1.Expression and significance of HA117 gene in tumor
Journal of International Oncology 2015;(10):747-749
HA1 1 7,as a multiple drug resistance(MDR)gene,has recently been discovered.It may mediate the MDR of tumor through Bcl-2 anti-apoptotic pathways.HA1 1 7 gene exists high expression in leuke-mia,lymphoma,breast cancer,neuroblastoma,colon adenocarcinoma and so on,and its overexpression is closely associated with the MDR and poor prognosis of these tumors.
2.Progress of TRAIL and its application in leukemia therapy
International Journal of Pediatrics 2010;37(2):139-141
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand(TRAIL) is a new anti-tumor biological agents which is very hot in recent years through its death receptor-induced apoptosis of tumor cells,and non-toxic to normal cells,and has synergy with the chemotherapy drug,but there is also resistance mechanisms.This article will review the biological characteristics of TRAIL and its receptors,TRAIL-induced apoptosis of tumor cells,as well as the mechanism of TRAIL in leukemia in the progress of treatment.
3.HOXA5 gene and tumor
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(9):652-656
As a member of homeobox gene family,HOXA5 is expressed in many organs and can regulate gene expression,cell differentiation and morphogenesis.Its structure and (or) function abnormalities are closely related to the development of leukemia,breast cancer,brain hemangioma,hepatocellular carcinoma and so on.Researching the relationships between HOXA5 and tumors contributes to cancer diagnosis,treatment and prevention.
4.Progress of homeobox gene family in nervous system
International Journal of Pediatrics 2011;38(6):624-627
Homeobox gene family encode a kind of transcription regulatory factors,which can specifically combine and regulate target genes,control embryonic development,cell proliferation and differentiation.Several subfamilies of homeobox gene famiy are associated with the early stage of differentiation and development of nervous system,whose abnormal expression explain the occurrence and development of nervous system diseases.Further study between homeobox gene family and nervous system can help to prevent and treat that diseases.
5.CDX gene and tumor
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(9):658-661
The caudal-type homeobox gene is a member of homeobox gene—Para-HOX family,including CDX1,CDX2 and CDX4.As a transcriptional factor,CDX plays an important role in embryo development,hematopoietic system formation,intestinal epithelium tissue development and so forth.The abnormal expression of CDX is usually closely related with tumorigenesis.Researching the relationship between CDX and tumors will contribute to tumor diagnosis and treatment.
6.Relationship between FOX family genes and leukemia
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;(4):397-399
FOX genes code transcription factors. FOXO3a,FOXM1,FOXP3 are members of FOX genes family,which are associated with leukemia. Phosphorylated FOXO3a which loses the function of suppressing leu-kemia is inactive. Phosphorylated FOXO3a expresses in leukemic cell cytoplasm. FOXM1 is an oncogenesis tran-scription factor. FOXM1 highly expresses in myeloid leukemic cells. Expression of FOXP3 in leukemic cells has diversity. FOXP3 mainly expresses in T cell leukemic cells. These genes abrrant expressions play a key role in leukemia pathogenesis,development,therapy,drug resistance and prognosis.
7.Expression and role of HOXC gene in tumor
Journal of International Oncology 2016;43(6):436-438
As a member of homeobox gene family,HOXC is expressed in many organs and can regulate gene expression,cell differentiation and morphogenesis.Abnormality of its function is closely related to the prognosis of leukemia,breast cancer,renal cell carcinoma,prostate cancer and so on.
8.FHIT gene and tumor
Journal of International Oncology 2013;40(8):563-566
The human fragile histidine triad (FHIT) gene is a tumor suppressor gene,which is located at chromosome region 3p14.2.The fragile site FRA3B of the FHIT gene is the most unstable site.FHIT can promote apoptosis,and inhibit cell proliferation and tumorigenesis.High methylation status,loss of the various sections of the FHIT gene,changes of the fragile site FRA3B and abnormalities of FHIT transcripts can result in gene afunction,and then promote the development and progression of various types of cancers.Transfecting wild-type FHIT into tumor cells with low or lacking endogenous FHIT expression can induce apoptosis.The combined treatment with other genes may provide a new insight for the treatment of tumors.
9.Progress of SF3B1 gene mutation and hematological malignancies
International Journal of Pediatrics 2014;(4):354-356,357
The SF3B1 gene encodes subunit 1 of the splicing factor 3b,which is a core component of the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein and plays an important role in the process of RNA splicing. Abnormal splicing caused by SF3B1 mutations are associated with hematological malignancies,particularly with myelodys-plastic syndrome,refractory anemia with ring sideroblasts associated with marked thrombocytosis and chronic lymphocytic leukemia( CLL) . In myelodysplastic syndrome and refractory anemia with ring sideroblasts associat-ed with marked thrombocytosis,SF3B1 mutations are bond up with favorable prognosis and strongly with ring sideroblasts. But in CLL,SF3B1 mutations are factors of poor prognosis.

Objective To compare the Panel reactive antibody (PRA) producing incidence in living and cadaveric transplant for forecasting long term survival. Methods Retrospectively analyze post-transplant PRA of 48 living transplant patients ( December 2003-Sepdtember 2007 ), and 258 cadaveric transplant patients( Feburary 2003-June 2007 ), which in both groups were all PRA negative in pre-transplant. PRA was detected using LAT-1240 (OneLambda) and QUICKSCREE&BSCREEN (GTI). Serum creatine/urea nitrogen level was provided by clinical laboratory. Results Four recipients in 48 living transplant patients showed PRA positive(8.33% ), while 62 receipients in 258 cadaveric transplant patients showed PRA positive(24.03% ) ( P <0.05 ). Three recipients in 35 male living donor transplant patients showed PRA positive(8.57% ) ,while 23.03% PRA positive in male cadaveric transplant patients (P <0.05). In females, 1out of 13 living donor transplant patients showed HLA-Ⅱ positive, whereas 20 out of 106 in cadaveric transplant patients( 18.87% ) ( P < 0. 05). Conclusion The incidence of HLA antibody production was much higher in cadaveric transplant patients than that in those of living donor transplant.
