结直肠癌化疗患者营养状况及营养治疗研究进展

结直肠癌是常见的消化道肿瘤，其营养不良发生率高且严重。化疗是结直肠癌常见治疗方式之一，并与营养不良独立相关，化疗后患营养不良风险增大且营养不良进一步加重。同时，营养不良可导致患者化疗疗效差及预后不良，并增加化疗相关不良反应、影响患者生活质量及降低生存率等。营养治疗能够有效改善患者营养状况，在肿瘤综合治疗中有重要作用，且多学科团队合作是有效的营养干预模式。目前营养治疗主要包括营养咨询、口服营养补充剂、肠内营养和肠外营养等，相关指南和研究表明在营养治疗时应首选口服营养补充剂及肠内营养，仅在采用以上治疗后仍存在营养不足或无法进行肠内营养时行肠外营养。本文主要对结直肠癌患者营养状况与化疗之间关系、营养治疗的最新研究进展及相关指南进行综述，以期引起临床上对结直肠癌化疗患者营养治疗方面重视并提供参考。

PFKFB3参与脂多糖诱导肺成纤维细胞及肺组织有氧糖酵解的观察性研究

目的:观察脂多糖(lipopolysaccharide,LPS)诱导肺成纤维细胞及肺组织有氧糖酵解关键酶6-磷酸果糖-2-激酶/果糖-2,6-二磷酸酶3(6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3,PFKFB3)表达及其与有氧糖酵解的关系,探讨在LPS诱导肺纤维化过程中肺成纤维细胞和肺组织有氧糖酵解的潜在机制。方法:将人胚肺成纤维细胞MRC-5细胞系采用随机数字表法分为PBS对照组(PBS组)和LPS组(每组3孔),Western blot检测LPS刺激细胞6h后PFKFB3表达情况,同时免疫荧光显示PFKFB3在细胞内的定位情况;于LPS刺激后48 h采用海马细胞能量代谢仪检测细胞耗氧率(oxygen consumption rate,OCR)和产酸率(extracellular acidification rate,ECAR),并采用比色法检测有氧糖酵解产物乳酸产生情况,同时Western blot检测LPS刺激48 h后Ⅰ型胶原蛋白合成情况。将24只C57BL/6小鼠按随机数字表法分为生理盐水对照组(C组)、LPS组(L组),每组12只,L组、C组连续5d分别腹腔注射5 mg/kg LPS、等容量生理盐水;每组各6只于造模后第7天无痛处死小鼠,取血浆和肺组织,Western blot和免疫荧光检测各组肺组织中PFKFB3表达情况,比色法检测各组小鼠血浆中乳酸的含量;剩余小鼠于造模后第28天取肺组织,一侧肺通过Western blot检测肺组织Ⅰ型胶原蛋白合成情况,另一侧肺做石蜡切片进行病理学检测。结果:与PBS组比较,LPS刺激细胞6h后PFKFB3表达明显升高(P<0.05);LPS刺激细胞48 h后,与PBS组比较,LPS组细胞耗氧率降低、产酸率增加,代谢产物乳酸含量明显升高(P<0.05),同时细胞Ⅰ型胶原蛋白合成显著增加(P<0.05)。与C组比较,L组小鼠腹腔注射LPS 7 d后肺组织中PFKFB3表达明显升高(P<0.05),血浆乳酸含量明显升高(P<0.05);LPS注射28 d后,L组小鼠Ⅰ型胶原蛋白表达明显升高(P<0.05),肺组织出现明显纤维化。结论:在LPS诱导的肺纤维化过程中,LPS可诱导肺成纤维细胞和肺组织中PFKFB3蛋白表达,该过程与其有氧糖酵解过程相关,PFKFB3的表达上调可能是LPS诱导肺成纤维细胞和肺组织有氧糖酵解和肺纤维化的关键环节。

