Abstract
Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a potentially malignant disorder. Current studies have shown that chewing areca nut is considered the main cause of OSF, and endothelial-mesenchymal transformation (EndMT) participates in the occurrence and development of the fibrotic lesion. However, the specific molecular mechanisms and treatments remain unclear. Here, we report the mechanism of arecoline-induced EndMT and the importance of this mechanism in OSF, and we also identify potential therapeutics for decreasing OSF incidence. We demonstrate the overexpression of Yes-associated protein (YAP) in human samples and that it was significantly associated with OSF pathologic stage. Arecoline activated YAP by increasing reactive oxygen species levels and inducing the PERK pathway (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 3), resulting in the initiation of EndMT and leading to OSF. Verteporfin, a YAP–TEA domain pathway inhibitor, suppressed EndMT and decreased collagen accumulation, resulting in the alleviation of OSF in mice. These data indicate that arecoline regulates the activity of YAP and highlight an alternative method for treating OSF.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the change and relationship between serum high-mobility group box-1(HMGB1) and related inflammatory cytokines level in patients suffer with bone metastatic pain. Methods: Collection of the bone cancer pain patients who received analgesic therapy the department of pain in The First Affiliated Hospital of Jiaxing University from November 2016 to August 2016. Serum concentration of HMGB1, the Receptor of Advanced Glycation Endproducts (RAGE), monocyte chemotactic protein-1(MCP-1), tumor necrosis factor -α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interleukin-13 (IL-13), and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) levels were determined in 15 healthy individuals as healthy donor and 15 patients with bone metastatic pain by enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) . The healthy individuals and patients with bone metastatic pain were collected before treatment and on 7 d after the treatment. Results: The serum concentration of HMGB1 and RAGE were significantly increased in tumorous group compared with healthy group[(8.8±2.3) vs (1.9±1.1) μg/L,(231±16) vs (46±20) ng/L); t=7.10,12.44, both P<0.05], then decreased after analgesic therapy [(4.77±1.36) μg/L, (129.80±29.32) ng/L, t=7.10, 12.44, both P<0.05]. The serum concentration of proinflammatory cytokines such as MCP-1, TNF-α, and IL-1β were significantly increased in tumorous group when compared with healthy group, and decreased after analgesic therapy (all P<0.05). The expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10, IL-13, and TGF-β were significantly increased in tumorous group when compared with healthy group, and decreased after analgesic therapy (all P<0.05).Compared with healthy group, the levels of MCP-1/IL-10, MCP-1/IL-13, MCP-1/TGF-β, TNF-α/IL-10, TNF-α/IL-13, TNF-α/TGF-β, IL-1β/IL-10, IL-1β/IL-13, IL-1β/TGF-β were significantly increased in tumorous group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: HMGB1 may adjust the proinflammatory-anti-inflammatory system homeostasis to participate in the development of bone metastatic pain.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the analgesic effects of cinobufagin (CBG) on cancer-induced bone pain in rat and study the role of the muscarinic receptor M4 subtype (M4 mAChR) in its involvement. Methods: A total of 100 Female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=20): Sham group (group S), Cancer group (group A), Normal saline + CBG vehicle solution group (group ANS), Normal saline + 1 mg/kg CBG group (group ANC) and Tropicamide + 1 mg/kg CBG group (group ATC). Rats in group S were injected 10 μl Hank's solution into the left tibia medullar cavity, while rats in group A, ANS, ANC, and ATC were injected Walker 256 mammary cancer cells (10 μl, 2×10(7) cells/ml) into the same place. On day 9 post-inoculation rats in group ANS, ANC, and ATC were respectively received Saline (0.9%, 15 μl, i.t.), Saline (0.9%, 15 μl, i.t.)and 10 nmol of M4 mAChR blocker Tropicamide. After 10 min, ANS group, ANC group and ATC group were intraperitoneally injected with CBG vehicle solution, 1 mg/kg CBG and 1 mg/kg CBG. Model rats in