Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Xuan-Zi Sun"
- Xuan-Zi Sun's recent research primarily focuses on the anti-cancer properties of natural compounds, particularly examining the effects of the triterpenoid Pristimerin on human esophageal cancer cells, highlighting its mechanism involving ER stress and the AKT/GSK3β pathway through ROS production.
- In addition to cancer research, Sun has explored the prognostic implications of marital status on patient outcomes in Siewert Type II adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction, revealing that marital status significantly influences cardiovascular mortality but not cancer mortality.
- The studies reflect a dual focus on both the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer therapies and the socio-demographic factors impacting cancer prognosis, suggesting a comprehensive approach to understanding cancer outcomes.
