Objective:Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma(UCEC),a kind of gynecologic malignancy,poses a significant risk to women’s health.The precise mechanism underlying the development of UCEC remains elusive.Zinc finger protein 554(ZNF554),a member of the Krüppel-associated box domain zinc finger protein superfamily,was reported to be dysregulated in various illnesses,including malignant tumors.This study aimed to examine the involvement of ZNF554 in the development of UCEC.Methods:The expression of ZNF554 in UCEC tissues and cell lines were examined by qRT-PCR and Western blot assay.Cells with stably overexpressed or knocked-down ZNF554 were established through lentivirus infection.CCK-8,wound healing,and Transwell invasion assays were employed to assess cell proliferation,migration,and invasion.Propidium iodide(PI)staining combined with fluorescence-activated cell sorting(FACS)flow cytometer was utilized to detect cell cycle distribution.qRT-PCR and Western blotting were conducted to examine relative mRNA and protein levels.Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay and luciferase reporter assay were used to explore the regulatory role of ZNF554 in RNA binding motif 5(RBM5).Results:The expression of ZNF554 was found to be reduced in both UCEC samples and cell lines.Decreased expression of ZNF554 was associated with higher tumor stage,decreased overall survival,and reduced disease-free survival in UCEC.ZNF554 overexpression suppressed cell proliferation,migration,and invasion,while also inducing cell cycle arrest.In contrast,a decrease in ZNF554 expression resulted in the opposite effect.Mechanistically,ZNF554 transcriptionally regulated RBM5,leading to the deactivation of the Wingless(WNT)/β-catenin signaling pathway.Moreover,the findings from rescue studies demonstrated that the inhibition of RBM5 negated the impact of ZNF554 overexpression onβ-catenin and p-glycogen synthase kinase-3β(p-GSK-3β).Similarly,the deliberate activation of RBM5 reduced the increase inβ-catenin and p-GSK-3βcaused by the suppression of ZNF554.In vitro experiments showed that ZNF554 overexpression-induced decreases in cell proliferation and migration were counteracted by RBM5 knockdown.Additionally,when RBM5 was overexpressed,it hindered the improvements in cell proliferation and migration caused by reducing the ZNF554 levels.Conclusion:ZNF554 functions as a tumor suppressor in UCEC.Furthermore,ZNF554 regulates UCEC progression through the RBM5/WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway.ZNF554 shows a promise as both a prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target for UCEC. 展开更多

Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)is one of the common most malignant tumors.This study aimed to determine the in vitro and in vivo anticancer activity of cordycepin and elucidate its mechanism of action.The results of in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that cordycepin inhibited proliferation and migration in HepG-2 cells and inhibited the growth of HepG-2 xenograft-bearing nude mice by inducing apoptosis.Transcriptome sequencing analysis revealed a total of 403 differential genes,which revealed that cordycepin may play an anti-HCC role by regulating Hippo signaling pathway.The regulatory effects of cordycepin on the Hippo signaling pathway was further investigated using a YAP1 inhibitor.The results demonstrated that cordycepin upregulated the expression of MST1 and LAST1,and subsequently inhibited YAP1,which activated the Hippo signaling pathway.This in turn downregulated the expression of GBP3 and ETV5,and subsequently inhibited cell proliferation and migration.Additionally,YAP1 regulated the expression of Bax and Bcl-2,regulated the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway,and induced apoptosis by upregulating the expression of the caspase-3 protein.In summary,this study reveals that cordycepin exerts its anti-hepatocarcinoma effect through regulating Hippo signaling pathway,and GBP3 and ETV5 may be potential therapeutic targets for hepatocarcinoma. 展开更多

