Hippo pathway is a signaling network involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis, whereas Yes-asso-ciated protein (YAP) is the major effector of the pathway. YAP is a candidate oncogene, and dysregulation of the Hippo-YAP pathway is closely related to the occurrence and progression of various tumors. Therefore, Hippo-YAP may provide a novel therapeutic target for cancer treatment. Some drugs or compounds that regulate the Hippo-YAP pathway activity, such as verteporfin, can inhibit the occur-rence or growth of tumors. This review mainly focuses on the progress of studies on the use of Hippo-YAP signaling pathway as a tar-get of cancer treatment strategies.

Objective To observe and analyze curative efficacy of Desloratadine Citrate Disodium in combination with endoscopic sinus surgery and its effects on serum TIgE, ECP and inlfammatory factors in patients with chronic sinusitis.Methods 90 patients with chronic sinusitis who received therapy in our hospital from January 2015 to June 2016 were collected as research objects to be randomly divided into the control group and the observation group equally. The control group was given endoscopic sinus surgery, and the observation group was given Desloratadine Citrate Disodium in combination with endoscopic sinus surgery. Then, visual analogue scale (VAS) was applied to assess the severity of subjective symptoms of the disease. Three months after the surgery, the curative efifcacy, scores of visual analogue scale (VAS) relfecting clinical symptoms, levels of serum TIgE, ECP and inlfammatory factors were compared between the two groups.Results All patients undergone successful surgery. The observation group had a total therapeutic efifciency ratio of 95.6%, which was signiifcantly higher than that of 82.2% in the control group (P < 0.05). In comparison with the control group, the observation group had lower VAS scores of nasal discharge, nasal obstruction, cheek pain, headache, hyposmia [(1.84 ± 0.89) vs (3.12 ± 1.03) points, (1.87 ± 0.81) vs (2.55 ± 1.14) points, (1.24 ± 0.86) vs (1.88 ± 0.79) points, (1.15 ± 0.54) vs (1.97 ± 0.83) points, (1.84 ± 0.73) vs (2.18 ± 0.84) points], lower levels of serum TIgE, ECP [(58.62 ± 7.36) vs (64.39 ± 7.18) kU/L, (4.25 ± 0.84) vs (5.01 ± 1.07) ng/L)] and inflammatory factors of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 [(1.27 ± 0.46) vs (2.62 ± 0.53) ng/ml, (5.13 ± 1.24) vs (9.54 ± 2.23) pg/ml, (282.63 ± 32.42) vs (315.84 ± 35.89) ng/L)] with statistical differences (allP < 0.05).Conclusion Desloratadine Citrate Disodium in combination with endoscopic sinus surgery is effective for chronic sinusitis, which can signiifcantly relieve clinical symptoms, reduce levels of serum TIgE, ECP and alleviate inlfammatory reaction.

The estrogen receptor (ER) coregulators regulate the transcriptional activities of ER,and then affect the transcription and translation of target genes mediated by ER.ER coregulators not only plays an important role in the initiation,progression and metastasis of breast cancer,but also involves in the response to endocrine therapy of breast cancer via the genomic and nongenomic function.

Objective To investigate the effects of Qi-reinforcing and blood-activating prescription,Qidan Tongmai Tablet(QDTMT) on the IL-10 in the rat model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.Methods A model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury was reproduced by ligation of left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery.Thirty-six male SD rats were randomly divided into six groups(n=6):sham operation group,model group,Diltiazem Hydrochloride group,QDTMT high-dose group,QDTMT medium-dose group and QDTMT low-dose group.After the left anterior descending branch of coronary artery was occluded for 30 minutes followed by reperfusion for 2 hours,the whole blood was collected via right common carotid artery and the serum level of IL-10 was measured by ELISA.At the same time,HE staining was performed to detect the pathological change in myocardium,and the ultrastructural alterations of rats were observed with transmission electron microscope.Results The contents of IL-10 in serum were increased in QDTMT groups.Electron microscopic examination showed that pathologic changes of myocardiocytes in QDTMT groups were milder than those of the model group.The effects in QDTMT high-dose group were better than that in the low-dose group,and has insignificant difference with Diltiazem Hydrochloride group.Conclusion Qi-reinforcing and blood-activating prescription inhibits the inflammatory reaction by facilitating the expression of endogenous IL-10 and improving myocardial ultrastructural changes after myocardial ischemia/reperfusion in rats.These actions may contribute to its protective effect on the ischemic myocardial cells.

