Published: February 2020

Abuse is associated with short and long term psychiatric consequences. There is a need to develop more culturally competent treatment, especially in the South Asian context. We present an account of our clinical experience with hospital-based therapeutic strategies that we found to be successful in a largely conservative, developing country.

Exosomal miR-552-5p Regulates the Role of NK Cells in EMT of Gastric Cancer via the PD-1/PD-L1 Axis.

J Cancer

January 2025

Department of Gastroenterology and Respiratory Internal Medicine & Endoscopy Center, Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital, Nanning, Guangxi 530021, P.R. China.

While previous studies have established the role of exosomal miR-552-5p in promoting gastric cancer (GC) progression, the exact mechanisms through which it modulates the PD-1/PD-L1 axis to affect NK cell function and subsequently influence GC epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) remain to be elucidated. Western blot, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and nanoparticle tracking analysis were used to characterize exosomes that were isolated from GC cell supernatants. Subcutaneous AGS cell injections expressing either Lv-miR-552-5p or Lv-NC were administered to nude BALB/C mice.

Power shapes power construal: the mediating role of entitlement.

Front Psychol

Department of Psychology and Cognitive Science, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China.

Introduction: This article investigates the effect of power on power construal through psychological entitlement as a mediator across three empirical studies ( = 895).

Methods: We examine how people in powerful and powerless conditions construe power, with psychological entitlement as a key mediator.

Results: We uncover a nuanced association whereby people in powerful conditions predominantly adopt socialized orientations to construe power, whereas in powerless conditions, people tend to construe power as a paradox.

Cell-based therapy, as a "living drug", possesses inherent complexity and heterogeneity. Tumorigenicity evaluation is a crucial aspect of safety assessment for cell-based therapies. Stem cell-based therapies such as hESCs and hiPSCs, may contain residual undifferentiated cells in final product, which have a high potential for proliferation and differentiation, posing a risk of tumor formation in vivo.

With the increase in international migration, the need for an equitable healthcare system in Canada is increasing. The current biomedical model of healthcare is constructed largely in the Eurocentric tradition of medicine, which often disregards the diverse health perspectives of Canada's racialized immigrant older adults. As a result, current healthcare approaches (adopted in the US and Canada) fall short in addressing the health needs of a considerable segment of the population, impeding their ability to access healthcare services.
