Abstract

<p class="first" id="d10042456e107">Aberrant expressions of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) contribute to carcinogenesis via regulating tumor suppressors or oncogenes. LncRNA nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) has been recognized as an oncogene to promote tumor progression of many cancers. However, the function of NEAT1 in glioma remains poorly discovered. Currently, we focused on the role of NEAT1 in glioma. Here, we found that NEAT1 was greatly upregulated in glioma cells compared with normal human astrocytes (NHAs). Meanwhile, miR-107 was significantly downregulated in glioma cell lines. Then, we observed that knockdown of NEAT1 suppressed the growth and invasion of glioma cells including U251 and SW1783 cells. Reversely, overexpression of NEAT1 dramatically induced glioma cell survival, increased cell colony formation, and promoted cell invasion ability. Subsequently, bioinformatics analysis was performed to predict the correlation between NEAT1 and miR-107. Moreover, it was revealed that NEAT1 could modulate miR-107 via serving as an endogenous sponge of miR-107. The direct binding correlation between NEAT1 and miR-107 was validated in our study. In addition, cyclin dependent kinase 14 (CDK14) was predicted as an messenger RNA target of miR-107 and the association between them was confirmed in our research. Moreover, we implied that NEAT1 demonstrated its biological functions via regulating miR-107 and CDK14 in vivo. In summary, our findings indicated that NEAT1/miR-107/CDK14 axis participated in glioma development. NEAT1 could act as a significant prognostic biomarker in glioma progression. </p>

Radiotherapy plus Concomitant and Adjuvant Temozolomide for Glioblastoma

Roger Stupp, Warren P Mason, Martin J van den Bent … (2005)

Glioblastoma, the most common primary brain tumor in adults, is usually rapidly fatal. The current standard of care for newly diagnosed glioblastoma is surgical resection to the extent feasible, followed by adjuvant radiotherapy. In this trial we compared radiotherapy alone with radiotherapy plus temozolomide, given concomitantly with and after radiotherapy, in terms of efficacy and safety. Patients with newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed glioblastoma were randomly assigned to receive radiotherapy alone (fractionated focal irradiation in daily fractions of 2 Gy given 5 days per week for 6 weeks, for a total of 60 Gy) or radiotherapy plus continuous daily temozolomide (75 mg per square meter of body-surface area per day, 7 days per week from the first to the last day of radiotherapy), followed by six cycles of adjuvant temozolomide (150 to 200 mg per square meter for 5 days during each 28-day cycle). The primary end point was overall survival. A total of 573 patients from 85 centers underwent randomization. The median age was 56 years, and 84 percent of patients had undergone debulking surgery. At a median follow-up of 28 months, the median survival was 14.6 months with radiotherapy plus temozolomide and 12.1 months with radiotherapy alone. The unadjusted hazard ratio for death in the radiotherapy-plus-temozolomide group was 0.63 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.52 to 0.75; P<0.001 by the log-rank test). The two-year survival rate was 26.5 percent with radiotherapy plus temozolomide and 10.4 percent with radiotherapy alone. Concomitant treatment with radiotherapy plus temozolomide resulted in grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxic effects in 7 percent of patients. The addition of temozolomide to radiotherapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma resulted in a clinically meaningful and statistically significant survival benefit with minimal additional toxicity.

Cell cycle proteins as promising targets in cancer therapy

Tobias Otto, Piotr Sicinski (2017)

Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled tumour cell proliferation resulting from aberrant activity of various cell cycle proteins. Therefore, cell cycle regulators are considered attractive targets in cancer therapy. Intriguingly, animal models demonstrate that some of these proteins are not essential for proliferation of non-transformed cells
