China Oncology 2009;19(6):443-447
Hedgehog(Hh) pathway plays a key role in a variety of processes, such as embryogenesis, maintenance of tissue homeostasis, tissue repair and carcinogenesis. Recent studies indicate that the aberrant activation of Hh pathway has been linked to multiple types of human cancer. Here, we present an overview of the processing and secretion of Hh pathway and the role of Hh pathway in gastric cancer.

Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2016;23(10):31-34
Objective To observe clinical efficacy of osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures treated by manual reduction with percutaneous vertebroplasty. Methods Totally 82 patients with osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures were randomly divided into treatment group (43 cases) and control group (39 cases). The treatment group received the manual reduction combined with percutaneous vertebral plasty, while the control group only received percutaneous vertebral plasty. Lumbar back pain VAS scores, vertebral anterior height and spine after convex Cobb angle before and after operation in the two groups were compared. Results There was statistical significance among VAS pain score, spine after convex Cobb angle and anterior flange height in the two groups (P<0.05); There was no statistical significance in VAS score in the two groups on the 2nd day. (P>0.05), while there was statistical significance in spine after convex Cobb angle and anterior flange height in the two groups (P<0.05);There was statistical significance among VAS pain score, spine after convex Cobb angle and anterior flange height in the two groups in the 3rd month after operation (P<0.05). Conclusion Manual reduction combined with percutaneous vertebral plasty can improve the lower back pain, restore vertebral body height and correct spine after contex Cobb angle of osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures, which is better than pure percutaneous vertebral plasty.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the influence of miR-148a on cell proliferation of human gastric cancer cell lines MKN45.
METHODSExpression level of miR-148a was detected by qRT-PCR in the carcinoma tissues and the tissues adjacent to carcinoma of 60 patients with gastric cancer. Lentivirus packaging was used to establish MKN45 gastric cancer cell line expressing stable miR-148a as transfection group,and the untransfected MKN45 cell line as the control group. Gastric cancer MKN45 cell proliferation was detected by CCK8 method. The target gene of miR-148a was predicted by targetscan. Expression of target gene was examined by Western blotting.
RESULTExpression of miR-148a in gastric cancer tissues of 54 cases(90.0%, 54/60) decreased, and among them, 37 tissue samples(61.7%, 37/60) decreased by 2 times. mir-148a expression in cancer tissues of patients with lymph node metastasis, vascular invasion and TNM stage III(-IIII( was down-regulated more obviously(P<0.05). From the third day after transfection, the growth of MKN45 cells was significantly inhibited(P<0.01). Gene CDC25B might be the target gene of miR-148a according to the results of targetscan. Western blot showed that CDC25B expression in transfection group was lower as compared to control group.
CONCLUSIONMiR-148a expression is down-regulated in gastric cancer tissues and inhibits gastric cancer cell proliferation. CDC25B may be the target gene of miR-148a that plays a role in tumor suppressor.

10.Application of emotion-focused therapy on social anxiety disorders
Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2022;31(12):1149-1152
Social anxiety disorder is a common anxiety disorder in which a key feature is interpersonal avoidance accompanied by generalized problems with emotion identification and emotion regulation. In response to the gap in these therapeutic priorities in other therapies, emotion-focused therapy has emerged to fill the part of the treatment of emotions with an emphasis on the relational process. The paper reviews the recent studies related with the treatment of social anxiety disorder with emotion-focused therapy. The results suggest that the main points of social anxiety onset in an emotion-focused perspective are traumatic emotional experiences and self-criticism, and that the therapeutic focus of emotion-focused therapy is on dealing with the traumatic emotional scenario behind the anxiety and exposing it to adaptive emotions to be transformed. It also works better in combination with other more mainstream therapies. This suggests that emotion-focused therapy is a promising approach for the clinical treatment of social anxiety disorder and looks forward to the development of a more integrated treatment approach in the clinic.