each group were tested three times average as its basis pain threshold before injection cancer cells (T(0)). Mechanical withdrawal thresholds were measured on left hind paws, before 20 min (T(1)) and after 10 min (T(2)), 30 min (T(3)), 60 min (T(4)), 90 min (T(5)) and 120 min (T(6)) intrathecal injection. Left L4-L6 spinal dorsal horn and DRG were removed for determination of the expression of CaM-dependent kinaseⅡa (CaMKⅡa) and pCaMKⅡa by Western Blot after 60 min drug delivery. Results: At each time point from T(1) to T(6), the mechanical pain thresholds of group S were (8.69±0.45), (8.63±0.44), (8.65±0.39), (8.84±0.23), (8.80±0.14), (8.75±0.14) g, respectively, and the mechanical pain thresholds of group A were (6.37±0.30), (6.42±0.13), (6.29±0.17), (6.25±0.22), (6.34±0.33), (6.36±0.34) g, the difference was statistically significant (t=-16.41, -23.47, -30.25, -17.35, -19.52, -22.56, all P<0.01). At each time point from T(3) to T(5), the mechanical pain thresholds of the ANS group were (6.42±0.32), (6.39±0.34), (6.26±0.32) g, respectively, and the mechanical pain thresholds of the ANC group were (7.29±0.34), (7.81±0.15), (7.54±0.19) g, the difference was statistically significant (t=13.52, 14.22, 17.33, all P<0.01). At each time point from T(3) to T(5), compared with the ANC group, the mechanical pain threshold of the ATC group decreased (6.55±0.23), (6.84±0.46), (6.80±0.43) g, and the difference was statistically significant (t=-12.69, -11.26, -10.33, all P<0.01). At the time of T(4), the expressions of pCaMKⅡa in the spinal dorsal horn of each group were (0.67±0.05), (1.64±0.12), (1.57±0.14), (0.78±0.09), (1.39±0.11), respectively, and the expressions of pCaMKⅡa in DRG of each group were (1.65±0.39), (3.59±0.17), (3.43±0.32), (2.17±0.34), (2.95±0.23). The differences were statistically significant (F=179.89, 198.76, both P<0.01). Compared with the S group, the expression of pCaMⅡa was up-regulated in group A. Compared with ANS group, the expression of pCaMKⅡ a was down-regulated in ANC group. Compared with ANC group, the expression of pCaMK Ⅱ a was up-regulated in ATC group. The expression of CaMKⅡa in spinal dorsal horn and DRG was not statistically significant (F=1.25, 2.79, both P>0.05). Conclusions: These results demonstrated that M4mAChR participated in mediating the alleviation of hyperalgesia by cinobufagin in rats with bone cancer pain, and its mechanism may be related to pCaMKⅡa/CaMKⅡa signaling pathway.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of ultrasound-guided lateral and medial point blocks of thoracic paravertebral space on the rapid recovery of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods: A total of 90 patients of either sex, aged 18-67 years, weighted 45.10-91.80 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were divided into two groups (n=45) using a random number table: lateral point group of thoracic paravertebral space (group A) and medial point group of thoracic paravertebral space (group B). Ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block was performed before induction of general anesthesia. The puncture point of group A was positioned as the intercostal block of the thoracic paravertebral space of the right side of T(6)-T(11), and the puncture point of the group B was positioned as the thoracic paravertebral body of the right side of T(6)-T(11) thoracic paravertebral space. The thoracic paravertebral block was performed with 2 ml of 0.75% ropivacaine per injection for a total of 10 ml. The visual analog scale (VAS) scores of resting pain and active pain at 4, 8, 12 and 24 h after operation were observed. The anus recovery time after surgery and perioperative hypotension were also recorded. Results: The blood pressures in group A were significantly higher than those in group B at 4, 8, 12 and 24 h after operation, which were(73±7) vs (70±7), (78±7) vs (74±7),(82±7) vs (79±7),and (87±7) vs (83±7) mmHg,and the differences were statistically significant (t=2.29, 2.54, 2.33, 2.37, all P<0.05). The VAS scores of resting pain and active pain in group A were significantly higher than those in group B, and the differences were statistically significant (Z=-2.29, -2.51, -2.21, -2.39, -2.53, -2.25, -2.30, -2.24, all P<0.05). The postoperative anal exhaust recovery time of the patients in group A was (21.8±1.9) min that was obvious lower than that