不同病理分期肺腺癌患者血清代谢组学研究

肺癌是当今世界最常见的恶性肿瘤之一,其新发率和死亡率多年来都居于各类癌症之首,其中85%的肺癌都是非小细胞癌,而腺癌又是最常见的非小细胞癌。肺癌的高隐匿性是造成其高死亡率的最主要原因,因此为肺癌的早期诊断和病理分期寻求高效可靠的方法是十分必要的。代谢组学揭示了小分子代谢物的一系列变化,反映了生命活动的最终状态,因此也能直接反映疾病不同发展阶段的病理生理变化。本研究利用核磁共振氢谱(1H-NMR),对在我院就诊的27例不同病理分期的肺腺癌患者和13例健康志愿者进行了血清代谢物分析,运用正交偏最小二乘判别分析(OPLS-DA)对1H-NMR数据进行建模,单变量统计分析对模型进行评价。结果表明肺腺癌患者组的血清中有14种代谢物出现明显差异,其中丙酮酸、丙氨酸、NAC1、乳酸、GPC和甘氨酸比起对照组来有显著上升,而葡萄糖、谷氨酰胺、亮氨酸、异亮氨酸、缬氨酸、丙酮、乙酰乙酸和苏氨酸则显著下降。而在不同分期肺腺癌患者间进行比较后发现,异亮氨酸、乙酰乙酸、NAC1和乳酸的变化与肺腺癌的发展有相关性,可能是肺腺癌早期诊断和分期的潜在生物标志物。     

Software simulation of tumour motion dose effects during flattened and unflattened ITV-based VMAT lung SBRT

PurposeRestricted studies comparing different dose rate parameters are available while ITV-based VMAT lung SBRT planning leads to perform the analysis of the most suitable parameters of the external beams used. The special emphasis was placed on the impact of dose rate on dose distribution variations in target volumes due to interplay effects.MethodsFour VMAT plans were calculated for 15 lung tumours using 6 MV photon beam quality (flattening filter FF vs. flattening filter free FFF beams) and maximum dose rate of 600 MU/min, 1000 MU/min and 1400 MU/min. Three kinds of motion simulations were performed finally giving 180 plans with perturbed dose distributions.Results6FFF-1400 MUs/min plans were characterized by the shortest beam on time (1.8 ± 0.2 min). Analysing the performed motion simulation results, the mean dose (Dmean) is not a sensitive parameter to related interplay effects. Looking for local maximum and local minimum doses, some discrepancies were found, but their significance was presented for individual patients, not for the whole cohort. The same was observed for other verified dose metrics.ConclusionsGenerally, the evaluation of VMAT robustness between FF and FFF concepts against interplay effect showed a negligible effect of simulated motion influence on tumour coverage among different photon beam quality parameters. Due to the lack of FFF beams, smaller radiotherapy centres are able to perform ITV-based VMAT lung SBRT treatment in a safe way. Radiotherapy department having FFF beams could perform safe, fast and efficient ITV-based VMAT lung SBRT without a concern about significance of interplay effects.     

Impact of lung density on isolated lung tumor dose in VMAT using inline MR-Linac

PurposeThis study investigated the impact of lung density on the isolated lung tumor dose for volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) in an inline magnetic resonance linear accelerator (MR-Linac) using the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation.MethodsCT images of the thorax phantoms with lung tumors of 1, 2, and 3 cm diameters were converted into voxel-base phantoms with lung densities of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 g/cm³, respectively. The dose distributions were calculated for partial-arc VMAT. The dose distributions were compared using dose differences, dose volume histograms, and dose volume indices.ResultsIn all cases, the inline magnetic field significantly enhanced the lung tumor dose compared to that at 0 T. For the 1 cm lung tumor, the inline magnetic field of 1 T increased the minimum dose of 95% of the Planning target volume (PTV D₉₅) by 14.0% in 0.1 g/cm³ lung density as compared to that in 0.3 g/cm³ at 0 T. In contrast, at 0 and 0.5 T, the PTV D₉₅ in 0.3 g/cm³ lung density was larger than that in lung density of 0.1 g/cm³. For the 2 cm lung tumor, a similar tendency to 1 cm was observed, whereas the dose impact of lung density was smaller than that for 1 cm. For the 3 cm lung tumor, the lung tumor dose was independent of lung density at 0.5 T and 1.0 T.ConclusionThe inline MR-Linac with the magnetic field over 1 T can enhance the PTV D₉₅ for VMAT regardless of the lung density.     

Silencing LINC00504 inhibits cell proliferation,invasion as well as migration and promotes cell apoptosis in lung cancer cells via upregulating miR-876-3p

LINC00504 acts as an oncogene and associates with unfavorable prognosis in patients with lung cancer. Silencing LINC00504 may be a promising strategy for treatment of lung cancer and its effects were firstly investigated in lung cancer cells this study. The gene expression level of miR-876-3p as well as LINC00504 were measured via PCR assay. The cell proliferation was investigated through Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and colony formation assay. Flow cytometry was applied for detection of cell apoptosis. Wound healing and transwell assay were performed for measurement of cell migration and invasion respectively. The apoptosis related protein expressions were measured by western blot. Luciferase report assay was conducted for verification the target gene. LINC00504 was higher expressed in five types of lung cancer cells studied herein when compared with the control normal cells. LINC00504 knockdown exerted inhibitory effects on cell apoptosis, cell migration as well as cell invasion and promoted cell apoptosis. All the effects mentioned above were counteracted by miR-876-3p inhibitor. Silencing LINC00504 possessed anti-proliferation, repression of cell invasion as well as migration and pro-apoptosis effects via targeting up-regulation of miR-876-3p in lung cancer cells, proving the new therapeutic targets and highlighting the potential application in future diagnosis and treatment in lung cancer.
