RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To predict and verify the target gene of miR-200c-3p and evaluate the inhibitory effect of miR-200c-3p on the proliferation of nephroblastoma cells.@*METHODS@#The putative target genes of miR-200c-3p were predicted by bioinformatics approach. Nephroblastoma cell models with miR-200c-3p overexpression or knockdown were established in SK-NEP-1 and G401 cells with corresponding control groups. The expressions of CCNE2 in SK-NEP-1 and G401 cells in different groups were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting. A luciferase reporter assay was used to determine the targeting relationship between miR-200c-3p and CCNE2. The effects of miR-200c-3p overexpression or knockdown on cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and soft agarose assay.@*RESULTS@#CCNE2 was one of the target genes of miR-200c-3p as predicted by bioinformatics methods. Transfection of the two nephroblastoma cell lines with miR-200c-3p mimic resulted in significantly lowered CCNE2 mRNA and protein expressions ( < 0.05). The results of dual-luciferase assay confirmed that miR-200c-3p bound to the 3'UTR of CCNE2. CCK-8 assay and soft agarose assay demonstrated that overexpression of miR-200c-3p significantly inhibited the proliferation of the nephroblastoma cells ( < 0.01), and knocking down miR-200c-3p in the cells produced the opposite effects.@*CONCLUSIONS@#miR-200c-3p overexpression inhibits the proliferation of nephroblastoma cells by down-regulating its target gene CCNE2.
RESUMEN
Objective To understand the characteristics of hydatidiform mole (HM) in recent years in Guangdong area. Methods We analyzed statistically the clinical pathological characteristics of 432 cases with HM in Guangdong area from 2000 to 2016 and compared them with the characteristics of cases before 2000. Results Of the total,the rate of partial hydatidiform mole(PHM)reached 75.9％ and it was higher than that of complete hydatidiform mole. The incidence of PHM was higher than that before 2000. The highest proportion of cases was found in women aged from 21 to 25 and the menopause-time of the cases decreased when compared with that in 1990s,which indicated that early detection and early diagnosis of hydatidiform mole was increased. Vaginal bleeding was still a common accompanying symptom. The cases with history of pregnancy exceeded the cases without by 15.7 times;the pluriparas exceeded the nulliparae by 1.4 times and the cases with abortion history exceeded the cases without by 2.8 times in the incidence of HM. Conclusions Since 2000,HM has been dominated by PHM in Guangdong;the diagnosis time is advanced and the patients aged from 21 to 25 are in the majority. Previous pregnancy is an important risk factor for HM in Guangdong.

RESUMEN
To establish a model of inactivation adenosine A2A receptors in brain tissues of mice, we transplanted bone marrow cells (BMCs) from wild type (WT) C57BL/6 mice into A2A receptor knockout (A2A KO) C57BL/6 mice which were previously fractionated total body irradiation of 6.2 Gyx2. Six weeks later, we identified and evaluated the model. The results showed that the sexual chromagene pattern on white blood cells of recipient mice changed from female pattern to male pattern and there were 95.9% of A2AR+ cells in peripheral white blood cells of recipient mice, whereas there was no significant difference of A2AR mRNA level in brains between these recipient mice and A2AR KO mice. Furthermore, there was no significant difference of breathing frequency, brain water content and level of glutamate between the model mice and WT mice. These results indicated that we established successfully a mouse model of inactivation adenosine A2A receptors in brain tissues. This may provide a new and efficient strategy to study the effect of adenosine A2A receptors in disease and injuries of central nervous system.
