Objective To elucidate the role and mechanism of tumor suppressor microRN (miRNA, miR)-149-5p in metastasis potentials of renal cell carcinoma. Methods GRC-1 cells were divided into miR-149-5p group(transfected with miR-149-5p mimics), miR-NC group(transfected with mimics control), miR-149-5p+ SRPK1 group(co transfected with miR-149-5p mimics and pcDNA3.1-SRPK1), miR-149-5p+ vector group(co transfected with miR-149-5p mimics and pcDNA3.1). The transfection efficiency of miR-149-5p was detected by real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The cell invasion and migration ability were measured by Transwell chamber. The levels of N-cadherin and E-cadherin proteins were detected by Western blotting. SRPK1 may be a target gene of miR-149-5p by using online target gene prediction software. Targeting relationship was identified by double luciferase reporting system. Results The levels of miR-149-5p (2.69±0.27 vs. 1.01±0.08) and E-cadherin (0.81±0.09 vs. 0.42±0.05)in the miR-149-5p group were significantly higher than those in the miR-NC group, and invasion number [(70.81±6.35) vs. (110.64±9.67)], migration number [(108.46±9.27)vs. (162.76±12.71)], N-cadherin (0.46±0.05 vs. 0.79±0.11)and SRPK1 (0.45±0.06 vs. 0.92±0.08)proteins levels were significantly lower than miR-NC group, and the difference was statistically significant (FmiR-149-5p=95.385, Finvasion number=20.216, Fmigration number=22.010, FN-cadherin=15.100, FE-cadherin=31.331, FSRPK1=31.785, P 0.05). The level of E-cadherin (0.45±0.04 vs. 0.80±0.08) in the miR-149-5p+ SRPK1 group was significantly lower than that in the miR-149-5p+ vector group, and the invasive number [(99.51±7.48) vs. (71.84±5.37)], migration number [(145.06±11.14) vs. (107.63±10.20)], N-cadherin (0.86±0.10 vs. 0.47±0.04) and SRPK1 (0.89±0.06 vs. 0.50±0.07) proteins levels were significantly higher than the miR-149-5p+ vector group, and the difference was statistically significant (tSRPK1=7.327, tinvasion number=5.205, tmigration number=4.292, tN-cadherin=6.272, tE-cadherin=6.778, P<0.05).

Objective To observe the levels of aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT) in lung tissue of children with congenital heart disease (CHD) pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) and its effect on proliferation and migration of human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (HPASMCs), and to investigate the action mechanism of ARNT in the pathogenesis of CHD-PAH. Methods Sixty patients with CHD ventricular septal defect-associated PAH were selected as CHD-PAH group and 60 children with CHD ventricular septal defect without PAH were selected as CHD group (CHD group) in our hospital. There were no significant difference in age and gender between the two groups. HPASMCs were divided into normoxia group and hypoxia group, which were induced by normoxia and hypoxia respectively. HPASMCs were divided into blank control group (BC group), negative control group (NC group) and siR-ARNT group. The cells in the siR-ARNT group were transfected with ARNT-shRNA lentivirus, and those in the NC group were transfected with negative control lentivirus. The cells in the BC group were not transfected. The expression levels of ARNT protein and mRNA in lung tissue and cells were detected by Western blotting and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The cell proliferation ability was determined by the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) method. Transwell and scratch assays were used to measure cell migration ability. SPSS 20.0 software was used for analysis. The test methods were t test and analysis of variance. Results The expression levels of ARNT protein and mRNA in lung tissue of CHD-PAH group (0.53±0.06 and 2.36±0.17) were significantly higher than those in CHD group (0.09±0.02, 1.00±0.12, t=53.889 and 50.626, P 0.05). Conclusion The ARNT levels in lung tissue of children with CHD-PAH are elevated. ARNT may participate in the development of CHD-PAH by affecting the proliferation and migration of HPASMCs.

