Early screening of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Head &Neck, Volume 45, Issue 10, Page 2700-2709, October 2023., 2023
Abstract The low positive predictive value (PPV) of early screening of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is the problems that need to be solved urgently. The combination of cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) methylation testing and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) serological testing is the key to solve this problem.

Inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase restores hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in endotoxemic mice

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 1-8, October‐December 2020., 2020
Endotoxemia impairs hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction which leads to systemic hypoxemia. This derogation is attributable to increased activity of nitric oxide synthase 2 and arginase metabolism. Gene expression analysis has shown increased expression of ornithine decarboxylase in lungs of endotoxemic mice, a downstream enzyme of arginase metabolism ...

Uniaxial Static Strain Promotes Osteoblast Proliferation and Bone Matrix Formation in Distraction Osteogenesis In Vitro

BioMed Research International, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Objective. We aimed at investigating the effects of uniaxial static strain on osteoblasts in distraction osteogenesis (DO). Methods. To simulate the mechanical stimulation of osteoblasts during DO, 10% uniaxial static strain was applied to osteoblasts using a homemade multiunit cell stretching and compressing device.
