Objective To explore the clinical features,treatment and prognosis of malignant solid tumors in the digestive tract in children and adolescents. Methods Sixty-five children and adolescents with malignant solid tumors in the digestive tract from January 1997 to June 2017 were selected,who were treated at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University/Henan Cancer Hospital. The tumor site,gender,age,clinical presentations,treatment, follow-up time and their life status by deadline follow-up in 65 children and adolescents were collected respectively, and the clinical features,treatment methods and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed. The follow-up deadline was on December 31,2017. Results The most frequent sites of tumors were liver tumor(36 cases,55. 38%),followed by rectum tumor(11/65 cases,16. 92%),colon tumor(6/65 cases,9. 23%),pancreas tumor(5/65 cases,7. 69%),gas-tric(3/65 cases,4. 62%),esophagus (1/65 cases,1. 54%),gallbladder tumor (1/65 cases,1. 54%),ileum tumor (1/65 cases,1. 54%),and appendix tumor (1/65 cases,1. 54%). The prevalence rate in males and females was 1. 32:1. 00. The age of embryo tumor incidence was smaller,and the age of epithelium cancer incidence was older. The main symptoms included abdominal distension and pain (66. 15%,43/65 cases). Twenty-seven patients (41. 5%, 27/65 cases)was in stageⅣ. Radical and palliative surgery were the main treatment in 50 cases (76. 92%). The 1-year,3-year,5-year overall survival rates were 60. 7%,31. 0%,18. 8%,respectively. The overall survival rate of co-lon and rectal cancer was higher than that of hepatocellular cancer,and the differences were all statistically significant (χ2＝6. 268,P＝0. 012;χ2＝11. 772,P＝0. 001). The overall survival rate of patients who received surgery combined with chemoradiotherapy was the longest and those undergoing chemotherapy only was the shortest,but the differences had no statistical significance among 4 groups of sheer surgery,chemotherapy alone,surgery combined with chemothera-py and surgery combined with chemoradiotherapy(all P＞0. 05). Conclusion The malignant solid tumors in the di-gestive tract in children and adolescents have a poor prognosis. The unspecific presentation makes the diagnosis diffi-cult. It is very important to diagnose early and treat as soon as possible by the combination of surgery,chemotherapy and radiotherapy to improve the overall survival rate.

Objective To detect the expression levels of metallothionein1 H(MT1 H)in children and adoles-cents osteosarcoma serums,and to analyze its relationship with clinicopathological features,and to explore the effect of MT1 H on cell proliferation of osteosarcoma cells and its mechanism.Methods Enzyme -linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA)was performed to detect the expression of MT1 H in children and adolescents osteosarcoma serums and non-neoplastic disease serums.MT1 H vector was transfected into the osteosarcoma U2OS cells.Reverse transcription -poly-merase chain reaction(RT -PCR)and Western blot were used to detect the expression of the mRNA and protein of MT1 H,respectively.Methylthiazolyldiphenyl -tetrazolium bromide(MTT)was used to detect the cell growth.Western blot was performed to detect the expression of nuclear factor(NF)-κB,and inhibitor of κB (IκB)-αprotein. Results The expressions of MT1 H in osteosarcoma serums and nonneoplastic disease serums was (0.51 ± 0.52)μg/L and (2.17 ±0.78)μg/L,respectively,with a significant difference between the 2 groups(t =-8.966, P <0.05).The expression of MT1 H in stage Ⅰ -ⅡA andⅡB -Ⅲ was (1 .98 ±0.69)μg/L and (2.45 ±0.82)μg/L,respectively,showing a gradual increase depending on clinical staging(t =-2.343,P <0.05).The expressions of MT1 H mRNA and protein were elevated in osteosarcoma U2OS cells after MT1 H vector transfection(all P <0.05). MTT assay showed that,the A value in blank control group,blank vector group,MT1 H vector group were 0.38 ±0.03, 0.36 ±0.03,0.42 ±0.03,respectively,the cell proliferation in the MT1 H vector group was significantly promoted when compared with these in the blank vector group and blank control group(F =4.213,P <0.05)from the third day.West-ern blot showed that,the relative expression of NF -κB in blank control group,blank vector group,MT1 H vector group were 0.56 ±0.05,0.53 ±0.05,0.92 ±0.07,respectively,the relative expression of IκB -αprotein were 0.64 ± 0.06,0.62 ±0.09,0.34 ±0.08,respectively,the expression of NF -κB protein was up -regulated and the expression of IκB -αprotein was down -regulated in the MT1 H vector group when compared with those in the blank vector group and blank control group(F =44.581 ,14.927,all P <0.05).Conclusions The expression of MT1 H is increased in children and adolescents osteosarcoma serums compared with that in nonneoplastic disease serums.The clinical stage is later,the expression of MT1 H is higher.MT1 H promotes cell proliferation through regulating the NF -κB pathway.

Objective To establish the effect of curcumin on PTX-resistant esophageal cancer cell line EC9706/PTX and to investigate the mechanism of curcumin on the epithelial stromalization (EMT) of EC9706/PTX cells.Methods EC9706/PTX cells were established by medium concentration intermittent method.The drug resistance index and cross resistance were measured by MTT assay.The inhibitory effects of different concentrations of curcumin on EC9706/PTX cell proliferation were detected.The effects of curcumin on the morphological changes,migration and invasion of EC9706/PTX cells were examined by cytostatic staining,scratching and transwell invasion assay.The effects of curcumin on the expression of E-cadherin,N-cadherin,vimentin and fibronectin in EC9706/PTX cells at mRNA and protein levels were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot.The effect of curcumin on the expressions of NF-κB p65 and Snail in EC9706/PTX cells were detected by Western blot.Results The drug resistance index of EC9706/PTX was 28.4,which was cross-resistant to cisplatin and doxorubicin.Curcumin could inhibit the proliferation of EC9706/PTX cells.The migration and invasion of EC9706/PTX cells were significantly decreased under the action of curcumin at 20 μmol/L concentration.Fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis showed that the expression of Ecadherin was down-regulated and the expression of N-cadherin was up-regulated,and curcumin reversed this phenomenon.Western blot analysis showed that the expression of NF-κB p65 and Snail protein was enhanced after PTX-resistant generated in EC cell,but curcumin reversed this phenomenon.Conclusion Curcumin can inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of EC9706/PTX cells.The mechanism maybe that curcumin inhibits the NF-κB-Snail pathway.
