文摘The tumor suppressor p53 is a transcription factor with a powerful antitumor activity that is controlled by its negative regulator murine double minute 2(MDM2,also termed HDM2 in humans)through a feedback mechanism.At the same time,TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancers.Mutant p53 proteins lose wild-type p53 tumor suppression functions but acquire new oncogenic properties,among which are deregulating cell proliferation,increasing chemoresistance,disrupting tissue architecture,and promoting migration,invasion and metastasis as well as several other pro-oncogenic activities.The oncogenic p53 mutation Y220C creates an extended surface crevice in the DNA-binding domain destabilizing p53 and causing its denaturation and aggregation.This cavity accommodates stabilizing small molecules that have therapeutic values.The development of suitable small-molecule stabilizers is one of the therapeutic strategies for reactivating the Y220C mutant protein.In this review,we summarize approaches that target p53-Y220C,including reactivating this mutation with small molecules that bind Y220C to the hydrophobic pocket and developing immunotherapies as the goal for the near future,which target tumor cells that express the p53-Y220C neoantigen.
文摘目的研究长链非编码RNA(long non-coding RNA,LncRNA)LINC01137在非小细胞肺癌(nonsmall cell lung cancer,NSCLC)免疫逃逸中的生物学功能及其潜在的调节机制。方法采集24例健康志愿者和24例NSCLC患者血液样本,并收集NSCLC肿瘤组织和癌旁组织检测LINC01137水平。利用Starbase数据库预测LINC01137与miR-22-3p的结合位点,荧光素酶报告基因分析进行验证。采用A549细胞来源的外泌体和/或sh-LINC01137干扰序列转染A549细胞,检测细胞增殖和侵袭能力;收集转染后的细胞上清液培养CD8^(+)T细胞,检测CD8^(+)T细胞耗竭标志物干扰素-γ(interfereron-γ,IFN-γ)、肿瘤坏死因子-α(tumor necrosis factor-α,TNF-α)、颗粒霉素B(granzyme B)和白细胞介素-2(interleukin-2,IL-2)水平,以及PD-1+Tim3^(+)CD8^(+)T细胞百分比。采用外泌体和/或miR-22-3p模拟物(miR-22-3p mimic)转染CD8^(+)T细胞,检测PD-1蛋白水平。结果与癌旁组织相比,NSCLC肿瘤组织中LINC01137表达(3.357±0.548 vs 1.011±0.371)明显升高;与健康志愿者相比,NSCLC患者外周血LINC01137表达(3.216±0.342 vs 1.007±0.313)亦明显升高,差异具有统计学意义(t=-17.367,-17.147,均P<0.001)。肿瘤组织LINC01137表达与外周血中LINC01137表达呈正相关(r=0.755,P<0.05)。在A549细胞来源的外泌体中LINC01137显著富集。与Exo+sh-NC组相比,Exo+sh-LINC01137组细胞活力(65.852%±4.715%vs 100.153%±11.934%)及细胞侵袭(21.464%±3.481%vs 43.126%±1.447%)能力显著降低,差异具有统计学意义(t=4.630,9.953,均P<0.01)。NSCLC患者外周血中LINC01137表达和CD8^(+)T细胞百分比呈负相关(r=-0.520,P<0.05)。与Exo+sh-NC组相比,Exo+sh-LINC01137组IFN-γ(3865.314±543.852 pg/ml vs 1786.971±105.982 pg/ml),TNF-α(4631.930±510.715pg/ml vs 1973.242±379.623pg/ml),Granzyme B(3876.496±312.438pg/ml vs 1879.439±287.584pg/ml)和IL-2 mRNA水平(3.286±0.437 vs 1.015±0.314)升高,PD-1+Tim3^(+)CD8^(+)T细胞百分比(7.680%±2.185%vs 18.952%±3.216%)降低,差异具有统计学意义(t=-6.497,-7.237,-8.146,-7.310,5.021,均P<0.01)。miR-22-3p是LINC01137的靶基因。与Exo+NC mimic组相比,Exo+miR-22-3p组PD-1蛋白水平(0.384±0.087 vs 1.003±0.147)显著降低,差异有统计学意义(t=6.277,P<0.01)。结论NSCLC患者肿瘤组织及外周血中LINC01137表达显著上调;NSCLC细胞来源的外泌体中LINC01137通过靶向CD8^(+)T细胞中miR-22-3p并抑制其表达,诱导CD8^(+)T细胞耗竭,促进NSCLC细胞免疫逃逸。
文摘工程结构在制造工艺过程中或使用期间会产生裂纹,对结构断裂路径的预测和研究是防治工程安全问题发生的重要手段。在考虑裂纹尖端应力场常数项T应力的基础上对传统的最大周向应力准则(Maximum tangential stress criterion,MTS)和最小应变能密度因子准则(Minimum strain energy density criterion,SED)进行修正,采用Python语言对ABAQUS的前、后处理和有限元计算模块进行二次开发,通过计算最优解的粒子群算法(Particle swarm optimization,PSO)将修正后的准则编入裂纹自动扩展程序脚本中。利用上述二次开发程序对初始纯Ⅰ型裂纹的扩展路径进行模拟,结果表明:采用ABAQUS脚本程序模拟结果与相关文献实验结果吻合,表明了程序的有效性,进而实现考虑T应力的多种断裂准则对裂纹扩展路径的预测;当T应力值处于一定范围内时,修正的MTS准则无法预测裂纹发生的偏转现象,扩展路径呈直线,此时可采用修正的SED准则进行预测。
