A kinetic model of multiple phenotypic states for breast cancer cells.

Quantitative modeling of microscopic genes regulatory mechanisms in an individual cell is a crucial step towards understanding various macroscopic physiological phenomena of cell populations. Based on the regulatory mechanisms of genes zeb1 and cdh1 in the growth and development of breast cancer cells, we propose a kinetic model at the level of single cell. By constructing the effective landscape of underlying stationary probability for the genes expressions, it is found that (i) each breast cancer cell has three phenotypic states (i.

Clinical effect of Kudiezi injection on renal function based on propensity score.

To explore the effect of Kudiezi injection on renal function in the real world, in order to provide the basis for the clinical medication safety. Patient aged between 18-80 were selected from 18 large hospitals information system (HIS) databases established by clinical research institute for basic traditional Chinese medicine of China academy of Chinese medical sciences. The patients who were treated with Kudiezi injection (24 225 cases) were defined as the exposed group, whereas those who were not treated with Kudiezi injection (14,191 cases) were defined as the non-exposed group.
