VDAC1-NF-κB/p65-mediated S100A16 contributes to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by regulating oxidative stress and inflammatory response via calmodulin/CaMKK2/AMPK pathway.

Myocardial injury triggers intense inflammatory reactions and oxidative stress responses. S100 calcium-binding protein A16 (S100A16), a multi-functional calcium (Ca)-binding protein, participates in inflammatory responses and contributes to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Nevertheless, the precise mechanism by which S100A16 operates in myocardial I/R injury remains uncertain.

Patient-controlled analgesia with hydromorphone treatment for advanced colon cancer with severe pain in an older adult patient: a case report and literature review.

Background: Unrelieved cancer pain can seriously reduce patients' quality of life. Hydromorphone based patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) is widely used in surgery. In recent years, it has also gained attention in the field of cancer pain.

Effects of oxycodone hydrochloride sustained-release tablets and morphine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets on peripheral blood T cell levels in advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma with moderate to severe cancer pain.

Objective: To investigate the effects of morphine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets and oxycodone hydrochloride sustained-release tablets on T-cell levels in advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma(LUSC) with moderate to severe cancer pain.

Methods: A retrospective study was used, ninety-eight patients who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University for treatment of advanced LUSC with moderate to severe cancer pain between January 2021 and December 2021 were randomized into two groups(n=49 each) using the sealed envelope system. The reference group was treated with morphine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets, while the experimental group received oxycodone hydrochloride sustained-release tablets to compare pain relief rates(PRRs), levels of T cells, pain intensity, et al.

Adverse skin reactions induced by sintilimab in advanced lung squamous carcinoma: a case report and review of the literature.

Background: Sintilimab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI). It can induce immune-related Adverse Events (irAEs). Severe adverse skin reactions are rare, but the mortality rate is high.

Diabetic ketoacidosis induced by nivolumab in invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma of the lung: a case report and review of the literature.

Background: Nivolumab is the first programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD-1) inhibitor approved in China. Compared with chemotherapy, nivolumab has shown advantages of good efficacy and safety in the treatment of a variety of tumors. However, due to its short time of use in China and lack of safety experience, clinical understanding of its adverse reactions has not been sufficiently elucidated.

Network pharmacology analysis of the mechanism of Huisheng oral liquid in the treatment of lung cancer.

Background: To study the active ingredient and possible mechanism of Huisheng oral liquid in the treatment of lung cancer by network pharmacology.

Methods: The active ingredient and drug targets of Huisheng oral liquid were screened using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP) and Traditional Chinese Medicine Integrated Database (TCMID), and lung cancer targets were screened using the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The drug targets of the effective components of Huisheng oral liquid were matched with disease targets and the obtained intersecting targets were imported into the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interaction Gene/Proteins (STRING) database to construct a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network.

Vitexin protects against ischemia/reperfusion-induced brain endothelial permeability.

Brain endothelial permeability plays a crucial role in blood-brain barrier (BBB), but the permeability enhancement in cerebral ischemia reperfusion (I/R). Vitexin has certain neuroprotective effects, but the effect brain endothelial permeability in I/R injury was unknown. In this study, the effects of Vitexin on endothelial permeability and the underlying mechanisms in human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEc) I/R injury model were investigated.
