1.Cell cycle and tumor translational medicine
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(1):1-7
Dysregulated cell cycle-mediated cell transformation and uncontrolled cell growth are some of the fundamental biolog-ical features of malignant tumors. Thus, understanding the mechanism(s) involved in the cell cycle will facilitate the discovery of the na-ture of tumor initiation and progression as well as the molecular mechanism of tumor malignancy. Consequently, biomarkers and drug targets for early diagnosis and treatment would be obtained. This study was designed to analyze in detail the key regulators of cell cycle and their importance in carcinogenesis and clinical prevention, diagnosis and treatment, and anti-cancer drug discovery. The biological impact of the dysregulated cell cycle on tumor occurrence and malignancy development is systematically described. The theoretical and practical significance of the cell cycle regulation in tumor diagnosis and therapy are also provided.

BACKGROUND: There are some adverse reactions when bone morphogenetic protein-2 is applied independently in clinic; therefore, it is urgent to develop an ideal carrier material to reduce the incidence of adverse reactions induced by bone morphogenetic protein-2. OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively understand the performance of different kinds of bone morphogenetic protein-2 carrier materials, and to summarize their research progress in the field of spinal fusion. METHODS:The literatures about bone morphogenetic protein-2 scaffolds in spinal fusion were retrieved by the first author from PubMed and Wanfang datebase durings July 1, 1995 to July 1, 2015 with the key words of“tissue engineering, bone morphogenetic protein-2, spinal fusion, scaffold” in English and Chinese, respectively. Repetitive studies were excluded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Bone morphogenetic protein-2 carrier materials mainly include four categories: natural biological materials, synthetic organic materials, synthetic inorganic materials and composite materials, each of which has several representative scaffold materials. Each category has their own shortcomings when applied in animal spinal fusion, for instance, the mechanical properties of natural biological materials are generaly poor; synthetic organic materials may cause inflammatory reactions; the mechanical strength of synthetic inorganic materials is poor and the production process of composite materials is relatively complicated. Therefore, the selection of bone morphogenetic protein-2 carrier materials stil needs further experimental study.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of consciousness-restoring needling combined with comprehensive rehabilitation training on motor function and the activities of daily living of poststroke patients with hemiplegia. Methods Sixty qualified patients were evenly randomized into observation group and control group. All of the patients were given conventional medicine treatment and conventional rehabilitation training, and the treatment group was given consciousness-restoring needling additionally. The therapeutic effects were compared at the end of first session of treatment for 4 weeks and 12 weeks after the first session of treatment. The Fugl-Meyer motor assessment scale (FMA), modified Barthel Index (MBI) and Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale ( SS-QQL) were taken as the main evaluation indexes. Results The differences of FMA, MBI and SS-QOL scores were insignificant between the two groups before treatment ( P>0.05). At the end of treatment for 4 weeks, FMA, MBI and SS-QOL scores were increased in the two groups (P<0.05), and the increase was more obvious in the observation group (P<0.05). The results of follow-up till the 12th week showed that FMA, MBI and SS-QOL scores were still higher than the baseline level ( P<0.05). Conclusion Consciousness-restoring needling combined with comprehensive rehabilitation training has better effect on improving motor function and the activities of daily living of poststroke hemiplegia patients than comprehensive rehabilitation training alone.
