Lymph node metastasis diagnosis of postoperative OSCC patients by analyzing extracellular vesicles in drainage fluid based on microfluidic isolation.

Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is a typical marker in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) indicating poor prognosis. Pathological examination by artificial image acquisition and analysis, as the main diagnostic method for LNM, often takes a week or longer which may cause great anxiety of the patient and also retard timely treatment. However, there are few efficient fast LNM diagnosis methods in clinical applications currently.

[Effect of Gene on Ferroptosis Induced by Sorafenib in K562 Cells].

Objective: To explore the effect of UV radiation resistance-associated gene (UVRAG) on ferroptosis induced by sorafenib in leukemia K562 cells.

Methods: K562 cells were treated with 0, 0.625, 1.

Nanoparticles Targeting Lymph Nodes for Cancer Immunotherapy: Strategies and Influencing Factors.

Immunotherapy has emerged as a potent strategy in cancer treatment, with many approved drugs and modalities in the development stages. Despite its promise, immunotherapy is not without its limitations, including side effects and suboptimal efficacy. Using nanoparticles (NPs) as delivery vehicles to target immunotherapy to lymph nodes (LNs) can improve the efficacy of immunotherapy drugs and reduce side effects in patients.

Nanotheranostics in cancer lymph node metastasis: The long road ahead.

Lymph node metastasis (LNM) significantly impacts the prognosis of cancer patients. Despite significant advancements in diagnostic techniques and treatment modalities, clinical challenges continue to persist in the realm of LNM. These include difficulties in early diagnosis, limited treatment efficacy, and potential side effects and injuries associated with treatment.

[Effect of Silencing on Mitophagy in Leukemia Cells K562].

Objective: To explore the effect of on mitophagy in leukemia cells K562.

Methods: K562 cells were induced with different concentrations of mitophagy inducer carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) for 6, 12 and 24 hours, and the cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay. K562 cells were divided into NC, -siRNA, -siRNA+CCCP, and CCCP group, while Western blot was used to detect the expression of UVRAG protein.

Factors Affecting the Re-Endothelialization of Endothelial Progenitor Cell.

The vascular endothelium, which plays an essential role in maintaining the normal shape and function of blood vessels, is a natural barrier between the circulating blood and the vascular wall tissue. The endothelial damage can cause vascular lesions, such as atherosclerosis and restenosis. After the vascular intima injury, the body starts the endothelial repair (re-endothelialization) to inhibit the neointimal hyperplasia.