Objective To investigate the effect of RNA binding protein 6 (RBM6) on the proliferation, migration and apoptosis of laryngeal cancer cells. Methods The expression of RBM6 protein was analyzed by Western blotting in 47 cases of laryngeal cancer and adjacent tissues. RBM6 overexpression cell line and control cell line (RBM6 group and control group) were constructed by RBM6 overexpression lentivirus and control lentivirus respectively. The proliferation of two groups was analyzed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). The migration was analyzed in RBM6 group and control group by scratch test. The apoptosis level in RBM6 group and control group was analyzed by flow cytometry. The growth of tumor cells in vivo in RBM6 group and control group was analyzed by allogeneic tumor transplantation. SPSS 13.0 statistical software was used to analyze the measurement data. Mean±SD was used to express the measurement data, and t-test was used to compare between groups. Results As compared with the level of RBM6 protein in adjacent tissues (1.01±0.23), the expression level of RBM6 protein (0.34±0.12) in laryngeal cancer significantly decreased (t=2.913, P<0.05). As compared with the control group, the cell proliferation ability of RBM6 group significantly decreased (F=3.019, P<0.05). As compared with the control group [(84.18±8.32)%], Scratch healing rate in RBM6 group [(30.11±6.89)%] significantly enhanced (t=4.319, P<0.05). As compared with the control group [(35.61±7.01)%], the apoptosis rate in RBM6 group [(5.23±2.12)%] significantly increased (t=2.192, P<0.05). The results showed that the proliferation rate of cells in the control group was significantly higher than that in the RBM6 group (F=2.908, P<0.05).

Objective To explore the effects of microRNA-155 (miR-155) expression on growth of osteosarcoma cells and the action mechanism. Methods Normal osteoblasts served as the control group and osteosarcoma cells as the experimental group. MiR-155 levels were examined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). The effects of miR-155 on proliferation of osteosarcoma cells and apoptosis were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and flow cytometry assays respectively. Real-time PCR and Western blotting were applied to investigate the target gene of miR-155 in osteosarcoma cells. T test was used for comparison between the two groups, and anova was used for comparison between multiple groups, P<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results MiR-155 expression was significantly up-regulated in osteosarcoma cells (U2OS, Saox-2 and MG-63) (5.10±0.32, 6.82±0.48 and 10.12±0.39) as compared with their matched normal parts (1.01±0.13, t=13.100, P<0.01). CCK-8 indicated that, compared with the negative control group (0.37±0.02, 0.58±0.02, 0.80±0.04), the A values of MG-63 cells were 0.49±0.03, 0.77±0.03, 0.93±0.02, respectively, at 48, 72 and 96 h after transfection with miR-155, and their proliferation capacity was significantly enhanced (t=11.200, P<0.05). Moreover, 48 h after transfeetion, the apoptosis rate of MG-63 cells in miR-155 treatment group was (0.90±0.13)%, significantly lower than in miR-control group [(5.92±0.80)%, t=17.900, P<0.05]. Conclusion Our data revealed that miR-155 may function as an oncogene in osteosarcoma development and it may also provide a therapeutic strategy for controlling osteosarcoma progression.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the worst digestive malignancies. The prognosis of this disease remains dismal since the facts that it is difficult to be diagnosed in early stage, has a low rate of surgical resection, and is not sensitive to conventional chemoradiotherapy. Exosomes are a kind of bilayer lipid bodies containing a variety of bioactive molecules, such as proteins, RNA, DNA, lipid, and exist stably in body fluids. As an important component in tumor microenvironment, exosomes are correlated with the malignant phenotype and chemoreistance of pancreatic cancer; as a potential diagnostic biomarker, exosome detection has potential application value in early diagnosis, efficacy evaluation, and tumor recurrence monitoring of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To explore the effect of microRNA (miRNA, miR)-762 on the drug resistance to gemcitabine (GEM) of pancreatic cancer PANC-1 cells. Methods Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect the expression of miR-762 mRNA in gemcitabine-resistant pancreatic cancer cell line PANC-1/GEM and