in group B which was (22.7±1.9) min with statistically significant difference (t=2.12, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and pruritus (χ(2)=0.28, 0.72, 0.45, 0.21,all P>0.05). Conclusions: In the procedure of thoracic paravertebral block under the guidance of ultrasound, the closer blocking points are to the central axis of the spine, the better the postoperative analgesic effect, but the more obvious the postoperative blood pressure reduction and the longer the anal recovery exhaust time. The further away from the central axis of the spine, the more analgesic effect decreases, but the blood pressure decreases and the anal recovery time is relatively rapid.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate a diffusion weighted imaging (DWI)-based morphological classification for acute isolated pontine infarcts (AIPI) and to assess differences in clinical characteristics, risk factors and functional outcomes among the different morphologies. Methods: All participants from SMART cohort with DWI-proven AIPI were included and categorized into 3 groups: basilar artery branch disease (BABD) group, small artery disease (SAD) group and large-artery-occlusive disease (LAOD) group, according to lesion extent of the transverse axial plane and basilar artery atherosclerosis severity. The clinical characteristics, vascular risk factors and 6-month's functional outcome was analyzed among 3 groups. Results: Of the 1 129 patients enrolled, 175 had AIPI. BABD was the most frequent subtype of AIPI (46.3%), followed by SAD (36.0%) and LAOD (17.7%). Neurological impairment on admission was more severe in the LAOD and BABD group than SAD group (P<0.001). In terms of risk factors, the percentage of hypertension was significant different among three groups (P<0.05). The average National Institute of Health stroke scale was 3.49 for SAD group, 5.93 for LAOD group, 5.97 for BABD group, and the differences were significant (P<0.001). The Poor outcome (mRS>2) was found in only 13.7% of patients at 6-month post-stroke and there was no difference among 3 groups. Conclusions: According to the morphological classification, BABD is the most frequent subtype of AIPI. The differences of the clinical characteristics and risk factors among three groups indicate that differences observed in morphology might have distinct pathophysiologic mechanisms. AIPI can be reliably classified based on morphology using clinical magnetic resonance images.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence on imaging, topographic distribution and risk factors of perivascular space (PVS) in community population. Methods: This study was based on the population of Shunyi Study in China from June 2013 to September 2016. One thousand two hundred and thirty-two stroke free participants older than 35 years, who completed cerebral MRI, were included. Cardiovascular risk factors were assessed by interview, physical examination and blood sample tests. PVS were evaluated on high-resolution 3-dimensional-T1WI, T2WI and FLAIR sequences. On T1WI, PVS were detected according to 3D imaging criteria. The number and anatomic location of large PVS (≥3 mm) were recorded. And severity of PVS was then semiquantitatively graded in both white matter (WM) and basal ganglia (BG). Associations between risk factors and PVS were analyzed by multinominal Logistic regression models and adjusted for age, gender and relevant confounders. Results: Perivascular spaces were observed in the BG or WM in every subject, aged (55±10) years and 37.3% male. Large PVS were detected in 19.0% (460/1 232) of participants. Severity of PVS was found to be strongly associated with age in both basal ganglia (severe versus mild: OR=1.81; 95%CI 1.45-2.27, P<0.01) and white matter (OR=1.39; 95%CI 1.13-1.71, P<0.01), and the proportion of subjects with hypercholesterolemia decreased with the severity of PVS in BG (OR=0.58, P=0.01) . The present of large PVS was found to be associated with age(present versus absent: OR=1.03, 95%CI 1.02-1.05, P<0.01) and ApoE ε4 carrier genotype(OR=1.53, 95%CI 1.01-2.23, P=0.04). Conclusions: Perivascular spaces are always detected in the BG or WM in elderly people, and large PVS are also prevalent in community-based population. The risk factors are different due to distribution and size, and may depend on anatomic or pathologic characteristics.

