This study is aimed at analyzing the anticancer properties of papaya leaf extract, specifically the inhibition of cell proliferation and apoptotic induction through nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) and p53 pathways. Twenty-five mice (Mus musculus), aged 2 months and weighing 20–30 g, was injected with 0.5 mg dexamethasone for 7 days. The mice were then injected intracutaneously with 1 ml of HeLa cells (8 × 106 HeLa cells/microliter). The mice were divided into five groups (5 each): negative control (P1) (5% CMC-Na, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose), treatment II (225 mg/kg BW (body weight) papaya leaves methanol extract), treatment III (450 mg/kg BW), treatment IV (750 mg/kg BW), and treatment PV (2 mg alcohol anticancer drug). Papaya leaf extract treatments were applied for 2 weeks. Then, the tumor tissue was isolated for hematoxylin and eosin staining. Immunohistochemical imaging was used to detect Ki-67, caspase-3, NF-κB, and p53 expression. Further analysis was undertaken using the ImmunoRatio software program. The results indicated that administration of papaya leaf methanol extract significantly increased the expression of NF-κB and p53 at a dose of 450 mg/kg BW. Our results also showed that the mice treated with 450 mg of papaya leaf extract per kg of BW (P3) had the largest increase of caspase-3 expression compared to the negative control group. Papaya leaf ethanol extract decreased the cancer cell proliferation index and increased apoptosis of cancer cells in animal models of cervical cancer; it may also work to increase NF-kB expression and expression of the p53 gene.

High-risk HPV16 is an important factor for cervical cancer. HPV16 E7 can promote the malignant transformation of cervical epithelial cells. Forkhead box protein A1 (FOXA1) is abnormally expressed in several tumors. Our study assessed HPV16 E7's effect on cervical cancer cells. Hela cells were divided into control group; HPV16 E7 group; and siFOXA1+ HPV16 E7 group followed by analysis of HPV16 E7 and FOXA1 expression by Real-time PCR and Western blot, cell proliferation by MTT assay, Caspase 3 activity, Bax and Bcl-2 expression by Real-time PCR as well as cell invasion by Transwell assay. In HPV16 E7 group, HPV16 E7 and HOXA1 expression was significantly increased, cell proliferation was promoted, invasive ability was increased, Caspase 3 activity and Bax expression was decreased, and Bcl-2 expression was increased compared to control group (P < 0 05). Conversely, inhibition of FOXA1 expression in Hela cells overexpressing HPV16 E7 can significantly inhibit cell proliferation and invasion, and promote apoptosis (P < 0 05). HPV16 E7 protein can up-regulate FOXA1 in host cells, and promote cervical cancer cell growth, proliferation and invasion, indicating that it is one of the key factors contributing to cervical cancer.

As a common malignant tumor in neurosurgery, glioma is characterized as high incidence rate, easy to invade, metastasize and recurrent. It is difficult to treat and has a poor prognosis. The gliomas pathogenesis is complex and has not been fully resolved. Therefore, finding effective molecular targets for glioma is beneficial to improve therapeutic effect. The SRY-related high mobility group box 9 (SOX9) gene involves in mammalian development and is significantly increased in glioma. However, SOX9’s role in gliomas is unclear. The glioma cell line U87 was assigned into control group, scramble group that was transfected with siRNA negative control, and SOX9 siRNA group that was transfected with SOX9 siRNA followed by analysis of SOX9 mRNA and protein level by qPCR and Western blot, cell proliferation by MTT assay, cell apoptosis by Caspase 3 activity assay, cell invasion by Transwell assay, and MMP-9 level by ELISA. SOX9 siRNA transfection significantly downregulated SOX9 mRNA and protein expressions, inhibited U87 cell proliferation, enhanced Caspase 3 activity, suppressed cell invasion of U87, decreased the secretion of MMP-9 in the supernatant, and reduced ERK1/2 and P38 phosphorylation levels (P < 0.05). SOX9 can regulate the progression of glioma by regulating ERK/P38 signaling pathway, promoting cell apoptosis, inhibiting cell proliferation, and restraining cell invasion.

