Bibliometric analysis on the progress of immunotherapy in renal cell carcinoma from 2003-2022.

The incidence and mortality rates of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have been increasing annually due to obesity and environmental pollution. Although immunotherapy of RCC has been studied for decades, few comprehensive bibliometric analyses exist on the treatment. Therefore, the purpose of this bibliometric analysis was to identify scientific achievements of the global research on RCC immunotherapy from 2003 to 2022 and discuss research trends.

Metformin inhibits melanoma cell metastasis by suppressing the miR-5100/SPINK5/STAT3 axis.

Melanoma is the most lethal skin cancer characterized by its high metastatic potential. It is urgent to find novel therapy strategies to overcome this feature. Metformin has been confirmed to suppress invasion and migration of various types of cancer.

Jasmonoyl-l-isoleucine and allene oxide cyclase-derived jasmonates differently regulate gibberellin metabolism in herbivory-induced inhibition of plant growth.

The trade-off between plant growth and resistance to herbivory is thought to be at least partly mediated by the interactions between jasmonates and gibberellins (GAs). Insect herbivory activates jasmonate biosynthesis and signaling, and plant growth is concomitantly inhibited. Whether or not the herbivory-induced jasmonates suppress the accumulation of GAs and thus reduce plant growth, and which jasmonates are functional in this process, remain unclear.

[Serum levels of Th1/Th2 cytokines in children with non-systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis].

Objective: To investigate the serum levels of Th1/Th2 cytokines in children with non-systemic juvenile onset idiopathic arthritis (non-SOJIA).

Methods: Clinical data of 41 children with non-SOJIA, including 11 cases of polyarthritis, 10 cases of oligoarthritis and 20 cases of enthesitis related JIA (ERA), admitted in Children's Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine during November 2012 and May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Serum levels of Th1/Th2 cytokines including IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α and IFN-γ were measured by flow cytometry in patients with non-SOJIA, and compared with those in patients with SOJIA (SOJIA group, n=85) and healthy children (control group, n=202); their correlations with erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C reactive protein and CRP were analyzed.

Synthesis of retinyl palmitate catalyzed by Candida sp.99-125 lipase immobilized on fiber-like SBA-15 mesoporous material.

Candida sp.99-125 lipase was suitable for transesterification of fats and oils to produce fatty acid methyl ester. The adsorption of Candida sp.
