二甲双胍对人胆管癌RBE细胞的作用及其机制

目的：探讨二甲双胍对人肝胆管癌细胞的增殖、凋亡和细胞周期的影响及机制。 方法：将人肝胆管癌RBE细胞分别用二甲双胍、Compound C（AMPK抑制剂）、二甲双胍+ Compound C处理,以未处理的RBE细胞作为空白对照,分别用MTT法检测细胞增殖、流式细胞仪检测细胞凋亡和细胞周期、Western blot检测细胞AMPK/mTOR通路蛋白的表达。 结果：与空白对照组比较,二甲双胍作用后的RBE细胞存活率降低;细胞凋亡率升高;G0/G1期比例增加,而S期比例减少;磷酸化AMPK（p-AMPK）蛋白表达上调,而磷酸化mTOR（p-mTOR）蛋白表达明显下调,差异均有统计学意义（均P<0.05）。二甲双胍与Compound C联合作用RBE细胞后,二甲双胍的上述作用均被取消,各项指标与空白对照组差异均无统计学意义（均P>0.05）。单独的Compound C作用RBE细胞后,各项指标未见明显改变,与空白对照组差异均无统计学意义（均P>0.05）。 结论：二甲双胍能抑制人胆管癌RBE细胞的增殖、促进凋亡和细胞周期阻滞,该作用可能其与激活AMPK从而抑制mTOR下游效应分子有关。

Up-regulation of miR-181a in clear cell renal cell carcinoma is associated with lower KLF6 expression,enhanced cell proliferation,accelerated cell cycle transition,and diminished apoptosis

Objectives

Dysregulated expression of miR-181a accompanies tumorigenesis in many human cancers. However, in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the role of miR-181a remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate biological functions of miR-181a and its expression levels in ccRCC tissues and cancer cell lines.

Adipose‐derived stem cells and keratinocytes in a chronic wound cell culture model: the role of hydroxyectoine

Chronic wounds represent a major socio‐economic problem in developed countries today. Wound healing is a complex biological process. It requires a well‐orchestrated interaction of mediators, resident cells and infiltrating cells. In this context, mesenchymal stem cells and keratinocytes play a crucial role in tissue regeneration. In chronic wounds these processes are disturbed and cell viability is reduced. Hydroxyectoine (HyEc) is a membrane protecting osmolyte with protein and macromolecule stabilising properties. Adipose‐derived stem cells (ASC) and keratinocytes were cultured with chronic wound fluid (CWF) and treated with HyEc. Proliferation was investigated using MTT test and migration was examined with transwell‐migration assay and scratch assay. Gene expression changes of basic fibroblast growth factor (b‐FGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), matrix metalloproteinases‐2 (MMP‐2) and MMP‐9 were analysed by quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR). CWF significantly inhibited proliferation and migration of keratinocytes. Addition of HyEc did not affect these results. Proliferation capacity of ASC was not influenced by CWF whereas migration was significantly enhanced. HyEc significantly reduced ASC migration. Expression of b‐FGF, VEGF, MMP‐2 and MMP‐9 in ASC, and b‐FGF, VEGF and MMP‐9 in keratinocytes was strongly induced by chronic wound fluid. HyEc enhanced CWF induced gene expression of VEGF in ASC and MMP‐9 in keratinocytes. CWF negatively impaired keratinocyte function, which was not influenced by HyEc. ASC migration was stimulated by CWF, whereas HyEc significantly inhibited migration of ASC. CWF induced gene expression of VEGF in ASC and MMP‐9 in keratinocytes was enhanced by HyEc, which might partly be explained by an RNA stabilising effect of HyEc.     

c-Kit mutation reduce intestinal epithelial cell proliferation and migration,but not influence intestinal permeability stimulated by lipopolysaccharide

The proto-oncogene c-kit, as a marker of interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) in the gastrointestinal tract, plays an important role in the ICCs. Although limited evidences showed c-kit is present in the colonic epithelium but its roles remain unclear. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the expression, location and function of c-kit in the intestinal epithelium. Immunofluorescence, western blotting, and RT-PCR were performed to detect the expression and location of c-kit in the intestinal mucosa of WT mice. We investigated intestinal epithelial proliferation and migration in vivo by performing 5-Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation and Ki-67 staining in WT and Wads ^m/m mice. An Ussing chamber with fluorescein-isothiocyanate dextran 4000 was used to detect the transepithelial electric resistance (TER), short circuit current (ISC) and permeability across ex vivo colon segments under control and endotoxaemia conditions. We demonstrated that c-kit was located and expressed in the gut crypt compartment in WT mice, which was demonstrated in the c-kit mutant mice (Wads ^m/m). In addition, both the number of proliferating cells and the percentage of the distance migrated were lower in the Wads ^m/m mice than those in the WT mice. Moreover, the intestinal permeability, TER and tight junction were unaltered in the Wads ^m/m mice under endotoxic conditions compared with those in both the control condition and the WT mice. Altogether, these observations imply that the expression of c-kit in the colonic epithelium is involved in the proliferation and permeability of the colonic epithelium.     

MicroRNA-539靶向调控E2F转录因子3抑制肝癌的发生与发展

目的 探讨肝癌组织中microRNA-539（miR-539）表达水平及其抑制肝癌细胞增殖的作用机制。方法 收集90例肝癌患者术后肝癌组织及癌旁组织标本,用实时定量聚合酶链反应（Real-time PCR）检测组织中miR-539表达量。在PCL/PRF5、Huh7和QGY-7701肝癌细胞中转染miR-539 模拟物（mimics）,用Real-time PCR检测miR-539表达量。用MTT法检测miR-539对肝癌细胞增殖的影响;用流式细胞仪检测miR-539对肝癌细胞凋亡的影响;用免疫印迹法检测miR-539对肝癌细胞中E2F转录因子3（E2F3）蛋白表达的影响。结果 肝癌组织中miR-539表达量显著低于癌旁组织（P<0.05）;miR-539表达量与肝癌患者性别、年龄及肝癌组织分化程度无关（P>0.05）;与肿瘤直径和淋巴结转移相关（P<0.05）。转染miR-539 mimics组肝癌细胞中miR-539表达量显著高于空白组和miR-539 NC组（P<0.05）。在QGY-7701细胞中,过表达miR-539能显著抑制细胞增殖（P<0.05）,降低E2F3蛋白的表达（P<0.05）,对细胞凋亡无明显作用（P>0.05）。结论 miR-539是肝癌发生中的抑癌因子,可能是通过靶向下调E2F3蛋白水平达到抑制癌细胞的增殖。