Background:Oleanolic acid(OA),a pentacyclic triterpenoid exhibiting specific anti-cancer properties and highly effective antioxidant activity,was isolated from traditional Chinese medicinal herbs.Conversely,the OA that impacts colon cancer(CC)cells and its underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood.Methods:The cytotoxic effect of OA alone or OA-5-Fluorouracil(5-FU)combination on normal and CC cells was analyzed by methyl thiazolyl diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide(MTT).Then,the impact of OA on CC cell lines(LoVo and HT-29)proliferation and stemness were measured using colon formation and tumorsphere formation assays.Octamer-binding transcription factor 4(Oct4),Prominin-1(CD133),Nanog,and transcription factor SOX-2(SOX2)are cell stemness-related indicators whose expression was assessed usingfluorescence qPCR assay,Western blotting,and immunohistochemistry.The effect of OA on the proliferative potency of CC cells was evaluated using an in vivo model.Results:The stem-like characteristics and clone production of colon cancer cells were markedly reduced by OA alone or in combination with OA-5-FU.Moreover,OA increases the susceptibility of CC cells to 5-FU by blocking the cell stemness-related markers(CD133,Nanog,SOX2,and Oct4)expression levels both in vitro and in vivo,as well as by inactivating the activator of transcription 3(STAT3 signaling)and Janus kinase 2/signal transducer(JAK2).Conclusion:Thesefindings imply that oleanolic acid,both in vitro and in vivo,suppresses the JAK2/STAT3 pathway,which in turn reverses chemoresistance and decreases colon cancer cell stemness.Therefore,by reducing the recommended amount of 5-FU,this strategy may improve chemotherapeutic effectiveness and minimize undesired side effects. 展开更多

Broiler ascites syndrome(AS)is one of the main diseases threatening the health of broilers.It is well documented that myocardial hypertrophy and failure is one of the key mechanisms of broiler ascites syndrome.Therefore,prevention of cardiac hypertrophy and failure would be one goal to reduce broiler ascites syndrome incidence.Myocardial hyper-trophy and failure are closely related to endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)in cardiac myocytes,and the endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling system(ATF6-DR5)is one of the important pathways of myocardial apoptosis.Excessive hyper-trophy will affect the heart muscle's normal contraction and diastole function,and the heart will turn from compen-sated to decompensate thus causing myocardial injury.Myocardial apoptosis is a core component of the pathological changes of this myocardial injury.Nano-selenium is a kind of red elemental selenium nanoparticle.Due to its excellent physical,chemical and biological properties,it has attracted extensive academic attention in recent years.It has been proven to have excellent antioxidant,antibacterial,antitumor,antihypertrophic,and antiapoptotic abilties.Herein,nano-selenium(1μmol/L)can inhibit hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))-induced oxidative stress in broiler primary cardiomyocytes,and at the same time reduce cardiomyocyte apoptosis.In vivo,nano-selenium can reduce broiler myocardial injury-related enzyme indicators(AST,CK and LDH),and alleviate myocardial injury.It can also activate the antioxidant enzyme system(SOD,GSH-Px and CAT)and reduce MDA,and make the recovery ofT-AOC ability in the organization.Meanwhile,nano-selenium can down-regulate the genes and proteins expression of ATF-6,GRP-78,CHOP and caspase 12 in the ERS-related signaling pathway,and inhibit that of downstream-related caspase 3,Bax and caspase 9,and increase that of the downstream anti-apoptotic Bcl-2,thereby maintaining the homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum and alleviating cardiomyocyte apoptosis.It can be seen that nano-selenium can protect the damaged myocardium in the broiler ascites caused by high-salt drinking by regulating the ATF6-DR5 signaling pathway.This study was performed in chickens and cardiomyocyte cells and attempted to demonstrate that selenium nanoparticles can protect the damaged myocar-dium in broiler ascites.This paper provides a new idea for preventing and treating broiler ascites syndrome. 展开更多

AIM To investigate the potential role of micro RNA-30 a(mi R-30 a) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).METHODS Expression of mi R-30 a-3 p/5 p was analyzed using microarray data and fresh ESCC tissue samples. Both in vitro and in vivo assays were used to investigate the effects of mi R-30 a-3 p/5 p on ESCC cell proliferation. Furthermore,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis was performed to explore underlying mechanisms involved in ESCC,and then,assays were carried out to verify the potential molecular mechanism of mi R-30 a in ESCC.RESULTS Low expression of mi R-30 a-3 p/5 p was closely associated with advanced ESCC progression and poor prognosis of patients with ESCC. Knock-down of mi R-30 a-3 p/5 p promoted ESCC cell proliferation. Increased mi R-30 a-3 p/5 p expression inhibited the Wnt signaling pathway by targeting Wnt2 and Fzd2.CONCLUSION Down-regulation of mi R-30 a-3 p/5 p promotes ESCC cell proliferation by activating the Wnt signaling pathway through inhibition of Wnt2 and Fzd2. 展开更多