Female cervical cancer is largely formed by Human papillomavirus (HPV), the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women worldwide. HPV-52 is a regionally common high-risk type of cervical cancer found mostly in Asia and reveals geographical variations, in order of importance, as types HPV-16 and -18. However, the differing propensities of HPV types in progressing to cancer, focusing on HPV-52 vaccines, are limited. Several plant-based vaccines against cancer have been developed, and the production of candidate HPV therapeutic vaccines using plant-derived expression platforms is also proven. The objectives of this study were to assess the HPV-52L1 Capsid gene by transferring HPV-52L1 Capsid cDNA into rice (Oryza sativa L.) via an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, and accumulating HPV-52L1 Capsid proteins in a plant-based expression system to maintain and improve antigenicity. Crude protein extracts containing 5~20 μg from OsHP-52L1 transgenic lines induced cell death and significantly reduced cell proliferation in HPV-positive HeLa cervical cancer cells compared with those non-transformant (NT) rice plants. However, no significant cytotoxicity of induced human breast MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation (as negative control) was observed at any dose compared with NT groups. HeLa cells ameliorated the effects of OsHPV crude protein extracts on cell viability as the extract concentration increased, and treatment with 20 μg of the extract from OsHPV-3 significantly reduced cell viability in HeLa cells (26%) compared with the control group (57%). Our results can be used for exploring the potential of plants for increasing the immunogenicity of OsHPV-52L1 Capsid DNA vaccines, and support the development of cost-effective HPV vaccines, which is highly desirable for resource-poor countries.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of EBI3 on radiation-induced immunosuppression of cervical cancer HeLa cells by regulating Treg cells through PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway. A total of 43 adult female Wistar rats were selected and injected with HeLa cells in the caudal vein to construct a rat model of cervical cancer. All model rats were randomly divided into the radiotherapy group ( n = 31) and the control group ( n = 12). The immunophenotype of Treg cells was detected by the flow cytometry. The protein expressions of EBI3, PD-1, and PD-L1 in cervical cancer tissues were tested by the streptavidin–peroxidase method. HeLa cells in the logarithmic growth phase were divided into four groups: the blank, the negative control group, the EBI3 mimics group, and the EBI3 inhibitors group. Western blotting was used to detect PD-1 and PD-L1 protein expressions. MTT assay was performed to measure the proliferation of Treg cells. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell cycle and apoptosis, and CD4+/CD8+ T cell ratio in each group. Compared with before and 1 week after radiotherapy, the percentages of CD4+T cells and CD8+T cells were significantly decreased in the radiotherapy group at 1 month after radiotherapy. Furthermore, down-regulation of EBI3 and up-regulation of PD-1 and PD-L1 were observed in cervical cancer tissues at 1 month after radiotherapy. In comparison to the blank and negative control groups, increased expression of EBI3 and decreased expressions of PD-1 and PD-L1 were found in the EBI3 mimics group. However, the EBI3 inhibitors group had a lower expression of EBI3 and higher expressions of PD-1 and PD-L1 than those in the blank and negative control groups. The EBI3 mimics group showed an increase in the optical density value (0.43 ± 0.05), while a decrease in the optical density value (0.31 ± 0.02) was found in the EBI3 inhibitors group. Moreover, compared with the blank and negative control groups, the apoptosis rates of Treg/CD4+T/CD8+T cells were decreased in the EBI3 mimics group, but the EBI3 inhibitors group exhibited an increase in apoptosis rate. In conclusion, over-expression of EBI3 could reduce the apoptosis of Treg/CD4+T/CD8+T cells and prevent radiation-induced immunosuppression of cervical cancer HeLa cells by inhibiting the activation of PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway.

Abnormal LncRNA HOTAIR level is correlated with various cancers and miR-761 can inhibit cancers. LncRNA HOTAIR targets miR-761 by StarBase 2.0 analysis. Our study investigated whether LncRNA HOTAIR can affect cervical cancer cells by regulating miR-761. The control group (NC group), LncRNA HOTAIR group and LncRNA HOTAIR + miR-761 Mimics group were set up to measure LncRNA HOTAIR and miR-761 level by qRT-PCR. Dual fluorescein reporter assay assessed whether miR-761 binds LncRNA HOTAIR. Western blot was used to measure Cyclin D1, Bcl-2 and Tubulin expression and clone formation assay was to assess cell proliferation and Annexin VFITC/PI staining was to detect cell apoptosis. Compared with normal tissues, LncRNA HOTAIR level was significantly higher in cervical cancer tissues, while miR-761 was lower (P < 0.01). LncRNA HOTAIR targets miR-761. Compared with NC group, CyclinD1 and Bcl-2 in LncRNA HOTAIR group were significantly increased (P < 0.01), which were significantly lower in LncRNA HOTAIR + miR-761 Mimics group (P < 0.05). Compared to NC group, miR-761 in LncRNA HOTAIR group was significantly reduced (P < 0.01) and elevated by miR-761 Mimics. In addition, compared to NC group, the number of cell clones in LncRNA HOTAIR group was increased, cell proliferation was increased, and number of apoptotic cells was decreased, which were all reversed in the LncRNA HOTAIR + miR-761 Mimics group. LncRNA HOTAIR targets miR-761, promotes cell proliferation and reduces cell apoptosis. miR-761 mimics can partially prevent the effects of LncRNA HOTAIR.

Wound care is done to accelerate wound healing which can be done by various methods, one of them is traditional care. Traditional wound care can use medicinal plants. Rhodomyrtus tomentosa is a medicinal plant that has an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor and antibacterial content. Thus this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the antiseptic solution of the Rodhomyrtus tomentosa leaf extract on wound healing in male Wistar rats. Method: this research is pure experimental research with post test only control group design. Thirty male white rats were divided into five groups, namely negative control, positive control, Rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaf extract 15%, 30%, and 60%. Rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaf extraction was carried out by maceration method with 70% ethano solvent. The extraction results are divided into 3 concentrations (15%, 30% and 60%). The wound healing process was evaluated by measuring the length of the wound manually from 0 to 10 days in each group. Meanwhile, the number of fibroblast cells was calculated through hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining and observed using an Olympus CX41 microscope with a 10x magnification and objective lens magnification in 3 fields. Result: There was a significant difference in the reduction in wound length (p =< 0,000) between the five experimental groups (Rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaf extract solution 15%, 30% and 60%, negative control and positive control. Solution of rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaf extract accelerated the increase in the number of fibroblasts compared to the negative control group (p = 0.003), but did not make a difference (p = 0.403) with the positive control group. Rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaf extraction solution had the same microscopic effect on the number of fibroblasts with a positive control group given 0.9% NaCl solution. Conclusion: There was a significant difference in the number of fibroblasts between all groups, but no difference in wound healing length.
