Metastasis is a leading cause of mortality in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Histone deacetylases have emerged as promising targets for anti-tumor drugs, with histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) being an active area of research. However, the precise mechanisms by which HDACi inhibits lung cancer metastasis remain incompletely understood.

Background: The patients with tuberculosis-destroyed lungs often have heavy adhesion in the affected side of the pleural cavity and abundant collateral circulation, which bring about considerable challenges to surgical treatment. Some patients with tuberculosis-destroyed lungs will have hemoptysis symptoms. In clinical work, we found that patients with hemoptysis before surgery due to hemoptysis through regional artery occlusion treatment often have less bleeding during surgery, and it is relatively easy to stop bleeding during surgery, and the operation time is short.

Background: Cardiac ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury is associated with overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Low frequency pulse magnetic fields (LFMFs) have been reported to decrease ROS generation in endothelial cells. Whether LFMFs could assert protective effects on myocardial from I/R injury via ROS regulation remains unclear.