Recent studies regarding neuronal differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have primarily focused on induction methods and transplantation in vivo. However, knowledge about the intrinsic regulatory mechanisms underlying neuronal induction of MSCs remains limited and unclear. OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the role of JAK-STAT3 signaling pathway during neuronal differentiation of MSCs using a combination of the JAK-STAT3 signaling inhibitor AG490 and growth factors. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Neural, molecular, biomedical, in vitro experiment was performed at the Laboratory of Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, Nanjing Medical University between March and December 2008 MATERIALS: An inhibitor of the JAK-STAT3 signaling pathway was purchased from Calbiochem, USA. Antibody kit for total and phosphorylated STAT3 was purchased from Cell Signaling, USA. METHODS: MSCs from passage 3 were assigned to non-induced, growth factor, and AG490 groups. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The number of cells expressing neuron-specific enolase, microtubule-associated protein, and glial fibrillary acidic protein were determined by immunocytochemistry. Total and phosphorylated (Tyr705) expression levels of STAT3 protein were measured by Western blot analysis. RESULTS: MSCs were transdifferentiated into neuronal- and astrocyte-like phenotypes through the induction of epidermal growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor. In addition, the JAK-STAT3 signaling pathway was significantly activated during neural differentiation. Expression of phosphorylated (Tyr705) STAT3 was inhibited with AG490 (5 pmol/L) prior to neural induction with epidermal growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor; proportion of astrocyte-like cells was significantly reduced (P 〈 0.01), and the proportion of neuronal-like phenotypes was significantly increased (P〈 0.01). CONCLUSION: JAK-STAT3 signaling pathway was shown to regulate neuronal induction of bone marrow MSCs. The proportion of MSC-induced neuronal-like cells was increased following treatment with the JAK-STAT3 signaling inhibitor AG490. 展开更多

AIM To investigate the mechanism by which hepatitis C virus(HCV) core protein-induced mi R-93-5 p up-regulation regulates the interferon(IFN) signaling pathway.METHODS HCV-1 b core protein was exogenously expressed in Huh7 cells using pc DNA3.1(+) vector. The expression of mi R-93-5 p and interferon receptor 1(IFNAR1) was measured using quantitative reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction and Western blot. The protein expression and phosphorylation level of STAT1 were evaluated by Western blot. The overexpression and silencing of mi R-93-5 p and IFNAR1 were performed using mi R-93-5 p agomir and antagomir, and pc DNA3.1-IFNAR1 and IFNAR1 si RNA, respectively. Luciferase assay was used to identify whether IFNAR1 is a target of mi R-93-5 p. Cellular experiments were also conducted.RESULTS Serum mi R-93-5 p level was increased in patients with HCV-1 b infection and decreased to normal level after HCV-1 b clearance, but persistently increased in those with pegylated interferon-α resistance, compared with healthy subjects. Serum mi R-93-5 p expression had an AUC value of 0.8359 in distinguishing patients with pegylated interferon-α resistance from those with pegylated interferon-α sensitivity. HCV-1 b core protein increased mi R-93-5 p expression and induced inactivation of the IFN signaling pathway in Huh7 cells. Furthermore, IFNAR1 was identified as a direct target of mi R-93-5 p, and IFNAR1 restore could rescue mi R-93-5 p-reduced STAT1 phosphorylation, suggesting that the mi R-93-5 p-IFNAR1 axis regulates the IFN signaling pathway.CONCLUSION HCV-1 b core protein-induced mi R-93-5 p up-regulation inhibits the IFN signaling pathway by directly targeting IFNAR1, and the mi R-93-5 p-IFNAR1 axis regulates STAT1 phosphorylation. This axis may be a potential therapeutic target for HCV-1 b infection. 展开更多

