ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the role of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) in the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer cells and to explore its mechanism.Methods SGC7901 and KATO-Ⅲ gastric cancer cells were co-cultured with BM-MSCs respectively,and the invasion ability of SGC7901 and KATO-Ⅲ gastric cancer cells were detected by Transwell assay.Secondly,CD133 + and CD133-cells were sorted from KATO-Ⅲ gastric cancers and co-cultured with BM-MSCs respectively to compare their changes in invasiveness.Meanwhile,the expressions of p-AKT and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) relative factors in gastric cancer cells were detected by Western-blot.The role of CD133 in BM-MSCs affecting the ability of invasion of gastric cancer cells was further vertified by the overexpression of CD133 in SGC7901 cells.SPSS17.0 software was used for statistical processing,and the stand deviation of the measurement data were expressed as the standard deviation,independent sample t test was conducted.Results The invasiveness of co-cultured SGC7901 and KATO-Ⅲ cells was significantly enhanced.The invasive ability of KATO-Ⅲ CD133+ cells co-cultured with BM-MSCs tended to increase more significantly than that of co-cultured CD133 cells[(259.0 ± 24.0)vs (58.0 ±5.6),P ＜ 0.001].The expressions of p-AKT,Snail and N-cadherin were significantly increased in co-cultured CD133+ cells (P =0.003,P =0.003,P =0.002),while the expression of E-cadherin was reduced (P =0.021).After co-cultured with BM-MSCs,the expression of E-cadherin was also reduced in CD133-cells (P =0.005),but the expressions of p-AKT,Snail and N-cadherin were no significantly changes (P =0.744,P =0.277,P =0.295).SGC7901 co-cultured with BM-MSC after overexpression of CD133 showed higher i nvasiveness than blank control group[(239.3 ± 24.0) vs (103.3 ± 15.5),P ＜ 0.001].The expressions of p-AKT,Snail and N-cadherin were significantly increased when co-cultured with BM-MSCs in the group of CD133 overexpression (P =0.001,P =0.001,P =0.001),while the expression of E-cadherin was significantly decreased(P =0.003).The expressions of Snail and N-cadherin were also significantly increased after co-cultured with BM-MSCs in the blank control group (P =0.001,P =0.004),and the expression of E-cadherin was significantly decreased (P =0.018),while the expression of p-AKT was not significantly changed (P =0.193).Conclusions BM-MSCs can enhance the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer cells by promoting the EMT of gastric cancer cells.CD133 may be involved in the regulation of EMT in gastric cancer cells through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the curative effect of tissue-selecting therapy stapler and procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids in the treatment of patients with stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ hemorrhoids.Methods The patients with stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ hemorrhoids who underwent prolapse and hemorrhoids or tissue-selecting therapy stapler surgery in the department of General Surgery,Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital and Xinhua Hua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,Chongming Branch,from Jan.2013 to Jun.2014 were accepted and allocated to prolapse and hemorrhoids or tissue-selecting therapy stapler group.The peri-operative parameters about operative time,blood loss,postoperative hospital stay and the time required to return to normal activity were compared by t test,The postoperative complications including pain assessment and the incidence of postoperative bleeding,urine retention,faecal urgency,fecal incontinence,anal stenosis,rectovaginal fistula and recurrence rate were compared by t test and chi-square test.Rank sum test was used to compare the recurrence rate and patient's satisfaction between the two groups.Results The operation time,intraoperative bleeding volum,postoperative hospital stay and the time required to return to normal activity in the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids group were signifcantly higher than those in the tissue-selecting therapy stapler group (P =0.021,P =0.003,P =0.001,P ＜0.001).The pain score of procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids group were all higher than those of the tissue-selecting therapy stapler group in the first post-operative defecation and in post-operative 24 hours and 72 hours (all P ＜ 0.001).The incidence of faecal urgency of the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids group in post-operative 1 month (18.6％) was higher than that of the tissue-selecting therapy stapler group (6.6％) (P =0.036).There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of postoperative bleeding,urinary retention,recurrence rate and patient's satisfaction between two group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Tissue-selecting therapy stapler was superior to the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids in operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative pain and the incidence of faecal urgency.Long-term results demonstrate that tissue-selecting therapy stapler and prolapse and hemorrhoids have similar effectiveness.

ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the regulatory mechanism of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSC) on the biological profiles of KATO-III( cell lines of gastric cancer.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Transwell cubicle was applied to build the co-cultured model in non-contact style. The differences of cell proliferation and the resistance of anti-tumour drug (5-fluoropyrimidinedione, 5-FU and Cisplatin, CDDP) between co-cultured group and single cultured group were evaluated by Cell Counting Kit 8-assay(CCK-8). The invasion ability was detected by Transwell assay. The expressions of stem cell makers, apoptosis-related factors and epithelium-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related factors were detected by RT-PCR.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The proliferation ability of KATO-III( cells in co-cultured group was significantly stronger than that in single cultured group. The growth rate of KATO-III( cells in co-cultured group was significantly higher than that in single cultured group after treatment of 5-FU and CDDP(P<0.05). The mRNA expression level of Bcl-2 was significantly higher in co-cultured group KATO-III( cells(P<0.05), while the mRNA expression level of Bax was significantly lower in co-cultured group KATO-III( cells(P<0.05) in comparison with those in single cultured group. As compared to KATO-III( cells in single cultured group, the number of infiltrating-membrane cells was significantly higher (37.33±5.22 vs 14.56±2.54, P<0.01) in co-cultured group, and the mRNA expression levels of Snail and N-cadherin were significantly higher in co-cultured group KATO-III( cells (P<0.05), while the mRNA expression level of E-cadherin was significantly lower in co-cultured group KATO-III( cells (P<0.05). The expressions of CD133, Nanog and Sox-2 mRNA in co-cultured group KATO-III( cells were significantly higher than those in single cultured group(P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>In co-cultured model sharing non-contact style, BMSC can enhance such properties of KATO-III( gastric cancer cells as the proliferation, the invasion and the chemoresistance. Furthermore, the regulatory mechanisms may be related to the increase of the expressions of some stem cell markers in gastric cancer cells.</p>

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of CXCR4 and CD133mRNA in primary lesion of primary gastric adenocarcinoma and the relation with clinicopathological features,and to explore the correlation of CXCR4 and CD133.MethodsThe primary lesion of primary gastric adenocarcinoma and normal tissues adjacent to gastric cancer were obtained from 50 patients.The diction of CXCR4 and CD133 protein expression was detected by the immunohistochemical staining,and the relative gray scale values of CXCR4 and CD133mRNA by semi-quantitative RT-PCR (Fisher' s exact probability method).Their relationship with clinicopathological features was also investigated ( Spearman relation analysis).ResultsThe positive rates of CXCR4 and CD133 protein in gastric cancers were 76.0％ and 66.0％ respectively,which were significantly higher than that in normal tissues adjacent to gastric cancer ( 16.0％ and 10％ ; P =0.000,P =0.000).The increment of relative gray scale values of CXCR4mRNA was associated with the larger tumor diameter,the later TNM stage and the occurrence of lymphatic metastasis( P ＜ 0.05 ).And the larger diameter of tumor,the later TNM stage were associated with the higher relative gray scale values of CD133mRNA (P ＜0.05).The levels of the relative gray scale values of CXCR4 mRNA and CD133mRNA were positively related(r =0.453,P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsThe higher expression of CXCR4 and CD133mRNA correlateswith tumour diameter,TNM stage and lymphatic vessel invasion. The relative gray scale values of CD133mRNA increase with the increment of the relative gray scale values of CXCR4.
