Outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in Shwachman-Diamond syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the outcomes of Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) in the treatment of Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS). A literature search was performed on PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science. After screening 397 articles, 10 studies were included.

Valerian and valeric acid inhibit growth of breast cancer cells possibly by mediating epigenetic modifications.

Valerian root (Valeriana officinalis) is a popular and widely available herbal supplement used to treat sleeping disorders and insomnia. The herb's ability to ameliorate sleep dysfunction may signify an unexplored anti-tumorigenic effect due to the connection between circadian factors and tumorigenesis. Of particular interest are the structural similarities shared between valeric acid, valerian's active chemical ingredient, and certain histone deacteylase (HDAC) inhibitors, which imply that valerian may play a role in epigenetic gene regulation.

[Effect of Indirubin and Sheng-Xue-Xiao-Ban Capsule (SXXBC) on Promoting Peripheral Platelet in ITP Model Mice].

Objective: To compare the effect of Sheng-Xue-Xiao-Ban Capsule (SXXBC) and indirubin to the peripheral platelets of the Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) model mouse.

Methods: The ITP mouse model was established by the method of passive immunization. SXXBC and indirubin were used for intervention treatment.

[Mechanism of "Scutellaria barbata-Hedyotis diffusa" against breast cancer based on network pharmacology].

To explore the mechanism of Scutellaria barbata-Hedyotis diffusa against breast cancer based on network pharmacological methods. The active components and corresponding target proteins of S. barbata and H.

Meta-analysis of the clinicopathological significance of miRNA-145 in breast cancer.

Low expression of tumor suppressor microRNA (miRNA) and high expression of carcinogenic miRNA promote the occurrence and progression of human cancer. Most studies show that miR-145 is a tumor suppressor miRNA, and is closely related to the clinicopathology of breast cancer. However, the results are still inconsistent.

Effect of Compound Zhebei Granule () combined with chemotherapy on surface markers of leukemia stem cell in patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Objective: To observe the effects of Compound Zhebei Granule (, CZBG) combined with chemotherapy on surface markers of leukemia stem cell (LSC) in the bone marrow of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Methods: Seventy-eight patients with AML received bone marrow aspiration and the percentages of CD34(+) CD123(+) and CD33(+) CD123(+) cells were tested using flow cytometry method. A total of 24 refractory or relapsed AML patients were enrolled and treated with one cycle of standard chemotherapy combined with CZBG.

Aberrant DNA methylation of miR-219 promoter in long-term night shiftworkers.

The idea that shiftwork may be carcinogenic in humans has gained widespread attention since the pioneering work linking shiftwork to breast cancer over two decades ago. However, the biomolecular consequences of long-term shiftwork exposure have not been fully explored. In this study, we performed a genome-wide CpG island methylation assay of microRNA (miRNA) promoters in long-term night shiftworkers and day workers.