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of Chaihu Longgu Muli Decoction(柴胡龙骨牡蛎汤,CHLGMLD)in rats with temporal lobe epilepsy(TLE).Methods A total of 80 Sprague-Dawley(SD)male rats were randomized into control(CON),model(MOD),carbamazepine(CBZ,0.1 g/kg),CHLGMLD low dose(CHLGMLD-L,12.5 g/kg),and high dose(CHLGMLD-H,25 g/kg)groups,with 16 rats in each group.TLE rat models were established in the four groups with the use of lithium-pilocarpine except for the CON group.After the successful establishment of TLE models,all drugs were administered through gavage,and distilled water was given to rats in the CON and MOD groups for four weeks.The frequency and duration of seizures before and after treatment were recorded for the evaluation of the alleviation degree.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression levels of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p.The expression levels of toll-like receptor 4(TLR4),interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1(IRAK1),tumor necrosis factor(TNF)receptor-associated factor 6(TRAF6),TAK1-binding protein(TAB),nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB),and interleukin-1 beta(IL-1β)in hippocampus were tested by immunofluorescence assay.Correlation analysis between the above factors and expressions of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p were performed separately.Results CHLGMLD decreased the frequency(P<0.05)and duration(P<0.01)of seizures in rats.CHLGMLD down-regulated the expression levels of miR-146a-5p and miR-146a-3p(P<0.05),and inhibited the expression levels of TLR4,IRAK1,TRAF6,TAB,NF-κB,and IL-1β(P<0.01).The correlation analysis revealed that the expression levels of TLR4,IRAK1,TRAF6,TAB,NF-κB,and IL-1β were positively correlated with the expression levels of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p detected by qRT-PCR,respectively(P<0.01).Conclusion CHLGMLD can inhibite the TLR4 signaling pathway by lowering the expression levels of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p to alleviate hippocampal dentate gyrus inflammation in TLE rats,thus relieving seizures. 展开更多

Background: Intramuscular fat(IMF) content is a vital parameter for assessing pork quality. Increasing evidence has shown that microRNAs(miRNAs) play an important role in regulating porcine IMF deposition. Here, a novel miRNA implicated in porcine IMF adipogenesis was found, and its effect and regulatory mechanism were further explored with respect to intramuscular preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation.Results: By porcine adipose tissue miRNA sequencing analysis, we found that miR-146a-5p is a potential regulator of porcine IMF adipogenesis. Further studies showed that miR-146a-5p mimics inhibited porcine intramuscular preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation, while the miR-146a-5p inhibitor promoted cell proliferation and adipogenic differentiation. Mechanistically, miR-146a-5p suppressed cell proliferation by directly targeting SMAD family member 4(SMAD4) to attenuate TGF-β signaling. Moreover, miR-146a-5p inhibited the differentiation of intramuscular preadipocytes by targeting TNF receptor-associated factor 6(TRAF6) to weaken the AKT/mTORC1 signaling downstream of the TRAF6 pathway.Conclusions: MiR-146a-5p targets SMAD4 and TRAF6 to inhibit porcine intramuscular adipogenesis by attenuating TGF-β and AKT/mTORC1 signaling, respectively. These findings provide a novel miRNA biomarker for regulating intramuscular adipogenesis to promote pork quality. 展开更多

Chemotherapy may cause cellular oxidative stress to bone marrow.Oxidative damage of bone marrow hematopoietic microenvironment is closely related to chronic myelosuppression after chemotherapeutic treatment.Angelica sinensis polysaccharides(ASP)are major effective ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine Angelica with multi-target anti-oxidative stress features.In the current study,we investigated the protective roles and mechanisms of ASP on chemotherapy-induced bone marrow stromal cell(BMSC)damage.The human bone marrow stromal cell line HS-5 cells were divided into control group,5-FU group,5-FU+ASP group,and 5-FU+LiCl group to investigate the mechanism of ASP to alleviate 5-FU-induced BMSC proliferation inhibition.The results showed that 5-FU inhibits the growth of HS-5 cells in a time and dose-dependent manner;however,ASP partially counteracted the 5-FU-induced decrease in cell viability,whereas Wnt signaling inhibitor Dkk1 antagonized the effect of ASP on HS-5 cells.ASP reversed the decrease in total cytoplasmicβ-catenin,p-GSK-3β,and CyclinD1 following 5-FU treatment and modulated nuclear expression ofβ-catenin,Lef-1,and C-myc proteins.Furthermore,ASP also enhanced the antioxidant capacity of cells and reduced 5-FU-induced oxidative stress,attenuated FoxO1 expression,thus weakened its downstream apoptosis-related proteins and G0/G1 checkpoint-associated p27^(Kip1) expression to alleviate 5-FU-induced apoptosis and to promote cell cycle progression.All the results above suggest that the protective role of ASP in 5-FU-treated BMSCs proliferation for the chemotherapy may be related to its activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling and keeping homeostasis betweenβ-catenin and FoxO1 under oxidative stress.The study provides a potential therapeutic strategy for alleviating chemotherapeutic damage on BMSCs. 展开更多

