Success rate of current human-derived gastric cancer organoids establishment and influencing factors: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Human-derived gastric cancer organoids (GCOs) are widely used in gastric cancer research; however, the culture success rate is generally low.

Aim: To explore the potential influencing factors, and the literature on successful culture rates of GCOs was reviewed using meta-analysis.

Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE were searched for studies.

Bibliometrics analysis based on the Web of Science: Current trends and perspective of gastric organoid during 2010-2023.

Background: Three-dimensional organoid culture systems have been established as a robust tool for elucidating mechanisms and performing drug efficacy testing. The use of gastric organoid models holds significant promise for advancing personalized medicine research. However, a comprehensive bibliometric review of this bur-geoning field has not yet been published.

Effect of Chaihu Shugan Powder-Contained Serum on Glutamate-Induced Autophagy of Interstitial Cells of Cajal in the Rat Gastric Antrum.

Gastrointestinal (GI) motility disorder is caused by excessive autophagy of the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC). Chaihu Shugan Powder (CSP) is a traditional Chinese medicine with therapeutic benefits in GI motility disorders; however, the underlying mechanism of its therapeutic effect in GI disorders, especially autophagy of ICC, remains unclear. Thus, this study investigated the effects of CSP-contained serum on glutamate-induced autophagy in rat gastric ICC, exploring its underlying mechanism.

Investigation of autophagy and differentiation of myenteric interstitial cells of Cajal in the pathogenesis of gastric motility disorders in rats with functional dyspepsia.

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), especially myenteric interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC-MY), are key to gastrointestinal motility. However, their role in the pathogenesis of functional dyspepsia (FD) is unclear. Therefore, autophagy and differentiation of ICC-MY were investigated to elucidate the pathogenesis of gastric motility disorder in FD.

[Effects of Chaihu Shugan Powder on the Cytoactivity of Rat Interstitial Cells of Cajal and Intracellu- lar Ca²+ Concentration].

Objective To observe effects of Chaihu Shugan Powder (CSP) on the cytoactivity and intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration of rat interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs). Methods CSP containing serum was prepared according to common methods of seropharmacology, which was then divided into three CSP groups (5%,10%, 20% CSP containing serum) , 10% Domperidone containing serum group, and the blank control group. ICCs in gastric antrum were rapidly isolated and extracted to perform routine culture.

[Exploration of the Essence of "Endogenous Turbidity" in Chinese Medicine].

The essence of endogenous turbidity in Chinese medicine (CM) is different from cream, fat, phlegm, retention, damp, toxicity, and stasis. Along with the development of modern scientific technologies and biology, researches on the essence of endogenous turbidity should keep pace with the time. Its material bases should be defined and new connotation endowed at the microscopic level.

Systemin/Jasmonate-mediated systemic defense signaling in tomato.

Wound-inducible proteinase inhibitors (PIs) in tomato plants provide a useful model system to elucidate the signal transduction pathways that regulate systemic defense response. Among the proposed intercellular signals for wound-induced PIs expression are the peptide systemin and the oxylipin-derived phytohormone jasmonic acid (JA). An increasing body of evidence indicates that systemin and JA work in the same signaling pathway to activate the expression of PIs and other defense-related genes.

[Relationship between shen-deficiency syndrome and polymorphism of angiotensin converting enzyme gene in longevous elders in Bama area of Guangxi municipality].

Objective: To explore the relationship between Shen-deficiency syndrome (SDS) and the insert/deficit (I/D) polymorphism types (PMTs) of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene in longevous elders in Bama area of Guangxi municipality.

Methods: The investigation on 27 centenarians (Group A), 56 elders of 90-99 years old (Group B) and 114 of 60-89 years old (Group C) was carried out by questionnaire, and the polymorphism was detected using polymerize chain reaction detection, single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis, and direct sequencing technique. And the study was controlled by 79 naturally died elders within 60-70 years old.

[Preliminary practice on education of integrated Chinese and Western medicine in Western medical universities].

Through the exploration and practice on education of integrated Chinese and Western medicine (ICWM) in Guangxi Medical University, it is elaborated in this paper that to train the compound personnel of ICWM is the demand of society nowadays; to establish the courses of ICWM in Western medical universities has its great advantages, and it is one of the best ways to nurture the top-level personnel in ICWM.

[Effects of jianwei yuyang granule on inflammatory reaction and NF-kappaB expression in rat gastric mucosa of ulcer healing and recurrence].

Objective: To observe the effects of Jianwei Yuyang granule (JWYY) on inflammatory reaction and NF-kappaB expression in rat gastric mucosa of ulcer healing and recurrence.

Method: Gastric ulcer was induced in rat by acetic acid according Okeba's method with some modification and the recurrence model was induced by IL-1beta. Pathohistology of ulcer healing and recurrence was observed.

[Therapeutic effects of the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine on patients with peptic ulcers].

Objective: To explore the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine on patients with peptic ulcers.

Methods: One hundred and twenty patients were randomly divided into 6 groups. Another 10 patients as the control group were confirmed with no peptic ulcers by endoscope, but had digestive tract symptoms.

[Nuclear factor-kappaB mRNA and protein expression in stomach tissue of rats with gastric ulcer recurrence and effect of jianwei yuyang granule on its expression].

Objective: To observe the inflammatory reaction, nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) mRNA and protein expression in stomach tissue of rats with gastric ulcer recurrence and the effect of Jianwei Yuyang granule (JYG) on them.

Methods: Gastric ulcer and its recurrent lesion were successively induced by acetic acid and interliukin1-beta (IL-1beta), and the model rats were divided into the sham operation group, the model group, the omeprazole (correction of omepraxole) group and the JYG group to observe the state of chronic inflammatory cell, neutrophil count, NF-kappaBmRNA and protein expression in stomach tissue.

Results: On the 16th and 92th day after administration, the increase of chronic inflammatory cell, neutrophil, NF-kappaBmRNA and protein expression in the model group was more significant than those in the sham operated group (P < 0.
