Helicobacter pylori induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition in gastric carcinogenesis via the AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a main risk factor for gastric cancer (GC). Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is involved in the development and progression of H. pylori-associated GC. However, the exact molecular mechanism of this process remains unclear. The AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway has been demonstrated to promote EMT in several types of cancer. The present study investigated whether H. pylori infection induced EMT, and promoted the development and metastasis of cancer in the normal gastric mucosa, and whether this process was dependent on AKT activation. The expression levels of the EMT-associated proteins, including E-cadherin and N-cadherin, were determined in 165 gastric mucosal samples of different disease stages by immunohistochemical analysis. The expression levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, AKT, phosphorylated (p-)AKT (Ser473), GSK3β and p-GSK3β (Ser9) were further determined in H. pylori-infected Mongolian gerbil gastric tissues and cells co-cultured with H. pylori by immunohistochemical analysis and western blotting. The results indicated that the expression levels of the epithelial marker E-cadherin were decreased, whereas the expression levels of the mesenchymal marker N-cadherin were increased during gastric carcinogenesis. Their expression levels were associated with H. pylori infection. Furthermore, H. pylori infection resulted in downregulation of E-cadherin expression and upregulation of N-cadherin expression in Mongolian gerbils and GES-1 cells. In addition, an investigation of the associated mechanism of action revealed that p-AKT (Ser473) and p-GSK3β (Ser9) were activated in GES-1 cells following co-culture with H. pylori. Furthermore, following pretreatment of the cells with the AKT inhibitor VIII, the expression levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, p-AKT and p-GSK3β did not show significant differences between GES-1 cells that were co-cultured with or without H. pylori. The levels of p-AKT and p-GSK3β were increased in H. pylori-infected Mongolian gerbils. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that H. pylori infection activated AKT and resulted in the phosphorylation and inactivation of GSK3β, which in turn promoted early stage EMT. These effects were AKT-dependent. This mechanism may serve as a prerequisite for GC development.     

T3、T4期结直肠癌淋巴结转移危险因素分析

目的探讨T3、T4期结直肠癌患者淋巴结转移危险因素,为临床诊疗提供参考。方法回顾性分析2008年1月至2017年12月在空军军医大学西京消化病医院行结直肠癌根治术的1112例T3、T4期结直肠癌患者的临床病理资料,分析淋巴结转移状态与临床病理因素及肿瘤标志物的相关性,应用logistic多因素回归法分析淋巴结转移的相关危险因素。结果单因素分析结果显示,性别、年龄、肿瘤部位分层的结直肠癌患者间淋巴结转移率差异均无统计学意义(均P>0.05),淋巴结转移率在不同肿瘤长径[<5 cm和≥5 cm分别为37.75%(211/559)、52.26%(289/553),χ^2=23.666,P<0.01]、大体类型[浸润、溃疡、蕈伞、隆起分别为37.04%(20/54)、47.52%(432/909)、34.33%(23/67)、69.51%(57/82),χ^2=13.787,P=0.003]、分化程度[高、中、低分化分别为34.11%(102/299)、49.00%(317/647)、48.80%(81/166),χ^2=19.771,P<0.01]、错配修复缺陷(dMMR)[是和否分别为26.34%(64/243)、50.17%(436/869),χ^2=43.996,P<0.01]、神经侵犯[是和否分别为48.17%(421/874)、33.20%(79/238),χ^2=16.954,P<0.01]、脉管侵犯[是和否分别为79.16%(338/427)、23.65%(162/685),χ^2=327.493,P<0.01]以及术前癌胚抗原(CEA)[阳性(≥5 mg/ml)和阴性(<5 mg/ml)分别为52.87%(249/471)、39.16%(251/641),χ^2=20.162,P<0.01]和CA199[阳性(≥35 U/ml)和阴性(<35 U/ml)分别为59.33%(124/209)、41.64%(376/903),χ^2=21.465,P<0.01]分层患者间差异均有统计学意义。logistic多因素回归分析显示,脉管侵犯和术前CA199阳性是T3、T4期结直肠癌患者淋巴结转移独立危险因素(OR=13.006,95%CI 9.329~17.276,P<0.01;OR=2.194,95%CI 1.513~3.181,P<0.01),dMMR阳性是淋巴结转移的保护性因素(OR=0.279,95%CI 0.190~0.411,P<0.01)。结论脉管侵犯是T3、T4期结直肠癌患者淋巴结转移的主要危险因素。术前肿瘤标志物CA199的检测可以作为预测T3、T4期结直肠癌患者淋巴结转移状态的指标,一定程度上可为诊疗方案的制订提供参考。     

延安地区泌尿系结石成分分析的研究

目的利用红外光谱法测定延安大学附属医院泌尿外科手术获得的泌尿系结石成分,探讨延安地区泌尿系结石成分与年龄、性别等关系,比较上、下尿路结石成分特点,分析延安地区泌尿系结石发生的流行病学情况,为临床制定有效的个体化治疗及预防措施提供参考依据。方法收集2013年1月至2017年1月在延安大学附属医院泌尿外科治疗1984例尿路结石患者的年龄、性别、结石部位等临床资料,对比分析延安地区泌尿系结石在不同年龄、不同性别、不同解剖部位的分布特点。结果在1984例泌尿系结石的患者中,按每10岁年龄大小分组排序,统计各年龄阶段泌尿系结石发病情况,男性患者有1346例,女性患者有638例,男性年龄(50.23±14.48)岁,女性年龄(47.87±14.51)岁,男、女患者比例约2.11∶1。在66~75岁年龄段,尿路结石发病率性别差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结石成分以混合性结石为主,以混合性结石为主,共1582例,占79.76%。其中1665例(83.92%)为上尿路结石,上、下尿路结石的比例为5.22∶1,其余为肾结石合并膀胱结石。上尿路结石中男性1062例,女性603例,男女比例为1.76∶1;下尿路结石中男性284例,女性35例,男女比例为8.11∶1。青壮年(年龄≤45岁)泌尿系结石患者草酸钙为主结石、感染性结石多见;中老年(年龄>45岁)泌尿系结石者草酸钙为主结石、尿酸类结石多见。感染性结石患者性别差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论在延安地区男性较女性更容易患泌尿系结石。同时,不同年龄段结石构成成分具有差异。对于年龄≤45岁患者,主要以草酸钙为主结石、感染性结石多见,这与结石整体发病率基本一致;而对于年龄>45岁患者,主要以草酸钙为主结石、尿酸性结石多见。表明对于不同年龄段的结石患者,可以根据上述结果在结石的预防和治疗上综合考量,给予明确而更加合理的治疗。
