Objective: To analyze the differentially expressed proteins of the synergy effect of Radix Hedysari polysaccharides (HPS)combined with chemotherapy (Cy) on S180 tumor cells.
Methods: The total proteins extracted from the HPS combined with Cy treated S180 cells in tumor-bearing mice were separated by two dimentional gel electrophoresis (2-DE)and compared with those from Cy treated S180 cells using PDQuest 8.0 software. Mass spectrometry was applied to identify the differentially expressed proteins. Western blot was used to determine the differential expression of one protein.
Results: Twenty-four differentially-expressed proteins in HPS group were discovered. The five differential expressed proteins among twenty-four proteins were later identified by mass spectrometry and Mascot software as heat-shock protein hsp84 (HSP90beta), apolipoprotein A, albumin, heat shock protein beta-1 (HSP27)and unnamed protein product, including one up regulated and four down regulated expressed proteins respectively. Results from Western blot manifested the same trend as from proteomics analysis.
Conclusion: Proteomics technique can be used to discover target proteins associated with the synergy effect of HPS combined with Cy on S180 tumor cells, involving some important proteins related to energy metabolism, oxidative stress and apoptosis induction signal transduction.

Purpose: Our aim was to examine the expression of PAX6 and keratocyte-specific markers in human limbal stromal cells (LSCs) in congenital aniridia (AN) and in healthy corneas, .
Methods: Primary human LSCs were extracted from individuals with aniridia (AN-LSCs) ( = 8) and from healthy corneas (LSCs) ( = 8). The cells were cultured in either normal-glucose serum-containing cell culture medium (NGSC-medium) or low-glucose serum-free cell culture medium (LGSF-medium).

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the (). While gene therapy holds promise as a cure, the cell-type-specific heterogeneity of expression in the lung presents significant challenges. Current CF ferret models closely replicate the human disease phenotype but have limitations in studying functional complementation through cell-type-specific CFTR restoration.

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) binds with its surface receptor to stimulate gene expression and cancer cell proliferation. EGF stimulates cancer cell growth via phosphoinositide 3‑kinase (PI3K) and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD‑L1) pathways. As an integrin αvβ3 antagonist, heteronemin exhibits potent cytotoxic effects against cancer cells.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a type of head and neck cancer (HNC) with a high recurrence rate, which has been reported to be associated with the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs). Tribbles pseudokinase 3 (TRIB3) is involved in intracellular signaling and the aim of the present study was to investigate the role of TRIB3 in the maintenance of CSCs. Analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas database samples demonstrated a positive correlation between TRIB3 expression levels and shorter overall survival rates in patients with HNC.

Human papillomavirus (HPV)‑positive and -negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are often associated with activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway due to mutations or amplifications in , loss of or activation of receptor tyrosine kinases. In HPV‑negative tumors, (encoding p16 protein) inactivation or (encoding Cyclin D1 protein) amplification frequently results in sustained cyclin‑dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 activation. The present study aimed to investigate the efficacy of the CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDKi) palbociclib and ribociclib, and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway inhibitors (PI3Ki) gedatolisib, buparlisib and alpelisib, in suppressing cell viability of HPV‑positive and ‑negative HNSCC cell lines.
