Abstract
The anti-metastasis effect of oridonin in combination with oxaliplatin on colorectal cancer liver metastasis was studied using a BALB/c nude mouse model. The liver condition, bloody ascites, cholestasis, and liver metastasis scores in the three groups receiving oxaliplatin combined with oridonin were significantly milder than in the control group and importantly the anti-migratory effect of oxaliplatin combined with oridonin was obviously the strongest (p<0.05). Oridonin possessed no hepatotoxicity; instead, it effectively alleviated liver injury caused by oxaliplatin. Oridonin alone or in combination with oxaliplatin significantly decreased serum levels of α-fetoprotein and carcinoembryonic antigen. Therefore, oridonin combined with oxaliplatin displays great potential to markedly increase the anti-metastasis effect of oxaliplatin in the treatment of liver metastases of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
We studied metastasis-promoting effect of transmembrane protease TMPRSS4 on mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient colorectal cancer liver metastasis in BALB/c nude mouse model. Histomorphological and histopathological studies showed that the number of liver metastases in the study group were significantly higher than that in the control group (p<0.05). The expression of TMPRSS4 mRNA and protein in the study group were obviously higher than in the control group (p<0.05). These findings suggest that TMPRSS4 possesses a metastasis-promoting effect and its low expression can effectively block the progression of MMR-deficient colon cancer liver metastasis.

Abstract
Background Gastric cancer is a considerable burden for worldwide patients. And diffuse gastric cancer is the most insidious subgroup with poor survival. The phenotypic characterization of the diffuse gastric cancer cell line can be useful for gastric cancer researchers. In this article, we aimed to characterize the diffuse gastric cancer cells with MRI and transcriptomic data. We hypothesized that gene expression pattern is associated with the phenotype of the cells and that the heterogeneous enhancement pattern and the high tumorigenicity of SNU484 can be modulated by the perturbation of the highly expressed gene. Methods We evaluated the 9.4 T magnetic resonance imaging and transcriptomic data of the orthotopic mice models from diffuse gastric cancer cells such as SNU484, Hs746T, SNU668, and KATO III. We included MKN74 as an intestinal cancer control cell. After comprehensive analysis integrating MRI and transcriptomic data, we selected CD34 and validated the effect by shRNA in the BALB/c nude mice models. Results SNU484, SNU668, Hs746T, and MKN74 formed orthotopic tumors by the 5 weeks after cell injection. The diffuse phenotype was found in the SNU484 and Hs746T. SNU484 was the only tumor showing the heterogeneous enhancement pattern on T2 images with a high level of CD34 expression. Knockdown of CD34 decreased the round-void shape in the H&E staining (P = 0.028), the heterogeneous T2 enhancement, and orthotopic tumorigenicity (100% vs 66.7%). The RNAseq showed that the suppressed CD34 is associated with the downregulated gene-sets of the extracellular matrix remodeling. Conclusion Suppression of CD34 in the human-originated gastric cancer cell suggests that it is important for the round-void histologic shape, heterogeneous enhancement pattern on MRI, and the growth of gastric cancer cell line.
