In the EC group, seven patients developed postoperative complications, but required no surgical treatment, whereas in the SR group, five patients developed postoperative complications and surgical treatment was performed on two patients. There were significant differences in the functional prognosis and surgical efficacy between the two groups; however, the EC group showed more satisfactory results. CONCLUSION The oncological and functional prognosis of patients with RGCT around the knee joint is vital. EC should be considered as the first-line treatment, unless the tumors severely invade the surrounding soft tissues or are accompanied by complex fractures with significant displacement leading to no surgical curettage boundary.

However, its role in rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) has not been determined. In this work, we detected the expression of mir-29a/b/c in RMS. Results showed that the tissues and cell lines in RMS were significantly lower than those in muscle and human skeletal muscle cells, and that these cell lines could also inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion and induce apoptosis of RMS cells. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation verified the direct binding site between mir-29a/b/c and GEFT. Under the combined actions of mir-29a/b/c and GEFT, the former weakened the promoting effect of GEFT on RMS cells. Finally, mir-29a inhibited the tumorigenesis of subcutaneous xenografts in nude mice and inhibited the mRNA and protein expression levels of GEFT in transplanted tumors. These findings proved that mir-29 inhibits the occurrence of RMS and may be a potential molecular target.

We then treated non-metastatic and metastatic melanoma cells with PDMP and exogenous C160 to explore their effects on proliferation, migration, and glycolysis. The long-chain ceramide was also analyzed by LC-MS after treatment. C160 ceramide showed the highest levels in melanocyte and melanoma cells, with all melanomas higher than melanocytes. PDMP inhibited malignant behavior and glycolysis in melanoma, and caused the accumulation of intracellular C160. Exogenous C160 promoted melanoma glycolysis, but not malignant behavior, and decreased intracellular C160. Finally, pyruvate kinase (PK), hexokinase (HK), and lactic acid dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, key enzymes in glycolysis, were altered after treatment with PDMP and exogenous C160.

This study was designed to explore a novel molecular with high sensitivity and specificity, which can be applied in early diagnosis and therapeutic evaluation of HCC. The current study aims to investigate the effect and important role of Axin1 on cell proliferation, invasion, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in hepatocellular carcinoma. qRT-PCR results showed lower Axin1 expression level and higher miR-650 expression level in HCC. Luciferase reporter assay was carried out to verify the negative correlation between Axin1 and miR-650 mRNA levels. CCK-8 assay results showed that the cell proliferation ability was significantly suppressed by Axin1 overexpression in SK-HEP-1 cells. The results in wound healing assay uncovered that cell migration ability was markedly suppressed by Axin1 overexpression. The results in trans-well invasion assay showed that Axin1 overexpression caused decreased invasive ability in SK-HEP-1 cells. The WB results showed that the protein level of E-cad was significantly increased and the protein le
