Objective: To explore the effects of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ASODN) on proliferation and apoptosis in gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 cells and the molecular mechanisms induced by ASODN.
Methods: survivin ASODN-1, survivin ASODN-2 and survivin ASODN-3 were transfected into BGC-823 cells by Lipofectamine(TM) 2000 transfection reagent. The growth activity of BGC-823 cells was detected by MTT assay. Apoptosis index (AI), proliferation index (PI), cell cycle and expressions of survivin, VEGF and Smac/DIABLO proteins were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). The changes of survivin mRNA, VEGF mRNA and Smac/DIABLO mRNA were detected by RT-PCR.
Results: The expression of survivin was down-regulated by the three ASODN sequences, especially the ASODN-2 was best. At 48 hours after transfection with 600 nmol/L survivin ASODN-2, the cells in G(1)/G(0) phase were significantly increased [(72.25 ± 2.95)%], apoptotic index increased [(11.31 ± 0.38)%], proliferation index decreased [(27.77 ± 2.97)%], compared with those in the control group [(56.25 ± 0.75)%, (1.62 ± 0.36)%, (43.80 ± 0.80)%, all P < 0.05]. The survivin mRNA and protein levels (0.523 ± 0.091, 0.733 ± 0.009) were down-regulated compared with those in the control group (0.861 ± 0.047, 0.997 ± 0.233), VEGF (0.519 ± 0.076, 0.75 ± 0.006) were down-regulated compared with those in the control group (0.779 ± 0.059, 1.000 ± 0.01), while those of Smac/DIABLO(0.899 ± 0.113, 1.637 ± 0.023)were up-regulated compared with those in the control group (0.558 ± 0.041, 1.000 ± 0.049, all P < 0.05).
Conclusions: Survivin ASODN can induce apoptosis and inhibit the proliferation of gastric cancer cell line BGC-823 cells. Those effects are induced through up-regulation of Smac/DIABLO and down-regulation of survivin and VEGF expression simultaneously.

Background: Chromosome segregation 1 like () overexpression can promote proliferation and migration in cancer. In previous study, we found that CSE1L expression was higher in gastric cancer (GC) tissues compared to normal tissues. However, the biological function and molecular mechanism of CSE1L in GC remains unclear.

H NMR, C NMR, ESI-HRMS, IR, element analysis, UV/Vis spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy were performed to comprehensively characterize their chemical structures, spectral properties and stability. Nitrosamine impurities were not detected in 3a-3d, and the systemic toxicological assessment indicated that the toxicity of 3a-3d was lower.

Background/aim: Chemotherapy based on 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) is the first-line treatment for advanced gastric cancer (GC) patients. Importantly, 5-Fu resistance is recognized as a major obstacle for the successful treatment of GC. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are non-coding RNAs involved in the pathogenesis of GC.

Wogonin is a compound extracted from the medicinal plant Scutellaria baicalensis Geogi and has been found to exert antitumor activities in a variety of malignancies. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in the anti-gastric cancer (GC) effects of wogonin remain poorly understood. In the present study, we found that wogonin treatment inhibited the proliferation of GC cells, induced apoptosis and G0/G1 cell arrest, and suppressed the migration and invasion of SGC-7901 and BGC-823 cells in vitro.

Background: Although there have been significant advancements in the treatment modalities for gastric cancer (GC) in recent years, the overall prognosis remains poor, particularly for individuals in advanced stages. The absence of a sensitive tumor marker in GC is a crucial factor contributing to this challenge.
Methods: Our study focused on investigating a newly discovered long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) known as TCONS_00251376, which has been confirmed to exhibit differential expression in GC compared to adjacent tissues.
