Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2023;36(5):545-550+558
Objective To investigate the expression of C-C chemokine ligand 5(CCL5) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC),and explore the effect of CCL5 on the biological characteristics of laryngeal carcinoma cells.Methods Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA) database was used to investigate the expression of CCL5 in HNSCC.The laryngeal carcinoma cells TU177 were transfected with siRNA(siRNA group),and the control(NC) group was set up.The cell proliferation,migration,cycle and apoptosis of each group were detected by CCK8 assay,cell scratch test and flow cytometry respectively.RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the knock-down efficiency of CCL5 and the mRNA transcription and protein expression of multidrug resistance protein 2(MRP2) and bcl-2-associated x protein(Bax).Results The expression of CCL5 in HNSCC was higher than that in normal tissues(P <0.05).Compared with NC group,siRNA showed higher knock-down efficiency(t=12.898 and 22.656 respectively,each P <0.01);siRNA interference with CCL5 inhibited the proliferation and migration of laryngeal carcinoma cells,and promoted the late apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells and the expression of apoptosis protein Bax(t=2.600~11.667,each P <0.05).Conclusion CCL5 was highly expressed in HNSCC,while siRNA interference with CCL5 inhibited the proliferation,migration and promoted apoptosis of laryngeal carcinoma cells TU177 by up-regulating the expression of Bax,which laid a foundation of the possibility of CCL5 as a new target for the treatment of laryngeal carcinoma.

5.Dendritic cells and tumor immunotherapy
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(10):755-758
In vivo,dendritic cells(DCs)are the most powerful antigen-presenting cells (APCs).DCs based neoplasm immunotherapy has recently become the focus of research.DCs can be used not only as separate cell vaccine to mediate anti-tumor immunity,but can also be combined with cytokines,immune cells,and other methods in tumor immunotherapy. In animal models and clinical trials,DC-based immunotherapy as well as other tumor immunotherapy strategies have gained more significant progress.

Chinese Mental Health Journal 2010;24(3):236-240
Objective: To build the relationship model of job burnout, insecurity psychology, and insecurity behavior for miners. Methods: The valid random samples included 1229 miners from national and private coal mines, who were investigated with the revised Job-Burnout Inventory for Miners, Insecurity Psychology Inventory, and Insecurity Behavior Inventory. The data was analyzed through SPSS15.0 and AMOS7.0. Results: The three dimensions of job burnout had significant direct effect on insecurity behavior [β =0.008, 0.047, 0.019) .The three dimensions of job burnout had significant direct effect on psychological paralysis (β =0.031, 0.203, 0.374) and helplessness on security (β =0.206, 0.374, 0.472) . Emotional exhaustion and disengagement from work had significant effect on temporary psychology (β =0. 192, 0.411) and antagonistic psychology (β =0.079, 0.596) . Four dimensions of insecurity psychology had significant effect on insecurity behavior (β = 0.092, 0.023, 0.093, 0.097) and it was a mediator in the model. Conclusion: Miners'job burnout have significant direct effects on insecurity behavior, but also have indirect effects through the insecurity psychology mediator.
