Specifically, XAP can effectively inhibitthe growth of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a key HCC diagnostic marker andis closely related to certain malignant cytological behaviors of HCC. However, whether AFP expression andXAP treatment are related to the invasion and metastasis of HCC remains unclear. In the present study, weaimed to evaluate the effects and underlying mechanism of XAP on the invasion and metastasis of HCC..Methods Using a cell scratch assay, Transwell technology, and western blotting we detected the differentinvasion and metastatic abilities of Hep3B cells in XAP treatment and blank control groups. This allowedcomparison of the invasion and metastatic abilities of Hep3B cells with differing levels of AFP expression.AFP mRNA sequencing technology was used to analyze the mechanism of tumor invasion and metastasisassociated with AFP and XAP treatment.Results Cell invasion and metastasis abilities in the XAP group were significantly lower than those in thecontrol group (P < 0.05). Additionally, compared to the control group, the expression of AFP significantlydecreased after XAP treatment (P < 0.05). The ability of Hep3B cells to invade and metastasize waspromoted when AFP expression was up-regulated, whereas it was inhibited when AFP was silenced. XAPinjection and AFP regulate the invasion and metastatic ability of HCC by affecting matrix metalloproteinases(MMPs).Conclusion XAP injection inhibits the invasion and metastatic ability of HCC by influencing the expressionof AFP;additionally, this inhibition of AFP is achieved by affecting MMPs.展开更多

Two assessors independently reviewed each trial. The primary outcome was the effective rate(ER) of Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract combined with chemotherapy. The secondary outcomes included quality of life improvement rate(QOLIR) and adverse reactions. Statistical calculations were performed by using Cochrane Collaboration Review Manager 5.2.RESULTS: A total of 888 patients from 15 studies,13 randomized controlled trials(RCT) and two controlled clinical trials, were included. Compared with chemotherapy alone, Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract plus chemotherapy significantly improved ER [Risk ratio(RR) =1.32, 95% CI,(1.14, 1.54)](based on 15 studies) and QOLIR [RR = 2.04, 95% CI,(1.69, 2.47)](based on 13studies). Compared with chemotherapy alone,Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract plus chemotherapy significantly inhibited chemotherapy-induced white blood cell decline [RR = 0.79, 95% CI,(0.70, 0.90)(based on 10 studies), chemotherapy-induced platelet decline[RR = 0.77, 95% CI,(0.60, 0.98)](based on 8 studies),and significantly alleviated nausea and vomiting(NV) [RR = 0.83, 95% CI,(0.71, 0.97)](based on 7studies). There was no significant difference in hemoglobin decline between the two therapies [RR =0.88, 95% CI,(0.70, 1.09)](based on 6 studies).CONCLUSION: This Meta-analysis suggests that Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract combined with chemotherapy may be more efficacious in the treatment of advanced NSCLC than chemotherapy alone. This effect includes enhancing ER and QOLIR, and weakening chemotherapy toxicity. However, large-scale RCTs are required to further investigate the short- and long-term effects of Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract.展开更多

文摘OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced non-small celllung cancer(NCSLC) compared with chemotherapy alone.METHODS: Databases including Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, China Biology Medicine Disc, Wanfang, and MEDLINE were searched until April 1, 2014. Two assessors independently reviewed each trial. The primary outcome was the effective rate(ER) of Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract combined with chemotherapy. The secondary outcomes included quality of life improvement rate(QOLIR) and adverse reactions. Statistical calculations were performed by using Cochrane Collaboration Review Manager 5.2.RESULTS: A total of 888 patients from 15 studies,13 randomized controlled trials(RCT) and two controlled clinical trials, were included. Compared with chemotherapy alone, Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract plus chemotherapy significantly improved ER [Risk ratio(RR) =1.32, 95% CI,(1.14, 1.54)](based on 15 studies) and QOLIR [RR = 2.04, 95% CI,(1.69, 2.47)](based on 13studies). Compared with chemotherapy alone,Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract plus chemotherapy significantly inhibited chemotherapy-induced white blood cell decline [RR = 0.79, 95% CI,(0.70, 0.90)(based on 10 studies), chemotherapy-induced platelet decline[RR = 0.77, 95% CI,(0.60, 0.98)](based on 8 studies),and significantly alleviated nausea and vomiting(NV) [RR = 0.83, 95% CI,(0.71, 0.97)](based on 7studies). There was no significant difference in hemoglobin decline between the two therapies [RR =0.88, 95% CI,(0.70, 1.09)](based on 6 studies).CONCLUSION: This Meta-analysis suggests that Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract combined with chemotherapy may be more efficacious in the treatment of advanced NSCLC than chemotherapy alone. This effect includes enhancing ER and QOLIR, and weakening chemotherapy toxicity. However, large-scale RCTs are required to further investigate the short- and long-term effects of Tongguanteng(Radix seu Herba Marsdeniae Tenacissimae) extract.
