNA was significantly higher in EC9706 cells (P<0.01). After transfection of NORAD-siRNA into EC9706 cells, the expression of NORAD was down-regulated significantly as comparing with Ctrl group and NC group (all P<0.01), in the meanwhile, the proliferation and migration abilities of EC9706 cells were also significantly suppressed (P<0.05).After NORAD knockdown, the expression of E-cadherin was up-regulated while the expressions of N-cadherin and Snail were down-regulated in EC9706 cells (all P<0.05). Conclusion: NORAD is highly expressed in EC9706 cells;knockdown of NORAD expression can inhibit the proliferation and migration ability of EC9706 probably through up-regulating E-cadherin and down-regulating N-cadherin and Snail.

@# Objective: To explore the roles and mechanisms of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 6 (SNHG6) in promoting invasion and metastasis of esophageal squamous carcinoma (ESCC). Methods: Real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to detect the expression of SNHG6 in ESCC and matched para-carcinoma tissues. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was performed to detect the expression of SNHG6 in ESCC cell lines (TE1, Yes-2, Eca9706 and Kyse150). Then, TE1 cell line which harbored highest expression of SNHG6 was used in following experiments. siRNAs were used to knock down the expression of SNHG6. Clone formation, wound-healing and transwell assay were used to detect the abilities of proliferation, migration andinvasionofTE1cells,respectively.Westernblottingwasusedtodetecttheexpressions of MMP-2, MMP-9andZEB1 protein before and after knockdownofSNHG6inTE1cells.Results:SNHG6washighlyexpressedinESCC tissues, compared to para-carcinoma tissues (P<0.01). The expression of SNHG6 was significantly decreased after transfection of SNHG6siRNA (all P<0.01). The abilities of proliferation, migration and invasion of TE1 cells in si-SNHG6-1 and si-SNHG6-2 group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01). The expressions of ZEB1, MMP-2and MMP-9 in si-SNHG6-1 and si-SNHG6-2 group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: SNHG6 is highly expressed in ESCC tissues and promotes the malignant biological behavior of ESCC cells. Its mechanism of promoting the occurrence and development of ESCC may be related to the upregulation of ZEB1 expression.

@# Objective: To study the expression of miR-142-5p in lung adenocarcinoma tissues, and to explore its effect on proliferation, invasion, migration and epithelieal-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of H1650 cells and the potential mechanisms. Methods:Atotal of 107 pairs of lung adenocarcinoma tissues and corresponding para-cancerous tissues from patients, who underwent tumor resection and were pathologically confirmed at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between Jan. 2014 and Jan. 2015, were collected for this study; in addition, human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines (H1650, HCC827, A549, H1975, PC9) and human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells were also used in this study. qPCR was used to detect the expression of miR-142-5p in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and cell lines. The correlation between expression of miR-142-5p and clinical features was analyzed.After transfection with miR-142-5p mimics or miR-negative control (miR-NC) plasmid, the proliferation, invasion and migration of H1650 cells were detected with CCK-8, Transwell invasion assay and Wound healing assay, respectively. The bioinforamtics tool was used to predict the target genes of miR-142-5p, and Luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to validate the regulation of miR-142-5p on target gene. Western blotting (WB) was used to detect the expressions of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) and EMTrelated protein. Results: Compared to Para-cancerous tissues and BEAS-2B cells, the expression of miR-142-5p was lower in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and cell lines (all P<0.01). Of the 107 cases of lung adenocarcinoma tissues, 61 cases (57.01%) showed decreased miR-142-5 expression, which was correlated with the TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (both P<0.01). Transfection of miR-142-5p mimics significantly up-regulated the expression of miR-142-5p and decreased the proliferation, invasion and migration of H1650 cells (all P<0.05 or P<0.01). Bioinformatics showed that CDK5 was a target gene of miR-142-5p. Luciferase reporter gene assay and WB validated that miR-142-5p could significantly down-regulate CDK5 expression in H1650 cells, up-regulate the expression of E-cadherin and down-regulate the expressions of N-cadherin, Twist and Snail in H1650 cells (all P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-142-5p is low expressed in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and cell lines; it suppresses the EMT process to inhibit, invasion and migration of H1650 cells via down-regulating the expression of CDK5.

@# Objective: To investigate the effect and mechanism of bridging intergrator-1 (BIN1) on expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells. Methods: Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRTPCR) and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of BIN1 and PD-L1 in A549 cells and normal human embryo lung fibroblast 2BS cells, respectively. Eukaryotic expression plasmid CMV-MCS-GFP-SV40-Neomycin-BIN1 containing human full length BIN1 gene sequence was transfected into A549 cells via cationic liposomes by using gene transfection technology (as BIN1+group); c-MYC-siRNAwas used to knockdown the expression of c-MYC inA549 cells through RNAinterference technique (as cMYC-siRNA group). The transfection efficiencies were verified by qRT-PCR and Western blotting, the effects of BIN1 over-expression and c-MYC knock-down on the expression of c-MYC and PD-L1 in A549 cells were detected as well. Results: Comparing with 2BS cells, the expression of BIN1 was down-regulated in A549 cells at both mRNA and protein levels, while the expression of PD-L1 was up-regulated (all P<0.05). The expression of BIN1 was increased at both mRNA and protein level in BIN1+ group, while the expression of PD-L1 was decreased significantly after B1N1 transfection (all P<0.05). After transfection of c-MYC-siRNA into A549 cells, the expression of c-MYC and PD-L1 in c-MYC-siRNAgroup was down-regulated significantly (all P<0.01). Conclusion: Over-expression of BIN1 could reduce the expression of PD-L1 by inactivating the c-MYC pathway, thereby inhibiting the immune escape ofA549 cells.
