[Prevention and treatment of lung cancer by regulating tumor-associated macrophages with traditional Chinese medicine].

Lung cancer is one of the common malignant tumors in the world, and its incidence and mortality is increasing year by year. Interactions between tumor cells and immune cells in the tumor microenvironment(TME) affect tumor proliferation, infiltration, and metastasis. Tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs) are prominent components of TME, and they have dual regulation effects on malignant progression of lung cancer.

IFN-α inhibits HBV transcription and replication by promoting HDAC3-mediated de-2-hydroxyisobutyrylation of histone H4K8 on HBV cccDNA minichromosome in liver.

The epigenetic modification of hepatitis B virus (HBV) covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) plays a crucial role in cccDNA transcription and viral persistence. Interferon-α (IFN-α) is a pivotal agent against HBV cccDNA. However, the mechanism by which IFN-α modulates the epigenetic regulation of cccDNA remains poorly understood.

[A study of making use of computer-aided projection fringe system to measure breast dimension].

Objective: To measure breast basic dimension by using computer-aided projection fringe system.

Methods: A system has been developed for measuring breast basic dimension based on computer-aided projection fringe measurement and programming software. Plastic manikins breast's SN-N (sternal notch to nipple distance), N-ML (nipple to midline distance), N-N (internipple distance), MBW (base width of breast) and N-IMF (nipple to inframammary fold distance) are measured with this system.

[Three-dimensional breast non-contact measurement].

Objective: To develop a system for three-dimensional (3D) non-contact measurement of breast using computer-aided projection fringe measurement (CAPFM).

Methods: A system of 3D non-contact breast measurement was developed based on CAPFM and used for measurement of a plastic model mimicking human breast.

Results: The CAPFM system was capable of non-contact 3D measurement with rapid data collection (within 0.
