Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Xiao-Mei Shen"
- Xiao-Mei Shen's research focuses on immunology and cancer treatment, particularly involving the role of mesenchymal stem cells, cytokine secretion, and novel therapeutic agents in hematological malignancies and solid tumors.
- Findings indicate that human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) modulate cytokine secretion in dendritic cell-activated killer cells, suggesting potential for immunoregulation therapies. Additionally, syncytin expression was found in various leukemia and lymphoma cell lines, highlighting its potential role in these malignancies.
- Shen has also explored advanced therapeutic strategies, including the combination of rituximab with high-dose chemotherapy for aggressive B-cell lymphoma, and the application of cryopreservation techniques to protect platelets, indicating a breadth of investigational approaches in cancer and cellular therapies.