Abstract
Abstract
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subset for which novel therapeutic approaches are needed. A significant proportion of TNBC patients harbor either germline or somatic mutations in BRCA1, or epigenetic silencing of BRCA1, which renders them deficient in DNA repair. Virtually all BRCA1 deficient breast cancers harbor mutations in TP53 suggesting that inactivation of p53 is a requirement for tumor progression in the setting of BRCA1 deficiency. Due to this dependency, we hypothesized that restoring wild type p53 function in BRCA1 deficient breast cancer would be therapeutic. The majority of TP53 mutations are missense, which generate a defective protein that potentially can be targeted with small molecules. Zinc Metallochaperones (ZMCs) are a new class of anti-cancer drugs that reactivate a class of zinc deficient mutant TP53 alleles by restoring zinc binding. Using ZMC1 in human breast cancer cell lines expressing the zinc deficient p53R175H, we demonstrate that loss of BRCA1 sensitizes cells to mutant p53 reactivation. Using genetically engineered murine mammary tumor models with Brca1 deficiency, we demonstrate that ZMC1 significantly improves survival in mice bearing tumors harboring the zinc deficient Trp53R172H allele but not the Trp53 null allele. We synthesized a novel formulation of ZMC1 (Zn-1), in which the drug is made in complex with zinc to improve zinc delivery, and demonstrate that Zn-1 has increased efficacy over ZMC1. Furthermore, we show that ZMC1 plus olaparib is a highly effective combination for tumors expressing the p53R172H mutant. In conclusion, we have validated preclinically a novel therapeutic approach for BRCA1 deficient breast cancer through reactivation of mutant p53.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose: Since 2010, ASCO/CAP recommended that ER be considered positive if ≥1% tumor cells with positive nuclear staining by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in breast cancer. ASCO/CAP also recommended considering endocrine therapy (ET) in ER positive patients. However, most breast cancers are either ER negative or ER strongly positive (≥10%), and tumors with low ER (1-9%) expression are rare. Up to now, the effect of ET is controversial for these patients with ER 1-9% and unfortunately, we know little about the clinical information of this subgroup. In this study, we analyzed the clinicopathological characteristics and ET mode of patients with low ER expression. We sought to figure out whether the ASCO/CAP guidelines affect clinical ET decision in China and Which features are important considerations for doctors to choose ET. We also evaluated the efficacy of ET in these patients. Methods: Patients diagnosed stage I-III primary invasive breast cancer with ER low expression (1-9%) between January 2008 and December 2016 were retrospectively identified from six hospitals in China. Result: 457 patients (2.7%) had low expression of ER (1-9%) of 17216 patients. Mean age at diagnosis was 49 years. 288 patients (49.9%)were younger than 50 years old. 254 patients (55.6%) had stage II disease and 37 patients (8.1%) had lymphovascular invasion (LVI). 260 patients (56.9%) were HER2 positive; 408 patients had PR negative or low expression; 327 patients' (71.6%) Ki-67 status were > 20%. 388 patients (85%) received chemotherapy. Of those 388 patients, 90% patients received anthracycline combined with taxol chemotherapy regimens. 170 patients (37.2%)received ET. Before 2010, only 25.7% patients with low ER expression received ET. The proportion of ET increased after the 2010 ASCO/CAP guideline was published. In 2013, 50% patients received ET. The rate of ET was totally different in six hospitals. 55% patients received ET in the hospital with highest rate, while only 4% patients received ET in the hospital with lowest rate. Using the univariate logistic regression analysis of ET, ER expression, PR expression, Ki-67 status and LVI were associated with the rate of ET. But after adjustment for other covariates, only ER level was significantly associated with the rate of ET. Compared to patients with ER<5% tumors, patients with ER≥5% tumors had a significantly higher probability of ET rate (OR, 2.882; 95% CI: 1.928-4.308; P < 0.001). Median follow time was 30 months. The 5-year RFS rate was 85%. Younger age and positive lymph nodes were associated with worse RFS. Survival rate did not differ significantly between patients with or without ET (without ER vs with ET: OR, 0.870; 95% CI: 0.508-1.448; p=0.61). Conclusions: 2010 ACSO/CAP recommendation indeed result in an increase of ET rate for patients with 1%-9% ER positive. But these patients do not appear to benefit from ET. Prospective studies are needed for these patients and we need more accurate way to evaluate ER levels, which associate with endocrine response.