Objective: To determine the effect of JAK kinase inhibitor AG490 on proliferation and apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line C666-1 and explore the inhibitory effect of AG490 on STAT3 signal transduction pathway.
Study Design: An experimental study.
Place And Duration Of Study: Xi'an Ninth Hospital, Xi'an, China, from May 2015 to December 2016.
Methodology: AG490 was applied to C666-1 cells. Cell proliferation was detected by MTTassay. Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry. The expression of STAT3 and p-STAT3 protein was detected by immobilized Western blot.
Results: AG490 could effectively inhibit proliferation of C666-1 cellsin vitro, and the inhibitory effect was characterized by time and concentration dependence. AG490 induced apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells, and apoptosis rate increased with prolongation of the time. AG490 could inhibit expression of STAT3 and p-STAT3 protein in C666-1 cells.
Conclusion: AG490 can down-regulate expression of STAT3 and p-STAT3 protein in C666-1 cells, inhibit proliferation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and promote apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.

Background: Central venous access devices (CVAD) are widely used in patient care, providing an essential, reliable pathway for patients to receive chemotherapy, long-term infusions, and nutritional support. However, a system of exercise management has not been developed in patients with CVAD.
Purpose: To evaluate and summarize the evidence for management exercise in patients with CVAD and provide guidance for clinical practice.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) contributes to ~1.5% of human cancers, including lymphomas, gastric and nasopharyngeal carcinomas. In most of these, nearly 80 viral lytic genes are silenced by incompletely understood epigenetic mechanisms, precluding use of antiviral agents such as ganciclovir to treat the 200,000 EBV-associated cancers/year.

Background: The albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) is known to predict prognosis in liposarcoma patients, but its role in other tumors remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic relationship between ACR and common solid tumors.
Methods: Data from the Investigation on Nutrition Status and Clinical Outcome of Common Cancers (INSCOC) between 2013 and 2022 were used to analyze patients under 65 years old with solid tumors.
