Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Xuewei Yan"
- Xuewei Yan's research primarily focuses on the therapeutic effects of traditional Chinese medicine and natural products in enhancing immune responses against cancer, particularly in improving the efficacy of natural killer (NK) cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity.
- Recent studies by Yan have identified mechanisms by which compounds like Rocaglamide and Tanshinone IIA increase NK cell infiltration and their cytotoxic effectiveness against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, showcasing the potential of these natural products in cancer immunotherapy.
- Additionally, Yan's work explores the biochemical pathways and molecular interactions involved in the modulation of immune responses, such as the regulation of glycolysis in myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and the activation of key signaling pathways that promote NK cell activity.