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the expression and distribution of programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) and T-cell immunoglobulin mucin 3 (TIM-3) in breast cancer microenvironment and analyze the their correlation with the clinicopathological features. Methods: The specimens of tumor tissue and adjacent tissues from 30 patients with infiltrative breast cancer who were diagnosed as breast cancer from June 2016 to May 2017 in The First Hospital of Jiaxing were collected, and the specimen were divided into two parts along the center. After embedding and cryosectioning, the expression and distribution of PD-1 and TIM-3 protein in tumor tissues were observed by immunofluorescence staining. Another part of the specimen was cut and digested, and non-continuous density gradient centrifugation was used to extract tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression of PD-1 and TIM-3 in TILs. Meanwhile, the protein expression was determined by Western blotting. The relationship between the expression of PD-1 and TIM-3 and pathological parameters of breast cancer was analyzed with correlation analysis. Results: Immunofluorescence results showed that more PD-1 and TIM-3 positive cells were observed in the tumor tissues compared with the tumor-adjacent tissues. The qRT-PCR showed that the expression of PD-1 and TIM-3 mRNA in TILs were both significantly higher than those in paracancerous tissues (3.09±0.38 vs 1.26±0.23, 3.42±0.31 vs 1.57±0.29, t=4.16, 4.37, both P<0.05). At the protein level, the expression of PD-1 and TIM-3 in tumor tissue lymphocytes(0.66±0.08, 0.80±0.11) was significantly higher than those in cancerous tissues(0.10±0.01, 0.26±0.02) (t=6.79, 4.57, both P<0.05). There were significant differences in the expression of PD-1, TIM-3 mRNA in the TILs between the different tumor histological grades, tumor sizes, lymph node metastasis (t=2.22-2.99, all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between the expression of PD-1 and TIM-3 in tumor tissues (r=0.616, P<0.01). Conclusions: In the breast cancer microenvironment, PD-1, TIM-3-mediated signaling pathway plays an important role in the occurrence and development of breast cancer, it provides a new basis for the combination therapy of breast cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the application value of computed tomography angiography (CTA) and three-dimensional reconstruction in repairing high-voltage electrical burn wounds in necks, shoulders, axillas, and upper arms with tissue flaps. Methods: From December 2014 to December 2018, 12 patients with high-voltage electrical burns in necks, shoulders, axillas, and upper arms were hospitalized. The size of wounds ranged from 13 cm×10 cm to 32 cm×15 cm after complete debridement. Before tissue flap repair, the subclavian artery-axillary artery-brachial artery and their branches were examined by CTA. The main target vessels and their branches were conducted by three-dimensional reconstruction, and the development of the axis vessels for the tissue flaps planning to dissect and their branches were observed. For wounds in upper arms, amputation stump bone exposed wounds, and wounds in axillas and the anterior, the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap is the first choice for repair, if the thoracodorsal artery and internal and external branches are well developed according to CTA examination. Latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flaps were used in 6 patients with the area of myocutaneous flap ranging from 16 cm×12 cm to 32 cm×17 cm. All the donor sites were covered by split-thickness skin graft of thighs. For large wounds in occiputs, necks, and scapulas, the contralateral lower trapezius myocutaneous flap is the first choice for repair, if the superficial descending branch and deep branch of the contralateral transverse cervical artery are well developed according to CTA examination. For small wounds in necks and scapulas, the ipsilateral lower trapezius myocutaneous flap can be used for repair, if the superficial descending branch of the ipsilateral transverse cervical artery is well developed according to CTA examination. Lower trapezius myocutaneous flaps were used in 4 patients with the area of myocutaneous flap ranging from 18 cm×12 cm to 25 cm×17 cm. The donor site of one patient was sutured directly and the donor site of the other 3 patients was covered by split-thickness skin graft of thighs. For wounds in the posteromedial side of upper arms and the anterior side of axillas, the lateral thoracic skin flaps can be used for repair, if the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap can not be utilized for reasons of back burn or no muscle is needed for dead space, when the blood supply of side chest skin is reliable according to CTA examination. Lateral thoracic skin flaps were used in 2 patients with the area of skin flap ranging from 16 cm×12 cm to 17 cm×14 cm. The donor site of one patient was sutured directly and the donor site of the other one patient was covered by split-thickness skin graft of thigh. Results: During the operation of tissue flap repair in 12 patients, the orientation and starting position of the axis vessels were consistent with those observed by CTA examination before operation. All the tissue flaps survived after operation. During follow-up of 1 to 24 months, the patients were satisfied with no serious scar contracture affecting the function nor secondary infection or chronic ulcer. Conclusions: CTA and its three-dimensional reconstruction technique can clearly reconstruct the subclavian artery-axillary artery-brachial artery and their branches before repair of high-voltage burn wounds in necks, shoulders, axillas, and upper arms. It can be used to observe whether the vessels are embolized or not and the starting position and orientation of blood vessels, which can provide an important reference for the selection of tissue flap transplantion.