the non-drug-resistant cell line PANC-1 of pancreatic cancer. The miR-762 mimics, miR-762 inhibitors and scramble sequences were transfected into PANC-1/GEM cells respectively with Lipofectamine™ 2000. The proliferation and the drug sensitivity of PANC-1/GEM cells to GEM were measured by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The apoptosis of PANC-1/GEM cells was examined by flow cytometry. The expression of apoptosis related proteins was detected by Western blotting. Results The miR-762 expression was significantly up-regulated in PANC-1/GEM cells (2.88±0.37) compared to that in PANC-1 cells (1.22±0.32) (t=7.340, P<0.01), and the difference is statistically significant. The miR-762 mRNA expression in PANC-1/GEM cells were obviously increased after transfection with miR-762 mimics in mimics group (4.96±0.67) as compared with negative control group (2.87±0.45) (t=-4.920, P<0.01), but markedly decreased after transfection with miR-762 inhibitors in mimics group (0.72±0.18) as compared with negative control group (2.87±0.45) (t=8.430, P<0.01). Meanwhile, A450, half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) and B cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (bcl-2), phosphorylated protein kinase B (p-Akt) and phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase 3β (p-GSK-3β) protein expression in miR-762 mimics group were significantly higher than those in negative control group after transfection, and apoptosis rate and bcl-2 associated X protein (bax) protein expression were significantly lower than those in negative control group after transfection. While A450, IC50 and bcl-2, p-Akt and p-GSK-3β protein expression in miR-762 inhibitors group were significantly lower than those in negative control group after transfection, and apoptosis rate and bax protein expression were significantly higher than those in negative control group after transfection (P<0.01). Conclusion The expression of miR-762 is up-regulated in pancreatic cancer drug resistant cells and can induce the cell proliferation and inhibit cell apoptosis in PANC-1/GEM cells, thus reducing the sensitivity of PANC-1/GEM cells to GEM, which may be associated with the inhibition of pro-apoptotic factor bax expression and the promotion of bcl-2, p-Akt and p-GSK-3β expression.

Objective To investigate the effect of microRNA-486 (miR-486) on alcoholic fatty liver disease in mice. Methods The progenies of miR-486 knockout mice were obtained by mating of heterozygotes. The 8-week-old progenies were divided into miR-486 knockout control group (KO-PAIR group), miR-486 knockout experimental group (KO-ETOH group), wild type control group (WT-PAIR group) and wild type experimental group (WT-ETOH group), 8 mice in each group. Th mice in experimental group were fed on 5% TP4030D alcohol feed, and those in TP4030C control group were fed on control feed for 4 weeks, 15 ml/mouse per day. On the last day of the experiment, the alcohol group was given alcohol (31.5%) intragastrically, and the control group was administered with dextrin, 100 μl each mouse. After 9 h, the mice were sacrificed and their liver tissues and serum were collected. Liver tissue sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and saturated oil red O. Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were determined. The mRNA and protein expression levels of lipid metabolism related molecules adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and acetyl-coA carboxylase-ser 79 (ACC) were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerization chain reaction and Western blotting, respectively. The severity of alcoholic fatty liver disease was evaluated and the mechanism was explored. Results HE staining and saturated oil red O staining showed that liver fatification was significantly aggravated in the WT-ETOH group as compared with the KO-ETOH group. As compared with the WT-ETOH group, serum levels of ALT, AST and TNF-α in the KO-ETOH group were significantly reduced [(124.875±38.591) U/L vs. (45.500±20.333) U/L, (190.750±23.789) U/L vs. (140.625±31.794) U/L, and (73.407±17.121) μg/L vs. (50.056±12.717) μg/L, F=32.503, 5.876 and 30.865, P<0.05]. The mRNA level of AMPK in the KO-ETOH group was significantly higher (0.61±0.09 vs. 1.06±0.11, F=21.249, P<0.01), and that of ACC was significantly lower (1.98±0.23 vs. 1.23±0.12, F=68.584, P<0.01) than in the WT-ETOH group, which was further confirmed by Western blotting (0.77±0.09 vs. 1.20±0.08, and 1.16±0.13 vs. 0.38±0.08, P<0.01).

