Methods: Ninetyeight cases with stage ⅡⅣ of nasopharyngeal carcinoma were randomly assigned to three groups: conventional fractionation (T1), LCAF (T2), LCAF and low dose cisplatin (T3). At the end of treatment, therapeutic efficacy was compared with each other. Results: The survey periods was 3 months. Comlete response rate (CR) for groups T1, T2 and T3 was 75.0% (24／32), 87.5% (28／32) and 97.1% (33／34), respectively; the group treated with LCAF and cisplatin had highest effective later therapeutic efficacy than other groups. Lymph node of neck of group T3 got better control, although its side effects were more serious, but no significant difference was found among three group. Conclusion: Combined treatment of LCAF radiotherapy and low dose cisplatin has better later therapeutic efficacy on tumor control in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma
This study aims to explore the temporal pattern of DNA breaks induced by nanosecond electric pulses (nsEP) in cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-resistant human ovarian cancer cells. Human ovarian cancer cells A2780 (cisplatin-sensitive subline) and C30 (cisplatin-resistant subline) were exposed to nsEP. Sham exposed groups were shame exposed to nsEP. Cell viability was determined using CCK-8 assay after 0 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h and 24 h, respectively, and the percentage of dead cells was calculated. The DNA break was detected with the alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay), and the 75th percentiles of TL (tail length), TM (tail moment) and OTM (Olive tail moment) were measured. Cell viability displayed an early decrease and late increase, with the valley value seen at 8 h. Percentages of cell death and comet-formed in A2780 cells were higher than those in C30 cells (P<0.05) at 8 h, respectively. TL, TM and OTM in C30 cells were less than those in A2780 cells (P<0.05). The percentage of comet-formed correlated with that of cell death in either A2780 (r=0.997, P<0.05) or C30 (r=0.998, P<0.05) cells. DNA breaks induced by nsEP in cisplatin-sensitive cells differred from that in resistant cells, and DNA break resulted in fraction of cell death.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Despite the development and use of several targeting drugs for lung cancer therapy, the five-year survival rate has remained as low as 15% for the past three decades. Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is considered the first-line therapeutic strategy for lung cancer. However, developments of chemoresistance is a major obstacle for the successful treatment. Therefore, the development of novel therapy against cisplatin-resistance lung cancer is imperative. Photodynamic therapy (PDT), which is a non-invasive combinatorial therapeutic modality using light, photosensitizer (PS) and oxygen, may provide an unprecedented tool to develop more effective treatments. To provide experimental basis for its application in cisplatin-resistance lung cancer, we will discuss the biological effects of MPPa-photodynamic therapy in human cisplatin-resistance lung cancer cells in this article. Human cisplatin-resistance lung cancer cells A549/DDP were co-cultured with MPPa (0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 μmol/L) and exposed to light (0, 0.6, 1.2, 2.4, 3.6, 4.8 J/cm2), and cell viability was determined with CCK-8 assay. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis, DCFH-DA staining was employed to observe reactive oxygen species (ROS), and Western blot was used to detect the expressions of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) protein and Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax). The proliferation of A549/DDP cells was suppressed by PDT. The apop-totic rate in the PDT group was significantly higher than that in the control, MPPa or light group (P < 0.05). The level of ROS was increased. The expression of Bax was increased, and that of Bcl-2 was decreased. MPPa-photodynamic therapy can significantly suppress cell viability, and induce apoptosis in human cisplatin-resistance lung cancer cells.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for more than 80% of lung cancer. Nowadays, gemcitabine and cisplatin in combination have been adopted as the first-line chemotherapy for patients with NSCLC. This study aimed to monitor early response to combined chemotherapy of gemcitabine plus cisplatin in a mouse model of NSCLC by using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose and 18F-fluorothymidine small animal positron emission tomography (PET). Lewis lung carcinoma-bearing C57BL/6 mice were treated with gemcitabine-cisplatin or saline. Small animal PET with 18F-FDG and 18F-FLT was performed before (baseline) and after treatment (on Day 3), respectively. Imaging results were confirmed by histopathological studies (hematoxylin and eosin staining, Ki67 staining). Compared to the results in the control group, gemcitabine-cisplatin in the treated group significantly inhibited tumor growth (P<0.05). In the treated group, the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of 18F-FLT decreased significantly from 0.59±0.05 (baseline) to 0.28±0.05 (Day 3) (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between baseline (4.35±0.46) and that on Day 3 (4.02±0.47) on 18F-FDG SUVmax (P>0.05). The proliferation of tumor assessed by Ki67 staining decreased significantly after treatment of one dose of gemicitabine-cisplatin (P<0.05). The staining of HE showed an increase in necrotic and inflam- matory cells after the treatment. This study demonstrated that the uptake of 18F-FLT reduced more rapidly and signi-ficantly than that of 18F-FDG and was less disturbed by the increase of inflammatory cells after chemotherapy.
ObjectiveTo reveal the potential mechanism of cisplatin resistance in non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells by comparing the expression profiles of wild-type A549 cells and cisplatin-resistant A549 cells (A549/DPP) through whole transcriptome sequencing analysis.MethodsThe cisplatin resistant A549 (A549/DDP) cell line was first established. Then, the whole-transcriptome analysis was conducted both on A549 and A549/DDP cells. Next, the differentially expressed RNAs of lncRNA-seq, circRNA-seq, and miRNA-seq data were identified, respectively, followed by functional enrichment analysis. Finally, a comprehensive analysis based on the whole transcriptome data was performed and the construction of the ceRNA network was carried out.ResultsA total of 4 517 lncRNA, 123 circRNA, and 145 miRNA were differentially expressed in A549/DDP cells compared with the A549 cell line. These different RNAs were significantly enriched in cancer-related pathways. The ceRNA network contained 12 miRNAs, 4 circRNAs, 23 lncRNAs, and 9 mRNA nodes, of which hsa-miR-125a-5p and hsa-miR-125b-5p were important miRNAs based on the topological analysis.ConclusionTumor necrosis factor signaling pathway and p53 signaling pathway are involved in A549/DPP resistance. Hsa-miR-125a-5p and hsa-miR-125b-5p may be potential targets for reversing cisplatin resistance.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of nedaplatin versus cisplatin combined with fluorouracil in the treatment of esophageal neoplasms.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, WanFang, VIP and CBM databases were searched by computer to investigate the randomized controlled studies about the clinical effects of nedaplatin combined with fluorouracil versus cisplatin combined with fluorouracil in the treatment of esophageal neoplasms. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to January 2021. And meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4.ResultsA total of 12 randomized controlled studies involving 744 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the total effective rate of the nedaplatin group was better than that of the cisplatin group (P<0.05). The incidence of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and renal impairment in the nedaplatin group was lower than that in the cisplatin group (P<0.05), but the incidence of leukopenia and hemoglobin decline was higher than that in the cisplatin group (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the incidence of liver injury, or platelet decline between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionNedaplatin combined with fluorouracil has more advantages than cisplatin combined with fluorouracil in the treatment of esophageal cancer, the incidence of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea is lower, and the damage to kidney function is also smaller.
Objective To evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of nedaplatin combined with gemcitabine compared with cisplatin combined with gemcitabine in the treatment of advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma. Methods The Cochrane Library, EMbase, PubMed, Web of Science, Wanfang, VIP, CNKI and China General Library of Biomedical Literature were searched. Literatures related to the efficacy and safety of nedaplatin combined with gemcitabine (nedaplatin group) versus cisplatin combined with gemcitabine (cisplatin group) in the treatment of advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma published from the inception to October 2021 were searched. The quality of included studies was assessed by Cochrane bias assessing tool and the meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.4.
