ABSTRACT
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Heat shock protein A2 has been reported to be tightly associated with tumorigenesis and tumor progression. This study aimed to determine the oncogenic and immunological roles of Heat shock protein A2 in pancreatic cancer by bioinformatics. METHODS: Expression of Heat shock protein A2 in tumorous and normal specimens of pancreatic cancer was analyzed using the Cancer Genome Atlas and the Cancer Genome Atlas + Genotype-Tissue Expression data sets, respectively. Relationships of Heat shock protein A2 expression with immune infiltrates in pancreatic cancer were assessed. Heat shock protein A2-associated coexpressed genes in pancreatic cancer were obtained, followed by the implementation of enrichment analysis. RESULTS: The data demonstrated that Heat shock protein A2 was significantly overexpressed in tumorous samples compared with normal samples. Heat shock protein A2 expression was remarkably positively interrelated with CD8+ T cell, neutrophil, dendritic cell, and macrophage, but not with CD4+ T and B cells. Heat shock protein A2 expression was markedly positively relevant to both cancer-associated fibroblast and endothelial cell. Enrichment data revealed that Heat shock protein A2 was intimately involved in the tumorigenesis and progression of pancreatic cancer. CONCLUSION: Heat shock protein A2 is upregulated in pancreatic cancer and is closely associated with tumor immunity and aggressive progression.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To study the expression of E6 and E7 mRNA in high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) HPV-18 and the relationship between the expression of invasive gene and cervical carcinoma.@*METHODS@#A total of 119 patients with cervical cancer, cervical erosion and cervical HPV infection who were diagnosed in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into two groups: cervical cancer group (n = 58) and non-cancerous group (n = 61). Another 60 patients with uterine leiomyoma were selected as normal control group. Detection of HPV18 E6, E7 mRNA expression and invasion, migration, proliferation inhibition genes, epithelial mesenchymal transition genes and proliferation related protein content.@*RESULTS@#The relative expression of E6 and E7 HPV-18 in cervical cancer group was significant higher than that in non-cancerous group and control group (mRNA) (P < 0.05). The content of TRAF6 and c-FLIP in invasive cervical cancer group was significantly higher than that in non-cancerous group and control group (P < 0.05). The mRNA content of CD44v6 and MMP-9 in cervical cancer group was significantly higher than that in non-cancerous group and control group (P < 0.05). The content of DEC-1, IKK16, MBP-1 in cervical cancer group was significant lower than that in non-cancerous group and control group (P < 0.05). The mRNA content of beta -catenin and Vimentin in cervical cancer group was significantly lower than that in non cancerous group and control group (P < 0.05). The proliferation related protein E2F1 of cervical cancer group was significantly lower than that of non-cancerous group and control group, Bmi-1 content was significantly higher than non-cancerous group and control group (P < 0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The expression of the detection of cervical cancer in high-risk human papilloma virus HPV-18 E6 and E7 mRNA, and the invasion, migration, proliferation inhibition gene, epithelial mesenchymal transition and proliferation related gene protein content, HPV expression rate of mRNA increased with the development of cervical cancer, the expression is also enhanced. The expression has a certain correlation between the level and development of cervical cancer. Through the above indicators, the development of cervical cancer monitoring and treatment to provide important clinical guidance.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To study the regulatory effect and molecular mechanism of juglone on apoptosis of cervical cancer Hela cells.@*METHODS@#Cervical cancer Hela cells were cultured and treated with different dosages of juglone (10, 20, and 40 μmol/L, respectively) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor SP600125 (10, 20, and 40 μmol/L, respectively). Then cellular proliferative activity and the expression of JNK/c-Jun pathway molecule and apoptotic molecule in the cells were detected.@*RESULTS@#After 6, 12, 18 and 24 h of treatment, the value for proliferative activity of cells treated with juglone was significantly lower than that of control group (P < 0.05), and the anti-proliferative effect was more significant as the treatment period and juglone dosage increased (P < 0.05). The protein expressions of Bax, CytC, Fas, FasL, Caspase-3, p-JNK and p-c-Jun in cells treated with juglone were significantly higher than those of control group (P < 0.05), and the protein expressions of Bax, CytC, Fas, FasL, Caspase-3, p-JNK and p-c-Jun increased more remarkably as the juglone dosage increased (P < 0.05). In cells treated with 40 μmol/L juglone and SP600125, the protein expressions of Bax, CytC, Fas, FasL and Caspase-3 were significantly lower than those of cells treated with 40 μmol/L juglone (P < 0.05), and the protein expressions of Bax, CytC, Fas, FasL and Caspase-3 reduced more remarkably as the SP600125 dosage increased (P < 0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Juglone can increase the expression of apoptotic molecules in mitochondrial pathway and death receptor pathway by activating JNK/c-Jun pathway, thus inducing apoptosis of cervical cancer cells.
