Effects of recombinant human interleukin 11(rhIL-11) on proliferation, migration and invasion of pulmonary adenocarcinoma A549 cells / 天津医药

Objective To observe the effects of recombinant human interleukin 11(rhIL-11) on proliferation, migration and invasion of A549 cells, and the mechanism thereof. Methods Final concentrations of 0, 10, 20, 50 and 100μg/L rhIL-11 were added into pulmonary adenocarcinoma A549 cells. The cell proliferation was detected by MTT. The wound-healing, transwell migration assay were used to validate the capability of the migration and invasion of A549 cells. Matrix metallopro-teinases (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 protein expressions were revealed by Western blot assay. Results The proliferation of A549 cells was not significantly changed by rhIL-11. The cell capability to migrate and invade was significantly increased 24 h af-ter treatment with rhIL-11 (P<0.05). The expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were significantly un-regulated, and which were increased with the increased concentrations of rhIL-11 (P<0.05). Conclusion rhIL-11 can promote the migra-tion and invasion of A549 cells, and the up-regulation of MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression might be one of the mechanisms.

Relationship between effect of GP regimen prognostic significance and Nanog expression in advanced lung cancer / 肿瘤研究与临床

Objective To evaluate the correlation between the expression level of Nanog gene and clinical outcomes of GP regimen in the advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods 62 patients of NSCLC were treated by GP method,and the outcomes were investiged between Nanog positive and nagetive patients.The expression level of Nanong was evaluated by RT-PCR and immunohistology.Results 30 out of 62 patients (48.4 ％) were Nanog positive,9 patients (28.1％) were Nanog positive,and 23 out of 32 patients were Nanog negative (71.9 ％) who have the positive effect (CR+PR).However,among 32 treatment nagetive cases,there were 21 cases (70.0 ％) who were Nanog positive and 9 cases (30.0 ％) were Nanog negatve.Survival analysis showed that 5-years lifetime of Nanog positive patients was shorter than Nanong nagetive patients.Conclusion Nanog overexpression decreases the sensitivity of GP regimen and lifetime of NSCLC patient.Nanog expression level may provide a useful factor for clinical treatment and prognosis of NSCLC patient.