In the control group, there were 145 males and 95 females; 121 cases under 50 years old and 119 cases over 50 years old, BMI <25 201 cases and BMI ≥25 39 cases, 176 cases without smoking history and 64 cases with smoking history, 169 cases without drinking history and 71 cases with drinking history, 224 cases without family tumor history and 16 cases with family tumor history. The genotypes of ERCC1 rs3212986 and ERCC2 rs13181 were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The relationship between each genotype and the risk of bladder cancer was explored. Results There was a statistically significant difference in the distribution of ERCC1 rs3212986 genotype between the two groups (χ2=6.010, P 0.05). Conclusion The ERCC1 rs3212986 gene polymorphism affects the occurrence of bladder cancer in the codominant and recessive models. The ERCC2 rs13181 gene polymorphism is not associated with the risk of bladder cancer. Key words: Bladder cancer; Gene polymorphism; Excision repair cross-complementing gene

Objective To investigate the expression of prostate cancer-associated transcript 6 (PCAT6) in the serum of hepatocarcinoma patients and its effect on the proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of Hep3B cells. Methods The qPCR method was used to detect the level of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) PCAT6 in serum and THLE-3, Hep3B and HepG2 cells. The Hep3B cells were randomly divided into blank control group (NC group), negative empty vector transfection group (si-con group) and lncRNA PCAT6 silencing group (si-PCAT6 group). Western blotting was used to detect the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-9, cleaved cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease (Caspase)-3, cleaved Caspase-9, phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K), phosphorylated-PI3K (p-PI3K), protein kinase B (Akt), and phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) proteins. The cell proliferation was measured by methyl thiazol tetrazolium (MTT) assay. The apoptosis was examined by flow cytometry, and the migration and invasion was tested detected by Transwell chamber method. The SPSS 21.0 software was used for statistical analysis, and the measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation (SD). Results The expression level of lncRNA PCAT6 in patients with moderate or high differentiation (60.94%) was significantly higher than that in patients with low differentiation (6.25%) (χ2=22.968, P<0.01). The percentage of patients with high expression of lncRNA PCAT6 in T-stage Ⅱ-Ⅳ (57.81%) was significantly higher than that in stage Ⅰ (9.38%) (χ2=8.529, P<0.01). The expression of lncRNA PCAT6 in Hep3B cells (3.72±0.67) and HepG2 cells (3.38±0.53) was significantly higher than that in THLE-3 cells (1.03±0.14) (t=9.322 and 8.144, P<0.05). The expression of lncRNA PCAT6 (0.21±0.11) in si-PCAT6 group was significantly lower than that in si-CON group (0.96±0.15) (t=9.915, P<0.05), and the cell viability was significantly reduced at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h (t=3.280, 6.144 and 6.373, P<0.05). Western blotting showed that the expression of cleaved Caspase-3, cleaved Caspase-9, p-pi3k and p-Akt increased significantly (t=11.408, 14.628, 8.683 and 9.585, P<0.01), and the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 decreased significantly in si-PCAT6 group (t=10.568 and 10.814, P<0.01). The apoptosis rate of Hep3B cells increased significantly (t=21.075, P<0.01), and the migration and invasion of Transwell cells decreased significantly (t=12.816 and 12.707, P<0.01). Conclusion The serum lncRNA PCAT6 is highly expressed in HCC patients, which is related to the degree of HCC differentiation and T stage. Silencing lncRNA PCAT6 can inhibit the biological behaviors of HCC probably by inhibiting the Akt signaling pathway activation.
