1.Lung cancer stem cells
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(10):761-764
Recently,studies have demonstrated that several signaling pathways including Wnt,Notch,and Hedgehog which are involved in the regulation of the stem cells are abnormally activated in lung cancer.They are closely associated with some properties of the lung cancer stem cells,such as high tumorigenic,high metastasis,drug resistance and so on.In addition,several studies have shown that the population of the lung cancer stem cells,which are resistant to radiotherapy and chemotherapy significantly,highly express drug resistance proteins.Therefore,how to target lung cancer stem cells and ultimately cure the disease is becoming a hotspot in the cancer targeted therapy.
2.The role of epigenetics on anti-angiogenesis therapy
Journal of International Oncology 2017;44(5):380-382
Epigenetics consists of DNA methylation,post-translational modification of histon,microRNA and long non-coding RNA,which regulate angiogenesis by acting on different targets.Epigenetics has become potential targets of anti-angiogenesis in tumor.
3.Effects of Individualized Enteral Nutritional Support on Nutritional Status and Complications in Severe Stroke Patients
China Pharmacist 2017;20(7):1265-1267
Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of individualized enteral nutritional (EN) support in severe stroke patients.Methods: Totally 120 severe stroke patients with nutritional risk were divided into two groups according to single or double admission number.The 60 patients in the intervention group received an individualized EN with different formula and concentrations according to the clinical status,and supplemented trace elements as occasion required.In the routine group, the patients received EN with standard formula.The energy supply was 83-125 kJ· kg-1·d-1 in both groups.Blood albumin(Alb), pre-albumin(PA), hemoglobin(Hb) and vitamin C(VC) were examined before and after the 21-day nutritional support.The lung infection and gastrointestinal (GI) complications were observed, and the hospital stay and cost were recorded as well.Results: After 21 day''s nutrition support, the serum levels of Alb, PA and VC in the intervention group were not statisticly significant than before (P>0.05), and the serum levels of Alb, PA and VC were significantly higher than those in the routine group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the in the intervention group was lower than that in the routine group (P<0.05), and the length of hospital stay and hospitalization was shorter than that in the routine group (P<0.05).Conclusion: Individualized enteral nutritional support can significantly improve nutritional status, reduce inflammation reactions and GI complications in severe stroke patients, which is worthy of clinical use.
4.Progress in the safety of chimeric antigen receptor T cells therapy
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2021;30(2):65-67
Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) therapy is progressing rapidly, and its safety has been widely concerned. At the 62nd American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting, a series of reports on the mechanism, predictive indicators and treatment strategies of major adverse reactions were carried out. These reports have certain guiding significance for comprehensively improving the safety of CAR-T therapy.

Objective To explore the protection for ischemic myocardium with warm-up phenomenon and KATP channel blocker interventional effect on it. Methods Patients with chronic stable angina who came into the study were divided into three groups according to the presence of diabetes and its treatment ways: 25 patients without diabetes came into a NDM group, 22 patients with diabetes treated with glibenclamide came into a DMG group and 25 patients with diabetes but on diet only came into a DMD group. All the patients underwent sequential bicycle ergnmeter exercise test twice (EX1, EX2)with a time interval of 15 min. Parameters including exercise duration (ED), time for 1 mm ST-segment depression (T-STD), maximum STD (mm) and corresponding heart-rate systolic blood pressure product (RPP) were observed respectively. The parameters obtained during EX2 were compared with those obtained during EX1.Results In the group NDM,ED and T-STD were prolonged [(546. 04±103.78)s vs (617.52±106. 96) s, P < 0.05 and (378.64±92.34)s vs (436.84±91.25)s, P<0.05], STDmax was shortened [(2.06± 0.37) mm vs(1.75±0.41)mm,P<0.01]and RPP was increased[(173.77±34.73) beats±min~(-1)·nun Hg~(-2) vs (199.23±37.07 beats·min~(-1)·mm Hg~(-2), p<0.05]as the parameters during EX2 were compared with those during EX1. In the group DMG, there was no difference in these analysed parameters except that T-STD was prolonged [(328.45±64.66)s vs (363.00±81.48)s, P<0.01]when these of EX2 and EX1 were compared. In the group DMD,all the analysed parameters improved significantly during the second test (EX2) in comparison with the first test (EX1) as the results in the group NDM. Conclusions Exercise test can induce warm-up phenomenon in patients with chronic stable angina poctoris.The KATP channel blocker glibenclamide can block the warm-up phenomenon.

Objective To explore the relationship between expressions of VEGF-C, VEGF-D and metastasis in papillary carcinoma of the thyroid. Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the microvessel density(MVD) and expressions of VEGF-C and VEGF-D protein in 20 samples of nodular goiter and 115 samples with papillary carcinoma of the thyroid. Results The positive rates of VEGF-C and VEGF-D protein in nodular goiter were 15.0% and 20.0% respectively, and those in papillary carcinoma of the thyroid were 87.0% and 72.2%, respectively. The intratumour MVD in nodular goiter and papillary carcinoma of the thyroid was 15.2?6.7 and 21.5?8.5 respectively. The expressions of VEGF-C, VEGF-D protein and MVD in papillary carcinomas of the thyroid were significantly higher than those of nodular goiter. The expressions of VEGF-C and VEGF-D protein were closely related to lymph node metastasis of papillary carcinoma of the thyroid(P
