Downregulation of autophagy is associated with poor clinical outcome after immunochemotherapy in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

This study aimed to determine the expression levels of the autophagy markers Beclin-1 and p62 in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and explore the association between autophagy and disease prognosis. The expression of Beclin-1 and p62 was investigated in patients with DLBCL and patients with reactive lymphoproliferative disease (RLD) using immunohistochemistry. The association between the clinical characteristics of patients with DLBCL and autophagy status was further analyzed.

[Overview of systematic reviews on Shenmai Injection in prevention and treatment of diseases].

To summarize and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Shenmai Injection in the treatment of viral myocarditis, shock, pulmonary heart disease, coronary heart disease, neutropenia and tumor chemotherapy, so as to provide supportive evidences for clinical rational use of Shenmai Injection. By searching literatures about studies on the systematic reviews on Shenmai Injection in treatment of viral myocarditis, shock, pulmonary heart disease, coronary heart disease, neutropenia and tumor chemotherapy from the main Chinese and English databases. Primary efficacy and safety outcome measures were selected for comparative analysis and summary, and the appraisal tool of AMSTAR 2 was used to evaluate the included studies.

Identification of risk factors of developing pressure injuries among immobile patient, and a risk prediction model establishment: A protocol for systematic review.

Backgroud: Pressure injuries (PIs) bring a considerable physical and mental burden on immobile patients, and have put families and government under tremendous pressure to cover the cost of treatment. Therefore, this protocol proposes to identify risk factors of developing PIs in immobile patients from systematic reviews (SRs) and clinical practice guidelines (CPGs), in order to establish a risk prediction model for developing PIs and identify individual risk factors that can be modified to aid prevention.

Methods: Electronic databases and specific databases for CPGs and SRs will be searched.

[Effects of Decitabine Combined with Bortezomib on the Proliferation of Mantle Cell Lymphoma Cell Lines and Its Underling Mechanisms].

Objective: To investigate the effects of decitabine combined with bortezomib on the proliferation of mantle cell lymphoma cell lines (Jeko-1 and Grante519) in vitro and explore the underlying mechanisms.

Methods: Jeko-1 and Grante519 cells were treated with different concentrations of decitabine and/or bortezomib alone and their combination.The cell proliferation was determined by CCK-8 assay.

Relative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm: a case report and literature review.

Objective: To report the long-term survival of a patient with maternal plasmacytoid dendritic cell tumor (BPDCN) treated by allo-HSCT.

Methods: The patient was diagnosed by skin infiltration, bone marrow involvement, skin biopsy and bone marrow cytology. CD4, CD56, and CR123 were expressed in tumor cells.

Efficacy and safety of recombinant human adenovirus p53 combined with chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human adenovirus p53 (rAd-p53) combined with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in the treatment of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). A total of 162 recurrent NPC patients were selected and divided randomly into the rAd-p53+CRT, CRT, and rAd-p53 groups. An electrochemical luminescence immune analyzer was used to detect serum levels of tumor markers (carcinoembryonic antigen, cancer antigen 199, and cancer antigen 153).

[Recent progress of potential effects and mechanisms of chlorogenic acid and its intestinal metabolites on central nervous system diseases].

Chlorogenic acid displays several important roles in the therapeutic properties of many herbs, such as antioxidant activity, antibacterial, antiviral, scavenging free radicals and exciting central nervous system. Only about one-third of chlorogenic acid was absorbed in its prototype, therefore, its gut metabolites play a more important role in the therapeutic properties of chlorogenic acid. It is necessary to consider not only the bioactivities of chlorogenic acid but also its gut metabolites.

Reduced mir-29b-3p expression up-regulate CDK6 and contributes to IgA nephropathy.

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerulonephritis and the etiology of which is complex and multiple, and the pathological damage of IgAN is diversified. MicroRNA is a kind of gene expression suppressor and recently, researchers have found that microRNAs may play an important role in the pathogenesis of IgAN. Herein, we found that miR-29b-3p not miR-29a or miR-29c was significantly down regulated in IgAN patients' renal tissues.

siRNA-mediated inhibition of hTERC enhances radiosensitivity of cervical cancer.

Background: To investigate the influence of telomerase activity, apoptosis, radiosensitivity of cervical cancer after siRNA-mediated knockdown of telomerase RNA and evaluate in vivo growth with gene interference.

Methods: We studied siRNA-targeting-telomerase RNA transfection into the Hela cell line. Expression of hTERC mRNA was detected by RT-PCR and telomerase activity was measured by the TRAP assay.

[Erlotnib in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer failed to previous chemotherapy].

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and side effect of erlotnib for refractory patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) failed to previous chemotherapy.

Methods: Twelve patients with chemo-refractory NSCLC were enrolled into this study. Erlotnib was administered at a dose of 150 mg orally once a day for a month.
