Fanconi anemia complementation group D2 (FANCD2) has been associated with the sensitivity of tumor cells to DNA crosslinking damaging agents in certain solid tumors. However, its role in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is still unclear. In the present study, the role of FANCD2 in the response of NPC CNE-2 cells to radiation was investigated. A CNE-2 cell model with stable FANCD2 silencing was constructed by lentiviral transfection. Fluorescence quantitative PCR and western blotting were used to evaluate FANCD2 expression in CNE-2 cells. The biological impact of FANCD2 silencing on the response of CNE-2 cells to radiation was investigated in vitro and in vivo. The microarray technology, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry were used to analyze the proteins involved in related pathways after irradiation to investigate the underlying mechanism. Lentivirus-mediated shRNA interference stably silenced the FANCD2 gene in CNE-2 cells. In vitro, in the FANCD2-silenced group, cell proliferation was significantly inhibited, apoptosis was increased, and the cell cycle was arrested at the G2/M phase after irradiation. In vivo, FANCD2 silencing slowed tumor growth, as the volume and weight of the xenograft tumors were significantly decreased. Both in vitro and in vivo, the differentially expressed genes NUPR1, FLI1, and FGF21 were downregulated in the FANCD2-silenced group. Our results show that FANCD2 silencing affected the sensitivity of CNE-2 cells to ionizing radiation by regulating cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle distribution. The mechanism might be associated with changes in NUPR1, FLI1, and FGF21 protein expression due to the FANCD2 silencing. This study provides a promising target for NPC radiotherapy.Analysis of the value of long-term antiviral therapy using sequential Peg-IFN therapy and nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) improves the prognosis of HBV-related HCC. HBV-related HCC patients were classified into sequential therapy with Peg-IFNα-2a and NAs, and NAs therapy alone. All patients were followed up for 5 years. The survival rate, HCC recurrence rate, Child-Pugh score, and side effects of drugs were evaluated. Firstly, the early and late cumulative survival rate was higher in patients receiving antiviral therapy compared with the control patients (p0.05). Compared to the control patients, patients receiving antiviral therapy (NAs alone or sequential therapy with Peg-IFNα-2a and NAs) exhibited a significantly decreased Child-Pugh score (p less then 0.05). Compared to NAs alone, sequential therapy with Peg-IFNα-2a and NAs provided a more efficient strategy for improving both the five-year survival rate and the two-year or five-year recurrence rate in patients.Radioresistance is an important cause of cancer treatment failure. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play crucial roles in cancer development, including the radioresistance. This research aimed to determine the function and related mechanism of circ_0086720 in the radioresistance of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The expression of circ_0086720, miR-375, and Spindlin 1 (SPIN1) was measured using a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Cell survival fraction was analyzed using colony formation assay, and cell apoptosis was monitored by flow cytometry assay. The activities of caspase 3 and caspase 9 were assessed using the corresponding commercial kits. The protein levels of SPIN1 and γH2AX were detected by western blot. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to predict the targets of circ_0086720 and miR-375. Dual-luciferase reporter assay, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay, and RNA pull-down assay were conducted to validate the interaction between miR-375 and circ_0086720 or SPIN1. The animal model was constructed to ascertain the role of circ_0086720 in vivo. The expression of circ_0086720 and SPIN1 was increased in the radioresistant NSCLC tissues, while miR-375 expression was decreased. The circ_0086720 knockdown sensitized NSCLC cells to the radiation to further inhibit cell survival and induce cell apoptosis. Circ_0086720 targeted miR-375 and suppressed miR-375 expression, and miR-375 bound to SPIN1 to impair SPIN1 expression. miR-375 deficiency or SPIN1 overexpression could attenuate circ_0086720 knockdown-mediated radiosensitivity. The circ_0086720 knockdown also enhanced radiosensitivity to further block tumor growth in vivo. To conclude, circ_0086720 downregulation enhanced the sensitivity of NSCLC to radiation by regulating the miR-375/SPIN1 axis, contributing to the improvement of the radiotherapies in NSCLC.The failure to treat and control the growth of metastases is the main cause of death in breast cancer (BC) patients. Compared to the traditional method of analyzing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), capturing intact circulating tumor cells (CTCs) allows us to more accurately characterize mutations and identify suitable targeted therapies. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/beta-lapachone.html We used CellCollector to collect peripheral CTCs. Thirty metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients were enrolled, and 17 were analyzed with next-generation sequencing (NGS) methods. Clinical characteristics were analyzed along with the CTCs enumeration and detection rates. Whole-genome amplification (WGA) was used to amplify the CTC genomic DNA of 127 genes. Patients younger than 45 years old, with brain metastasis, with three or more metastatic sites, or with HER2-positive had the highest number of CTCs collected. The CTCs detection rate was also correlated to the number of metastasis sites. Different metastasis sites such as the brain, viscus, bone, and soft tissue contained specific high-frequency gene mutations. AKT3, MYC, and NT5C2 mutations were only found in brain metastases. APC, BCL2L11, ESRP1, FLT3 mutations were only in the visceral metastases. KEAP1, KIT, MET were the specific mutation genes in patients with bone and soft tissue metastases. These findings provide evidence that we can detect gene mutation information for obtaining the biological characteristics by CTCs using CellCollector. Different metastasis sites contain specific high-frequency mutation genes, which provide guidance to the accurate gene therapy.
