RESUMEN
AIM:To investigate the effect of interference in Yes-associated protein(YAP)expression on blad-der cancer cell apoptosis and its mechanisms.METHODS:Bladder cancer cell line T-24 was used as the target and divid-ed into control group(no treatment),small interfering RNA negative control(siRNA-NC)group,and YAP siRNA group. The expression levels of YAP at mRNA and protein levels in the transfected cells of each group were detected by real -time PCR and Western blot,respectively.The cell viability was measured by MTT assay.The apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry.The protein expression levels of β-catenin and c-Myc were determined by Western blot.The cells in YAP siRNA group were treated with Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway inhibitor FH 535, and then the cell viability and apoptosis were analyzed by MTT assay and flow cytometry,respectively.RESULTS:The expression of YAP at mRNA and protein levels in YAP siRNA group was significantly lower than that in control group(P<0.05).The cell viability and the expression levels of c-Myc and β-catenin in YAP siRNA group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05),while the apoptotic rate was significantly higher than that in control group(P<0.05).The cell viability in YAP siRNA+FH535 group was decreased significantly,while the apoptotic rate was increased as compared with YAP siRNA group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Interfering with the expression of YAP inhibits the viability of bladder cancer cells by inhibiting the Wnt /β-catenin signaling pathway,thus promoting apoptosis of bladder cancer cells.
RESUMEN
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common complication of diabetes mellitus in nervous system. However, the pathogenesis is still unkown. Therapeutic options are mainly pathogenetically oriented therapy and symptomatic therapy. With an increasing understanding of the pathogenesis of DPN, many new therapies have emerged. Comprehensive therapy targeting different pathogenesis will be frequently applied in the future. In this article, the common therapy and advance in treatment of DPN are reviewed.