OBJECTIVE Curcumin is the major component of the spice turmeric and the yellow pigment in curry powder. Many studies have shown that curcumin (diferuloylmethane) has significant antiproliferative and apoptotic effects in cancer cells by several mechanisms. Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) proteins are critical in mediating a response in hematopoietic cells. This study was designed to investigate whether curcumin is associated with proteins involved in signal transduction and activation of transcription (STAT) and to investigate the expression of signal transducers and activators of transcription and the significance of the STAT5 signaling pathway of by treating k562 cells and cells from CML patients with curcumin. METHODS The study was divided into the following groups: normal control cells (human bone marrow cells), untreated K562 cells, curcumin treated K562 cells, IFN-γ treated K562 cells, curcumin plus IFN-γ treated K562 cells, and CML patient cells with and without curcumin treatment. Cell proliferation was measured by the MTT assay. The expression of STAT5 mRNA was determined by RT-PCR. The expression of the STAT5 protein was assayed by Western-blotting and the expression of STAT5 in K562 cells was examined under confocal laser-scanning microscopy. The expression of STAT5 mRNA of K562 cells was determined with in situ hybridization. EMSA was used to assess the change in binding of STAT5 with DNA in CML patient cells. RESULTS The proliferation of the K562 cells and CML primary cells was decreased in the curcumin-treated group and/or IFN-γ group. The expression of STAT5 mRNA and protein were decreased the curcumin-treated group as compared with the K562 untreated group (P〈0.01). STAT5 mRNA and protein expression was decreased in the IFN-γ group compared to the untreated K562 group (P〈0.01). Combined use of curcumin with IFN-γ inhibited the proliferation of K562 cells and decreased the expression of STAT5 mRNA and protein of the K562 cells. For the CML patient cells, the OD value of STAT5-DNA binding in the curcumin treated cells was less than that compared to untreated cells. CONCLUSION The antiproliferation effects of curcumin may partly be mediated through signal transduction and activation of transcription and may involve the STAT5 signaling pathway. 展开更多

OBJECTIVE:To unmask the underlying mechanisms of Yisui granule(益髓颗粒,YSG)for the treatment of Myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS).METHODS:Our study used an SKM-1 mouse xenograft model of MDS to explore the anti-tumor potential of YSG and its safety,assess its effect on overall survival(OS),and evaluate whether its mechanism is associated with the demethylation of the secreted frizzled related protein 5(s FRP5)gene and suppressing Wnt/β-catenin pathway.Bisulfite amplicon sequencing was applied to detect the level of methylation of the s FRP5 gene;western blotting,immunofluorescence staining,and real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction were performed to detect DNA methyltransferase 1(DNMT1),s FRP5,and other Wnt/β-catenin pathway-related m RNA and protein expression.RESULTS:The results showed that high-dosage YSG exerted an anti-tumor effect similar to that of decitabine,improved OS,and reduced long-term adverse effects in the long term.Mechanically,YSG reduced the expression of DNMT1 methyltransferase,decreased the methylation,and increased the expression of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway antagonist-s FRP5.Furthermore,components of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway,including Wnt3a,β-catenin,c-Myc,and cyclin D1,were down-regulated in response to YSG,suggesting that YSG could treat MDS by demethylating the s FRP5 gene and suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.CONCLUSIONS:Our findings demonstrated that YSG could be used alone or in combination with decitabine to improve outcomes in the MDS animal model,providing an alternative solution for treating MDS. 展开更多

While SlPti5 has been shown to play a crucial role in the regulation of antagonistic genes in Solanum lycopersicum and Arabidopsis against pathogen infection,there have been no comprehensive studies on the effects of SlPti5 on the regulatory response mechanism of reactive oxygen species(ROS) system and hormone pathways during growth and disease resistance of tomato plants.Here,we investigated the function of SlPti5 in the defense response of tomato against Botrytis cinerea utilizing a virus-induced gene silencing(VIGS)-based system.Expression profile analysis showed that SlPti5 was significantly induced upon B.cinerea infection,with high expression levels in the leaves and fruit of tomato.VIGS-based silencing of SlPti5 inhibited early vegetative growth,increased the plant’s susceptibility to infection,promoted the development of ROS,affected the expression of genes involved in the ROS scavenging system,and attenuated the expression of genes associated with pathogenesis and the ethylene/jasmonic acid signaling pathways.In sum,our data demonstrated that SlPti5 stimulates the immune response of tomato plant to Botrytis cinerea infection by involving the ethylene(ET)-and jasmonic acid(JA)-mediated pathways and modulating the expression of some key pathogenesis-related(PR) genes. 展开更多

