Schisanhenol Inhibits the Proliferation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells by Targeting Programmed Cell Death-ligand 1 via the STAT3 Pathways.
Anticancer Agents Med Chem
January 2025
Department of Immunology, School of Basic Medicine, Beihua University. No. 3999, East Binjiang Road, Jilin, China.
Background: Programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is overexpressed in tumor cells, which promotes tumor cell survival and cell proliferation and causes tumor cells to escape T-cell killing. Schisanhenol, a biphenyl cyclooctene lignin-like compound, was extracted and isolated from the plant named Schisandra rubriflora (Franch.).

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a tropical disease that can cause chronic lesions and leave life-long scars, leading to social stigmatization and psychological disorders. Using growth factors and immunomodulatory agents that could accelerate wound healing and reduce the scar is highly demanded. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays an essential role in wound healing.

Hum Mol Genet
January 2025
Departments of Urology, Affiliated Hospital of Chifeng University, No. 42 Wangfu Street, 024000, Chifeng, China.
Objectives: In recent years, the incidence and mortality rates of prostate cancer (PCa) have still not been significantly reduced and the mechanisms of tumor onset and progression are still not fully understood. The pathogenic mechanisms and upstream regulation of UBE2S expression in prostate cancer have not been elucidated.
Methods: Here, we performed bioinformatic analysis of public databases to reveal the expression of UBE2S in PCa and its association with Gleason score, tumor staging, biochemical recurrence, and survival.
Sirt1 Regulates Phenotypic Transformation of Diabetic Cardiac Fibroblasts through Akt/Α-SMA Pathway.
Curr Mol Pharmacol
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Affiliated People's Hospital of Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212000, Jiangsu, China.
Aims: Cardiac fibrosis causes most pathological alterations of cardiomyopathy in diabetes and heart failure patients. The activation and transformation of cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) are the main pathological mechanisms of cardiac fibrosis. It has been established that Sirtuin1 (Sirt1) plays a protective role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disorders.

Aims: We aimed to report our experience in using anakinra to treat specific neonatal inflammatory conditions.
