In order to understand nurses’ willingness to participate in humanistic nursing training and its influencing factors, and provide reference for managers to understand the current situation and improve nurses’ enthusiasm for humanistic nursing training. The convenience sampling method was used to investigate 23 707 nurses in 28 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government) through a self-designed questionnaire distributed on the Internet. The results showed that 98.1% of nurses thought that participating in humanistic nursing related training was helpful to clinical work, but only 88.6% of the respondents were willing to participate in humanistic nursing training. Thirty factors were analyzed from four aspects of basic characteristics of individuals, cognitive relevant experience and organizational atmosphere. Fifteen factors had significant significance in binary Logistic regression analysis (P<0.05). Among them, the factors that had a positive impact on training willingness were: marriage, education, professional title, post establishment, agree with humanistic care is the basic duty of a nurse praised, experience of being praised at work, family support, rapport with patients, passion of colleagues to participate in training, sustained high-quality care demonstration activities, join the humanistic care related organization, hospital reimbursement of training expenses (OR value of 6.559~1.113, P<0.001). The OR value of humanistic nursing as a nurse’s responsibility was 6.559 and the 95%CI was 5.585~7.702. The factors that hindered nurses from participating in training were: work occupied most of time and energy, think humanistic nursing is abstract and difficult to understand, think the mastered humanistic knowledge and skills meet the needs of work (OR value of 0.657~0.722, P<0.001). Through the analysis, it is considered that nurses have a extremely consistent high recognition of the significance of humanistic nursing training, but their willingness to receive training is affected by many factors such as individual experience, cognitive attitude and organizational atmosphere. In order to realize nurses’ high recognition of humanistic nursing training to high enthusiasm of behavior, the aspects of individual cognition and organizational atmosphere must be discussed.

Primary liver cancer is one of the most common cancer worldwide. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in particular, is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the world. The Hippo signaling pathway has emerged as a major oncosuppressive pathway that plays critical roles inhibiting hepatocyte proliferation, survival, and HCC formation. A key component of the Hippo pathway is the inhibition of yes-associated protein (YAP)/transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) transcription factors by the Hippo kinase cascade. Aberrant activation of YAP or TAZ has been found in several human cancers including HCC. It is also well established that YAP/TAZ activation in hepatocytes causes HCC in mouse models, indicating that YAP/TAZ are potential therapeutic targets for human liver cancer. In this review, we summarize the recent findings regarding the multifarious roles of Hippo/YAP/TAZ in HCC development, and focus on their cell autonomous roles in controlling hepatocyte proliferation, differentiation, survival and metabolism as well as their non-cell autonomous in shaping the tumor microenvironment.

Objective To investigate the effects of salinomycin on the cell proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of MCF-7 mammosphere (MCF-7 MS). Methods Breast cancer MCF-7 cells were cultured in suspension in serum-free medium to obtain MCF-7 MS. The cell viability of MCF-7 MS cells treated with serial concentrations of 0, 10, 30, 100, 300, 1 000, 3 000 and 10 000 nmol/L of salinomycin for 24 hours were detected by CCK-8 assay. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated. Western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression levels of E-cadherin and Snail in MCF-7 MS cells treated with 30 nmol/L and 60 nmol/L salinomycin. The same capacity of DMSO was added to MCF-7 MS as control group. The xenograft tumors from MCF-7 MS transplant mice were divided into control group (the same capacity of normal saline) and salinomycin group (5 mg/kg salinomycin), then the expressions of E-cadherin and Snail were dectected by immunohistochemical staining. Results With the increased concentration of salinomycin, the cell survival rate of MCF-7 MS cells decreased (P<0.05). The IC50 after 24 h-treatment was 989 nmol/L. Both 30 and 60 nmol/L of salinomycin increased the expression of E-cadherin and decreased the expression of Snail compared with control group. In addition, 60 nmol/L treatment group showed more significant effect (P<0.05). In xenograft tumors from MCF-7 MS transplant mice, the expression of Snail decreased, and E-cadherin increased in salinomycin treatment group compared with control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Salinomycin can inhibit the cell proliferation and EMT in MCF-7 MS cells, which is a potential drug to target cancer stem cells.

BACKGROUND:Mouse pluripotent stem cel s are induced to differentiate into insulin-secreting cel s that can effectively improve blood glucose levels in diabetic mice. OBJECTIVE:To detect mRNA and protein levels of insulin-like cel clusters from induced pluripotent stem cel s and to investigate the function of insulin-secreting cel s in vitro and in vivo. METHODS:Mouse induced pluripotent stem cel s cultured in vitro were induced to differentiate into insulin-secreting cel s using combined inducers through three stages. The morphology of endodermal cel s, islet-derived progenitor cel s and mature islet cel s in each stage was observed and relative gene expression levels were detected by PCR. Mature insulin-like cel clusters underwent dithizone staining and functions of insulin released in vitro were observed by ELISA assay. Final y, the insulin-secreting cel s were transplanted into the subrenal capsule of diabetic mice, and then blood glucose levels were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The mature spherical insulin-like cel clusters were successful y obtained in vitro, which were in iron red by dithizone staining, and expression of insulin mRNA was determined by PCR. The insulin-like cel clusters could secrete insulin in response to various blood glucose levels by ELISA assay. In addition, after the cel s clusters were transplanted into the subrenal capsule of mice with type 1 diabetes, the blood glucose levels were marbedly improved.
