Résumé
Objective:To probe into Rab25 Gene’s Effect on TGF-β inhibition of proliferation, invasion and epithelial mesenchymal transformation (EMT) of breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and explore its molecular mechanism.Methods:The experiment was divided into three groups: control group,TGF-β Group and si-Rab25 group. TGF-β induced MDA-MB-231 cell model of EMT was built. CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation. Transwell assay was used to detect the ability of cell invasion and migration.Western blot was used to detect the changes of related proteins in each group.Results:After stimulating MDA-MB-231 cells with TGF-β, Rab25 gene was highly expressed. Compared with TGF-β group (57.48±%3.62%), the migration ability and invasion ability of cells in si-Rab25 group (33.49%±2.93%) decreased by 41.7%, with a significant difference ( P<0.05). Compared with TGF-β group (153.21%±4.17%), the proliferation ability of cells in si-Rab25 group (115.32%±5.69%) decreased by 24.73%, with a significant difference ( P<0.05). The expression of MDA-MB-231 fine EMT related protein in si-Rab25 group was significantly different from that in TGF-β group ( P<0.05). The expression of p-AKT and Snail protein in si-Rab25 group was significantly lower than that in TGF-β group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Rab25 gene is highly expressed in MDA-MB-231 cells. Silencing Rab25 gene can activate AKT signal pathway, inhibit Snail protein expression, regulate EMT related protein expression, and inhibit EMT transformation.
Résumé
Afatinib is an irreversible inhibitor for the ErbB family of tyrosine kinases with oral administration. In two randomized, open-label and multinational phase III trials, the progression-free survival was significantly prolonged by afatinib compared with peme-trexed plus cisplatin (LUX-Lung 3) or gemcitabine plus cisplatin (LUX-Lung 6) in the treatment-naive patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC) with activating EGFR mutations. The patient-reported symptoms such as cough and dyspnoea, and certain health-related quality of life after the treatment by afatinib were also better than those treated by control dugs. Afatinib was ap-proved by FDA in July 2013 as the first-line treatment drug for the patients with metastatic NSCLC with EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 (L858R) mutations. The action mechanisms, pharmacokinetics, clinical trials and adverse events were reviewed in this paper.
Résumé
To investigate the effect of NVP-DPP728, a DPP-Ⅳ inhibitor on new-onset diabetes and the autoimmune response in non-obese diabetic ( NOD ) mice. Diabetes could be reversed in 75% of NVP-DPP728 treated 20 NOD mice. In these 15 mice with remission, insulitis scores were significantly lower than those of the control group. The percentage of Tregs was increased in the thymus and celiac lymph nodes, plasma TGF-β1 and GLP-1 were also significantly increased ( P＜0. 01 ). NVP-DPP728 treatment may reverse new-onset diabetes in NOD mice by reducing insulitis and increasing Tregs.
