1.Metastatic mechanisms of breast cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2015;42(2):141-143
Breast neoplasm shows high rate of incidence and mortality among females.Although thereare a variety of treatments for breast neoplasm,breast neoplasm metastasis is still an intractable medical problem.At present,the related mechanisms of breast neoplasm metastasis are as follows:epithelial-mesenchymal transition,dissolution of extracellular matrix,circulating tumor cells or disseminated tumor cells,tumor vessels and tumor microenvironment.Making clear of the related mechanisms of breast neoplasm metastasis has certain guiding significance for the prediction and treatmence of breast neoplasm metastasis.
2.Effect of hypoxia on the biological characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(40):-
Mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) have became the hot spot in cell tissue engineering,cell replacement therapy,gene therapy and transplant research fields. Recent studies have shown that changes in oxygen concentrations affect many biological characteristics of MSCs. Under different oxygen concentrations,MSCs have different proliferation,differentiation,migration and chemotoxis abilities. Hypoxia is a kind of common pathophysiological status,which can promote the proliferation,apoptosis,migration and chemotoxis abilities of MSCs,while hypoxia impacts the differentiation ability depending on different cell types. The mechanism of these response might be involved in hypoxia-inducible factor-1(HIF-1) ,chemokines and their receptors,and matrix metalproteinases. Hypoxia can activate HIF-1 signaling pathway,which upgrades the expression of stromal-derived factor-1(SDF-1) ,and forms microenvironments which stem cells are adapted to and grow in. SDF-1 increases the adhesion,migration and homing of circulating CXCR4-positive progenitor cells to ischemic tissue,and promotes degradation of extracellular matrix,then enhances the migration ability of MSCs by modulating the expression of matrix metalloproteinase and its protein as well.
3.Paradoxical role of Kupffer cells on ischemia/reperfusion injury in liver transplantation
International Journal of Surgery 2009;36(2):94-97
Kupffer cells, the resident macrophages of the liver, play an important role in ischemia/reperfusion(L/R)injury in liver transplantation. 1schemic liver is reperfused through portal vein, and then Kupffer cells are activated. The liver is damaged by the released reactive oxygen species, inflammatory mediators and cytokines. On the other hand, upregulation of HO-1, induced by the activated kupffer cells, exerts a cytoprotective function for the IYR injury in liver transplantation models. Thus, Kupffer cells play the dual role on L/R injury in liver transplantation.

5.Application of MR-guided radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer
Chinese Journal of Radiation Oncology 2021;30(2):204-207
Radiotherapy is a vital treatment method for pancreatic cancer. However, the therapeutic effect of radiotherapy is significantly limited by the influence of pancreatic motion. More efficient radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer depends upon the improvement of motion management and high-quality image guidance. The emerging MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) can perform functional imaging with high soft tissue resolution and no additional radiation. Multiple researches have demonstrated that MRgRT has significant advantages in terms of precise delineation of target area and organ at risk, motion management and adaptive radiotherapy, which assists radiotherapy to play a better role in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. In this paper, the application of MRgRT in pancreatic cancer was reviewed and prospected.

lschemic postconditioning(IPo)is a way that after long ischemia on liver graft,animals are given one or several brief reperfusion-ischemia before persistent reperfusion to improve the hepatic tolerance and relieve the ischemie reperfusion injury.It has been proved an effective and controlled method to attenuate the ischemic reperfusion injury.Protective mechanism of ischemic postconditioning on hepatic graft is related with protecting sinus hepaticus endotheliocyte and hepatic microcirculation,relieving hepatic cells injury and inflammatory reaction induced by oxygen free radicals,relieving calcium ovedoad in hepatic cells and mitochondria,regulating apoptosis genes,transforming ion channels condition in mitochondria.This article will makes a brief review on protective mechanism ofhepatic ischemic posteanditioning.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of living relative donor kidney transplantation.Methods A retrospective analysis on 19 cases of living relative donor kidney transplantation from February 2002 to May 2006 was carried out.Results No blood transfusion was needed and no serious postoperative complications occurred in donors.The 19 donors were discharged from hospital at 7~10 days postoperatively.Follow-up examinations for 1~51 months(mean,28 months)in the 19 donors revealed normal liver and renal functions.Among the 19 recipients,follow-up examinations for 1~51 months(mean,28 months)showed that the renal functions recovered in 3~5 postoperative days in 16 recipients and within 3 weeks after transplantation in 3.Acute rejection occurred in 2 recipients postoperatively,and was reversed by steroid pulse therapy in 1 recipient and by ALG treatment for 10 days in 1 recipient,in whom the hormone pulse therapy was invalid.The hormone treatment was needed for only 3 weeks in a renal transplantation between monozygotic twins,without using other immunosuppressors,and no acute rejection occurred.Two patients with an uneventful recovery developed an acute rejection because of voluntary decrement and even stopping of immunosuppressor after 6 months,and then was treated with hormone pulse treatment until a reversion.The 1-year survival rate for patient/kidney was 100%.Conclusions Living relative donor renal transplantation is safe and feasible,offering a high survival rate for patient/kidney.