MicroRNA-181c provides neuroprotection in an intracerebral hemorrhage model

Apoptosis is an important factor during the early stage of intracerebral hemorrhage.MiR-181 c plays a key regulatory role in apoptosis.However,whether miR-181 c is involved in apoptosis of prophase cells after intracerebral hemorrhage remains unclear.Therefore,in vitro and in vivo experiments were conducted to test this hypothesis.In vivo experiments:collagenase type VII was injected into the basal ganglia of adult Sprague-Dawley rats to establish an intracerebral hemorrhage model.MiR-181 c mimic or inhibitor was injected in situ 4 hours after intracerebral hemorrhage.Neurological functional defects(neurological severity scores)were assessed 1,7,and 14 days after model establishment.Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling and western blot assay were conducted 14 days after model establishment.In vitro experiments:PC12 cells were cultured under oxygen-glucose deprivation,and hemins were added to simulate intracerebral hemorrhage in vitro.MiR-181 c mimic or inhibitor was added to regulate miR-181 c expression.3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay,luciferase reporter system,and western blot assay were performed.Experimental results revealed differences in miR-181 c expression in brain tissues of both patients and rats with cerebral hemorrhage.In addition,in vitro experiments found that miR-181 c overexpression could upregulate the Bcl-2/Bax ratio to inhibit apoptosis,while inhibition of miR-181 c expression could reduce the Bcl-2/Bax ratio and aggravate apoptosis of cells.Regulation of apoptosis occurred through the phosphoinositide 3 kinase(PI3 K)/Akt pathway by targeting of phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten(PTEN).Higher miR-181 c overexpression correlated with lower neurological severity scores,indicating better recovery of neurological function.In conclusion,miR-181 c affects the prognosis of intracerebral hemorrhage by regulating apoptosis,and these effects might be directly mediated and regulated by targeting of the PTEN\PI3 K/Akt pathway and Bcl-2/Bax ratio.Furthermore,these results indicated that miR-181 c played a neuroprotective role in intracerebral hemorrhage by regulating apoptosis of nerve cells,thus providing a potential target for the prevention and treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage.Testing of human serum was authorized by the Ethics Committee of China Medical University(No.2012-38-1)on February 20,2012.The protocol was registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry(Registration No.ChiCTR-COC-17013559).The animal study was approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of China Medical University(approval No.2017008)on March 8,2017.     

SLC12A5 interacts and enhances SOX18 activity to promote bladder urothelial carcinoma progression via upregulating MMP7

Solute carrier family 12 member 5 (SLC12A5) has an oncogenic role in bladder urothelial carcinoma. The present study aimed to characterize the molecular mechanisms of SLC12A5 in bladder urothelial carcinoma pathogenesis. Functional assays identified that in bladder urothelial carcinoma SLC12A5 interacts with and stabilizes SOX18, and then upregulates matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP7). In vivo and in vitro assays were performed to confirm the effect of SLC12A5’s interaction with SOX18 on MMP7‐mediated bladder urothelial carcinoma progression. SLC12A5 was upregulated in human bladder tumors, and correlated with the poor survival of patients with bladder urothelial carcinoma tumor invasion and metastasis, promoted by SLC12A5 overexpression. We demonstrated that SLC12A5 interacted with SOX18, and then upregulated MMP7, thus enhancing tumor progression. Importantly, SLC12A5 expression correlated positively with SOX18 and MMP7 expression in bladder urothelial carcinoma. Furthermore, SLC12A5 expression was suppressed by miR‐133a‐3p. Ectopic expression of SLC12A5 partly abolished miR‐133a‐3p‐mediated suppression of cell migration. SLC12A5‐SOX18 complex‐mediated upregulation on MMP7 was important in bladder urothelial carcinoma progression. The miR‐133a‐3p/SLC12A5/SOX18/MMP7 signaling axis was critical for progression, and provided an effective therapeutic approach against bladder urothelial carcinoma.     

Special topic: Emerging role of transporters in drug interaction and delivery

To date,over 400 membrane transporters have been identified and characterized in human cells at both the molecular level and functional level.These transporters are classified into two families:ATP-binding cassette(ABC)transporters and solute carrier(SLC)transporters.They are well-recognized determinants of drug disposition and metabolism,even in the development of some diseases.Due to the biological function and tissue-specific expression,transporters play a potent role not only in drug disposition but also in drug-drug/drug-food interaction,and hold great potential to be utilized as targets for drug delivery.In 2019,we published a printed book entitled Drug Transporters(PMPH 2019;ISBN 978-7-117-28219-2)in Chinese.The content of the PMPH 2019 book included the basic transporter information and its role in diseases,drug-drug interaction,and drug delivery.However,the printed PMPH 2019 book was started in 2015.The field is growing so fast that several new emerging areas were uncovered in the book,which motivated us to propose a special issue that focuses on the latest advances of drug transporters in drug interaction and delivery.In this issue,we would like to invite several contributors to discuss the emerging findings regarding transporters and drugs.
