Résumé
Clinical studies have confirmed that cryoablation is a safe and effective treatment for lung cancer. Cryoablation has been clinically used in the treatment of various types of lung cancer,and has achieved good therapeutic effects. Some of the complications of cryoablation can be alleviated after symptomatic treat-ment. However,cryoablation still needs further research and exploration in clinical applications.
Résumé
Hippo signaling pathway plays an important role in the growth and regeneration of animal organs. Studies have shown that the misexpression of Hippo signaling pathway composed of yes-associated protein and trascriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif is involved in the development of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)and has synergistic effect with mutant p53. In addition,its overexpression leads to drug resistance in lung cancer treatment and inhibition of its expression may benefit cancer patients. The expression and role of Hippo signaling pathway in NSCLC are described in detail,which is expected to provide a new direction for targeted therapy of lung cancer.
Résumé
In order to investigate the transfer and expression of Snail gene in human bone mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and to study effects of Snail gene modification on the CXCR4 expression of human MSCs and their capacity of migration to SDF-1 in vitro, the plasmid PCAGGSneo-Snail-HA or the control vector of PCAGGSneo was transferred into the cells. Fluorescence activated cell sorting analysis, immunofluorescence staining and RT-PCR were used to study the expression of CXCR4 by MSCs. Chemotaxis assays were performed to evaluate the migratory capacity of MSCs-Sna and MSCs-neo to SDF-1 in vitro. For the blocking assay, CXCR4 blocking antibody was added into cell culture. CXCR4 expression was higher in MSCs-Sna than that in MSCs-neo (P < 0.05). Chemotaxis assays showed that SDF-1alpha stimulated migratory activity of MSCs-Sna more than MSCs-neo in vitro (P < 0.05). Moreover, the SDF-1alpha-induced migratory activity of MSCs-Sna was inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner by a CXCR4-blocking antibody. It was concluded that Snail enhanced expression of CXCR4 in MSCs, providing a plausible mechanism for Snail-mediated MSCs transmigration to damaged tissues in vivo where SDF-1 has been shown to be up-regulated as part of injury responses.
