1.TGF? signal pathway and anti TGF? strategies for treatment of liver fibrosis
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 1986;0(05):-
Liver fibrosis is the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins that occurs in most types of chronic liver diseases. Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are major sources of the excess ECM deposited in fibrotic liver. Transforming growth factor ? (TGF-?) is considered to play a generic role in the development of tissue fibrosis, as it stimulates the synthesis and deposition of ECM components. Smad pathways are central mediators of signals from the receptors for transfor- ming TGF-? to the nucleus. However, growing biochemical and developmental evidence supports the notion that non-Smad pathways also participate in TGF-? signalling. TGF-? signalling pathways play an important role in regulating tissue homeostasis and have been implicated implicated in diverse pathological conditions. It is oow our challenge to design ways of blocking the fibrosis-specific actions of TGF-? through downstream signalling pathways and mediators without compromising the other activities of this multifunctional cytokine, which is essential for health.

5.Expression of sirtuin in hepatocellular carcinoma and its clinical significance
Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery 2013;19(10):789-793
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development is closely related to overexpression of tumor promoters or down-regulation of tumor suppressors.The mammalian sirtuin family was found to be a nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide (NAD/NADH)-dependent histone deacetylase (HDAC),which implicated in the regulation of critical biological processes through deacetylation modifying on histone and nonhistone.SIRT1 can regulate metabolism,aging,inflammation and cancer progression.In particular,more and more evidence proves that SIRT1 can act as a tumor promot er in hepatocellular carcinoma through deacetylation on tumor suppressors.On the other hand,SIRT1 can strongly suppress metabolic syndrome-associated liver cancer in the mouse model.This review will discuss the expression of sirtuin family member in liver cancer and its clinical significance.
6.Radiation in head and neck cancers and the parotids' changes
Journal of International Oncology 2012;(12):913-915
During radiation for head and neck cancers,part of parotids are contained in planning target volume(PTV),which lead to parotids receiving radiation as the same as PTV.Radiation for head and neck cancers will influence the parotids.In the period of radiation,many factors will influence parotids,such as age,primary parotid volume,V10-40,weight and mean radiation dose et al.These factors will result in that the parotid volume reduces nearly 50% and moves toward the middle line of the body.As a result,the real dose of the parotid receiving is higher than prescription dose.The excretion function of the parotid will be severely damaged after radiation,which will lead to xerostomia and influence the quality of patients life.