【Objective】To explore the relationship of precancerous lesions of uterine cervix with human papillomavirus(HPV)DNA content in high risk women detected by the method of hybrid capture Ⅱ(HC2).【Methods】From September of 2003 to January of 2005,433 outpatients were collected in gynecology department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of TCM.Cervical HPV-DNA contents were detected by HC2.For those with HPV-DNA positive,Thinprep cytologic test(TCT)was done and further examination under colposcope such as multiple cervical biopsy and endocervical scraping smear was performed if TCT showed abnormalities of cytology.【Results】There were 128 patients with HPV-DNA positive,and 98(76.56%)with abnormal cytologic changes such as atypical squamous cell of undetermined significance(ASCUS),low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion(LSIL)and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion(HSIL),which was more than those(23.44%)with normal cervical cells.For the patients with abnormalities of cytology,HPV-DNA content was higher than those with normal cervical cells(P

Fixed effect model analysis showed that the summary RR was 1.43 (95%CI, 1.36 to 1.90), indicating a higher risk of future coronary heart disease in individuals with periodontal disease compared with those without. Conclusion This result suggests that periodontal disease is significantly related with coronary heart disease, they may be a risk indicator for each other. However, we should strengthen the prevention and cure of PD and control the probability of CHD.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the regularities of clinical application of hand acupuncture therapy to the treatment of diseases of different departments by using data mining technique, so as to provide a reference for clinical practice. METHODS: We searched papers, academic dissertations and case reports (published in journals from Jan 1, 1953 to December 31, 2017) from databases of China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI), VIP, and Wanfang, and also searched papers from medical books about hand acupuncture treatment of different diseases/illness by using keywords of "hand acupuncture" and "hand acupoints"， followed by constructing a database after sorting, screening, recording, extracting, and statistical analysis by using a computer. Then, the data mining was conducted for summarizing the characteristics and rules of the hand acupuncture therapy in clinical application. RESULTS: The hand acupuncture therapy in Chinese medical journals was found to be applied to various clinical departments, with the frequency from high to low successively being 16 types of diseases (37.21%) in the surgery, 15 diseases (34.88%) in the internal medicine, 2 diseases (4.65%) in the pediatrics, 8 diseases (18.60%) in the ophthalmology-otorhinolaryngology, 1 disease (2.33%) in the genecology and 1 disease (2.33%) in the dermatology. In the treatment of diseases, the cure plus markedly effective rate of hand acupuncture was found to be highest for diseases of the pediatrics (90.65%), and was 88.45% surgery, 78.06% internal medicine, 89.96% ophthalmology-otorhinolaryngology, 60.61% gynecology, and 67.73% dermatology, respectively. When hand acupuncture used, the acupoints of the hand region on both sides, healthy side and affected side were often selected, and movement exercise was often used in combination, particularly for problems of the surgery. In the collected medical records and 6 acupuncture books, the hand acupuncture was employed for treatment of 34 and 123 kinds of diseases or problems, respectively, with the tissue injury, lumbocrural pain being most frequently seen in the records, and abdominal pain, lumbocrural, chest obstruction, etc. most frequently seen in the acupuncture books. CONCLUSION: Hand acupuncture therapy is widely used in the treatment of many clinical problems of different departments, such as tissue injury, leg pain, etc. of the surgery; abdominal pain, asthma, etc. of the internal medicine; infantile enuresis, diarrhea, etc. of the pediatrics. Acupoints of the hand on the unilateral side are frequently employed and may have a better therapeutic effect.
