Dendritic cells play a pivotal role in host immune defense, such as elimination of foreign pathogen and inhibition tumorigenesis. In this paper, we report that [Gd@C82(OH)22]n could induce phenotypic maturation dendritic by stimulating DC production cytokines including IL-12p70, upregulating co-stimulatory (CD80, CD83, CD86) MHC (HLA-A,B,C HLA-DR) molecules, switching DCs from CCL5-responsive to CCL19-responsive phenotype. We found can become functionally mature illustrated their capacity...

Colorectal cancer, a leading cause of cancer death, has been linked to inflammation and obesity. Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid, possesses anti‐inflammatory, anti‐diabetes anti‐tumor properties. In the azoxymethane initiated dextran sulfate sodium (AOM/DSS) promoted colorectal carcinogenesis mouse model, berberine treated mice showed 60% reduction in tumor number ( P = 0.009), 48% tumors <2 mm, 0.05); 94% 2–4 0.001), 100% >4 mm 0.02) compared vehicle mice. Berberine also decreased...

To investigate the role of Wnt–β-catenin signaling in bone remodeling, we analyzed phenotype female Axin2-lacZ knockout (KO) mice. We found that trabecular mass was significantly increased 6- and 12-month-old Axin2 KO mice formation rates were also 6-month-old compared with wild-type (WT) littermates. In vitro studies performed using marrow stromal (BMS) cells isolated from WT Osteoblast proliferation differentiation osteoclast reduced Nuclear β-catenin protein levels BMS derived deletion...

In chondrocytes, PTHrP maintains them in a proliferative state and prevents premature hypertrophy. The mechanism by which does this is not fully understood. Both Runx2 Runx3 are required for chondrocyte maturation. We recently demonstrated that cyclin D1 induces protein phosphorylation degradation. the present studies, we tested hypothesis regulates both stability through D1. analyzed effects of on function using COS cells, osteoprogenitor C3H10T1/2 cells chondrogenic RCJ3.1C5.18 cells....

Abstract Purpose: NAT10 (N-acetyltransferase 10) is a nucleolar protein, but may show subcellular redistribution in colorectal carcinoma. In this study, we evaluated membranous staining of carcinoma and its clinical implications, explored the mechanism regulation redistribution. Experimental Design: The expression NAT10, β-catenin, E-cadherin, GSK-3β were by immunohistochemistry 222 cases Regulation influence on cell motility analyzed with inhibitors GSK-3β, transfection wild-type or...

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) play an important role in cancer initiation, relapse and metastasis. To date, no specific medicine has been found to target CSCs as they are resistant most conventional therapies proliferate indefinitely. Compound Kushen Injection (CKI) widely used for patients with remarkable therapeutic effects Chinese clinical settings many years. This study focused on whether CKI could inhibit MCF-7 SP vitro vivo.The analysis of population the main genes Wnt signaling pathway...

Background: Bone cancer pain is currently a major clinical challenge for the management of patients, and cellular molecular mechanisms underlying spinal sensitization remain unclear. While several studies demonstrated critical role proteinase-activated receptor (PAR2) in pathogenesis types inflammatory or neuropathic pain, involvement PAR2 pertinent signaling central not determined yet rodent model bone pain. Findings: Implantation tumor cells into tibias induced significant thermal...

Chinese cancer patients often use Traditional Medicine (TCM) herbal medicine during or after active treatments. However, little is known about how TCM impacts outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the association between therapy and survival outcomes in with stage II III colorectal cancer.We conducted an eight-center prospective cohort China among who had undergone radical resection for cancer. All received comprehensive conventional treatments according National Comprehensive Cancer...

Increasing evidence suggests that the failure of lung cancer treatment may occur as a result tumor invasion and metastasis. Signal transducer activator transcription 3 (STAT3), an epithelial-mesenchymal transition-inducing factor, is key signaling molecule involved in proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis cells.
