1.Research progress of p53 protein in the development mechanism of triple negative breast cancer
Journal of Chinese Physician 2023;25(2):310-313
Tumor suppressor gene p53 plays an important role in regulating cell cycle, controlling apoptosis and repairing damaged DNA. Mutation of this gene is closely related to the occurrence, development and drug resistance of various tumors. The mutant p53 protein is closely related to the growth and metastasis of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) with higher malignancy and higher risk of metastasis. This paper expounds the mechanism of p53 protein participating in the occurrence, development and metastasis of TNBC, introduces the effect of interfering with mouse dual-microbody gene 2 (MDM2), activated T cell nuclear factor 1 (NFAT1) and other proteins on p53, as well as small molecular targeted drugs closely related to p53 protein, and provides a new direction and theoretical basis for targeted treatment of TNBC.

By examining the records related to the Fengfu (GV 16) acupoint in BIAN Que Heart Book (《扁鹊心书》) compiled by the Song Dynasty physician DOU Cai, this study analyzed various aspects, including the differentiation of conditions treated with Fengfu (GV 16) acupoint, the theoretical foundation for selection of Fengfu (GV 16) acupoint, the application of needling manipulation, and the sensation of obtaining qi during acupuncture. The findings suggest that DOU Cai's approach to utilizing Fengfu (GV 16) acupoint differs from traditional methods, particularly emphasizing the effectiveness of achieving a sensation of heat and numbness. His unique techniques include transverse insertion at Fengfu (GV 16) acupoint and penetrated insertion to Fengchi (GB 20) and Yifeng (TE 17) acupoints. The records of Fengfu (GV 16) acupoint in BIAN Que Heart Book provide a valuable reference for its modern clinical application and further development.
