Expression of LncRNA TCONS_00023867 in pancreatic cancer and its roles in biological functions / 中华内分泌外科杂志

Objective To verify the expression of long non-coding RNA(LncRNA) TCONS_00023867 in pancreatic cancer tissue and cells,and to explore its effects on cell proliferation,invasion and migration in pancreatic cancer cells.Methods The expression of lncRNA TCONS_00023867 in human pancreatic cancer tissues,adjacent non-cancer tissues,pancreatic cancer cells(Capan-2,AsPC-1,BxPC-3,MIAPaCa-2,PANC-1) and pancreatic normal duct epithelial cell (HPDE6c-7) was detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR).LncRNA TCONS_00023867 over-expression plasmid and its control plasmid PEX-3 were transfected in Capan-2 and PANC-1 cells.Then,the abilities of cell proliferation,invasion and migration were determined by using clone formation assay,CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay,respectively.Furthermore,the expression of p53 protein was examined by Western blot.Results The expression of IncRNA TCONS_00023867 in pancreatic cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in the matched adjacent pancreatic cancer tissue(△Ct value 13.64±0.55vs 8.64± 0.38,P＜0.001).Over-expression of TCONS_00023867,the experimental plate clone count of Capan-2 and PANC-1 cells were respectively lower than that in the empty plasmid vector PEX-3 group (181.3±4.667 vs 227.3± 9.207,P=0.011 2),(86.0±4.933 vs 167.2±2.603,P=0.000 1).The proliferation ability of Capan-2 and PANC-1 was significantly reduced compared with that of the empty plasmid vector PEX-3 group.The migration ability of Capan-2 and PANC-1 was significandy reduces compared with that of the group of empty plasmid vector PEX-3 (57.6±6.809 vs 124.6±8.548,P=0.003),(47.40±7.061 vs 105.2±10.28,P=0.001 7).The invasion ability of Capan-2 and PANC-1 was significantly reduced compared with that of the empty plasmid vector PEX-3 group (46.0± 5.033 vs 120.7±7.055,P=0.001),(64±8.327 vs 118.0±11.53,P=0.019 2).Through western blot experiment,the expression of p53 in Capan-2 and PANC-1 was higher than that in the group of empty plasmid vector PEX-3 (2.192± 0.077 3 vs 1.007±0.018 8,P=0.000 1),(1.816±0.163 vs 0.988±0.012 16,P=0.007 2).Conclusions The level of TCONS_00023867 is decreased in pancreatic cancer tissues and cells.Overexpression of TCONS_00023867 decreases cell proliferation,invasion and migration in pancreatic cancer ceils through increasing the level of p53.

Surgical treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms / 中华内分泌外科杂志

Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) are clinically rare,however,it shows an in creasing trend recent years.Surgical management,such as radical resection or debulking,plays an important role in this field.Different procedures can be applied to tumors with different types,locations,and developing stages.The optimal clinical management of pNENs involves a multidisciplinary approach in order to improve prognosis.
