    Objective To investigate the influence and possible mechanism of berberine on inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells. Methods The inhibitory effect of berberine on the proliferation of HepG2 cells was detected by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8 ) method , while the influence of berberine on cell apoptosis and cell cycle were detected by flow cytometry . The expression of protein and mRNA of B cell translocation gene 2 (BTG2) and Cyclin D1 were determined by Western blotting and real time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) analysis, respectively. Results The proliferation of HepG2 cells were significantly inhibited by berberine in a dose- and time-dependent manner(P<0.01). Berberine blocked the cell cycle in the G1 phase and promoted cell apoptosis, and the rate of apoptosis was proportional to the duration of berberine action(P<0.05). With the extension of time, the expression of BTG2 mRNA and protein were gradually increased(P<0.05), while the mRNA and protein expression levels of Cyclin D1 were significantly decreased(P<0.01). Conclusion Berberine can inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis in HepG2 cells, which may be related to up-regulation of BTG2 expression and down-regulation of Cyclin D1 expression.

    Immunotherapy acts as one of developing therapeutic strategies following traditional surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Recently, immunotherapy shows increasing importance in the comprehensive treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) because of its significant relaibility and efficacy. Several programmed cell death protein 1/ programmed death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors have been approved for the treatment of advanced or metastatic NCCLC in first or second-line setting. In addition, immunotherapy with PD-L1 inhibitor promotes progression-free survival in stage III NSCLC patients who received previously concurrent radiation therapy and chemotherapy. However, due to the limited number of patients who could benefit from approved immunotherapy and the aim of expanding benifit groups, the immunotherapy treatment model of advanced NSCLC still needs continuous optimization, which includes immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy or immunotherapy combined with radiation therapy . Tumor marker-based precision therapy and efficacy with immunotherapy are in rapid development and improvement.