Foot-and-mouth disease virus(FMDV)has developed various strategies to antagonize the host innate immunity.FMDV Lpro and 3Cpro interfere with type I IFNs through different mechanisms.The structural protein VP3 of FMDV degrades Janus kinase 1 to suppress IFN-γsignaling transduction.Whether non-structural proteins of FMDV are involved in restraining type II IFN signaling pathways is unknown.In this study,it was shown that FMDV replication was resistant to IFN-γtreatment after the infection was established and FMDV inhibited type II IFN induced expression of IFN-γ-stimulated genes(ISGs).We also showed for the first time that FMDV non-structural protein 3C antagonized IFN-γ-stimulated JAK-STAT signaling pathway by blocking STAT1 nuclear translocation.3C^(pro)expression significantly reduced the ISGs transcript levels and palindromic gamma-activated sequences(GAS)promoter activity,without affecting the protein level,tyrosine phosphorylation,and homodimerization of STAT1.Finally,we provided evidence that 3C protease activity played an essential role in degrading KPNA1 and thus inhibited ISGs mRNA and GAS promoter activities.Our results reveal a novel mechanism by which an FMDV non-structural protein antagonizes host type II IFN signaling. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer(CRC)is a highly prevalent malignancy worldwide,and new therapeutic targets urgently need to be found to prolong patient survival.5-methoxytryptophan(5-MTP)is a tryptophan metabolite found in animals and humans.However,the effects of 5-MTP on proliferation and apoptosis of CRC cells are currently unknown.AIM To investigate the effects of 5-MTP on the proliferation,migration,invasion,and apoptosis abilities of CRC cells.Additionally,we seek to explore whether 5-MTP has the potential to be utilized as a drug for the treatment of CRC.METHODS In order to evaluate the effect of 5-MTP on CRC cells,a series of experiments were conducted for evaluation.Colony formation assay and Cell Counting Kit 8 assays were used to investigate the impact of 5-MTP on the proliferation of CRC cell lines.Cell cycle assays were employed to examine the effect of 5-MTP on cellular growth.In addition,we investigated the effects of 5-MTP on apoptosis and reactive oxygen species in HCT-116 cells.To obtain a deeper understanding of how 5-MTP affects CRC,we conducted a study to examine its influence on the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in CRC cells.RESULTS This article showed that 5-MTP promoted apoptosis and cell cycle arrest and inhibited cell proliferation in CRC cells.In many articles,it has been reported that PI3K/Akt/FoxO3a signaling pathway is one of the most important signaling pathways involved in internal regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. Nevertheless, 5-MTP combined with PI3K/Akt/FoxO3a signaling pathway inhibitors significantly promotedapoptosis and cell cycle arrest and inhibited cell proliferation in CRC cells compared with 5-MTP alone in ourstudy.CONCLUSIONTherefore, there is strong evidence that 5-MTP can be used as an effective medicine for CRC treatment. 展开更多

A major portion of the beneficial effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) is due to the production of trophic and angiogenic factors by these cells, and one of the efforts to improve the therapeutic efficacy of these cells lies in enhancing this capacity. Since there is complement activation in all areas of tissue injury, and both C3a and C5a activate MSC, it was asked whether stimulation with C3a or C5a would upregulate the production of trophic factors by MSC. C3a caused significant up-regulation of various angiogenic factors, including VEGF, CXCL8/IL-8 and IL-6. In contrast there was no detectable production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β in spite of nuclear translocation of NFκB. Although C5a also caused moderate up-regulation of angiogenic factors, the effect was borderline significant. Furthermore the production of angiogenic factors induced by C3a was of physiological relevance: Supernatants of MSCs cultured under serum-free conditions induced minimal tube formation of HUVECs as an in vitro measure of angiogenesis;tube formation was considerably enhanced, when supernatants from C3a-stimulated MSC were used, while C3a itself had no direct angiogenic effect on HUVECs. The signaling cascade responsible for the production of angiogenic factors by C3a or C5a could be defined as activation of the rho cascade which was necessary for nuclear translocation of NFκB p65 and of phospho-ERK1/2. Although rho was only transiently activated, inhibition of the rho or “downstream of it” of the NFκB pathway, prevented C3a-and C5a-induced up-regulation of angiogenic factors. 展开更多