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relations of foramen rotundum structure direction and surrounding structure systematically in order to choose the best approach of percutaneous puncturing of radiofrequency thermocoagulation for treating V2 of primary trigeminal neuralgia. Methods: A total of 122 patients with V2 of primary trigeminal neuralgia for radiofrequency thermocoagulation were enrolled from August 2012 to May 2017 at the First Hospital of Jiaxing. CT scan images were observed retrospectively, to find the inside and outside of the foramen rotundum. The direction of foramen rotundum were recorded and the best approach of puncturing were analyzed. Results: The images were divided into four quadrants with the semi - coronal CT scan plane of the lower margin of the zygomatic arch and the outer edge of foramen rotundum for horizontal axis, and the sagittal plane for the vertical axis. In 122 cases, foramen rotundum direction in outer upper quadrant were 77 cases(63.1%), and in outer under quadrant were 22 cases(18.0%), and in inner upper quadrant were 19 cases(15.6%), and in inner under quadrant were 4 cases(3.3%). Conclusion: The most common foramen rotundum direction is in outer upper quadrant, so the best approach of percutaneous puncturing of radiofrequency thermocoagulation for treating V2 of primary trigeminal neuralgia is the upper side against zygomatic and the inner side against the wall of maxillary sinus.

Abstract
The biological functions of high-mobility group (HMG) proteins include regulation of DNA replication, transcription, recombination and repair. According to molecular weight, sequence alignment and DNA structural characteristics, HMG proteins are subdivided into three superfamilies (HMGA, HMGB and HMGN). Recently, HMGB family members (HMGB1, HMGB2, HMGB3, and HMGB4) found to interact with hepatitis B or C virus. Therefore, activation of relevant signaling molecules to regulate transcription of genes related to hepatocellular carcinoma as a mediator of inflammation promoting HCC progression has attracted considerable attentions. This article focuses on the clinical application of the expression of HMGB family members in the process of HCC progression.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relationship between abnormal angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) expression and invasion/metastasis of lung cancer. Methods: Totally 122 cases of postoperative primary lung cancer tissues and their paracancerous tissues from Jan. 2009 to Dec. 2010 were collected from Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University and Ang-2 expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. At the cellular level, the protein and mRNA levels of Ang-2 in lung epithelial cell line Beas-2B and four lung cancer cell lines (SPCA-1, NCI-1650, A549 and NCI-H1975) were observed. The most effective Ang-2-shRNA for Ang-2 transcription was screened and transfected into A 549 lung cancer cells. The Ang-2 expression, Ang-2 gene transcription, cell proliferation, invasion/metastasis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) abilities of lung cancer cells were analyzed by Western blotting, fluorescent quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR, Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, and Transwell cell models for exploring the relationship between Ang-2 expression and invasion/metastasis of lung cancer. Results: The higher Ang-2 expression levels in lung cancerous tissues were closely related to tumor diameter (P=0.008), differentiating degree (P=0.033), TNM stage (P=0.025) and 5-year survival rate (P<0.001). According to the Kaplan-Meier survival curves, the 5-year survival rate of patients with higher expression levels of Ang-2 (16.1%) was significantly poorer than that of patients with lower Ang-2 (80.0%, P<0.001). Significant difference of 5-year survival rate was found in patients with different Ang-2 levels at TNM stage Ⅰ(P<0.001), but not at stage Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ. Among Beas-2B and four lung cancer cell lines, the protein and mRNA levels of Ang-2 in A549 cells were the highest. After Ang-2-shRNA-1 plasmid successfully transfected into A549 cells, cell proliferation rate was significantly lower than that in the shRNA-negative or blank group at a time-dependent manner. The significant decrease of the invasion, migration and EMT abilities were also found in A549 cells after transfection of Ang-2 shRNA. Conclusion: Abnormal expression of Ang-2 is closely related to invasion, migration and prognosis of lung cancer, and interfering the activation of Ang-2 would be a novel molecular-targeted therapy for lung cancer.
